How can I get pdf files to minimize up into the upper left corner of my Windows 8.1 Pro screen?

Hi -
I have both a laptop and a desktop running Windows 8.1 Pro. When I open a pdf file on my laptop, and I click on the adobe reader icon in my taskbar at the bottom of the screen, the pdf doc is minimized up into the left hand corner of the screen where I can then right mouse click and insert the pdf file left or right of any other document I pull up onto my screen, i.e. I can create side by side windows of the two documents. But if I try the same thing on my desktop and then click on the adobe reader icon, it will not minimize up into the left hand corner. Does anyone now I can get my desktop to do what my laptop is doing since they are running the same OS?
Thank you!

This can be a bug on Mac.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • How do I get rid of this blue circle on the top left corner of my window?

    I had just installed OSX mavericks for my macbook and now whenever I open up firefox there's a weird blue circle in the top left corner of the firefox window.

    The problem appeared today after installing the latest update on MacOS 10.8.5 (which was out for a couple of days/weeks; I don't reboot my system that often). The auto-update of my Firefox is enabled so I don't know exactly when that got upgraded. Current version is 27.0.1. I have the minimalistic theme enabled "Default Mod 28" from http://gpopper.deviantart.com/.
    When I switch to the default theme "Default 27.0.1" from Mozilla, there is no blue circle. When I switch back to the GPopper theme, the blue circle is there again. It is consistently. I would be great to have a Safari-like theme on Firfox, especially for the Bookmarks Toolbar, which is for my preferences too high in the default theme.

  • How can I get a file to copy all of the files in a directory except itself and the source of the copy function will be the directory the final program is in?

    How can I get a file to copy all of the files in a directory except itself and the source of the copy function will be the directory the final program is in? This application must be in Lab View 8.

    you mean something like this (see below)?
    Now you may have to implement code to check if the destination folder exists and to create it, etc.  But if you use the Front Panel Control to select the destination folder, it should be okay.
    Not the best implementation, mind you but you'll get the idea..

  • How do I get rid of yahoo toolbar and get back my orange firefox button in the upper left corner of screen so I can use my stuff again?

    Yahoo toolbar suddenly imposed itself as my log on screen whenever I booted up my computer and clicked on Firefox. Now I can't get to my bookmarks even though it told me that if I activated the new bookmark system it would transfer my old ones. It didn't happen. The toolbar has no bar for typing in a www.http address. I cannot use it and don't want it. I am using Explorer just so I can access my bookmark address, but don't like Explorer. I want my old Firefox screen back that has the little orange button in the upper left corner of the screen. How can I get there? My computer use has been highly curtailed by this unrequested invasion!

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
    If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
    You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.<br />
    If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Menu+bar+is+missing
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    *Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize"
    *Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    *If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

  • How can i get pdf files from my ipad to my pc?

    Please help im so lost, i need to get a pdf file from my ipad to my pc but it doesnt work with workspaces. I really need it for uni.

    If you are running the Adobe Reader app on your iPad you can upload your pdf to .crobat.com and then download it to your laptop
    On your iPad open your PDF in the Adobe Reader app
    Select the save icon in the top toolbar - looks like a doc with a wrench)
    Select 'Save to Acrobat.com'
    Select the 'Get Started' button
    Enter you Adobe ID and password
    Your file should be saved up to Acrobat.com
    Go to your PC
    Launch your internet browser
    Open https://files.acrobat.com/
    Log into Acrobat.com with the same Adobe ID as you used on your iPad
    Your file should be available
    Select the file and select the Download icon
    You can download the file to your hard drive
    Another option is
    Go to you PC
    Launch Adobe Reader
    Select File > Open
    From the Open Dialog select the dropdown arrow beside 'Open from online Account' - select Acrobat.com
    You will be prompted to enter your Adobe ID and Password
    You should then see your PDF in the listings
    Select to open
    Once open you can save to your desktop
    hope this helps

  • How do I get PDF files to *automatically* save as the file name provided by the source?

    When I download a PDF file in Firefox, the file name changes from whatever name source used (e.g, important-report.pdf) to a miscellaneous group of characters (e.g., X2ba5zt.pdf). I often want to save the file using the 'source' name. I realize that can so do by changing the file name, but I would like to know if there is a way to set the default so that the source file name is used.

    I am not seeing that behaviour. If I right-click a link to a .pdf file, I get the file saved with the original filename.
    Maybe one of the settings in about:config controls that?
    pdfjs.previousHandler.preferredAction is a setting that has a value of 4 with my setup. I have no idea what that means, and I could not find any explanation anywhere. You could try using different numbers for that value and see if any make any difference. Why has nobody bothered to explain that setting anywhere?

  • How can I get rid of a small "thread" in the lower right corner of my new 27" Cinema Display?

    I recently acquired a new 27" Cinema display.  Yesterday I noticed a small thread like piece of debris under the glass on the lower right side of the display.  Any suggestions as to how I can get rid of it?  Take it to the Apple Store?  Return it for a replacement (which might have the same issue).

    What version of Pages?
    What instructions? It sounds like you have got the wrong ones and are trying to delete a page in the Thumbnails, which will delete th entire section.
    If you have a blank page in a Word Processing template, it is because there is some text on it, even a return, tab, space or page break:
    Menu > View > Show Invisibles > backspace over whatever it is to get rid of it

  • My "new improved" itunes seems to be missing some key components.  Where is the file button and the others in the upper left corner.

    There is no file or other things in the upper left corner.  Not even a place to upgrade in the future.  I talked to a guy in support today and I told him I was missing that stuff and he helped me navigate better but didn't really help me with the missing elements.  Like why is my phone listed under home share sometimes and othertimes it is not. 

    Right-click a toolbar, untick "menu bar".

  • How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

    How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
    I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document.  When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
    It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
    The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
    Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
    This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

    hi there
    try the vi
    ..vi.lib\platform\browser.llb\Open Acrobat Document.vi
    it uses DDE or the command line to run an external application (e.g. Adobe Acrobat)

  • How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad, How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad

    How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad, How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad

    Yes you can definitely do this. You'll need an app on the iPad that handles PDF viewing and editing. There are many around - two of the best I've seen are GoodReader and PDF Expert.
    In iTunes when you iPad is connected to your PC, go to the Apps tab and scroll down and you'll see the File Sharing section. You can drag files to there to share them to your iPad.
    You could also look at online file sync services like PDF to ePub Maker if you prefer not to have to connect your iPad to a PC

  • How can I get my books that I download from the Library that are WMA files into my I tunes so I can listen to them

    How can I get my books that I download from the Library that are WMA files into my I tunes so I can listen to them. They have a ton of books but I can only listen to them from my windows media player and I wouldlove to download to my I pod but I have tried everything I can think of it they won't go over.  Someone said all I had to do was copy them over and they would convert but I can't even get them to copy.  Thanks.

    Well it started happening AGAIN with my 2nd IPod. No matter what I did, it Itunes would NOT restore it!
    I finally installed Itunes on my hubby's PC at work and managed to get it restored there.
    Apparently, there must be some sort of compatibility issue with the windows version of Itunes and some other piece of software on my pc.
    And one more important thing! I had to follow the instructions in the other thread that talks about how to correctly uninstall itunes and quicktime, in order to completely eliminate ALL traces of my "first" ipod's existence so it wouldn't demand that I restore it.
    I think the software got "confused" and thought when I connected my 2nd ipod, that it was the 1st and that it still needed to be restored.
    Basically, this is just POORLY written and POORLY tested software!
