How fix lost dialog box for typing in wanted web site url after installing security update 20110811165603 into Mac OS 10.6 snow leopard today 6.04.2011.

Today, was prompted to install new security update. Did so. Now when click on + to open new tab the words New Tab appear in the tab. But, no dialog boxes appear to type in wanted new URL and no google dialog box appears in the tab area.
Every thing was fine before installed this new security update 20110811165603 into Mac OS 10.6 snow leopard computer.

Thanks for your reply and sorry for the delayed response - have been away for a few days over the holidays.
I understand your point about backups and disk permissions. I do have a back up copy and will adopt using the 'verify disk' step in future; so, for me the loss shouldn't amount to any more than the time I have spent, as frustrating as that is. However, I think the point I'd like to make is that doing a disk permissions check is fine for those like me [or others on this forum] since I work in a hi-tech industry, and have worked in a Unix/Linux environment for the last ~20 years so understand about permissions etc. , but I know people with Macs for whom the key advantage is that the they largely 'manage themselves' seamlessly. So, if the verify step is simply a pushbutton check-then-repair step and omitting it can lead to such fatal errors, then why can't it be built into the update script as the first automatic step ? What I mean is; my computer reached this unusable state simply by pressing 'ok' on a planned update, so to the average-Joe user it looks like a 'stop and catch fire mode'.
For info: I have now used Disk Warrior, which is reporting a disk malfunction, but can recover the user data. It seems to be a remarkable coincidence though, because there were no system problems exhibited before the update.

After installing security update 10.6.8 I've seen dialog boxes asking me if I will permit certain root processes, e.g. configd, to receive unsolicited messages from the internet. What are the consequences of denying these requests?

After installing security update 10.6.8 last night I've seen dialog boxes asking me if I will allow incoming network connections to certain root processes, e.g. configd. I didn't see these dialog boxes prior to installing 10.6.8. How do I make informed decisions? In other words,
(1) Where can I find 25-word summary descriptions of these processes?
(2) Where can I find discussions of the consequences of granting or denying these requests?
Alternatively (and at some risk of revealing metaphysical doubt) why am I being asked for these permissions? And who expects me to make correct decisions?
I have turned on th standard-issue OS X firewall and am running my system in stealth mode.

How to disable dialog box for ending document display

I have a wf item that has a pdf attachment. Every time the attachment is opened, a dialog box appears stating:
1. Switch to the window of your PC application to display the document
2. Close your document
3. Press "Continue" in the R/3 window
I've tracked it back to screen 0300 in LS025002.
It's only informational and shows up after the attachment has already been opened and closed.
How do I stop this dialog box from appearing?

Those little popup boxes are called tooltips and they are programmed into the page. As iBod says, they cannot be disabled.
There are a couple of things you can do on pages you know have tooltips. There is a time delay of a couple or three seconds before the first tooltip appears. So one way to keep their appearance to a minimum is to make up your mind before you move to an item to click on it and to not hover on items with tooltips for any amount of time. Also, if a series of menus or items all have tooltips, the time delay only exists for the first one. If you immediately move to the next item, the tooltip appears instantaneously. So with such a series, if you move completely off the series, the time delay will be reinstated.

Lost a new mailbox after installing Security update 2008-03- 10.4.11

I was organizing my mail, created a new Mailbox in the Saved Folder and moved a lot of mail to it. Then I saw that there was a Security update available so I closed all apps and applied the security update 2008-03. Now in Mail, the new mailbox and its contents are gone. Help ?!?

Couldn't find it in my Library so I'm guessing rebuilding an index won't accomplish much. Could I have tripped myself up with the name I used? I called it .MDance and had created it, I thought, in Saved, so that it would be at the top of the list. None of my other mailboxes are named that way. It's a naming scheme I've used in Windows (ugh), but it worked to keep a current, important folder at the top of a list.
And, yes, I know better than to apply OS changes without a backup. So fooey on me. Luckily the messages I lost aren't completely critical. Many are still out on Bellsouth so I can 'recover' that way.
I'll be more careful about backups, I just have been so happy with Mac that I got lazy.
Thanks for the suggestion.

How to handle the button "cancel" in a dialog box for displaying views?

Hello!
I ve a question about handling the cancel button in a dialog box for displaying views.
I ve already implemented the dialog box by using the following code:
METHOD eh_onnewqact.
DATA stitle TYPE string.
IF m_popup IS BOUND.
    stitle = cl_bsp_runtime=>get_otr_text( alias = 'ZCC_ICRM/NEW_TASK' )."cl_wd_utilities=>get_otr_text_by_alias( 'ZCC_ICRM/NEW_TASK' ).
    m_popup = comp_controller->window_manager->create_popup(
      iv_interface_view_name = 'ZCC_POPUP_NEWBT/NewQActWindow'
      iv_usage_name = 'CUNewQAct'
      iv_title = stitle
    CALL METHOD m_popup->set_on_close_event
      EXPORTING
        iv_view       = me
        iv_event_name = 'NEWQACT_POPUP_CLOSED'.
ENDIF.
m_popup->open( ).
ENDMETHOD.
My dialog box consists two buttons - cancel and create.
The cancel buttons should close the popup and the create button should create an entity of a specified object. but let us come to the cancel button. I did´nt find any information about implementing an cancel button. So, how should I implement it? I thougt
me->close( ). But that didnt works!
Could u give me further information about that, because my cancel event-handler is empty?
method EH_ONCANCEL_QACT.
endmethod.
After that I would know how my calling view could know that the user pushes the Create Button and how the data of 2 inputfields of the dialog box finds their way to the calling view in order to process this data there?
Thank you very much!

Hi Michael,
thank you for your advice! This problem is solved...
...but I have another issue. Ive implemented 2 editable fields in my popup. The user should fill that fields with context and that context should be processed in the calling view of my popup.
My question is how to transfer these information from my popup to my calling view or method?
I tried the following...
      lv_context_node ?= m_popup->get_context_node( 'QUICKACT' ).
      IF lv_context_node IS NOT INITIAL.
        lv_text = lv_context_node->get_date( attribute_path = '' ).
      ENDIF.
But it doesnt work! The context node object is always empty/initial.
Thank you!
PS: Another possibility could be that the object / node of the calling view is transferred to the pop-up in order to process it there.

How can a dialog box close itself?

I have a dialog box which displays a little form for some extra information. I have some non-standard buttons which are under my control. The form is created as a view in a window which is launched by CREATE_WINDOW.
I want the window to be able to close itself. The concept is easy - get a ref to the window, then call close( ).
But I cannot find a way to get a reference to the window from inside the window.
Here is my current solution which I do not like, but it works.
I create a context node 'POPUP' which has an attribute ME of type ref to if_wd_window.
When I create the window, I do this:
lo_window         = lo_window_manager->create_window( ... )
lr_node = wd_context->get_child_node(   'POPUP'   ).
lr_node->set_attribute( exporting name = 'ME'
                                      value = lo_window ).
lo_window->open( ).
In the window, it gets ME out of the node, and does a lr_me->close( ).
But there is a better way, right? How does a dialog box close itself under program control?
I should add that the dialog box is displaying a view from a used component, so POPUP is defined in the used component and mapped into the context of the using component. I don't think this changes the problem, though.

Hi
Try this following code in method of button you have created for popup i.e method for example ok,cancel etc in the view which you have emebedded in ur window for popup.
Close the popup
DATA:
    lo_api         TYPE REF TO if_wd_view_controller,
    lo_window_ctlr TYPE REF TO if_wd_window_controller,
    lo_popup       TYPE REF TO if_wd_window.
lo_api         = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
lo_window_ctlr = lo_api->get_embedding_window_ctlr( ).
lo_popup       = lo_window_ctlr->get_window( ).
IF lo_popup IS BOUND.
    lo_popup->close( ).
ENDIF.

Print Dialog Box for Addon is not showing in Terminal Server

Dear All,
I have created a addon for Automatic Sales Invoice printing that prints the crystal report directly to the printer bu opening a
print dialog box for printer selection through SDK code.
The Same addon works fine on the server with print dialog box being showing through SDK code.
But while running on Terminal Server , print dialog box is not showing any printer though printers are redirected to that
terminal server.I am not getting whether the problem is in my addon or in the terminal server printer settings.
Please suggest as i need to know the reason urgently.
Thanks
Amit

But while using terminal server , the print dialog box is not getting any printer in the dialog box .That's the major concern for me
is their any way to check that why the printers are not showing in print dialog box.
Thanks ,

InDesign "Save As" dialog box for every operation in INDB book file; updating page numbers, etc.

So I haven't used INDB files in awhile in InDesign, and today was the first time I attempted to adjust an old INDB (created originally with CS5). For every operation of adjusting the book file, such as updating page/section number or adding/removing an INDD file I get a Save As dialog box for each constiuent INDD file. This is quite annoying since the book has lots of INDDs, and I have to click through the tedious save as with each. I previously worked with INDBs in CS5, and never encountered this, there was no need to save each INDD in the book just to update the page numbers. I tried creating a new INDB in CS5.5 thinking that maybe it was because I was working from a file created with an older version of InDesign. Does anyone know if there is a way to suppress the Save As dialog? Another thing I noticed that is supremely frustrating is that this new build of InDesign doesn't default to saving the file in its original location, and I have unwittingly ended up saving files in other places, only to later realize it. I am using InDesign CS5.5 Ver. 7.5.2 on Mac OSX 10.7.3 Any help is greatly appreciated.

It will only happen once (and frankly, what you are doing is a very bad idea).
When you open the old book in CS5, you are converting to the new format. All of the legacy files also need to be converted, even if added to a new book in CS5.5, hence the Save As since ID will not overwrite the old versions until you tell it to (and that's the bad idea). I strongly recommend (though it's too late for any books you've already updated and overwritten) that you either continue to edit in the old version, or that you take the time to open each file in the original version if it's older than CS5, then export to interchange format (.inx or .idml, depending on version), open those files in CS5.5, save with new names so you don't overwrite anything, then add to a new book and proceed.
One of the reasons I recommend this seemingly time-consuming approach is that there are too many reports (another one yesterday) of some sort of problem that pops up late in the editing cycle when converting legacy files to CS5/5.5 by opening them directly and saving. This is a belt and suspenders insurance approach, and is far less labor intensive than starting over, which might end up being your other option down the road if something goes wrong.
