Applications view changes from Icons to Column

I've gone into applications and checked icon view. All worked well til a month or so ago. When I went in to apps. I noticed it was in column view. I switched it back to icon view, then shut down. Next day, same thing. Apple couldn't give me a resolution. It's not really a big deal, since I'm not in there much, but it would be nice to know what the problem is. Any suggestions?

Ok, I tried that. The terminal did nothing so I added sudo in front of the pasted text mv /Applications/.DS_Store ~/.Trash/DS_Store and I got a sort of warning with three points ( one was something about with great knowledge comes great power, another was respect others, something like that.) Then it prompted me to enter my password. I did, the screen did nothing, like you typed, and then I went to empty the trash but the trash was empty. I tried to do it again, but nothing. Am I missing something. When you type "run" you mean enter it in the line where the command prompt is and then press enter, or am I doing it wrong? Thanks for your reply, and I'm going to log out and try again.

  • History view changes from any of previous days (e.g. Yesterday, Lasst 7 days) to the "Today" view within a few seconds. How to stop this?

    When I want to review my browsing history, maybe after losing a session, I can't keep the history view at anything but the "Today" view for more than a few seconds.

    Dear [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/681368?#threadId681372 Morbus],
    By "more than a few seconds" I mean even when I do nothing. I'm aware of the behavior you describe and in previous versions there was a work-around for it. You could select the next history entry before the view changes.

  • Change from icon view to list view

    When iTunes upgraded, my music went from list view to icon view.  How can I change it back.  The icons are too big and take up too much space.
    Any help would really be appreciated.

    Hi nedrod,
    Yeah, in the Genre view, it does show it with an icon. However, you can always add "Genre" to your column view on the Songs list, and then if you click on it, it will sort the song list by Genre. Not sure if that helps, but it does provide a way to get a list of songs within a specific Genre in alphabetical "Genre" order. Clicking that column once will sort it in A-Z order, clicking it again will sort it in Z-A order.
    Hope that helps!
    Cheers,

  • Example of an OO ALV that reflects changes from an editable column...

    Hello Experts,
    I am currently developing a report wherein I need to add the value entered by the user to
    another column. For example, Column A is editable and the user entered the value 100 in a
    given cell. I need to add that value(100) to column B. Simple examples would be highly appreciated.
    Thank you guys and take care!

  • Finder: Changing from thumbnail view to column view takes me back to the root folder.

    Hi,
    I was hoping someone could help me with this as it's getting a bit tedious having to re-navigate back to the folder I was in. This problem is only occuring when I am working from an external NAS Drive.
    I need to switch between thumbnail view and column view regularly, but whenever I change from thumnails to column - finder jumps back to the root folder, meaning I have to work my way back to where I was.
    I can't figure out how to stop this happening! It doesn't happen when changing from column to thumbnails, only the other way round..
    Thanks for any suggestions!
    Sarah.

    Hi Barney,
    Thanks for your reply Unfortunately though I already use AFP on the NAS drive and still have the problem, so it seems this is an issue with both AFP and CIFS..

  • Possible Bug In Application Import (LOV binding lost for columns in IR)

    Hi,
    I've experienced strange behavior when after I imported application into APEX 4.1
    What I have done:
    1) Exported application from 4.0 - (db 11.1)
    2) Imported application into different instance - APEX 4.1 (db 11.2) to different workspace (using diferent schema) and with different application ID - manually changed (original was 106 new was 206)
    What happened:
    In Interactive Reports columns that were displayed as "Display as Text (Based on LOV, escape special characters)" lost their link to appropriate LOV - so the field "Named List of Values" shows "- Select Named LOV -" instead of the LOV name, which was assigned there in original application I exported.
    Also - Named LOV imported OK with application.
    And If application was imported under same ID, this issues was not there. So it looks only related if application ID changes from exported app.
    Any idea why such strange behaviour happens? Is it bug, if yes is there already fix for it?
    I have two workspaces on same db instance and want to migrate application between them - this make things complicated.
    Regards
    Ivan

    Hi,
    this is bug# 10369735 which has been fixed in 4.1. It was a problem of the export in 4.0 which didn't include all the necessary information. See Copying or exporting an application - bug?  LOVs not getting set in reports
    So I think you have two options:
    1) If you upgrade your existing 4.0 system to 4.1 you should be fine. If you now export your app all the LOV information will be included.
    2) If you export from a 4.0 system and import it into a 4.1 system you have fix your LOVs once again and then you are fine.

  • Folder view changes after saving file

    After a while, whenever I choose a starting folder in a save dialog, where the folder view is Columns, the folder view changes to that view in Finder as well, but I want it to stay in List view, while brows in the save dialog in Columns view.
    How can I make sure, that whichever folder I choose from the save dialog, it's view never changed from List to Columns view, (regardless wether I choose Column view, or it opened already in that view) without changing each and every folder preference individually?

    Every time you resave a JPEG, information is lost. How much depends upon the degree of compression - more compression, more loss, smaller file.
    A one off save is probably insignifincant. The fact that the file size changes is unsurprising. PSE probably does its compression a bit differently from the camera.

    I want to read my emails in horizontal view - reading pane at the bottom of the monitor - on iCloud. I cannot change the view from vertical and columns? Anyone know how I can do this? It was called 'classic view' in Mobileme.

    Thanks, got that.

  • Folders constantly change from list to icon view by themselves

    For example, I'll open my Applications folder, change it to list view, close it, then a few minutes later open it again and it'll be in icon view. There's no rhyme or reason as to when this happens or with which folders. This used to happen in 10.3 as well and I could never figure out how to keep folders in the view I want them. Thanks.

    It could be, it is a corrupt .DS_Store file. In this files, the Finder store the window settings. You could try to remove this files. I mean too, that is an generally problem under 10.3.
    You can use: sudo find / -name .DS_Store -delete, this delete all .DS_Store files. Or use sudo find . -name .DS_Store -delete, if you want only delete this files in your location.

  • How to view records as icons in several columns

    Hi
    I cannot find the way how to show report representing records as icons organized in several columns - similary as applications are shown if "Icons" view is selected in HTMLDB 2.0 development environnment homepage. No available report template did the job.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks a lot :-)))

    Hi Vikas
    Thanks for the tip. It was interesting insight into HTMLDB internals....
    I'we found the way how to do the same job with a standard report template by building the SELECT in the following way:
    select col1,col2,col3,col4,col5
    from(
    select
    opportunity_name col1,
    lead(opportunity_name,1,'') OVER (ORDER BY opportunity_name) col2,
    lead(opportunity_name,2,'') OVER (ORDER BY opportunity_name) col3,
    lead(opportunity_name,3,'') OVER (ORDER BY opportunity_name) col4,
    lead(opportunity_name,4,'') OVER (ORDER BY opportunity_name) col5,
    case when mod(rank () OVER (ORDER BY opportunity_id) -1,5)=0 then 1 else 0 end endofline
    from opportunities
    order by opportunity_name)
    where endofline=1
    BTW: It's a tip for HTMLDB developers
    ============================
    What about to add the classical Windows File Explorer Viewer with "Small Icons/Large Icons/List Detail" display options as one of standard report templated???

    Hi Raghavendar,
    Generally, when you install Lync 2013 in the computer with Office 2010, a Lync Meeting Add-in will be installed and enabled in Outlook 2010. Please follow these steps to check it:
    1. In Outlook, click the File tab, click Options, and then click
    Add-Ins.
    2. Please take one of the following actions:
    If the add-in is in the Inactive Application Add-ins list, follow these steps:
    a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
    COM Add-ins, and then click Go.
    b. Click to select the check box next to the add-in, and then click OK.
    The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
    Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should be available when you create a new calendar item.
    If the add-in is in the Disabled Application add-ins list, follow these steps:
    a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
    Disabled Items, and then click Go.
    b. Select the add-in, and then click Enable.
    c. Restart Outlook, and then verify that the add-in is displayed in the
    Add-ins dialog box.
    The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
    Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should now be available when you create a new calendar item.
    3. In Event Viewer, view the Application log to see whether an error was logged for Outlook, for Lync 2013, the Lync Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office 2013.
    Thanks,

  • Change base view state from a custom component

    I'm pretty new to flex and I'm having a small issue in change the view state from a component.
    My Application have 2 custom components called userlogin and main menu. In the main application page I have userlogin component in one state and the main menu component in another. I'm trying to change the state if the login in successful from user login to main menu. I have the following function written inside the login component.
    private function IsUserLoggedIn(evt:ResultEvent):void
                    if (evt.result.islogin.toString() == "true")
                        currentState = "MainMenu";
                    else
                        Alert.show("Login failed, please try again.", "Login Failed");
    This code worked when I had all the controls in the main page. But then I created components and included them in to components and now when the login is success, its giving the following error.
    ArgumentError: Undefined state 'MainMenu'.
        at mx.core::UIComponent/getState()[E:\dev\4.0.0\frameworks\projects\framework\src\mx\core\UI Component.as:9908]

        at components::UserLoginForm/__btnSubmit_click()[C:\Projects\WarrantyAutomation\src\componen ts\UserLoginForm.mxml:60]
    I'm sure this has something to do with accessing the states from a custom component, but I do not know how to change the state to the main menu. Please help me with this. Any help is greatly appriciated.

    Hi dasun1981,
    private function IsUserLoggedIn(evt:ResultEvent):void
                    if (evt.result.islogin.toString() == "true")
                        currentState = "MainMenu";
                    else
                        Alert.show("Login failed, please try again.", "Login Failed");
    If I am right the above function is in your userlogin component and the two components "userlogincomponent" and "maincomponent" are in main application file and the states were also defined in main application file.
    But in the function above the currentState refers to the state of the userlogin component and not the main application ...but the states are defined in main application file...that's the reason why the exception was thrown...
    Instead you replace the line in the above function with the below line:
    Application.application.currentState = "MainMenu";
    Please mark it as answer if it helped you.
    Thanks,

  • Changing firefox icon in Applications Internet?

    Hi, I know I know, Gran Paradiso is the same, but I removed "Grand Paradiso" and used the AUR and yaourt to install firefox, the official one.  So, I can make a launcher on the desktop and its the Official Firefox icon, but if I make one in the System > Admin > Main Menu, it will still show up in Applications > Internet as the Icon for Gran Paraiso, that blue orb.  Why is it that creating a launcher on the desktop uses the firefox icon and Internet > Firefox is still the blue orb.  I did try and drag the desktop icon the the Main Menu editor as well. 
    Help to change the Applications > Internet > Firefox icon???
    THANKS!

    hi there, found a bit of info for you from here: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Gnome_Menu_tweaking
    pacman -S alacarte
    that will install menu editor if you havent got it yet. then what i do from there to change the icon is open Alacarte by right clicking Applications, select Edit Menus.... find Firefox that i want to change.... right-click it, select Properties... change Name to Firefox or whatever you want, click the icon on left side to change to what you want (this will all be done on the Properties window). anyways i hope this helps you out. good luck
    edit: maybe you could also try a new icon theme out from gnomelook.org if you havent already.

  • Application Not Launching from Desktop Icon

    With every new release our jars change from say jarA-release1.jar to jarA-release2.jar etc. We don't use any version based JNLP download, hence the new jars are downloaded based on the last modified date. When we move from release 1 to release 2, customers launch the application from Desktop icon and get the new jars downloaded. But when they logout and try to launch the application again from desktop, it fails because the desktop icon still references the old cache. Any suggestions please?
