Hidden documents in Windows taskbar (CS6)

How do I prevent PS hiding open documents in CS6? Theyr are hidden in my taskbar unti I mouseover the PS icon, then I get to see them. Sometimes I can't even see the content, just a generic document graphic. I don't understand why they appear like this cause on my other CS6 installation (another machine) they appear open with each document having its seperate space in my taskbar. 

I see. Wish that could affect only my PS docs but since its a Windows setting I guess it's not possible. I tought it had something to do with my PS prefs cause I always tick off the "open documents as tabs" feature. Why does Windows sometimes only show a generic document thumbnail? I mean, why isn't every PS doc showed as a thumbnail of the doc? Seems to me that Windows doesn't always manage to generate a true preview and instead just falls back on a generic thumb view. Thanks for your input on this Noel, much appreciated.

  • Access Time Machine´s hidden files in Windows

    Does anyone know how to access Time Machine´s hidden files in Windows? I tried using MacDrive v7... but in its help files... it says that the app itself (MacDrive) will not show files on a Mac-formatted drive, partion, volume, etc. if MAC OS X itself intentionally hides certain files. Confused?
    If MAC OS X hides files in the Time Machine hard drive, MacDrive will hide them too.
    I want to access some of my documents that are on my Time Machine external hard drive on my Windows computer.
    Why? I took my Time Machine hard drive with me out of the country.

    Are you anywhere near a place that sells Macs? If so, you might see if they will copy the files for you. A university might be another place to check to see if they have any Macs or anything running Unix and would be willing to help you out.

  • CS4 : is there a way to show the windows taskbar in fullscreen mode?

    Does anyone know of a way to be in "FULL SCREEN MODE WITH MENU BAR", but to still have the windows taskbar being displayed? In CS2 XP, the taskbar was always displayed in that mode, but in CS4 64 VISTA, it unfortunately doesn't draw the taskbar in that mode anymore.
    I'm stuck in a bad situation becuase I *must* be able to see the taskbar at all times and I *must* be able to freely reposition the image anywhere I want on screen, and that's impossible right now because of this...
    Anyone know of any hack around this problem? thx.
    -seneca

    I'm having the same problem.... CS3 it worked fine and in CS4 it completely hides the systems tray, task bar, and windows start menu... I know there are "work arounds" but what about people that use a wacom table to do all of their work and need to get to something on their task bar... well they can't now because it's completely hidden.... it'd be nice to have some help with this one please!

  • ITunes Taskbar Cause Windows Taskbar Missing

    When I switched on the iTunes taskbar in WindowsXP, it covered my ordinary Windows taskbar (the part which you see what program is running in the background). Being unable to resize them and make them to fit with each other and coexist, I switched off the iTunes taskbar, hoping to get my Windows taskbar back, unfortunately, it seems to be gone with iTunes taskbar and it is just gone.
    Now I have to keep using Alt-Tab to switch between programs, which is a serious problem.
    Please help me out or my next avenue of solution may be erasing my current HDD with previous image.
    Thanks!

    I have a related problem; see this discussion. I've never had the iTunes taskbar turned on, but after playing a video in full screen my tasbar will often disappear--not hidden, genuinely gone. (Note that, unlike alanngli, this is fixed for me after restart; also, the fix the user in the link describes--turning on and off auto-hide--brings the taskbar back. This might help your situation, alanngli. But still it would be nice not to have to keep doing that!)

  • Reader within Firefox 2x hides base of view behind Windows taskbar?

    I currently use Firefox 22, but have had this issue since v21. This computer came with Windows 7 Home Premium in an OEM version associated with the system's vendor, CompaQ / H-P.
    I have FF set to handle PDF files from external URLs using Adobe Reader XI within Firefox.
    Whenever it opens a URL for a PDF, the bottom end of the vertical scroll bar, and the part of the page view near it, are hidden under the Windows 7 taskbar. (note the lower-right corner of the image following)
    The hidden-stuff issue can be temporarily fixed by enabling / disabling at least one of the Firefox toolbars, but that would have to be done every ____ time a PDF-file URL is opened.
    The only other alternative offered to me so far is using FF's intrinsic PDF.js feature (Preview in Firefox), which makes for a far, far fuzzier view of the PDF file than the Reader-in-FF option. I do NOT want to use Reader (or some alternative thereto) in an external window, as it makes for a longer loading time for the PDF, something which takes even longer using PDF.js / Preview.
    It'd be much easier to solve this once I know the real origin of the problem. Is it Reader, Windows, or Firefox?

    If you lock the taskbar in 7, it should have the same effect as keeping it on top in XP.
    Here's the OTHER thing I noticed on further review of your initial post
    See this?
    Firefox IS NOT maximized in that view. (this from my WIndows 7 in "Classic mode")
    Here's what it looks like maximized (not just expaned to fill the whole screen)
    Notice the center switch - it's different when maximized. When FF is Maximized, it CANNOT be moved under the taskbar. Stretched to full screen (but NOT maximized), it can.

  • ITunes controls hide behind Windows taskbar

    I have my Windows taskbar in a locked position on top of my screen, but whenever i maximize iTunes (10,4.080)  it 'slides' under the taskbar. This way the control buttons in iTunes are hidden behind the taksbar. Does anyone know how to fix this without having to auto-hide the taskbar?

    Same problem here.
    I can get a temporary fix if I move the taskbar to the bottom (the 'default' position) and resize the iTunes window a few times.  Then I move the taskbar back to the top and then maximize iTunes and it sometimes works.
    Needless to say, it shouldn't be necessary to do this kind of thing at all.  I never had this silly issue in any previous version of iTunes.  Come on Apple, you can do better.

  • Windows taskbar for OSX?

    Is there some software out there that would allow me to have a taskbar like in Windows? I like being able to see all the documents and names instead of just seeing icons in the Dock. This is really my only complaint about OSX.

    Expose does a better job than the Windows taskbar.
    Just hit F9, or set expose as a hot corner.

  • When I try compose an email, just get compose window icon stuck in windows taskbar can't actually enlarge it and use it

    Ok, details of installation below, so when I try compose an email, I just get a compose window icon stuck in the windows
    taskbar can't actually enlarge it and use it. If I restart in safe mode with all addons disabled, then it works fine. But
    If I restart normally and manually disable addons/plugins, then close and start normally again i.e not safe mode, it
    breaks, so does not seem to be an addon or plugin but rather something with the configuration.

  • How to display more than one documents on windows 8 desktop?

    how to display more than one documents on windows 8 desktop?

    Adobe Reader Touch doesn't show more than one file on screen and doesn't show them on the desktop. Apparently these are very old fashioned things that Microsoft doesn't think we'll want to do any more and calls them "legacy" to make them sound antiquated.
    If you want to do these things use the legacy Adobe Reader, a much more powerful and flexible app (and not obsolete in the slightest). http://get.adobe.com/reader . There are no legacy apps in the Windows App Store.

  • Is there a way to open pages documents on Windows?

    My ibook G4 died recently out of warranty, and I'm now without a way to open all my documents, which I created and saved in the pages format.
    Is there a way to open these documents on a Windows XP machine, as that is the only machine I currently have available?

    There are certain data you can save copying a Pages document to Windows, but not much. If you copy a Pages document to a Windows machine, you will see that it is in fact a folder. In that folder you will find pictures you have included in the document. You will also find a file called index.xml.gz. You can expand that one on windows - probably with Winzip - and open the xml file in your favourite browser, and then you will see the text you added among quite a lot of garbled text. Formating will be gone.
    To some of us Pages' Mac-centric format is very inconvenient, but many users are quite happy with it, as they rarerly need the documents on a Windows machine. And when it happens they see no problem first exporting it to .doc, .pdf or .rtf format.

  • Can't open secured documents on windows 7 domain client with mandatory profiles.

    While opening certain PDF files we have the problem that the user is presented with a message that he does not have the rights permissions. This happens twice, after that the users gets an empty page with the message the Adobe version might not be up to date. We use Acrobat Pro 10, but this also happens while using Reader 11.0.8. On our windows 2008 terminal services machine this could be fixed by giving the user rights on c:\ to create and remove a file. :O. On windows 7 this doesn't work probably because of UAC. But we've tried every solution to that available on the internet, disabling uac, changing uac options, changing rights on userprofile folders, changing rights on c:\ but to no avail. When using process explorer we can see it wants to create a temp file p328hkl.tmp or something like that on C but it can't and immediattely after is shows the error on screen.
    Anyone who also has this problem or solved it? There are no problems with simple self made pdf files/scans but only with certain types of pdf files for which it tries to create a tmp file.
    Thanks,
    Peter

    Hi Brogers,
    Thanks for your reaction. We do have AppData redirection in place. We redirect AppData to a share on our data server which works perfectly fine for all other applications. The weird thing is that Reader/Acrobat try to write to C:\ which to my knowledge should not happen, is this maybe a fallback because it can’t write to a different location? Users have full control on their own roaming AppData but not on their local AppData that is made by windows itself while copying the mandatory default profile to C:\.
    I might use the wrong term while saying secured documents. I’m talking about a document created by Raet/Youforce a web application for personal administration. The documents can be opened by other viewers than Acrobat/Reader but then only contain the background and not the text. In Acrobat/Reader they do open normally when Acrobat/Reader can create the .tmp file. Otherwise it will not display the file at all. I would attach such a document to see but since it contains certain info I am not allowed to do so.
    I hope we can work out a solution for this.

  • When in fullscreen mode, bottom of Firefox window ends where Windows Taskbar would be, were it not in autohide mode.

    Firefox version: 4
    Windows Version: XP-SP3 (automatic updates)
    My Windows Taskbar is in autohide mode.
    When I launch Firefox in windowed mode and maximize the window, it takes up the entire screen.
    When I move my mouse pointer to the bottom of the screen, the Windows Taskbar pops up.
    When I select Fullscreen mode in Firefox, the top of the window behaves as it should: Menus disappear, and the toolbar area autohides, reappearing when I move my mouse pointer to the top of the screen.
    The bottom of the Firefox window, however, jumps up to where it would be if the Windows Taskbar were not in autohide mode, leaving a black space. While I can move my cursor over this black space, when I reach the bottom of the screen, the Windows taskbar will not unhide, forcing me to use the Windows button if I want to execute some other command.
    If I minimize the Firefox window, then select it from the taskbar, it returns to fullsceen mode and takes up the entire screen (no more black space), but I still cannot get the Windows Taskbar to pop up by moving my cursor to the bottom of the screen.
    While it may seem nit-picky, this is a dealbraker for me. I set Firefox to run in Fullscreen mode, and expect it to do so properly, without having to go through all of these steps. Furthermore, since I use Windows Start button for everything (my desktop has nothing on it but the Recycle Bin), I often use it while browsing (launching other applications, using the Control Panel, or looking through filesystem, among others).
    I am extremely pleased with all other aspects of the browser, right down to the toolbar area not disappearing when my mouse pointer happens to slide off of it after I place my cursor in the search box, and while I would be sad to lose all of these improvements, I will return to Version 3 if I must.
    Thank you very much for your time.

    I'm sorry, it seems I spoke too soon. The original problem is back: Black stripe at the bottom of the screen. :-(

  • Adobe Acrobat plugin creates a fake entry at Windows' taskbar

    Hello. Since a few Firefox and Acrobat Reader versions back (not sure which ones), whenever I open a PDF file in Firefox, Adobe's plugin creates a bogus window at my Windows' taskbar. It has the default unknown application icon, with no title, and it's useless clicking or right-clicking it, as not even a menu shows up. In fact, it is nothing, but it is annoying.
    I am sure it is Adobe's plugin because it doesn't happen neither when I open a PDF with Firefox's built-in reader nor when I have Adobe's plugin enabled and set but not fired yet. Also, the fake window entry goes away a while after I close the last PDF tab.
    I have uploaded a screenshot here: http://s2.postimg.org/rms7ywuvt/screenshot_firefox_adobe_acrobat_reader_plugin_f.jpg

    It's hard to know what is happening here.
    As a test of how Firefox+Acrobat works in an uncustomized Firefox, could you create a new Firefox profile and try that PDF again. In addition to bypassing current add-ons and custom settings, it should have completely fresh settings databases and a fresh cache folder.
    Close Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager as described in this article: [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]. Any time you want to switch profiles, close Firefox and return to this dialog. Two tips:
    * When creating a new profile, I recommend using the default location suggested; if you prefer to use a different folder, to avoid data loss, do not choose any existing folder.
    * I recommend backing up all profiles before using the delete function, so you can recover in case the wrong one gets deleted.
    Does the plugin work any better in the new profile?
