• Reinstalling Windows: Save preferences and settings CC

  After hours and hours of trying to diagnose a number of problems with my Windows 8.1, I have finally conceded and is going to be reinstalling a fresh copy of the operating system that you are clean.

  I want to know if anyone can tell me how I can save my preferences and settings for my Adobe CC programs so that I can jump the right to use them again as if nothing has changed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  I currently use Bridge, Photoshop, Indesign, Illustrator and Acrobat.

  I would like to know if there is a way to export my workspace and reimport them on the new installation.

  I have a few Photoshop plugins I'd like to reimport.

  Other valuable parameters should I also know as well.

  Thank you for your time.

  Hi JayVilla,

  Whenever you choose to uninstall an application of Creative Cloud desktop application, you must select the option 'No, keep the app preferences', so that your app preferences keeps when you reinstall.

  

  See the migration presets in Photoshop CC link to migrate your Plugins and other older versions of Photoshop presets.

• Cannot save preferences and select mask question

  I'm unable to use the new 2015,5 Select cc and mask button, I get the error:

  Unable to apply Select the workspace and mask because the disk is not available.

  I've deleted and reinstalled Photoshop 2015.5, when I initially installed it I deleted all previous versions of CC (2014 / 2015), but this has not helped, now, when I'm out photoshop I get the following message is displayed:

  Could not save preferences because the file is locked, you don't have the necessary access permissions or another program is using the file. Use the "Get Info" command in the Finder to make sure that the file is unlocked and you are allowed to access the file. If the problem persists, save the document to another file or duplicate in the Finder.

  It's perhaps related?

  I can put in discs from scratch, but because of this error message that appears when closing photoshop and then when I restart all drives are disabled in preferences such as Scratch disks, and I have to choose my discs from scratch once again (which will be then "forgot" the next time I'm out CC because of this error message.

  It's corrected now.

  I went to the FINDER > GO kept the alt/option key in, and then selected LIBRARY and chose LIBRAY > PREFERENCES > CC 2015.5 settings in Adobe Photoshop and then press Command/Apple and letter "I" and selected under sharing, everyone and set to READ & WRITE it was put to custom, and that fixed the two issues "

  Hi Jason,

  Can't you see it's not "SECURE" in the title bar for documents where the tools are grayed out? If you do, which would indicate that the document has been password protected and perhaps editing restrictions.

• Firefox won't save, preferences, passwords, bookmarks, or bookmarks &amp; imported settings of Safari.

  Firefox won't save bookmarks, passwords or preferences. He also won't save Favorites and imported settings of Safari. I tried the suggestions of help, but nothing seems to work. All the settings seem to be correct. I reloaded the software several times. When I allow Firefox import settings of Safari, it takes more than 40 minutes and then loses everything when I restart Firefox. I tried to start Firefox in safe mode, but it does not help.

  Experimental features

  The problems are gone now. However, I'll never know exactly what that caused them. When I restarted the computer in safe mode problems continue. But when I tried to restart my computer does not recognize the hard drive in safe mode or in normal mode.

  It is possible that the Firefox problems were caused by a faulty hard drive.

  I was able to rebuild the directory with Disk Warrior and transfer my files, but the disk would not boot. Fortunately, I had a spare hard drive. I installed and reloaded all my software and data from scratch. I also downloaded the latest version of Firefox. Firefox works fine now.

  Thanks for all your suggestions. They may not have fixed this particular problem, but I learned a few new tricks from you to solve other problems.

• How can I configure the printer preferences and not just margins, etc.

  The default setting for my printer is A5 (8.5X5.5' and every time when you print a page (document) of Firefox, I have to set the printer to letter-size preferences and which tray to print.) Is there a way for me have Firefox do for me?

  Thanks, uncle Dewey

  From topic: config
  
  It's preference that tells Firefox saves the last modification of the settings.
  
  Print save_print_settings = True - (by default): save the print settings after each print job

  This setting has to be changed in about:config if you would want to switch it to False.
  

  And as jscher2000 said.
  
  Print.printer_name.print_paper_height
  
  Print.printer_name.print_paper_width
  
  -the values are stored as measures either inch or metric or not according to U.S. paper sizes (letter, legal, custom, etc.) or 'A' type of paper sizes.

  These two settings are saved in the selection of paper made in the dialogue window of the printer properties for the printer that can be opened from the Properties button in the "native print dialog" window of Firefox which is what you see when you start printing in Firefox via {Ctrl + P} or one of the menu items print.

  These two settings are automatically set or changed with each print job which is sent to the printer. There is no way to set a permanent default paper size, the default is the last used paper sizes. 
  
  Right, wrong, or indifferent, Firefox does not honor the system-wide default paper or printer settings you make for the printer in your operating system. In Firefox the "last used" is the "default".
  

• Firefox will not save preferences &amp; crashes when opening files

  Two main issues here, but they can be linked together somehow.

  First Firefox always wonder if I want to contribute to send performance data every time I open the browser. I followed all the advice in the article 'FF won't save my preferences' and vain. I have now uninstalled FF and deleted all traces (Inc. in hidden folders). Now re-installed, it does exactly the same thing and now won't save my homepage either.

  Secondarily, firefox always crashes when I try and import and export bookmarks without fail. Also often crashes when you press a button download, for example gmail attachments files or post image Facebook to file. This has happened for some time and is still, even after wiping everything...

  Try creating a new profile as a test to check whether your profile is the source of the problems.

  See "create a profile":

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/Profile-Manager-create-and-remove-Firefox-profiles
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues

  If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile in the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

• In the new Firefox 4, what happned to the Save tabs and functionality of quitting smoking, is there a way I can still use this feature?

  I just downloaded Firefox 4 and I got a problem on my Norton spyware toolbar is not incompatible, but anyway, the most important thing that makes me choose Firefox on any other web browser is that I am able to save tabs and then exit. I think it was more great things because I could run my laptop off and save energy and when I got home I'm cold to take back what I what to do. My question is simply is you never have it save tabs and leave the new service or at least a way people would turn the function on will.

  One of the changes in Firefox 4: by default Firefox 4 does not display the warning "Save tabs and exit" then to the closure of several tabs, but it can be turned on again by changing some preferences.

  • Record of the tabs was not removed from Firefox 4, but it works a little differently.
  • By default, Firefox 4 will not ask to save tabs, but instead it will always save your tabs on the output unless you're in private browsing mode. You can restore the next time by:
    1. by clicking on the Firefox button > history > "restore previous Session ', or
    2. type of Subject: House in the URL bar and press the Enter key, then press the button "restore previous Session."
  • Note: This was a decision by the developers. On this forum, we are all volunteers without compensation here to help other users. Develop them and employees of Mozilla/Firefox rarely, if ever visit here.

  Things to check:

  1. Browsing history must be saved
     • Button Firefox: Firefox button > Options > Options > privacy > [X] Remember my browsing history
     • Menu bar: Tools > Options > privacy > [X] Remember my browsing history
  2. Also, make sure that you do not erase "Browsing history" when you use clear recent history or when Firefox is closed
     • Using clear recent history
       • Button Firefox: Firefox button > history > clear recent history
       • Menu bar: Tools > clear recent history
     • When Firefox is closed
       • Button Firefox: Firefox button > Options > Options > privacy (verified) > settings
       • Menu bar: Tools > Options > privacy (verified) > settings
       • See: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History
  3. Make sure that you are not in private browsing mode or in private browsing mode permanent:
     • See: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Private%20Browsing
  4. If you have the Tab Mix Plusextension, and then clear the built-in session restore.

  To display the message "save tabs and exit" when closing multiple tabs, you can do the following:

  1. Type of topic: config in the URL/address bar and press the Enter key
  2. Accept the warning message (promise to be careful)
  3. Open the preferences/list page
  4. Filter = browser.tabs.warnOnClose
  5. If its value is set to false, double-click top (in the lower panel) to toggle its value to true
  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the 3 following preferences also:
     • browser.warnOnQuit
     • browser.warnOnRestart
     • browser.showQuitWarning
       • Note: last pref is new in Firefox 4 b 12, may need to add (boolean)

• How to customize the display of Windows Explorer to always be details and sort in descending for windows order save under and attach a file?

  It is in this way for some applications such as Word and Excel, but not for others, such as Adobe Acrobat, Office Picture Manager and gmail. How can I get the attachment save as and file dialogs to always get to see the detail value?

  I think that I thought about it!  Is there a way to have the Save As or tie with a particular view, but only developed dialog boxes for Windows programs. It doesn't seem to work with acrobat, google mail, etc.

  In the dialog box after selecting Save as or Attach, modify display and sort columns as you wish. Then hold down the CTRL key while you leave the window. The next time you go into it should reflect what you put last. Don't ask me why this works, or why it only works with Microsoft products. I got this tip on another site.

• Close programs to prevent the loss of information. Your computer is low on memory. You save files and close programs. Java (TM) Platform SE binary Windows Media Player

  Hello

  I keep getting the following error message, and leterally having my computer off over and over again, even if I added 1 GB of RAM (now 3 total RAM) mor and also added a 8 GB SD card as more power:

  Close programs to prevent the loss of information.  Your computer is low on memory.  You save files and close programs.  Java (TM) Platform SE binary Windows Media Player

  I did research on the various search engines to know that many face the same problem, with a variety of possible solutions, but so far, none work.  We suggest that I go to Regedit and change the permissions of the user and then delete the old files, after I import them.

  Needless to say, I am just a user and have just a bit of technical knowledge.  The local PC repair shop in my town has no idea what to do.  For anyone who has a solution to this problem, help will be greatly appreciated!

  First of all, unless you know EXACTLY what you do and WHY you do it. I personally recommend never do anything in regedit. I consider myself a moderate to advanced computer user and a moderate user of windows. And I always stay away from regedit, if I can, because you can seriously screw things if you don't know what you're doing... Although, to be honest most of the settings will not have a devastating drama.

  It seems to me that this is a memory leak in the program, you will get this error message to make sure that your computer will just crash, because if she is running out of RAM... Well it will crash.

  If you have a 2 and a 1 GB for a total of 3 GB, I recommend the upgrade once more and just round up to a nice 4 (this is the most of memory a 32-bit system can handle in total)

  Works of memory in a way that you see really only a few performance jump with memory dual channel, the only way to have that is really striking the rods of same in each slot.

  There isn't really a reason that this happens every time, except that simply your computer is low on MEMORY, when your computer says this means RAM, not disk memory storage area.

  If you clean your computer of the programs you never use and stop using windows media player (itunes is better in my opinion, even if you don't have an ipod), you can see an improvement, but to really isolate the problem, I recommend simply opening your task manager as soon as you start your computer (ctrl + alt + delete usually gives you the option or it opens directly) otherwise you can do start-> RUN taskmgr.exe , OR type taskmgr.exe in the search box and press on enter.

  Then, look at the column of memory as I said it sounds like a program has a leak, and you will see that is because memory will begin at low/normal and then numbers just keep climbing...

  Also, make sure that your computer recognizes all 3 GB or RAM. in Task Manager if you have access to the performance tab, under physical memory must be a thing called Total, 3 GB = 3074. If this is not an option in your reason, you can go under Accessories/System Tools system information (on the start menu). (may take a while to load) but on the home page, you should see something that indicates the amount of TOTAL PHYSICAL MEMORY. You want to read this / 3GB or 3074 MB.

  Hope this helps some!

  I recommend to remove all programs, you are ready to, especially those that you never use. Do a complete uninstall. Then start installing windows clean (download google) just to make sure that the program has been removed. then go start--> run msconfig OR just type msconfig in the search and click on go (I don't know if you're running XP or Vista/7)

  In the msconfig dialog, you should see a section that says startup. Don't forget to remove programs that you do not first. Disable startup programs, you use every DAY. Don't go turn off all if windows needs some process to run, and some processes don't effect anything. But if you're curious, you should be able to google all of startup items and see what it's related to and why you do or that you don't need.

  Good luck! Sorry, I'm everywhere with this response.

• What is "PNCRT.dll" and why should I install on my computer?

  I received a 'pop-up' telling me that I could not open a file in particular, because I have no "PNCRT.dll" installed in my computer.  I have no idea what it is - where can I get all this - and why I need?  I've never seen this type of popup before.  I use windows 7-64, and my computer is 2 years old.

  Hello

  1. Have you installed programs recently that are the cause of the problem?
  2. Don't you see any name in the error window program?
  3. What is the full error message?
  4. When exactly do you get the popup error?

  PNCRT.dll contains standard functions of the C development language interface. No system like pncrt.dll processes are created from the software you have installed on your system

  Step 1: Re-register the dll file

  1. Hold down the 'Windows' key and press 'R '.
  2. Type 'regsvr32 pncrt.dll' in the dialog box, then click on 'OK' to save the file.
  3. Restart your computer system.

  Since the higher upgrade Pro 2015.3 I can't save preferences. By clicking on the OK button just remains blue and that I have to cancel out. The changes are NOT saved?

  I found a fix on my system, a file permissions issue. While in the hold of the Finder OPTION and click the menu go to the library (takes you to the folder of the user of the library, then go to Preferences > Adobe > Premiere Pro > 10.0) Make sure that the Adobe Premiere Pro and 10.0 files have read/write permissions at all levels (System, wheel and all) by selecting each folder, click on command I. Once I did, first wrote in the Preferences folder. A clue is that my 10.0 file was completely empty, and he should have the files written by Premiere Pro, if it were to write to this folder. I hope this helps you
