Bridge Compact Mode window will not float

I cannot get the Bridge CS3 compact mode window to float on top of Indesign CS3 (or any other application) despite having it checked to do so. Resetting preferences doesnt help. Bridge otherwise works as it should.
Any ideas please?

Dear Bob,
I am having the same problem but your solution does not swork for me. I have 6 VPCs on my "host" PC and 5 of them are working normally but one has gone into shut down mode but will not shut down. Due to memory restirctions, I can only run 2 VPCs at a time
so this one is cutting that to one. I found I can hibernate it by using CTRL-ALT-DEL on the host and doing "End task" on the dodgy VPC, but it still says "Running" in the Virtual Machines folder and it will not let me delete the .vsv file for the dodgy VPC.
If I then rty to open it again, the window opens but with "Shutting down" showing and none of the VM menus work: shut down and restart both say "Cannot shut down this virtual machine"; tools / integration features runs but says it cannot start integration;
Ctrl+Alt+Del does nothing at all. Ideally, I would like to restart the VM to get a few settings from it and then shut it down and delete it (it is a failed development) but right now I would settle for anything that gets rid of it altogether! Any suggestions?
Why doesn't MS provide a way of forcefully shutting down a VM?

I right click on link, click, open in new window, then nothing happens. Or, windows within a page will not open, for example, on gmail, when I click "details" the window will not open.

When I right click on a hot link, then click, open in a new window, a window will not open. Alternatively, I can click, open in a new tab, and a new tab will open. Additionally, if I'm at a website with a chat feature, the chat window will not open, or, as another example, if I'm at gmail, and I click "details", the window that opens giving the summary of when your account has been opened and the IP addresses it's been accessed from, will not open.
I have on the computer, Aurora too. I doubt that it's a source of the problem, but I had to throw that into the mix. For clarification, this problem is happening while using the Firefox browser.

You can middle-click a link to open the link in a new tab.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Open link in new window will not work

I am running Firefox 3.6.12 on Windows XP and have never had a problem until just recently. If I right click and select "open link in new window", a new window will open, but it is blank. This started about a week ago while playing Pogo...the game rooms will not load because they open in a new window. Now I am noticing that it is with everything, not just Pogo.
I have tried checking and unchecking the "block pop-ups" option and the new windows will not load either way.
Any help would be appreciated!!!
Thanks!

Firefox will not open. Process runs, but browser window will not open.

I am unable to get the Firefox browser window to launch. The application will attempt to open, but the browser window will not appear. Task manager indicates that the process is running, it just will not launch the window. No amount of restarts or reboots will make a difference. The strange thing about this is that Firefox has never run. This is a new computer and this issue has been a problem since it was first plugged in.
Troubleshooting steps attempted thus far:
1) Attempted to open in safe mode - will not open
2) Attempted to run in administrator mode- will not open
3) Completely uninstalled application, including profile info and reinstalled
4) Uninstalled known conflicts - Skype 4 (do not have Norton)
5) Even though issues since new, I ran a virus scan just in case-nothing
6) Uninstalled Chrome which I installed after originally being unsuccesful at getting FF to install (I uninstalled it before I began all of these troubleshooting steps as I have heard of conflicts)
I am now at a loss and willing to try any other steps that you guys can suggest.
Computer is running Windows 7 pro 64 bit. Running McAffee virus software. There are three identical computers in my office, purchased at exactly the same time with the same configuration. Mine is the only one that will not run firefox. Sadness. Please help, pleeeease...

Win 7 with iTunes installed - I was also having problems with that.
"netsh winsock reset" at the command prompt resolved all issues and Firefox launched normally.
Check to see if Winsock is corrupted. May prevent FF from communicating with the web and consequently fails to launch properly - for my situation was not a firewall or antivirus block!

Click Start, and in Start Search, type cmd.
Right-click the cmd entry that appears in the search results, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.
At the command prompt, type the following, and then press ENTER:
netsh winsock reset
Then, you should see the following message:
Successfully reset the Winsock Catalog. You must restart the computer in order to complete the reset.
Restart the computer.
Note If you receive an “Access Denied” error message instead of the message that is mentioned in step 3, the command prompt was not correctly elevated. In this case, close the Command Prompt window, and repeat steps 1 through 3. Make sure that you correctly implement step 2.

The url window will not take me to web address when I type it in. Has always worked before, I have not changed any settings.

Suddenly today, the url window will not work. I checked Internet Explorer and it works fine on that. I type in www.ups.com and hit enter....nothing....what do I do to make this work again?

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

Firefox Window will not open/pop up, I only get a load/hourglass icon

Firefox window will not open (at all) I simply get a load signal and then it stops.
I have attempted a reinstall and it did not solve it (downloaded a torrent)
Other programs work, I have msn so internet works as well
I've tried restarts and resets of modem as well as tried using in safe mode and did a virous scan, as well I turned off my firewall to see if it was for some reason blocking the program, same results... consitering doing a computer wipe :(
Just got internet explorer to run (without add ons) it was not work before as well (but at least the window popped up, it was just having a "not responding"
any suggestions?

Fire Fox v3.6.3 will not run in normal or safe mode, also will not uninstall

FF v 3.6.3 for windows vista will not open and run in normal or safe mode, FF will not uninstall from folder or add/remove programs, tried to reinstall from Mozilla site did not work. Internet Explorer also will not run and crashes. I am using Safari it runs fine no problems. FF has been crashing for about a week unexpectedly but will reopen and run, but will not run at all now..?

From the Crash ID information, it seems this is related to the AVG antivirus, version 8.5.

Please let us know if this fixes the problem with Firefox crashing.

Iphoto is stuck in IMPORT mode and will not QUIT!

iphoto is stuck in IMPORT mode and will not QUIT!
please let me know what to do
the iphoto version is 5.0.1

Hi ambrosia,
i am afraid that if you force quit right now you will run into problems opening your library when you next try.
If it is at all possible (an I don't even know if this will work while iPhoto is running) open a finder window and navigate to the iPhoto Library folder.
Highlight the folder and hit Command D to duplicate the folder. I am hoping you can do this before any changes are made to the data files that might corrupt them when you force quit iPhoto.
Once you have the duplicate library, then you can see if you can Force quit iPhoto. You can do this if you see the "force quit" option when you click and hold on the iPhoto icon in the dock. You can also launch Activity Monitor and find iPhoto in the window and choose to force quit it from there.
What kind of camera do you have and how many images and or video clips are you trying to download. Sometimes iPhoto gets stuck on very large video clips and eventually they will download.

New tap window will not open

''duplicate - locking - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/783813''
I've asked earlier bout on Firefox that the new tap window will not open when I hit the open new tap button, but I just seen that it will open when it is forced to open a new tap window by the system..but when manually I still cnt open it @ all

Although advised not to, I finally hit the reset button in the Save Mode Window. This corrected the problem. I suspect a faulty add-on - I try and reject many. I will add them back on at a time as I develop the need. Thanks for you help.

Windows Will Not Stay Selected

Menu bar app windows, as well as other windows will not stay selected. To type on some of these windows, I have to click on the window after every letter or else it will become unselected.

vanborki, welcome to the forum,
it sounds as though you have a corrupted userinit.exe file as safe mode also insn't working. Have you also tried last known working configuration? You could try replacing the file, google can help here.
Worst case is that you have caught some spyware, this will not only have corrupted your userinit.exe file, but also changed the registry entries. There are methods of fixing this using BartPE boot discs.
Your drive will be accessable allowing you to attach it to another system and copy your important files. A system recovery may be the easiest option to get your ThinkPad up and running again.

ITunes window will not open

I can play iTunes but the main window will not appear. It isn't minimized or hidden. The program is open and functioning, menus are there, Equalizer opens OK, but I just can't view any music (or the Visualizer UNLESS I'm in Full Screen mode under View). Using 8.0.2 with Mac OS 10.4.11 and I have no idea why it started happening. I launched iTunes and the window just never opened. Any ideas?

Mike,
Several people have found the iTunes window almost off the bottom of the screen. Use the  menu to hide or move the dock and see if you can see the iTunes window and drag it back on the screen.
You could also try using Exposé (typically the function 9 key) to show all windows. If the iTunes window is exposed, click in it.
You can try using system preferences -> displays to change your display resolution and you might find it.
Lastly, if you are using Spaces, is it in another space?

My MacBook Pro will not start. When I started it goes to a gray screen with the Apple logo and has the spinning dial. When I started in safe mode it will not start. In safe mode it as an error message that says MacBook Launch_msg():Socket is not connected

If running 10.7 or later hold down Command-R at Startup.
This should invoke recovery Mode.
Choose Disk Utility.
Select your Hard drive. Inspect the SMART Status in the lower right of the window for "Verified".
Select the Mac OS X Volume (originally Macintosh HD) click (Repair Disk)
If errors, run again until it comes clean or gets stuck.
Report any error messages.
