Mac remove cookies on 'Close' vs. ' Quit?

On a Mac. I have set cookies to remove the closure of Firefox. BUT clicking on close (red X radio button) is not like on a PC. The Mac it basically puts in the dock as a minimum. So, I have to exit the application. Is it possible to delete/remove the cookies and cache to the ' closing?

Preferences to clear the browser cookies/history occur when you EXIT the application (for example Firefox) completely. By clicking on the red button closes the current window (i.e. all tabs of this group), but Firefox is still technically open: as most Mac apps work. For compensation to take effect, you must quit the app (Cmd + Q, or in the main menu, Firefox > quit Firefox)

  • I can't delete cookies with this version of foxfire. I see not the button Delete. How to remove cookies?

    I was always able to delete cookies in Firefox. With the latest version, I don't see a delete button or move the slider to display a button Delete. How to delete cookies without a button actually remove visible?

    How do you remove usually cookies? In the Firefox Cookies dialog box, there are two buttons at the bottom: all delete and delete the selection. If you're used to a button Delete, it could be that you used an add-on to delete cookies.

    You can access the dialog box Cookies for the current site using the Page Info dialog box. Either:

    • Right click and select View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies".
    • (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > 'view the Cookies '.
    • Click on the globe or padlock icon in the address bar > additional information > "View Cookies".

    In the dialog that opens, the site current is automatically entered in the top search box, so you can delete cookies from the site individually. If you want to see all THE cookies, you can disable this dialog.

    Does it work?

  • When I go on the settings of cookies and close the window, then I go back and it's still on the old settings. How can I keep it changed to what I want?

    I'm trying to let him stay on Firefox will: use of custom settings for history. But when I close the window and come back, he's back on the Firefox will: remember the story. I don't know how to save my changes to keep it on the custom settings.

    The "use settings customized for history" allows to see current history and cookies settings, but select this setting is not to make changes to the parameters of the history and cookies.

    Firefox displays the "use the custom settings for history" as an indication that at least one story and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that the changes have been made.

    If all the history settings are default, custom settings are hidden and see you "conservation rules: (never) don't forget history."

    "Never remember history" means that private browsing is active and "Always use private browsing mode" Gets a check mark.

  • I need to remove "minimize, maximize, close" buttons on the mode full screen

    I can remove all the buttons (like refresh, back, forward, address bar, etc.), but the small right 3 "minimize, maximize, close" buttons I can't delete, how can I do it with userChrome.css or another option.
    Because I can close firefox out of the full screen and clicking on the menu of archive with the ' Alt ' key.
    I don't want this small 3 buttons, I can hide and show permanent.

    I hope to explain correctly
    Thank you very much

    Add code to userChrome.css below default @namespace.

  • Book of fonts (Mac) remove the duplicate and messed up fonts families of fonts in Dreamweaver

    I use Mac OS X 10.6 with Dreamweaver CS4 (I would upgrade but I can't afford it right now)...

    I had a problem with some new fonts (a messed of the police of the workspace in Dreamweaver), but I found the police and removed.

    So, then I crossed font (Mac application to manage fonts) book and was alerted to the fact that there are several duplicates.

    I allowed the font book to "solve" these duplicates.

    A file that I had opened before is now does not appear correctly (now the police is 'off') and DW asks me to authorize the use of an obscure font (because the police he used before that I guess is absent).

    -If it were that easy to move these fonts deleted in the directory I would, but I emptied the Recycle Bin, so this does not work.

    -J' I had my original disc of Creative Suite stolen, so re - install programs is not possible.

    Question:

    Is there anywhere I can download just the fonts required for CS4, so that things will return to normal?

    A trial of CS6 installation would allow me to reacquire these missing fonts?

    What can I do to fix this?

    Thank you once again to try... However, I solved the problem myself.

    As I said, this font Babylon 5 had nothing to do with this problem. I have just referred, because that was the reason why I chose to review ALL my fonts (with the font book) then that caused this problem.

    When you install the Creative Suite (any version), there are included fonts. If some of these fonts are deleted, you can run into problems. Just like how a seemingly random police (Babylon 5) installed, without ANY intention for use with Dreamweaver, caused the workspace spontaneously, change and to use this font! This issue is also unique for me. I found other issues about the same topic, so once I realized the problem, I posted a response and immediately get a response from a member who would be stuck with that issue for more than 4 months (and was thrilled that the removal of the police solved the problem).

    I only mention this, because there are a few quirks really special with the compatibility fonts and products Adobe. Some are known and noticed on the site, but others leave customers frustrated and without support to solve the problem. Its obviously not your fault, but rather something Adobe should address.

  • Is it possible to unlock the screen or the mac itself if you close too hard?

    My brother came and smacked down the lid on my MacBook. Now, it's just a black screen. The mac works, as the keyboard lights up, I can type stuff in and it makes noises.

    The screen is broken or is it just something wrong with the mac?

    Yes, looks like the screen is broken or something connected to it. Call your Apple store and make an appointment to check it out for you. They will give you an estimate to fix it for free.
