In the Menu Bar, under File, then Open File, how do I change the selections?

I have Firefox 11.0 and Windows 5.1 (2007). In Firefox, I click on FILE in the Menu Bar, then OPEN FILE (Ctrl+O), and I see a small box; it says Look in: Mozilla Firefox. Below is a selection of files within the folder Mozilla Firefox. To the left is a column of four other folders: Downloads, My Computer, John, Lori. The last two are obviously two of the folders I've created on my computer, using Windows. But I don't know how they got here! I have no recollection of customizing this particular Firefox menu option by adding those folders, nor can I figure out what to do in order to further customize it. Can anyone tell me: (1) how can I change the original "Look in" option so that it opens with something other than "Mozilla Firefox" (which, after all, I never need to access)? (2) how can I add/delete/change the choices offered in the column on the left, so that different folders are listed? (Currently, if I want to access my Windows folders/files, I first have to minimize the Firefox screen; this seems to me a nice shortcut, but I'd like it to include shortcuts to the folders I use the most, which does not include "Mozilla Firefox"!) (3) Is this actually a Firefox feature, or is it a Windows feature? It does look like Windows (Windows style, Windows folders), but it appears only in the Firefox Menu Bar, along with Bookmarks, Tools, etc. Thanks!

This sounds like a Windows thing ( You can post a photo and I can tell you for certain). Those folders are Windows system created folders that your computer has had since it was installed, all Firefox does is use the Windows File picker, which is what you see when you open that window. So, to customize you'd have to do that from Windows Explorer (not Firefox).
The Window should however remember what folder you were in last.

HT5361 I am having trouble with closing the mail app so that I can shut off my laptop. the menu bar under file doesn't give me the option to quit. that option is lister, but it is faded. command Q will not close mail either.

I am unable to shut off my laptop because I can not close the mail app. Command Q doesn't work. While "quit mail" shows up under FILE on the menu bar, it is faded and not a working option. Mail appears to be frozen. I also can not pull up the mail page despite the app being open. Clicking on the mail icon does nothing and there are no available options under the menu bar. Help, please! Thanks!

Try force-quitting (command-option-esc).

Do you mean the Bookmarks Menu button on the Navigation Toolbar?
You only see that button if the menu bar is hidden.

When I want to attach a file to an e-mail I'm sending from my iCloud account it makes the file show up in the body of the e-mail instead of attaching it as a separate file the receiver can open. How can I change this?

It should be an attachment. Your Mac just displays a preview of certain attachments (such as .pdfs) in the body of the message. A PC, for example, will see it as an attached file rather than a preview.
You can save the attachment on your Mac by Control-clicking on it and selecting Save Attachment.

Hi the fnt size in the menu bar is too small (unreadable). How can I increase the font size. I have a new Samsung PC with high resolution screen.

You must mean Photoshop Elements 11, not Photoshop.
There is no ability to change the size of the menu font in PSE 11.
note to mod:
Please move to the Photoshop Elements forum.

How can I change (or select) what is being being used when I share, as the file cover. When I Share lets say "Master File" i want to select a frame that is used as the file cover. So when its on my desktop I see this image as the file icon.

I don't think Finder does this (I've tried).
iTunes does though. Where you can set artwork or the "poster frame"...
This may not be what you want but if it helps, I know 2 ways do this is
Open the video in QuicktimePlayer7 | View | Set Poster Frame (even then, you might need to save it as .mov (ie in a 'mov container').
Drag the file into iTunes and set the artwork (as in http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/adding-album-cover-art-or-images-in-itunes .html)
From there, iTunes will use that frame as the "poster frame" ie the photo/frame that shows when you browse your videos. Which is what you want, but limited to iTunes.
When I do either of these above, the frame I set does not show when exploring files in "Finder" (or in the other Explorer tool I use called "Pathfinder").
So it maybe, that exactly what you want, is not possible.

I have two iPhones and an iPad under same Apple ID. How can I change one of the iPhones to a separate id?

I have 2 iPhones & an iPad under 1 Apple ID. How can I change 1 of the iPhones to a separate account?

Sign out of the Apple ID on the device in question, making sure to disable the Find My iDevice feature.
Sign in with the new Apple ID.
If the intent is to sell the device, simply restore as new after disabling the Find My iDevice and signing out.

Every time i download anything, it is saved as a binary file. how do i change this setting?

every time i download anything, it is saved as a binary file. how do i change this setting?

Here is a simple fix I found that worked for me.
1) Clear your download history
2) Go to Options > Options > General Tab: Change your download location to something other than what you currently have it set at. Apply the changes.
3) Go back into the Options and change it back to what it was or whatever you want it to be.
You should be all set from there.

Reinstall OS X using one of the following. The first is for Snow Leopard and the later for Lion/Mountain Lion.
Reinstall Snow Leopard without erasing the drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Hiding the menu bar of acrobat when opening in internet explorer

Hi, i remember vaguely about a certain suffix you can give to the link of a pdf file so that when it opens inside internet explorer, it does not show the menu bar. Could someone help me out and tell me what this suffix is?
I remember it was something like.... www.asfg.com/mypdf.pdf#NOMENU or something.
If there is any other way to do this, it would be appreciated as well.
Thanks,

Is there any way to disable the mouse-over function of the Spry Menu Bar (CS5)? Click-open preferred

Hello,
I'm using the standard CS5 Spry Menu Bar (Horizontal) in Dreamweaver. I have it set up exactly the way I want with CSS. However, I've very little experience with Javascript, consequently I'd like to ask anyone here for some help in modifying this aspect of the Spry Menu Bar. I'd like it to 'click-open' and not open when the mouse is over it. I've tried to change the delay variables in the code to something that has a longer duration in milliseconds; unfortunately, this tends to cause some bugs such as the menu re-opening once the mouse is no longer near it and other such bugs.
The ideal solution for me would be to have it open when it's clicked on once. The reason I need this is because the menu appears over some buttons - there's no way around this for me, it's the layout I absolutely must have. Although the buttons don't overlap with the menu, they are very close and it is annoying when your hand slips a little and the menu pops up over it all.
I'd appreciate any help at all, thank you.
PS:- The Javascript containing the delay variables I tried to modify.
Spry.Widget.MenuBar.prototype.init = function(element, opts)
    this.element = this.getElement(element);
    // represents the current (sub)menu we are operating on
    this.currMenu = null;
    this.showDelay = 250;
    this.hideDelay = 600;
    if(typeof document.getElementById == 'undefined' || (navigator.vendor == 'Apple Computer, Inc.' && typeof window.XMLHttpRequest == 'undefined') || (Spry.is.ie && typeof document.uniqueID == 'undefined'))
        // bail on older unsupported browsers
        return;
    // Fix IE6 CSS images flicker
    if (Spry.is.ie && Spry.is.version < 7){
        try {
            document.execCommand("BackgroundImageCache", false, true);
        } catch(err) {}

Hello,
Thank you so much for replying so quickly and moreover, solving my problem. I must apologise for not doing more research about this issue by searching these forums more thoroughly. I found a similar post here:-
http://forums.adobe.com/message/139937#139937
Your solution goes one step further and eliminates the need to search through the Javascript for the relevant code.
Thank you again, you've helped me a great deal.
Best wishes,
foreverdusty.

Menu bar with file, edit and view are still there not the new drop down new file bar

downloaded the new version of firefox and the new drop down menu bar that has file,edit,view and history, stuff like that is still there. i have what looks like a broken photo or missing picture square

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
In Firefox 4 [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
* Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

Menu bar button hyperlink to open a new page?

I want to know if there is a way to add a hyperlink to a Menu bar button to open a new page showing a pdf file?

To open url on button click, you can use the following example, that I used in one of my cases...
Z P/L analysis
    ls_button-text     = 'P/L analysis monitor'.
    ls_button-tooltip = 'P/L analysis monitor'.
    lv_string1 = 'javascript:window.open( "'.
    lv_string2 = '" );'.
    CONCATENATE lv_string1
    lv_url2
    lv_object_id
    lv_string2
    INTO lv_string3.
    ls_button-on_client_click = lv_string3.
    ls_button-page_id = me->component_id.
    ls_button-enabled = abap_true.
    APPEND ls_button TO rt_buttons.
    CLEAR ls_button.
Comments:
- lv_string3 represents the URL
- lv_url2 contains the url of bsp component, which you can build manualy or read from any table with select single statement
- lv_object_id represents the id of opportunity which you can read from BOL or with one of crm_order_read function modules

There is no "New Movie Recording" menu item under "File" menu

I purchased the Quick Time 7 Pro. I registered the key successfully. (The Quick Time Settings window did show "Quick Time 7 Pro"). But when I brought up the Quick Time player, there is no "New Movie Recording" sub-menu item showing up under "File" menu. There are only "New Player", "New Audio Recording", "Open File", "Open URL.." etc. subitems under "File" menu. How to record the vedio without this item show up?? Thanks.

Recording video using QuickTime Pro is a "Mac only" feature of the software. Windows versions only have audio recording.
