Is there any way to force the "Save As" dialog to automatically select only the filename, not the filename+extension?

See
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=426680
or more clearly stated here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480522
Two years later this "bug" (not exactly a bug, but a pain in the butt nonetheless) is still not resolved.
Yes, I'm running the latest version of Firefox (6.0.1). And I'm running it on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.6.7.
The selection is made correctly in other applications; this problem is Firefox-specific, and occurs even when no extensions or plug-ins are installed.
Except that when I had my last computer, I found a work-around somewhere that fixed it, but for the life of me I can't recall what kind, how, or where.
Any help with solving this irritating issue would be greatly appreciated.

The initial view (IV) settings within a PDF file are static tags - they can't be made to dynamically-adapt based on the window dimensions,it's the renderer (Acrobat, Reader, or whatever else is opening the file) that decides if and how it will follow the IV requested by the file header.
It would be possible to use a Page Open action on the first page of the file, which does some nasty math with the various doc.*WindowRect objects to work out how much "wasted" space there is, and then set the doc.layout and doc.zoomType properties - but page actions are a different concept to IV as the zoom will reset itself every time that page is viewed. Users don't like their application apparently fiddling with the zoom level without being told to!

Is there any way to force a PXI6115 to generate AI Start Trig on PFI0 but not actually trigger on it?

I am using a PXI chassis with 10 6115's and a 6608 counter/timer. I need to use analog triggering on one of the 6115 AI channels. The particular channel will depend on the test setup, so I can't just pick one and hard-wire it. This analog trigger will be the master timing reference for all of the boards.
However, I need to trigger the 6115's at different times (e.g., trigger three at the same time and seven at some later time) so I'm routing the AI Start Trigger from whichever is the trigger channel (one of the first 16 channels) to RTSI0. The first five counters are then GATEd on RTSI0 and the counter OUTs are hardwired to the 6115's PFI0s in groups of two. So,
basically, one of the 6115s sends AI Start Trigger to the five counters which, in turn, generate five delayed triggers that are sent to the 10 6115's.
My problem is that I can't use a zero delay on the counter, so I can't get the 6115s to trigger at the same time, if need be. Whichever one generats the analog trigger will always be slightly ahead of all of the others that I would like to trigger at the same time.
So my question is this: can I somehow force one of the 6115's to generate the AI Start Trigger across RTSI0 but not actually trigger itself until it gets the trigger back from the counter/timer? This way, the delay will still be there but all of the boards can get a simulataneous trigger if need be.
Thanks,
RGA

RGA,
Unfortunately, I do not believe that it is possible for a DAQ board to generate an AI Start Trigger from an analog trigger, but not be triggered itself until it receives a digital trigger.

On a large monitor, the bookmarks toolbar is opening outside of the Firefox window itself - is there any way to force it to stay inside?

Recently I installed Windows 7 on my computer, along with a device called a Triplehead2Go, which spoofs the operating system into thinking that the computer has one monitor attached (when it really has three). When the Firefox window is relatively small on the desktop and with excess space to the right, the bookmarks toolbar opens to the right (and extends outside of the window). This creates a problem for me, as the monitor bezels get in the way of navigation. When the Firefox window is all the way to the right of the desktop, the bookmarks toolbar opens inside of the window (as there is not enough space to the right for it).
Is there any way to force this menu to stay within its boundaries?

The screen dimensions are "right," but I don't want it to use up any more space on-screen than is in the window.

Is there any way to force the applet to load the file without using cache?

Hi,
I have the applet that renders some data from a file specified as the parameter. The problem is that the user can do something, that changes the input file and reloads the page, but the applet renders old data (from browser cache most probably)
Is there any way to force the applet to load the file without using cache?

Disc in drive that Mini will not recognize, will not eject. Is there any way to force eject? The computer says it's empty, but it's not.

I have a disc in the super drive but cannot eject it because the Mini does not recognize that it's there. I've tried the eject button on top of the screen and in the dvd player controls. I wish there was an eject button on the machine. Is there any way to force eject?
Thanks.

Is there any way to force time machine to keep retrying after disk i/o error?

a little background to my problem:
i've had a hard drive problem previously, and i managed get all the data off of my mac by trying and retrying to access the same files and also from my working time machine backup. after zeroing out and reformatting my drive and doing a clean install of Mavericks i had everything back up running no problems.
recently, my macbook pro would be stuck and slow in recently imported iphoto pics so i figured my hard drive is really failing this time around
i try to get a time machine backup to save what i can, but after a couple of tries time machine would just stop backing up and in console i would see a disk i/o error.
is there any way to force time machine to keep trying to backup through the disk i/o error so i can save what i can before getting a new drive?
edit: a little more info, i know i have a harddrive error from looking at the console, but when i do a verify disk in disk utility it comes up clean and even after doing a disk repair it comes up clean i still see disk i/o errors in the console.

*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
Thee can also be a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.sqlite, extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry.<br />
New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files":
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to do a compatibility check or see if there is an update.

Is there any way to force Firefox to remember passwords?

As many have complained about, there is a growing trend for websites to prevent browsers, including Firefox, from remembering passwords. This is absolutely infuriating. Like most people, I have on the order of 100 passwords, and thanks to idiotic, overzealous IT guys who need to justify their own jobs, we are forced to constantly change them to ludicrous, impossible-to-remember combinations of symbols and numbers. (Does anybody really get their accounts stolen because some hacker sits down and tries to guess their password? Somehow I find that very, very hard to believe.)
First world problems, I know. My question though is simple: is there any way to force Firefox to remember passwords? Perhaps an add-on or external program of some kind? I know there are password manager programs, but the last time I checked, those were all but worthless and didn't work as well as the built-in Firefox support for remembering passwords. Thanks for any help.

hello andrew, yes you can either [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/remember-passwords/ install an addon] or [https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_password use a bookmarklet] to circumvent this restriction.
in an upcoming version of firefox, this functionality will also be built-in directly into the browser: http://www.ghacks.net/2013/12/24/firefox-29-save-fill-autocompleteoff-passwords/

Is there any way to force iPhoto to present faces by folder for identification rather than randomly? Would provide better context for identification especially if a huge number of images is involved.

Before I commit the time and energy required to load and tag faces in 25,000 images within iPhoto, I need some questions answered;
Is there any way to force iPhoto to present faces by folder for tagging rather than randomly? When so many images need tagging, over many years, the context of a folder helps with the identification. The work around is to load the images into iPhoto one folder at a time and do the tagging then.
How do I get iPhoto to present the tagged faces by last name rather than first name? When so many faces will be identified, it is much easier to find people by surname, particularly when I share the library within the family. The work around is to enter names as last name and first name. Being able to toggle the sort is much more desireable.
Is there a way to export a portion of the library including faces? I want to pass on portions of this huge 125 GB library to my family members.
Since my family members will need an Apple computer to view the images and faces, they will likely have their own photo library. So is there any way to combine two libraries and merge the faces?
About 2/3 of my images have been scanned, so the date of creation is the scanned date rather than the date the photo was taken. Will this mess up any sequencing or the retrieval of faces?

If I want to carve off part of a library, I presume the way to do this is to make a copy of the library using PLM then go into iPhoto and delete what I don't want. The result is the carved off portion.
You don't need Library Manager to delete the portion you don't want.
As a general rule: when deleting photos do them in batches of about 100 at a time. iPhoto can baulk at trashing large numbers at one go.
If I want to merge two libraries, PLM implies that it will do this but will the Faces be merged too?
I believe so.

Is there any way to force Sun C++ Preprocessor preserve whitespace?

Hello!
I'm preprocessing simple source file:
void test()
int i;
}with command: CC -E test.cpp
and CC preprocessor eats all whitespace at the beginning of each line, like this:
void test()
int i;
}Is there any way to force CC preprocessor preserve whitespace?

You cannot use the C preprocessor on C++ code, for at least two major reasons.
1. The default -I options in CC are not the same as for cc. Try adding
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
to your example.
Even if you add the missing -I options, the conventions for finding the C++ standard headers are not known to the C preprocessor.
Example:
% cc -P -I/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/Cstd -I/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC -I/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/cc z.c
"z.c", line 2: cannot find include file: <cstdlib>
cc: acomp failed for z.c2. The predefined macros (-D options and predefined macros built into the compilers) are different for cc and CC.
In particular, the C compiler predefines macros saying it is a C compiler. The C++ compiler predefines macros saying it is a C++ compiler. Code that is conditionalized on whether it is compiled by the C or C++ compiler will give different results. If you add -D options for C++ macros, the results will depend on the way the tests are coded. That is, testing for a C compiler or a C++ compiler will not give mutually exclusive answers, as they would if you use the correct compiler. The Solaris headers have conditional code for C and C++.

IS THERE ANY WAY TO FORCE KEY COMMIT

Hi:
Is there any way in forcing when inserting/updating a record in a block to call KEYCOMMIT. For Example, if the user inserted/updated a record and before saving the user may quit the form. I would like to enforce the keycommit trigger to be called when the form is opted to close.

Hello,
Try the following in Key-Exit trigger:
BEGIN
IF :system.form_status = 'CHANGED' THEN
DO_KEY('COMMIT_FORM');
ELSE
EXIT_FORM(NO_VALIDATE);
END IF;
END;
Regards,
George

Iphone 3gs is there any way that i can save contact on itunes

iphone 3gs is there any way that i can save contact on itunes

Contacts are not saved in itunes.
Contacts can be saved a number of ways though. With a 3GS you can update to iOS5 and use iCloud to sync contacts to computers or other iOS devices or just to the iCloud server. You can back up your phone to iCloud which does save your contacts.
You can use iTunes to sync your contacts with address book on a mac, or windows contacts on a PC, or with outlook contacts. You can make a backup in iTunes which will include your contacts. They will not be accessible but you can restore to a device if something happens to your device and recover them.
You can also sync your contacts through a mail client such as yahoo, google, hotmail, or any exchange service.
Lastly, there's many apps that can store contacts.

Thanks. I tried an app called Office2HD and it does exactly what I need. I can even email my edited file from this app.

Is there any way to force purchase an unsupported app?

I'm currently stuck on OS X 1.7.5 since my MacBook Pro isn't compatible with anything more recent than that.
However, I'll be upgrading to a new Retina MacBook Pro very soon and I'd like to purchase an OS X app that requires 10.8, since it's currently heavily discounted.
Is there any way to force purchase it on my 10.7.5 system so that I'll be able to use it when I upgrade to a new Mac?
Thanks!

TS4003 if I am running a mac OS x that is lower than 10.7.2, is there any way to publich my iweb site to icloud (I have an iphone that meets the system requirements)?

if I am running a mac OS x that is lower than 10.7.2, is there any way to publich my iweb site to icloud (I have an iphone that meets the system requirements)? I'm using iWeb 3.0.1 and previously had my website published to mobile me.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately, iCloud does not offer equivalents to Mobile Me’s iDisk, Gallery or Web Hosting services. You will need to find a third party solution to replace these services. You might considerDropBox, SugarSync, MediaFire or any other service that offers online storage. (not all these alternatives offer all the services previously provided by iDisk)
So it won't matter whether you have Snow Leopard or Lion, you will not be able to upload your website to iCloud.
