  • With some sites (not all) that require passwords, how can I get Firefox to resume registration of passwords when the site is not in the list of exceptions?

    For some banking sites that require passwords, I'm 99.3% sure that I have at one point, never said 'Remember password'. Now, I want to change my mind.

  • Wi - Fi pass drops after iMac sleep mode

    Help, please. I had a lot of Wi - Fi problems after upgrade to Yosemite. I know that many others have had similar problems and the Genius bar was not able to find a solution. I get the same "I never heard of this problem before" and then run simple diagnostic tests. Here are some features:

    -iMac 21.5 "2011 Office

    -OS X Yosemite 10.10.5

    -Have had problems with connectivity Wi - Fi based on the current version works, but the worst problems came with Yosemite

    -iPad 2, Asus computer laptop and HP printer work fine. I tested the Modem and the router, they work well

    The problem: after my iMac Sleep Mode wake up my network connection is interrupted. I have to physically click the Wi - Fi connection and wait it is the signal (it takes about 30 seconds). It is not a big problem, but it becomes very frustrating after what happens every time. I have other users in households who also have this problem and they are not very good with the iMacs.

    Someone had this problem and was able to remedy?

    Thank you in advance,

  • How do you prevent Firefox to go sleep and re - enter password required?

    The screen, I watch turns off after a while if no activity and I need to type my password to return... My computer settings are all set to never sleep or turn off.

    This isn't Firefox. It is the computer screen saver.

    • Set the screen saver for a longer timeout
    • Disable the screen saver asking for a password

    PS, what Firefox is doing during that time?

    Hi SteveSJS,

    I see that you are having problems with your Mac restarts once you press the ESC key to wake your Mac from sleep. I understand you want to your Mac to wake up from its sleep without problem. I'll be happy to help you.

    The first thing I want you to do is a SMC reset, and then test the issue out by putting the Mac to sleep and wake it again.

    Reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac.

    If the problem is still there, please start Mac up in safe mode and then put your Mac to sleep and wake up then as you normally would. Check if the problem persists. So go ahead and restart your Mac to pick it up on your normal user account.

    Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning

    Alternatively, you can test to see if this problem occurs in an another user account on your Mac. For more information on the implementation of a different user account, please see:

    How to test a question in another account on your Mac.

  • IMac sleep update af 2016-004

    After that I applied yesterday the security fix for 2016-004 to my Imac (dec 2010 model) I can not enter the mode 'sleep'.  I tried to do a safe boot (found a note on the net, that it has solved the problem for some) but this isn't for me

    When I try to use mode 'sleep' - the screen turns white as usual and my external USB drive turn off - but I sounds like the fan in the Imac does not turn down. After a few minutes it back on the screen

    Until yesterday, everything worked very well - and the update of security is the only change that I made

    Any ideas?

  • My iMac sleep

    I have an iMac 27 "end 2015 a few weeks ago, and the sleep function worked fine. But all of a sudden yesterday, he refuses to go to sleep. I used to use the shortcut keyboard option + command + eject, but it does not work. The screen just turns off. Then I tried to choose "sleep" from the Apple menu, but the same thing. The screen turns off, but the drive never turns down. I know it's not instantaneous, but I leave 30 seconds and it will not turn it down. It continues to run until I have press a key or click the mouse. Already, I went through the evolution of the system preferences. Nothing is shared by the computer. "Wake for network access" is disabled. 'Allow Bluetooth wake up' is disabled. My keyboard is a USB Apple wired one. I quit all programs and applications and it will not sleep. I moved the cursor "display off" from 10 minutes to 1 and then back to 10 minutes. I left alone; the screen is off, but the disks never turned down after several hours. If I want to leave for a while, I let the music so he can't SLEEP. But for the last test, no music was played. I checked if something prevented from sleep in the activity monitor, but they are all the 'no '. Energy saving, "Prevent computer to sleep automatically when the screen is off" is not checked. "Put hard drives to sleep when possible" is checked. I use the same settings I used for on an another iMac. It's very frustrating because it was working fine the other day. I turned off the computer and unplugged it overnight and it will not sleep. Anyone know what is happening?

  • When I turn on my computer, already set up profiles disappear and are replaced by 'Kiosk' and 'other users' options that require passwords. I can get into 'other users' and find my previous user accounts, but lose them again after the reboot.

    I bought a laptop with Windows 7 installed a few days ago. I started to set up user accounts, administrator and a guest. So far, I had been able to shut down and restart with the accounts of users even reappear. I turned on my computer and two 'user accounts' had replaced my previous. Named "kiosk", which requires a user name and password which I do not have access, and one named 'other users' that requires a user name and password. I type in comments and no password and then I can access the guest account. When I disconnect my administrator profile is available next to my usual guest account. Restart the "kiosk" and "other accounts" reappear. If it's any help, as soon as I put on my computer, I had named MDX kiosk and administrator accounts. I deleted the account kiosk MDX. I don't know if this is related at all. It is not necessarily a problem, but a disadvantage however and I panicked when this popped up on my computer.

    Yes, you can uninstall MDX (it is called the digital experience of Microsoft) and it will remove the kiosk account and no trace of it, and then restart your machine. All other accounts on the machine should stay, but I would like to make a backup first. This should solve your problem. Associated with the store, you bought from should have done that for you, why they failed, I have no idea (we are instructed to do before the release of the machine to customers). If you don't mind asking me, where did you buy the machine?

  • Selection of the language makes the required password field

    Hello

    I use jDeveloper 12.1.2

    I have a login page with name, password selection and the language of the user (component SelectOneChoice - soc1). I have a value change listener in the field of languages selectonechoice which will set the locale to the newly selected language. I put partial triggers on the name field and the password of the user for soc1. It comes to make the labels the user name and password appear in the selected language. This makes the password field if necessary even if there is value in the field. I also noticed that this occurs only when the language is other than English.

    My lines jsff for the user name, password, and language are-

    "< af:inputText label =" #{loginBean.usernameLabel} "id ="it1"value =" #{loginBean.username} "required ="true ".

    showRequired = "true" autoComplete = "off" partialTriggers = "soc1.

    / >

    "< af:inputText label =" #{loginBean.passwordLabel} "id ="it2"value =" #{loginBean.password} "required ="true ".

    secret = "true" showRequired = "true" autoComplete = "off" partialTriggers = "soc1.

    / >

    < af:selectOneChoice label = 'language '.

    "value =" #{loginBean.Language} "id ="soc1"binding =" #{loginBean.soc1} "autoSubmit = 'true '.

    valueChangeListener = "#{loginBean.localeChangeListener} '"

    >

    < af:selectItem label = 'English' value = "" id = "si1" binding = "#{loginBean.si1}" / >

    < af:selectItem label = 'French' value = 'fr' id = "si2" binding = "#{loginBean.si2}" / >

    < / af:selectOneChoice >

    The value change listener code is-

    Private Sub changeLocale (language: String) {}

    This.setLanguage (Language);

    Locale newLocale = new local (language);

    FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance ();

    context.getViewRoot () .setLocale (newLocale);

    }

    {} public void localeChangeListener (ValueChangeEvent vce)

    changeLocale (vce.getNewValue m:System.NET.SocketAddress.ToString (()))

    }

    I have the tag f: view with the locale defined as local = "#{loginBean.locale}". "

    Whenever I change the language other than English, the password field is back with the error required, even if there is value in the field. He can't if I choose the language than English. can anyone shed light on what I'm doing wrong here.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think you are missing immediate = "true" in the selectOneChoice.

    If this does not work, check this post; ADF and JHeadstart: skip validation on selectOneChoice selection
