All of a sudden I can no longer open a new tab using either the icon on the tab bar, the keyboard short cut or the File menu option. I can open a new tab ONLY by clicking on a bookmark or link.

In the file menu why can't i open 'close', 'print', 'properties'?

in the file menu why can't i open 'close', 'print' and properties'?

I have a document open. I clic print, then i select 'more options' to print a partiel view (or 'active view') of the document. But i want to have it 100%. When i choose the size of the document, if i select 'adjust' the scale is 73%. If a select 'real size' then i have shades at both end so i don't have the entire page. If i choose 'reduce pages to ...' i get a 73% scale and if i select personnalized scale (100%) there is still shades at both end. So what do i change to get a 100% active view? On the late version i never had that problem. Thank you.

In Firefox 8 on Mac OS 10.7.2, the file menu doesn't list "Import"

I just installed Firefox 8 on my Mac that is running OS 10.7.2. When I went to the File menu to import my bookmarks from Safari, the "Import" option was not there.

You can find the Import menu entry in the Bookmarks Manager (Library)

Photoshop CS3 doesn't respond when opening a file (jpg or .psd)

I have been using CS3 since it first came out with no trouble at all. I am running OS 10.4.11. Then a couple days ago, when I would open a file, such as a jpg, the color wheel just spins and spins. When I check the finder, it says that Photoshop is not responding, so I Force Quit, restart computer, etc.
After reading the forums, here is what I have done so far, with no luck:
Made sure that I have the most current version of Photoshop CS3.
Relaunched the program - resetting the preferences.
Set the default printer to "PDF."
Moved and renamed the Plug-Ins folder.
I have also uninstalled the program and then reinstalled it. That fixed things for a day or so, but now I am back where I started. I have not made any changes to my computer. I have not downloaded anything new. The only thing I can figure, is that the first time it happened, I was opening a jpg of an image off a CD from a photographer. I had already opened several images from this CD with no problem. I thought that maybe that particular image was corrupt, but once I reinstalled, I was able to open that image with no problem.
Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to offer to me!

Also, out of curiosity, I wanted to see if it would open a new file created in Photoshop (since it launches fine and will open a new document). I tried this and got the spinning color wheel, but the file did save with a preview, but when I tried to open that file --- spinning wheel again.
Then, I thought I would see if I could place a jpg in that new file. It did that fine, but when I tried to save the .psd file, I got the spinning color wheel again.
Thanks!

Flash menu doesn't work after opening an external link.

Hi,
I have this problem - I made a simple website with a flash menu, that opens internal links in an iframe. However, I have a few other (not included in the menu) external links, which open in the same iframe. And after I click on one of them and it loads in the iframe, the buttons on the menu stop working. I'm beginning to think it has something to do with the internet explorer, since it works on some computers. But I'm not sure... not very good at this.
I've been searching for an answer here and there, but still haven't found anything. Please, help.
Thank you!

Here it is: http://kiss4eto.is.com/. Click on the Me button, for example. It should work. Then click on the "Addicted to Facebook" link on the right and after that try the Me button again. It doesn't work any more. At least on my computer.
Thanks, again.

Finder Menu doesn't respond on 10.3.9

As usual, I attempted to use the Finder Menu to Restart. The Finder doesn't react (all Menu function seems dead, other Finder function are OK.0
I just update iTunes 7.0.2 and iPhoto 6.0.5. I don't know if this trouble is connected to those Update but it appear after.
- I have repair the permission,
- <kill> the Finder with Activity monitor,
- move on desktop <com.apple.finder.plist> from Preference,
None of those try make Finder Menu respond.
What might be up ?

Hi cldjr!
To remedy that Repair Permissions error, follow the instructions here Disk Utility Has "Lost Connection" With "Disk Management Tool", authored by Mac Fool.
Once you have done that, proceed to Repair Permissions again. Rerun it until the only errors reported are listed in this article Spurious Permissions Errors Using: 10.3.x
It isn't necessary to run Verify, just run Repair.
Good Luck!

IPhoto 8.1.2 doesn't respond after opening from the dock

i am running 10.6.7 on an imac purchased last fall. the iphoto has been a pain most of that time. it will open if i am importing photos from a digital camera (where inserting the memory card into the computer prompts iPhoto to open) but will never work when opened from the dock. the iphoto screen pops up and then I get the spinning wheel icon, and when I open the "force quit applications" utility, it tells me iPhoto is not responding and I have to force quit. are there any other answers out there besides "repair disk permissions"? that has not worked. thanks!

Another test:
Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

Firefox doesn't respond when opening a new tab until the page loads completely

When I open a page in a new tab, Firefox freezes until the new page loads completely. I can't switch tabs or do anything. It then works normally. Older versions of Firefox did not have this problem; it only started after I updated a few months ago. What can be done about this problem?
Thanks.

Please check for the problem in [[safe mode|safe mode]].. does it work there?

Firefox doesn't open a link van I click on a link is thunderbird, its say that firefox is active but doesn't respond, sometimes even after it has closed

When I got in an email a link and I click on it, firefox openes the first time, but when I click on the next link I get the message that firefox is active but doesn't respond.
Opening by clicking on *.htm(l) files works fine even multiple.

I suggest you to upgrade your browser to Firefox 7 and check:

There are some keyboard commands (shortcuts) you can use instead of having to go to the Apple menu -
Control-Eject          This brings up the Restart-Sleep-Cancel-Shutdown window.
Command-Option-Eject          This puts the machine to sleep.
Command-Control-Eject          This closes all apps and restarts the machine.
Command-Option-Control-Eject          This closes all apps and shuts the machine down.

How to change/set default "box selection" in download/open file menu?

I have set downloads option in options-general to "Always ask me where to save files". This is making a menu pop-up with option "Open with" and "Save file" every time I want to download something, and thats what I want. The thing is that depending on type of file I want to download the box for "open file" is ticked for some files like .doc and .xsp files, and the box "save file" is ticked for other files like .zip files.
Sometimes Im downloading many separate files in a short time and it is annoying to to tick "save file" and select ok instead if having "save file" already ticked and just clicking ok.
How can I change this behavior?
My setup:
Firefox 26.0
Download status bar
All-in-one sidebar

See:
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/change-firefox-behavior-when-open-file
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions
Current Firefox versions remember the download directory based upon the URL, so if the URL changes then the default folder may be chosen if there hasn't been selected a download folder before for that server.
You can disable this feature to remember the download directory via the Boolean pref browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite on the about:config page.
The browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite pref doesn't exist by default (it is a hidden pref), so you need to create it.
Create a new Boolean pref with the name browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite and set the value to false.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
You can delete the content-prefs.sqlite file in the Profile Folder to only remove settings stored in this file and keep the exceptions that are stored in permissions.sqlite that would be lost if you clear the "Site Preferences" via Clear Recent History.
