Why some websites list stores near Richardson, TX - when I live in Modesto, CA?

On some sites, when a company offers stores near me, they list stores near Richardson, TX. They are businesses that do not require a zip code or the name of the city. Is this info stored somewhere in/by Firefox? How can I change the name of default (?) to show my city?

This isn't something Firefox did. This is related to how the site collects your location and what is your IP address. I suggest doing a check of IP address to check how you are located is correct, and then by contacting the respective websites to make them know the error occurs. There are moments could be Firefox actually causing the problem, but it is very rare, and I suggest you consult with a different browser to see if you encounter the same problem.

Thank you!

  • Why some of my photo files appear corrupted when importing one of my SD memory cards?

    Lightroom 4

    Some of the files seem corrupted when I import from one of my memory cards SD.  I import RAW files.  I have 4 other memory cards.  So far, it is not happened with other cards.

    The affected files have areas with a bright and multicolor background and gangs who block the photo...

    I have an Epson Viewer.  The files look OK when using this device.  A local photo store opened the files in another program, and they looked very good.

    The camera shop thought my Lightroom Catalog is maybe damaged.

    Any thoughts about what is the cause?

    After you import photos from a different SD card and two CF cards successfully, I concluded that the problem is most likely a faulty SD card.

  • Why some thinapped apps still asking serial number when you try to move them to another OS?

    Hi all, I noticed that some applications still require a serial number (even if they have been supplied correctly before packaging) when they are moved to another OS?

    Iinteresting waiting for an interesting answer question, thak you all.

    Short answer:

    Because the company that made the software has invested some time to ensure their income...

    Long version:

    There are various reasons why the serial number can be lost/invalidated. Usually (more common) it is because during the installation, a fingerprint of the system has been filed and the software has detected that the system is no longer one that you've installed the software on. This can be a very simple (as the name of the computer) to the complex (os type, NIC MAC address, CPU ID, a serial... OS) validation. At some point, the software determines: enough is enough, I don't trust it more.

    This problem existed before ThinApp or any other virtualization were introduced. Until a few years ago, it was common to "phantom", a role the same image on all systems in a company and system. Microsoft Office XP has been the finest example of an application of all uses and who did not like this mode of distribution. System admins had re - activate all systems in him the original CD.

    Other blighters are servers that monitor how system uses what license and "trackers use' preventing you to reset the sandbox (using the account don't match no more on a server/local).

    I hope that answers it. There are a lot of reasons, but it is most likely...

    Kind regards

  • Can not know why 'Apps' are listed as containing 80 GB when more great app is 6 GB

    I have a 120 GB Macbook Pro from 2015. I usually don't have much problems with it apart from the rare BSOD, but I just ran more disk space. It is said that 80 GB (by far the largest) is picked up by my applications, but when I sort my apps depending on the size, the largest is League of Legends at about 6 GB. I don't have any other installed games and other applications are much smaller. I have no idea what is the 65 GB or so it is counted in my apps folder. What should I do?

    The connection between the most important application on the disc and the sum of all the applications on the disk is illogical. If you run lack of space then see:

  • Why some items in 'Open an existing project' have just the name of the project and others have access to the entire file path?

    I have SP1 2012 LabVIEW and on the main screne of LabVIEW selecrt "show projects".

    Why some elements of 'Existing Open' (project) have just the name of the project and others have access to the entire file path?

    Examples of two lines in the list of projects.

    Ping.lvproj (with a path: C:\Users\mlevine\Documents\MPCE EQT\EQT Software\Ping.lvproj)

    C:\Users\mlevine\Documents\Common package Mission trainer (CMPT) \SUW Surface Warfare\Weapon permission Panel (WAP) \WAP LabVIEW Software\WAP fire authorization server 28 April 2015

    No chance, it's because I made a copy of this software and stored on a network drive power off and it went out of this network drive?

    So if LabVIEW sees two or more versions of the same software, he decides to use the name to differentiate between full path?

    I'd still rather it shows just the name of the project and if you hover over the name it shows the full path.

    Thank you

    Mark

    If you have opened a project of the same name from a different location, it is when it shows the full path both - in this case showing just the name of the project would not help because it would be the same thing!

  • Features of the icon: why some icons contain green boxes with check marks?

    Original title: icon features

    Why some icons contain green boxes with check marks?  Ditto chiccory arrows & exclamation points?  Thank you.

    I assume you mean the file icons in Windows Explorer (my computer). The curved arrow indicates that the listed item is actually just a shortcut to a file or a program. The exclamation point and the green check mark will have something to do with the backup or archiving and depend on the settings you have made in Windows or backup software that you have installed.

    Because it's really a matter of Windows rather than specifically related to the word, I'll pass your question on a Windows forum.
