Dialog Boxes - For example Preferences Will Not Fit Screen

I am having a problem with Adobe Version 8 preset dialog boxes being too large for my screen. I also have the same problem in Quicken so it may not be an Adobe problem. In boxes such as Preferences or Properties when opened I can not access the bottom portion of the box. Particularly a problem when what is being hidden is the command button such as OK or SAVE or FINISH or CANCEL. The boxes open in a preset size and I can not modify the box size. Nor can I drag the header bar far enough off the screen to access the bottom command buttons. Use that lovely MS Vista. Might anyone have an idea on where to start? Danke Schoen!

I am using a Sony Vaio laptop. It uses a Generic plug and play monitor.
The screen size is 15 inches. Resolution is 1280 by 800 in true color 32
bit mode. Changing the screen resolution does not affect the problem in any
manner.
Knowing shortcut keys would not help. You can not see the bottom command
buttons, therefore which shortcut key do you use or is one even needed.
If the dialog boxes were resizeable then I would not have a problem. I went
looking for some setting in Version 8.1.5 that would allow me to resize
these boxes but it was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
I am updating to Version 8.1.6 to see if the newer version does anything to
help. And yes I the monitor drivers are all current.

No playlist too small for "this playlist will not fit on one audio CD"

What on earth is goin' on w/ iTunes ?! ( In my case it's 7.6.2 (9) )
After having a 91.MB playlist receive the “*The songs in this playlist will not fit on one audio CD"* for a 700 MB audio-CD burn, I searched around here and found this thread . . . granted it's for Windows, but other mentions dating back to Jan. seem to indicate the problems pretty universal.
Anyone know anything more on this ?

And didn't we used to be able to re-edit our postings here?
That URL trick didn't work and looks a mess now !

I just statred Flash CC for the first time and it seems that the text within the pop-up window (dialog box) is mis-aligned and not allowing me access to the command buttons, nor all the text. (ie: the NEW Template Box, can't see but 2/3 of the content)

Print Dialog Box for Addon is not showing in Terminal Server

Dear All,
I have created a addon for Automatic Sales Invoice printing that prints the crystal report directly to the printer bu opening a
print dialog box for printer selection through SDK code.
The Same addon works fine on the server with print dialog box being showing through SDK code.
But while running on Terminal Server , print dialog box is not showing any printer though printers are redirected to that
terminal server.I am not getting whether the problem is in my addon or in the terminal server printer settings.
Please suggest as i need to know the reason urgently.
Thanks
Amit

Hello Edward,
Thanks for your reply .
But the problem is that while running on normal server the print dialog box appear with the printer name in my addon for printer selection .
But while using terminal server , the print dialog box is not getting any printer in the dialog box .That's the major concern for me
is their any way to check that why the printers are not showing in print dialog box.
Thanks ,
Amit

Unable to Burn CDs in iTunes for Windows: (Will not fit, but it should.)

I am attempting to fix an issue with a friend's iTunes for Windows. Although previously this computer using this media was able to burn audio CDs through iTunes, recently, an error has appeared before any burn. When loading the proper amount of time to fit on a CD, iTunes claims:
"The songs in this playlist will not fit on one Audio CD"
"Do you want to create multiple Audio CDs with this playlist split across them?"
"This will require more than one CD to complete."

Hey,
Under warranty you'd be better then to call into phone support, if something has to be done with the notebook, they'll be able to set that up with you.

InDesign "Save As" dialog box for every operation in INDB book file; updating page numbers, etc.

So I haven't used INDB files in awhile in InDesign, and today was the first time I attempted to adjust an old INDB (created originally with CS5). For every operation of adjusting the book file, such as updating page/section number or adding/removing an INDD file I get a Save As dialog box for each constiuent INDD file. This is quite annoying since the book has lots of INDDs, and I have to click through the tedious save as with each. I previously worked with INDBs in CS5, and never encountered this, there was no need to save each INDD in the book just to update the page numbers. I tried creating a new INDB in CS5.5 thinking that maybe it was because I was working from a file created with an older version of InDesign. Does anyone know if there is a way to suppress the Save As dialog? Another thing I noticed that is supremely frustrating is that this new build of InDesign doesn't default to saving the file in its original location, and I have unwittingly ended up saving files in other places, only to later realize it. I am using InDesign CS5.5 Ver. 7.5.2 on Mac OSX 10.7.3 Any help is greatly appreciated.

It will only happen once (and frankly, what you are doing is a very bad idea).
When you open the old book in CS5, you are converting to the new format. All of the legacy files also need to be converted, even if added to a new book in CS5.5, hence the Save As since ID will not overwrite the old versions until you tell it to (and that's the bad idea). I strongly recommend (though it's too late for any books you've already updated and overwritten) that you either continue to edit in the old version, or that you take the time to open each file in the original version if it's older than CS5, then export to interchange format (.inx or .idml, depending on version), open those files in CS5.5, save with new names so you don't overwrite anything, then add to a new book and proceed.
One of the reasons I recommend this seemingly time-consuming approach is that there are too many reports (another one yesterday) of some sort of problem that pops up late in the editing cycle when converting legacy files to CS5/5.5 by opening them directly and saving. This is a belt and suspenders insurance approach, and is far less labor intensive than starting over, which might end up being your other option down the road if something goes wrong.

How to make a dialog box for a user to choose a file from disk

Hi there
Is it possible to make a dialog box, for a photoshop user, to choose a txt file, to be process by my javascript ?
I have a txt file with all the names and locations of psd files i want to process by photoshop. I have ex. 100 out of a folder with 250 images.
If anyone have a shot "code sample" how to select a file - i will be happy.
/T

Here is an example of selecting a text file...
var dlg=
"dialog{text:'Script Interface',bounds:[100,100,500,220],"+
"testFile:EditText{bounds:[10,40,310,60] , text:'' ,properties:{multiline:false,noecho:false,readonly:false}},"+
"Browse:Button{bounds:[320,40,390,61] , text:'<<' },"+
"statictext0:StaticText{bounds:[10,10,240,27] , text:'Please select Text File' ,properties:{scrolling:undefined,multiline:undefined}},"+
"Process:Button{bounds:[10,80,190,101] , text:'Process' },"+
"button2:Button{bounds:[210,80,390,101] , text:'Cancel' }};"
var win = new Window(dlg,'test');
win.center();
win.testFile.enabled=false;
win.Browse.onClick = function() {
selectedFile = File.openDialog("Please select TEXT file.","TEXT File:*.txt");
if(selectedFile != null) win.testFile.text = decodeURI(selectedFile.fsName);
win.Process.onClick = function() {
if(win.testFile.text == '') {
alert("No text file has been selected!");
return;
win.close(1);
selectedFile.execute();
win.show();

53.1 min, 51.5 MB playlist will not fit on one audio CD?

I'm trying to backup an album I bought from iTunes, but I keep getting the error that reads, "The songs on this playlist will not fit on one audio CD." The playlist is 53.1 minutes long and 51.5 MB in compressed size. The files are 128 kbps AAC. I've also tried a different playlist of 45.8 minutes and 43.7 MB and get the same error. I was originally using iTunes 7.3. I deleted that and switched to 7.2. I still get the same error. The dialog box gives me the option to put the playlist on multiple CD's, but that seems terribly wasteful to me. Besides, I suspect this is a bug or something. These albums ought to fit on a single CD. Has anyone else encountered this problem before and is there any way to fix it?

What is the "Extract" button at the bottom the DNG converter dialog box for ?

Does anyone know ....
What is the "Extract" button at the bottom the DNG converter dialog box for ?
THANK YOU

In DNG Converter you have an option to embed the original RAW files (CR2, NEF etc) into the DNG file (see screenshot). Later you might want to extract them back, for example, for converting in camera-maker's own software.
So, if you have any DNGs with original RAWs embedded, Extract button will get them back.

ITunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install. Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2. Any Thoughts?

iTunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install. Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2. Any Thoughts?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component won't install normally.
If needs be, the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility (MS Installer "Fixit") may be able to help force through the installation.

I have purchased a new computer and authorized my iTunes with my Apple ID; however, my iPod Classic, which I have had for many years, will not sync hundreds of songs that I have purchased and says the device needs to be authorized. Help!

I have purchased a new computer and authorized my iTunes with my Apple ID; however, my iPod Classic, which I have had for many years, will not sync hundreds of songs that I have purchased and says the device needs to be authorized.
I have searched high and low and there does not seem to be a way to authorize the iPod Classic. What can I do to sync my purchases to my iPod? I have tried reformatting/restoring it as suggested. It continues to only allow me to sync non-icloud/itunes content.
Help!

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

TS1389 when i changed my browser to IE 8, I am no longer able to play the songs I purchased. I keep getting a dialog box saying "this computer is not authorized to play this song. Would you like to authorize it? The box has an old apple ID . How do I get

I try to play the Itunes song I purchased. I have a new computer, another internet provider since I purchased the songs, and have switched to a new internet browser Internet Explorer 8. I keep getting a dialog box saying "this computer is not authorized to play the song. would you like to authorize it?
An old Apple ID popps up and I am asked for the old passwork which I no longer remember. I successfully changed to a new Apple ID and password.
when I enter that, a new dialog box appears, saying "this computer is already authorized." When I try to play the song the first box appears again,
I I go round over and over, with no success playing my songs. Can anybody out their resolve this? Thanks for any help

Were these songs purchased using another account?
" I opened a new iTunes account and copied the files to the new account. "
Do you mean to a new library?
Account is a user neame and password with which you purchase content.
A library is your collection of media.

How to handle the button "cancel" in a dialog box for displaying views?

Hello!
I ve a question about handling the cancel button in a dialog box for displaying views.
I ve already implemented the dialog box by using the following code:
METHOD eh_onnewqact.
DATA stitle TYPE string.
IF m_popup IS BOUND.
    stitle = cl_bsp_runtime=>get_otr_text( alias = 'ZCC_ICRM/NEW_TASK' )."cl_wd_utilities=>get_otr_text_by_alias( 'ZCC_ICRM/NEW_TASK' ).
    m_popup = comp_controller->window_manager->create_popup(
      iv_interface_view_name = 'ZCC_POPUP_NEWBT/NewQActWindow'
      iv_usage_name = 'CUNewQAct'
      iv_title = stitle
    CALL METHOD m_popup->set_on_close_event
      EXPORTING
        iv_view       = me
        iv_event_name = 'NEWQACT_POPUP_CLOSED'.
ENDIF.
m_popup->open( ).
ENDMETHOD.
My dialog box consists two buttons - cancel and create.
The cancel buttons should close the popup and the create button should create an entity of a specified object. but let us come to the cancel button. I did´nt find any information about implementing an cancel button. So, how should I implement it? I thougt
me->close( ). But that didnt works!
Could u give me further information about that, because my cancel event-handler is empty?
method EH_ONCANCEL_QACT.
endmethod.
After that I would know how my calling view could know that the user pushes the Create Button and how the data of 2 inputfields of the dialog box finds their way to the calling view in order to process this data there?
Thank you very much!

Hi Michael,
thank you for your advice! This problem is solved...
...but I have another issue. Ive implemented 2 editable fields in my popup. The user should fill that fields with context and that context should be processed in the calling view of my popup.
My question is how to transfer these information from my popup to my calling view or method?
I tried the following...
      lv_context_node ?= m_popup->get_context_node( 'QUICKACT' ).
      IF lv_context_node IS NOT INITIAL.
        lv_text = lv_context_node->get_date( attribute_path = '' ).
      ENDIF.
But it doesnt work! The context node object is always empty/initial.
Thank you!
PS: Another possibility could be that the object / node of the calling view is transferred to the pop-up in order to process it there.

I am running firefox 3.6.6, Avast 4.8.0 shows a trojan in the firefox exe upx. When I go to move it to the vault a dialog box says the file an not be found. I uninstalled firefox and got rid of all firefox traces using Revo. but I still get the trojan warning.

Any chance you have a dial-up connection that uses a web accelerator to speed the loading of content?
