Show passwords in FileZilla [Portable]

Saturday, 2015.05.16 J.D. H. Leave a comment

Recently I needed to regain access to a client’s FTP site where the password had been lost. Resetting the password was going to be problematic so instead we recovered the password by accessing FileZilla’s saved password list: For Portable FileZilla: FileZillaPortable\Data\settings\sitemanager.xml For regular FileZilla it should be similar to: %APPDATA%\filezilla\sitemanager.xml Open the sitemanager.xml file and browse to the Pass listing for the particular site that you need access to: This instructions are for Windows. I hope they are helpful to you 🙂

LG G2 muffled call quality issues [SOLVED]

Tuesday, 2015.04.28 J.D. H. Leave a comment

QUESTION: I bought the G2 at Amazon on sale and everyone I talk to on the phone complaints that they can hear themselves if the volume is turned up. I also have some sporadic muffled call issues and want it to be louder without affecting the person on the other end. Are these issues defects? I hope there is a fix because I love the rest of this phone and do not want to return it! -Nicole S. ANSWER: You

Open PDF files in different Foxit Reader windows (not tabs) [SOLVED]

Monday, 2015.04.27 J.D. H. 2 comments

Foxit is a very nice PDF reader, however, a few versions back they made a change that is limiting for multiple monitor users. Specifically, PDFs open in separate Foxit tabs rather than their own windows. This can make it tough to compare two documents side-by-side etc. Thankfully, there is an easy fix to allow multiple Foxit PDF windows: File -> Preferences -> Documents -> Check the “Allow Multiple Instances” box -> Click OK That is all there is to it!
