How can I open ANY file on my PC. Used to use File Open filename
Have Firefox 32.0.3.
How can I open any file on my computer directly from firefox now?
I used to just click on File>open>(filename) ie any of my Open Office files,
Notepad files, or any other file on my PC. Don't seem to have this ability
with the new menu icon, or am I missing something.
hello cormact, you can customize the firefox interface and put the open file button into the firefox menu: [[Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars]]
or you can always open it with the keyboard shortcut ctrl+o....

I have iPhone 4s, and using latest iOS. When I try to open any link from Twitter or Facebook, it goes to open some wrong webpage. My iphone seems to be infected or suffering from some spyware or malware. How can I remove this wrong link opening ? Please help me to resolve...
I think the McAfee suite will do the trick when I pay them a one-time fee of $69 or $179 for a year for unlimited support.
Your call of course but IMO a waste of money. Please read this first:
There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac has NOT been infected by a virus, it may have another security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.

How can I get my time machine to allow me to recover files again?
After upgrading MBA to OS X, the time machine still backs up the files; but, I'm not able to navigate within the time machine or select any folders or files for restore.
I've searched and can not find a solution to the problem that's being encountered.Yeap that all makes sense now.
Do you only have the current backup showing in the TM display?? Won't it fill in the rest?
Over wireless are you waiting for the indexing to finish.. ??
Previous backup may not show for a couple of hours.
Long short of it.. Mavericks version of TM is a pain.
Sometimes it is easier to completely ignore the TM backup and do the restore manually.
I have posted the details here. See if this helps.

How can I possible lose my entire photo library/ referenced master image file if I have downloaded all my images directly onto Aperture?
CeliaJane, you need to distinguish between the Aperture Library and the Aperture Application.
Aperture stores your images in a database, and it is this database that we have to find and probably to repair, not the application (hopefully). And since you do not see any images, I suspect that Aperture created a new, empty Aperture Library,and you are now viewing this empty library. Usully the library sits in your Pictures fiolder.
Look into your Pictures folder, if you see a file with a colorful icon with three pictures, called something.aplibrary, as shown above. And also enter ".applibrary" into the "Spotlight" searchfield in the upper right corner of your screen. If you have more than one Library, you should be able to find them this way.
The largest file you find will probably be the correct library.
When you have found the correct file called aperturexxxx.aplibrary, try to open it in "First Aid" mode.
Select the Library and press down "command" and "option" key at the same time, while you double click the library.
Now the First Aid dialogue should appear:
Select: Repair Permissions" and see if you can open the Library again. If it did not help, try the other two options in turn.

How can I allow a user (client) to choose a local image file (on his hard d
How can I allow a user (client) to choose a local image file (on his hard drive) and modify it using an applet from his browser ? I am trying to develop a web page that enables the user to choose an Image file, manipulate the image using a java applet, and display the results.
Using Java�s �JFileChooser� does not work when called from a browser, probably due to security privileges issues. On the other hand, I can choose and upload any file using a JavaScript form:
<FORM METHOD="POST" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="process.asp">
<INPUT TYPE=FILE NAME="file1"><BR>
�
It seems that I can choose an image file with a Java script form and process an image with an applet. How can I choose a file AND process it locally ?
(I do not wish to upload the file to the server using JavaScript form and then back to the client�s applet for processing since it will be a tremendous waste of resources).
Will appreciate any solution.
Thanks !

You can do this if you sign the applet... -
How can detect and remove scanned white pages in an OCRd pdf file?
How can detect and remove scanned white pages in an OCRd pdf file?
Acrobat does not support an automated way of doing this directly. You can
remove completely blank pages (pages that don't have any "marking
objects"), but a scanned page does contain an image, so Acrobat won't help
you here. There are a number of 3rd party applications and plug-ins
available. Try a Google search for
remove blank pages from scanned
pdf<http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=removeblankpagesfromscanned+pdf&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8>
This will bring up a few different solutions.
Another way is to use JavaScript to find text. You say that these documents
are OCRed, so if you have a blank page, it should not have any text on it.
With some JavaScript, you can identify pages that don't contain text. This
may however fail if you have a page that contains just e.g. a photographic
image. There won't be any text, but the page is certainly not blank.

I can't enter any values in JTextField after loading the flash files.
Hi to all,
In my application I have two panels. One panel has JTextField and another panel i loaded flash files.
The flash files are build by CS4. I'm using JDIC to load the flash files. While open the application i loaded flash file and I try to enter any input in the textfiled, but I can't. After minimize and maximize the application I can enter the values. This problem happens only after I change the jre version from 1.6 to 1.7.
While loading flash files I'm getting the below exception.
org.jdesktop.jdic.init.JdicInitException: java.io.IOException: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect
at org.jdesktop.jdic.init.JdicManager.initBrowserNative(Unknown Source)

pls give me a solution.

How can I organise the program dashboard the way that it does not open automatically and very quickly other programs?
Thanks for an answer
Reinhard Voegele
SwitzerlandIf you hold down the option key while in dashboard you can close many of the programs.
To disable it from opening automatically, or unintentionally:
1) go to System preferences -> mission control.
2) Deselect any mouse shortcuts
3) Remove it from hot corners, if it is active. -
How can I set the maximum number of restarts for my PDF files?
I want sent my PDF to a friend,but I just allow him see it only twice.
How can I set the maximum number of restarts for my PDF files?
My software edition is Acrobat XIn the old days when PDFs were only opened on desktops and only in Acrobat or Reader, scripting could fake security features and people were generally convinced. As there are so many ways to open a PDF without scripts ever being run (from mobile devices to in-browser display, or simply opening the file in Illustrator), none of that works anymore.

Unless you're trying to tether your phone to your computer or create a personal hotspot, it won't pair with your computer by bluetooth. File transfer by bluetooth is not supported. So, you can quit trying unless you're trying to tether.
