When i try to clear history, i press clear now, then ok, and it doesn't get cleared.

i went into tools-options-advanced-network and pressed 'clear now' then 'ok'. how do i know if all the cookies are gone? are my saved tabs supposed to be cleared as well?
thank you

Instead use
* Tools -> Clear Recent history
* see [[Clear Recent History]]
That gives you several options to choose from. For more info on cookies see [[cookies|this]] and the links included in that page.

  • When I try to clean history, adobe 6 pops up, then I get a pop up that says quicktime failed to initialize, sometimes that happens 6 to 8 times before it stops

    I have put on quicktime (although) Im not sure what that has to do with cleaning history. Got any ideas or help?

    This may be the right answer. However, there is one problem I need to work through first with the Restore before I can go back and rename the folders. The files I backed up from the old computer originated from two drives: C and an external hard drive and were backed up to another place on the ext HD. When I Restored the backup, Adobe PSE 8 copied all the files to the Adobe folder as requested. However, the Organizer looks on the ext HD for the files/folders that originated on the ext HD, instead of the C where I want it to look. (I chose the copy to new location option without preserving file structure.) I didn't realize this at first, so I have probably been making changes to files on the ext HD.
    Does anyone know why this happened or an easy way to fix it? Otherwise, I will have to go back and manually reconnect all of these files/folders to the C drive.

  • Firefox 4 freezes when I try to clear 1 hour of history. Why?

    WinXP SP3, Firefox 4.0.1
    When I try to clear the last hour of History, Firefox freezes and will not respond no matter how long I wait for it. Before Firefox 4, it might take as along as two minutes. Back in version 3.6, it only took a few seconds.

    Can be caused by clearing the cookies via [[Clear Recent History]].<br />
    You can try to exclude the cookies to see if that helps.
    Firefox also tries to clear the cookies from plugins like Flash and starts a plugin-container process with the Flash player and possibly other plugins as well for each cookie, so that can add extra time if there are a lot of cookies to remove.

  • My keyboard loses functionality when I try to leave comments on Facebook. Delete, backspace, apostrophe and cut, copy and paste are disabled.

    My keyboard loses functionality when I try to leave comments on Facebook.
    Delete, backspace, apostrophe and cut, copy and paste are disabled. This only happens in comments, no functionality is lost in messaging or status updates.
    I have disabled all my add-ons and restarted Firefox and the issue persists. I have updated add-ons, restarted Firefox and the issue persists.
    I have updated Firefox and that made no difference.
    I have cleared cookies and cache and still no luck.
    SOLUTION: I disabled the Grammarly Lite add-on and this seems to have resolved the issue.
    I have informed Facebook of the issue. I cannot find any information about this problem in Facebook's troubleshooting.
    I cannot replicate this issue in Internet Explorer. All the functions work fine.
    I have the same issue on a different device that runs Windows 7 Starter and on a laptop that runs Windows 8.1.

  • I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

    I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

    I could do that, however when I select the icloud button (or whatever the heck it is) I am asked to enter the apple id and password. So if you are suppose to create another one for icloud you'd think it would give you the option at this point which would be logical.

    Disable your firewall/security software, then try again.

    I have a windows 7 64x SP1.
    Every time I install iTunes 12 I get this message when I try to open it:"This copy of iTunes is damaged and it has not been correctly installed. Please, install iTunes again.(-42404)".
    The instalation process runs smoothly without any error message and iTunes has been installed in my computer before. The problem started with the update no. 12. Any idea what's going on? Thank you

    if itunes will not run, you probably have mangled windows badly
    one feature of windows 8 is the refresh that saves libraries,
    because you are using windows 7, you will need to backup all files to another storage device

  • HT201210 my iphone says it needs to be restored but when i try to restore it it says it cant be restored and theres an unkown error

    My iphone says it needs to be restored but when i try to restor it it says it cant be restored and it has an unknown error

    Hi folks, just yesterday i can restore my iphone 4 that have a problem when i restore from itunes, when i do the restore from itnes, always showed me the following error:
    01:41:37.0017] Depth:0 Error:AMRestorePerformRestoreModeRestoreWithError failed with error: -1
    [01:41:37.0017]    Depth:1 Error:The operation couldn\U2019t be completed. (AMRestoreErrorDomain error -1 - Failed to handle message type StatusMsg)
    [01:41:37.0017]       Depth:2 Error:The operation couldn\U2019t be completed. (AMRestoreErrorDomain error -1 - failed to update device firmware)
    [01:41:37.0017]          Depth:3 Error:The operation couldn\U2019t be completed. (AMRestoreErrorDomain error -1 - ramrod firmware update failed)
    [01:41:37.0017]             Depth:4 Error:The operation couldn\U2019t be completed. (RamrodErrorDomain error 1004 - update_baseband: failed to perform next stage)

    [01:41:37.0017]           - kBBUReturnTimedOut(8)/16: Pinging timed out
    what I did was this: just when I will finish the process, when the status bar is at the end in the firmware, only put the sim card and go back to take out, I do this like 4 or 5 times and the process restoration ends so well. This method I tried it 2 times and 2 times worked. I spent like 10 hours trying to restore iphone without results, until I started watching the logs and the key is when you are upgrading the firmware sends a command to answer yes. And I hope this helps.
    This is the line of the log that appears and when the restoration is correct:
    amai: AMAuthInstallBasebandHandleUpdaterStatus: commandAccepted: YES

    AppleWorks is a very old application and requires Rosetta to run under recent systems.
    Lion does not include Rosetta.

  • I have a macbook pro 15" Retina Display with 2.6 ghz and 8gb of ram yet when i try to download a HD movie from itunes it says my computer doesn't support HD?

    i have a macbook pro 15" retina Display with 2.6 ghz and 8gb of ram when i try to download an HD movie from itunes it says my computer doesn't support HD? i went to the support on the apple website and looked at the specs that a computer has to meet in order to play HD movies and mine is well above them. Why can't i play the movies?

    That would at least partially explain it.
    These MacBook Pros drew more power than the power brick could readily supply, and so would only run at top speed when the power brick was supplemented by the battery.
    Though the applicable tech note has been removed, it stated:
    "If the battery is removed from a MacBook or MacBook Pro, the computer will automatically reduce the processor speed. This prevents the computer from shutting down if it demands more power than the A/C adapter alone can provide."

    No, you cannot downgrade your iOS device. That's not supported by Apple.
