Iweb: Main window failing to launch. Help?

Hello,
I just launched iWeb and the main working window does not load. The program is open and I can see the menu bars at the top (but of course they are all grayed out because there is no working space.) I have tried launching the domain from my Finder and it launches iWeb but I can't see anything to work with. Can someone please point me in the right direction to correct this issue? I hopefully haven't lost any of my data.
Thanks so much!

Main window buried when launched

The program launches, the menu appears at the top, but if there are any other program windows open, the main Inbox window hides behind them. I have to click on the Mail icon in the dock to bring it forward.
I know it's not a major problem, but it never did that before.
Permissions repaired and disk verified OK. Any thoughts?

I can reproduce your issue. The MainWindow gets deactivated. This happens when one windows owns a second, which in turn owns a third window and is actually not a WPF issue but a Win32 one:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3144004/wpf-app-loses-completely-focus-on-window-close
The easiest work around in your case is to not set the Owner property of the SettingsWindow in the settings_btn_Click event handler in MainWindow:
private void settings_btn_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
//REMOVE THIS LINE: settings.Owner = this;
if (!settings.IsVisible)
settings.Show();
else
settings.Activate();
For all child windows to still get closed as expected when you close the MainWindow you can then set the Shutdown mode property of the application to OnMainWindowClose in your App.xaml:
<Application x:Class="InformationAlt.App"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
StartupUri="MainWindow.xaml" ShutdownMode="OnMainWindowClose">
<Application.Resources>
</Application.Resources>
</Application>
Hope that helps.

Main window size for HTML Help

Hello again
I have looked at the archives and despite thinking I had seen
this particular issue covered before, I could not find anything. I
generate a HTML Help File with RoboHelp for Word x5.0.1 and would
like to set the default window size as at the moment my Help File
opens in a rather small window. Also if a user maximises the
window, closes the Help File and re-opens it, it still opens in the
small windows, i.e. the size settings were not save upon closing
the file.
Can anybody help? I reckon there must be some place (I
noticed the existence of the Edit > Windows menu but it only
seems to apply to WinHelp) I can set this up.
Thank you.
Regards,

In Project Manager, double click Windows and then the window
you use. There should be fields for setting the size. If not, check
that HTML is your primary output and then create a new window, then
you should see the fields.

Can not turn suggestions on in main window box, works on bar only

down loaded new FF - changed Yahoo page for blank - set FF as new home page - now suggestions only work on search bar only - can not find out how to turn suggestions on in main window search box - online help windows show 2 blue f boxes in tool bar which I no longer have on my tool bar - they disappeared when I switched out the Yahoo home page. Can I not have FF with suggestions as my home page or do I have to run it the way it was down loaded?

The about:home page with a Google search bar doesn't and can't show suggestions.<br />
You will have to set the home page instead to the Google website (https://www.google.com).

Dynamic main window size

hi all,
Mian window size should vary based on the value.
This is my situation ... if my footer window is not printed the space is left blank, but my scenerio is to cover the blank space with my main window when my footer window is not displayed.
for example when the data exceeds first page then my footer window willbe printed only in the next page, so space left by the window should be filled by main window .
how to dynamically chage teh main window size based on the footer window...
Please provide me the details.
Thanks in advance.
Suresh RR

Hi Suresh,
Theres no need to use a dynamic main window. All you have to do is to print the footer on the last page if theres no content in the main window. I will explain how.
Just create a main window that fills up the page to the end. Use a text element for printing the main window content. Once that is done check &PAGE& equal to &SAPSCRIPT-FORMPAGES& (This field contains a number representing the total number of pages of the currently formatted form). Once that is done it means that the last page is reached. Then you call another text element having the footer text or data. that way you cqan print the footer in the last page without modifying the main window.

Samrtform: table line should be displayed whole main window.

Hi All,
I have a requirement, the table lines in smartform should be displayed in whole window.
The above should be like,
Note: the table control height gets dynamically changed, in my case there is only one item in table so the table control lines are not filled the main window.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks.

Hello Alexander,
You need to create a TEMPLATE with extact width and height of your main window. This Template should contains the line type with the borders.
Remove the borders from the table line in the main window.

I open iWeb but the main window doesn't open/appear on screen. The little windows like the inspector and font windows appear. Can anyone help?

I open iWeb but the main window doesn't open/appear on screen. The little windows like the inspector and font windows appear. Can anyone help?

Try the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
3 - launch iWeb and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

ITunes fails to launch; Mac Book Pro; Mac OS X 10.6.8;Tried everything so far; NOTHING WORKS. Help!! Desperate!

I'm on a Mac OS X 10.6.8 and all of a sudden one day my iTunes failed to launch. The problem has persisted for months now--I've tried reinstalling, updating all software, removing all music files (which I backed up), I tried Safe Launching it--NOTHING WORKS. Help!! I'm Desperate!
I was existing with my iPhone which is my main music player anyway--and I lost it in a cab yesterday! I need to sync everything (thanks to iCloud most of it is taken care of contacts and calendar wise) and I'm sort of losing hope that this issue can be resolved with the iTunes...
Anyone ever experience this?
Any help is so greatly appreciated!

Are you 100% sure that the HDD is totally damaged and there is absolutely no way to recover DATA at all???
Actually the drive might be working fine and there could be a Mac hardware, boot sector malware or cable issue at fault, that can't be determined until the drive is removed from the Mac and a SATA to USB adapter cable used to another Mac, PC or Linux machine.
Even if the file structure is defective there is Data Rescue type software that can read the 1's and 0's of unencrypted data directly off the drive.
If your data is really valuable and worth more than a few thousand dollars, there is Drive Savers which will physically dissect the drive and read the platters directly if the above method fails.
Is it possible.. if I take out the HDD and connect it to some other PC as standby and copy data.. may be its booting section got damaged and it cant boot but it may detect and allow me to copy my data when standby?
Yes it is possible, a piece of software called MacDrive can be installed on the Windows PC and used to read the HFS+ format of the Mac boot drive.
Linux also will read HFS+ format and also fix a lot of problems with drives to get them working.
I suggest you take your Mac to a Linux level geek first to do a hardware evaluation of the drive, a passive image of the drive if it's working so you can later use Data Rescue (no encryption/Filevault) yourself as it takes hours.
If the drive isn't working physically, then consider Drive Savers if you want to part with a few thousand and the drive is not encrypted/Filevaulted.
Forget Apple and many of their type repair shops, they usually don't/won't/can't take the time and just replace your drive and tell you tough luck you should have backed up.
My computer is not working, is my personal data lost?

Safari main window not showing up in my user account when launched

Safari main window is not showing up when launched in my user account.
For some unknown reason, there must be a bug with Space and Safari as when I switch from Space 1 to Space 2 (and vice versa) I can see the Safari main window for less than 1 sec but could not fix it to show up and stay in the foreground in any of the 4 Spaces areas.
I have tried to desactivate Space or change some settings in Space but could not fix the issue.
Last but not least, Safari is working well for all other user accounts on my Mac.
I have updgraded my OS to 10.5.7 and Safari v4 last patch but I have the same issue for 1 month

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Try deleting this file. com.apple.safari.plist
/Users/YourName/Libary/Preferences. Drag that file from the Preferences folder to the Trash, empty the Trash and restart your Mac. See if that helps...

Failed Windows Store App certification - error 10.3.1 Unfortunately when we reviewed your app, it failed to launch every time. - No clue

I am trying to submit a Windows Store App (x64 for Windows 8.1 only), but it fails the certification procedure, and I have no idea about what I am doing wrong.
- The app passes successfully the local Windows App Certification Kit 3.4.
- I have tried the app with the network cable out, and it works as expected.
- I have used the same credentials to generate the appupload package and to submit it.
- The app starts up and works as expected with a Surface Pro 3, a PC with development tools like Visual Studio; and another PC without anything extra installed.
- The feedback provided by the certification testers is the following sentence: "10.3.1 App is testable: Unfortunately when we reviewed your app, it failed to launch every time."
- Their attachment is a screenshot showing a fullscreen, flat color, rectangle.
- There is no crash report of any kind.
- The e-mail interaction with the certification guys seems to be quite a nonsensical conversation.
¿Any ideas that can help me to solve this problem?
Thank you very much for any hint you can provide.

Main window (& source list) are somehow... gone! help!

something's gone wrong with iPhoto.
for some reason, when I turn it on, we do not get the basic iP main window (with the source list), we get a blank screen - I can then open the events page, but I can't get the standard first / main window.
so, as I can't get the source, list, I have no way to tell iP to transfer photos from the iPhone or even a camera - or anything in fact...
can anyone suggest anything?

renew your iPhoto preference file - A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.
