• When I select "keep without history", firefox will restart but does not save it.

  I use the french version so maybe that some translations are not correct. what I'm trying to do is to forefow delete or simply not save history after that I go to a page. It is said that firefow must restart to save the change, I agree, and when it restarts, nothing is recorded. I also tried to say not "restart" with no effect different however it should work, but as explained, this isn't. I can also change the page that opens when I run firefox for the same reasons: I save 'open a blank page', say ok, the option page closes, but when nothing opened changed again.

  Hello

  Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

  Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

  1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
  2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
  3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
     • Windows:
       • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
       • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
     • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
     • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
  4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
     1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
     2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

  More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.

  WARNING: Uninstaller or the use of Firefox and not run a third remover as part of this process, because who could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. These can be recovered, unless they have been backed up on an external device!

• How to restore a previous session after firefox closed and deforested browsing history, is still any chance to get it there?

  Accidentally closed down the pc and firefox did not return with option restore previous session in the first screen even in history-Restory previous session is gray. My settings are own history after closing firefox.
  Y at - it no change to return on my tabs from previous session even browsing history has been cleaned? I'd appreciate your help!

  In general, FireFox will behave in 1 of 3 ways when restarting after a stoppage.

  1 kill Shutdown
  This occurs when the FireFox process ends with a TerminateProcess() appeal or if the process of FireFox crashes. It's a dirty, no cleaning is done. When restarting after this FireFox will show a dialog "well, this is embarrassing' with options to restore the items selected from the previous session.

  2 force Shutdown
  This occurs when another process ask FireFox to shut down cleanly (for example, a reboot of the PC) by a call to ExitProcessEx() and does not ask confirmation of the user. Normally, when this type of shutdown happens, Firefox will just restore all tabs and sessions without asking. However if Firefox is set automatically delete the history on shutdown, it may not. I suspect that this is your case. I would suggest to the FF team remove that history should be ignored in this case, only a stop of the user must delete the history.

  3 judgment of the user.
  That's when said user Firefox close (by selecting exit or by closing all the tabs etc...). Confirmation is requested to close all tabs (if enabled and more than 1 tab is open). When the computer reboots, nothing is restored.

  Unfortunately, if you have enabled clear auto history, there is no way to recover the previous session. I'm sorry.

  After doing a full restore on my Macbook Air of Time Machine, Safari is not displayed no browsing history, or he saves history after that I left Safari.

  Perhaps, you just need to wait for a while for Firefox download.

  Perhaps, it is an extension/plugin slowing your Firefox.

  When I close Firefox in the evening, it closes slowly and uses 50% of CPU. It unloads after several (30? 60?) seconds.

• Can I transfer my photos on iCloud and always keep them on my Mac?

  Yes. Indeed if you use iCloud photo library and delete a picture of the Photos app on your Mac, it will be also deleted icloud.

  If you open the preferences of Photos and click on iCloud at the top of the preferences window and turn on iCloud photo library and also select the 'download for the Mac originals"rather than the"Optimize Mac Storage"option, the original size will be kept on your Mac.

• Firefox does not delete browsing history in the address bar

  No matter what you with Firefox in clearing the browser history by going to the history-> delete history, recent and all delete or reset FF by accessing information from troubleshooting, Firefox does not browsing history. The Web site you have traveled still appear in the address bar.

  Several people have already complained about this (see thread https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/939028) and the response from the staff of Firefox is that it is be a malware. That's not true, I've seen versions of Firefox in own computers Windows and Mac with Firefox, do the same thing, or rather not do what it is supposed to do: clean browsing history.

  How dangerous is that. Where your privacy? Firefox must find a way to fix this glitch. Something tells me they do it on purpose because it has not been fixed after him complains.

• Impossible to download and reinstall the operating system after erasing HD

  Yesterday morning, my iMac won't start.  It was fine the night before.

  The progress bar reaches about two thirds to three quarters of the way to the end when the bar of progress disappears and I find myself with a gray screen. It does this by starting too.

  I followed the advice of Linc Davis at https://discussions.apple.com/message/21333265 (hash) 21333265 (Note - I can't find the symbol of hash on my keyboard key so if you if know where he is, please replace by in the link - oh (hash) and tell me where it's too please ;-)).

  I started the Revovery volume (now here actually).  Run Disk Utility/First aid finds no problem with MacIntosh HD (my boot drive). I can't find how to repair permissions.  The option no longer seems to be there. Reset NVRAM has nothing else that makes the iMac wonder my preferred language.

  I used download and reinstall OS option.  The first time I tried to re-download El Capitan, it took 15 minutes and 45 minutes to install.  Installation failed leaving me to the grey screen again.  I think that the Setup program itself was trying to restart the iMac when he got stuck in the same place I'm stuck.  I left it there for about six hours before I tried to restart manually.

  Tried to download the operating system again. This time, it was after using the recovery volume, select MacIntosh HD, by using erasing, then the option reinstall in THE.

  I did two times now.  The first time I tried 'Erase and re - install' the download bar has got to a point about a third of the way across, and then he stopped. Time of download bar gradually got more and more long, up to what I canceled it (when the display estimated download time is six and a half).  The internet connection was problematic, or the Mac had stopped download (similar to the earier progress bar).  The second attempt to delete and download, the download bar has not yet started to progress.

  My HARD drive has several volumes.

  1. The most important. My MacIntosh HD with OS 10.11.4 - El Capitan.
  2. The second, MacIntosh HD 2, is about 50 GB, a Mavericks installed on it.
  3. The third is 10.11.4 recovery volume.
  4. The fourth is another volume of recovery for the Mavericks.
  5. There is another called eDrive bulkhead.

  Apart from MacIntosh HD, with none of these volumes I problems in starting up (with the possible exception of the Mavericks resumed, that I have not tried to access all since the update to El Capitan).

  I used first aid utility disk several times, and no problems have been reported. I used the version of El Capitan permanently.

  I can't understand why, after erasing the MacIntosh HD to do it again, I can't get the iMac to download the MacOS and reinstall.

  A couple of clues-

  • After his clear utility drive always reports what is MacIntosh HD. (When I restart, the dialog "Select Start Drive" only shows the volume of the Mavericks and eDrive)
  • Disk utility also shows "Apple Disk Image/OS X Base System."  OF THE said that it is ejection. But this button does not work.  I suspect it's what might stop download me the installer and start again.

  I used e-drive to check the iMac and, in particular, the drive HARD; even performed a surface scan.  No problems have been reported.

  Your 2007 iMac is too old to download OS X, you need to install OS X since the recovery partition directly. If this does not work then Yes, something is wrong with your HD run Apple Hardware Test Mode Extended 2 - 3 times back to back, if errors appear which confirms what I said. You will need the original DVD that came with the computer in order to run it.

• How can I not "remember history" but still keep the history of end of seizure semi-automatic and password

  I checked the box to save the passwords and AutoComplete as well as "never remember history" however nothing is maintained, I only wanting to not keep my browsing history.

  Make sure that you do not use clear recent history to erase these data when you close Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Privacy: history: [X] clear history of Firefox closing > settings
  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/clear+recent+history

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

• Firefox not remember the form history.

  I put several times Firefox, remember history, to close Firefox and re-open later only to find that she has been restored using custom settings.
  The parameter to clear the history to the close is disabled and should not affect. But even once, the 'Firefox will', resets when I close Firefox.
  Firefox acts it on my desktop and my laptop, so should not be a problem with a particular computer.

  Both jscher2000 and cor - el.
  I found the problem. I use a program/app called Dashlane to manage my passwords. I used it for awhile and this problem is fairly recent.
  After having tried all your suggestions, I tried once more to "Refresh" Firefox, but this time I opened Firefox immediately after having updated and found the setting of the story remained on do not forget after closing and re-opening. Then I activated Dashlane and the problem reappeared. People with disabilities and disappeared again.
  So, it seems that there is a problem between Firefox and Dashlane that popped up after one or the other put out an update.
  Thanks for your help. I was tired of hitting my head and pulling out what remains of my hair.

• My seagate drive external drive keeps ejecting properly after installation of OS El Capitan

  My seagate external hard drive keeps ejecting properly after installation of OS El Capitan, it locks also towards the top and turns off, the ext drive when using, I have to restart my IMac 27 inches.  I have two ext hd who does very well for years before the installation of the operating system El Capitan

  If you have installed the Seagate Software, please delete and see if there is no change.

  Any third party software that is not installed on the App Store or by drag-and - drop in the Applications folder and uninstall by drag - move to the trash, is a modification of the system.

  Whenever you delete changes to the system, they must be eliminated completely, and the only way to do this is to use the uninstall tool, if any, provided by the developers, or follow their instructions. If the software has been removed incompletely, you may redownload or reinstall even to finish the job.

  I never install modifications of the system myself, and except as stated in this comment, I do not know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find this information.

  Here are some general guidelines to help you get started. Suppose you want to remove the so-called "BrickMyMac" (a hypothetical example). First of all, menu using the product, check if there is one, for instructions. Not finding here, look at the Web site, let's say www.brickmymac.com. (Maybe it's not the name real site, if necessary, search the Web for the name of the product). If you don't find anything on the Web site or in your search, contact the developer. While you are waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be a request here as "Uninstall BrickMyMac." If this is not the case, open "BrickMyMac.pkg" and look for an uninstall button. The uninstall program can also accessible by clicking on the button customize, when one exists.

  Back up all data before making any changes.

  Generally, you will need to restart the computer in order to perform an uninstall. Until you do this, there may be no effect, or the unpredictable effects.

  If you can't remove the software in any other way, you will have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third party software, unless you're sure you know how to uninstall in the contrary case, it can create problems which are very difficult to solve.

  Try to remove the complex system of changes by hunting for files by name, often will not work and can make the problem worse. The same goes for 'utilities' as the 'AppCleaner"designed to remove software.

• How to stop a vi running and always keep its vi reference valid

  Hi all

  I open a vi reference and need to dynamically execute and stop this vi. Problem is after I use the 'Abort Vi' method to stop it, his reference is no longer valid and I need to reopen the next time I want to run it.

  Is there a way to stop the vi running and always keep its vi reference valid?  While the next time I may use the method "RunVI" to run it and do not need to reopen it.

  Thank you.

  Anne

  Ben, I think he's talking about the VI Abort METHOD, not the button abandon.  I wrote a small example using run a VI, waiting, VI an abortion, then run a VI again, and it worked.  The reference did not become invalid.  You must make sure to wire a constant false entry Auto has the method to execute a VI.
