I don't like the way Stacks work.  Anyone else?

If I click and hold on a stack in the dock, the preference menu pops up. To get the stacks to open, I have to click and release -- the stack pops open -- and then click and release on the selection I want. The click-release, click-release is very windows-like. I prefer the 10.4 (and every other Mac OS menu method) of click, then hold the mouse button down, move to the selection and then release the button to choose the item.
I've sent feedback to Apple, but after downloading 10.5.2, I see it's still the same.

Yes -- I've installed 10.5.2. The 'clicking' behavior is still not the same as 10.4. My only beef is that the new way involves more clicking instead of click down, hold and then release on the selection.
I manage some PCs for a client using Windows and it seems that I click the mouse at least double the times I do on a Mac.
It's also possible that I'm not explaining myself clearly.

    That link doesn't tell you how to remove the Panoroma Tab Groups!! My main issue with it is that along my tabs at the top I no longer have the tab to open a new tab. Instead I have to click on the tab groups and then open them and click on an open area in the tab to get a new tab opened!! Is there a way to add that? I don't see that when I go to customize the tool bar as there's no icon to add it, just one to open a new window, which I don't want to do!! Thanks!!

  • Saving multiple records at a time like the way it's done in picklist

    I've to make a form using two T lists like the way it's done in picklist. The user can move elements either one by one or all at a time from one side to another and then save the record.
    I've made the basic thing using two t lists. But i'm unable to write code to save the record.
    What i've done is when the user moves one element from left to right i'm doing NEW RECORD then CREATE RECORD.
    And when the user moves elements from right to left i do DELETE record.
    But it's giving a lot of errors.
    If anybody can help me it would be really great.
    Thanks,
    Abhishek.

    Hi,
    The easiest way to do this is to remove the TList & use multi record text items. U can adjust the border level of the items to have the look & feel of a List.
    while u are using multi-record items u will be having full control of what the user selects..

    "Unlike".  iOS 7 doesnt display well on my 4S. iOS 6.1.3 should still be supported for older hardware.  I think I shall me moving to Samsung Galaxy now.  Was really hoping hte new iphone would get a bit larger.

  • Is there a way I can go back to the iOS 6.0.1? I really don't like the iOS 7

    I really don't like the iOS 7. I want to downgrade a software.

    Downgrading is not supported, as has been said over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

  • Modify the way 'undo' works

    Start a fresh database, import 3 images and go the the Develop module. Move the Temperature slider of the first image far to the right, the Temperature slider of the second image far to the left and the Exposure slider of the third image far to the right. Now select the second image and press CMD/CTRL-z to 'undo'. What happens is, I believe, a bug: The Exposure of the *third* image is returned to its original position but the second image is the one being displayed.

    I tend to ignore Undo other than for undoing *immediate* actions, simply because I can't be sure of what will happen.
    In other words, if I am dragging sliders around on a specific image and realize I don't like the results, I'll use Ctrl+Z to get back to where I was quickly. But if I'm looking at an image I edited even a day ago and I want to revert past actions, I'll ALWAYS use the history so that I can see exactly what I'm doing. If I were to use Ctrl+Z, there is always the chance that I will get confused on my past sequence of events and end up undoing an edit that I didn't want to undo, without seeing its effect.
    Given this, I'd actually prefer it if Ctrl+Z only undid actions to the current selected image(s) SINCE SWITCHING TO THOSE IMAGES. This would prevent it from ever undoing actions to other images without my being aware of it. Basically, it would be a built-in safety valve, forcibly requiring me to use the more deliberative History approach when I want to undo changes to other images.
    But this is just the way I tend to work. I'm not sure anyone would agree with me, or that this would ever be a sensible default behaviour, though.
    As a more general approach (although it's not my preferred implementation), I think Undo should only work in cases where the user can see its effect. This means only undoing the current or selected set of images. Undoing "other" images means that its effect may be invisible, and I don't think that's desirable.

  • I don't like the latest Firefox. Can I keep the old one without problems?

    At work I have v. 3.6.19 and it is asking me to upgrade to 5.0.1. I have a brand-new iMac at home and I installed the newest Firefox just a couple of months ago, so I probably have the 5.0.1. In any case, I don't like the new one's interface. Instead of having separate reload and stop buttons to the LEFT of the url window, there's a single reload/stop button (and it seems smaller than the old ones) attached to the RIGHT of the url window. Since I have a 27" screen on my new computer, it means I have to move the mouse WAY UP TO THE RIGHT to reload a screen, which is hard on my mousing hand. That may sound like nitpicking to you, but I'm finding it to be a problem. Also, the Home button seems to have disappeared. I just don't find the ease of use to be the same as with the one I still have at work. So I guess my question is twofold: 1) can I keep the old version at work and still upgrade the Flash (as it's asking me to do as well)?; and 2) can I put an older version on my iMac at home?
    I used to work in software (although not as an engineer), and in my opinion, newer does not always equal better. A case in point, it used to be easier to return to a previous page using the top toolbar, but as the versions change the function seems to be harder to use.

    Hey paulwisc,
    If you are just unhappy with the location of the Home button, you can move it to any toolbar location that you like. [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/how-do-i-customize-toolbars?s This article] will give you all the steps you need to customize the toolbar.
    Is that the only reason you want to roll back? If you have other reasons, you should consider [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/feedback leaving feedback] for the developers so that they can continue to improve the product.
    If you still want to roll back to a previous version of Firefox, just take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]].
    Hopefully this helps!

  • UNSUPPORTED : The way it works Apache with OC4J via AJPV13 with mod_jk

    RDBMS Version: 8.1.7.x
    Operating System and Version: SUSE Linux 7.2 / Win NT/2k/XP
    Product (i.e., OAS, IAS, etc): 9ias 1.0.2.2 OC4J 9.0.2.0.0
    Product Version:
    JDK Version: 1.3.1
    Error number:
    UNSUPPORTED : The way it works Apache with OC4J via AJPV13 with mod_jk
    We dont want to use the lame and old mod_jserv so we want to use oc4j but in connection with Apache.
    This is like mod_oc4j in the Oracle 9ias Release 2
    This guide is for advanced users !
    Step-by-Step :
    1) get Tomcat 3.3 for linux or nt with Apache module mod_jk
    http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat/release/v3.3/bin/
    2) add mod_jk module to httpd.conf (9ias) and comment all mod_jserv, dms, oproc, ojsp ....
    LoadModule jk_module libexec/mod_jk.so
    Include mod_jk.conf
    3) edit mod_jk.conf
    JkMount /*.jsp ajp13
    JkMount /servlet/* ajp13 JkMount /servlets/* ajp13
    <Location "/WEB-INF/"> AllowOverride None
    deny from all
    </Location>
    3) edit workers.properties
    workers.tomcat_home=/opt/oracle/ias/oc4j/j2ee/home
    workers.java_home=/usr/java
    worker.list=ajp13
    worker.ajp13.port=8009 worker.ajp13.host=localhost worker.ajp13.type=ajp13
    4) edit http-web-site.xml (oc4j)
    <web-site host="localhost" port="8009" protocol="ajp13" display-name="Oracle9iAS Containers for J2EE HTTP Web Site">
    5) start oc4j
    java -verbose -jar oc4j.jar
    6) start apache (look in error_log)
    apachectl startssl
    7) try to request a jsp page or servlet ..
    http://localhost:7777/test.jsp
    8) good luck it works fine .. !!

    Thanks for the tip Mathias, it's always good to see people trying out experimental things with the products.
    We're providing a new module (mod_oc4j) with our Oracle9iAS Release2 product to do this directly from the Oracle HTTP Server (Apache). We've re-written bits and pieces of the module to improve it's performance. Likewise, we've also integrated mod_oc4j with our HA story so it will be notified when new OC4J instances are brought online or if existing ones go down, enabling it to actively route requests around the available OC4J instances.
    Thanks again!

  • Sirius - works on the way to work - doesn't work on the way home

    Looking for some help from this forum because I am getting no where with the folks at Sirius.  For the last 2 months I have not been able to get a signal on my ride home from work downtown Cincinnati to just north of the city. I have no problem with Sirius on the way into work but on the way home it doesn't want to work - I have called Sirius numerous times and they have gone through all the different options - unplugging, new antenna, etc. -and it still does want to work - does anyone have any suggestions of how to get this fixed?

    Right now - the only thing I can think of is "get more data" - Can you reproduce the problem at the same time of day on weekends?  If so, what happens if you drive your morning route in the evening on a weekend?  (To determine if the cause is vehicle orientation/route or time of day).
    And the constellation shouldn't change over a 2 month period - the Sirius orbits are chosen so that they appear in the same exact spot in the sky every day at a given time of day.  HOWEVER, a technical failure on one of the sats could have caused them to tweak the orbits, or there could be something about one of the sats your radio no longer likes.
    Have you tried sending a refresh signal to the radio?  (I assume Sirius has refresh signals like XM does.)
    *disclaimer* I am not now, nor have I ever been, an employee of Best Buy, Geek Squad, nor of any of their affiliate, parent, or subsidiary companies.

    Thanks so much but none of that helped.  It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive.  I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
    Thank you for your help and replying to this.  Guess I made my own issue!

  • HT4623 one day before,i update my iphone5 system,but i really don't like the operation,i want change back to ios6.1.4,what can i do?

    one day before,i update my iphone5 system,but i really don't like the operation,i want change back to ios6.1.4,what can i do?

    OK, I downloaded the utility, but during the installation process I was advised to shut down Outlook, or restart it after installation. I immediately cancelled the installation. Obviously, this thing is going to muck about with Outlook. I don't want anything to be touching or looking at any of my installed program unless I tell it too AFTER I fully understand what it is doing and how to reverse the whole process in case it gets mucked up.
    I looked for a manual or some sort of documentation on the configuration utility, but there does not seem to be any.
    Anyone have a link to program documentation for
    iPhone Configuration Utility 3.6.2  for Windows?
    I find it incredilble that there does not seem to be a stand alone, plug the usb cable in, and make a back up (system image) of an iPhone. After all, the thing seems to be hand held computer. Why not have a simple back up utility? Even the newer phones only have, what, a few GB. Lots of images would fit on an outboard TB disk.
    Then if every thing gets FUBAR, simply restore the phone the the last working image.
    Does no one keep controled squential backups of iPhones and iPads like you should do with any other computer, workstation or laptop that is a serious business tool?
    iTunes for back-up. Does and business seriously do that?
    iCloud? I'd be fired if the boss caught me putting client contact information on 'the cloud' or anything outside my secured hard drives. (Unless we have a specific paid contract for services).
    My company does not even allow wifi in the office. Security begins with a hard wired connection.
    sigh....
