Trying to allow a site to store data in flash settings. No matter how many times I click the radio button for "Allow..." and close the settings popup, it keeps coming back and asking the same thing.

Under "global settings", when trying to add the site and allow the site to store data, the list remains unpopulated. In other words, nothing happens when I type in the site domain name, select "allow" from the drop down menu, and then click "Add", the dialog box disappears as if it took the setting. However, no sites appear on the list of sites. And the site keeps asking and asking and asking if I want to allow it to store data.

Make sure you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode (Always use Private Browsing mode; Never Remember History).

  • Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
    Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
  • remove checkmark: [ ] "Always use Private Browsing mode"
