Safari extensions are reset after reboot or stop smoking

Hey guys and girls!

I have an end 2013 15 inch rMBP El Capitan 10.11.2 running Version. It happened for about a year and now that I have some time to the school I want to dive in and try to fix it. Its driving me crazy!

I have an interesting problem that is really stumping me. I only have a three Safari extensions: RES (continuation of development of reddit), AdBlock, Waste No Time.

These are all parameters very sensitive especially Waste No Time extension. Whenever I have to restart or Quit Safari reset the settings of the extension. Extensions are still there, but the parameters are all back to the default. It's frustrating, as you can imagine. I must go to my block list for waste No Time, add my sites to whitelist to add block, etc...

As regards to troubleshooting goes, I tried removing the iCloud Keychain in the keychain support enforcement. It really helps for a while. I restarted the computer and settings remained the same. However, today, I rebooted the computer and BOOM all settings disappeared again. I tried to reinstall the extensions, and that doesn't change. Someone has ideas of how to do to solve this problem?

If you synchronize Safari via iCloud, try System Preferences/iCloud and turn off sync. Any change?

  • 29 Firefox: toolbar guard reset after reboot

    Hello

    I use Firefox 29 since the first beta, and I did several customization menu. But if I take the 'Star + favorite' icon to the next restart I find in its default location (that is, before the menu button).
    Other items added to the toolbar disappear after reboot as well.

    I tried to return to default and the problem persists.

    I also tried to delete the localstore.rdf file and the problem remains.

    The problem is somehow similar to the following

    https://Bugzilla.Mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=854226

    I prefer not to create a new profile since I many extensions, so I ask if there is another file, containing these customizations, what I could try to remove it.

    Thank you.

    Underpass, I'm sure you're problem is caused by one of your modules.

    Can you try to pin-point the offending module? I would suggest the following method:

    1. Cut the half of your add-ons (disable in the Add-ons Manager) and restart Firefox.
    2. If the problem is still there, turn off half of the other add-ons and restart Firefox.
    3. Continue step 2 as long as you can reproduce the problem.
    4. If the problem in not there anymore, the offending module is among the list you just disabled and should be easier to find.

    Thank you!

  • The calendar settings reset after reboot

    Hello

    Could someone please check if you have the same problem on your phone?

    Sony calendar resets the settings after reboot.

    For example, if I put "week begins on ' = 'Monday' and restart the phone, this setting will return to 'Sunday' (which is the default).

    I am now running Calendar 20.0.A.2.5, but I think that this bug existed before as well (even on my old V Xperia I think)

    P.S. I found this subject, but I did not understand the solution correctly or it does not work for me... I tried to disable the calendar app, but it did not help somehow...

    There were improvements made on this subject and if you update the 23.4.A.0.546 phone and use the latest Google Calendar app I hope not to have this problem more.

  • Parameters of system tray icons keep the reset after reboot

    Hello

    My system tray icon settings are lost whenever I restart my laptop.

    I tried to reset all settings, I tried to install the experimental fix Windows6. 1 KB979155-x 64.msu nothing works.

    I also tried the following registry settings that now I have no more than two keys mentioned and I do not know if they had to be re-created after I cancelled them.

    1. Click Start , type regedit in the Search box and press ENTER.

      If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click allow .

    2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
      Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify HKEY_CURRENT_USER
    3. In the Details pane, click the IconStreams registry entry.
    4. On the Edit menu, click delete , and then click Yes .
    5. In the Details pane, click the PastIconsStream registry entry.
    6. On the Edit menu, click delete , and then click Yes .
    7. Exit Registry Editor.
    8. Restart the Explorer.exe process. To do this, follow these steps:
      1. Press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC.
      2. On the process in the Task Manager tab, click the process explorer.exe and then double click on end process .
      3. On the file menu, click new task (run) , type Explorer and click OK .
      4. Exit Task Manager.

    The only option is either to have all the icons in the sawn system tray which takes 3\4 of my task bar or do them all hidden which is a pain in the neck because I have to open the "new taskbar" every time.

    I hope someone can help me.

    Thank you :D

  • Audio-Midi Setup reset after reboot

    Hello

    I have the problem, very frustrating that my settings in configuring audio-midi-keep the reset with every reboot.

    So I tried the com.apple.audio.AudioMIDISetup.plist in Preferences, but there is no files and no Audio folder.

    It seems that Mac OS X problem create this configuration file.

    Please triple - click anywhere in the line below on this page to select:

    Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

  • Files and folders created in the root of C: are deleted after reboot on computers with AppStacks attached.

    Users using Visual Studio had created the C:\work folder to store projects.  After the restart, whatever it is created at the root of C: had disappeared. Is this normal behavior or the result of one or more of installation contained in the C:\ root and thus managed AppStacks by AppStacks.    Is there anyway to tell that AppStack could be the cause in addition to test each individually?

    Thank you

    It's actually expected as the operating system behavior is essentially be virtualized when an AppStack is attached. All changes to the operating system are stored in a folder called SVROOT on the volume system (C :). This folder becomes "visible" when an AppStack is attached and therefore virtualization is enabled.

    Why microsoft does not solve this problem?

    We bought their product and it is not working properly.

    I used to have more than 200 icons/shortcuts on my desktop. Now and then, they have moved/transferred by themselves. It's a pain in the you know where, when trying to put them back to where I wanted them.

    I found this tutorial and used. It worked. (I use Windows 7 now).

  • After that windows 7 update kb/3006137, all extensions are disabled.

    It is the second time I installed an update of windows 7 and all my extensions are disabled with no button to activate the extension window. The last time I reinstalled all, which is a pain. This time that it happened after installing update "kb/3006137." I use Firefox 36.0. Windows 7 64-bit.
    All the solutions to this problem? I don't like the idea to go back before the update, since the critical updates are critical.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

    Delete the files (extensions.json, extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

    New files will be created if necessary.

    See "extension corrupted files:

    If you see disabled extensions or is not compatible in ' Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button at the left end of the search bar to check if there is an update available compatibility.

    If this did not help, then also delete the files addons.json and addons.sqlite possible.

  • Firefox extension: 'TrueSuite 5.2.500.16' stopped working after the last update of firefox (30.0), although subject: said plugin activated. No difficulty to make it work?

    Firefox extension: 'TrueSuite 5.2.500.16' stopped working after the last update of firefox (30.0), although subject: said plugin activated.

    I tried to reset firefox and search for similar problems, unfortunately found nothing.

    It is also weird empty space before the address in the address bar

    other extensions and addons seems to work very well.

    Firefox 30 spent some less commonly used "Always turned on" plugins "asking to activate. To check and change this to TrueSuite, you can use the page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Then on the right, check the setting on the right side of TrueSuite.

    Any difference?

    Note to other readers: the original poster had to leave Firefox and start it again until it is actually entered into force.

  • My pages in Firefox are expire after 10 minutes, and a gray overlay appears on the entire page. Why this is happening and how I can stop this?

    Since upgrading to Firefox 25.0.1 yesterday, my open pages are time after exactly 10 minutes and be covered by a gray overlay. I can't use the page until I update it. It is extremely annoying and does not appear to be caused by an extension or an add-on. Please tell me how to stop this annoying and unpleasant problem!

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

  • I have Safari 9.1, El Capitan. The changes I make in the Safari preferences are not saved after that I close the program. There is no such thing as a Library/Preferences/Safari. What should do?

    I have Safari 9.1, El Capitan. The changes I make in the Safari preferences are not saved after that I close the program. There is no such thing as a Library/Preferences/Safari. What should do?

    I think you're looking in the root folder not your home folder.   Tilde ~ in front of the first slash indicates the folder.

    Try this...

    Quit Safari.

    Open a Finder window. In the Finder menu bar, click go > go to folder

    Type or copy paste the following text:

    ~/Library/preferences/com. Apple.Safari.plist

    Click OK, and then move the com.apple.Safari.plist file to the trash.

    Restart Safari to test.
