When i change password on a site, Firefox is pulling up and inserting my old stored password and failing to permit password changes. how do i turn this feature off?

i put in the new password, but when i push enter to accept new password changes, the old number of digits (blanked out) appears and the prompt "do i want firefox to remember the new password" appears. i want firefox to forget the old password and let me change it and quit inserting anything i don't ask for each time.

Click the Firefox button, go to Options | Options | Security | Saved Passwords (button) | Show Passwords (button) and remove the old password in there.

  • When I open Numbers it displays every spreadsheet I've ever worked on. I have 100 windows displaying spreadsheets. What am I doing wrong? How to I turn this feature off?

    When I open Numbers it displays every spreadsheet I have evr worked on! The screen fills with 100 windows showing different spreadsheets. How do I turn this feature off?

    As Jerry said, if you close all documents before quitting Numbers or Pages, you won't have them reopening when you launch the app again. If you don't want to have to close everything first try Lion Tweaks or the latest version of TinkerTool. Both have the option to turn off the resume feature for individual applications.

  • When I receive mail my OSX opens up the attachments, they can be either PDF or Jpeg how do I tern this feature off and just have them show as icons

    When I receive mail my OSX opens up the attachments, they can be either PDF or JPEG how do I turn this feature off and just have them show as icons
    Thanks

    There is a plugin available for Mail called Attachment Tamer, which allows much greater control over the way Mail handles attachments, among other things. Icon view is one of them.

    I believe you can run it in demo mode before purchasing to see if it does what you want.

  • When I adjust the duration of a clip or transaction, iMovie automatically adjusts the duration of another clip; how can I shut this feature off?

    In iMovie when I adjust the duration of a photo clip or transaction, iMovie automatically changes the duration of another clip; how can I shut this feature off?

    Ok, well you won't get a "speed scale" indicator when editing a title clip. You can only adjust duration. Now, is there music attached to the title clip? Are you adjusting the TITLE TEXT box ONLY? Try adjusting the clip BELOW Title Text box 1st, then Title Text clip.  Is the Title attached to your own video OR is it one of iMovie's default Titles??

  • When I sync with my iphone i get an error reporting message but the sync still works.  After trying to download 10.6.3 Mac OSX Snow Leopard, this message appears every few seconds until I quit Entourage.  How do I turn this message off?.

    Question: 
    When I sync with my iphone I get an error reporting message but the sync still works.  After trying to download 10.6.3 Mac OSX Snow Leopard, this message appears every few seconds as long as Entourage is open.  This continues until I quit Entourage.  How do I turn this message off? It interferes with any other work I am doing.   I appreciate any suggestions.

    I only have one video project that I ever published to iDisk. It didn't have any music or photo files attatched to it, just a few clips stitched together. I can play these clips right now in the Event Library (so I know the source files are on my computer), but strangely, under the Project Library, the project is not there. I'm almost certain that I didn't store the project on iDisk; I just completed the video and published it to iDisk (as a .mov file I think) for family to see. I've tried to figure out how to get iDisk to stop looking for this project to no avail.
    I don't know if others have experienced this, but if I click on any project and on the menu bar select Share --> Remove From --> Media Browser... it lists iPod, iPhone, iPad, tv, Computer and MobileMe. Why would MobileMe be an option here? This is the case for any video project I select. Didn't iLife '11 and/or OSX 10.8 remove all mention of MobileMe? I wonder if this is part of the problem too.
    Edit: I just removed every project I have from the Media Browser. Still no luck.

  • In Yosemite, I can;t operate for more than a few minutes with Keychain or Safari asking for my login password.  How can I turn this off, and still be safe?

    Using Yosemite, I an't seem to work for more than a few minutes without being asked for my login password.  Keychain wants it, Safari wants it, iCloud wants it..the list goes on.  Then in 10 minutes or so, they all want it again.  Passwords are being stored by Safari as usual, but new tabs or pages bring up the request.  How can I turn this off and still have protection?

    Tutorial: Resolving Keychain Issues
    If you can't access your keychain, or forget your password If you can't get into your keychain file because you've forgotten your password or the keychain file appears to be corrupt, there are a couple of options.
    First, if you've forgotten your password, you can use the "Keychain First Aid" utility to make the keychain password the same as the login password. This can be accomplished via the following process:
      1. Open Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
      2. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Preferences"
      3. Click the "First Aid" tab
      4. Make sure the "Synchronize login keychain password" box is checked
      5. Close the Preferences window
      6. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Keychain First Aid"
      7. Enter your username and password
      8. Click the "Repair" button
    The second option is to completely delete your keychain then recreate it. This routine is useful if your keychain appears to be corrupt or otherwise inaccessible. This can be accomplished as follows:
      1. Launch Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
      2. Click "Show Keychains" in the lower-left corner of the window.
      3. Select the problematic keychain from the left-hand pane.
      4. Navigate to the "File" menu and select "Delete Keychain '(name of keychain)'"
      5. Check all options for deletion and press "OK"
      6. Create a new keychain by going to the "File" menu, then "New" and selecting
          "New Keychain"
      7. You can now make this keychain your default if you desire by selecting it, then
          going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make '(name of keychain)' Default"
    Login as root and perform repair In some cases, problems with keychains can only be resolved when logged in as the root user.
    First, you want to enable the root user:
      1. OS X Mountain Lion: Enable and disable the root user
      2. OS X Lion: Enable and disable the root user
      3. Mac OS X 10.6: Enabling the root user
      4. Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X
    After enabling the root user, and logging in under this account, again open Keychain Access. First attempt repairs using Keychain First Aid, and failing that, delete then recreate the keychain as described above while logged in as root.
    Persistently asked for stored passwords If you are persistently asked for passwords in various applications that you have specified should be remembered in a keychain, your "login" keychain may not be active for one reason or another.
    Navigate to ~/Library/Keychains/ (this is the Library folder inside your user's home folder). Find the file named "login.keychain" and double-click it.
    Failing that, select the "login" keychain within the Keychain Access application and make sure it is the default keychain by going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make 'Login' Default"
    Turn off Keychain synchronization in applications having problems If specific applications are experiencing issues when accessing password-protected material, the Keychain may be to blame.
    The above comes from an article published on MacFixit.com.

  • Firefox ignores synthetic Key-clicks. Is there a way to turn this feature off

    Hi,
    I want to send synthetic key presses to Firefox in Xubuntu using "xdotool key "f11" or something similar. However, firefox ignores all synthetic keys when it is running. Is there a way to turn that feature off?
    I have looking through About:config but did not see anything that would help.
    Thank you.

    Hello AshCox,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    You can use information from the following article:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    Specifically from the section "If you aren't receiving iMessages across all iOS devices". #2 says "Go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive>You Can Be Reached by iMessage At and make sure that you select each phone number and email address you want to use with iMessage." This same thing works in reverse, if you are receiving iMessages on a device and you don't want to, just unselect the phone number and email address you no longer want to use. 
    Regards,
    Jeff D. 

  • My iMac plays background music even when I am watching a movie on Netflix, how do I turn this music off?

    My iMac plays background music when I am using Safari.  Right now, as I am typing this message, it is playing background music.  When I am watching a movie on Netflix, it plays background music which interferes with the movie.  How do I turn this off?

    So pause iTunes or whatever application you are using for background music, before starting the movie.

  • I installed 4Sync on my computer, and it resets my browser constantly. Even when I set my browser back to FireFox Start Page it just switches it back the next time I open a browser. How can I stop this please??

    I installed 4Sync when I was trying to find a download for a song and it has hijacked my browser completely. It always tries to set my default home page back to the 4Sync Homepage, but I do not want this. I even change it back and save the settings, but it just comes back and does it again in a few clicks. I feel like it has completely taken over Firefox and that it will always be my start page now, instead of the Firefox Google search page I normally use. I need to stop this because it is frustrating me. There is no new plugins or extensions installed on my browser, I just don't get it. Any answers would be greatly appreciated!!

    Same issue for me, no settings or options config changes this
    I also tried a roll back to 3.16 and the problem is there too now, so its something in the general mozilla files
    dont fancy a full uninstall and delete of anything mozilla, but i wont be using this if it continues

  • When i upgraded to Lion, it deleted my main user account and only left my guest account, how can i fix this?

    My main user account was deleted, and only my guest account remained. I don't know my password for the guest account anymore, so i couldn't log in, i had to use my time machine to restore to the day before when i was on 10.6.7. How do i fix this?

    I've stumbled upon the solution to get back into our machines.
    At the login screen, when presented with 'guest account' only, do the following:
    tap enter while holding down 'control' + 'option' + 'command'
    ...you should be reunited with your usual login personalities.
    Happy days!

  • Why when I am resizing a field do the fields above and below resize too? Can I turn this feature off?

    Why when I am resizing a field do the field above and below resize with it too? I need to make them different lengths. This only happens sometimes. HELP! THANKS!

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Sometimes when I roll the cursor across a bookmark, my browser jumps to that web page without me clicking on it. Is there any way to turn this function off?

    On occasion I will roll my cursor across a bookmark and my browser will take me to that web page without me clicking on it. I've been unable to detect a pattern; it seems to happen randomly. Can someone explain why this is happening? Am I doing something wrong? Is there a setting I can change to prevent this from happening? And if so, can I be given instructions how to do that?

    this should not be happening, maybe one of your addons is interfering?! - can you try running firefox in safemode or with all extensions disabled for a while and see if this behaviour is still there...

  • When I send an email, I get a pop up that says "unable to save a copy to the sent mail box". How do I enable this feature?

    This doesn't happen all the time. It seems to occur when I send an email from a webpage, not directly from my Thunderbird account.

    Please note that Thunderbird is not an email service. Thunderbird is the program that can be used to read mail.
    The email provider, is the part of your email address that comes after the "@" symbol. Can you please post that. (Do not post your entire email address, for privacy reasons).
