Download window doesn't show downloaded files

Started having this issue a few weeks ago:
When downloading files, the Download pop-up window shows file download progress as it should. However, when download is finished the window clears and nothing shows in Download pop-up window.
When I search for file through Finder it appears and works fine.
I searched and found a related post that doesn't exactly match my issue. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11080958
It references Speed Download as the issue which I don't have.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks!

Klaus, thanks for the prompt reply.
I did look at the safari/preferences/general and the 'Remove download list items' is set to 'Manually'. As a test, I changed it to 'When Safari Quits' and downloads still do not appear on the Download pop-up window. When I switched it back to 'Manually' the problem still exists. Any thoughts?
Much appreciated.
edit: just remembered this issue appeared around when I installed Google Chrome. I've since removed Google Chrome and issue remains.

Ohh thanks guys!
It worked as a charm, and thanks Brisbin33 for the autostart.sh tip.
So the thing that caused my whole system not to work as it should was that I forgot to put a "&" after conky?
haha that´s kinda anoying I have been sitting and looking through like a milllion files looking for the answer
But again, really thanks!
/Neuwerld
that little "&" sends the conky process to the background freeing up the current process (your autostart.sh script) to finish doing what it's doing so you can move on to running openbox itself. with this in mind, it should be obvious why keeping conky in the foreground would cause problems.
also, replacing it with (sleep 1 && conky) & means... wait a second, when that's done successfully (&&) run conky, and put all of that () to the background. that way openbox comes up immediatly and only a second later you've got your panel and monitor.
all this after .xinitrc and before openbox

Downloads window is blank, shows file name but doesn't show up speed, percentage of download etc.

When I start downloading something, the Downloads window opens normally & also shows what is being downloaded. But, it doesn't show downloading percentage, downloading speed. (all things which usually show up below the name of file). But when minimized, I can see percentage.

Worked for me too. options->options->privacy->remember download history

My downloads-window doesn't function properly anymore, often it just stays blank, and the one in my taskbar doesn't turn green at all. Can you tell me how to fi

My downloads-window doesn't function properly anymore. It just stays white whenever I am downloading something. Only after downloading the same file once or twice more, it shows the progress of my download. The window in the taskbar -that should progressively turn green- doesn't show anything at all anymore. How can I fix this?

Note that there should only be a prefs.js file (Windows hides the .js file extension) and not a numbered prefs-##.js file. 
The presence of a numbered file indicates there there has been a problem with creating/updating prefs.js at some time and you can remove the numbered prefs-1.js file. 
If the main prefs.js doesn't have a current time stamp then you will have to delete that file as well and redo all customization settings in Options.

Adobe Download Assistant doesn't show me CS6 Design Standard as an option. Why?

Adobe Download Assistant doesn't show me CS6 Design Standard as an option. Why?

Hi Elliot, the link that I had no longer works. Apparently we are not alone in this. I got the link by going to Adobe Support and starting a chat with an Adobe rep. I believe that I went through a series of windows under CS6 Design Standard and clicked a button that said, "I still need help." I think that started the chat. Good luck!

HT4539 Why I can download from iCloud on 1 iPod but not the other. It says downloaded but doesn't show up in music...

I can download from iCloud to one iPod but not the other. It says downloaded but doesn't show up in music...

I'm not sure what you mean by the "music library" - are you looking in the Music app? Or the iTunes app (which is not the one to be looking in)?

Firefox 6 (& 7.0.1) download window is not showing on multiple monitors set up

Quicklook doesn't show PDF files

OSX 10.10.2
Quicklook does not show PDF files and Preview doesn't open PDF files. When I select file => open, all PDF files are grey and cannot be selected. In Finder I select a PDF file and press CMD-i. In the information window I select open with Preview, but nothing will changed. PDF files can only be opened with Adobe Acrobat. When I drop a PDF file from finder to safari, the PDF file will be visible in safari. When I select "open in preview" in safari, preview doesn't show the pdf file. I can see an error in the console "CoreSercviceUIAgent Error -60005 creating authorization". qlmanage -r and qlmanage -r chase doesn't help.

Skype window doesn't show up after logging in

After I log in to Skype I see the icon show up in my task bar but the window doesn't show up and clicking on the icon doesn't do anything.
And the times when the window DOES show up after signing in, it's not responding.
Is there a way to fix this? I have the latest version of Skype and am using Windows 8.1

Please, run the DirectX diagnostics tool (32-bit version).
Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post.

Serial entry window doesn't show up

Hi,
I have an application in TS 3.5 In fact i copied this application from a previous one. When i run a test, the serial input window doesn't show up. What is more when the main seq reaches end, it goes to cleanup, then postuut and then runs main sequence again immediately. But i want the operator to enter a serial number and initiaize the test. I never faced this problem before.
I hope there's s'one who can help me soon

What process model are you using? Has it been modified?
Does your sequence file include the PreUUT callback sequence in it? If so then you will not see the default serial number input dialog if you are using the Sequential Model and the TestUUTs entry point.
The serial dialog box is part of the PreUUT callback. If you open your process model and then open the PreUUT sequence in there you should see two steps (assuming no one has changed it). One displays the dialog and the other sets the serial number.
If your sequence file (not the process model) contains a green sequence called PreUUT then the one in the process model doesn't get called.
A good litmus test for this is- Open a blank sequence file. Run it using Test UUTs. If you see the serial input dialog then your model is good to go and the issue is with your sequence file. If you don't see that dialog then something has changed in your model.
Hope this helps,

Login Window doesn't show all account

Hi all folks,
I migrate an old OS X Leopard with some Accounts to OS X Yosemite but the Login Window doesn't show all Accounts.
And the Guest Account and the Other Account icon is outside the screen.
Any idea how to order the Accounts in the Login Window, it seems to be the Login Window can't handle more than five Accounts.
Thanks for any suggestion,
Lutz

Hi again,
Thanks for your reply.
I have done the unbind and performed the bind operation again, but its still happening. I have now put a second system in and its doing it on that one too.
I was wonding if there is some way of making sure that Samba is fully started before the login window appears.
Thanks,
Andrew McCall

Pasting file URLs in to download window doesn't work any more

I used to be able to paste file download URLs into the Download window and Safari would automatically start downloading the file.
This behavior seems to be broken now. Any way to restore the feature? Recommend any 3rd party apps that can do the same thing?

HI,
Go to ~/Library/Safari and move the Downloads.plist file to the Trash. Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference.

The Downloads window doesn't display information since the last Firefox update

I had to register a new help account just to get here.
Your broser has been fucking up like crazy since the last update. I have been having nothing but problems logging into multiple sites. Sites would log me out randomly, then I wouldn';t be able to log back in. I tried to make an account on a new site and had to try 11 damn times before it went through. and just now, when I tried to ask a troubleshooting question, my username and password wouldn't work. So I sent a password reset request. Nothing happened. I sent at least FIVE password reset requests. None of them has gone through. When I tried to enter a different username, thinking maybe that was the problem, as soon as I re-typed it and clicked anywhere outside the name space, it'd revert to the name that was previously there. What the hell!?
I haven't even gotten to the problem I originally wanted to contact you about!
The downloads window no longer works. I download a file, I click on 'Downloads' to see how long it'll be, I see nothing. Plain, blank white. And yes, I know some files download so quickly they're gone before I can open the window. I'm talking about large several-megabyte videos and disk images. No indication that they're downloading at all.
All this has happened since 19.0 installed. Do I have to disable updates from now on to keep the browser working properly!?

Alco, that was ''sort of'' helpful.
I changed the default value to 2, and that at least made a download appear in the download window. However, if I close the window and reopen it, it's blank again. And it won't show more than one download going at once. AND I can't pause or cancel downloads.
I really don't want to reset Firefox, but I suppose I will if I have to.

I use Firefox 3.6.3 on an Intel Mac. Download window doesn't open anymore

The download window used to open fine and I could check downloads. Suddenly it doesn't open. I found somebody with the same problem. http://www.help2go.com/Tutorials/Web_Browsers/The_Firefox_Download_Window_Has_Disappeared!.html They say delete the file called Downloads.rdf . In Windows Explorer, find your Firefox profiles folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxx\ (xxxxxxx is a string of random letters and numbers).
However, I can't find the file in mac. I found this file
downloads.sqlite in Application Support - Profiles but I don't want to delete it without knowing first if it's the right file. Can someone advise me?

Firefox Downloads (in classic or new download window) does not show progress or downloads

I noticed that when I download anyhitng that the download window (classic and new) windows do not show progress anymore, do not show files downloaded, nor give me anything to right-click and go to that folder, in which it was saved. I had it fixed for 1 day, until it started to lose the files the next day.
I only see the arrow turning green, with no result within the downloadswindow.
I had done the following:
1. In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter.
o The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise!, to continue to the about:config page.
2. In the Search field, type browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone.
3. Double-click on the browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone setting to change its value to false.
You can set the Boolean pref browser.download.useToolkitUI to true on the about:config page to restore the classic Download Manager window.
Yet this problem still continues.

'''Try the Firefox SafeMode''' to see how it works there. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode#w_safe-mode-window_2 Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Firefox SafeMode]
When in Safe Mode... 
* The status of plug-ins is not affected.
* Custom preferences are not affected.
* All extensions are disabled.
* The default theme is used, without a persona.
* userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored.
* The default toolbar layout is used.
* The JIT Javascript compiler is disabled.
* Hardware acceleration is disabled.
* You can open the Firefox 15.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. 
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes 
Or it might be caused by Hardware Acceleration.
''When you figure out what is causing that, please let us know. It might help other user's who have that problem.''
