HT4836 duplicate finder context menu items Mountain Lion

I paid money to upgrade to 10.8.2 Is it a bug-or-feature? I have upgraded all my apps I purchased though iTunes. I get 2-Opera, 2-Pages, 3-TextWrangler, 3-xCode, items in my Finder Context menu. I need to Remove (maybe add items later). Where is the OSX documentation to do things a PC-Mac-Hybrid Programmer like me needs to. Does Apple provide any real, reliable documentation or just hit-or-miss help-yourselves-communities.

Nothing in that folder. And nothing in the left finder frame regarding Blue Harvest...To clarify, I am talking about when in Finder and select a folder and then right click for the pop up menu with 'Open, Move to Trash, Get Info,...,Clean Using Blue Harvest..."

Remove or Hide context menu item "Add More Items..."

Hi,
I'm trying to edit UserChrome.css to remove or hide the context menu item "Add More Items..." that you find under the sidebar menu.
Thanks.

Firefox doesn't come with this item, so it must be added by an extension.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

TableView Context Menu Item shows up when run on Java 8 until update 5 but not on later ones

The code below runs as its name says on Java 8 update 5 but not on later ones:
public class TableViewShowingOnlyAnAppendContextMenuItemIfRowIsEmptyElseDeleteIsIncluded extends Application {
 private final TableView<Name> table = new TableView<>();
 private final ObservableList<Name> data = FXCollections.observableArrayList(new Name("Jacob"),
 new Name("Isabella"), new Name("Ethan"), new Name("Emma"), new Name("Michael"));
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 launch(args);
 @Override
 public void start(Stage stage) {
 TableColumn<Name, String> column = new TableColumn<>("Name");
 column.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory<>("name"));
 table.getColumns().add(column);
 table.setItems(data);
 ContextMenu contextMenu = new ContextMenu();
 contextMenu.getItems().add(new MenuItem("append"));
 table.setContextMenu(contextMenu);
 table.setRowFactory(tableView -> {
 TableRow<Name> row = new TableRow<>();
 row.contextMenuProperty().bind(
 Bindings.when(Bindings.isNotNull(row.itemProperty()))
 .then(showOnlyAppendContextMenuItemIfRowIsEmptyElseIncludeDelete())
 .otherwise((ContextMenu) null));
 return row;
 Scene scene = new Scene(table);
 stage.setScene(scene);
 stage.show();
 private ContextMenu showOnlyAppendContextMenuItemIfRowIsEmptyElseIncludeDelete() {
 ContextMenu rowMenu = new ContextMenu();
 ContextMenu tableMenu = table.getContextMenu();
 if (tableMenu != null)
 rowMenu.getItems().addAll(tableMenu.getItems());
 rowMenu.getItems().add(new MenuItem("delete"));
 return rowMenu;
 public static class Name {
 private final SimpleStringProperty name;
 private Name(String name) {
 this.name = new SimpleStringProperty(name);
 public String getName() {
 return name.get();
 public void setName(String name) {
 this.name.set(name);
Can help me find the error in the code? Or if there is none, is this a regression that should be submitted? As of now, all the PCs in use have 8u5.
Thanks in advance.

pasted below:
The fix is to create new menu items that are copies of the ones in the table's context menu:
private ContextMenu showOnlyAppendContextMenuItemIfRowIsEmptyElseIncludeDelete() {
ContextMenu rowMenu = new ContextMenu();
ContextMenu tableMenu = table.getContextMenu();
if (tableMenu != null) {
for (MenuItem item : tableMenu.getItems()) {
MenuItem rowItem = new MenuItem(item.getText());
rowItem.setGraphic(item.getGraphic());
rowItem.setOnAction(item.getOnAction());
rowMenu.getItems().add(rowItem);
rowMenu.getItems().add(new MenuItem("delete"));
return rowMenu;

How to change the default position of context menu item? (C#)

Hi,
I have included a calendar context menu item with my Outlook Addin. But by default, its positioned at the last as shown in the picture below:
I need a way to make it as the fourth item instead of last one. Also, I want set an icon for the same. How can I do that?
Appreciate if you can give some sample examples.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks Prasad

Hello Prasad,
The
Customizing Context Menus in Office 2010 article in MSDN describes the basics.
You can specify the IdMso value of the built-in control after/before you need to insert your own:
<button id="MyBtn" label="MyButton" insertBeforeMso="OpenSelectedItems" />
See
Office 2013 Help Files: Office Fluent User Interface Control Identifiers
for IdMso values.

Create an context menu item to open a file on a specific display

Hello,
I have an external display connected to my MBP, but I don't always need to use it so it's not always on. I'd like to have a way to open a file (or application) on a specified display on a case by case basis. I know that I can assign an application to open on a specific display by right-clicking on the app in the dock and selecting options->assign to. The problem with this is that it's a global change. When I'm working on school work, I usually like to have reference material (pdfs, wepages, etc) open on the external display while I'm working in Word on the MBPs monitor.
What I'd like to be able to do is right click on the file (or app) and use a context menu item to open the item on a specific display. Does anyone know of an automator action/applescript/terminal command to create a context menu item like this?
Thanks.

I use "Open Terminal Here" script for that:

"Send link..." context menu item does not launch the mail client

This was working in Firefox 12 but with the latest update to Firefox 13.x no mail client is launched (mine is Thunderbird) when context menu item "Send link..." is clicked.
'''I have tried this with all addons disabled''' but the same problem is occurring.
Does it happen for you? If not, how could I solve it?
I will report as a bug if others have this problem.
Thanks.

I changed the network.protocol-handler.external.mailto setting in about:config to the default value (true) and that seemed to fix it.
I don't know what changed it before though.

Is it possible to change "link" context menu items' order (I want "open in new window.." be the first) ?

I made an upgrade FF from v3.6.xx to v17.0.x and found that "Link" context menu items' order is not the same.
v3.6 menu looks as following: 1."Open Link in new Window", 2."Open Link in new Tab",
v17.0 menu items' order is opposit 1."Open Link in new Tab",2."Open Link in new Window",
All other items' position are uninteresting for me.
How to swap this two upper items in "link" context menu?

Both ways are useful:
* Menu Editor [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/]
'Drag-n-drop' in editor window is working.
* Editing "userChrome.css" [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/791244?page=2#answer-161497 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/791244?page=2#answer-161497] .
For my Windows XP path looks: "C:\Documents and Settings\%account%\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\%random_name%\chrome\userChrome.css".

Font menu in Mountain Lion´s Keyboard Viewer?

I lost track of the font menu in Mountain Lion´s Keyboard Viewer. Where did the font menu go?

Hi,
Do you mean this ?
That's the Character Viewer turned on in System Preferences > Language and Text > Input source tab.

Looking for a 'view link target source' context menu item

I'm looking for a 'view link target source' context menu item.
I often open listings of servers' directories; they can include direct links to code files (*.py , *.pl, etc). When I click them directly, I'm asked to open them with an external editor which is not what I want to do; I want to view those files source inside of Firefox. I currently have to
# right-click those links,
# copy link location,
# type "view-source:" in the Location bar,
# paste the copied URL,
# click Go.
This gets time-consuming with the large amount of URLs I need to open.
It's not a native feature for Firefox and a search at [http://addons.mozilla.org AMO] didn't come up with anything useful, for me at least.

Hello,
particularly, I performed the following steps:
1. I created a SC in the local repository, which matches the SC of the track.
2. I moved the exisiting DCs to the SC created in step 1.
3. Now, I created new DCs in the SC in the track.
4. I deleted all .project files from the local DCs.
5. I copied all source files from the local DCs to the new track DCs.
6. I checked-in these changes to the track.
Kind regards
Alexander

Reusable Context Menu Item - Web Template Termination

When I insert a Context Menu Item that has been saved as a resuable web item the web template teminates with the following error when it is executed.
The following error does not occur if I use a Context menu item - only if I use a resuable context menu item. We are on SP10 for both front and back end.
Does anyone have a similar problem?

Hi
Just to close the loop on this problem:
This is my final reply from SAP.
"Dear Customer,

If you want to a more usefull explanation of what to do and save your time scratching around the Software Distribution Center I would recommend referring to OSS note 1023623 and 1011241.
I hope this helps anyone else facing the same problem.
