Float to Top; Reposting Message?

Hello all -
Does the "Float to Top" option affect the viewing of just the user who checks it, or does it affect everyone visiting the topic area?  I've looked at the help files and did not see an answer, perhaps I missed it.  If it only affects one user, I have another question.
If your message does not attract an answer within a few days, what is considered the best etiquette to try again for an answer?  Is reposting the message the best solution, or is that frowned upon?  What do others do to make further efforts to try again for an answer?  I assume once a message is stale and moves down the list more than 1 or 2 pages the chances of getting an answer drop dramatically.
Thanks - Randy

Hello Randy_Knowles,
If a user floats a post to the top, it will just effect their personal view, not other users.  
If your message does not receive a response, we ask that users do not re-post or "bump" - both of these are against Community Guidelines.  Instead reread your original post and try  to post again adding more information.  Maybe you found out some new details, or forgot something crucial the first time around.
Hope this helps,

  • Possible to make QT window float on top of all others?

    I want my QuickTime movie window to float on top of all the others, the way some do (like the Microsoft Office Notifications window does). Is it possible? Can a window be set to be automatically on top when another window overlaps?
    Mike

    Thanks - this is a really neat trick! One last question: is there a way to control the size of the QT window within the note? It seems smaller than when I open it by itself.

  • Notes: Float on Top stopped working.

    I have been using Apple Notes to help me organize my desktops.  I have ~6 desktops open and click back and forth for different tasks running simultaneously.  I found that I could "peel off" a note and attach it to a specific desktop.  This suddenly stopped today.  The "Float on Top" option under the Windows pull down menu is now permanently grayed out.  Is there a fix?
    Thank you.

    Hello YCHRC,
    Indeed, the functionality did change somewhat. Now, rather than tearing a note off to display it in a separate window, one would double-click the note's entry in the left-hand list of the Notes application. Once a note is in its own separate window, the 'Float on Top' menu item becomes accessible.

  • How do I play a movie in a separate window and why will my movie not float on top?

    I like to watch movies in a smaller, separate window that floats on top of any other windows.  Since I installed all of the updates, I can not get this to happen.  I read and thought that if you click on the artwork it would launch a separate window but it will launch a music file.  Help please!

    You'll need some sort of additional software. You can still get iDVD by purchasing the iLife '11 retail box (it's available from the Apple Store or probably any Apple dealer). Or you can get other software such as Roxio's Toast. There's also a simple free application you can try:

  • I receive a text from someone but it has an e-mail address at top of message. When I reply and send , it gets returned. Why? and how was original message sent?

    I have downloaded I-Cloud and the new ios program. Where do my text go through now if they don't show up on my bill in the data usage section? When I get a text from friends sometime their e-mail address shows at the top of the message instead of their name like it use to. Then when I reply it gets returned. They tell me they are sending it through the normal text like they use to.

    You are probably right - I don't have my iPad with me and was confusing myself.  But on the iPad it is receive at email addresses only.
    Sending to the phone number will mean ONLY your iPhone gets the message.  If you want it to go to ALL devices, then you should have them send to the email address associated with the AppleID you used to set up iMessage originally.  Also set that email address up as your caller id on the iPhone so as you send out messages, people will reply to that and both your devices should get them.
    Although Apple's notes indicate you should be able to do it - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
    what if you just type in a 10-digit phone number on the iPad instead of an email?
    (I originally did all this with iOS 5.0, and I know then the number did not work on an iPad, but maybe with iOS 5 updates, it does now?)

  • Can't see attachments at top of message

    Hi,
    On all of my mail messages with attachments, when I click on the arrow in the message header to reveal the attachments, they aren't there.
    Although, the attached files appear in the message below absolutely fine.
    This means that when I click on 'save' to save the attachments, nothing happens.
    But I can drag the attachment from the message below onto, say the desktop, and the file is fine.
    This is happening on both my iMac and MacBook synced through .mac, on the same mail messages.
    Any ideas?

    I am here at the forum for this exact problem (I think)! Could it be an update mail issue?
    I sent emails yesterday with attachments. They arrived embedded for the receiver and she couldn't download them. She said they became .bmp files. I sent them as .jpg and I'd even clicked 'send windows friendly attachments. On my email it looked like I was sending them attached not embedded (paperclip and the number of attachments were listed at the top) but when I go to sent mail, I can't download or control-click:view as an icon, either!?!?!?!?!

  • Entourage reply - setting the signature to be at the TOP of message

    Hi
    When I send out my emails the signature has the logo centred at the top of the message and then the signature at the bottom of the message.
    When there is a thread going with the email, my replies look awful because the signature is now buried at the bottom of the email.
    Is there a way to set this up so the logo and signature stay at the top of each message?
    Thanks, I've tried to figure it out, but no luck.

    Signatures are designed to be at the bottom of a message, and in a single location, so you can't have a reply signature place some items at the top of a message and others at the bottom.
    It will stay at the bottom and there isn't much you can do about it unfortunately!
    Why don't you format something that will look good at the bottom of a message and set different new message and reply signatures?

  • Float roll over image on top help

    Its looking quite messy.I have an image that is circular, 6
    points and each point has a rollover effect where a paragraph of
    text is to be displayed in middle of circle. I created the points
    to buttons, F6 on each button state, created a new layer and on
    rollover here I added my paragraph text with gray background so the
    text stands out.
    Problem Im having is the points of circle are 6 images along
    outside of circle. Some paragraphs of text are over some images,
    and some images are hiding parts of paragraph and gray backing. ???
    I think I need a float on top command for each paragraph
    symbol.
    My main timeline has only one line and one frame. I thought
    there may be an issue with the way the images are ordered in
    library, but tried moving some up and down and it didnt seem to
    help.
    Any suggestions on this? Im about brain dead over trying to
    get this to work.

    put all the paragraphs on the topmost layers. or convert them
    to movieclips and use the swapDepths() method.

  • My iOS6 message list scrolls automatically to top! :(

    I use my iphone daily to message individuals personally one after another after another. The new iOS is annoyingly putting my message list back to the top of the list each time I send a message. This is terrible because now I not only have to scroll down to the past message I left off with, but just finding the area I left off on is more difficult and time consuming now. I have between 100 and 200 messages I send out daily... and what used to take me less than an hour, now takes nearly two hours. Is there no way to make "scrolling to top" of message list an option? Ugh!

    Yes that way it won't jump to the top.
    But the problem is I don't save the phone number to address book because there are really more than 100 messages of them, and if I do it that way, it become really confusing when I choose the sender, because I need to remember which number I already sent.
    So instead, I just scroll down to the previous message which I have sent to them before, open the message, paste the text message, added some information in the text message, and then send it. (just normal reply message)

  • Float Video over web page

    Hello all -
    I would like to float a video over a web page, so that when
    the web pages is scrolled the video remains on the screen. I have
    contacted technical support and was told this involved Div tags,
    and CSS. Both of which I'm fairly familiar with. However, they did
    not tell me how to do this, but referred me here.
    I have a video that has been converted to an FLV with a
    transparent background. I have the web page and the video plays on
    it just fine. Now, I need to be able to scroll the web page while
    the video 'floats' on top the screen.
    Can any one help? PLEASE?
    Many thanks!
    D-

    If you don't have to worry about IE6 or earlier, you can use
    the CSS style
    for position:fixed, as is done on the
    http://www.csszengarden.com
    page for
    the Eric Stoltz design.

  • Create a pop-up help message

    Hello,
    I'm looking for  a way to create a pop-up help message.  What I want to have is 'section help' button.  When a user clicks on the button, a small screen pops-up with instruction how to fill out the form. 
    I'm trying to use the below but it looks so ugly.
    xfa.host.messageBox("Please select the application that you need to request an account for" , "Select Application(s)", 5, 5);
    I searched the web and came across the pop-up pdf http://forums.adobe.com/message/2386742#2386742
    I however, don't know how to make the button float on top of the form.  Could you please explain to me how to create a button from a pdf and how to make it float on top of the form?
    Thank you very much for your help.
    Best regards,
    Sahra

    You can put text into the Tool Tip box in the Accessibility palette for that.

  • Is there any way to create a mini Now Playing window that can "float?"

    Hi,
    I've been reading the Help in iTunes, as well as searching the Net, but I'm not finding the functionality I want. Basically, I want to have a mini Now Playing window that I can reposition so it's not covered up by other windows while I'm working. Is there a plugin that will do this, or is it a standard feature of iTunes, that I've overlooked?
    Thanks,
    Jason

    I'm not sure what you're asking about. What "announcement" are you seeing? Is it possible you've installed a plugin of some sort? iTunes, on its own, doesn't announce what song is playing, except in its usual little gray window.
    You can get rid of the iTunes window entirely by clicking the red "close window" button in the upper left (or typing command-option-1). If you are still looking for an answer to your original question — creating a mini-player that floats on top of all other windows — click the green "minimize" button and select "Keep MiniPlayer on top of all other windows" in Preferences > Advanced.
    I don't know which Chris you're talking about.

  • After deleting message, focus goes to message above instead of below?

    Quite hard to explain, but I have my email ordered by most recent received at the top.
    Lets say the top 4 messages shown in my inbox are ones I want to keep. The 3 below are ones I want to delete.
    The I highlight the 5th message and hit the delete button.
    Mail then highlights the message above, where as Thunderbird on my PC would highlight the one below. This becomes very annoying when going through the inbox from the top and deleting as I am going.
    Sorry if this doesnt make sense but does anyone know how this can be changed, or finds it a problem also?
    Cheers

    James,
    I am having this same problem... I say problem, because I don't recall earlier versions of Apple Mail behaving this way. I upgraded to 10.6 right after it was released, noticed the behavior immediately but expected a resolution in the coming updates. Well, after applying 10.6.5 this behavior continues and to be honest - annoying. This performance disrupts the flow of reviewing and deleting/processing email.
    Came here hoping for an answer or solution.
    And to note: The iPhone does not do this. iPhone will recognize the order in which you are navigating and will continue the flow even after deleting a message.
    We can't be the only ones annoyed by this performance.
