Wallpaper continues to change. Irritating.

For some strange reason, I see the background I see normally before I log in, then when I connect it changes to the El Captain one. I hate to go to the system preferences and must continue to change as a result of the background, I love. The way it works by this problem is really strange. I tested it by restarting and the background I love is always there. I wanted to test even more so I turned off my Mac for an hour and then an hour later I turn it back, always there. However, after several hours, it changes. I recently upgraded to OS X El captain in the hope that it would solve this problem. Help would be nice. THX.

  • Wallpaper continues to change at random

    Original title: wallpaper

    I have Widows Vista. I use personal photos and pictures I find online as my desktop wallpaper. Here lately, whenever I have use such a picture... a few hours later or the next day when I wake up, I notice my wallpaper was changed back to the previous! NOTE: If I use a background from WEBSHOTS, it does not change! I'm tired of always having to reset my desktop wallpaper to change again only for her. Can someone help me please? !! Thank you!! :)

    Hello
     
    (1) don't you make changes to your computer before the problem?

    (2) when the wallpaper and theme changes it? During hibernation?

    (3) do when you're working on an application? A third-party application could be causing the problem.

    (4) using a laptop? There are times that your laptop battery is low and the screen goes to the basic theme.
     
    This usually occurs on laptops according to adapter connected or if your laptop runs on a battery. To save a few, it usually changes the wallpaper on your computer automatically.
     
    If you do not want to change the wallpaper or themes, make sure that you have not set the time to change the wallpaper and theme or never put if you can.
    In the meantime, follow these steps.

    Step 1:
     
    You can follow the steps above that talks about a similar problem. However, this one is for Windows 7, which should also work for Windows Vista.

  • Firefox continues to change the url that I entered

    I've updated a Web site. When I paste the url in Firefox it keeps changing and display a different page.

    The one I want is http://megalithmovers.org/blog-2015-10-24.htm
    Firefox continues to change it to http://megalithmovers.org/blog-2015-01-24.htm
    The two pages are valid (they have the date in the url as YYYY-MM-DD)
    I know that the url is valid, that I stuck in other browsers. Somewhere FF has cached the page in January. Being too smart for that is good, it's settled I've mistyped the url and displays this page, not the one October.
    I deleted all the history of this site, but that makes no difference.

    Please don't tell me to restore the FF default settings - I'll have to re - install all Addons then.

    Hello

    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.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

  • "Title" bar continues to change color

    The "Title" bar continues to change color. I don't mind above all this except that one color is green and I hate this color!

    Is it possible to change this behavior?

    Hello

    I took a screenshot of my title bar in Firefox (Windows 7) and it marked with an arrow below. I think that is what changes the color on your machine?

    In Windows 8, the color of the bars title in all applications is determined by the operating system not Firefox. This varies according to the theme of your operating system, but by default, it is a kind of 'average' colors sampled in your background. This replaces the Aero translucent look of Windows 7.

    So detestable green color is most likely taken from your screen background image. To get rid of him the best bet is to change your background.

    If you wish to override the settings for Windows, you can try a Firefox theme:

    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/themes/

    Or you can change the color of the title bar with the code to userChrome.css

    Also, see this MozillaZine forum thread:

  • "Save Image under" continues to change directories

    "Save Image under" continues to change the location, it saves the file. As I go through the different pages and save some images, I noticed that sometimes it saves where I expect to, (the location that I recently selected when saving an image), but very often in the same session (which means that I've not closed and restarted FF), he decided to change the location of a directory that I used earlier , at the place where this has saved the previous file.

    I thought it would be something like a scenario, I opened 1-5 tabs, save images to A location. Then I save a file at location B, open 6 to 10 pages, save a file to the location a new. At this point, I expect that my files by default to A location, but perhaps pages 6 to 10 are now held B that are associated with them and they will default it there instead. I just test that and this isn't.

    It is also not extension (.jpg, .gif) that forces the change of location. I can't understand what triggers it.

    Does anyone know if there is another topic: config that we can change, (which replaces no doubt the next FF update in 5 minutes) to restore the appropriate behavior?

    This behavior started with the upgrade to 7 FF.

  • Windows continues to change user profile folder

    Hi all
     
    I'm facing a real headache. My computer continues to change user profiles folder every restart 2 or 3. For example, my user name is MSF\Bob. The user profile folder has been C:\Document & Settings\Bob. After a restart, Windows create a C:\Document & Settings\Bob.MSF then Bob.MSF.000 and Bob.MSF.001 folder and so on.
     
    Someone has an idea why this is happening and how I can prevent this?
     
    I thank very you much in advance!
     
    Best regards

    Easy question to answer.  You simply have a corrupted profile.

    When Windows detects a corrupted profile, it automatically generates a temporary with names profile as you describe.  Usually, these profiles are deleted when you connect your computer turned off, but not always.  The solution is quite simple.  You just need to recover your corrupt profile.   There are two general approaches.  One is to do a system restore to a point in time before the profile was first damaged.  The other usually involves the creation of a new user and moving profile data on to the new user (you may reset some of your settings).  To do this, choose one of the following articles and follow through:

    "How to recover damaged Windows XP user profile"
      <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/555473>

    "How to copy data from a corrupted to a new profile in Windows XP user profile"
      <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/811151 >

    "Windows XP problems if your profile is corrupted"
      <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326688 >

    HTH,
    JW

    PS: Corrupt profiles are almost always accompanied by alteration of the disc as well.  After your recovery, perform a check disk (chkdsk) with the "/ R" or "/ F" option

  • default printer continues to change without known reason

    I sometimes print from a laptop with Windows 7, but this change occurs even if I haven't printed anything the laptop so it is difficult to see how it would affect things.

    Anyone have any ideas?

  • In XP, zone continues to change TSA to CUT

    The zone continues to change the time in coordinated universal time. If I try to sync with time.windows.com the I get a message that an error has occurred (not specific). The computer is connected to the internet via a d-link router, but I don't think that is the problem because the other computers on the network are OK and I get the MS updates on this machine OK.

    I tried a fix and tried to restore to an earlier point... nothing works.  Is there another setting of time other than through the control panel that could be the substitution of my settings?

    I think that there is a problen with my this machine to connect to microsoft because I also have trouble updateing security essentials... get a connection failure error message.

    After digging a bit, I noticed that my area had been changed to English (Ireland)... I'm in the Canada. Since there is no central time (United States and Canada &) in Ireland my coumuter didn't know where I was. Don't know how the resgion had chanaged but everything is good again.

  • Screen resolution continues to change

    For the past few days Vista continues to change my screen resolution of 800 x 600 at startup, logon, to wake up or screen saver.  Normal resolution for my monitor is 1680 by 1050.  There are a few reboots to recover Vista decision, that I need a 800 by 600 screen.

    I downloaded and installed the latest nvidia driver for my card.  Problem persists.
    I spent my primary monitor with an old crt monitor.  Problem persists.
    I had the video card with another.  Problem persists.
    I looked in the device to a second monitor or a default monitor Manager.  There is no such animal.  It shows a monitor and map suitable and the pilot.  I checked the system startup to ensure that the basic video option has not been verified.

    Everything in searching for a reason for my resolution to 800 by 600 is under personalization > display settings.  It shows two options of the monitor.  The correct 1. HP w2007 LCD Monitor wide on NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT at 1680 by 1050.  It also shows the 2. (By default the monitor) on NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT with all of the resolution to 800 x 600.  The true monitor is defined as main display not non-existent default monitor.

    This second option will not appear under the NVIDIA Control Panel for the properties of the card or in the Device Manager, but for some reason any, whenever a connection is required the display switches to 800 by 600.

    Watch Google search that I'm not the only one with this problem, but none of the suggestions worked.  There is no dish scaling option in Nvidia Control Panel.  Switching video cards not disable TMM has not solved the problem.

    I am at a loss, any suggestions?

    It was right on the money.  Restarting the services one at the time and reconsignation in I took the problem to an .avi Divx for Windows Media Player codec.

    Good stuff, thanks for the help.
