I am having to double click on everything in outlook 2011 to get anything to work.

For some weird reason, I have to double click on just about anything to get it to work in Outlook 2011. For example, if I click once on a folder it does not go to that folder until I click it again. This is annoying in that there are a few things that respond to a single click, so as you are doulble-clicking around you hit one of the things that doesn't require a double-click and end up having to go back 5 steps to fix what you did.
Anyone else see this?

If the downloads are gone, it's possible that Windows is removing the downloads based on security policies set in IE. I realize that sounds strange, but it's related to Firefox's feature of submitting downloads to your virus scanner and marking them as having come from the internet.
To test this theory, you could try disabling the scan feature. I assume you have good "real time" antivirus protection which checks every file saved to your hard drive. (If not, you really should get that, and you can use Microsoft's free [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials Microsoft Security Essentials] for now until you have time to review all the available choices.)
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''scan''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click '''browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone''' to toggle its value.
Firefox now should ignore Windows' download security. Does it change how Windows handles the file?

HT201406 i'm having to double click everything & the slide feature is not working. What's the problem?

i'm having to double click everything & the slide feature is not working. What's the problem? Resetting fixes it for a couple seconds then it goes right back.
i.e. If I go to open my mailbox, i have to 1st select the icon. then double tap it to open. same thing once I get to an email.

At a guess, turn off VoiceOver: Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver. Use three fingers to scroll.

How can I view the content within the message without having to double click on the message. I used to be able to see content of the message alongside it .

How can I view the content of the message without having to double click on it; I used to be able to see content of the message next to it .

Is this in Mail?
You can (I do all the time). The oreview window can be resized by dragging the message list window border - you might accidentally have closed it up

I am having the exact same problem with Windows 7 Professional. Out of the blue, this issue just started a few months ago when running my monthly Windows Backup where I have used a USB drive for the last 3 years, and never ever had this issue before. Most
of the solutions listed on the Microsoft websites and answers deal with
"Restore" functions, not the
"Backup" itself. I have 3 folders being skipped during the backup.
So I went and changed the Backup from "let Microsoft choose files, directories, etc" to "Let me choose". I included the files and folders that were being skipped, and ran the "Backup" again, and got the same error message,
but the files that were skipped the first time were "Backed up" finally. This issue is somehow related to my "Libraries"?
The 3 backup problems are:
Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book Recordings. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book CD Label-Cover Art. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book MP3 Tag Art. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
Did a "checkdisk" - no problems. Ran a program to fix registry - no problems. All updates up to date. I guess I could eliminate these folders from the Backup folders in the
Library, and just choose them under the "Users" locations, and be done with it. But I really want to understand this, and fix it. This is within Windows 7 and may be related to Windows Media Player or
some recent Windows update. Thanks.

In events, only dark squares appear above the title of the event, what do I do to have the pictures appear without having to double click?

I have transferred my pictures to the new mac pro iphoto application. All pictures are present but when I open Events, I get a dark suare box with the event title below. There is no picture in the box. No pictures show when I scroll across the box. If I click on the box, I get a yellowish line around it. Then I double click it and I get a grey page with squares outlined with a broken white line. I double click one of the new squares and a photo appears. I can advance to each of the photos in that event by clicking on an arrow that is located in the upper right corner of the picture on the screen. I cannot get iPhoto to work as it should.
When I click on Faces menu, the program shuts done completely.
HELP PLEASE!

Thank you.
By doing a rebuild of the tumbnails everything came back to normal.

Having to Double-Click Flash Objects in Browser to use

Hello,
Has anyone else experienced the annoying Double-Clicking of
Flash objects in your browser?
In other words, a Flash object will load and play just fine
in my browser, but I have to click it once to activate it then
click again to use buttons.
I'm assuming this might be a security setting for my browser,
but I can't figure it out.
Can anyone assist?

Ok - you really just need to use the search function here -
soon this thread will contain replies
from everyone telling you to search first - because this is
asked literally everyday and often
several times per day - yet, it seems to be the least
searched topic - just google it or search the
forum - been asked and answered several times per day for
months - not flaming, just trying to help
because so often, questions have already been answered here
many times and searching is just plain
quicker.
go here:
http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search?q=group:*flash*&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
(it is the google groups archive of this forum)
and type in "active content"
over 1600 returns.
It is the reult of a Eolas vs Microsoft patent lawsuit that
was top web/tech news just a couple
months ago. Tons of resources on it - search google or
adobe.com or microsoft.com.
good luck

While browsing Firefox, display another htm*file by double-clicking it in Windows Explorer and not getting the erro message "Firefox is already running (etc) "

While browsing the Web with Firefox, I often want to view an htm (or html etc) file that is recorded on my computer, by double-clicking it in my Windows Explorer, hoping it will open automatically a new tab.
When I try this now, I get the error message "Firefox is already running (etc)" .
In my current setup, Firefox is associated with the htm and html file name extensions.
If, instead of double-clicking the filename in the Explorer, I choose the Firefox menu item "Open a file", this works OK.
In old versions of Firefox, double-clicking a filename in the Windows Explorer or File Manager caused Firefox to open a new window every time which was ok.
I have the same problem with Thunderbird, which I have associated with the "eml" file name extension. How can I view a series of recorded ".eml" files with Thunderbird when Thunderbird is already running ? Thank you.

The target field of the desktop shortcut is "D:\C_Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" (no switch)
The system/environment variable MOZ_nO_REMOTE is now 0, changed from 1, but I can see no difference. Maybe I need to restart the system to get a change ?
Thank you.

My iphone 4s has a box around one of the icons and i have to double click on an icon to get anything to work and it won't reset either?

I'm no sure what to do with my phone. I have an iphone 4s that has an outlined box around whatever icon i touch. It won't reset either. It also is working slow too. I have to double click on whatever icon i'm trying to use just to get it to work.

Answered in another thread. Probably you have Voice-Over activated in the Settings...general...Accessibility section.
Triple-click your Home button to toggle it off agin maybe?

How do I change the genre for a specific song? In the past, I just had to double click on the genre field entry. That no longer works.

How do change the title of a song or its genre?

You should be able to edit any of a song's metadata elements (including title and genre) using right-click > Get Info. In the new iTunes 12 dialog, the Genre field should allow you to type in a genre or select from a dropdown (which offers a combination of iTunes' built-in genres + those you've defined yourself):
If you SHIFT right-click > Get Info you can also access the "old style" dialog and enter the genre there.
Are you unable to enter the genre, or having done so is the value held by iTunes not being updated? If the latter, then you may have an issue with the permissions on your media files or the files may be set to read-only.

You can enable Photo Stream (in Settings > iCloud) but only for 30 days and only a max of 1000 photos.
Then what does this mean? It was copied from the kb article that I posted above.
Reducing the size of your Camera Roll backup
If you take lots of photos and videos with your iOS device, you may notice your Camera Roll takes up most of your iCloud Storage backup. To check the size of the Camera Roll backup on your device:
On your Home Screen, tap Settings.
Tap iCloud.
Tap Storage & Backup.
Tap Manage Storage.
In the Backups section, tap your device.
In the Backup Options section, the backup size is displayed under Camera Roll.
To reduce the size of your Camera Roll backup, save your photos and videos locally to your computer with iTunes, and then manually back up your iOS device. If you want to keep your photos and videos on your iOS device, you can turn off Camera Roll in Backup (see the "Deleting backups and turning off Backup for your Device" section above) orpurchase additional storage.
