Why wont my private browsing work - it did yesturday

also I have two blue bars across the top of browser. On the left side the top one has the firefox logo, the bottom has Firefox button. And on the right side I have two minimiz-resize and close buttons, one set on top bar, one set on bottom bar. Is something wrong with my insallation??? And private browsing quit working. Just installed this two days ago. Just updated it. I have four add-ons. Ghostery, No-Script, Privacychoice and better privacy. thanks, W

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.

  • Why wont my .vst plugins work in cs6 on win 7 pro 64 bit

    why wont my .vst plugins work on my new os ,win 7 pro 64 bit, i have cs6 and cc installed, they worked fine when it was on xp pro.. even if it finds them and you can bring them up it crashes cs6, any advice is helpful, thanks!!

    But i really want them to work in cs6, i heard you have to use j bridge to use .vst's in cc, is this true..
    Yes.
    I just dont understand why they wont work in win 7 pro 64 bit , is it an os problem or is it a cs6 problem, when i had cs6 in win xp pro, was it installed as a 32 bit program, if thats the case can i load a 32 bit version of cs6>>>??? thanks!!
    It's not the OS - W764Pro can run 32-bit software fine in emulation. Your problem is that there is no 32-bit version of CC. It was widely circulated before release that this was going to be 64-bit only, and that you would need bridging software to run old 32-bit VST plugins.
    Apparently, jbridge works fine once you've got it installed and everything in the correct place. I wouldn't know though, because I don't use it - I only use a small number of 64-bit plugins directly. On those few occasions that I want to use a 32-bit plugin, I run it in CS6 Audition (which isn't the CC version, but is 32-bit). So yes, if you have the 32-bit program you can run them in that. Both versions of the software will co-exist quite happily on the same machine, and won't interact at all - except that you have to be careful with your sound device settings.

  • Why when using private browsing does Safari still remember websites visited?

    Even when private browsing is selected on my MacBook and iPad2, websites visited are remembered and displayed in history.  Why is this?

    Hi Graham,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  Is it possible that you have some Safari windows open as private browsing, and others not?  See the overview of private browsing below (see the note I've highlighted in bold):
    Safari 8 (Yosemite): Use Private Browsing windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19216
    Use Private Browsing windows in Safari
    When you use Private Browsing windows, Safari doesn’t save your browsing history, and it asks websites you visit not to track you.
    Use Private Browsing:
    Choose File > New Private Window, or switch to a Safari window that’s already using Private Browsing. A window that’s using Private Browsing has a dark address and search field with white text.
    When you use a Private Browsing window:
    Each tab in the window is isolated from the others, so websites you view in one tab can’t track your browsing in other tabs.
    Safari doesn’t remember the webpages you visit or your AutoFill information.
    Safari doesn’t store your open webpages in iCloud, so they aren’t shown when you view all your open tabs from other devices.
    Your recent searches aren’t included in the results list when you use the address and search field.
    Items you download aren’t included in the downloads list. (The items do remain on your computer.
    Safari doesn’t remember changes to your cookies or other website data. Safari also asks websites and others who provide those sites with content (including advertisers) not to keep track of your browsing, although it is up to the websites to honor this request.
    Plug-ins that support Private Browsing stop storing cookies and other tracking information.
    Websites can’t modify information stored on your device, so services normally available at such sites may work differently until you turn off Private Browsing.
    Note:   None of the above applies in other Safari windows you may have open that don’t use Private Browsing.
    Stop using Private Browsing:
    Close the Private Browsing window, switch to a different Safari window that isn’t using Private Browsing, or choose File > New Window to open a window that doesn’t use Private Browsing. To further enhance privacy:
    Delete any items you downloaded while using Private Browsing windows.
    Close any other Private Browsing windows that are still open, to prevent others from using the Back and Forward buttons to see pages you visited in them.
    Besides using Private Browsing windows, you can manage cookies and data stored by all websites and have Safari ask all websites not to track you.
    If you forget to use a Private Browsing window, you can clear your browsing history.

  • Firefox won't load, but private browsing works.

    I cannot load any pages in Firefox. They will not show as loading, and it simply says Connecting...
    Then, if I click anywhere else, it'll fade and say "Not Responding". It started today, and every time I open Firefox, it does this.
    However, if I enter private browsing, everything works just fine.

    If you are in PB mode then the disk cache is disabled and you do not have access to the cookies from normal mode (you get a fresh new set).
    If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file <i>cookies.sqlite</i> that stores the cookies is corrupted.<br />
    Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookie files like <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

  • Why does Permanent Private Browsing keep enabling itself?

    Every time I open Firefox, Permanent Private Browsing is enabled.
    I tried to disable it manually countless times (by un-checking the box next to "always use private browsing mode" in the options window), but then I quit firefox and when I open it up again, there it is enabled again.
    Please note that I mean PERMANENT mode, not the temporary option on the main menu.

    How do I turn off Private Browsing?
    * https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Private%20Browsing#w_how-do-i-turn-off-private-browsing
    -> click '''Firefox''' button and click '''Options''' -> '''Privacy''' panel -> '''History''' section -> ''under'' '''Firefox will:''' ''select'' '''"Use Custom Settings for History"''' -> REMOVE Checkmark from '''Permanent Private Browsing mode'''
    * place Checkmarks on 1) Remember my Browsing History 2) Remember Download History 3) Remember Search and Form History 4) Accept Cookies from sites -> 5) Accept Third-party Cookies -> ''under'' '''Keep Until :''' ''select'' '''They Expire'''
    * REMOVE CHECKMARK from CLEAR HISTORY WHEN FIREFOX CLOSES
    -> Click OK on Options window -> Restart Firefox
    Check and tell if its working.
    -> IF you use '''Clear Recent History''' feature, DO NOT select '''Cookies, Forms and Search History, Active Logins, Site Preferences'''
    * https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History#w_what-things-are-included-in-my-history
    -> IF you use Privacy Cleanup softwares like CCleaner etc., DON'T SELECT FIREFOX IN ITS SETTINGS. These softwares can be responsible for Deleting your Firefox Settings.

  • Private browsing works to a degree, regular doesn't.

    I reset it, I uninstalled it and reinstalled it. tried it in safe mode. Private browsing kind of works but I have to toggle fire IE sometimes. Cleared cache.

    In what what way is Firefox not working properly?
    Can you give more details and possibly attach a screenshot?
    *http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-do-i-create-screenshot-my-problem
    *Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot
    *Make sure that you do not exceed the maximum size of 1 MB
    Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    If clearing cookies didn't help then 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.

  • Private browsing worked fine on the last version, but does not seem to work at all in the new 4 version, so what is the problem? I have uninstalled and reinstalled it several times but that does not solve the problem.

    My points above lay out the problem and I get messages telling me it can't find the files....Why is it not working when it did just fine right up until you came out with version 4???
    Any suggestions? I may have to go to another browser, but I have always like your product best.

    You are welcome. There has never been a need to move that one before, but try it since you can always put it back.
    If the same, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

  • Email yes but why won't web browser work?

    In the last few weeks, both my powerbook G4 with 10.4.6 and my ibook with 9.2 have develop problems browsing the web. my web surfing will be fast and fine and then, without warning, i click a link and it will search without success for as long as ten minutes. i can stop and reclick, try a different web site altogether, quit my browser and relaunch it, try another browser and i can even restart my airport base station. none of these things work. it just reconnects whenever it feels like it. the whole time this is happening, my airport icon is telling me i have a full connection and my email works at regular speed (Entourage), so it isn't like i am completely disconnected from the internet. why would one part of my online connection (email) work perfectly all of the time while my web connection through my browsers works intermittently? especially when everything worked perfectly for eight months prior to this.
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Tom,
    You mean that the IP address of the mail server (even for a different ISP's mail server) has been "cached" somehow ? I tried to mention this earlier, ISP's will "cache" the IP addresses for the big-ticket websites and mail servers (like gmail and hotmail maybe).
    It can also happen at the network level, usually OSX Server is required, or a PC equivalent - but this isn't usual for individual computers. I suppose it could also happen at browser level, but I don't know of a browser that does this. Cache the IP address of each website visited and it's valid for that session only, would be harmless.
    The original poster could take note of the IP address of something big (google) - using traceroute in the Network Utility - next time the web goes south, try accessing via the IP address.
    I did hear of a horde of complaints about AirPort and OSX 10.4.5, but none that allowed the user to still receive mail (even from a different ISP). I've searched the discussion forums again just now, nothing. Although there was one thread relating to the inability to use email while the internet worked fine. Maybe you could post a link to the threads you've found.

  • Why wont my crossfade tool work?

    When I select the crossfade tool and drag it from one region to the other, sometimes it works and sometimes it just doesn't. The regions are touching, even when I zoom in to the finest resolution. This is extremely frustrating. Don't stop reading and start posting. Finish reading my post.
    I stumbled upon at least one thread where someone was encountering a similar problem, but it was archived, so I couldn't post my discovery there.
    If you drag one of the regions, drop it, then drag it back to its original position, the crossfade tool works. This obviously isn't ideal, but at least it works. If anyone has a better solution for me, I'd love to hear it.
    I didn't see anywhere where I could use the marquee tool to highlight the desired region for the Xfade, then use a key command to set the fade. Why, oh why can't you do this, Logic? WHY!!?!?!?!!!!!

    Check that you're audio files are uncompressed AIFF or WAV. If you have imported anything into your project like an mp3 or m4a file, it may not have been converted to uncompressed audio file, and you won't be able to create crossfades.
    You can do this by selecting the regions you want to edit and under the audio heading in the tool bar, select "convert regions to new audio files". I thought I had set up Logic to do this automatically when importing, but it did not happen for me just recently.
    I think it's a really good idea to save your new project AS SOON AS YOU CREATE IT, before you've done any importing or recording. This way you have a proper project folder established and files in folders where they're supposed to be right from the start.
    Hope that helps.

  • Why wont my USB ports work?

    Hello, this is my first post and i am after a little help.
    i am having problems with my usb ports, i have a k8neo platinum mobo. i have usb ports on that, i have two front usb ports and i have a 4 four in a pci slot. a few weeks back they work working, i had been using a pen drive fine and my friends external hd connected through my front usb ports. now for some reason none work. i have tried my pen drive in every usb port and none work, the pci usb ports dont recognise it and all the others dont see anything at all. i have checked the bios and that seems fine. i dont know why they would just stop... i run win xp pro with service pack 2 so it should have no problem? any help would be great. 

    Fenix, after reading your post above, I decided to check my Antec case's wiring, manual, website and check the MOBO manual. In my instance the case, disregarding the 9th wire, and the MOBO agree. I did find some interesting information about the connector block and the Antec case. I bolded the warning information:
    http://www.antec.com/us/support_roductInfo_FAQ.php?Qnumber=5&FAQno=14
    Quote from: Antec
    What is the typical pin configuration of the Antec USB connector?
    The Antec USB connector follows the Intel standard layout. Majority of the motherboards follow the same standard as well. Intel Standard 10pin Layout
    Pin 1 = Power Pin 2 = Power
    Pin 3 = Data - Pin 4 = Data -
    Pin 5 = Data + Pin 6 = Data +
    Pin 7 = Ground Pin 8 = Ground
    Pin 9 = Key or Blocked pin Pin 10 = Ground
    Warning: If your motherboard contains a USB pin labeled OC or NC, make sure that no wire goes to it. You can lift the black tab and pull the wire out or simply clip the wire going to it. The pin for it is usually in pin 10. When a wire is connected to OC or NC, all the USB ports can stop working, the system can automatically shut down, or the secondary IDE is disabled.
    In your case, rewiring may have been the solution, but, as you can see, in my case, and I suspect in many, if not most, cases, the solution of removing the 9th wire at the #10 pin is the correct course of action.
    I think you should post your solution, but please identify you Case's make and model as this solution may be limited to that case or to certain cases.  I think double checking to ensure that the wiring of the case matches the pin configuration is a very good course of action. There may be several solutions to this problem and yours or mine may not be the only ones.

  • Why wont my Air Drop work?

    I got this ipad air in february, and I love it. the only problem I seem to be having is my air drop will not work, my bf has the air as well and he can airdrop me all sorts of stuff when we are close to each other. However, when I select a picture, and choose to airdrop it.. nothing happens. No picture pops up (I can see my face on my bf ipad when he chooses me to air drop), both my bluetooth and wireless are on but yet it still refuses to let my use my air drop. Any ideas at all what could be happenining or am I doing something wrong?

    by the way here is what should execute as soon as it is
    launched:
    public function DocClass (){
    stage.displayState =
    StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE;
    VideoGlobals.FLVS =
    File.desktopDirectory.resolvePath("AIR_FLV").getDirectoryListing();
    VideoGlobals.PLAY_LISTS =
    File.desktopDirectory.resolvePath("AIR_PLAYLISTS").getDirectoryListing();
    VideoThumbnails.addThumbs();
    stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.EXACT_FIT;
    addMainMenu();
    private function addMainMenu () {
    mainMenu = new MainMenu();
    addChild(mainMenu);
    mainMenu.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, openSelectEdit);
    DocClass is my document class constructor function and
    MainMenu contains graphical content that you can see once it is
    added to the stage, so it is clearly not getting added.
    THANKS!
