Links from applications in a new window

It use to be that when I clicked on a link in Mail, it would open in Safari within a new window right on top. Now it opens in a new window under the one that is already open. Is there anyway to fix this? I don't want to open something new in another tab.

Hi,
I am having the same problem, but I do have (and have always had) the preference checked to select tabs and windows as they are created. I love Spaces, but this only happens when Spaces is active and I think this problem has been happening only since 10.5.3.
With Mail.app in one space and Safari in another I click a known good link in Mail, Safari opens in Space 2 (correctly) with the new window opening and loading behind the Safari window that was previously open. It's driving me batty so any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I have an old Ipod and am trying to sync the music from it onto my new (Windows) Computer. When it links us it says it must remove and sync the music. Does this mean I will lose the music from my ipod forever?

Yes, that is exactly what it means.
The right way to do it is to first rebuild your library on the new computer, and then sync the iPod.
You can rebuild your library by copying the library from the old computer or from your backup.
If neither of those options is available, you can extract the songs from the iPod, although the process is a bit hairy. See this guide for the procedure, written by Forum member Steve/turingtest2.

"Open links from applications" in Safari 5

Preferences > General > "Open links from applications"
This has been removed in Safari 5, so when I open, say, 10 weblocs I keep in a folder in the Finder, I now get 10 separate windows.
1) ***, Apple?!?
2) Any suggestions for a hack to fix this stupid oversight?
I could probably change Preferences > Tabs > Open pages in tabs instead of windows (which I currently have set to "Never" because it overrides keystroke+click for telling Safari how to open a link) and see what that does, but I like that preference the way it is.

Hi,
Is there any workaround for this issue. Because when multiple window gets spanned we are getting confused. Or let us know if there is any way to open the download prompt alone instead of opening up with the new window. One more thing to note is once the download is complete the new window also doesn't closes automatically which needs to be closed manually. This makes very annoying. Kindly let us know how to prevent the new empty window from opening.
Vijay.

Why the links are still opened in new windows?

Why the links are still opened in new windows even I selected the option to open in tabs?
This is one of the web I am reading (sorry that it is in simplified Chinese), I have no problems reading it in tabs in Firefox:

Hi,
How are you trying to open the windows? Safari does not default to opening new windows in tabs. It can open +external application+ links (e.g. from your email program, RSS viewer, etc) in a new tab, but not links from an existing website.
To open links in a new tab, you'll need to hold the ctrl key and click the link, or use the middle-mouse button if your mouse has one (or right-click on the link and choose to open it in a new tab).

Opening an application in a new window

Hi,
I have an ordinary java class, which has access to request and response objects.
From here, I need to open a third party application in a new window.
Please let me know how I can do this.
Thanks,

do you mean a new window as in a browser? if so you could use javascript:
<INPUT type="button" value="Open new application" onClick="window.open('http://www.sun.com')>

Trying to get an .swf link to display in a new window

Hi everyone,
I recently received some links to Captivate videos for a
webhelp project I'm working on (RH Office X5.02). I can link from a
topic to the .aspx wrapper file and get the wrapper with the
associated flash files to display in a separate window without any
problem.
However, when I try do the same thing (get the link to open
in a new window) by linking directly to one of the .swf files
associated with the wrapper, RoboHelp tells me I can't do it. The
Flash file displays within the content pane, the text appears much
smaller (but not illegible), and since it didn't resize to fit
within the pane, the information on the right of the video appears
"cut off". Fortunately, most of the information appears to be on
the left side. I would REALLY like to get this Flash file to open
in a separate window.
Any ideas on this one? My Captivate expert suggested that I
could try linking to the .htm file that's associated with the .swf,
and I'm going to try that next, if no one else has any ideas.
Thanks,
Jim

Hi all
@Jim - You might want to do this by using a Redirect page.
Since the redirect is a HTML page, you could then open it in a new
window as desired. Then the redirect handles opening the .SWF.
@Cindi - Actually, inserting Captivate content in RoboHelp
topics is quite simple. You just click the Captivate icon in your
toolbar (or click Insert > Captivate) and point at the .SWF
Captivate created. RoboHelp will then create the appropriate code
to insert the Captivate into your existing page.
To both/all - Captivate normally creates a few different
files when it creates output. Another approach is to simply import
the Captivate created HTML page designed to present the Captivate
content. Then link to it as you would any other HTML page in
RoboHelp.
The links below may help. Although they were created when
RoboHelp X5 and Captivate 2 were dominant, most of what they cover
still applies.

How can I set web links to open in a new window?

I'm using the links tool in Acrobat 5.05 to create links in my pdf to other websites, not documents. When the pdf is posted online, I need those links to open in a new window. Now they open in the same window, which subjects the viewer to using the back button to return to the originating pdf and waiting for it to completely reload. This is a sizeable pdf file, making that very time consuming. I tried Un-checking the option about "Open Cross Document Links in Same Window" but tests indicated that it made no difference.
If you need more info to clarify my question, please just ask. Any suggestions in regard to solving this will be appreciated.
My apologies if a similar question has already been asked/answered. I did not find reference to it in my search.
Thank you.

You can use JavaScript for this. For example:
app.launchURL("http://www.adobe.com", true);
More information is in the Acrobat JavaScript reference. Note that this method is new to Acrobat 7. You can still use Acrobat 5 to create the JavaScript, but it won't work for versions less than 7, or for most users of non-Adobe PDF viewers. If you go this route, you should add some code that checks the version of Acrobat (Reader), and only execute the above code if 7 or above.

How Do I Prevent Hyperlinks from Opening in a New Window?

Hi,
Does anyone know how to make links in the current presentation open in the same window?
While I understand that ordinarily it would make sense to have links in the middle of the presentation open in new windows so as to not make users lose their current place in a presentation when they click on a link, my presentation ends with a link to a quiz on a secure server. Because the link in Presenter forces a new window to open, it is not evident to all users that the link does anything. This is especially true for IE users.
Thanks for the help,
Todd

You do not need to move your cursor much when pressing the mouse button to cause the tab to tear-off/tear-away into a new tab. No "sensitivity" setting that I am aware of. The tab in the new window can be dragged back to the original window.
To disable the feature, install this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug489729-disable-detach-and-t/
*Read the information on the above page
*Set options for the add-on: Add-ons > Extensions, click Options next to the specific Extension (the 2 options are defined/explained in the above page).

How can I get embedded advertising links to open in a new window?

I am working with Muse and have tried editing the HTML but it didn't work.
Thanks, Sandy

If you are inserting links as text and then through Hyperlink adding external link , then you can setup the link to open in a new window.
http://helpx.adobe.com/muse/using/creating-hyperlinks.html#id_29862
In case the link is included in any html frame , you can declare target="_blank" which would open the links with a new window.
Thanks,

No; it means that the computer has adware. Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.

I need to reinstall photoshop 2004 from disk to my new windows 8 or 8.1

My laptop crashed. I need to reinstall photoshop 2004 from disk to my new windows 8 or 8.1 (can't remember which it is), but my laptop freezes every time I insert the disk. Can anyone help?

If you will tell me what 2004 means. Photoshop CS or version 8 came out around that time and since activation has been terminated for that version, you are entitled to the CS2 replacement:

You can look at the browser.link.open_newwindow prefs on the about:config page if you want to divert all JavaScript window.open() calls to a new tab.

Links will not open in new window from iPad but work in IE on desktop.

I am trying to set some links to open in a new tab but for some reason they just keep opening in the original tab. External links work fine but when I try to make another page from my website open in new tab, it will not work.
I have looked at the code and it all looks fine.
<a class="nonblock nontext shadow rounded-corners clearfix grpelem" id="u105617-9" href="metro_tweets.html" target="_blank"> Metropolitan Region TWEETS</a>
I have also ticked the box that says "open the link in a new window or tab".
Any ideas what the issue could be? It has worked before so I am sure it can be done.
Would it have anything to do with the site hierarchy?
Cheers
Garry

Hi Aish,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I had a feeling you would ask me those questions so I'll give you a bit more background of what I am doing.
I have created a locally accessed web app as part of project I am working on at Universty. It is a mockup of an iPad app that I will eventually build, although it is fully functional in it's web app state. For this reason it is not hosted on any web server but instead transferred to the iPad via DiskAid and accessed from Mercury Browser.
Mercury browser is the only browser that I have found that can display html files from within it's own file storage and make it look like it is being served from a server. Safari browser will not let you do this and the only other browser that I found that could do it has been discontinued (Terra Browser).
Adobe Muse has been fantastic for doing this kind of work and as I said before, the internal links opened in a new tab with Mercury Browser previously, so I am not really sure what is going on.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Cheers
Garry
