Explorer doesn't refresh when moving/deleting

Hello,
I recently started using W8 and at the moment when i change the name of a file or add a new file to a folder i have to manually refresh the folder in order to view the change. I have read about similar problems in W7 but the solutions dont seem to work.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I found a fix for my situation that had identical symptoms as yours. After tons of Googling and trying numerous suggestions and nearly resorting to a reinstall, I found my problem was SIMPLE! I had noticed that there were some times when I could change a
file/folder and it responded instantly, so I started to observe what was unique. I noticed if I browsed to folders in Windows File Explorer under "This PC", any changes/refreshes worked fine, but if I browsed to the same folders by going into
any folders pinned under "Favorites", they needed to be manually refreshed or revisited. It turns out the problem was the links in Favorites were broken. I copied my user profile in the past during the install of Windows 8 and so some of these links were referencing
the old "Start In" path on the shortcuts. SOLUTION FOR ME: Delete any custom links in Favorites, then browse to the folder in This PC and drag it back to Favorites to create a new, correct link. Works like magic now.

  • Disk Utility doesn't refresh when inserting new DVDs

    I'm in the process of copying a few DVDs by making an image of them first and then burning the image onto a blank DVD through Disk Utility.
    After I'm done with one and insert a new DVD to copy, Disk Utility doesn't refresh to show me the new disk is in the drive. Is it normal?
    If it is, is there something I can press so that Disk Utility manually refresh its listing of drives?
    I find that quitting and restarting Disk Utility just to make a new image is so inefficient.

    I am suddenly having the same problem. When I insert a blank disc either cd or dvd it does not show up in the left column in disc utility. I have tried closing and then relaunching disc utility but nothing. The disc shows up on my desk top but not in disc utility. I fear this is a Snow Leopard problem. Toast has no problem recognizing the disc and burning to it.

  • Eigrp routes doesn't refresh when neighbor down

    hi guys, need some tips for troubleshooting an ongoing issue, but can't do the changes anymore untill next call and yes the issue is still ongoing.
                           WAN1 <--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> WAN2
                               |                                                                                                                                       |  
                       metro ethernet ME-3600X-A  <----> ME-3600X-B  <----->  ME-3600X-C<----> c3560v2
    I have 3 metro ethernet switches and a c3560v2 switch connected as above. The WAN1 redistributes all routes to ME-3600X-A's eigrp and WAN2 redistributes all routes to c3560v2 's eigrp and these two propagates all their eigrp routes to ME-3600X-B and ME-3600X-C  which are in the same eigrp AS. And all link/connections are point-to-point.
    Now, when the link between ME-3600X-B  <----> ME-3600X-C is physically disconnected, the ME-3600X-C's eigrp still points the route(s) to the ME-3600X-B's p2p ip as its next-hop - which is down(neighborship between them goes down, but still the routes doesn't refresh/rebuild). However, switch c3560v2 has route to the same network learnt from WAN2.
    Wonder why, need inputs please? Thanks.

    You shouldn't reference the CrystalReportViewer in the Page_Load handler, since there's issues with serialization of the report source:
    http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/BusinessObjectsXIR2SP2/
    en/en/CrystalReports_dotNET_SDK/crsdk_net_doc/doc/
    crsdk_net_doc/html/
    crconsdkfundamentalspersistencepageloadeventhandler.htm
    In fact, you should save the report source in session, and bind it to the viewer on post-back.  Sample code can be found here:

  • Flex app doesn't work when moved from original location

    I'm trying to make an image gallery in flex. It works when I run it in Flex Builder perfectly fine. The html and swf files from the bin-debug folder work perfectly fine when opened in any browser also, but ONLY when those files and all related files are opened from the default location that the application was built in. When I export a build to a different folder, the swf loads but none of the information from the xml file displays. I tried setting all of the paths of the reference files (namely the xml) in the flex app to the exact absolute location on the server, and it still didn't work when I uploaded it to the server.
    I've tried several approaches starting from scratch and they have all come up with the same issue. I'm working with an educational license for Flex Builder, I'm not sure if they jip you on those and ruin the compiled swf.
    Please help! I'm losing my mind over this.I think it has to do with something else besides the code since it works fine when I hit "Run", but if anyone thinks it will help to post the code let me know.

    when you build an application using one of the wizards (like coldfusion flex application wizard) it hard codes
    paths to cold fusion CFC's, and sometimes gets it wrong.
    If your application references cfc's (or other remote objects) then it may be necessary to adjust the flex code
    when moving the code into a different base folder.
    For example in my own application, the url is http://localhost/crm_dev_flex and the built application gets put into
    c:\inetpub\wwwroot\crm_dev_flex\bin-debug
    References in the code to components found in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\crm_dev_flex\bin-debug\components\cfgenerated
    (in the flex code these looks like crm_dev_flex.bin-debug.components.cfgenerated.<mycomponent> )
    These need to change when you move the code to somewhere else.
    Also, if you are using wizard generated cfc's then these also contain similar references that need to be changed.
    IHTH.
    Cheers

  • Link to Word document doesn't refresh when running from Infoview

    I have a report that contains an OLE Object link to a Word Document.  If I modify the document and schedule the report through Infoview, it doesn't pick up the change.  If I refresh the report through Crystal Reports it does pick up the changes.  Any suggestions on how I can get the Infoview scheduled report to pick up the changes?
    Thanks,
    Tony

    Hello Tony and Co-Experts,
    I am facing exactly the problem Tony had:
    - Embedded a Word document as linked OLE object into a crystal report and stored it to Enterprise repository.
    - When opening the report with CR Developer from my workstation, changes in the .doc file are reflected, the report is updated
    - However when displaying and refreshing the report on the BO Server via InfoView changes aren't reflected.
    The OLE link is set to update automatically (under menu edit -> links)
    I tried to store the report to the enterprise repository with and without data. Yet no difference and no update in either case.
    Neither scheduling nor opening and refreshing the report in InfoView helps.
    So what am I doing wrong?
    - On our BO server we have not installed Crystal Reports Developer. Is this a prerequisite for the OLE links to update?
    - And Tony wrote that he could resolve this by changing the logged on user with CR Job Server. Where and how would I change this user?
    - Any other suggestions?
    Many thanks in advance!

  • Exchange Mail Offline Problem when moving/deleting mails

    Hi there,
    I am using the Apple Mail Program to connect to my corporate Microsoft Exchange Server. This work perfectly well (also with the calendar, tasks, etc.)
    Mail also work s well while I am online.
    When I work offline (I often travel in planes in trains) I can write emails, respond to mails and those will be synchronized without any problem when I am back online.
    But the strange thins is that Mail sets back all changes in my inbox without any recognizable trigger. Meaning, I am moving emails from the inbox folder to other folders and/or deleting emails from my inbox. After switching from the inbox to another folder, or simply shortly to another program and then coming back, ALL moved and deleted emails show up again in the inbox. This is strange, because I am offline the whole time - thus the expanation that the server synch has changed everything back cannot be. At the same time, written emails stay in the outbox folder and remain there until I go online again.
    I asked an apple employee at Genious Bar but he could help me. Another friend of me who uses another corporat Exchange Server experiences the same  problem. Can anyone help?

    One thing that may help is to go to Mail Preferences, Accounts, and in your account under the Advanced tab select the check box for "Prompt me to skip messages over xxx kB" (where you indicate how many kB). This can reduce the download times by factors of 2 to 4 or more, depending on the size of the attachments.
    I think the more specific control you are looking for that is analogous to what you can do on the iPhone and iPad might not be available on the computer versions of Mail.
    Edit added: I just noticed that the above option is only available for POP accounts, but not for Exchange (IMAP) accounts, so unfortunately it may not apply to your account.

  • Popup status doesn't disappear when moving focus within framesets

    I developed and manage a website that makes extensive use of frames. When I click on a link in one frame that opens a page in an adjacent frame moves focus there. The problem is that the the popup status that appeared in the origin frame displaying the link to the just-opened window doesn't then disappear, but remains visible even though that frame is no longer active. This would appear to be a bug. Can it either be fixed or a work-around suggested? Please don't comment on frames being obsolete. Thanks

    Adding on to original query. In fact this behavior only occurs when transferring to a frame containing a data entry form. Then, if I move the cursor over any other hyperlink, say in the side favorites menu, the popup disappears. Quite annoying, particularly since I previously used the status bar to inform users of valid / invalid input quantities on these forms.

  • JTree doesn't refresh when adding node in a node

    Hello,
    I have a strange problem
    I have a JTree, with a root, and two nodes, which have nodes...
    I have one node that is expanded, and the other is collapsed.
    I made a method that enables me to add a sub node to the node selected by the mouse.
    If I select the collapsed node and use my "add" method, and then expand the node, the node is here. No problem.
    If I do the same thing on the expanded node, the tree doesn't seem to be willing to refresh. I can use some refresh(), expandPath()...and other methods to make it refreshed, but it doesn't care... is there some particular method that I must use, a listener that I must add to the tree....?
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks 4 help

    You need to call nodeStructureChanged(parentNode) on the model.

  • RH9 crash and files deleted when moving/deleting content in Project Manager pod

    Hello,
    I've had an ongoing issue, across RH 8 and 9, with trying to manage my content using the Project Manager pod. The issue has occurred w/ two basic processes: creating new folder structures in PM and then moving files from one folder to another; deleting files from the project entirely.
    The outcome is that RH crashes w/ a generic "RoboHelp has encountered a problem" error message, and one or more topics are deleted from the project entirely. If the topic is in the TOC, the placeholder is still there, but it's not connected to any topic.
    Has anyone else encountered this issue? Is this a known bug and/or is there a suggested fix?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Pre: Weird cycle of email refreshes when swipe deleting many emails during a sync

    I keep seeing this obviously buggy behavior. Has anyone else run into this?
    In the Pre email application, I open up an email folder (not my Inbox, but a folder I've marked as a favorite) that gets about a hundred new messages per day. As soon as I do the new messages start flooding in as they are downloaded. During this I start swiping them away to delete the ones I know I don't care about from the subject.
    After doing this a number of times in a single session (usually around 5), the email application gets into this weird cycle as I watch it where:
    1) Emails that were already downloaded start disappearing from the bottom of the list
    2) Then all of the emails in that folder disappear from the scree
    3) All of the emails start re-appearing like they're being re-downloaded, with just the subject line, INCLUDING messages that I already swipe-deleted
    4) Repeat over and over, sometimes up to 15 minutes depending on how many emails are in the folder and how many I deleted before it started going crazy
    This whole time the email sync spinner is going and the number within it is continuously changing.
    I may have seen this on GMail sync, but most notably it happens to me with my Exchange 2010 mail account. Note: I have my mail account set to download all mails within the last two weeks, if that matters.
    Needless to say, this makes my Pre pretty much useless to me to go through any serious amount of discussion list email. Ideas/thoughts? Is there an official way to report a bug on this if it's not known?

    That's what I've started doing, but that's not a very good solution for a couple reasons:
    1) That solution is basically akin to just not using the Pre for managing email
    2) This weird cycle thing happens to me even if I don't start deleting items on large folders too
    This definitely seems like a bug that should be fixed by Palm.

  • I have a checkbox on my page, but it doesn't refresh when I refresh my page after I changed it's status.

    1.I open a webpage which has a checkbox without checked
    2.I clicked this checkbox, so it's checked
    3.Then I refresh this page, the checkbox still checked rather than unchecked;

    You need to do a hard refresh and bypass the cache to reset such form data.

  • How to stop master elements from appearing to refresh when visiting subsequent pages?

    I have set a logo and navigation bar on the master page, which are inherited by all the pages and sub-pages linked to it. Yet the logo and navigation bar appear to refresh when moving from page to page. I find this extremely annoying. I thought maybe this visual annoyance only occurred within the Muse app in Preview mode -- or only the first time a page was loaded. So, with Safari's cache empty, I went to the live site of the beginning tutorial: katiesbakerycafe.com and found that the logo-navigation bar on the secondary pages (which differed from the Welcome page) refreshed when visiting one of the secondary pages -- Menu, Gallery, Blog, Contact -- for the first time. But the logo-navigation bar did not appear to refresh when clicking back and forth among those pages after the first visit. So, only half-bad, but still annoying.
    Is there a way to stop this visual annoyance on a site created in Muse?
    In the past, I would have set up the navigation on the periphery of my webpage and used a large frame containing all the pages that used the same navigation bar.
    Thanks.

    Hi Pamela,
    The html that is generated for the master page is repeated for every page the master is applied to. Thus, it refreshes the page on every fresh load, after which browser caches the data to prevent reloading some static content.
    What you are referring to is not possible in Muse at this stage. I will recommend that you post this as idea to our ideas section, Ideas for features in Adobe Muse

  • When I delete emails , they just get deleted and do not get moved to trash

    When I delete an email , it just gets deleted and does not get moved to trash. Its pretty frustrating as I regularly hit the delete by mistake and I lose the email because it just does not get moved to trash .I have checked the preference to find some setting that might cause this ( like delete trash immediately) in mail preferences to no avail. I also have ran file system check and cleaned and repaired the Mac-HD in hope of solving the problem to no avail. This has been happening only for a few days. The funny thing is , I also noticed that a folder I was trying to copy from My main HD to a secondary one ( not in mail but just on the computer), suddenly disappeared and I could not locate it . Am I going crazy? Someone please help.

    Hi hadjibaba. You’re welcome.
    Report the names of the files and folders present at the first level of the ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/ account folder in the Finder.
    In order to post the exact file names and avoid typing mistakes, proceed as follows. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/. With that folder open, if you’re looking at it in View > as List mode, first collapse any expanded folders so that the Finder only shows the files and folders at the first level. Now, do Edit > Select All (⌘A), then Edit > Copy (⌘C), and paste it in your reply to this post.
    BTW, if you’re running Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther), as your profile indicates, it would have been more appropriate to discuss this in the Mail & Address Book - Mac OS X 10.3 & earlier forum. If the discussion applies to both Mail 1.x and Mail 2.x, it doesn’t really matter, but it’s difficult to know that in advance.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.
