Within seconds, TWITTER Cookie Preference Settings change from SESSION to ALLOW. Vunerability exploit, or handshake?

I've reset Cookie preferences a dozen or more times; removing the Twitter account completely and only "Allow for Session" cookies. Then when I check back, withing seconds, the Cookie Preferences change back to ALLOW.
Twitter is the only website I've ever seen that's capable of doing this.
This is either a vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox, or Twitter has 'made a deal' with Mozilla to allow special preferences.

TS3171 IO'S and bus names keep changing from session to session

My IO'S keep changing there names back to original factory names after I change names on bus and input output they do not save from session to session .i am in 9.21 ver and using lion any help would be great

To recap (correct me if I'm wrong), two things have to happen for session sharing to work: 1. the session must be passed in a cookie (the same cookie used by appls sharing the session), and 2. the appls must use the same authentication.One solution is for both/all participating applications to use an authentication scheme based on our built-in session management mechanisms that use a cookie in conjunction with our internal sessions table. The schemes may differ in most other repects, e.g., one might use LDAP and the other your own user tables to authenticate. N.B., the no-authentication (DATABASE) scheme does not use a cookie. Another solution is for you to implement your own session management infrastructure. With that, the only constraint on session sharing between applications is that a) the applications must belong to the same workspace, and b) sessions already "registered" in the internal sessions table with an authenticated username may not be used by a different authenticated user.
Optionally, if you want either of the appls to have public access you make the pages public.Yes.

HT201184 Since I upgraded to Lion MACOSX.10.7.3 my toolbar does not fully load and my Airport settings change and do not allow me access to the internet even though I lock my preferences. I'm going crazy trying to fix this problem.

Since upgrading to Lion OSX.10.7.3 I am having network problems. It changes my preferences even though I lock them. I cannot connect to the internet most of the time. How do i lock my preferences so the program will not change them? When it changes them it also freezes the curser where it won't work. I'm going crazy trying to fix this problem. Please help me!

Audio 12bit and preference to change from 16bit & Graphic Card issues

I taped at 12bit audio and now while capturing to FCP after every clip I capture I get "Audio sample rated does not match source tape" I looked under my choices for Sequence presets and all I find is 16 bit. How can I switch this so I am supposedly synced and avoid the warning dialog box? My present settings are DV NTSC 48 kHz. I use a sony vx2000 with mini DV tapes. Of course next time I tape I will use 16bit audio to avoid this if I can't make the change.
Also has Apple resolved the deal with FCP using more than one Graphics card or do I have to remove two of the three Graphics cards just to use FCP still? Thanks all.

12-bit is 32k. 16-bit is 48k. If you shot in 32k you have to capture in 32k. Using the 48k default preset in FCP will produce the error message you see and make your audio drift out of sync, You have to create a custom capture preset that is set to 32k audio. In A.V Settings select the DV preset and duplicate it. In the lower right change the audio sample rate to 32k. Do the same for your sequence preset. Capture your media using the 32k preset and edit in the matching sequence.
In future change all your cameras to 16-bit so you record audio at 48k. That's the standard not 32k, despite it being the default for most consumer cameras.

After updating to firefox 17.0 when I do a scan with Norton 360 it does not pick up tracking cookies what has changed from 16.0.02

After updating to firefox 17.0 when I do a scan with Norton 360 it no longer picks up tracking cookies. These cookies that were picked up with firefox 16.0.02 what have you changed? Further I am getting sick of these updates - at least tell us users what has changed in new versions.

Did you update Norton to the latest version to get support for Firefox 17?

Security settings change from Acrobat Pro to Reader

I have set the Security Method in Acrobat Pro to allow "commenting, filling in form fields, and signing existing signature fields." But when I send the PDF file my customer who opens the document using Adobe Reader, commenting is not allowed. Why is the security setting changing? What can be done to correct this problem?

Are you sure this is not a limitation of the product?
"Reader" describes a product that reads a file and nothing more.
Have you looked at the Acrobat Professional's "Help" for information about enabling 'commenting'?

Security settings change when rendered from third party Windows 2008 R2 server

We created a fillable PDF form in Adobe Acrobat and made it Reader extended. Opening the form on a local hard drive the security settings show that Signing: is Allowed. We can sign documents in the form with a signature pad.
After we upload it to a third party Windows server 2008 R2, and we later go to access the form, the server renders it back to us in Adobe Reader. We are unable to digitally sign documents in the form with a Topaz signature pad. We notice that although the form was originally created with the form being Reader extended the security settings change to Signing: Not Allowed.
How can we get the server to render the document back to us where we can digitally sign documents in the form?

The second file still shows the extended rights header is present (it's warning you about restrictions at the top of the dialog while also reporting the method is "no security") but the digital signature which grants those extended rights will be invalidated if *anything* in the file structure is changed. I suspect in this case that the server software is doing something to your file; it may be trivial such as adding an XMP tag, but it's enough to break the hash check.

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

How do I best backup preference settings within Firefox ADD-ONs? RECOVERING from FireFOX RESET

''added this question to this - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/948264 - question thread - locking''
Hello:
what is ffox support suggested procedure to backup your preference settings set in each of the ADD-ONs.
I currently have over 50 add-ons and the list seems to be growing each month.
My add-on component is becoming a major component of my Firefox solution.
Great in functionality, dangerous for recovering from the Firefox RESET feature.
I have searched help online and found nothing of value to provide clear steps of what one must to do.
Thankyou

Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
Some security software has virtualization or sandbox features that may cause problems by protecting and restoring files in the Firefox profile folder.
Try to rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default values.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resetting_preferences
If you rename the file(s) then you can undo the action or inspect the files with an editor like Notepad.
Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

Cookies do not get deleted / re-appear within seconds if I delete them manually and yes I've checked every single support page about this and it didn't help

– I have the most recent version of Firefox.
– I have my settings in Preferences -> Privacy on "Keep third party cookies until I close Firefox".
– I've checked "Clear history when Firefox closes" and have ticked every single box under settings (except saved passwords).
– But still, Cookies do not get deleted when I close Firefox – there are hundreds of cookies every time I open it.
– If I go to Tools -> Clear recent history, choose "everything" and tick every single box, history etc. get deleted but the cookies remain.
– If I go to Preferences -> Privacy and click "Show Cookies" and then click "Remove all cookies" twice, the cookies disappear, but they're back just seconds later.
– I've even tried going to Preferences, clicking on Exceptions and manually adding some of the websites that showed up under "show cookies" and blocking them and then deleting the cookies, but still they re-appeared within seconds, and the exceptions were blank again.
– I've checked all your support pages about this topic.
– I've seen this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/740598?esab=a&as=aaq and tried it and it didn't help.
– I've seen this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/936308?esab=a&as=aaq and this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/868910?esab=a&as=aaq, and yes I do use "Do Not Track Plus" and some of the Cookies seem to be Opt-Out-Cookies but most are not.
Please help me. I used to be a big fan of Firefox but this is getting really scary.

You can't remove opt-cookies that are added by an extension unless you disable or uninstall that extension, so you can disable the do not track extension as a test to see if that allows to remove the cookies.

After doing a Foxfire update this morning, I now get a second icon on my tool bar when I change from news to gmail?

After accepting an update this morning from Mozilla, I now get a second icon on my bottom toolbar when I change from either news to gmail or from gmail to news. I tried restarting my computer but it still does it.

Thankyou mccashin:
I checked the home page assignment in preferences and found that the errant site had been appended to the normal (google) home page address. Incidentally, I had basically solve the problem within a session by erasing all history related to bbc. Without your fix I would been back to the same error next time I started Firefox from scratch. Thanks again.

"Rendering: settings changed" after saving changes from Bridge

I have LR 2.6 on my Mac. I import RAW images through LR, let LR build 1:1 previews. Once the import has finished & previews are built, LR moves from image to image fine. I then do my basic edits, deletions, and do a batch renumber.
Next I go to Bridge to make my adjustments in the RAW window without opening the files. I go back to LR, save the changes, allowing the Bridge changes to overwrite the LR development import presets in the xmp files.
It usually takes LR a while to save all the changes, but eventually it does it. However, here is my issue. No matter how much time I give LR to render new previews, I don't think it does, at least not until I go to Library mode double click an image to view larger (to fit the window). When I go from image to image, it takes a few seconds while displaying the message "Rendering: settings changed..." Now, this is not necessarily right after I save the changes, but it still happens weeks later- whenever I go to view those images. Does LR not automatically re-render the previews after development changes have been made and saved to LR?
And if not, how would I force LR to do it for that catalog, or for all my images?
Thanks,
R

A fair question- one, when I have tried, LR is way slower on my Mac G5 than doing it in Bridge, which is slow itself. I just launched LR, had an open folder with 303 images in it which I had already rendered previews of, then clicked on Develop module- it took 13 seconds to go to that module & finish "loading". Yes, a new commuter would solve many problems <g>, but until then....
What you may need is more RAM. Or do you have other applications working in the background 13 seconds to build a preview!!!!! Using a old Macbook with 1.2 GB RAM an it does it faster than that!LR doesn't require a lot of power from a machine...it does need as much RAM as you can stick in a machine and the fastest disks you can use...but if it is taking 13 seconds to build a single preview then it isn't really worth using IMO
Why not make all you RAW adjustments in Lightroom Develop module. The raw processing engine is the same as ACR and you can choose "auto save changes to xmp" in the preferences.
Ah, bingo. That works, abet slowly (see above). Okay, I will just have to remember to manually do that once I save changes to LR from xmp data. I guess I thought LR would be smart enugh to do that itself, but I guess not. And again, I find it faster to go back & forths, even with an extra step.
LR can be set to automatically write any changes to xmp, it doesn't have to be done manually (set this in preferences) you just have the choice. It won't read changes made in other applications automatically as this would be a very bad idea..it would after all over write the LR database. So if you do want to over write the LR database you must activly choose to do so.

Is there a PS setting where it can read my Canon Mark 3 5D's monochrome setting so that the files will also appear in monochrome instead of colour? Or do I have to change from RAW each time to Monochrome within PS (even if I have set up for Monochrome in

Is there a PS setting where it can read my Canon Mark 3 5D's monochrome setting so that the files will also appear in the same monochrome structure (instead of appearing in colour as it is now when i open in PS, not even monochrome)? Or do I have to change from RAW each time to Monochrome within PS (even if I have set up for Monochrome in my 5D)?
1. Basically I am taking photos with a monochrome setting with my 5D and the screen shows monochrome.
2. when i import this onto my computer and open with PS, it opens in colour.
3. when I change this to Monochrome in PS. (It cannot read my monochrome setting with my preference of the greyscale mix when I viewed it on my 5D)
4. my question is: is there a way so that PS can read the monochrome setting from my 5D and display the same monochrome setting as my 5D instead of a different one from PS.

you need camera raw 6.7 or better.
i don't know what version of ps you have so i can't say if it can be updated to use that, but update anyway.

FireFox 19.02 Cookie Handling Changes prevent users from blocking or allowing cookies?

Prior to 19.0.2, I could specifically decide exactly how a site deposited cookies on my machine. When I visited a 'new' site, FireFox sprung open a pop-up window that allowed me to choose "Block", "Allow for Session" or "Allow". That doesn't appear anymore.
Also, for at least one site, FireFox won't adhere to my chosen handling preference: "Twitter dot com" will not accept the "Allow For Session" designator. I've NEVER allowed any site to set cookies past session's end, and prior to 19.0.2 Twitter had the "Allow for Session" designation. Now, however, Twitter FORCES FireFox to "ALLOW" cookies; when I manually enter "Allow for session" Firefox won't take it! FireFox immediately changes that to "ALLOW" status.
Why was the very nice pop-up cookie handling routine disabled in FireFox 19.0.2, and is there any way to get it back? This new FireFox is making me unhappy.

Thanks!
The Big Question remains:
Why did FireFox change the Cookie handling routine? I want my decision-making pop-up Cookie-handling box back!
"Allow This Site to Set Cookies?" [Click Option]
"Block" "Allow" "Allow for Session"
Also, a tiny check box: "Remember this setting"
Taking that away? Bad form, FireFox!

Can you transfer apps data/preference settings from one iPod to another?

I just bought a new 32G iPod touch (previously using a 16G touch). I know how to transfer all of my music, movies, etc. from the iTunes library.
But here is my question: is there a way to transfer the "preferences/settings" files for my apps--workout routines, high score settings, mail settings, stock data--from the iPod itself?
The actual apps transferred over fine from iTunes, but is there a way to get all of my info from my old iPod to the new one?

I am trying to do this, but it doesn't seem to work for me. When I restore my new iPod from my old iPod backup, I only get settings and some pictures, but no apps or music.
In order for this to work would have I had to have the "Sync" settings on for apps and music? I can't turn this on now. The music is not a big deal, but I have a few essential apps on here that I really need the data from.
Any ideas?
