No Actions on my Extensions preferences

A few bugs in Yosemite after just 2 day of release.
For example, I don't have actions on my mac Extensions preferences.
You need to activate Mark up on your Sistem preferences -> Extensions -> Actions
But I have no Actions!
Is it just me?

In a related, yet different, discussion thread -- one of the posters got the following Terminal command from Apple Support
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -seed
It took almost 30 minutes to run on my system that has lots of files and applications, but it seems to have resolved things.
This command that uses lsregister is going to first "reset" the Launch Services database and then "seed" it by scanning the default locations for applications and libraries to register. I did get two errors thrown near the end of my run -- but those were from non-Apple application bundles and I'm not worried about them.
PS -- watch out for the line wrap in this post for the Terminal command. It might possibly dump a space in there if you just copy/paste it (where "LaunchServices" in the path becomes "LaunchSe rvices")

My Safari Extensions preference page is blank. How do I resolve it? (Safari 5.1.2 on Lion 10.7.2)

I found my extensions window blank back when I used Snow Leopard. I thought Lion and new updates will eventually solve it. But it is still there. I tried everything I can. I tried downloading Safari 5.1.2 and reinstalling it. It didn't work. Then I uninstaled safari using CleanMyMac and then tried installing it from scratch. It didn't work. When I googled I found that deleting some plist file resolves the problem on some older version of Safari. But I cannot locate that plist file on Lion. How can I get back my extensions preference page?

Delete the following items:
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL
/Library/LaunchAgents/net.culater.SIMBL.Agent.plist
/Library/ScriptingAdditions/SIMBL.osax
Log out and log back in.
Make sure you never reinstall SIMBL, as it’s one of the worst articles of crapware on the Mac platform. It’s likely to come bundled with some other modfication that depends on it. If you want trouble-free computing, avoid software that makes miraculous changes to other software, especially built-in applications. The only real exception to that rule is Safari extensions, which are mostly safe, and are easy to get rid of when they don’t work. SIMBL and its dependents are not Safari extensions.

"Remove all website data," cookies, and extension preferences

Safari 5.1 Lion
Can someone please confirm the following (very unfortunate) behavior?
1) Check the option "Block cookies from 3rd parties and advertisers"
2) Visit any major site (CNN, CNET, etc.)
3) 3rd party cookies and tracking data is still acquired from doubleclick, etc. despite step #1
In other words, Safari 5.1 does not seem to be blocking third party cookies. I have seen other threads documenting this. What's worse is that "removing all website data" (Preferences | Privacy tab) *also* deletes your extension preferences. ***?
Chrome and Firefox separate "local data" (extension prefs and site offline storage) from cookie/tracking data. Safari is no longer an option to me until this is fixed.

I, too, am perplexed by this change. Then again, I've been perplexed by most of the changes Apple has made to products/os in the last few years. I'm thinking that I may not only change browsers, but hardware/software also. It's issues like this that make me wonder if anyone on the Apple design team actually uses any of their products, or maybe they think we are all just too ignorant to be able to use a computer.
Making things simple to use shouldn't equate to removing advanced functionality, but it seems that's what Apple believes it to be.
Really disgusted now.
Thanks Apple.

Safari 5.1 Blank Extensions Preference Pane

Running Safari 5.1 on Lion, I have noticed that the Extensions Preferences Pane, is often blank when I bring it up despite having at least 4 extensions enabled. Has anyone else seen this behavior? Even if I right-click on the pane to Reload, nothing happens -- the pane still appears completely blank.

Safari 5.1 blank page at startup
Barry,
I agree, the blank page must be a new bug, total bummer for me and the old workflow. Running Safari Version 5.1 Mac OS X (10.6.8), it also happened after the recent update.
Sometimes the bleeding edge is much less cool than the cutting edge. I hope Apple fixes it on the next release.

My extensions preferences changes are gone when I change the theme after I reboot my pc

If I want to change the preferences of my extensions and the theme of the browser (wether it's a Persona or a custom theme) everything is all right. But if I reboot, my changes are gone. It doesn't happen if I don't change the theme.
To sum up:
I change my extensions options <--> '''DO '''change the theme --> reboot = my custom preferences '''RESET''' to last known before theme change.
I change my extensions options <--> '''DON'T''' change the theme --> reboot = my custom preferences '''REMAIN'''.
I already tried erasing the Prefs.js and personas files and nothing. I also erased the profile twice and didn't work.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

I think I just resolved my issue. I exited Firefox, then deleted the places.sqlite file then restarted Firefox 4. My bookmarks immediately appeared.
Here's where I got the instructions.

Limit availability of nodes/actions in new extension to own schema

Hi,
I have made a new XML extension that adds a node to the SQL Developer navigator. I have also added menu actions on the new nodes.
What I want to do is to NOT have the menu actions available on the new node when it is reached via expanding the other users node.
The idea is to only have the menu actions available when the node displayed belongs to the currently connected user.
If it is not possible to limit the menu actions is there a way to then NOT show my own node type as a sub type in the other users node?
Regards,
Pieter

Hi,
I have still not found a way to do this. I know it can be done - the "Other Users" node is not available if you expand a user.
I would likt to do the same for my own nodes - how can this be done?
Regards,
Pieter

JDev 11g Extension Preferences Panel

Hi,
I'm designing a plugin/extension with a properties page and I can't get the FieldLayoutBuilder and JTextField's to behave.
I have set the FieldLayoutBuilder property StretchComponentsWithNoButton to false and yet when I run the extension and view my properties page (Tools->Preferences:PluginName) my JTextField is is fully expanded to the width of the panel.
        FieldLayoutBuilder b = new FieldLayoutBuilder(this);
        b.setStretchComponentsWithNoButton(false);My JTextField does not have a button and I would like it to be 45 pixels in width. Does setStretchComponentsWithNoButton doe anything? Am I using it correctly or should I do this another way?
pls help,
Brenden

Hi Shay,
thanks for helping with this.
I was thinking of using another layout control but wasn't sure if this would cause issues with the sizing of the JDev preferences panel or if the FieldLayoutBuilder is the preferred layout for the preferences dialog. There is only one example in the extension sdk (ConfigPanel extension) so I wasn't sure if FieldLayoutBuilder was used as the recommended approach or just for convenience of the example.
It's really the b.setStretchComponentsWithNoButton(false); that I am wondering what it is (not) doing.
    private void layoutControls() {
        FieldLayoutBuilder b = new FieldLayoutBuilder(this);
        b.setStretchComponentsWithNoButton(false);
        servers.setHorizontalAlignment(JTextField.RIGHT);
        servers.addKeyListener(new KeyAdapter() {
            public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
            char c = e.getKeyChar();
            if (!((Character.isDigit(c) ||
                (c == KeyEvent.VK_BACK_SPACE) ||
                (c == KeyEvent.VK_DELETE)))) {
                getToolkit().beep();
                e.consume();
        browse.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                    browse_actionPerformed(e);
        b.add(b.field().label().withText("&Command File:").component(cmdfile).button(browse).withText("..."));
        b.add(b.field().label().withText("&Start Servers:").component(servers));
        b.addVerticalSpring();
    }Brenden

Safari can't install this extension because Extensions are disabled. Extensions can be enabled in Safari's Extensions preferences.

i have this problem. Anyone can help me?

Ok...
Open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left.
Now open the LIbrary folder then the Safari folder then the Extensions folder.
Move the Extensions.plist file from the Extensions folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac.
See if that helped.

"Preview all pages in browser" ignores extension preference

I'm using Fireworks CS4 on Windows XP. I'm using an NTFS filesystem, so file extensions are not limited to 3 characters.
In Fireworks' File >> HTML Setup dialog box, I specify that I want an extension of .html.
When I assign links to hotspots, the dropdown menu shows my pages with a .html extension, as I expect. But when I use File >> Preview in Browser >> Preview all pages in Firefox.exe, Fireworks exports the pages with an extension of .htm instead of .html. That breaks all the links.
I've noticed that changing the extension in File >> HTML Setup changes the choices in the Links dropdown list. I.e., the list of URLs always uses the extension that I specify in setup.
So, why does the Preview All Pages command create the HTML files with an incorrect extension? Is there a fix other than redefining all the hotspot links with a .htm extension?
Thanks.

Because that functionality is busted. :-( I don't worry about it too much, because I only use FW html for prototyping, and my system is that .htm files are not final proudction pages, so it's easy for me to separate files without having to even open them.
That said, it should still work.

Safari Share Menu Empty, Extensions Preferences Mostly Empty

Upgraded to Yosomite last night. My Share menu only includes Pocket. Clicking more... again only shows Pocket.
How do I get the options back?

I found a solution:
Go to: /system/library/frameworks/notificationcenter.framework/versions/a/resources
There you will find the Widget Simulator. Double Click on it. It will open with no window.
Then Go to:
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/ShareKit.framework/Versions/A/PlugIns/
Click and drag the following to the Widget Simulator:
Add to Reading List
Mail
Messages
Airdrop
Twitter
Facebook
Linkedln
Ignore the error on each (just hit Ok)
Your Share Menu will be fully Populated.

Is there an Applescript or Automator action that can change Preferences in

When I log on to my ISPs website to clean out my spam filter, the site redirects me to a second area that contains the filtered spam. Each time I access it I must change my "Accept Cookies from "Only sites you navigate to" to "Always". The problem is remembering to change it BACK. Is there an applescript or automator thingy that will allow me to to make these changes? I'm using Safari 3.1.2.
Thank you.

This question was answered in the Safari-for-Mac forum.

Markup- action extension doesn't appear

Hi all,
I've just downloaded and installed Yosemite on my iMac 27 (2012) model.
I have tried to use Markup on mail. But I've noticed that the tiny "arrow" done' appear.
I went to Apple>system preference>Extensions to activate "Actions"
But, it wasn't there. I only have:
All (empty)
Finder (only dropbox)
Today (social)
I have no idea how to add "actions" and other extensions in. Can you help me?
the most important for me is Markup.
Thank you!
Rotem

go to Terminal and post this:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/support/lsregister -kill -seed
if it doesn't have that specific directory try this:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -seed
once the scanning is done (can be short or long, depends on how heavy your system is) RESTART the computer.
when you're back, go to Apple>system preferences>extensions.... guess who's there.
I hope it helped.
The Doctor.

I cannto find extensions in phtoshop cc-2014

I downloaded and installed the reflections extension which indicated it is compatible. The cloud app and extension manager 7.2.1.6 indicates they are installed/enabled. I am using Windows 7. I have everything checked in the extension manager preferences and file sync is on in the Cloud app. I go to windows and extensions and it is not there. I tried several other indicated compatible extensions, and they too did not show up although all are indicated as installed and end enabled. I went to windows explorer and found the panel folder, as indicated in other complaints about this, and none of them were there. I also have cc and cs6 installed on this computer and looked there also and none of them are showing up.
How do I fix this?

Thank you. I have the same. I can find what I purchase in actions, but Windows>Extensions is greyed out. I too have installed, reinstalled the Adobe Extension Manger and the extensions, and restarted my computer. I tried installing the Adobe Exchange Panel in PS CC 2014, but couldn't get it to show in PS. If you make any further progress, will you please post? Thanks in advance.

How to add .mov extension to Quicktime clips ?

Not to exported movies but to all the individual clips / movies, created
by capturing process. I know I have seen the box to check / uncheck ( add
.mov extension.
Obviously I didn't check it, but now need to.
Doesn't seem to be a quicktime option / preference.
Where in FCP ?
tHANKS

Too, you can download a simple Automator Action, like Change Extension. Then in Automator choose, File > Import Actions, point to this new file.
Then the fully constructed Automator workflow is quite simple: 2 steps. Like this:
Or, you can download a super simple app like R-Name.
It's got an option there, "Add Extension". Couldn't be easier to use. I use this app quite a bit.

Blendmein extension is not working in photoshop cc 2014

I installed add-ons from adobe add-ons website but add-ons are not visible in windows>extension...

Many Photoshop extensions are not compatible with Photoshop CC 2014 for Adobe removed support for Flash Panels in CC 2014. Many extensions panels are flash based. Check with the developer to see if their blendmein extension works with CC 2014.
Adobe does not maintain Photoshop so it backward compatible with prior versions of Photoshop. This brakes things like action scripts plugins extensions etc. Keep old version of Photoshop installed....
