Why do I have to clear cookies every 3 days because YOUR Firefox is screwed? Do I need to go back to Explorer again?

I'll try to open a news page and get an error message
Sorry, Bad Request.
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.

According to your forum, I need to clear cookies. It works, but I then have to reload passwords and settings, and repeat the whole thing 3 days later? if Firefox isn't going to fix the problem, just tell me and I'll stop using it completely.

You may have security or cleanup software that messes with files in the Firefox Profile Folder is the cookies get corrupted.

  • Why do we have to change passwords every time we do something on the iPad?

    WHy do we have to reset passwords every time we do something on iPad?

    You shouldn't have to. It sounds like you may have content on the device associated with more than one apple id. If that's the case then, you may be entering a password for one account when you should be entering another.
    I would suggest using only one apple id username on the device and delete any content associated with another.

  • HT1918 why do i have to create a new itunes account because I moved to Canada from the U.S.?

    why do i have to create a new itunes account because I moved to Canada from the U.S.?( My current account won't let me change my address to canada so my billing address for account is incorrect, making it impossible for me to buy anything). Will it affect what I am able to put on my device i.e. already downloaded apps, music, etc?

    Ever since I received my Macbook Pro in July 2011 I've had issues with my wireless connection at home.  After software updates, Apple support suggested I reboot my router which works.  But now I have to do it every other day.  ????  AT&T my DSL carrier suggests I get a new router.  Apparently the one I have is really old and doesn't support my Macbook Pro.  Does this sound right?

    If your using WEP encryption yes, Apple has discontinued that becaues it's worthless. WEP (and WPA) is cracked so encryption makes no sense.
    Get a new Wireless N router, set it up with WPA2 (AES) Personal and two different 20+ randon letter/numbersymbol character passwords
    One for Admin access only of the router, keep this on paper off all comptuers in a safe someplace.
    One for entering into devices, computers etc for Internet Access Only.
    You need the long and random password to defeat brute force attacks by GPU software that the hackers have now.
    Also if you give out the password to another, they can't hack the network with the guest access password.
    Computers remember the internet password, so anyone with access to your machines or network will have the password.
    Since you have another Admin only password, they can't hack in. got it?
    You don't need "Invisible" or "MAC Address filtering" that's a waste of time as hackers can sniff a network and causes issues getting on the network.
    Good luck.

  • You have created a link to another part of your book but how do you get the reader back to the original page?

    Using iBooks Author to make a book you have created a link to another part of your book but how do you get the reader back to the original page?

    Asking me to be verbore is a dangerous thing  :-)
    When you eneter information into iTunes Producer for uploading, the info must match what is in the internal metadata. In this case, the book is called Mississippi, but in  iTunes Producer it is spelled Misssissippi. There is an extra "s". This will cause an error.

  • Why do I have to sign in every time i want to read

    Why do I have to sign into iBooks  every time I want to read, especially if I'm in the middle of a book.

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.

  • I play games that require I use the back arrow a lot and have been getting the mesage that says this server is rerouting in such a way that it will never complete. How do I fix this, have tried clearing cookies cache etc..

    Play zynga games and use the back arrow all the time, continuously using this doesnt seem to go well with firefox 4...firefox3.6 no problems. I get a none responsive page off and on and sometimes have to switch between firefox and chrome. The message is that the server is rerouting in such a way as it will never complete, suggestions have been to clear cookies etc which doesnt fix the problem.

  • Cookies every few days makes a *.bak file and starts anew (win7-64 with FF33)

    Upgraded from FF5.1 to FF33. Only problem was black screen, fixed with hardware switch. Cookies are somehow storing a backup file every few days, and starting new file. Checked cookie settings and same as used in FF5.1
    Last night hand purged about 2/3 of cookie file using FF33. File size didn't change (about 1534K)
    Manually restored cookie BAK file twice, without problem.

    Do you have security software or cleanup software that might be causing this and is cleaning out the cookies?
    It is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies got corrupted.
    *Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookies files like <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

  • Why can I only download one song every 90 days?

    Everytime I try to download a song from my purchased it says one song every 90 days!

    Hello, bridgeted. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like your computer has been associated with another Apple ID in the past 90 days.  Here is some information regarding this process. 
    When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID. Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it, with a maxium of 5 computers at any time. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days. You can view which devices or computers are currently associated with your Apple ID, remove unused devices or computers, and view how many days remain before the devices or computers can be associated with a different Apple ID from the Account Information page in iTunes on your computer:

  • Have to reinstall Tiger every 14 days

    Hello all,
    I have noticed that the last four months, I have had to reinstall Tiger every 14 days on my PowerBook, on the dot. I have had multiple problems that have caused me to reinstall, such as apps not launching, apps crashing, and kernel panics. Does anyone have any suggestions? I believe that a hardware failure may be imminent, but I don't know which component is failing, so I cannot replace it. Here are my kernel panics: http://pastebin.ca/582463
    Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for everyone's prompt replies. I tried running TechTool Deluxe last night, and it quit halfway through the process, while testing the Hard Disk. I am not sure if this means there is also a problem with the hard disk (it quit during the surface scan), or if it quit because of faulty RAM. I keep an "emergency boot drive" on this machine, that seems to remain unaffected by this issue, but is running an earlier version of OS X.4 (It's running X.4.0, while my main partition runs the latest). The issue will go away for about 14 days, then the issues will return forcing me to do a complete reinstall on my main partition. My PowerBook is my only computer, so I need it to work 99% of the time, without having to reinstall software every 14 days.
    I do not have any official training in repairing Apple notebooks, or Apple desktops, but I have repaired more than my fair share of Macs and PCs, including this PowerBook (I replaced the optical drive and hard disk in this machine).
    Also, is there any way of getting MemTest for free? I would prefer to not have to pay for an app I'll only use once or twice...
    Also, does anyone have any suggestions of where I can get quality RAM for this machine? The RAM upgrade I purchased about 2 years back has obviously failed, so I won't be buying any more of that brand of RAM. I am looking at replacing that 512 MB stick with a 1 GB stick.
    I should also mention that Activity Monitor sees the RAM size as constantly changing (for example, it will be at 768 MB for a while, then it will go down to 767.9, then back up to 768, and continue changing like that). Is this a symptom of bad RAM?
    Again, thanks for everyone's time and assistance.
