Avi opens in new window - crashes - not responding

i embed an avi in director.
it works in win xp but not in win2000
avi opens in new window and crashes down.
how can i solve that problem?
thank you,
andi

Hi Andi,
First, I don't quite follow what you mean by embedding the
video.
Director always treats video as external casts. So, when you
import an
AVI file, you just import a pointer to the file and that
video needs to
be bundled with the Director movie when you want it to play
on various
computers.
So, is that's what's happening?
The video could have a compression that the XP computer likes
but is
problematic on the 2000 one. Try playing the video outside of
Director
and see if it plays fine on each computer.

OPEN IN NEW WINDOW is not working

when I chick on "OPEN IN NEW WINDOW" all I get is a blank page;
This was not a problem in MF3x

I was able to narrow down the add-ons Shareaholic and CoolIris Previews as the culprits in my case. If you have either of these, try disabling them. It solved my problem. My guess is not all add-on publishers have their stuff working in FF 4. In any case using the safe mode and disabling all add-ons, then going through them one-by-one goes a long way to fixing this issue...annoy though it may be.

Right click on a link and selecting "open in new window" does not work. How do I gewt this feature to work? PS Right click on a link and selecting open in new tab does.

No matter where the link is - in an e-mail or on a web page - the "Open in new window" feature does not work. Very annoying. Also I close Firefox in a session, but then cannot re-open it. When I shut my PC down I get a prompt to End Task -[ Firefox ] and a window opens asking if I want to save tabs and quit; quit; or cancel. After closing Firefox it does not show as an application running in Task Manager
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I recently re-installed Firefox.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

Task List URL (to FR Report) opens in new window, but not for all users!

Hi all,
I am not sure if this is the correct forum to ask the question (for me it looks like an IE topic), but perhaps anybody can help me anyway...
In one of our Planning apps (9.3.1) we defined several task lists and tasks that link to relevant FR Reports (URL Tasks). If I open the URL task in basic view the relevant FR Report opens in the same IE Window (in the main frame of the planning app). If my colleague opens the same task the FR Reports opens in a new IE Window.
My problem is that I dont have any ideas where I can set the relevant property. Is that a planning property, a workspace property or an IE property setting??? Where can I adjust the settings that for ALL users the URL opens the Report in the same window??????
Thanks in advance!!!!
Kind Regards
André
P.S.: We are on IE8.

Have you both got the same settings in Tools > Internet Options > Tabs Settings
There was also a bug though I can't say if it is related to your issue
9549216 - Instead of a new tab, a new window is displayed after you create a Financial Reporting task in Workspace.

ITunes Store "open in new window"

Whatever I do I cannot make iTunes Store open in a new window. I want to see if I already have a version of the music I am about to order, but the selection "open in new window" is not selectable - iTunes Store opens on top of iTunes start page.. Solution anyone?

Hi:
I had the same problem and, while I'm sure there is an easier way, this is the only thing I was able to come up with after messing around for a while and convincing myself I was using the wrong search strings on Google.
In iTunes:
• go to iTunes/Preferences/Store,
• uncheck the last selection that says "Use full window for iTunes Store,"
• click OK,
• click the "iTunes Store" link,
• right click the same link after the store appears,
• select "Open in New Window,"
• return to the original window and your Music Library should be displayed,
• now you can switch back and forth and save money, and
• hope someone can post an easier way to do this.

HTML Container - pdf-file opens a new window

I use the ITS Webservice PZ04.
There is included a html container who shows the pdf-file inside this area.
Now I have the effect, that this pdf-file will opena a new window, but not inside the html container!?
First action before I have had this effect was the MS question-alert 'How you will open this file' Open/Download/Cancel - you know. - it never done before -
What can I do to open my pdf-file inside the html container? It runs some times.
Thanks!

thank you for your answer, but it wasn't the solution.
I don't open the iView in a new window.
I open the iView (as IAC WebService via ITS) and the applacation generated a html container with pdf file!
And this pdf-file opens in a new window.
The Application runs up to now very good.
I think any value was changed and I don't know which.
It's possible the modification solved under MS or adobe!?
Solution: First Deinstallation and then Installation of Acrobate Reader.

Hi Rongrong,
the only other way I can think of is by using a link with target="_blank". There always needs to be an action/trigger on the frontend opening a new window, you cannot force it from the backend as there is no push mechanism within http, meaning once the response is processed and sent out to the requestor you don't have any link to the frontend any more by which you could push data from the backend to the frontend. Session information for http is always kept either in cookies or in specially mangled URL's and not by the protocol.
Hope that helps.
Best Regards
Michael

Do you have a profile lock file in your profile folder? If so, delete it and see if TB runs properly:

Firefox is OPEN and working fine, but when I click a link in Thunderbird I get 'Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.'

If I click a link on my desktop or in any other program (while Firefox is open and running), I get this message: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." There's about a billion links for this if you Google it, but they all say that Firefox wasn't shut down properly. (OK, maybe not ALL of them, but if the needle is in that haystack, I haven't yet found it.) That's not the issue in my case since I haven't shut FF down at all.

This began to happen to me when I tried to run two separate profiles simultaneously on the same installation of firefox with -no-remote

Doesn't start when starting as administrator. Error Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.

Update firefox, it asked me to update flash, I tried to update flash but it said I had to close firefox. A box came up and said the Flash install would continue when I closed firefox. I closed all firefox windows and no update of flash occurred. I tried relaunching firefox but got the "Doesn't start when starting as administrator. Error Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." message. I rebooted the system, no improvement. I tried to run firefox as administrator and got the same message. Either I find a fix or I won't be able to use firefox and will have to go back to ie.

I deleted the profile and firefox4 and then downloaded firefox4 again. But when i click firefox it says Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process,or restart your system.HELP!

somehow i couldn't get rid of one website called www.searchqu.com/405 set as my homepage... I tried all solutions given to change the homepage but whenever i restarted firefox that homepage used to come automatically.. So, I deleted the profile (even from recycle bin!!) and deleted the firefox and downloaded it again hoping to get my problems fixed (which didn't happen!) because i'm getting dialog box saying- Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.

You don't say which operating system you have installed?
Assuming it's Windows, right click a blank part of the Windows Taskbar and go to Task Manager. Then click the ''Processes ''tab, find '''firefox.exe''' and then right click it and choose '''End Process'''.

This box appears and then firefox quits...never opens.
I have uninstalled, and loaded firefox 5 times and never got it to run.
