    The button create a new paragraph style does not work for me, is this a bug or something stupid I did?

    Pages on El Capitan 10.11.1 v5.6.1.

    I just created a quote indented using ITC Garamond Book Italic with left and right margins altered. Well selected, I clicked on the + symbol in the paragraph, named the new Styles pop-up style Indented quote and you press return.

    Always selected in the body of the document, I applied the body paragraph Style to restore the normal formatting and then with the text again, the paragraph of citation Style indented - who worked as expected.

    If you want that your new Style of paragraph to survive across documents, you will need to save it in a model. You can also have two different Pages, documents open in Pages v5.6.1, and copy/paste the custom styles between the selected text in these documents by using the Format menu.

  • Firefox does not remove expired cookies

    I thought that all expired cookies should be removed automatically by the browser. but this isn't the way it happens in my Firefox (same behavior for different web sites).

    close Firefox and even restarting the computer didn't help.
    the only way to remove cookies expired since Firefox is: hand (which means I have to choose cookie in the privacy of the Firefox Options tab, and then press the 'Delete cookies' button).

    Well, the good news: expired cookies are ignored by the servers (tested with a user through my virtual server script), but for some unknown reason continue to be stored off in Firefox.

    Is it the way it should work?

    Between the bug reports, it seems that Firefox does not remove expired cookies automatically. This only happens if you exceed the maximum storage limit of 3000 cookies. Deletion of expired cookies seems to be something that would have to do in time of inactivity, because he made a start or close does not adversely affect performance.

  • exceptions list sites authorized to load the images, (permisions.sqlite?) is cleaned out of Firefox, or when I clear recent history. How to prevent this?

    My exception list for sites that are allowed to load images, (permissions.sqlite in the profile folder, I think) is allowed in release of Firefox, or when I clear recent history. These images remain blocked during the session. I never provide exceptions for cookies or pop-ups. I deleted the site preferences box and the other 2 boxes in the data area of the settings menu history, but the list is always cleared out. I've never had this problem until about a week ago and heading FF since 0.8 version.
    It's 12 FF, under Win XP.

    If you use a software like CCleaner cleaning then check the settings in the Firefox application.

    It is also possible that the permissions.sqlite is corrupted, then you can try to delete this file and let Firefox to create a new copy to see if that helps.

    • Do not use 'Clear history of Firefox closing' to clear the 'browsing history '.
    • Do not use "Clear recent history" to delete 'Cookies' and 'Site preferences.

    Compensation of the "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, windows pop up, installation of software and passwords.

  • When running Disk Cleanup, it does not remove anything to "Compress Old Files'.

    When I run my disk cleanup, it does not remove anything to "Compress Old Files' during cleaning.» Why not? I also need more disk space to defragment and I deleted all the programs that I don't use, but is not yet give me enough disk space.

    Compress old files not removes all files, compress files that are rarely or seldom used.

    If you get the low disk space, less than 15-20% free space, then you need to collect as much space as possible. However, the amount you get will not be a solution, only a temporary fix - it that.

    To add or remove programs and Windows components in Control Panel, you can uninstall programs as your plue no use - if you have. Not to be far uninstalling programs, you do not recognize, many elements are required for other programs work properly.

    You can also check to see how much space is reserved for the restoration of the system; by default, many GBs are usually reserved. Also disable hibernation as the file created can be 2-3 GB, sometimes even more.

    You must also consider moving your files and folders on a removable media, such as DVDs or an external hard drive. Still a great flash drive with 4 + GB of space can help, and their prices are reasonable these days.

    In addition to Disk Cleaner, you can consider running CCleaner. This is a free program that will remove the unnecessary and temporary files temporary Internet files of the most popular and many browsers other caches that can be cleaned safely.

    Since you are using Windows XP, there is a setting in CCleaner to remove the uninstallers of patches; These are the Windows Update files you've downloaded and installed over time and are there if you ever want to uninstall the update. But you can save these CD/DVD and then remove them safely from your system to recover the space. If you have ever removed one of these, you may be able to get beyond 1 GB of space.

    CCleaner

    If you decide to try it, by default, that almost everything in Windows Applications and is verified to be cleaned. You must first review the lists (they are compiled by what you have installed) and check/uncheck accordingly.

    Then click on analyze to see what will be removed (nothing is deleted when you click Analyze); When the scan is finished you can double-click on (or right click and select view detailed results) of the entries in the list to get more information.

    According to the detailed results, you can right click for options such as adding to the list of exclusions if you want the deleted item.

    Once that you are completely comfortable with your selections, you can click the run Cleaner button and then OK to put warn before vacuuming will run.

    CCleaner is also a registry cleaner that I don't recommend that you use - even if you have successfully run a registry cleaner in the past, it is quite possible that the next time will bring serious problems; they are not worth the risk...

    I know that this was not the miracle that you can have hoped, but personally recommended solution is a new, larger hard drive. In the case of desktop computers, an additional hard disk is useful for your personal files, especially for music, movies, photos and more.

    I hope this helps.
