Applications are not saving or opening to/from recent folder ????????

Every time I go to open or save a file - it brings me to the same folder - which is a pain when saving many files a day - it just begin doing this, anyone know if I may of deleted a preference file or something that could cause my apps to open/save from the same place everytime??
thanks

Hi cdigital, and a warm welcome to the forums!
I think I know what the problem is...
In finder, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes".
Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists. Try trashing the duplicates with a 1, 2, etc., and reboot.

  • Customized Setting of External Applications are NOT saved if using templates

    We are using templates and on the template we have put the "External Application" portlet .
    Now if normal user tries and customize this portlet then these settings are not saved.
    Like user want's to see only 2 applications so he checks only 2 applications but these settings are not saved and portal still shows 5 applications to that user.

    I haven't seen this problem. Please report it to Oracle Support.

  • Custom Field values are not saved. when MPP imported from another instance.

    Hello Mate-
    Currently I am merging one small instance (I2) of PWA in our corporate instance(I1). as the corporate instance is huge, we are doing manual merge of groups, securities, users, custom fields etc. also downloading the MPP as xml from I2 and then planned
    to publish from I1.
    There are few project level custom fields which are being used in MPP. and those fields may have formulas too.
    I created same custom field in crporate environment(I1) but while trying to open the projects in our corporate environment(I1), the project custom fields are gone.
    Could you please guide me here, I am lost. I can not do a data base migration ans it would override all data from I1 instance so need to do it manually.
    Many thanks

    Hi
    You may not be able to do this as the custom field GUID's are different in both the instance.
    You may write a macro to copy the custom field data from one to another one

    Ok, that's plenty of space.
    Check the S.M.A.R.T. status on your HD: Boot from install disc (insert disc > restart > immediately hold down the c key and keep holding it until you see “Preparing Installation”) > at first screen select the language and click Continue > click on the Utilities Menu in the menu bar > select Disk Utility > select your HD in the panel on the left side (the name of the HD’s manufacturer and the model number, usually the top item in the list) > look at the bottom of the main window next to S.M.A.R.T. status and see if it says “Verified” (good) or something more ominous like “Failing.”
    If S.M.A.R.T. status is "Verified," run Repair Disk > click Repair Disk at bottom of main window. Run this at least twice, and keep running it until it says “appears ok” twice in a row. If that doesn’t happen, you may need a stronger utility (such as DriveGenius, TechToolPro, DiskWarrior) or if the directory is damaged beyond repair, you may need to reinstall the OS, or you may have a damaged HD which will need to be replaced (repair utilities can only repair the directory structure, not the HD itself). When this is finished, quit Disk Utility, quit the installer, and restart. Once booted normally, go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions.

  • Why does 'You can't open the application "setup.exe" because Microsoft Windows applications are not supported on OS X.' pop up whenever i try to download the latest flash player?

    whever i try to access websites, most of them work but facebook, youtube, my school email, sometimes even google, and alot other websites wont work for me and will tell me i need to update the lastest Flash Player. but when i try to download it, it says 'You can’t open the application “setup.exe” because Microsoft Windows applications are not supported on OS X.' what does that even mean??

    1. Install Adobe Flash Player from Adobe site.
        http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
       Download it first. Click Safari in the menubar and select “Quit Safari”.
        Follow the prompts and install it.
        Restart computer. Relaunch Safari.
    2.  Allow  Plug-ins

  • I am being blocked from my "favorites"on my iPad 2 with the following....... You are not authorized to open this file. What do I need to do

    I'm being blocked from my favorites on my iPad 2 with the following........... You are not authorized to open this file. What do I do?

    I'm not sure whether you have tried the "usual" things:
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    * Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * classic Tools menu > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference?

  • You can't open the application "MFI_Simulator.exe" because Microsoft Windows applications are not supported on OS X. Can someone assist. I have Office for Mac 2011 on MacBook Pro 13''.

    You can’t open the application “MFI_Simulator.exe” because Microsoft Windows applications are not supported on OS X. Can someone assist. I have Office 2011 on my MacBook Pro, OS X, 10.9.1.

    Your Office 2011, though a Microsoft product, is designed to work with OSX the Mac operating system.  Any program/application ending .exe is an executable program for Windows.  It will only work in Windows and is not part of or openable with Microsoft Office.
    the application you want to open needs Windows - you have a couple of alternatives:
    Open it on a Windows PC
    Install a valid version of Windows via Bootcamp (or Parallels or VM Fusion) which will allow you to boot your Mac into Windows where it will function like a Windows PC and you can use it to run the application.
    See if the manufacturers of MFI_Simulator have a Mac version available.
    Please note that if you follow the second option, then you will need to purchase a copy of Windows (if you do not have one already). BootCamp is free (part of OSX) but Parallels and VM Fusion cost too.  I see quite a few posts from people who buy Parallels and try to run the program under Parallels - this doesn't work - you need to install Windows as well.
    Hope this helps.

  • Text fields populated from lov mapping are not saved to database

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm having a wierd problem. My requirement is to autopopulate two text fields field 2 and field 3 when a value is selected from lov in field1 and save all the values to database on click of a submit button.
    Using lov mapping i'm able to populate field 2 and field 3 with corresponding values based on the value selected in field1. And also field2 and field3 should be in the readonly mode so that user cannot change the value.
    So to make the fields readonly i have changed the property of readonly to true for field2 and field3. But if I change the readonly property, the values for field2 and field3 are not being saved to database.
    The values are getting saved to database only when readonly = true for messageTextInput item type or if the item type is a form value.
    I also tried disable = true, which also didnt work.
    I tried to debug by writing some sop statements in PFR, but these statements also returned null for pageContext.getParameter("field2") etc;
    Can anyone please tell me how to solve this problem?
    Thanks
    Sunny

    Hi Gyan,
    I forgot to mention that , I also tried messageStyledText. Which also didn't work. I wanted to use vo.setAttribute as my last option, but i wanted to understand why the values are not saved to database when the text item is showing the values on the page.
    Thanks

  • Upon startup Firefox says "Proxy is refusing connections." When I select "Auto-Detect Proxy" from Advanced settings and solve problem, changes are not saved and upon next startup I must select again...!

    Firefox 4 was working fine. Then one day, when I started up Firefox, it says "Proxy is refusing connections." I solved this by selecting "Auto-Detect Proxy" from Advanced network settings, but my changes are not saved and upon every start-up I must select it again! (I even completely removed my webroot antivirus protection, as it as hindering many proxy related programs, but this seems to not be the source of the problem)

    You can find the connection settings in Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection
    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy"
    See "Firefox connection settings":

  • Removing songs from iTunes, that are not saved on the computer

    Hey guys.
    First of all i would like to thank you for reading my post and trying to help.
    Anyways, i rent an external harddrive from one of my friends, and he had a huge amount of songs, that i would like to get on my computer. Stupid as i am, i started downloading directly from the harddrive, which result in a lot of songs in my iTunes, that are not saved in the computer, and when i remove the external harddrive from my computer, all the songs cannot play. So after that, i saved them on my computer, and tried getting them into iTunes once again. This has resulted in a double of every songs. Which is quite much.. Are there any ways, that i can do a "Clean-up" and remove all the songs that are not saved on my computer or not working or something like that?
    I appreciate your help. Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    If your previous library was matched on you your computer, you can retrieve your music from itunes match on your computer.
    Sign in to match and add your computer. Your library will now show all the music that is in match. You should be able to download all your music back on to your computer.

    An .exe file means you have the windows version. Go get the mac version:

    but I hope you have a mac serial number.

  • Some applications are not opening

    Hi,
    Many of my applications are not opening. Sometimes when I try to open the application it doesn't even bounce in the dock.  Other times, applications will bounce in the dock and then stop.  These are crucial apps, like Mail, Pages, and iPhoto.  Safari and iTunes are working fine.
    Here is some information on my mac:
    I have an early 2008 MacBook Pro, 2.5 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 250 GB HDD, and 4 GM DDR2 Crucial RAM. I am running the latest versions of Snow Leopard, iWork, and iLife. So my computer is up to date (software wise).
    Does anyone know what could be going on with my computer?
    I have already tried repairing the disk and repairing the disk permissions in disk utility through the OS as well as the install disc.  Is there anything else I should try doing before taking my computer into the Apple store?
    Thanks,
    Max

    That didn't work =/
    I'm still having the same issues even with a new account.

    An .exe application is compiled for Windows. It will not run on a different OS. If you need to run this program, then you will have to install Windows on your Mac. Either as a separate bootable partition, or running in a virtual machine, such as Parallels or VMWare.
