Why wont my xfce4-panel remember its settings?

I'm using xfce4-panel in Compiz Standalone, so there is no xfce-session manager or anything.
I put the clock plugin on it and changed the display to digital, but it just wont remember its settings when I close and reopen it.

If you are exiting the panel via ending your Compiz/X session, then Xfce Panel will not save its settings because Compiz does not gracefully end its process before it terminates and the panel crashes.
You will need to exit the panel from its Exit menu in order for Xfce Panel to save its settings, then re-launch it.

Make Resize Panel Remember My Settings

Hi,
I'm on Photoshop CS5.1 on Windows.
Is there any way to make the resize panel remember what settings I told it to use?
In 99.99% of cases, I want to use pixes as units, locked aspect ratio, and left corner as reference... Yet, any time I set those and then go to resize another object, the settings get reverted to center reference point, percents, and unlocked aspect ratio.
It's incredibly annoying to have such poor defaults without sticky settings... Is there any way around it?
Let me know.
Thanks,
Z

Turn on the rulers (Ctrl r) right click inside the ruler and choose unit. It will keep that unit until you change it again. As far as I know, there is no way to change the Free Transform reference point default from center.

Will my X-Fi remember its settings after Windows reinsta

Hello,
I have a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic and have used the Creative Audio Console to configure the card accordingly for my speakers (Logitech Z-2300). If I reinstall Windows XP, will the sound card remember it's settings when I reinstall the drivers or am I going to have to fiddle around with the settings again?
Thanks in advance

I had to turn CMSS-3DVirtual off in order for everything to sound alright - I'm wondering if this is saved at all on the hard dri've or if its a setting that is applied at the card level. I don't use any graphical equalizer for the card, just the Creative Audio Console that comes with the latest drivers from the website.
I format frequently so not having this saved is going to be a real pain in the ***.
You don't need to wonder anything if you try make a copy of that PCI_BUSXXXX-X-XXXXXXXX-XXXX.dat file mentioned and try as instructed ?
If you don't find that file, then AC does not save it's settings into that location but maybe into registry --> just search the registry after AC settings and if founs, export that registry data to a .reg file --> you can then later restore that data by double_clicking the .reg file you saved.

[Solved] qtconfig doesn't remember its settings

I want to adjust the fonts used by Qt4 applications -- when I fire up qtconfig (/usr/bin/qtconfig) I can make the changes and they apply to qtconfig's window but not to other apps' windows. The next time I open qtconfig it's back to its previous settings. This isn't an issue with Qt3's config (/opt/qt/bin/qtconfig) and my Qt3 apps look the way I want them.
It looks like there must be something preventing qtconfig to write the new configuration to some file -- but I haven't got an idea what file this should be and where and what could prevent it. Any ideas on where I should start looking are welcome.
EDIT: rm ~/.config/Trolltech.conf and re-configuring Qt via qtconfig did the job.

None of those two methods worked for me.
In my case there is symbol font set in the qt and I can't use qt apps, because I dont see any font, only symbols.
No sudo or deleting helped, I really need forexample skype.
How to fix it ?
//EDIT:
[Partial Fix]
Other than gtk theme needs to be used. If you have symbol fonts as me. then it is the first rolling menu, and choose first, then go to second tab and change first rolling menu(it is fonts). Then click exit up right and one of the three appeared button says yes, save configuration.
In this example, there is a font change.
But theme change needs to be done first.

Why does my xfce4-panel taskbar look like this?

Why does one task take up the whole bar? It's so ugly!!

Ah, so this brings up another aesthetically displeasing trait: Now my panel changes size depending on how many tasks are in my taskbar because I have it set to normal width, rather than full width. Is there any way to force the whole panel to stay at one length?

Why wont my iphone 6 remember my email password

why won't my iphone 6 remember my email password

Hi melissajb74,
If you are having issues with your iPhone not keeping your email password, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
iOS: Force an app to close
Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

Xfce4 applications lost its connection to display

Hi, I was using arch with xfce4 with no problem at all... but today xfce4 seems to have very strange problems...
As usual I logged in and give the startx command, well this time xfce starts loading but after this i've only a black screen with mouse pointer....
I thought it was an X server problem, but blackbox works fine... Then I discovered that xfce is running but not showing anything, if i tape ALT+F2 xfrun4 starts and I can start any applications I want (as the browser I'm using now) including xfce4 application like xfce4-panel or xfce4-session , that didn't start before as usual...
So the problem seems to be that the DE can't initialize it's services, but it sounds strange 'cause before I never had any problems, and I don't remember if I upgraded somethingh during laste working session...
Xorg log in /var/log seems to be useless, so I post my ~/.xsession-errors:

Launch the Console 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 Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

i am downloading after effects and its will get to a different spot each time and say retry....... why wont it work!!!!????

you're probably losing connectivity.
you can try a different browser and/or a different wired connection and/or a download manager or if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download from prodesigntools.com
if you need a prodesigntools.com link, which version of ae do you need?

My Xfce4-panel wont let me 'move' panel plugins...

I can right-click on them, select 'move' and drag the little hand around, but the whole panel is greyed and no matter where I click, the move is unsuccessful and the plugin just goes to its original position.
I've tried deleting stuff in .config/xfce4/panel and .cache, so that the panel starts completely default, but it has the same issue.
Any ideas?

Thanks for the tip on moving those around. Indeed it is a bug in gtk2.22 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634765 . Here is the xfce bug report also on this http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6818 .

You may need to try this More than Once...
Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
But... if the Device has been Modified... this will Not necessarily work.

Why does Firefox 8 lose its settings between sessions?

Version 8 does not hold its settings from one Windows session to another. I have to keep turning the menu bar back on and resizing the window (the default of the left half of the screen -- absolutely WORST place it could be -- keeps coming back!). Fix this or you're going to start losing users by the thousands to Chrome, which never has had these problems. As well, I click Submit Feedback button and nothing happens, the bookmarks toolbar disappears, and the tabs go up top. HORRIBLE!!!

I tried hard reset on my iPhone. I tried restarting laptop and iPhone. I tried a different laptop. I tried removing driver and reinstalling from Device Manager but did not find a driver other than "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" under "Universal Serial Bus controllers" which I heard shouldn't be uninstalled.
Anything I haven't tried?
HELP!

A bit confused by your statement

Are you seeing your music listed in the iPod screen, or in Win explorer as in your earlier post?
I can see all the songs in my Edrive>al's Ipod> Ipod Control> Music folder.
A corrupted iPod database, will report zero music used, and have your music size reported as others, so you wont see the music in the iPod screen. Sorry, I thought there was some hope for you with iPodAccess, in recovery of the corrupted iPod database with your ratings.
You can try to borrow and use the Mac Disk Utility ->First Aid ->Repair.
Of course, if your iPod Hardisk is in a bad state, from the Disk Diagnostic report, then all my suggestion are futile.

Why wont my Ipod 5 front camera work?

Why wont my Ipod 5 front camera work I tired restarting it but its not doing anything

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
