Making "Properties bar" active in all opened documents OR opening multiple documents in the same win

Adobe Acrobat Pro. / Extended version 9
OS: Windows XP SP3
Hi & thanks for your services.
In acrobat 8 we could open >1 pdf in the same window; this is not available for V.9 & the problem is that full editing is possible ONLY in the window opened last because "properties bar" is not active in other windows but the last one.
So please let us open more than one pdf in the same window for acrobat 9, or make full editing (active "properties bar") available in all opened windows.
I shall also say that generally V.9 is better & more stable than V.8.
With great appreciations.

This is the worst thing to happen to acrobat, in my opinion.
The clutter that it creates on my computer and the fact that i cant even see the document title when I have a bunch of them open (because the task bar is too full) is unacceptable.
I never would have changed from Acrobat 8 if I had known, and now I cant switch back (company license).
The latest thing i can find about addressing it is here:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb405108&sliceId=1
which was in november 2008....
why hasnt any thing else been done about it?  I just spent 45 minutes being sent to different departments over the phone, only to be told to submit a feature request.
Please do this if you havent already:

  • Cant open external links and multiple instances of the same profile.

    I have multiple firefox profiles.
    I constantly have two profiles running at the same time.
    I use microsoft outlook and see an external link, I click it wishing firefox to open it in the default or new browser. It does not and says "FIrefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."
    Firefox is running fine.
    How can I open external links with a profile based setup?
    Also, how can I open multiple instances of the same profile? I find that if I click and drag a tab to another monitor, it opens a new "instance" or browser window.

    You say
    ''I have multiple firefox profiles. <br />
    I constantly have two profiles running at the same time. ''
    So you will have discovered ''-no-remote'' Note NOT to use that on the default browser; profile, only on secondary profiles.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_in_use#Common_causes
    You will NOT be able to open multiple instances of the same profile, clone the profile if necessary.
    If you are trying to run multiple Webmail accounts in one profile then you may well find the webmail is identifying and setting the user account that is opened. Use a Private Browsing window to get round that and open a second account.

  • SQL Server wants to open properties of wrong database and cannot restore logs of different databases at the same time

    We have implemented our own way of logshipping by backing up the transaction logs of all our non-system databases every hour. Then we transfer the backups (before SQL Server 2008 R2 with additional zip and unzip steps) to the second environment where we
    restore them only during the night on databases in standby-state (Like this, our developers can access the databases without disturbing the productive system and we can restore the t-logs during night, so not shutting out the developers during the day).
    Now since we replaced our hardware in the productive environment, we replaced the hardware in the second environment with the servers from previous productive environment. Same SQL Server 2008 R2, same Service Pack (SP2), same installation procedure. But
    since then the SQL Server in the second environment behaves different:
    - When the logs of some database "A" are restored, I cannot access the properties of any database, i.e. database "B", I only get the error message "Cannot show requested dialog. (SqlMgmt) Database 'A' cannot be opened. It is in the
    middle of a restore. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 927)"
    - Our logshipping runs multiple instance at the same time, so restoring multiple databases' logs. But since the change, two of the instances fail restoring of datatbases, i.e. "B" and "C" with the error message "Database 'A' cannot
    be opened. It is in the middle of a restore.". The jobs guarantee to restore only logs of the database they need to restore, they have strictly separated sets of target databases and only try to restore the databases of their sets.
    Before the new installations, we did not have these strange behaviours. But as said, it is the same SQL Server version, the same service pack, and we followed the same installation document but maybe with the small changes in settings. The user the jobs
    are running under is a domain admin, the login they use has dbcreator, processadmin, db_owner and db_backupoperator roles. My login on the SQL Server has sysadmin rights and as described similar problems.
    Is this problem known or does somebody have an idea where to go looking for?
    Thanks, Chris

    Hi Christar,
    According to your description, after you configuring Log shipping between two database, you remove the hardware from production environment to dev environment, in this hardware, there are saved the transaction logs of your database.
     When restoring  your database, there will occurs error 927, right?
    SQL Server Log shipping allows you to automatically send transaction log backups from a
    primary database on a primary server instance to one or more
    secondary databases on separate secondary server instances. It consists of three operations:
    1.Back up the transaction log at the primary server instance.
    2.Copy the transaction log file to the secondary server instance.
    3.Restore the log backup on the secondary server instance.
    Since you want to move your hardware avoiding copy job, we need to verify if .mdf and .ldf file are not saved in your hardware, or else,
     if you move your hardware, you could not open your database in your Primary Server. I recommend you can refer to the following steps.
    Full back up your primary database and restore it into the secondary database. It would have been set up as WITH STANDBY ,the databases would read StandBy/ Read Only.
    Perform transaction log backups via a SQL Server Agent job running on the primary server instance, save them in your hardware.
    In night, you move hardware to your dev environment, you can manually restore these transaction log backups or set up a SQL Server Agent job to restoring them from your hardware.
    There is detail about how to configure log shipping in SQL Server 2008R2 step by step, you can review it.

  • Open multiple occurances of the same document

    We are running reader 9.1.1 and need to be able to open multipe occurances of the same document. Yes, I know how to open the same document multiple time with <window><new window> the problem with this is editing a form in one window changes it in all windows. I need to ope independant occurances or the same form. Can this be done? The /n switch will not work for this either! Hope somebody has an idea.

    Simple solution, yes. Unfortunatly its not that simple... Having multiple copies of the same document posses issues when updating the document. This doucument is updated almost daily and is distibuted to many users across a network... Having to have users open multiple copies of the document creates many logistical and use issues.

  • I'm using 9.2.1.  Every time I open an album, I get a "face (the same one)" covering every picture. If I click on the picture, I can see the real picture.  How do I get rid of this "face" that covers all?

    I'm usingiPhoto 9.2.1.  Recently, everytime I open an album, I get a "face (the same one)" covering every picture. If I click on the picture, I can see the real picture.  How do I get rid of this "face" that covers all?

    Make a temporary backup of your library (if you don't already have a backup of it) and launch iPhoto with the Command +Option key held down and rebuild the library with options #1, 2, 3 and 6 selected.

  • Stop opening multiple instances of the same application

    I am used to having graphic files on my desktop, when editing one I would simply right-click and pick "open with" > Photoshop (which is always open in its own desktop in my computer). Now out of the blue, if I do that, it loads another instance of Photoshop, which is certainly what I don't want. I can have 2, 3, 4 Photoshops running at the same time and editing the same image!
    Any idea how to solve this? I searched but all I could find is people wanting the opposite i.e. opening multiple instances of the same app.

    Your best bet to prevent this is to detach or unmount this drive; however, you can also try resetting your Mac's launch services, to have it re-scan only the Applications folders on your boot drive for programs to associate with documents and services you are using. Running the following command in the OS X Terminal will kill the current launch services database (its long, but copy and paste the entire line):
    /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill
    Following this, run the following command to seed the database with the apps you currently have installed:
    /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -seed
    Note that these changes will only apply when opening documents that have not been specifically assigned to a program. If you find a specific document continues to open the program on the external drive, then you can get info on it and change the associated program in the "Open With" section of the info window. After doing this, you might need to re-run these commands above, as opening the program will register it with OS X's launch services and have it now be available for automatically handling other documents.

  • How open multiple responsibilities in the same user login session in R12 ?

    Dear All,
    Can anyone help me to know how to open multiple responsibility in the same user login session in R12 ?
    Thanks..
    Edited by: G-oracle on Sep 18, 2011 11:22 AM

    Can anyone help me to know how to open multiple responsibility in the same user login session in R12 ?What do you mean by open multiple responsibilities in the same session? You can only see the menu of one responsibility at a time, so how to do you expect the application to let you see multiple responsibilities/menus in one session?
    You could open another session and this way you can access more than one responsibility at the same time.
    Thanks,

  • CRVS2010 - open multiple rpts at the same time, like sheets in a xls file ?

    Hi all,
    is that possible to open multiple reports at the same time, like sheets in a excell file ?
    Is that possible create tabs beside the MainReport tab ? or include reports in the Group Tree ? how can I do it ?
    The application is in asp.net with VS2010 and CR2010.
    The reports used to be in excell with three sheets and now we are migrating them to crystal reports, how can I create the report with those three sheets ?
    thanks !

    I'll make the suggestion to the Program Management group.
    You may want to do a post to the [Crystal Reports Design|SAP Crystal Reports; forum and ask them how they's fake that sort of a requirement. E.g.; there may be some way to make this report look the way you want, but it will be best to ask the experts. Don't mention CRVS2010 as they don't support it and most likely you will not get an answer.

  • Can you opening multiple albums at the same time in Photo (not iPhoto)?

    When converting the iPhoto library to Photo most of the albums that were in place in iPhoto converted to albums in Photo . . . .but not all. Some were retained as events mainly those that were folders within an album. In order to move them to the right album I would like to have multiple albums open at the same time (side by side) so that I can make sure not to duplicate photos or move them to the wrong spot.
    I cant see how to do this, it seems that I can need to open one album and check phots and then close to look within and other and rely on memory. There must be a more efficient and accurate way to do this?

    All of the events in iPhoto were converted to albums and are located in the Folder titled iPhoto Event in the sidebar of Photos. 
    You can't open multiple albums at the same time.  You can create a smart album that will do essentially the same thing with the following criteria:
    Album is "A"
    Album is "B".
    The smart album will display all of the photos in those two albums.

  • How can I open multiple instances of the same version of FF?

    I understand that if I have multiple profiles, I can run different versions of FF side-by-side (like 3.6 and 4).
    However, what I'm interested in is how I can launch multiple instances of the same version of FF (4, for instance) using the same profile. In other words, I want to be able to double-click the desktop icon for FF, and open a new instance, and keep doing that as many times as I want. I don't want to have a different icon and profile for each instance (too much overhead to keep a dozen+ profiles in sync).
    I can always launch one FF window instance, and then keep clicking ctrl+N to launch new instances from inside it, which they all share the same profile (as I want). So, basically, I want to be able to do that from my desktop icon, rather than by having to do it with the keyboard ctrl+N sequence.

    But I don't understand why whatever Firefox does when you click ctrl+N can't also be done (with some sort of command-line switch) from a desktop icon?
    In other words, I clearly can create many FF instances (even if they are the same FF.exe process) by doing ctrl+n a bunch of times. Why then can't this behavior be done from a desktop icon with some parameters?
    As far as I know, FF is the only browser that doesn't directly allow multiple browser instances from desktop icons. IE, Chrome, Safari, Opera, etc... all let me launch a new instance (even if they are all single process and the instances are shared within the process).

    How can I print multiple copies of the same photo onto one sheet of paper?  Do I have to Duplicate the photo in iPhoto and then select them all?

    no - you simply have to select the option to print mucliples of a photo on a page
    select the photo and go to the file menu ==> print - select the printer, paper size and print size and click customize - in the tool bar click on the settings icon (the gear looking thingy) and select "multiple of the same photo per page" and the preview will reflect this option showing a full page of the selected size photos

  • Can I open multiple copies of the same book?

    I am reading a more technical book. It would be helpful to have multiple pages opened at the same time (for the purpose of reference)
    Is it possible to open more than one copy of the same book?
    I know that I can open the book on my iPad or iPhone, but I would like to open them both on my Mac.

    I used to be able to print multiple copies of the same picture on one page using iphoto. There was a customise button when you went through to print and it was there somewhere. I can't see it anymore - maybe since an upgrade.
    It's gone. But as a work-around, duplicate your photo (⌘D) to create as many versions as you want copies and select all at once. Then use the "Custom" print layout and set the photo size you want.
    After printing, trash the added versions.

    Need to know of a method / process that can be used to send the same msg to all those appearing in my email listings with the same extension after the "@" sign in their address(es) on my macbook [Snow Leopard].

    If you simply want to send the exact same message to everyone in your address book with emails ending in "@whatever.com", you can do the following:
    Create an email with subject, message and attachments but no addresses
    Open Address Book, All Contacts
    Search in Address Book for @whatever.com
    Select the results and drag them into the To: or Bcc: field of the email. If Bcc: then put your email address in the To: field.
    Send the email
    This will not personalize the emails (such as with "Dear firstname:" at the top of the message) but it will let you send an idential message to everyone who meets your criteria.

  • Open/run Multiple Windows of the same VI

    Hi!
    In my current project I would like to have the user open multiple windows of the same VI.  I've made a re-entrant VI:
    This is, currently, a very simple VI that just has a numeric control, a loop, and a stop button.  I then have a VI that calls the re-entrant VI.  I'd like it so that each time the user presses the "Call Re-Entrant VI" button, a new window of this VI is spawned and run.
    The first time the button is pressed, the re-entrant VI opens and runs fine. The title of the VI in the title bar is "Re-Entrant.vi:1 (clone)" (as expected).  When I try to launch another instance I get this error:
    I'm running LabVIEW 2009.
    Thanks for your time.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Here we go.  The Close Reference VI was causing my re-entrant VI to stop execution.  What do you think of this:
    This appears to work.  I'd probably want to get the path of my referenced re-entrant VI outside of my loop (since this will remain constant throughout the programs execution).  My guess is the Auto Dispose Ref feature will mean that as these windows are closed by my user, their garbage will be collected properly....?
    Thanks for your help.
    Edit: how odd that my Error Cluster constant in the VI Snippet wasn't saved to the image properly.

    I cannot open numbers.  When I double click on the icon it says "Numbers cannot be opened while it is being updated."  The same is happening with other programs.  I recently upgraded to Mavericks

    Well, I figured itout.
    Apparently the Numbers (and Pages) app downloads was stopped and \never re\started.. possibly because of something I did, like turn off my machine during them.
    I went to Apple > App Store > Purchases.  I discovered all three iWorks apps were listed but showed "Resume" as the status button at the right.  I clicked on each to get them started again... and they eventually automatically became "Installed".
    They work, now!
