I want to open a pop-up

I have Snow Leopard and am fully updated on Safari: Safari: Version 4.0.4 (6531.21.10).
Safari will not allow me to open a pop-up at this site. Here's the site: http://ancientfaith.com/. On this page you will see a box titled Music and a button that says "Play in Popup." But when I click on it, it will only open a new tab. The pop-up works fine in Camino; it just won't work in my Safari.
I have Block Pop-up Windows turned off in Safari. I also have Safari configured to open new links in a tab with Command-Click. I have tried unchecking that box in Preference and have tried various key combinations; but no matter what I do, the box opens in a new tab.
Any ideas how I can get that button to open a pop-up window? Are you able to get that button to work in your browser?
TIA.

Thanks, Bee, for the suggestions. Yes, I do have Flip-4-Mac, and Safari is configured as you suggest.
But I think I may have figured out the problem. A while back I configured Safari to open a tab instead of a new window with a single mouse click. I did this by opening Terminal and typing in this command: *defaults write com.apple.Safari TargetedClicksCreateTabs -bool true*.
I imagine that this command is now preventing me from opening a pop-up window. Does that sound likely?

Open a pop up window and display new jsp in it

i want to open a pop up window (from a jsp)when i click a link ,
the opened pop up window is a different jsp where i have to pass an action event to the struts action doing some functionalities and then forward to that jsp.
example:
create.jsp has a link that uses java script to open the pop up.
the pop up should open search.jsp after going to the action.
what needs to be done:
1-open pop up
2-pass action event to the struts action
3-open the new jsp in the pop up

When I want to open a PDF document The box that pops up asking if I want to open or save does not come up and it always saves. I need this changed.

When the window opens to ask if I want to save or not comes up it does so for WORD documents just fine, however, for PDF documents it never asks (it used to). Now it just automatically saves them without asking. I need this changed. I went into applications and changed the setting to always ask but it still is just saving, them no window pops up asking what I want firefox to do with the file like it does with a WORD document. IF I cannot get this resolved I will not be able to continue using firefox. I teach and I have students submitting articles etc in pdf format, I cannot constantly save all pdf files. I just want to open them, review them and then move on. There must be a way to change this so that the window asking what I want firfox to do with the pdf files opens.
thank you,
kkwright

Deleted it, restarted it. tried it again. no change. repeated the whole cycle. no change. thinking about uninstalling and reinstalling, but that won't reallyk change the settings.

I am connected to the internet, but all tabs are closed. Now I want to open a new tab, But Firefox pops-up with "Firefox is already running, but not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system". Does anyone here know how to fix this? Thank´s, BL.
== This happened ==
A few times a week

Firefox is shutting down windows I want to remain open. Example: I am done viewing one window. I click the X to shut the window and it shuts two windows. Every single time, attempt to close one windows, two windows close. Lately, I have been opening several windows with nothing but google search, just so it will shut that window and not something else I want to remain open. I could understand this if I was using tabs, but I am not. This has been going on for over two weeks. I don't like going back to history to open a window, I did not want closed in the first place. Isn't that what 'Windows' is all about? Any ideas?

My itunes is acting weird it has this sheild on it and a pop up appears everytime i want to open it, how do I stop that

When I activate itunes it switches to windows basic, and it has a shield on the icon and a pop up appears when i want to open it how do I stop that and change itunes so it doesn't do that?

It sounds a bit like a compatibility mode may have been set for iTunes.
Try the following document, only be sure that none of the boxes in the compatibility mode tab are checked (not just the compatibility mode box itself):

How can i get rid of this iidiotic pop-up. allple is changing for the worst. you have to buy a new macpro in order to upgrade to a higher system, sounds like obamacare.

You have probably clicked on a mailto: web link which directs links to send e-mail messages to wherever the webmaster chooses. Go to the View menu -> Show Statusbar if it available, and then make sure the bottom of your screen is visible. When you hover over a link, if it says: mailto: it will open in your default e-mail reading application set by your browser or your e-mail program preferences.
Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Software Update lets you change how often you see the software update window.

I am unable to open files on amything!!! a box pops up that asks me what do i want to open the file with..every time!! I want files to open when i click on them!! This happens with emails, websites, everything

I try to open attachments in emails and they will not open! A box comes up asking 'what do I want to open the file with', and it wants me to select from a list of options like - Firefox, IE, Word, Yahoo Browser. When I make a selection (usually Firefox) a new tab opens with a blank page! This always happens on attachments, links, websites......everything!

These files were lost two years ago.
That's not consistent with what you wrote in your first message. I can't help you unless I know what's going on. Either you do, or do not, have backups of all the data you want to keep. If you do not, then the first thing you need to do is back up those files. It makes zero sense to do anything else. In order to back up, you'll need either of two things: another Mac, in working order, with a FireWire port and enough space on its internal drive to hold your files; or an external drive, also with enough space.
On the other hand, if you do have backups, or if you simply don't care about any of the data, then the solution to your problem may be quite simple. All you have to do is boot from your installation disc (your profile says you're running Mac OS 10.5), erase your internal drive, reinstall the Mac OS, then restore your data from backup. You will need to be selective in restoring software, because incompatible software may be what caused the issue.
But it's also possible that you have a hardware failure, in which case you can't get your computer working again until it's repaired.

I want to open excel spread sheets make additions and export back to pc users. Is numbers suitable for this activity?

I want to open excel spread sheets make additions and export back to pc users. Is numbers suitable for this activity? I am using a MACBook Air

just read this in an other answer:
Pages can open docx files, Numbers can open xlsx files. Each can export to can export .doc or .xls to the newest Word or Excel format.respectvely, but not to the more recent .docx or .xlsx.
Translation is not perfect in either direction. Numbers and Excel handle some similar features (eg. pop-up menus vs data validation) differently, and the translator cannot translate from one implementation to the other.
If much of your work is going to be transferred between your machine and Windows machines running either MS Excel or MS Word, with editing taking place at both ends of the tunnel, then you'll probably be better off with Office, or one of the Office clones on the Mac end.

Open a pop-up from a chart

Hi,
I am trying to open a pop-up window from a chart (bar graph: user clicks on bar/column and pop-up opens). I can open another page using a url ('f?p=100:200:...::::' etc) as described in documentation / how-to pages;
select
'f?p=100:200: ...' link,
a label,
b value
from my_table
However is it possible to pop-up the page in a separate window ?
Thanks for all and any help!
sinclair

You could use Apex's built in javascript popUp function:
select
('javascript:popUp2("f?p=100:200: ...");') link,
a label,
b value
from my_table
You can pass two futher optional parameters to popUp2 if you want - width and height of window that pops up e.g. popUp2('f?p=100:200',300,400)

I can't read an online ebook. asked me to how i wanted to open a pdf?

lets start from the beginning. i just recently (yesterday actually) erased everything from my macbook pro in order to install adobe creative suite. i reinstalled tiger on my computer. i'm a college student and i have been accessing a private online library for research. today i went to the same site to open an ebook and it opened up finder and asked me how i wanted to open the pdf. i hit 'cancel' and then the space where the book is usually opened just kept trying to load. it's never done this before. the information always pops up and i've never had to open any pdf files. what caused my mac to not open files properly and HOW CAN I FIX THIS?

Hi Jean, I'm sorry for the troubles you're having with your email and the way that it appears when you go to view your messages. I'd like to help, I've sent you a private message, please respond when you have a chance. Thanks.

Whenever a user opens a document shared our SharePoint intranet he is prompted if he wants to open or save the file

We have a SharePoint intranet we use to share documents. I have a user that every time he tries to open an Office document from this site, he receives the prompt: "Do you want to Open or Save this file?". If he opens the file and updates it,
the changes are saved locally on his computer and not onto the website.
The issue doesn't seem to be the site or his permissions because if he tries to do this using my computer instead, he is able to open the file, update it and the updates are saved directly onto the website. It only happens from this specific PC.
The PC is running Win7, IE9 and Office 2010 (same as mine). I also compared the configuration for the different security zones between the 2 PCs and they look the same (internet, intranet and trusted sites). I'm thinking there must be a setting
configured differently somewhere in his IE but I'm not sure what else could be causing his computer to behave differently than mine when performing this task. Any advice would be appreciated...

Hi,
Did you mean that you wanted to pop up the dialog of "You are about to open: <Name:file name><From:web site>,How would you like to open this file:Read Only, Edit", update the file and save it back to the current SharePoint library ?
Please check two points below,
Check and make sure add-on "SharePoint OpenDocuments Class" is enabled via IE9(32-bit version) Tools->Manage add-ons from your user's PC. if it doesn't appear, please repair or change the Office 2010 from Control
Panel, make sure to install Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support within
Office Tools per this
article.
If add-on "SharePoint OpenDocuments Class" has beed enabled, you need to check and disable the the Word
Protected View per this
article, then check result again.
Thanks

Firefox does not want to open popup or when I do "file new window" it does not open it too.

When I click on a link that opens a popup, firefox does not open it. Same for "File> New Window." Then, often after Firefox starts to malfunction and no longer wants to open my bookmarks. I uninstalled and reinstalled firefox, removed all extensions .. But this does not solve my problem. can you help me please?
Excuse me for my mistakes in English, I am a French person and I try to speak English the best I can so that you can solve my problem. Thank you.

Your above posted troubleshooting list shows quite a few extensions.
Did you really disable all of them and still had the problem?
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
Which security software (firewall) do you have?
Some can block pop-ups as well.

Photo elements wants to open last used dir location. When it doesn't exist or cannot access, it fails to open. How do you set the default file location?

Upset!!!
Photo elements wants to open at the last used folder location. When it does not exist or unable to open that location. It FAILS to OPEN.
Does not seem to be a way to set a default location or to change the location.
VERY ANNOYING.
How do you tell photo elements to always go to a set location rather than the last used location?
Thank you

Hi,
I did a test as you suggested - open an image on a removable drive, close the editor and took the removable offline. When I next went to the editor, it opened OK.
From the screen shot in message #5 above, I think that the fault is with SolidWorks. I am not familiar with that product but it seems to be a form of asset management and it can't open its database - is that on the removable?
Normally, the editor does not open any files when it loads except for it program files and any addins. Could SolidWorks be an addin?
See if this works to reset the preferences.
Create a desktop shortcut for this file
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
Hold down the Ctrl, Shift & Alt keys when you double click on the shortcut. Keep the keys held down and eventually a message box will pop up asking if you want to reset the preferences - you do.
