How to (re) take fullscreen when AIR app is restored from dock/task bar?

Porting an AS3 app to AIR -- learning AIR as I go.
Switched to AIR because we need to minimize our app to taskbar/dock -- works nicely.
But when I listen for Event.ACTIVATE and then try to NativeWindow.maximize(), it doesn't work.
Found the bug thread with the workaround (http://forums.adobe.com/message/3251136), which is to listen to the display stage change and if the current window stage is NORMAL then to maximize.
stage.nativeWindow.addEventListener(NativeWindowDisplayStateEvent.DISPLAY_STATE_CHANGE, onDisplayStateChange);
public function onDisplayStateChange(evt:NativeWindowDisplayStateEvent):void
     if (evt.afterDisplayState == NativeWindowDisplayState.NORMAL)
     stageDetails();
Is this still best option?
Also, when I maximize() using the above technique on the Mac the menubar is still visible.  How to get back to fullscreen?
Thanks!

Alright, Superduper app on the backup drive allows me to launch SD, however, when I select the copy from drive (my backup) to copy to the copy to drive, the laptop HD, I find that the Laptop HD is grayed out.
I dragged and dropped SD to the Laptop and then launched and received the same result, the Laptop HD is still grayed out.
My SD says at the bottom of the window, Unregistered, but it was registered on my laptop before the OS install.
So i am I right that I have to get my network working, then register SuperDuper again, then see if I can select the Laptop HD as the destination drive for moving the apps over to?

  • How do I get Firefox to open on the desktop from the task bar

    When I click on the icon in the task bar, there is a streak off to the right of the screen. Another click and it streaks back to the icon. It will not show on my desktop. I used it one day, shut down and the next time I opened, I had this problem. Everything is on Firefox and I can't use it???

        imsarah18,
    Hmm that's definitely odd! How long have you been using the application on your phone? Do the messages show up on your phone?

    Hi All, how do you create bookmarks when you create a PDF from word, rather than having to individually copy from a pdf and create bookmarks?

  • I backed up my bookmarks to an external drive, rebuilt my system, and now when I try to restore from that file, I get "unsupported file type" How can I restore from this file?

    I backed up my bookmarks to an external drive, rebuilt my system, and now when I try to restore from that file, I get "unsupported file type" How can I restore from this file?

    Make sure that the backup file with the bookmarks has the correct file extension: .html for a HTML backup and .json for a JSON backup.<br />
    You can check that via the right-click context menu of that file and open the Properties.<br />
    If you are not sure about the file type then you can open the file in Firefox via "File > Open File"<br />
    A JSON backup will show as one long text line without line breaks and a HTML backup as a web page with clickable links.<br />
    A JSON backup starts with: {"title":"","id":1,"dateAdded":<br />
    An HTML backup starts with: <nowiki><!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1></nowiki>
    You may need to add quotes ("") around the name to rename the file to the correct file extension.

  • HT2476 when an app is purchsed from apple Ipad shouldn't it automatically go to IPhone apps too?

    When an app is purchased from Apple Ipad shouldn't it automatically go to my Apple Iphone too??

    It will only stay connect to wifi if your phone is connected to a power source.
    Other wise when the phone goes to sleep it will disconnect from wifi, until it is awake again.

    i bought my iphone 4 about a year ago and just decided to upgrade it to ios5 just recently. My phone restored to to its factory settings and when I clicked continue restore from back up it is now asking a backup password which i dont remember setting up one. I am currently using a windows vista PC. How can I retrieve the password or restore all my old data into the new OS. I have been reading blogs about the same situation and is it true that it is one of apple's bugs?

    It is NOT a bug.  You provided a password.  If you can't remember it, you can't restore your phone from backup.  Very simple.

  • I just got a new iPhone 6 but when I did the restore from backup of my old iPhone 4; none of my pictures were there and almost all of my calendar was missing. Can anyone help?

    Hi, I just bought an iPhone 6, 64GB and had everything ready to do the "restore from backup" from my old iPhone 4 8GB. It kept stopping and I'd have to start over from the beginning. When I finally got it to do something with the help of my provider(who had walked me thru from the beginning anyway); I figured I was all set. Then I went to see my pics to use one for my lock screen and there were NO PICTURES AT ALL and only part of my calendar came over. I'm missing a lot of future appointments that I know are set up. I made sure not to wipe out my old one yet; as I will have to since I did the trade in plan; so I still have my old iPhone 4 and it has everything in it, in addition to having the backup on two computers in the house.
    I also tried syncing it after the restore since things were missing, but that didn't work either.
    I would appreciate any help so I can use my phone and get going with it.
    Thanks!

    Did you choose the wrong back up? There should be a drop box when you go to "Restore from Back up" in iTunes and your iPhone is plugged in, on the Summary page. Choose the correct back up. If you can't find one, and you still have your device, back up your iPhone 4 again and then choose that back up. Or check for an old iCloud back up if you have one.

    Can you restore that JSON backup in a new profile?
    Did you make sure that it is really a JSON backup and that there is no missing or hidden other file extension?
    A JSON backup starts with: {"title":"","id":1,"dateAdded"
    A HTML backup starts with: <!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1>
    You can try if you can restore that JSON backup in a new profile.
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems
    See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
    Please for administration of this support site, make possibility to quote someone's answer, on this way is dificult to answer somebody who wrote some suggestion!
    No, i can't restore JSON backup in new profile, even on fresh installed OS XP SP3, with fresh installation of latest version of firefox!
    MAN I TOLD YOU 10X IT'S 200 % JSON BACKUP FILE!!! I'M NOT IN IT FROM YESTERDAY, I WORK IN IT 12 YEARS!!!
    I tried restoring json backup in new profile, but nothing, i couldn't restore, cause that stupid error from screen shot which i posted again appears !
    Man i'm not totally noob i repeat 2nd time here, and normally that i know to create new profile, and that i tried that, but that didn't help!
    I can't believe that FIREFOX has not good support team, and doesn't care for yours users, this will not give me more reason to use in future firefox
    like borwser, if i don't have good support, and when i have problem like this, to loose all my very important bookmarks and passwords on them, and
    firefox support won't to help me to solve my problem!
    If somebody from firefox support team read this, i can give you Remote desktop access to my computer to try solve this problem, like other serious company
    like HP, Dell , etc. give remote desktop support to their users!
    Corel are you from firefox support team? Please don't write same suggestions, cause i know to read, and i understand well if you write once some suggestion!

  • Had to replace my 64gb.  When I go to restore from the old one to the new one it says the Ipod touch refused the request.  What do I do now?

    How do I get my new ipod touch to restore from the one I had to replace.  It says the ipod refuses to allow the transfer and I have no idea what to do.  I have rebooted the computer and turned the touch on and off again.  Can someone please help me with this?  Just as a note the one I am replacing wouldn't sync and more and even though it had been plugged into the computer all night and the battery pictured said it was fully charged the battery symbol was not registering.  Thank you for any help you can give me.

    See if placing the iPod in recovery mode will alow you to restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
