Reader X Search doesn't differentiate cached search paths for reselection

I use the Search quite a bit (or did).
Specifically the "All PDF Documents in" option, where  the paths of locations that have previously been browsed to are presented for  reuse.
Previous Reader versions shortened long paths so as  to display the last part of the pathname, which is normally sufficient to  identify the path required.
X does not, so, with no Tooltip either, it is  now impossible to differentiate paths with common starting paths longer than  that displayed. Update  FAIL.
Widening the whole search panel does not widen the  field. Update FAIL.
AND when you start the search you STILL don't get to  actually see what path is being search due to truncation. Again widening the  panel does not widen the fields. Update  FAIL.
And why can't we have the normal search term field in  the toolbar for seraching the curent document? Although as it took me too long  (I think) to even work out how to get any search button on the toolbar, maybe I  mssed that. Update FAIL (x2).
And all my old search paths from the previous version  have been binned. Update FAIL again.
So much for ease of use, do developers actually test  sw "in use" rather than some neatly defined functionallity test scrpit - make  the developers use the product is always a good way to fix this I  find.
Honestly, if there wasn't enough resource available  in Adobe to sort out this kind of trivial ease-of-use functionallity (that I found in just 5 mins use) then how  can anyone have faith that the serious stuff has been properly  tersted?
Not a good start for 5 mins use. And I see the  downgrading doesn't work. Stuffed again.

Any ideas on how I get Quicktime to work that does not include disks?
Pacifist does not require an optical drive for use. Simply "drag 'n drop" the downloaded "QuickTime769_Leopard.pkg" installer file as downloaded from Apple or the OldApps.com site to the Pacifist Window, select the "QuickTime Player App under the "Applications" entry, and tell Pacifist to extract the app. Then it is simply a matter of dragging the app to your root "Applications" folder.

  • Search c:\ drive and return file path for winword.exe and save as variable

    Hi all, here is what I'm trying to do;
    1. Search C:\ drive for winword.exe
    2. take the file path and save it as a variable.
    3. Then based on the path value, use the switch statement to run "some command" 
    Essentially I'm trying to find what the file path for winword.exe is, then run a command to modify the registry.  I already have the script that will modify the registry like I want but the problem it, the path is hard coded in the script, I want to
    now look for all versions of word and set the right file path so I can make the right registry changes.

    This should get you started:

  • Read Only option doesn't seem to be working for me

    I've got a text field on a page that I want to be editable for administrators, but only display values for Developers.
    I've created an application item, ADMIN, which stores whether one is an administrator in a 'Yes' or 'No' fashion. On the text field I've placed a READ ONLY condition on it where if ADMIN = 'No' then it's supposed to be read only.
    No matter what I put in there though, No, 'No', Yes, or 'Yes' I still get a simple, editable, text field.

    I don't know why, but it seems when I've exhausted all searching and post, I find what my error is.
    I won't even bother explaining this one... but lets just say I'm going to grab some more coffee.

  • Offset Path doesn't create a separate path

    Mac CS6
    Seems like my Illustrator is bugging out. When I apply offset path to the compound object Illustrator doesn't create a separate path for me, but both the offset and original somehow bundle together:
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/xiu3xqcictx0ku0/Offset_problem_1.png
    I'm trying to create an effect like this tutorial on youtube. But since offset path doesn't create a separate path, I can't duplicate the same effect.
    Any clue on how to fix this would be appreciated.

    Did you use the Object>Path method or Effects>Path method? Here's the difference

  • E72 - Contacts quick search doesn't work correctly

    Hello!
     I have over 1,500 contacts in Outlook and has successfully synchronized them with Nokia E72 (last firmware). But quick search in Contacts application simply doesn't work - I can find only few contacts - others just dissapear when I start typing correct letters. 
    I tried to kill the process of this app and restart Contacts. Voila, it works correctly! But then in 5 min. I tried again and got just the same problem. 
    Desktop quick search doesn't work too.
    I've already tried to reload all the contacts in my phone - no results.
    What would you advise to solve that problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    The E72 Is from the most point of views a complete and very good phone.
    But this bug drives me crazy!
    Zam72 is completely spot on: Pathetic, Killer Feature, frustrating.
    I've done som more testing:
    Started with a quick search from home screen, found the contact I was lookng for.
    Made a Mail for exchange sync. Same search, no hits. (thought I found the issue...)
    Reboot, speed search work again.
    New Mfe sync, search still works, repeated a couple of times, still ok.
    Two hours later: Search still works
    New mfe sync, search once again goes blank!
    Now i'm noticing that when I open the contacts, I can browse the contacts, but if i enter a letter it first appears, but directly disapears making search impossible.
    I'M NOT ABLE TO USE THIS PHONES CONTACTS!!!!!!
    I believe this is related to Mfe synchronizations, but it's a random issue.
    Yes, I've tried a *#7370# with no luck.
    I'm not using PC-suite sync at all (no conflicts)
    I'm not running other programs simultaniously.
    I feel like a Beta tester!

  • Robohelp 9 WebHelp - Searching doesn't produce any results.

    Hi, I upgraded to RoboHelp 9 last week and now searching in Webhelp doesn't produce any results. I've created a new project, used the sample project, tried generating it to a new folder and results remain the same.
    When I select the search tab, the status bar flutters with the "Waiting for file...." displayed indefinetly with the occassion display of the javascript: (void);
    Screens shots are from the RH 9 sample project. Results are the same with my projects.  CHMs generated work fine!
    Any suggestions?

    You added the problem to another thread that was not related as the issue there is the use of HTTPS. I have deleted that post.
    You also started a second thread with a the same question. I don't understand how asking the question twice will help so I have locked that thread but created a link to this thread so that anyone with an answer can help you. If there is a reason for starting a second thread, please let me know.
    Please just ask once and wait for a reply as this wastes moderator's time that is better used trying to answer questions.
    Now to the problem. Searching with Chrome installed works just fine for most people so the problem seems to be local to you. If I have read you correctly, after installing Chrome, the search breaks no matter what browser is used.
    Was that checked on other machines or just yours?
    IGNORE THIS QUESTION - The answer is YES and that was in the post.
    Did you also check that search was broken with the supplied sample projects? I know that works with the three browsers being discussed here?
    Where was the help installed when tested by you both standalone and from the application?
    Questions 2 and 3 are really only related to problems with Chrome. I have not seen anyone report Chrome also breaking the search in the other browsers. There's more to this than meets the eye as Chrome has not caused that problem for anyone else, or at least, no one has reported it.

  • Search doesn't search ~/Library/Preferences and others

    Since upgrading to 10.5 I've noticed that Spotlight (as well as doing a normal finder search) doesn't search the ~/Library/Preferences folder (or a lot of other folders as well including Application Support).
    For example try to search for com.apple.itunes and nothing will come up.
    BUT if you navigate to the Preferences folder and search for com.apple.itunes ONLY in the Preferences folder it will show up.
    This kind of ruins the search for me, and forces me to use lame 3rd party search apps.
    Does anyone know a way to make Spotlight and the regular finder search, actually search the entire system?
    Thanks

    Spotlight's settings are in system preferences, you can click them all, no big difference. Spotlight has many limitations, and is not the application it's made out to be. It will find many items, and also skip many. That's it, not so great of news. The index includes all folders, yet some will not display.

    Thanks.
    I'm thinking there's gotta be a command-line hack/fix to take care of this issue. I'm sure it annoys a lot of people.

  • I cannot get google cache search to function in Firefox

    when I try to Google cache search for (certain color highlighted words on web pages) no color highlighted words show up.... A cache search is a great time saving convenience, and I miss mine not working. Is there anything I can do to reactivate it?
    Firefox 20.0.1
    Thank you, Jay

    I'm trying to think of a reason that the script would change the size of type on the page... Perhaps what's happening is that the style sheet isn't loading due to secure/insecure settings. Could you use the script options to turn off HTTPS, then reload the cached page?

  • Spotlight doesn't do internet search

    just installed the new os x and i find spotlight is great but i tried the web search like in wikipedia , google ,movies and maps it doesn't show in search , only the dictionary and apps ..
    the internet works greatly. , any solution ?

    US proxy connection, I guess?
    It needs it for movie searches, places and other stuff. Not sure why doesn't show Wikipedia searches though.
    And, even if you were located at the other end of the world and you were looking for a place or a restaurant or a movie that you know that should be in the US, it's still kinda stupid not to show that information to you, just because you can't watch that movie or actually go to that restaurant. Maybe you just want to see the movie poster. Or some reviews of that restaurant. It's like you wouldn't be able to access the menu of a Chinese restaurant cause you're not Chinese, or you're not in China. Maybe you want to plan your trip in advance and you need that information before you actually get on a plane to the US.
    Stupid decisions.

    It's a 3rd party app.  You really should contact Adobe Support and/or post in the Adobe Forums

  • E 72 building cache ,search will be available in a...

    Hello, 
    today i buy one new Nokia E72 from Vodafone Romania and i have this problmes
    When i try to search in my contact list one no my phone say "building cache search will be available in a moment" 
    Why?
    Nokia what is doing, cannot check phone when it start to sell?
    I speak with my lawyer and i thing i suit Nokia for this. I pay money for one phone to work not to start to look over the internet
    after this problems and to resolve this.   

    I have had my e72 for about a week now and "Building cache. Search will be available in a moment." and tried deleting all contacts as well as using isync to reset the contacts and cal. NOTHING I have tried resolved the error, every time I try to search contacts I get the "Building cache. Search will be available in a moment." message. I can scroll through contacts using the optimouse but searching contacts from within contacts throws the message. 
    Interestingly, when contacts is closed and I use the phone's search function (the one appearing in active standby) it will search contacts just fine.
    There must be something within Contacts search that is messed up, if it was corruption the overall phone search probably wouldn't work.
    Also, I'm wondering if it may be an isync issue, the isync add-in from Nokia for the mac may be the issue, perhaps it's the culprit.
    I tried tweeting @nokiamessaging but they did not reply, I don't know if they are on top of the problem or may have reported it to Nokia. 
    It's frustrating, very frustrating. My old e61 never had issues like this. The e72 is giving me a headache, I've spent now over 30 hours on this contacts problem. Arggh. 
    am e72 as of yesterday, 2 dec 2009. was e61. previously 6310i, which is an amazingly well designed and tough phone with awesome battery life. i even had a banana slider, but that was way pre-matrix.

  • UNC search doesn't work?

    One thing that I have noticed since the Developer Preview is that I am no longer able to type a UNC path into the search bar under the start menu. Doesn't work if I'm going \\servername\sharename\filename.ext and it doesn't work if I go driveletter:\filename.ext.
    That isn't just on mapped network locations - that doesn't even work if you want to go to c:\users. 
    How many people actually go through Windows Explorer to navigate to locations? Not me. This would be a deal breaker for me.
    Is there a fix? A hidden option that for some reason is not set by default like EVERY other iteration of Windows? Bueller?

    Hi,
    Based on my test, UNC path really doesn't work in Search Box. Up to now, I doesn't find any solution with this problem, hope it could be fixed in the future.
    On the other hand, opening a file which locate on specific local drive through Search Box should be work. Such as when I want to open a test.txt file on C drive through Search Box, when I type C:\test.txt, the txt file could be opened successfully.
