What gives!? Chrome on Mac won't clear autofill data - macos

I've been going crazy because in Chrome on my MacBook Air there was some autofill data from my previous job that would not go away. This was driving me nuts because I cleared all the autofill data about 100 times, cleared the cache, did all sorts of things and the data was still there. I also did tons of searching, but couldn't find anybody else with this problem. Frustration!

Well, today I figured it out, and I'm posting this to help that next frustrated soul avoid the problem. It turns out it's simple.
The whole problem originates from this box checked in the Chrome Autofill settings:
The problem is that I had some data in my Address Book (i.e. Contacts app) that contained my the address, email, etc. from my previous job. By simply removing that data solved the problem.
I hope this helps!

Solution:
Go to Chrome, select clear browsing data,
Make sure to select ''From the Beginning of Time'' on the Obliterate the following items from option:
tick all the boxes, and try it.
Done.

While in Swift playground I accidentally hit some Key and now cannot type... stuck with "?" symbol insead of curser

This is a real nube question, sorry guys but this is real frustrating.
Tried quitting Xcode, and deleting the old playground but the "?" is still there and will not let me type!
Ok, a month down the tack, and having repeated the error a several times I have finally figured out the issue.
Background:
My set up is a Win10 machine with a remote Mac server (MacinCloud)
The Issue:
When typing and deleting, I occasionally would miss and hit the "Insert" key. This would render any further editing impossible. The solution at this stage is to log off the remote server and log back in.
Final solution... cover the "Insert" key with a 3-sided cardboard bracket. :)

Google Analytics Query Explorer won't take inputs

I am very familiar with GA Query Explorer (https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/query-explorer/).
Just yesterday and today its UI has begun to refuse to key input. When I try to type in the metrics or dimensions fields it gives a message 'No matches found' - see screenshot. It has therefore become utterly useless.
I tried removing all GA cookies and logging out. I closed my Firefox browser, where I have used it regularly. On return I logged into Google and opened a Query Explorer tab. It remembered my latest parameters, so it had not removed cookies, and duly gave the same error.
Can you please advise how I can get out of this vicious circle and begin to get results from the Query Explorer again?
I have the same problem too. I believe there is a problem on the page, probably due to this error in the console:
I report the bug here:

Thanks to responders.
This has now been fixed by Google.

I deleted the home page in my Oracle application express how can i recover it?

I'm still a newbie in this so I still don't know how things work.
Will it affect anything if i made a new page called home?
or can I recover it?
No problem in creating a new page.
Alternatively (though, now is probably too late), you can
export the application as of "n" minutes ago (if you deleted it right now, "n" could be 5 minutes, for example)
drop the application
import it back
and you'd have the lost page again.
Can you explain your problem a bit further?
I can recommend to read trough the links below.

Selenium Ruby :tab stopped working when running test

It worked until today, no code got changed
So if I do something like
page.find('#edit-user').native.send_keys(:tab, :tab) it's not working (it's highlighting the element #edit-user but not moving forward) specifically for the tab key, it's working correctly for :space or :enter.
It was working previously, it's a small possibility that it's related to some settings change for the Chrome browser but not sure exactly how and why
We are having this problem in Chrome as well, and it all started with Chrome update 44.
I tried using "\t", :tab, :return, :enter, and :escape to remove focus from a text input (symbols found here), but none of them are working in the most recent version of Chrome.
I know you mentioned you are not looking for solutions other than tab, but short of rolling back your browser version and disabling updates, or waiting for the possibility of a fix from Google itself, you will have to change the scripts being executed.
We found that this has worked well so far:
driver.execute_script("document.activeElement.blur()")
If the desired behavior in your case is to shift focus two fields forward, then you might consider another Javascript solution that looks something like what is discussed in this thread:
simulate the tab key function in javascript
Of course, this probably isn't the best long term solution, as even some very quick Googling shows that sending a tab key to switch focus has been recommended tons of times to people using WebDriver. Because of this, I'm keeping my fingers crossed there will be another Chrome update to revert the behavior.

Trouble on localhost: Must update page many times

I'm currently making a webpage and running it locally on localhost for testing. But whenever I make a change to that page and want to see the result in the browser I run into a "problem". I have to update (press F5 or the update button in the browser) several times for the site to show. In the meantime it's just white...
Let's say I have the site up in my browser (looking good), and then I make a change and want to see it. I press the update button in my browser one time and the site is now just white. I press it again and again, but it stays white. Until I press it a random number of times, and it works. Sometimes I just have to update once, and sometimes I have to update 7-8 times. Sometimes it's fast as hell, and other times it's slow as my schools computers.
Does anyone know if there might be a problem with the site itself (and this problem will continue to exist, even after I upload it to the server), or if it's just a problem with my internet/ computer/ known problem when running on localhost?
I'm using XAMPP on a Mac and have tried testing the page in both Safari and Chrome.
Thanks for all the tips in advance!

EDIT 1:
It turns out Chrome decided to give me an error message instead of a white screen now. It says "no data received", and Safari is still just blank. Any ideas? I've tried turning off caching.
EDIT 2:
Did some tweaking here and there, and found out that it's SimpePies autoloader.php that's causing my problems. Any of you have any knowledge around SimplePie, and know how I can make the site load faster? It's fine when I've commented out require_once('php/autoloader.php');, but I need that for my feeds to load. Any ideas?
Into chrome you can turn caching off. Just take a look to this page :
http://geek.michaelgrace.org/2011/09/disable-google-chrome-cache/
With Chrome: CTRL+SHIFT+R
I don't know about Safari.
That may be something related with the cache or with apache itself.
Find out if you have any error on apache's error.log. It might be related to an error similar to this one:
AH00052: child pid 62969 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)
then you should check: "[notice] child pid XXXX exit signal Segmentation fault (11)" in apache error.log
Basically it states to try to increase output_buffering in your php.ini
You would have to run a backtrace on the coredump to know why it crashed, as indicated elsewhere. In mi case it was APC, and the error went away as soon as it was disabled on php.ini. Yours might be because some other cause.
