Highlighter add-on not working in windows 8.1 thunderbird 31.4.0

I installed Highlighter add-on to Thunderbird 31.4.0 with Windows 8.1. If I select text in composition, pull down the Highlighter menu and click on a color, the selected text color does not change. Stays with default. Same result if I just pick a color and follow up with typing.
I'm comparing this with Mac Mail where highlighting comes with the Mac. All you do is select text, pick a color, and voila! the change is made. Also Mac has a full spectrum of colors possible, with varying saturations. I don't see that with the Highlighter add-on; you have seven choices, two of which are gray.

Airmail: I don't know how to contact the developer--yet. I was hoping this support would get me what I needed without my having to hunt him down. With so few colors available I'm not sure it's worth it.
sfhowes: thx for the try. Sounds reasonable but didn't work for me. I tried choosing color, then clearing, then selecting text, then choosing color. The background did not change on the first step; I clicked Clear anyway, and the selected text also did not change. I'm guessing this is yet another obstacle with Windows 8.1.
Btw, I recommend you stick with Win 7 as long as possible. My sister had Win 7, "upgraded" to 8.1 and now she's spitting bricks over it. I came from XL, and if I could backgrade down to XL on my new machine, I'd do it even without MS support. I have Eudora on the old XL machine which has a built in select and color tool that works just fine.

  • MFA not working on Windows Server 2012 R2

    Been using MFA since PF days.  Deployed it successfully many times but for some reason it's not working with Windows Auth, Terminal Services on a Win 2012 R2 DataCenter box?  The machine was successfully added to my domain PhoneFactor group, I
    can see and add the machine on the master MFA.  Services are running but when I remote in I go right through without MFA stopping me?  Any ideas?
    TIA

    6.3.0 has just been released and 2012 R2 is *still* not supported. What the hell?!?
    "Version 6.3.0 of the Azure Multi-Factor Authentication Server adds the
      following additional functionality:
    * Added one-way SMS functionality for AD FS, RADIUS and User Portal
    * Added .csv file import for OATH tokens
    * Added support to parse phone numbers in E.164 format during import
      From the directory
    * Fixed problem preventing slave servers from performing MFA if the
      master server was unavailable. This problem was found to exist in
      all 6.2.x builds. All customers running 6.2.x should upgrade to 6.3.
    * Fixed directory sync issue for recursive security groups
    * Added additional logging to AD FS adapter
    * Other minor bug fixes and security improvements
    Known Issues:
    * Windows Authentication for Terminal Services is still not supported for
      Windows Server 2012 R2"
    So they added a whole stack of other functionality, but still didn't get around to taking a look at this bug. I'm stunned. Is there any sort of timeline on fixing this, or is 2012 R2 just going to remain unsupported forever?

  • Flash 10.2 not working in Windows 7 IE8 despite 'successful' installation

    Hi there,
    I downloaded flash player to attempt to view flash media on sites such as bbc website and youtube.
    Despite the installation claiming to be successful, I still cannot view video on any sites I have tried.
    (bbc website says I don't have the correct version, youtube says I need to upgrade)
    My system details are as follows:
    Windows 7 Home Premium, 32-bit operating system
    Internet Explorer 8.0.7600.16385IC  (it makes no mention of being 64-bit)
    Flash Player 10.2.152.26
    I have tried following the troubleshooting guides on the adobe website, particularly 'Flash player does not work in Windows 7'
    but I have not managed to fix the problem.
    I've also gone through several threads on this forum, relating to similar problems, but I'm sorry I haven't been able to fix it.
    So far, the stuff I have tried is listed below, but since it has not worked, I assume I have done something incorrectly, missed something,
    or I have not yet found the right solution.
    The Flash Player does not appear on my programs list, but it does show up in the control panel/list of installed programs.
    I don't know how to get flash player to run on its own, so I can't access settings etc. for the hardware acceleration.
    The folder located at C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash contains 5 files:
    Flash10m.ocx; FlashInstall.log ; FlashUtil10m_ActiveX.dll; FlashUtil10m_ActiveX.exe; install.log
    When I visit the adobe page for testing flash player, it does not show me any animation; there is a blank white rectangle with a tiny red 'X' in its top left corner, which I assume should be a box containing the version information if the player had been recognized.
    I have looked at the IE8 'tools/Manage Add-Ons - 'show' All Add Ons, and there is no listing of  'Shockwave  Flash Object'
    although there is a listing of   'shockwave activeX control' which is enabled.
    I've set my IE8 security settings to medium for the categories of 'Trusted Sites' and 'Internet' and I've made sure to set:
    'Download Signed ActiveX Controls' to 'Prompt'  and 'Run ActiveX Controls And Plug-ins' to 'Enable'
    I've tried unintalling the flash player using the specified tool, removing the adobe download tool, and manual re-installation.
    Finally, I tried (with much hesitation) to modify the registry key referred to in the Flash-Killer or 'kill-bit' guidlines.
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}
    The key existed, with a Name: compatibility flags  ; Type: REG_DWORD  ; Data: 0x0000400 (1024)
    So I changed the value from 400 to 000 as suggested.
    This is not worked either, despite uninstalling flash player, re-booting and re-installing.
    Finally, I updated the graphics driver for my ATI RADEON HD 5670 card, but aside from scaring me by drastically altering the screen resolution and not allowing me to roll back the driver, it has unfortunately not solved the flash player problem.
    I appreciate that the people with expertise have given loads of help on this problem, I hope I haven't missed something important when following the advice, but I'm pretty stuck, so if anyone can help, I thank you very much.
    thanks,
    pad

    Hi eidnolb,
    unfortunately, the installation of FP 9.0.280 based on running flashplayer9r280_winax.exe has not worked:
    I cannot see the animation / spinning, there is no animation and no box showing the version.
    (I have included a partial screenshot in this message, file name flashplayer_test_screenshot.jpg)
    Therefore, I did not continue with the instructions.
    The control panel list of programs does show 'Adobe Flash Player ActiveX' as being installed, version 9.0.280.0
    There were no messenger utilites listed in the system tray.
    As you advised, the first thing I did was to modify the {D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000} registry key value from 400 to 000.
    After modifying the value by making it Zero, I re-started the computer.
    Regarding Administrator Account, I looked on ther 'User Accounts' information, and there is only one user, my dad, and he is listed as Administrator.
    Sorry, but I will need to ask for your further advice. In case it is useful, I tried to get a list of all processes that were running on the computer
    (in case some of them inhibit the installation. most of them don't mean anything to me, even when they are given a description by the windows 7 Task Manager Processes List - I have pasted the text file below in this post, since I couldnt see how to attach files.)
    thank you for your help,

  • SoundBlaster 5.1 not working in Windows 7

    )SoundBlaster 5. not working in Windows 7E Hello all, I installed a SoundBlaster 5. VX sound card into my system: A Fujitsu-Siemens Celsius M430, 3.4 GHz Intel processor, 2GB of RAM and a fresh installation of Windows 7 Ultimate (retail version). I initially tried to use the drivers provided on the product CD, which during installation gave me a bluescreen. After reboot, I downloaded the latest drivers for Windows 7 from the CLE website. But still, the drivers seem to not install correctly - I get a message that the SB 5. VX is ready for use, but the speaker symbol still shows a red cross and when I click on it, Windows suggests me to re-install the drivers, which gives me the same results even after rebooting. In the Device Manager, the device has a yellow exclamation mark besides it. Additonally, I may mention that the onboard sound device is a SoundMax onboard system, which I now have disabled. Anyhow, the SounbdBlaster is recognized by CLE AutoUpdate software (but needs no update according to the mesages). I'm a bit thrown up, did anybody encounter the same problems or have a solution yet? Cheers Dennis

    I have a subwoofer and 5 speakers (2 for front, 2 for rear, 1 for center)...Philips MMS460 5.1.  Connection to the on-board RealTek HD Audio is simple, orange for the subwoofer, green for front and black for rear.I have already tried downloading the latest drivers from the motherboard manufacturers website,I have tried connecting the subwoofer connectors to different jacks (reversed black and green).
    I have experimented with the settings in the RealTek HD Audio Manager and Control Panel->Sound windows.  Nothing works.
    These exact same subwoofer and speakers worked perfectly fine in vISTA Home basic
    1. Disconnect the speaker system from the pc rear audio panel
    2. Remove the on-board audio using the "Add or Remove Hardware" option in Control Panel
    3. Reboot the pc, install the driver.  Re-connect the speaker system.
    4. Using the Sound applet found in Control Panel, configure the speakers for surround sound
    5. Reboot the pc.
    And now resume all of that ...i have been on Realtek hd audio manager->Speaker configuration set on 5.1 making the test ...EVERITHING WORKS FINE but ...finally when i open for example WINAMP AND PLAY A SONG ....is only  played on front *or stereo..So on what im wrong?

  • Microsoft Excel 2013 add-in not working after update

    I have originally posted this question at answers.microsoft.com and have been re-directed to post here. (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-excel/microsoft-excel-2013-add-in-not-working-after/298aff03-c90a-4a2a-b67b-07b6f3c7648c)
    We are an organization with over 200 users and are currently using Microsoft Office 2013 (Click-to-run install via Office 365 portal), we have noticed that in Excel when we apply the monthly Office update, the add-in (e.g. Analysis Toolpak) would stop working
    with the following error message displayed.
    I tried updating from 15.0.4631.1004 to 15.0.4641.1003,
    15.0.4641.1003 to 15.0.4649.1004, they all gave the same results.
    I have checked the captioned file path and it is indeed missing, I think the update mechanism messed up the add-in somehow, a full re-install would fix it as quick or online repair is not doing the trick.  This is not the only add-in it is affecting
    as there are some 3rd party add-ins are affected as well.
    Please advise how we can fix this without needing to re-install Microsoft Office.  Thank you!

    I don't have 365 or C2R so I can't address your main question, so just a few thoughts which may not be applicable in your setup.
    Check the addin manager to see if your addins are listed and ticked. If listed (ticked or not) check the registry to see where the location is written, if ticked look here
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Excel\Options
    and look for keys named OPENx, where x is the order number the addin is loaded
    if not "ticked" instead of \Options look in \Add-in-Manager
    With a VBA macro or in the VBE's immediate window return
    Application.LibraryPath 
    Assuming you found a listing in the registry do the paths match, if not look in the .LibraryPath to see if the addins got unloaded there into the subfolder \Analysis
    If you find the file(s) try un-installing and reinstalling the addins, but browse to the actual folder don't simply tick. If you can't find the files, copy them (from a different system) to the folder indicated by .LibraryPath. In the addin manager uninstall
    them if installed, close the manager, open it again and the addins should be listed, tick to re-install.
    You say your other addins don't work, I wonder if some mixup has occurred with what Excel thinks is the default path, but note for other addins the default addins path is returned by app.UserLibraryPath
    Are you using a Chinese system?

  • Wireless Card does not work in Windows 8.1 for G585

    I just wanted to inform someone that the wireless network card does not work in Windows 8.1 Preview. I suspect the driver needs to be updated. When I go to the Device Manager it appears as a Realtek device RTL8192DE instead of a Qualcomm device that does not start. I tried installing the latest driver from the website but it makes the computer crash (BSOD) when trying to reboot after the installation which makes the Windows 8 automatic recovery turn on and I had to restore the system to a previous state before the driver installation.
    For now, I just refreshed my system back to Windows 8, instead of trying to use Windows 8.1 Preview .  If you have any suggestions, it would be great, otherwise I'll wait for a driver update.

  • Plugin created using C++ 6 and Acrobat 6 SDK Not Working in Windows

    I have an Acrobat plugin compiled in Visual C++ 6 using Acrobat 6 SDK. The plugin works flawlessly in Acrobat versions 6 to 9 in Windows XP. While the plugin is able to add a menu iterm and tool bar icon in Windows 7, it causes Acrobat to hang everytime when activated in which event I have to close Acrobat. Since Visual C++ 6 is a 32 bit app, I have to believe that Acrobat 6 SDK is responsible for the behavior described herein in attempting to get the plugin to work in Windows 7. Any comments or suggestions regarding what Visual C++ version to use along with the appropriate Acrobat SDK to get the plugin to work in Windows 7 are appreciated. In doing so, I would also be interested in knowing what backward compatibility one may expect w/regard to previous versions of Acrobat in updating the plugin to work in Windows 7. As for the answer, correct me if I am wrong but I'm thinking Acrobat 9.

    Adobe hasn't supported Acrobat 6, VC6 or the Acrobat 6 SDK for at least 5 years.  You will need to move to the Acrobat 9 SDK if you wish support.
    And Acrobat 9 and its SDK are fine with Windows 7.

  • Flash not working on Windows 8.1

    My flash player is not working on windows 8.1 (64g) with internet explorer. I have troubleshooted several times, and active x filtering is not checked off in the safety tab under settings and under manage add-ons shockwave flash is enabled. These are the only things that I can do to get it enabled according to the adobe website. What else can I do to make flash work on windows 8 in internet explorer?

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

  • Rocketfish Bluetooth Keyboard RF-BTKB2 not working under Windows 7 64 bit

     Rocketfish Bluetooth Keyboard RF-BTKB2 not working under Windows 7 64 bit
    Anyone had successs in this or another Bluetooth Keyboard after a bit of a struggle?  What did you do to get it working?  When I Add Device in Bluetooth it sees the keyboard but enlessly scans for it when I try to select and connect.  The Rocketfish Bluetooth mouse worked just fine.

    My friend, i have both, the bluetooth mouse and keyboard here that your talking about. and the keyboard was a struggle to pair with the windows 7 64 bit.... i think i spent 2 days working with it. and i didnt try anything special, i just kept trying to pair
    it, and unplugging the dongle and working with it... and after a while. it worked... Lately though, i have been looking into getting a wired mouse and keyboard becuase of the delays and sleep time i have with my current keyboard(rocketfish). supposidly there
    is a way around the delays but it disables all the options on your keyboard. IE the media buttons, and web browsing features. and my mouse keeps dieing off too....
    Also, after researching these products more, i found that alot of people experienced similar problems with them, Being delays and mouse failure. Even with fresh batteries and all. The products werent meant to be used long term(2-3 years) for extensive use...
    I dont know about you but i thinki paid 100 bucks for the pair so thats only 25 bucks a year... Which is kinda silly considering i coulda got a better one that wont cough up on me.
    If anyone reading this finds a good wireless keyboard that doesnt delay, and a mouth that doesnt delay...(my biggest concern). Please mention it. i am very interested in.

  • Beats Audio Control Panel software not working after Windows 10 upgrade.

    Beats Audio Control Panel software not working after Windows 10 upgrade.  the Beats sound enhancement is useless in WIndows 10. When opening the Windows 10 sound properties  I'm getting this box message: Auido enhancement problem Windows has detected the audio enhancement for the following device are causing problems: Speakers / Headphones (IDT High Definition Audio Codec) Woud you like to disable driver enhancement for this device?  IDT High Definition Audio CodecBeats Audio Control Panel version6.10.6491.02013.11.2009:43:18 Please provide some kind of fix for this?

    Well, it has been a long road on the Win 10 upgrade. At first I got the same error message as above, but after deleting the Dolby Advanced Audio v2 in Win 10 using Control Panel Programs and Features and rebooting, I got into the continual BSOD upon reboot. Here are the steps I took to at least get stable on Windows 10. First, I rolled back to Windows 8.1 using the advanced feature in the BSOD recovery options. Once back in Win 8.1, I deleted the Dolby Advanced Audio v2 using Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel. Then I downloaded the Win 10 update and re-installed it. Once that completed, I updated the Intel Graphics driver under the display adapters (on my G780 it is an Intel HD Graphics 4000, and the driver can be found at  https://downloadcenter.intel.com/). Currently I am running version 10.18.10.4252 for my machine. Then, under the Device Manager, I updated the Conexant SmartAudio HD driver under the Sound, video, and game controllers. That driver is currently at 8.66.4.50 and was automatically downloaded from the web when I requested to update driver.  I also changed several others settings such as Notify to schedule restart after updates are installed instead of automatic (under Settings --> Update & Security --> Advanced Options) and Do you want Windows to download driver software and realistic icons for your devices? --> No, let me choose what to do, never install driver software from Windows Update.  After that, I shut down the machine, waited a moment and booted back up. I have no idea why this helped or if it is overkill, but I am stable and running without a fear of rebooting now. Hope this helps if someone else is having this same issue.

  • Exporting Crystal Report to HTML is not working in Windows 7

    Hi Sir,
    I am trying to export Crystal Report to HTML format using VB.NET code. Functionality is working fine at Windows XP Environment (Save to Disk, Open an Application and Email Attachment). But the same functionality is not working at Windows 7 Environment (both 32-Bit as well as 64-Bit).
    Below is the code to Exporting Crystal Report to HTML in VB.NET.
    Dim CrDiskFileDestinationOptions As New DiskFileDestinationOptions
    Dim CrFormatTypeOptions          As New HTMLFormatOptions
    Dim vFormat As Integer
    Dim CrExportOptions As New ExportOptions
    Dim vRdReport As New ReportDocument
    Dim sfd As SaveFileDialog
    Dim vFileName As String = Nothing
    vRdReport = vRptSource
    sfd = New SaveFileDialog
    If Not (vRptPath = "") Then
        sfd.InitialDirectory = vRptPath
    End If
    sfd.Filter = "Webpage, Complete(.htm;.htm)|.htm|Web Archive, Single file(.mht)|.mht|Webpage, HTML only(.htm;.html)|.html"
    If sfd.ShowDialog = DialogResult.OK Then
        ' Set the disk file options.
         CrDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName = sfd.FileName.ToString()
    Else
         Return
    End If
    CrExportOptions = vRdReport.ExportOptions
    CrFormatTypeOptions.HTMLFileName = vFileName
    CrFormatTypeOptions.HTMLEnableSeparatedPages = True
    CrFormatTypeOptions.HTMLEnableSeparatedPages = True
    CrFormatTypeOptions.HTMLHasPageNavigator = True
    CrFormatTypeOptions.UsePageRange = True
    With CrExportOptions
                        .ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile
                        .ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.HTML32
                        .DestinationOptions = CrDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName
                        .FormatOptions = CrFormatTypeOptions
    End With
    vRdReport.Export()
    Catch ex As Exception
            MsgBox(ex.ToString)
    End Try
    Code working fine at Windows XP, But it is not woking in Windows 7 environment.
    Please can anyone share your valuable thoughts or ideas reg. this.
    Thanks in Advance

    Run this code to reproduce the issue.Which issue?
    It looks like inheritance is broken in the component hierarchy for JFrame in Windows 7 JDK 1.6.0_23-b05. The only thing remotely related to inheritance in your code snippet is the WindowListener, which does little. See camickr's advice about built-in exit management.
    EDIT - using the post title as a clue, I realize you may be talking about the component hierarchy, and whether the contentPane's background is visible through the upper layers. Instead of guessing, I'd prefer you describe your "issue" accurately (observed vs expected behavior).

  • APPLE mouse & keyboard not working with Windows (Bootcamp)

    I installed Leopard and Windows XP on my Mac Pro. The installation went very smoothly. Only problem I have is that my Apple wireless keyboard and mouse do not work on Windows (frozen) although they work fine on Leopard. I tried a Logitech wireless trackball and it works fine on both Windows and Leopard. Any suggestion?

    Thanks. I upgraded from Tiger and downloaded Bootcamp from Leopard Installation disc ( I did not have a beta version ). I then installed Windows XP SP2 ( brand new, just bought for that purpose ). Wonder if Mac wireless keyboard and mouse are compatible with Window. Everything else work beyond my expectation.
