Why does the newest FF keep me signed in to websites when I log off despite being set to full time "private browsing"? This is a real problem on a shared computer!

Despite being set to full time "Private" mode, this latest version of FF keeps me logged into things like ebay etc.
This has never happened with previous versions and is a real problem.

Are you restoring pages from the previous session if you start Firefox?

If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete cookies.sqlite-journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

Why does the store app keeps loading and doesn't work ?

why does the store app keeps loading and doesn't work ?

Hi Peter,
In order to analyze your issue better, we need more detailed information.
Did you mean when you launch the Windows store app, the app can't start? Was there any prompt message or error code? Did this issue occur on all Windows Store app or specific one?

Why does the Adobe Updater keep failing?

Why does the internet on my new macbook pro not work when my old macbook's does?

Why does the internet on my new macbook pro not work when my old macbook's does? I'll have to turn the wifi off and back on multiple times to get the internet to continue to work on my Macbook Pro (running mountain lion but did it on lion also) when it runs fine on my old white Macbook (running lion). Is there something I can do to fix it or do I just have to deal with it?

Here is your fix .. I have uploaded my properly calibrated profile get it here :
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YAJL6A9X
And it should go to your user folder/Library/ColorSync/Profiles
if you have one already you can rename either one ..
and then go to system preferences - displays - color to select the profile .
you will get rid of the blue tint while keeping correct color and gamma
This is for the newer 2010 MBP's altho if same display was used might also give good results in the previous models as well . .

Settings > iTunes and App Store > Apple ID = Sign Out... Then Sign In using the preferred Apple ID.

Why does the folder "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements" open automatically when I start my PC?

Why does the folder "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements" open automatically when I start my PC? How do I adjust settings to stop this from happening?

Hi,
This folder is probably treated as a program to run at startup.
So you will have to look at the places where such programs are referenced.
For instance, you may have a shortcut to that folder in your Start Menu > Startup.
Or it may be in the Registry.
Click on Start > Execute, the type msconfig and click OK.
This will show you in the Startup tab all the programs launched at startup.

Why does the video window keep minimising then opening again?

I'm slowly working through all the problems I am having with my laptop, and this one is just a bit weird - nothing more than an inconvenience, but it sorts itself out.
If i am watching a video / TV show in iTunes (opened in new window, not in iTunes window) and am doing something else (eg using safari), then i try to move the movie (as it is now not the active window), sometimes it moves, sometimes it pauses for no reason (I am clicking the bar with the videos name in) and sometimes it freezes, the video window minimises then instantly comes back up from the dock...
Does anyone know why it may be doing this?

This can be a problem with session restore. 
Firefox stores session data every 10 seconds to make it possible to restore a crashed session. 
If you have (security) software that interferes with that or have many tabs open then that cause cause a delay. 
You can try to increase the session store saving interval to see if that has any effect on the freezes.

Why does the 'iCal helper' keep appearing in my dock?

After upgrading to 10.5.6 today the iCal helper application keeps launching and staying in my dock. It's not marked as a log-in item, and doesn't necessarily launch when i log-in. It just launches randomly every hour or so.
I've read that it is the program that allows iCal to display alerts when it's not running, but it never used to be visible in the dock, it doesn't even have a real application icon.
Does someone know how to prevent it from showing up in the dock??

Why does the download list keep emptying?

I have set the preference to empty the download list manually. And it used to work fine until a few weeks ago. But now, every time I close Safari, the download list empties and the download button disappears, until the next time I download something
Why is this happening, and what can I do about it? I definitely want the items to remain in the list until I remove them, and I'm sure that I have set the preference correctly.

Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Safari/Downloads.plist
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Show Info
from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
Does the dialog show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section?
In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked?
What is the Modified date?
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.

Why does the keyboard focus keep switching to the menu bar?

Does anyone else have the problem of Photoshop CS6 constantly setting the keyboard focus to the menu bar? This makes it difficult to use shortcuts.
Typical examples: I want to switch to the Move tool, so I press V, but instead, the View menu drops down. Or I press T for the Type tool, but instead, the Filter menu drops down. This happens often and it's very annoying.
This also happens in Premiere Pro CS6, and happens on both my Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 machines. Doesn't happen in other applications, and is not related to actually using a menu, i.e. if I choose something from a menu, then press V, Photoshop will often work correctly and activate the Move tool. This behavior seems to happen randomly.

Alt doesn't really "unhide" the menu bar (speaking of Photoshop), but it's always been the introducer of keyboard operations for "keyboard accessbility" - i.e., operation of Windows applications without mouse.
Alt causes little underlines to show up under the key characters of menu items, and prepares the system for the next character being typed to open a menu - so for example you press something like 'e' and the Edit menu pulls down. Now you use an arrow key to move to the next item, or maybe a single character that's associated with one of the menu entries.
Photoshop's goals for using modifier keys kind of conflict with this. They've apparently tried to reach a balance where using the Alt key to modify some operation cancels the introduction of the next menu item.
But I don't think it's possible to be perfect at that, especially for example if the user presses Alt, decides not to do the operation he was thinking about doing (e.g., zooming out), then just releases the key. Another factor might be the habits people get into for choosing tools.
As a contrast, one person might not press the Alt key until they're sure they're going to do something with it (e.g., zoom out), and that same person might only choose tools from the Tools panel by clicking on them. Another person might press the Alt key sometimes, but then stop before doing the operation it modifies. That same person might be in the habit of choosing tools by their letter (e.g., E for eraser). It's clear to see how the first person might never get into a condition where the menu introducer key (Alt) leaves them in a state where a menu opens inadvertently, while the latter might see it regularly.
As far as why Photoshop might get into a mode where the menu introduction occurs when you HAVEN'T pressed the Alt key, I don't know; I certainly haven't seen that reported much if at all here on the forum.

Why does the newest version not open to the homepage no matter which way you set it up?

The latest version of Firefox recently installed on my PC. Now, no matter which way I set the home page it does not open to that. I simply get a blank tab. Yes, I have set the page correctly and even told Firefox to open to the home page. It does not work. It will accept the settings, and I have rebooted a few times too. When I click the home icon, it opens the page so I know it is set up correctly.

Why does the Invisible Man keep playing my music?

I have an iPod Touch & the only thing that bugs me with it is that when I finish with it, I pause the music and then turn it off with the switch at the top left
However when I come back later, the music has restarted and been consistently playing whilst I was not aware - and so I am 20 songs further down my playlist & end up with less battery power than expected
The only thing that I can think of for this is that the remote control on the headphones has been triggered, e.g. if the ipod is in my pocket or in a bag & it touches something.
Has anyone else had this problem or am I missing something when turning it off?
I have started disconnecting the headphones when not using it, I will see if this makes a difference
Many thanks!

ok what I have come up with ... if there is an update available from another store then the iPhone will keep trying to take you to that store but as you are logged in to other store it will not let you connect ... solution which worked for me was to go to the store requiring app update, update the app, change back to "now" store !!!!
in my case
1. change store to Canada
2. update app i.e Google earth
3. revert to UAE store ...
Voila !!!!

Why does the "Simulation Model Converter" create a 1-D array when a subsystem is converted

Hi,
I want to convert a complex Simulink Simulation with many subsystems into LabVIEW VI. One Problem I have is the one in the subject. I attached a simple example Simulink file and the result of the "Simulation Model Converter" where my problem occurs.
In this example I have two equal block diagrams, with the differnce, that the one below uses a subsystem (that only contains a gain). But why is the data inside the sub system a 1D array? Is that necessary? If I change the array by hand into a normal constant, the simulation still works. Is there a way to prevent this wrong conversion.
Thank you

Hello Talvi,
I am guessing that you do not have Simulink installed on the computer where you are doing the conversion. If you do the conversion on a computer where Simulink is installed, you will get better results. This is mentioned in the help topic: Using the Simulation Model Converter. If you are still having trouble, can you please let us know which versions of the software involved you are using?

HT1975 Why does the location on my iphone show three different places when I'm not even there?

Because GPS is not perfect, especially when the device is inside a building.

Why does the form link show up in 2 pages, but when I save the form as PDF it comes up as 3 pages?

A few weeks ago, I asked the above question on why the form link shows up in 2 pages, but when the form is saved as PDF it comes up as 3 pages.
The answer I received was that I can simply select the page break and hit "delete" button or click on the trash can icon at the top right corner.
I tried to do this but, there is NO OPTION to select the page break and hit delete….
I want to combine the page on my PDF because the header takes up one entire page.
How can I do this? Can someone please help or walk me through this live?
