Yosemite will not remember display settings.

I set my display on my macbook pro 15" 2014 (Yosemite) to have external monitor and not mirror itself. Each time I shutdown and restart it goes right back to mirror mode, as well as my wallpaper is reset to default wallpaper. How do I fix this?
Thank you in advance.

This should sort it out for you, it worked perfectly for mr.
Re: Notifications preferences don't hold
Just reboot then make your new settings modifications, then restart to verify that it has worked. You may ask what to do with the folder you dragged to the desktop? Honestly I simply deleted it and things have never been better. Good luck.

CS5 will not remember print settings

Have upgraded from cs3 and cannot get cs5 to remember my print settings. In cs3 when I open a file to print it, the print driver automatically uses all the settings specified the last time I printed and saved the file. In cs5 the driver uses the settings specified for the last file printed. Anyone know how I can fix this?

Gaarhhhh, of course it would be something so stupid and simple...something I'd never think of.
Yeah, by docking I meant maximizing, I've been doing too much programming lately...
And yeah, moving it to the other monitor and closing it without maximizing it worked, and what's more when I opened it the second time, I maximized it, then closed it, then opened it again and it opened, maximized, in the correct monitor.
Still, seems like it could be a bug to me, CS3 always used to remember what monitor I opened the program in, whether I closed it maximized or not.
Also, for completion's sake, I have an nVidia GeForce 8800 GTS with the most recent drivers (just installed them about 2 days ago.)
Now I need to figure out how to turn off that stupid pixelation when I zoom in really far on an image...that's annoying.

Firefox v3.6.8 will NOT remember passwords. I've doubled check the settings but it will not remember the passwords

New HP laptop, O/S XP-Pro, my previous computer with XP-Pro had no problem remembering passwords but this v of Firefox will not remember the PW's

Thanks Cor-el. It now works on some sites, but there are still some where it doesn't work. The problem appears to be with sites that have more than just the username and password to fill in. Firefox only saves the username and password but not the other fields. It then refuses to fill in any of the fields on the site.
For instance, my bank has four fields on the sign-in page - username, security code, password, and an odd one with a number between 1 and 4 in it. Firefox only saves the username and password and so can't fill in the other fields. Actually it refuses to fill in any of the fields. It seems to not recognise the page at all.
The only way I can see around the problem at the moment is to save any that Firefox will save and use RoboForm to save the others. It means having two programs to do one job. It's messy but at least it works and I can save all my usernames and passwords and have them fill in properly.
I don't know why it is that RoboForm will save the data but Firefox won't. It appears to be something to do with Firefox only saving two fields whereas RoboForm will save any number as required.

IPhone will not remember my apple ID

My iPhone 3Gs will not remember my correct apple ID. It does display the correct ID when I go to settings/store/apple ID, but when I go to the App store it shows an incorrect apple id and I can never use the app store. How can my ID be shown in the Settings just fine and then be wrong in the store?

OK, it turns out that I once had another Apple ID and must have made purchases using it. I figured it turned into my current mobileme-iCloud account but it never went away or was converted. Now I have to deal with two ID's because you can't merge accounts. Oh well, I'll adjust. I wonder if anyone is actually reading this....

After installation of latest Bridge and Photoshop version (2014.2.2) *.CR2 files will not be displayed correctly, neither in preview nor in Camera Raw dialog.

After installation of latest Bridge and Photoshop version (2014.2.2) *.CR2 files will not be displayed correctly anymore, neither in preview nor in Camera Raw dialogue.
Some pictures have white squares with blue and red diagonal stripes that cover almost the complete picture.
When opening those files I have the same problem in Camera Raw dailogue and even in Photoshop eventually.
I tried to open the same same pictures on another computer with the same version of Bridge and Photoshop but the problem remains the same.
It seems like the files itselves are still ok, because if you open an explorer window the previews of the pictures are all ok. And the pictures' sizes remain the same.
I tried to clear the cache in both programs but it didn't help.
Has anyone an idea????

First see if a reboot of your PC helps. If not,
Resets may be in order:
Photoshop: Press and hold Control - Shift - Alt immediately upon cold-starting Photoshop. If you get the keys down quickly enough - and you have to be VERY quick - it will prompt you to confirm deletion of your established preferences, which will lead to them all being set to defaults.
Bridge: Start Adobe Bridge and immediately press Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS) until the Reset Settings dialog box appears. Select all three options--Reset Preferences, Reset Standard Workspaces, and Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache--and then click OK.
Outdated graphics drivers can also cause display problems. Go to your GPU maker's website and be sure you have the latest drivers for your card model.

DHCP snap-in will not retain window settings, columns, etc.

DHCP (version 6.3) will not retain window settings or columns after being closed. I haven't been able to find any information on this so far. Has anyone else had this issue?

Hi,
I understand your issue. The DHCP management console won't save the view customize settings.
We could customize the DHCP management console using MMC (Microsoft Management console)snap-in, customize it and save it to a place. Doing this makes the console remembered the configuration.
More information regarding MMC, please take a look at the below link:
Microsoft Management Console 3.0
For the DHCP management console does not remember the customization, this might by design. If we want to make a customized DHCP console shortcut, we could take a try to enter DHCP in author mode, more detailed steps, please take a check with the post of
Josh in the below thread:

WIndows 7 and Server2008 machines will not remember network discovery preferences, requires setting every start up or wake up.

hello
I wondered if anybody here could be so kind as to help me solve this situation
i have two Windows 7 machines and Server2008 machines will not remember network discovery preferences,
i am running software on the windows server machine that collects data and serves information to two windows 7 machines, and network discovery is required for this purpose
these machines are configured in a local stand alone network configured as a workgroup the only other items on network are none PC based equipment that the server happily communicates with and reads data from
once the network discovery is set for the network the system runs as expected but on every start-up (or wake up) the network discovery is lost and need to be re allowed. this is the case in both windows server 20008 r2 and windows 7
how do i make these preferences permanent. so that it will restart and re establish communication its self without intervention
am i missing a setting or if not is there a way i can script the the selection of preference on each start(/wake)up.
the final user need to be able to turn system on/restart and use it with out having to have any IT/networking knowledge to get system running.
thank you for taking the time to read my query

You can use group policy to enable network discovery so that it is always configured
1. In the Group Policy editor on a Win7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 computer, open the GPO that you want
to use in the Group Policy Editor.
2. Expand "Computer Configuration", "Windows Settings", "Security Settings", "Windows Firewall with Advanced
Security", and then "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security - {policy you have open}".
3 Right-click "Inbound Rules", and then click "New Rule".
4 In the Rule Wizard, on the Rule Type page, select"Predefined", and then select Network Discovery from
the list. Click Next.
5 On the Predefined Rules page, ensure that the check box is on each rule that is part of the Network
Discovery group, and then click Next.
6 On the Action page, select "Allow the Connection", and then click Finish.

Brower will not remember log-on even if asked to do so

I downloaded a program that clears all browsing history, which it did. Upon restart I found It still goes to the websites but all I get is a white screen with blue wording down left side.
I did some resetting in my Tools/privacy/history settings and ended up with " Always use 'Private setting mode' and "Never remember history". This setting now opens the web sites correctly
BUT
It will not remember log-in status even within the same session. For example I log into my banking site fine, then choose to look at my account information and it asks me to log-in. Id and get the page.
I then want to pay a bill, it asks me to log-in ect,ect,ect,
Or I log-into my home page, It used to log-on automatically, choose to navigate to my e-mail program and again it asks for a log in. When finished I return to the home page and have to log in again.
Can anybody help.?
Thank you.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Firefox will not remember passwords even tho the box is checked and there are no exceptions listed. The little bar asking to save passwords doesn't even come up.

After an online session, Firefox (6.0.1) crashed and a crash report was sent. After that, Firefox would not start and the crash window kept coming up. I uninstalled it and did a new install. It works fine now except it will not remember passwords even tho the box to save is checked and there are no exceptions listed. The bar asking to save does not come up.

Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode.
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Uncheck: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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.

Xserve will not remember link ?

Dear All,
We are experiencing some strange behavior when dealing with Adobe Illustrator CS2 document on Xserve running Mac OS X 10.4.10 and 10.4.9
We build our artwork via Xserver. It seem that Adobe Illustrator CS2 will not "remember" or "see" the linked images if the file is open up on another workstation, it will eventually report missing link. Adobe Illustrator will only "remember" and "see" the linked images on the workstation that is used to build the artwork.
The strange things is that this problem will not happen on a Microsoft Windows based server running ExtremeZ-IP. Meaning that any Illustrator file created anywhere via the server will not have missing link when open up anywhere using any workstation.
Please help. Does it have anything to do with server access right or other server settings? The permission is set to Read & Wright. It should be alright.
Any thought is very appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Jeno

User Print templates will not hold Print Settings Presets

User print templates set up for different papers will not remember/hold Print Settings Presets

Jeff,
You are correct it does work, I added a step not needed - I created a Preset on the Print Setting page, I should have left that as Default, it works that way. How pleasant to get a response from you, I just watched Camera to Print & Screen #39 Print from Lightroom this morning where I learned about Print templates. Thanks so much.

Hello BassoonPlayer,
Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using. FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in. This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly. By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you. Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.
