Why aren't my logged-in sessions sustained on certain forums?

I belong to a large list of auto enthusiast sites, and recently several of them have started required me to log in each time I access the site, even though I always check boxes like "Remember me each time I visit" when I log in.
It can't be a cookie problem. I have cookies that are several years old on this MacBook Pro, transferred over from my previous Powerbook G4, which were in turn transferred from my old Quicksilver desktop. I always keep cookies off until I need to log in to a site, and when I am firmly established there I turn the cookies off again. Its been working that way for me for years and until now I was never asked to log in - my sessions always persisted.
The problem started with a phpBB- based system about two months ago, after they upgraded their software. Then it spread to another phpBB forum.. Next, a vBulletin system started requiring log-ins each time I went there, and now its happening at another vBulletin site.
I thought it was a phpBB problem until it happened on those two vBulletin sites. Its nothing that I can't get around simply by logging back in, but I'd like my sessions to persist indefinitely like the scores of other sites I'm on.
What is going on here?

Hi Chuck, Welcome to Apple's Users Help Users Forums.
I suspect it depends on the site set up and not your system.
If I quit Safari then Apple Forums make me login but Broadband Reports and MacFixit do not. I saved AFs in my Keychain so it's just click the blue button.

  • Why aren't crash logs stored?

    Recently, I noticed crash logs aren't in Library>Logs>Diagnostic Reports - they used to be.
    Is anyone able to help? I'm using Mac 10.7.5.
    Thanks.

    I can seem them if I look in 'Console' (in 'Utilities') - also the file itself if I 'Reveal in Finder'. Doing the latter shows the 'Library' folder is hidden.
    However, I can't see the logs if I use Finder directly to go to Diagnostic Reports. I also tried 'defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE' in Terminal and relaunched 'Finder'.

  • Why aren't I allowed to post in the iPad Forum?

    I was allowed to post in the iPhone forum but now I'm told that I'm not allowed to post in the iPad forum! What is going on here?
    EDIT.
    Disregard; I went back and tried for the 5th or 6th time and it seems to have posted. Jive software must being acting up again!

    The forum likes to log me out for no reason just before replying to posts...I'm logged in, I click on the reply button, then BAM! I'm logged out. Happens many times in a row as well within the same session. It's quite maddening.
    This could be what's happening with the OP.

  • Why aren't adapter errors visible in SXMB_MONI?

    My client has an integration scenario that updates an Oracle database through a JDBC receiver channel.  Occasionally an insert/update statement will fail.  The adapter engine logs the Oracle error message, but that error message doesn’t show up in SXMB_MONI.   SXMB_MONI happily displays the checkered flag.  You can only see the adapter error in runtime workbench. 
    Why aren’t adapter errors “visible” in SXMB_MONI?

    You can't propagate an error which occurs in a later point of the pipeline to a previous point.
    They error may occurr in the adapter, but when the message gets to the AE, the Integration Engine pipeline is already complete.
    But you know, the later point can carry on errors occurred at a earlier point. That is why you can see the Integration Engine errors in the Messsage Monitoring.
    It is a matter of culture. SAP consultants, in general, are more confortable with ABAP stack (SXMB_MONI) than with Java Stack (Message Monitoring). But, in this case, the Java tool is more complete.

  • Terminal Server Session Management: why do we need a rdp session to take control of a terminal session?

    Hi all,
    As title, I have this question: why do we need a rdp session to take remote control of a terminal server session?
    I copied tsadmin and related file to a windows 8.1 pc and I'm able to see for every terminal server the list of users logged in, but the option "take control" is greyed out... why? is not possible to avoid this block?
    Thanks in advance
    Davide

    Hello, Davide_ita.
    Also tried to use RDSM to "Remote Control" user's sessions, but in this thread
    Remote Control
    with Remote Desktop Services Manager - error Access is denied (Windows Server 2012 R2)
    I get the recommendation to use RDP or Remote Assistance.
    The quote of
    TP []:
    Hi,
    You cannot remote control a session on a 2012 R2 RDSH server using Remote Desktop Services Manager.  You need to use the RDP 8.1 mstsc.exe or the RDS gui in Server Manager on 2012 R2.  The command you would use with the RDP 8.1 client would be
    this:
    mstsc /shadow:<sessionid> /control
    -TP

  • Why size of archive log file increasing in merge clause

    my database is running in archive log mode.
    someone is running oracle merge statement. still it is running.
    He will issue commit after the operation.
    in that period redolog file increasing now.
    my question is why size of archive log file increasing with redolog file.
    i know that after commit archive log file should generate.(may be it is wrong).
    please suggest........

    i know that after commit archive log file should generate.(may be it is wrong). No this is not correct that after commit archive log will generate....You know merge statement causes the insert (if data not present already) or update if database is present.. Obviously these operation will generate lots of redo if the amount of data been processed is high.
    If you feel that this operation is causing excessive of redo then root cause analysis should be done...
    For that use Logminer (excellent tool to provide segment level breakdown of redo size). V$logmnr_contens has columns redo block and redo byte address associated with the current redo
    change
    There are some gudlines in order to reduce redos( which may vary in any environment)
    1) check if there are unwanted indexes being used in tables which are refereed in merge. If yes then remove those could bring down the redo
    2) Use global temporary tables to reduce redo (if there is a need to keep data only temporarily in a session)
    3) Use nologging if possible (but see its implications)
    Hope this helps

  • Why aren't all of my recent purchases showing up on my "purchased" tab on iphone 4S?

    Why aren't all of my recent purchases showing up on my "purchased" tab on iphone 4S? I downloaded an album and I can't seem to get songs 2 and 4 although they are on my computer. I could probably connect my iphone to sync, but I'm wondering why they aren't transferring via iCloud.
    Thanks!

        Dear Sduncan87,
    Good afternoon. Ensuring your text messges are being logged correctly is important. I am happy to see you were able to determine they were iMessages. Unfortunately, there is not a way to track iMessages. However, if you find the iMessage user and you need to block them. Apple now gives you the ability to block iMessage users. To block iMessages Tap: Settings > Notifications > Messages > Scroll down to show iMessage alerts from, “My contacts only” >  Should you have further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us. Have a great day!

  • Where are the diagnostic reports, or why aren't there any?

    Hello
    I understand that under mavericks, diagnostic reports are supposed to be found either in
    /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/ (System Diagnostic Reports),
    or in 
    ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports (User Diagnostic Reports).
    Unfortunately, even after a number of crashes, they aren't. While in my case, the system DiagnosticReports folder exists, but contains nothing but powerstats, in the user library, not even the folder is there.
    So, either they are elsewhere, or they aren't being generated. In the first case, my question would be: Where are the diagnostic reports? In the latter, it would be: Why aren't there any (despite the system crashes)?
    (A similar question is to be found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24773940#24773940 , but ended with an open question. I'm starting a new thread, because this old one is marked as answered.)
    Thanks a lot.

  • Please help. Why aren't my hyperlinks moving over from one document to another?

    Firstly I'm using Adobe InDesign 5.5
    I have document A, which has over 50 pages.
    Then document B, with over 40 pages.
    All the pages on document B, I want to 'move' over to document A, so document A will now have 90 pages and I'll no longer need document B. The issue is, when I move the pages over, the hyperlinks I have throughout document B don't move over (which there are over 30 hyperlinks on certain sections of certain pages).
    Now it seems like the only 'slow/safe' process of doing this, is to copy page 1&2 of Document B, and then 'paste in place' on document A, and then go back to B and copy pages 3&4. this is a long process...considering I have over 2,500 pages to get through.
    Why aren't the hyperlinks moving over? When I go back to document A, I click on the hyperlink tab and it's blank.
    It's really annoying and I'm trying to figure out why this is even happening and can't find any solution online.

    You should save both documents before doing that with Save as into the same folder, so thel links will not change.
    I would recommend to package your files after doing that.

  • Why aren't Calendar categories colored in month view

    On the iPhone 5S under iOS 7.0.4 in the Calendar app, in the month view, existting daily events are indicated by gray dots.  Why aren't these dots colored according to the event category?  My recollection is that used to be the case prior to iOS 7.0.  In day or week view, the time or full day are showing the respective category color.  And on the iPad Air, under iOS 7.0.4, the calendar month view DOES show the category color in the dot! Did Apple forget about this functionality?  I can see there is an event, but not the categories I used (medical, travel, etc).

    Comparing this functionality between a larger format such as the iPad and the smaller format on the iPhone is a little like apples and oranges. The iPad in Month view has enough space on each day to show discrete entries - and can consequently show them in their respective calendar colors.On the Phone, it only has space to indicate that one or more events exist (represented by a single dot). If you have more than one event, in different categories, which category color should it display?

  • Why aren't my songs previously playable on my iPad/iPhone (tho not purchased directly from iTunes) no longer playable on my devices?

    Why aren't my songs previously accessible on my I/Pad 2/iPhone 4s devices in "Music" appearing in faint print &amp; graphics no longer accessible?  I had downloaded them into iTunes on my PC and previously synced them.  Suddenly after recent syncing they were inaccessible.  Why?  (I previously downloaded an IOS_5 platform to my PC to use iCloud.  Was working until recently.)

    I too am having this problem. Its really frustrating. In fact i have my setting to have all music on my phone however the phone displays I have 2986 and the itunes reads 2987. I'm one off on this area. In addition some of my purchased music does not show in my purchased list on the phone. It does show on the itunes account on the computer and in the overall albums just not in the purchased. I drug the purchased song from the albums to the purchased playlist and tried to have it re-sync... did not work.. I tryed re-booting the phone, and restoring from back up all failed.
    Another problem I have found since the IOS7 updates is the phone doesn't keep my music where it was when I get out of my car. I used to love that I would get out of the car in the middle of my playlist go in the store come out and it would pick up right where it left off. Now I get back in the car and it begins playing random music of all my entire library. I love all my music however I don't want to listen to Christmas and Halloween music all the time. I don't want to remove these from the phone as I want them always available. I just want the function to go back to how it was.
    Oh and the last thing, sometimes when I turn my phone sideways and am listening to music the collage of albums shows but freezes so I cant turn the phone back and change the music. I like having the capablility of turning the phone to see pictures and things auto turn but not this collage of albums if it's gonna delay me swictching or skipping songs.
    Any ideas for these issues? Is apple aware and working on these?

  • Why aren't apple doing something to sort out the facetime app for mac

    Why aren't apple doing something to sort this out, there is obviously something wrong as so many people seem to be having the same or very similar problems, I was about to buy the facetime app for my mac but not sure I should now
    Come on apple, no use sticking your head in the sand, get it sorted.
    After all, you are quite happy to take peoples money for your app, the least you can do is to ensure it works.

    Backing up and restoring is not the same as downgrading.
    Apple have stopped signing 5.1.1 which is why you can't downgrade.

  • Why aren't my album, album artist, or artwork changes appearing on my iPhone or iPad?

    Fair warning, I'm pretty sure I have a mild form of OCD. I really like to organize my iTunes library the way I like it. Unfortunately the newer updates to the program have seriously hampered my ability to keep things looking the way I like.
    That leads me to my question.
    Why aren't the changes I'm making in iTunes appearing on my iPhone or iPad after I've sync'd them?
    I spend a lot of time combining albums and matching their artwork, i.e. I've combined a lot of the Glee singles into several albums, but all of the work goes away once I've put the music onto any of my iOS devices.
    I've changed the sorting options for everything and turned off my iTunes Match. I've made sure none of them are registered as compilations, but nothing has worked. They all look exactly how I want on my computer then separate into a million pieces on my iPhone and iPad.
    If anyone has any insight into this, I would really appreciate it. I'm really close to pulling all of my hair out.

    I had the same problem time ago but i discovery that not all songs are on itunes store so i did somethinbg easy, go find the songs you want on youtube or somwehere else then make a copy of that album then cut the image of album save into ur computer then go itunes select the song you want to add the albu, atwork go to the album at work tab then add the image you took it before and sync your ipad you will see the album at work in ur ipad, that is what i did and works for me.
    Regards

  • Why aren't apps like weather, stocks, etc. on my new iPad? Also, It's curious that Siri wasn't included with ios5... Shouldn't an iPad 2 with the A5 be able to handle it?

    Why aren't apps like weather, stocks, etc. on my new iPad? Also, It's curious that Siri wasn't included with ios5... Shouldn't an iPad 2 with the A5 be able to handle it?

    Next time an app update gets stuck try a reset. Press and hold both the home and power buttons for10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. Wait till your iPad starts on it's own. Try now. Also YouTube is still available. If you can't find it the the app store go to the bottom of the app store page and tap purchased. All your deleted apps will be listed and you can reinstall YouTube from there.
