I can't open a second playlist window in iTunes 11!? And no double-clicking the title bar to minimize to dock?!

Please tell me I'm overlooking something. These are two functions I use all the time. Really quite bummed about my inability to open a second playlist window, as I manually manage my playlists and I'm frequently grabbing chunks of songs and transfering to other playlists, but with some of the playlists being 1,000 songs long, simply dropping a handful of songs over the playlist name in the left column results in all the songs being at the end of the very long playlist. Not what I want.
Thanks for any light you can shed on this!

Thanks for the reply.
However, I don't understand your answer.
To refresh my memory, I just now selected a jpg. image and opened it with PSE 10. When PSE 10 opened, there was my image, ready to be worked with. However, when I repeated the exact same thing with with PSE 11, PSE 11 opened a blank page and I had to go to the Open menu and reopen my image. I don't understand why this extra step is required with PSE 11.
The screen shot you suggested means nothing to me in post http://forums.adobe.com/message/4876725#4876725 as I've no idea where it comes from or what I'm looking at.
Can you provide further details?
Thanks.

When I double-click the tab bar, FF4 just resizes the window but does not open a new tab

When I double-click the Tab Bar, FF 4.0 just resizes the window but does not open a new tab. It happens when Menu Bar is disabled (not ticked).

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] 
 
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. 
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions. 
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

When I am on a phone call and I double click the button to go to my home screen, then open another application (usually my calendar program, Calengoo), my screen goes blank and I am not able to return to either the app, the phone, or the home screen.

When I am on a phone call and I double click the button to go to my home screen, then open another application (usually my calendar program, Calengoo), my screen goes blank and I am not able to return to either the app, the phone, or the home screen. If I am speaking to a person, if they hang up then I am back to the phone application. If I'm leaving a message, I am unable to return to the phone screen to end the call, and have to wait until the other phone hangs up. I'm also unable to switch back and forth to look at my calendar if I'm calling someone about scheduling. This has only started happening since the most recent iOs update. I run into situations similar to this about once per day during the work week, as I use my phone is this manner quite often. While not life altering it is quite frustrating. Can anyone here help me figure out a way to avoid this? If it helps, I have noticed a general downgrade in overall performance starting two system updates ago (apps opening more slowly, closing unexpectedly more often, etc.). I have an iPhone 3GS with the latest OS update.
Thank you for any help or suggestions,
Chris

How can I make double clicking the space bar to make a period less sensitive

Hi! When I double click the space bar, it makes a period, which I love. What drives me crazy is that it thinks I'm double clicking the space bar quite frequently, so it'll insert a period in the middle of the sentence. How can I make my space bar less sensitive? I know that I can turn off the period shortcut, but I would prefer to leave it on, just with a less sensitive keyboard setting. Help!

It sounds like the space key is getting worn out. You may need to get the device exchanged under warranty if it's less than a year old.

Double-click a title bar to won't open or hide in Mountain Lion

I can not get my windows to open or hide with double-clicking like I've been doing for years (new computer). I have the double-click a window's title bar to minimize selected in the dock, still not working. Please help, driving me nuts. I'm running Mountain Lion 10.8.5

The preference has been moved in Mountain Lion. It is now System Preferences>Dock>Double click a window's title bar to minimize

Option to collapse windows by double-click to title bar only, NOT minimize into dock?

A double-click to a window's title bar did, in former incanations of the Mac system, result in a collapse of the window to title bar only. Currently, it seems that this option is gone? All I find results in "minimize to the dock".
Is there a hidden option?
Or is there third-party software that adds back this feature?

I was a bit "perplex" about the sensitivity that the term "iOSification" has caused, so I needed a little time to think about that.
From my point of view, the removal of the "collapse a window to the title bar only" function is a feature that fits very well to the wide screen format that we have today. It IS something that was and is (would be) useful on a 27'' screen, and I think it is reasonable to blame the "iOSification" (that is, the attempt to unify the user interface on very small and "real" screens) for the removal of this feature.
I am using Macs since the IIfx (with System 6). It might be that the term "iOSification" fits better to other "back the the Mac" changes to MacOS, but it describes a general attitude that I do start hating.

I can't open Creative Cloud in Windows 7. I get nothing -- not even the blank window.

It's worked fine until yesteday. Initially it only opened the white window and I followed many suggestions on this forum, renamed OOEB, used CC Cleaner, reinstalled, deleted opm.db. Now it is worse — it will not even open the blank window. I get the spinning circle for a few seconds and then it stops. If I watch the task manager I can see it try to load and then it doesn't. Help please.

Hey Paul,
I have just been chatting with Adobe and I have resolved the situation on my computer.
Open up Run and enter %localappdata%/adobe/ and hit ok. Delete OOBE and AAMupdater folders.
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe and delete OOBE and Adobeapplicationmanager folders. If another program is not allowing you to delete open up task manager and end these processes AAM updater, AAM notifier, Adobe crash demon, CEF helper, IPC broker, Coresync then try deleting.
Now go to the location: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe and delete the Adobe Creative Cloud folder. If you cannot delete, try renaming the folder to Adobe Creative Cloud2.
Now download the Application Manager from here Adobe - Adobe Application Manager
Install it and let it do its updates. Once it is done the Creative Cloud program window should open.
Hopefully it works for you.

Why can I no longer open a PE image directly in PE 11 by simply double clicking the image?

In contrast to previous versions, for whatever reason, I cannot open a PhotoShop Elements image directly by simply 'double clicking' on the image. When I do this with PE 11, PE 11 opens blank and I then have to go to the Open menu and find the image I want to open (the very image I 'clicked' on in the first place)? Why this extra time consuming step?
Thanks,
Dale

Firefox window is not shown and not even in the tasks bar, but there is a process running in the task manager

Clicked on the Firefox icon , but window did not appeared, checked in the Task manager, there is a process running with firefox.exe, and could not see any icon in the task bar adjacent to start button

I discovered that when the "Firefox is already running . . . ." message pops up I can fix it by doing the following [note: I get the same message for the Thunderbird e-mail program too] : 1. I open 'TASK MANAGER" and click on the "Processes" tab. 2. Next I scroll down until I see Firefox.exe *32 in the leftmost column (or Thunderbird. exe *32 if the message came up there), highlight that line by clicking on it and then click on the "end process" button on the right side on the bottom. 4. A pop-up window will come up but ignore its message and click on the "end process" button in the pop-up window. The program should then start the next time you click on the icon..
While that saves the need to restart your PC to fix the problem, I have yet to find any information as to the reasons for those two processes to show up in the first place. I'm running the 64 bit Win 7 Professional and do not know if that has something to do with those two processes running from time to time or not. The message comes up often but not all the time and I haven't been able to pinpoint any action on my part where the message comes up if I do '''X '''or the message never comes up when I do '''Y''' before closing Firefox or Thunderbird.

My computer opens to Babylon search instead of Mozilla/Google and I have lost the tool bar at the top of the screen....favorites, file, etc.

I downloaded a program to convert currency called Babylon. Asked if I wanted it to be my search engine and I said no. After using the program I decided to uninstall. Now when I open Mozilla Firefox, it opens to a Babylon search page and my tool bar at the very top of the screen where I click on File, Tools, Favorites is gone. What can I do?

I only could change it by going to "about:config" page (type it on the address bar) and changing there like suggested here:
http://www.clickonf5.org/software/change-default-search-engine-firefox-browser/6862
I searched for "babylon" and changed the links and titles to google

HP Envy dv4t (Windows 8) can't pick up Dell's (Windows Vista) iTunes library through home sharing, but the Dell can pick up HP's

I just got an HP Envy dv4t and it runs windows 8. My desktop, which is a Dell windows vista has all of my music on it. I'm trying to use home sharing between the two, but my HP won't pick up my dell's library, but my dell will pick up my HP's. I've tried everything imaginable and still no luck. At first, my HP would pick up my Dell library but it wouldn't load. Now it doesn't even have the library under Home Sharing. Please help!

I have been having exactly the same problem with my Fujitsu vista running desktop and my new Toshiba running windows 8

Yesterday i installed the firefox 6.0 on my windows 7 computer. When i double-click the mozilla icon, it doesn't start. I opened the task manager and noted that the process "firefox.exe" appears and desappear after 5 seconds. I tried to start mozilla in safe mode but the problem remains. The only way to use mozilla in my computer is restarting the windows in safe-mode. Last thing: i already tried to reinstall the program. Please help me!

Can't drag windows around using the title bar-CS4

I just upgraded to CS4 at work last week and I'm already regretting it. Firstly, using two monitors, CS4 must like my graphics card becasue as soon as I open a document and it begins to render the window, the main monitor loses it's signal and cuts off. So I have to hard shut down and make my 2nd monitor the main one, open CS4 and a file on that monitor, then make it the 2nd monitor and pass it over to my real first monitor with a file open and make that monitor the main one again. Added to that, randomly, files will open as tabs even though I have the option unchecked in prefs. I hate tabs, I want my windows floating. But I digress.
My current issue is the file windows are not movable using the title bar. I can expand/contract every side grabbing the edge, but clicking, holding and dragging any of the title bar is ineffective. I can drag to tab to undock it, but once floating, the title bar is non-funtional for grabbing. I can also double click on it to tab, just not to drag.
I use a mac at home and thankfully Adobe hasn't forced the edge to edge palette background on that platform. On the mac we get a 'classic view' or something that does away with the desktop blocking grey window background. Seriously, I can't stand the full screen look. Why can't windows have that option to have just the menu bar, palettes and file windows allowing the desktop to be visible? /rant

A new video card is often a good idea if yours is over 2 years old. Even the modern "budget" (e.g., ~$100) cards are hugely powerful nowadays.

After installing FF4 on 2 computers (both Win7Ultimate), one places tabs in the title bar, the other below it; how can I get both to place tabs in the title bar?

I have the same options selected on each computer, both have "Tabs on top" selected.
The one I am using now has a double-height title bar, with the Firefox botton on the top left, and tabs below it also on the left.
The right side of the title bar is blank (semitransparent) space.

Found the problem - on one computer, I run Firefox maximised, and Tabs go into the title bar.
On the other, Firefox runs in an unmaximised window, and tabs sit below the title bar.
This seems very silly.
Hey, developers, how about keeping the tabs in the title bar all the time? This is a good feature spoilt by this quirk.
How about changing it for the next update?

How can I open a second window in iTunes?

When I see some albums in the the iTunes Store I want to check whether I have some of the songs already. The Search function in the Store only refers to the store and not to my Library. So how can I open a second window in iTunes (one with the Store and one with my Library) to make it easier to compare?
Thanks

My understanding it that was removed from iTunes recently (I still run iTunes 7.5 from 2007), so no, not unless you downgrade iTunes (which is not easy). You can send feedback to Apple about reinstating it but I have yet to see Apple reinstate something that appeared to have been deliberately removed from its software, despite vociferous complaints on this forum.
