[10.0.7 ESR] Temporary documents are read-only again, even with the "browser.helperAppsbrowser.helperApps.deleteTempFileOnExit" parameter set on "false". Why?

We currently updated from the old 3.6 Firefox to the ESR version 10.0.7. Eversince we've used Firefox we've had a problem with documents being read-only when downloaded temporarily. But we've found the solution by finding the entry
browser.helperAppsbrowser.helperApps.deleteTempFileOnExit
in the about:config and setting it on false. Documents were writeable again, and the world was full of fluffy unicorns and rainbows.
But that doesn't seem to be sufficient when using Firefox 10.0.7 ESR, since that entry is set but all our documents are read-only again. We checked that it is a Firefox issue by deactivating all add-ons to be sure, that it's the browser itself that makes that setting.
What is the cause and how can we change it back to them being writeable again?
Andrea

While that may be best practice, it doesn't help in this case.
We use a system that creates documents by using templates and filling datafields with individual values based on the case that is being worked on. These documents are saved in the system and are only displayed for information purpose.
Still some of these documents have to be altered. The system offers this possibility by letting you edit the temp file and load it back up, so that the altered document is saved in the system. The document gets a unique file name in the temp folder which includes numbers so that the system can identify which document in the system should be overwritten by the altered version.
Since the documents aren't meant to be on the local harddrive anyway but in the system, "save as..." is no real solution in this case.

  • Sharepoint 2010 Library - All documents are Read Only regardless of permissions and clicking edit

    Good afternoon all,
    I'm running out of places for me to find assistance on this issue, and am hoping you can help. We're running Sharepoint 2010 as our Intranet. Myself and the rest of the IT staff are administrators, and we're looking under a section that we're specifically
    in control of where we have documents for our use. One of the administrators reported that he wasn't able to open a document, and neither was I. This was an older spreadsheet that was never converted. I couldn't open it either, nor could I delete it or manipulate
    the entry in the library. I could open explorer and open the file that way, or download it through Chrome.
    I was able to remove the file, upconvert the file to .xlsx, and reupload it. Now myself and the users are able to open the file, but we can't manipulate it. In addition to this, it seems that any Office file that we attempt to open in Sharepoint opens up
    in Read Only. If we click Read Only, and hit Edit, it stays Read Only (once in a blue moon it allows us to edit it). If we hit edit it still says Read Only at the top.
    I'm not the most experienced at Sharepoint so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

  • Display Word Document as read only in VI pannel

    In a VI pannel I put an Active X container with the IE browser to display Word documents.
    The document are displayed properly but I want not give the user the possibility to make changes while viewing.
    Is there a solution to do so?
    (The documents are read-only and can not be saved.)

    Why use an IE container to display Word documents? You can place a word document directly in the ActiveX container. This seems a better choice.
    If you wish to totally block user-input, you can place a transparent picture control over the display of the Word document.
    Another alternative would be to convert the word document to a PDF and show this in an AcviteX container.

  • Open a document in read only mode

    HI All,
    I created a panel in which we have
    edit box which shows the document path
    Browse button to allow a user to select an indesign document
    "Open read only" button.
    My requirement is that after selecting an Indesign document if user click to "OPen read only" button then it will opened selected document in read only mode.
    I will be highly thankfull to all community memeber if anyone can give me some hint to achieve this.
    Regards,
    Alam

    Alam,
    If you change the attributes of the file before opening it to read only the file will be opened as read only by Indesign. And then you could place a responder that could clear this read only flag when the file is being closed so that the permissions are restored to the original state.

  • How to set only part of the document as "read-only"?

    Hi,
    I am using SharePoint 2010. I would like to set some of the columns as "read-only" while some of them are still editable. If I use Advanced Settigns>Item-Level Permissions, I can only set the whole document as "read-only".
    Is there a way I can do what I wannt?
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi,
     There is no OOTB way to set a column as read-only.  I think you want to make some of the fields as Read-Only in the EditForm.aspx. If so, then you can use the Javascript to do. 
    Add a Content editor webpart to the Editform.aspx page and place the javascript method to make a field read-only.
    You can use the _spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("MakeReadOnly()") method to assocaite your method to the EditForm.
    Here are the links which will help you.

    Hi Hany,
    the error message tells you that the field DocEntry is a read-only property. That means this field must not occur in the receiver payload. The fields DocEntry, DocNum etc. will be created automatically by the receiving system.
    Please have a look at the SDK Help (DI Reference) according to your current version. There you will see which fields are read-only.
    Kind regards,

  • Fields for creation of BP in cProjects front-end are read-only

    Hi everyone,
    I'm a beginner in SAP-Development/Customizing so I hope this question isn't too easy
    I can't create a Business Partner using the cProjects front-end (Ressources > Staffing) because the necessary fields and buttons are read-only... (> web-Dynpro Component: DPR_ROL_STAFF; View-Info: VI_SEARCH_CREATE)
    I'm using CPRXRPM 450_700 patch 0006
    The field-control is standard-SAP (0SAP).
    My user-account has all cProject-roles + SAP-ALL
    I assume i can change the behaviour of these fields in the Field Control but I can't identify which is the corresponding Object Category to apply the changes.
    - Is there a documentation which field belongs to which Object Category in Field Control?
    - Or can somebody tell me a procedure to find it out on my own?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    generally it is recommended to use transaction BP or ALE distribution to get the business partner be created.
    If you would like to create the BP in web UI directly, the user must have the Structural Authorization, see customizing path:
    Collaboration Projects -> Resource Management -> Organizational Management.
    It is very HR related topic, you may contact a HR consultant to know more details about it.
    Kind regard,

  • "The selected cells are read-only" error on Custom Field when trying to insert in Datasheet mode

    I have a custom field that works completely fine. Yesterday our QA team found out that when trying to insert in Datasheet format, the error "The selected cells are read-only" was thrown. Any ideas? I tried passing the following property to my fldtypes_field.xml file:

    No luck.Victor Palma

  • Photographs all are read only??

    Hi folks. I wasn't sure where to put this question so it may not be in the right place. I have the iMac and my wife has a Dell PC (poor thing :0)). I copied all of the photo's she has collected onto a DVD to transfer them to my iMac for editing and future publishing to the web. I use Photo Shop Elements 6 to do this with, but it would not let me edit due to insufficient permissions! I must admit I chuckled when that came up since I took most of these photo's. So I opened Finder, browsed to the directory where the photo's are and using "Get Info" I found that all of these photo's and directories and subdirectories (literally hundreds of photo's) are read only permission. All I'm looking for is a way to make them all read/write en masse. Is there a way?
    Thanks,
    Rich

    Hi Richard
    I don't have a-lot of experience with the windows OS's, but do share hundreds of JPEG images every year with PC user's and that sounds like a problem with the photo files or the way they were burned onto the DVD. If you have a MS-DOS FAT 32 formatted External HD, a Flash Drive or Card Reader & Camera Card you should have no problems transferring the Original JPEG Photo Files back and forth between a Windows box and Mac.

  • Can't insert widget as document head read only

    When I try to insert my LIghtbox Gallery widget into my web page in CS5.5 I get the message
    "This widget requires code that must be inserted into the head of the doucment. Insertion cannot happen as the head of this document is read only"
    How do i turn read only off? Or is there any other way to insert it?
    Many Thanks

    Hello Jenny,
    if I understand you correctly, you should only call the widget you need and click "code wiew"
    From there you have to copy the entire source code into an empty DW file. So you can see how that works.
    You can add only the needed code into your file or you can do it all in reverse, by adding your website contents into the widget source code.

    I have copied tens of directories with JPG pictures from a CD (that I burnt using Windows XP while on a trip overseas) to my iMac's HD. The problem is that all the copied files are read-only now and I cannot edit them... I tried using Finder to make them "writable" but the yellow padlock at the bottom of the Info window of the affected files is disabled (it's pale yellow, I cannot click on it).
    My questions are:
    a) why are the files read-only in the first place?
    did you copy those files while logged in as the current user? if yes, look at the permissions of the files on the CD. in general, when you copy something via drag and drop in finder the owner and the group of the file changes but posix permissions don't change. so if they were read for the owner and the group on the CD they will still be so when you copy them to the disk. this should not normally be the issue with windows burned disks though.
    Was it the way that I copied them (drag and drop in Finder)?
    no. that was the right way to copy.
    b) is there a way to modify the properties of a directory and its content in one single command to remove the read-only attribute?
    yes, but later on that.
    c) why is the padlock disabled in Finder? I expected to be prompted for my Admin password when clicking the padlock.
    that's strange. check the ambient folder. it could be locked for example. re the files sitting in some folder you made or are they on the desktop?
    Any help is appreciated.
