Force flash to open file download box in front of the flash movie

Folks,
I'm making a dvd title using flash to auto start when people
pops the dvd disc in.
I have a button 'Click here to download the movie' and
clicking the button should pop up a file download box so people can
save the movie file(.mov) to their desktop.
Problem is that the file download box shows up behind the
flash movie so people won't be able to see the download box since
it's hidden behind the flash. This is critical since I intend the
flash to open as a full-screen mode.
Is there a way to force the flash to open the download box in
front of the flash movie?
I tried getURL and fscommand ("exec", "filename.exe") and
even fileReference commands to try different way of linking the
movie file, and they all open download box behind the flash.
Please help~~~

Please do not post the same topic in multiple forums. The
only thing I can suggest is when they click on the button to
download, you take flash out of full screen while they download the
video, you can use fileReference to control and monitor the
download. Use a listener object to monitor when download is
complete, then set flash back to full screen.
How are you scripting the full screen?

Open file dialog box - Excel 2011

Not sure if this is the right forum to ask a question about running Office 2011 under Mavericks.
Since upgrading to OSX 10.9, something very odd seems to have happend to the open file dialog box in Excel. The list of the files in the current folder is displayed, but the filename column is really narrow showing just 7 characters of each name. In contrast the date modified column is incredibly wide. I can manually adjust the filename column to make it wider so I can read the filenames, but each time I reopen Excel it has defaulted back to being very narrow.
Does anyone know if there a preference setting somewhere that I can change in order to make the width default to something more readable so I don't have to manually change it every time I want to open a file. The Word and Powerpoint open dialog boxes appear normal, so the problem seems to be confined to Excel.
I had been running the same version of Office 2011 under Snow Leopard and the change to Excel only appeared after upgrading the OSX 10.9.

I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

Canon 1DX support was added to ACR in version 6.7, 7.1. An updated CS6 should be at level ACR 8.6. If your ACR is not at level 8.6 try using CS6 menu Help>Updates. If that does not install ACR 8.6 try downloading the ACR and DNG 8.6 converter and see if ACR 8.6 will install into your CS6.

Report Print & Export Issue (File Download Box appears)

We send a URL to Crystal Enterprise which runs a script, logs on, finds folder, finds report and displays in the Crystal report viewer. All that works fine....
However, when you select the print icon or the export icon a Windows Internet Explorer box to select page range etc. and then when you say OK, you recieve a File Download Box asking to Open/Save/Cancel one of the following:
Print - Name: CrystalViewer.pdf, and Type of pdf_auto_file
Export - Name: CrystalViewer.rpt, and Type of CrystalReports
I have no IDEA what he is trying to do but he sure ain't printing. I can only assume that I have a missing part that he is trying to download at the time of print/export. Or that there is something set in the script that is killing me...

How to trigger an "open file" dialog box

I am using forms 10g. Does anyone know of codes to trigger "open file" dialog box in a button object?
My goal is that the user may be able to select a file from his terminal by clicking a button.
Thanks in advance.

As aweiden suggests, there are additional setup steps that have to be completed on your workstation as well as the Forms server so you can use the WebUtil library. If you are using Forms 10g R2, then I recommend you conduct a search of the Forms Help system (Search tab) on "WebUtil" and select the "Configuring WebUitl" topic. If you are on Forms 10g R1 (9.0.4), then you had to download and install WebUtil on your workstation. I recommend you read the Web_Util.pdf in the "DOC" folder an follow all of the steps in Chapter 2 : Configuring WebUtil.

File download box does not appear when trying to download adobe

As I was unable to open any pdf documents i uninstalled & tried to reinstall adobe however nothing happens, the file download box doesn't open at all. I'm using windows 7 home premium. Anyone got any suggestions, could there be something causing this in my computer?

Use the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

Please fix: Common Open File Dialog Box to support Favorites (Follow-up: Better provisioning in the Windows client)

One more thing:
What's missing is favorites is a way to use the favorites space in the Common Open File Dialog Box.
Please obsolete or (re)develop components in Windows, so those components support any new workflows in Windows!
On example of an application where you cannot use Favorites is Adobe Photoshop. It uses the Common Open File Dialog Box in Windows (which does not support Favorites).
Comparing Finder (MacOS) with Windows Explorer - you "seem" to have the option of using favorites to pin folders.
Well, if your application calls Windows to use the Common Open File Dialog Box - it's actually NOT POSSIBLE AT ALL to navigate to the user concepts (user folders) pinned to favorites.
Again, the favorites namespace is completely unused (not provisioned) out-of-the-box. That's may be ok, however it's not fully implemented across Windows and just another example of stuff accumulating up to being unusable.
What's missing is favorites is a way to use the favorites space in the Common Open File Dialog Box.

Unwanted File Download box in JSF - Problem while Saving State.

Hi,
I am having a situation wherin there are multiple command links dynamically generated in a dataTable.When I click on any one of the links a file download dialogue pops up to save/open a pdf doc.Irrespective of any operations on the download dialogue, if I click on anyother link (i.e this is the 2nd click on tat page)
then the file download doesnt pop up and instead the page is refreshed.
On the 3rd click , the file download again pops up.
The code in the action method of the command link goes like this
public void showPDF() {
byte[] pdf = // gets the data from another place.
FacesContext faces = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
          HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse) faces.getExternalContext().getResponse();
          response.setContentType("application/pdf");
          response.setContentLength(pdf.length);
          response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment");
          response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "cache, must-revalidate");
          response.setHeader("Pragma", "public");
          try {
               ServletOutputStream output = response.getOutputStream();
               output.write(pdf);
          } catch (IOException e) {
                    log.debug("IOException in viewPdf: " + e.toString());
     faces.responseComplete();
}To fix the above problem ...I have included the following 2 lines of code just before invoking the responseComplete() method :
StateManager stateManager = (StateManager)
                                                                faces.getApplication().getStateManager();
     stateManager.saveSerializedView(faces);This solves the above problem but causes another problem for which I need help :
There is a value change listener in my jsp.When I change the value in a drop down list in the same page, the file download dialogue is poping up. which shuld only pop up when am clicking any one of the command links.
I debugged thru the code and found out that after the value change listener action method is finished executing it jumps and executes the above showPDF() method.
Seems its something to do with saving of the client state.
It will be of great help anyone can advise on this.
Thanks

When I hit the escape key to close out the open file dialog box, firefox hangs or crashes.

When I open the "open file" dialog box using the ctrl+O and then hit the escape key to exit the box, I get an error message which I'm not able to paste here.
it says something about a runtime problem and if I try the same thing again to reproduce the problem, it will sometimes just hang and windows vista will tell me the program is not responding.
I've checked to see if there are any crash IDs but none were found for this time frame.
I have even disabled all add ons.
I'm currently using vista 64 bit edition and Firefox 6, beta edition.

Hi,
Please also try right-clicking on the link corresponding to the language version and '''Save Target As''' to save the Firefox installer. If the problem persists, posting [http://answers.microsoft.com/ here] would also be helpful.

Why can't I preview indd files within InDesign's open file dialog box?

Hello all,
It is bad enough that Adobe doesn't add a plugin to preview any Adobe source file within Windows Explorer (well, except for PDF but I think Microsoft did that).
But I find it ridiculous that I cannot preview .indd source files inside InDesign's Open File dialog box. It just states, "No preview available". I am sure this failure is tied into what Windows can preview... still, not a good excuse!
This is also the same problem in both Illustrator and Photoshop.... neither Adobe program can preview their own file format!
WHY? OR How can I correct this?
[UPDATE: SageThumbs | SourceForge.net seems to partially work on many Photoshop files (works reasonably well as long as I limit the file size to 70mb), it doesn't seem to work on Illustrator files (despite the claim), and it doesn't work on InDesign.]
Still, the question remains, why isn't Adobe taking responsibility for this?

I think you all misunderstood.
I am referring to opening files *within* the Adobe software. Example: Inside InDesign, I click File > Open... I see a list of my .indd files and to the right is a window with the words, "Select a file to preview." If I select an .indd file, I think it is reasonable to assume that I will see a preview of the .indd file... but NO, I just see the message, "No preview available."
In my opinion, this is a failing of Adobe!
> Use bridge
Why would I want to open a separate program just to see thumbnails? Sure Bridge has its uses when I want to look at a lot of different images but I am only talking about quickly seeing a thumbnail before I open a single file within either InDesign, Photoshop, or Illustrator.
Q. If Bridge can render thumbnails, why on Earth would Adobe not place the preview code into the open file dialog of each program?

How to Shw Open File Dialog Box

Hi all,
Can anyone help me plz.

File Download box appears despite content being text/html .....

Hi
I am supporting a set of web pages which display data to the user based on XML transformed by a set of style sheets. Currently when the user does something and fires the doPost method we get the "File Download" box appear with the message "Some files can harm your computer .................... ". The downloaded file is just the HTML used to display info to the user (with the appropriate embedded stuff from the stylesheet)
I was under the impression that this dialogue box only appears when the content type is not understood by the browser. However, the content type is text/html ... so i am a bit stumped.
can anyone suggest other ways in which this message can appear?
cheers
chris

Just on the off chance anyone else ever has this problem and fins this post ( the problem was solved a long time and i forgot to update the post).
The application in question attempts to log into a database via OC4J. The connection information in the data-sources.xml file was incorrect (specifically the database listener port). This was generating some bizarre exception which was propogated up and resulted in the above behaviour. I suspect that you could get the same effect thogh for many other reasons, so if you are having this problem i wouldnt get too hung up on this as a possible cause,.

ICloud doesn't show up in Numbers open file dialog box

How do you add iCloud to the Numbers open file dialog box? It doesn't show up for me. I've already set up iCloud in my system preferences and enabled document synching.

Unfortunately, since I don't use iWork on my Mac I'm not going to be much help. But unless there's something in Numbers settings that you need to enable to use iCloud like you do in the iOS version, all you should need to do is enable Documents & Data in System Preferences>iCloud, which you said you already did. You might try unchecking this setting in System Preferences, restarting your Mac, then checking it again to see if that makes any difference. That is a standard troubleshooting step for other iCloud syncing issues.

Filenames grayed out in "Open" file dialog box

I'm trying to use Garmin POI file loader for the Mac (v2.01). It's a tool to load data from comma delimited files, in a specific format, to a GPS. It all works until I click the browse button, and a "Open" file dialog pops up. All the files are grayed out. I tryed:
1) Renaming the file
2) With and without the CSV extension
3) Resaving the file with Excel specifying CSV format.
4) Tried on 10.4 and 10.5 Macs.
5) Using a CSV file directly after downloading off the net
I guess it could be a problem with the loader, but I suspect I'm doing something wrong outside of that. Any ideas?

Well darn, it won't let me run it without a Device to send it to, but looking inside it I see
