Help! New windows, jump menus and maximizing

Hello all. I am new to Dreamweaver, and I have been having
trouble with some things that should be easy.
1) How can I force a new window to maximize to the screen
size?
2) I am using a Jump Menu, and what I want to do is open a
new window from the jump menu on top of the original window. I want
the new window to open separately and the back button to be
disabled. I want to do this because when I go to a new window from
an original one, then press the back button, the original page is
not refreshed.
Can someone PLEASE help me with these two items? Is there any
scripting you can share that I can insert or anything else you
know?
Thanks so much!

The jump menus are just a <select> form element with a
bit of javascript
applied. It will work just fine with your templates. And,
yes, you could
safely use SSI as well to save yourself the hassle of
uploading the changed
child pages. Most of DWs javascript can be safely relegated
to an external
js file that you include in the page.
The pop-up menus are a nightmare - don't ever consider their
behavior when
thinking about other DW features. ;)

I deactivated Acrobat 9 Pro from a Windows 8 laptop and installed it on a new Windows 8 laptop and got the error message "Invalid Serial Number." I am entitled to this installation, can someone help?

I deactivated Acrobat 9 Pro from a Windows 8 laptop and installed it on a new Windows 8 laptop and got the error message "Invalid Serial Number." I am entitled to this installation, can someone help?

I see that the number in my Adobe Account is a MAC serial number – I purchased both the Mac and Windows versions of the program. I tried to enter the serial number of the Windows version into my account and it says it’s already registered. But when I installed the Windows version on a Windows computer I got the invalid serial number message. They have two different serial numbers! Can you help me with this?

Hyperlink set to open new window & jump to anchor tag, doesn't jump

I am generating Flash Help output in RH7.
We have content hyperlinks that are set to open in a new window (target="_blank") and jump to an anchor tag in the destination topic (a href="newwindowtopic.htm#anchor")
This works fine if I compile the file as is.
However, we edit the whtopic.js topic in order to remove the "Show" link that appears when you open context sensitive topics. We do this by adding the following code at the end or the addShowButton function:
setRelStartPage("ourstartpage.htm");
show();
Replacing the Show link worked fine in RH5 and it works fine in RH7. However, in RH7 when we replace the "show" link to have the TOC load when all topics are called (not just the start page), the ability to open a new window AND jump to the anchor tag is no longer working. When you click the hyperlink the new page opens, but only to the top of the page, not to the bookmark (anchor). The anchor jump does work if the hyperlink is set to open in the current window in RH7.
The issue exists in IE7 and Firefox.
Any ideas?

Hi there
Why are you editing the JavaScript file? Did you know that when generating FlashHelp you have an option to turn off the Show link?
Additionally there are ways to link to topics so the TOC is visible and synchronized. These are described at this link right here.
Cheers... Rick

I have moved my iTunes library to a new Windows 7 PC and cannot transfer music from the new iTunes PC to my iPhone. The iPhone only accepts transfers from the original iTunes PC.

I have moved my iTunes library to a new Windows 7 PC and cannot transfer music from the new iTunes PC to my iPhone 4S. The iPhone will only accept music transfers from the original iTunes PC. I have come to understand that an iPhone can have only one "daddy" iTunes PC, but have not been able to find out how to change the "daddy". I have done a backup of the iPhone, and a "Restore to Original Settings". Then I restored the content using the new iTunes PC. My Apps and contacts, etc. are back on the iPhone, but it still won't accept music from the new iTunes PC.

What happens when you try to sync the iphone to the new computer?

I have a new windows 7 pc and i want to move my iTunes mediathek (Music, movies) to it. by using an external driver (Hd.). But On the new pc iTunes does Not integrales the Media files.

Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.
Launch iTunes.
That is all you need to do.

Here is what worked for me:
My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

If Firefox is set as the default browser, and any application attempts to open a new window, this fails and I get the error "Firefox is already running..."

Here is what I am running:
Microsoft Windows 7, Service Pack 1, Fully updated to 4/10/2012
Fresh Install of Firefox 11. No add-ons enabled as a result of troubleshooting.
I am a user with administrator rights
UAS is disabled.
To begin, this has been going on Since Firefox 10 or so. A few months now.
I am able to open Firefox. My add-ons worked (ABP, Flashblock, ABP Element Hiding Helper, IETAB2, Downthemall, Greasemonkey, 4chan extension) had no problems. Firefox is set and has been set for the last two years as my default web browser.
However Since approximately Firefox 10 or so, maybe before that, If I have a Firefox session open, and any other application attempts to open a session in a new window, I get the Firefox is already running, but not responding error."
I attempted to follow troubleshooting advice already posted (look for parent.lock files left behind [none present], multiple sessionstore.js files [none present], create a new user profile, attempted to clear out the "read-only" permission in windows 7, however as soon as it is cleared, the read only permission returns.)
As a last resort, I deleted the Firefox folder, the %APPDATA%/Mozilla directory in its entirety, then utilized CCleaner to remove any and all references to Firefox in the windows registry, then did a full re-install, no extensions installed right now.
I checked preferences and have the option "open new windows in a new tab" checked off. The problem persists regardless if this option is checked on or off. This problem persists in or out of safe mode, even with the brand new install.
Test Cases:
All cases:
Firefox is selected as the default browser for windows 7
Case 1: Open a firefox session. Utilize any other program that attempts to open a link to their website in a new browser window or new browser session. Experience "Firefox is already running" error
Case 2: Open a firefox session. Right click on Firefox on the task bar. Select "open in new window". Experience "Firefox is already running" error
Case 3: Open a firefox session. Select the Firefox Menu > New tab > New Window. A new window will actually open.
This is the only method of opening a new window in the same browser session or profile that actually works on my system. Attempting to open a browser session from the task bar "open new window dialog" or opening a new window while a current window/session is running will not open firefox in a new window or a new tab in the current session. The "Firefox is already running, but is not responding" error will occur every time.

Cor-el's suggestion resolved my problem. Apparently the MOZ_NO_REMOTE variable was set to 1 on my system variables. I never made it, and really have no idea how it got there, but deleting this variable and restarting firefox has resolved the issue. Thanks Cor-el!
Marking case: Solved
Solution: Verify the MOZ_NO_REMOTE variable is NOT set to 1. This can be achieved by simply deleting this variable.

After upgrading to 20.0.1 cannot open a new window (CTRL+N) and no add-ons seem to work (apart from adblock plus).

Unable to open new window (but able to open new tabs).
Sometimes unable to open Add-ons tab.
The add-on extensions do not seem to be working, even though they seem to be ENABLED (except adblock plus).
When restarting in safe mode, or disabling ALL add-ons the browser works normally, thus new windows open, add-on tab opens etc.
Tried to enable one thing at a time, but it seems that when enabling WHICHEVER TWO add-ons, firefox starts acting "weirdly" (no new windows etc.).
Tried disabling hardware acceleration, but it didn't solve the problem.
Tried uninstalling firefox and then reinstalling. At first it all seemed working perfectly well: new windows opened, extensions working etc. But after a couple of restarts (of firefox and computer) it all got back to the same situation.
Tried uninstalling ALL add-ons and everything worked well. After installing the SECOND add-on and restarting firefox things get "wrong" again.
It all started after upgrading to Firefox 20.0.1.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

I cannot expand (maximize) new windows for forwards and writing new messages

I am using the most recent version of Thunderbird on W7 laptop. When i attempt to forward an email it shows up as being there on the task bar (when you hover the mouse over the TB icon it shows all the new windows), I cannot maximize these new windows. It does the same thing when I try to create a new message. I can see the thumbnail on the task bar but I cannot expand it. It lets me close it, but that's it. I can read emails fine unless I double-click them. It opens the message in a new window but I cannot expand it.
Any ideas?

Do you have the option to activate/ have focus on the window which the mouse is hovering over? I'm thinking that if you have this option selected then the main TB window may stay in focus because that is where the mouse pointer is pointing?
If you click on 'Write' and you see the Write icon in bottom Task Bar, this sounds like the window has opened but it is either:
Not got focus, so it is hidden behind the main thunderbird interface or another opened window.
or it has opened in minimised state, so is not behind other opened windows.
'''First test: '''
Click on Write to open a new Write message.
Minimise Thunderbird, so it shows as icon on bottom Task Bar.
Can you see the open Write window?
If yes, then the Write message window is not getting focus.
If no
click on the Write icon in the Task Bar does it then open?
If yes, then the Write window is opening in a minimised state.
When you right click on the Write window icon in the bottom task bar, please list all options available - not the greyed out ones.
What results did you get?
Second Test: Restart Thunderbird in Safe mode.
Help > Restart with Addons disabled
Now test:
click on Write - did Write window open in the front in focus.
If yes then it is likely that an addon is causing a conflict.
You would need to test by gradually enabling addons/extensions until you find the one which is causing the problem.
So, restart thunderbird, then go to Tools > Addons disable all the addons and then enable one at a time to see when the error occurs. This will tell you which Addon is causing the problem.
Maybe the addon needs updating.
Please report back on results.
In both thunderbird Safe mode and normal mode, does Ctrl+N open a new Write window in focus ?

New windows no longer opening maximized, what can I do?

Until today, a new window was always maximized? What can I do to return to that situation?

A new window opens with the dimensions that are saved in the file localstore.rdf in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] the last time you closed Firefox.

Why does a new window show up and then go to the background

I'm beginning to thing that firefox is teasing me. Many times I will open a new window and for a second the content I want to see will display, then the new window will just DISAPPEAR and my first window will be displayed. I have to un-bacikground the new window. It's both time-consuming and extremely aggravating.

hello mozid69, please update firefox and the flash plugin to their latest versions:

Pdf in new window full width and height

Hi i managed to create a new window and add a pdf to it :
var pdf = new air.HTMLLoader();
pdf.height = 600;
pdf.width = 400;
pdf.load(request);
mywin = window.open("",
"pdfWindow","height=600,width=400,top=10,left=10");
mywin.nativeWindow.stage.addChild(pdf)
But i would like to make the pdf scale to the width and
height of the window , i tried width = '100%' but then it doesn't
show a pdf
for the current result see :
Screen

Okay i created a test :
var pdf = new air.HTMLLoader();
pdf.height = 600;
pdf.width = 400;
pdf.load(request);
mywin = window.open("",
"pdfWindow","height=700,width=500,top=10,left=10");
mywin.nativeWindow.stage.addChild(pdf)
pdf.width = mywin.nativeWindow.stage.stageWidth
pdf.height = mywin.nativeWindow.stage.stageheight
But then the pdf doesn't show, i also think this wouldn't
work on resize of the window ?
Or is there a event that is triggered
