Empty browser window

1. An empty browser window appears upon startup.  I can't figure out how to eliminate this problem. 
 2.  The old Verizon buttons still appear on the desktop.  If I sign in with these I get the old home page??
Is anyone one else experiencing similar problems?  Otherwise, FIOS is working well.

Actually none of that would be related to the service at all.  The icons that are installed on your desktop simply are bookmarks to different Verizon pages.  I actually removed all of that to clean up my desktop.  Your issue could be due to the fact that they have changed around some webpages or where they direct people, but they wouldn't have the ability to change a saved bookmark on your desktop.
Regarding the window popping up, I honestly have no idea why that would be happening -- do you notice another program appearing with it?  Does that empty window vanish after some time?  That would definitely throw up a red flag for me if my computer started doing that.  I am not fond of programs running when I don't expect them to.

    I am not sure what your problem is, can you give more details.
    One possibility is you may be in full screen mode, for details on fixing that see the [[menu bar is missing]] article.
    If you are missing various toolbar items, see the [[back and forward or other toolbar items are missing]] article.

  • Empty browser window  in FCP

    I have been archiving for the last few weeks in FCP, nothing unusual and then just now I went to "Open new project" and everything opened apart from the browser window which is now empty of all data apart from a little sequence icon sitting on the right and nothing else. Everything else is working and it is capturing normally. I did all the usual thing relaunch and restart the Mac and it remains the same. The previous project is unnaffected and opens normally. I have never had a problem like this in FCP over the last 3 years and I think I am smelling a bug, or maybe not. Any ideas?

    I may be misunderstanding you here but, when you start a new project 9not open new project) what you describe is supposed to happen. If you strat a new project there is no data until you import it.

  • Spry Data does not display in browser window.

    Using CS4 I followed "Building a photo album with the Spry framework" by Don Booth. 
    I can run gallery.html  in Dreamweaver CS4 “Live View” and it works, but does not work in a browser. Does not work in “Preview in browser” from Dreamweaver nor IE8 nor Firefox.  The file structure online is same as in working site. 
    I briefly see the design screen then just an empty browser window with no images.
    I'm trying to run this from another index.html but can't get it to work even running gallery.html.
    I appreciate any help you can offer.  Please see attached for online files and screen prints.

  • How to have web page open in same browser window after redirect in Flash video placed in Dreamweaver?

    Hello,
    Would be grateful if anyone can help me.
    website: www.Paris-Pet.com
    Currently, a flash video plays on the index page. The following action is placed in the last frame of the video in Flash:
    navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.paris-pet.com/home.html"));
    This is working as intended with one exception: Instead of directing to the home page from the index page when the video is completed, it opens up the home page in a second browser window, leaving the empty browser window of the flash movie. This is not the seamless design I was hoping for, and I've also been told on some computers, blocking pop up windows is preventing them from smoothly transitioning to the rest of the web site.
    I would like the redirect to open the home page in the same browser window as the movie in the index page played.
    Please help. Print designer in over her head.
    JM

    Brilliant, Jon. Thank you so much. For those of you who stumble on this, I did have a tiny bit of trouble when I edited the actionscript; the video didn't play as expected. After trial and error, this is the code that worked both in playing the video and opening up in the same browser window:
    navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.paris-pet.com/home.html"),"_self");
    The difference seems to be this:  ")     before the comma prior to "_self");
    Again, Jon -- thanks!

  • Calling a new Browser Window from Web Dynpro Application - Empty Context

    Hello,
    I want to open a view in a new browser window, and followed the same way which is described in this thread:
    Open view in new browser window
    My first try was creating two applications, which refer to the same Component Controller. The opening of a new browser window is triggered by an action, which is called in the other application. As both applications have the same Component Controller, I thought, the context content has to be the same, but actually the context attributes are empty after opening of the new window.
    In my second try I created two applications with two different Component Controllers, mapped via embedded Interface Controller. The effect is the same - I have no context content in the view.
    Please, can anybody help me?
    Thank you in advance.
    Ilona Seifert

    I done something like this:
    [code]
    try {
    strURL =
         WDURLGenerator.getApplicationURL(
                        "$<b>PROJECT_PATH</b>$/$<b>PROJECT_NAME</b>$",
                                            "$<b>APPLIC_NAME</b>$");
    } catch (WDURLException e) {
          // TODO Auto-generated catch block
          e.printStackTrace();
    strURL += "?par1=";
    strURL +=  var1;
    strURL += "&par2=";
    strURL +=  var2;
    strURL += "&par3=";
    strURL +=  var3;

    and after i retrieve them:
    [code]
    Var1Value= WDWebContextAdapter.getWebContextAdapter().getRequestParameter("var1");

  • Only a grey empty box in browser window

    I only get a grey empty box in my browser windows, when I start the HTML-pages with the java applet "HelloWorldApplet" from the "my first cup of java" tutorial from the java-sun pages.
    What can I do?
    Other java applets work fine.
    I have activated Java 2.
    And the 4 programms from the java web start and other applets work fine.
    It is only the one, that I compiled.

    The Sun Java Console, that I can start from my Windows-browser does not output anything.
    Looks like I got stuck here, right at the beginning.

  • Opening a new browser window always puts a flv-file (0bytes of a youtube vid viewed earlier) on desktop. Firefox 18.02

    Opening a new browser window always puts a flv-file (0bytes of a youtube vid viewed earlier) on desktop. Firefox 18.02
    viewed the yuotube vid yesterday. deleted all the flv-files on the desktop.
    same thing today, a new window always puts the same empty file from yesterday.
    any suggestions?

    You can check the home page setting:
    *Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • PDF will not display in an IE browser window

    I have the following setup:
    Windows Vista Business w/ SP2
    Internet Explorer 8 (8.0.6001.18813)
    Adobe Reader 9 (9.1.3)
    When accessing a PDF document using IE8, the PDF will not display in an IE browser window.  Instead, the PDF opens in a new Adobe Reader window.
    When accessing the same PDF in Firefox or Chrome, the PDF appears in the browser window.
    I have tried repairing Adobe Reader using the Help>Repair Adobe Reader Installation menu, both by running Adobe Reader as an admin and not.  I have confirmed that Adobe Reader "Internet" preference "Display PDF in Browser" option is enabled (checked).  I have enabled/disabled this preference without affect.  The PDF document is always opened in it's own Adobe Reader window.
    I have tested this using different PDF documents served up by different servers.  The result is the same.  The PDF document is always opened in it's own Adobe Reader window.
    How can I get the PDF to open in an IE8 browser window?
    I look forward to any suggestions offered.

    Hi Carolyn,
    I am experiencing the same symptoms as gaijindragonslayer described above, and my Internet Plug-ins folder is empty. I would like to have Preview as my default pdf reader, but am unable to view a pdf in Safari at all right now -- I have to download the pdf and then open it with Preview separately in order to view it.
    What else might cause this?
    Thanks for your help.

  • IE Browser not able to display a PDF file within the Browser window ...

    Hello acrobat experts!
    I'm now writing a plugin for the acrobat. According to my customer requirements, the pdf file is expected to be displayed within the MS IE
    browser widows. It worked within adobe Reader and Acrobat 7.0.x.
    Now I wanted to test my plugin against version adobe Reader and Acrobat
    8.0, 8.1.0, 8.1.1. Unfortunately, I got a strange behavior: pdf files are
    being diplayed in seperate windows, i.e. the IE browser window is empty
    and white blanked!
    - (Un)check "Display PDF in browser" option and close the window
    didn't help!
    - I tried also to upgrade gradually and after each upgrade checked if the
    problem persists --> I had the same behavoir after each update:
    7.0.5 -> 8.0; 8.0 --> 8.1.0; 8.1.0 --> 8.1.1
    - In some google - forums I found out that the following DLL's may be
    missing:
    Acropdf.dll, Acroiehelper.dll,Gbdetect.dll and Pdfshell.dll
    i got these dll's, put them into the activeX directory, but still I
    have the same problem
    You guys, do you have useful links / tips for me? Is this a known bug
    in the acrobat / Reader 8.0, 8.1.0, 8.1.1?
    By the it works fine within firefox!
    Further info about user SW versions:
    IE browser version 6.0 SP2, Windows XP SP2
    Thanks a lot in advance for your help
    Caleb

    thanks for the quick feedback-
    no, because my customer is using the IE 6. According to the system
    requirements all these Acrobat/Reader versions should also run
    properly under IE 6 http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3796
    I have a look in IE >> manage- add-ons and got the following Add-ons
    for adobe
    - Adobe PDF
    - Adobe PDF Conversion Tool helper
    both are enabled!
    Do I need more?
    can u pls check, if u have the following ddl's in the adobe home dir:
    Acropdf.dll, Acroiehelper.dll,Gbdetect.dll and Pdfshell.dll
    Thanks

  • New Browser Window from Hyperlinks on PDF created in In Design

    I am creating PDF documents using In Design CS3.  The PDFs have hyperlinks to other PDFs as well as hyperlinks to webpages. The finalized PDF is being accessed through our website as a link on the webpage. The PDF is opening in a new browser window/tab and the hyperlinks are working great.  My problem is this: How do I get it so that the hyperlinks on the PDF open to a new browser window as well.  Currently, when I click a link, it changes the current browser window that the PDF is in.  I want to set this so that anyone, from any computer will have it so that the link opens a new window/tab.

    In Adobe Acrobat (the application, not the .pdf reader) use the Link Tool to edit the hyperlinked text object. Remove the “Open a web link” action assigned by default to handle the hyperlinked text when clicked. Assign a new action to the linked text that will open the hyperlink in a new window.
    Note: The links have to be established each time you create a PDF – they do not carry over from In Design or any other software.
    1.     Access the Link tool (Tools > Advanced Editing > Link Tool)
    2.     Right click on the hyperlinked text and select Properties
    3.     In the Link Properties dialog box click on the Actions tab
    4.     In the middle of the Actions panel in the Actions section click on the Open a web link action listed there to select it.
    5.     Click the Delete button located just below that section in the lower right corner. This removes the action from the list and the Actions section should now be empty.
    6.     In the Add an Action section right above the Actions section click on the Select Action drop down menu and select the Run a JavaScript action from the list.
    7.     Click the Add… button.
    8.     In the JavaScript Editor that opens up, click your cursor in the Create and Edit JavaScripts area, like you would in a word processor to begin typing, and type the following line:
    app.launchURL("http://www.MySampleURL.com/someFolder/somePage.html", true);
    9.     Change the hyperlink text between the quotation marks to your desired URL.
    Ex: app.launchURL("http://www.cnn.com", true);
    Caution:
    1.     The code is case sensitive so make sure you typed app.launchURL NOT app.launchurl or some other case combination.
    2.     Make sure that you have quotation marks around your hyperlink URL.
    3.     Make sure there is a semicolon at the end of the line of code you just typed.
    4.     Make sure that the quotation marks are straight up and down – not on an angle.
    10. Click OK to close the JavaScript Editor dialog box.
    11. Click OK to close the Link Properties dialog box.
    12. Save the .pdf and test your .pdf hyperlink by opening the .pdf document in a browser, click the link and check to see that it opens in a new browser window.

  • (Problem) Grey empty Word window shows up while opening .doc or .docx files with virtual Internet Explorer 9

    Hi,
    First i'll explain what i did.
    I've Thinapped Office 2010 Professional Plus SP2 with an Internet Explorer entry point. (Thinapp version 4.7.3)
    Made some changes in the registry so .doc and .docx files will open in the virtual IE browser.
    Here are my changes made to the registry:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Word.Document.8]
    "BrowserFlags"=dword:80000024
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Word.RTF.8]
    "BrowserFlags"=dword:80000024
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Word.Document.12]
    "BrowserFlags"=dword:80000024
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Word.DocumentMacroEnabled.12]
    "BrowserFlags"=dword:80000024
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\AttachmentExecute\{0002DF01-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}]
    "Word.Document.12"=hex(0):
    "Word.Document.8"=hex(0):
    Now i have this problem:
    When opening a .doc or .docx file in the browser a ' download bar' appears.
    My document opens in the browser as expected but, at the same time an empty grey Word window appears at the background.
    The grey window shows not all the time when opening a .docx or .doc file , this is whats so strange about it.
    Sometimes when i open the .doc or .docx file it opens without the grey empty word window. It seems like it's happening randomly.
    I also tested it out with .xlsx files (Excel) but this go's all well.
    Before i forget, this all runs on a Windows 7 Enterprise environment.
    Does anyone know what causes my problem, or can anyone help me?
    Kind regards,
    Martijn

  • I have problems with gameplay(zuma blitz and bejeweled blitz)in the firefox browser window. the game is latent and play is very jerky..can u please help. i played them in the IE8 browser with no problem

    i've tried playing zuma blitz and bejeweled blitz in the firefox browser window and the play is very jerky and slow.

    Just had the same thing happen AGAIN. Suddenly - a blank iPlayer Desktop which failed to download new programmes. All previous programmes were still in the repository folder. This time the sequence I outlined previously didn't work.
    What eventually got things working this time was to reinstall Adobe Air as part of the BBC iPlayer Desktop installation process - and not separately.
    So:
    a) Move iPlayer to trash.
    b) Find and delete the following folder: Users/Yourname/Library/Preferences/BBCiPlayerDesktop.61DB7A798358575D6A969CCD73DDBBD 723A6DA9D.1
    c) Find and delete the following folder:
    Users/Yourname/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AIR/ELS/BBCiPlayerDesktop.61DB7A798358575D6A969CCD73DDB BD723A6DA9D.1
    d) Find and delete the following folder:
    Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository/cache
    e) Find and run: Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller
    f) Empty the Trash. I found that bits and pieces of BBC iPlayer were still running despite having been quit and dumped in the trash - and so it wouldn't allow me to complete this part. Restarted the computer, then empty the trash.
    g) Find the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository and rename it repository2
    h) Reinstall iPlayer. It will tell you that you have no programmes to view. Quit the programme.
    i) Find and delete the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository
    j) Find the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository2 and rename it to repository.
    k) Relaunch iPlayer
    It would be terribly nice if the BBC or Adobe stopped buggering about with this . . .

    If you have tabs on top and no menu then the tabs are in a "Windows" area so there is no space to right. If you put tabs back to the bottom you will have most of your old behavior but because of the changes to tabs on top most of the tab context menu stuff all of the context menu part was lost except the customize toolbar stuff, double-clicking on an empty spot was restored, and eventually during the FF 4 beta most of the tab extensions Firefox messed up eventually worked again except in the area to the right of the tabs.
    The Windows part of that double-click has to maximize or restore to normal,
    and you have to be able to drag the window by it;'s title bar.
    You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and '''Firefox 5.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

  • Can Firefox themes be expanded to fill more of the browser window?

    I love the themes for the firefox browser window. The only complaint I have is that I would like the theme to cover more of the browser window at the top. Lots of the theme pic is covered up by the tools at the top. It would be nice to be able to see more of the theme picture in the near future.

    Add extra empty toolbars if you want to see more of the persona.<br />
    You can create extra toolbars to get extra space via View > Toolbars > Customize<br />
    You have to put something on a toolbar (drag a Space item onto it) before closing the Customize window because empty toolbars are automatically removed.<br />
