Downloaded word documents not being identified as originating from another computer

Not sure if anyone else has noticed this or knows how to solve it. If you download a PDF file or Word file from the internet in Firefox 25.0, 26.0 or 27.0 (does not occur in 25.0.1) the file is not identified as originating from the internet and thus is not opened in protected view. If you download in 25.0.1 it works as intended. I also notice that files downloaded in 27.0 don’t get saved in the specified user location, but somehow defaults to C:\Users\owner\Downloads. Ideas anyone? A fresh install does not seem to change this behavior. Thanks in advance.

On the security point:
In the past, Firefox marked all downloads as originating from the internet so that it triggered Windows' attachment security feature. Users could disable that by setting the preference browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone to false.
Starting in Firefox 26, zone marking of downloads is done only for executables. Users can disable even that zone marking by setting the preference browser.download.saveZoneInformation to false in about:config.
This change was to improve performance; this mail thread has the background: https://mail.mozilla.org/pipermail/firefox-dev/2013-August/000848.html
However, there was pushback because some nonexecutable files can be unsafe, such as ZIP archives. A change has been implemented for Firefox 29 to behave more like other browsers: if the user has the Windows default settting to zone mark downloads, they will be zone marked. See: [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=952961 Bug 952961 – Firefox 26+ does not mark downloaded non-executables as coming from Internet zone].
I'm not sure whether that change will be uplifted to Firefox 28 (beta), but it seems as though there is enough time, so probably. However, I think there is pretty much zero chance that it could find its way into a point update for Firefox 27.

Status/Delivery Documents not being updated in C4C from ECC on PGI

Hi,
We are integrating SAP C4C with ERP via HCI. We have created a followup ‘Sales Order’ from an opportunity in C4C.
On creating the followup sales order this gets created in SAP ERP & we get back the sales order/inquiry number in C4C,but we do not get any status.
Also for the sales order when we try to deliver or do a ‘Post Goods Issue’ in ERP and we deliver goods the document flow in ERP shows’ ‘delivery number’ etc but these statuses are not being updated in C4C.
We have already configured the 'Communication Arrangements ' in C4C, with this scenario as below,
Opportunity with followup business Transaction in ERP ------ > Update opportunity from followup business transaction document.
In HCI we have configured the following template in eclipse :
ERP to Cod Opportunity Replicate
So,C4C still has just two entries one for inquiry & one for sales order with just the number and no other followup documents details/status ,say PGI --delivery document number etc.Can you kindly help.
Thanks
Indrasish

Hello Indrasish,
If I am not wrong you might be using the URL for Outbound Channel that is mentioned in Catalog (standard scenarios for HCI on HCI tenant). Mind that the Outbound URL for Pricing, Query Sales Quote and Query Sales Order Scenario should be picked up from Services for same which we can get from SICF on ECC. These URL structures are also maintained in 1402 standard document for ERP integration using HCI. Yet mentioning them below:
u
These URL paths are to be maintained in the Outbound Channel on artifacts related to Request Pricing, Query Sales Quote and Query Sales Order.
Let me know if this is what you were expecting and if this solves your issue.

I cannot download word documents. Error message says assocated helper application does not exist.

Tried downloading word document from email. error message Associated helper application does not exist

To open a document you must have installed an Android application for it. The file is downloaded but can be opened with Firefox, but with the specific app from Android.
Try installing a documents app and for sure it will work.

Working on word document and being able to save to external hard drive

working on word document and being able to save to external hard drive

Within Word, you have to point to the external drive using the "Save..." or "Save as..." dialog box. In this example, the drive named "ALLAN" in the sidebar is a USB thumb drive, so you'd choose it before proceeding:
If you originally saved the document to the hard drive, and then need to move it to an external without leaving Word, use the "Save As..." commend and you will be able to change the locations. Simply using the "Save" command always does a quick write to the original location without allowing you to select another destination. Word's "Save as..." function is the tool of choice.

I have rented a movie on my ipad. It did not download due to not being on wifi at the time. I know I completed the rental because my gift card balance went down $3.99 plus tax. How do I find where to download the movie?

I have rented a movie on my ipad. It did not download due to not being on wifi at the time. I know I completed the rental because my gift card balance went down $3.99 plus tax. How do I find where to download the movie?

But now I can't find the actual movie...I go to iTunes to purchases and view movies , to downloads and searched the title of the movie...I can see an icon of it and it is in a separate place from other purchases but it says downloaded in faded lettering. Where is it?
If you can't find the movie you downloaded on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch, check inside your Videos App

Reasons for billing documents not being created ?

I am trying to create a billing document from a delivery (VF01). When I enter document number and save, it says 'no billing documents genereated, see the log'. Where to see the log and what do you think could be the possible reasons for billing document not being created ?
Thanks in advance,
Krishen

Hi,
In VL02 transaction, Its the 2nd button on the toolbar With an `!` mark on the icon along with triangle. CLick that button. It will display the errors bcz of which delivery is not created.
In VL01, goto EDIT-> LOG.
The explanation of errors is usually pretty detailed.
Best regards,

How can i view a downloaded word document in pages?

how can i view a downloaded word document in pages? i tried to download a file, which worked, but i can't view it since i don't have word office

Not sure what you are saying but Pages just opens Word documents, drag the Word document onto Pages' icon.
Or open the Word document from the Open dialog.
If you are talking about testing a Word document after you have exported it from Pages then you will need of course to have Word to open it but there are free clones of Word as well such as LibreOffice, Openoffice and Neoffice that will do that as well.

I am getting the following error during the play of a rented movie from my MacBook that i am trying to watch on AppleTV Could not play the rental “A Thousand Words” because it is authorized to play on another computer or device." any ideas?

Rentals can only play on one device/computer at a time. Have you tried to play on the computer and still have that window open?
Have you transferred the rental to iPod/iPhone or iPad to watch?
If it won't play anywhere contact iTunes support at:

If I download photos to icloud, can I delete them from my computer without deleting them from icloud?

If I download photos to icloud,
Which MacOS X version do you use?
How are you planning to store photos in iCloud? There are many ways to use iCloud with photos, but none will save space on your Mac:
iCloud Drive: Any photo you store on iCloud Drive will also have a shadow copy on your Mac, so you cannot save space, see: iCloud Drive FAQ
My Photo Stream: Photos you upload to My Photo Stream from your Mac, are also stored on your Mac. And My Photo Stream is only a temporary storage for a month. You cannot keep the photos permanently in My Photo Stream, see: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
iCloud Photo Sharing: Shared Photo albums are also stored locally, and reduce the resolution of the photos: seeiCloud: iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ
iCloud Photo Library (Beta): This is not yet available on a mac, but will be available, when the new Photos.app will be released. Right now you can use it from mobile iOS8 devices, iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ.Photos you store in iCloud from mobile devices can be accessed on your mac using the icloud web portal. You can however upload to iCloud Photo Library Beta from your mac using the Photos.app (Beta) on web interface at https://www.icloud.com

Don't expect any wonders. If you use it heavily with multiple applications running at the same time, nobody can help you. It's physics: more usage => higher energy consumption.
Here you can find some tips to reduce the battery consumption. My tip: close applications if you don't need them right now and reduce screen brightness.
