Minor UI Bug: Using Dual Monitor File menu Displays on other monitor.

I Currently have the Browser on my right side monitor. When I click file the file menu shows up on my left side monitor,but it should be showing where the browser is, which is on the right side.

Hi,
If you go to the preview view and click restore, will the window go back to your screen?
Thanks.

Importing multiple files using the Import File menu.

For some reason I am never able to add more the 5 mp3 files using the Import File menu. All of my files are located on the NAS device and if I select the Import Folder menu all the files in the folder will be imported. However, time after time I add more files to the same folder and then need to import just the new files to iTunes. For that I am using the Import File menu. If select more then 5 files, only 5 files will be imported. Some times I have 100 new files that I want to add, and moving 5 files a time is time consuming and painful. I try opening the folder, selecting all files and dropping them into iTunes, but that did not work. Is there a way to import more than 5 files at a time, or iTunes is not capable doing that?

I am often surprised how many ways there are to add songs to iTunes. Selecting a number in the open file dialog must have a maximum string length for the file names. I bet that the path and file name are long on those songs and that is why you can only load 5 at a time from your NAS. What I have had luck with and is very easy is to select a group of songs and right click and "play" them. My iTunes is set to import and organize on play. The first song starts playing and they all load. I routinely do this with entire albums without problem.

Cannot remove file menu from split screen monitors.

Hello, I installed the latest update from Apple which was the new Safari 7. I run 2 added monitors with my iMac being the primary. After update installed, both of my split monitors have the file menu on the top of the monitors. I went into the system menu under display and everything is as it should be yet I cannot remove the file menu from my secondary monitors....

Thanks for the info however this still didnt solve the issue. I unselected and closed window but no changes were detected. I re opened the mission control and the box was selected again. I still have the file menues on both secondary monitiors. After i installed the latest update from apple, the one with the new safari update, is when i started having this issue. Everything worked fine before. My computer seems to be runing much slower now and when i click to open safri, it takes about 40 seconds to open safari..On both secondary monitiors, the file menues operate as if they are the main monitor, which my imac should be operating as the main....This is anoying...

How do I use my Macbook pro retina display as a monitor for a PC?

Unfortunately, that is not possible. The computer only can "output" your display image, it cannot "input" an image from an external computer and display it on your MacBook's retina display.

LabWindows/CVI 2013 SP2 stops working when I try to open a file using the project file menu.

I have windows 7 on my system and sometime late last year I starrted getting a Windows dialog telling me that LabWindows/CVI has stopped working when I try to open a file from the project file menu. I also get an error when I run a project debug mode and use a selectFilePopup in the code. The error says, "The program has suspended execution at address 0x75D5025E. No source line information is available." I've tried removing and reinstalling CVI to no avail. Any suggestions?

Constantin,
Thank you for your response. I've attached screnshots showing the version details for kernal32.dll and ntdll.dll. I also looked at the updates to see which might have been installed when the problem started. Unfortunately there are 15-20 updates every month. I didn't take note of when the error started to occur. At first it only affected my ability to open files from within the project (i.e. file->open->Source, etc). Then I went back to modify a project that had a SelectFilePopup and found that that wouldn't work either.

Difficulty using hardcoded swf file to display flv files

Hi,
I have created a swf player using the flvplayback component to display flv files. The document in flash is 275 pixels wide by 130px pixels long. I also have my video component (flyPlayBack) set at 275px by 100px to display the playback controls. My flash code is my simple like the following
import fl.video.*;
var myflashvars:Object = new Object();
myflashvars = this.loaderInfo.parameters;
var fullVideoPath:String = "";
for (var item:String in myflashvars)
if(item == "filename")
fullVideoPath = myflashvars[item];
videoPlayer.source = fullVideoPath;
So using the above it should play the video and does.
(1) First question is I tried playing 2 different videos in my html code.
<object classid='clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000' codebase='http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,0,0' width='275' height='130'>
<param name='allowFullScreen' value='true' />
<param name='movie' value='moviePlayer.swf' />
<param name='wmode' value='window' />
<param name='scale' value='showall' />
<param name='flashvars' value='filename=sample_sorenson2.flv' />
<embed width='275' height='130' allowFullScreen='true' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='moviePlayer.swf' pluginspage='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer' wmode='window' scale='showall' flashvars='filename=sample_sorenson2.flv' />
</object>
Just like above works fine. But I tried playing 2 different videos, the first video image is below
The second video image is below
I notice the video sizes are different but not the video player size, is this to do a thing called aspect ratio? Is it possible to change this using my simple actionscript code above?
(2) I also tried the full screen button but the video only takes up part of the screen, as shown below. sorry about image size.
Is this a common occurance, is there a way to access the buttons on the flyplayback instance using actionscript and overridding the behaviour? Any advice upon my current situation would be much appreciated. Thanks.

To me the first two screen shots look like you set the wrong aspect ratio/screen size. I don't see any scaling of the player at all... only black bars on sides because the video didn't fill the entire video player display.
And yes, there is a much more powerful and versatile means of displaying Flash video, called NetStream. You can design your own player and have better control over the display. I always use NetStream rather than the FLVPlayback.
But if you are having sizing issues introduced during the creation of the video... then the player itself is not necessarily going to fix that. You need to know the correct display size and aspect ratio for each video you plan to display.
However, you can somewhat adjust the display size for each video using some actionscript... as you see here:
http://www.cataractvideo.com/cv/physicians/cataract_surgery.html
an example of a larger (high brandwidth) version and a smaller (lower bandwidth) version... depending on which button you click.
More on NetStream:

Here is a great tutorial on building your own NetStream video player:

When using 2 monitors, Finder always displays on primary monitor even after dragging to 2nd monitor.

How can I set Finder to display to 2nd monitor. I drag it to the second monitor, but it still display on primary monitor when next opened.

Thank you for your reply. No other program behaves this way, even PhotoShop CS4. It is related to how the program handles OS events.
It is probably a problem with the Windows WM_GETMINMAXINFO and WM_SIZE handlers. My guess is that program stores the maximized size (and it always fills the screen at start-up) and it query to see if it is dragged to a larger screen.
Of course, this theory doesn't address the disappearing program behavior when maximized on the secondary monitor. Since I don't have another OS, I cannot check if it is Vista related or Windows related. Because of the difference in architecture, I'd be surprised if it happened on a Mac, too.

Firefox 3.6.13 - Why, when I use the dropdown File menu to open a new window, does FF open my Home Page tabs? All I want is a blank page.

I have four tabs in my home page:
2 - https://mail.google.com/mail/;
1 - http://us.mg5.mail.yahoo.com/dc/launch;
1 - http://www.facebook.com/login.php
When I use the "File" drop-down menu I want only a blank page, but I get the four tabs. How go I get other New Windows to open as blank pages?

A new window open by default with the Home page(s), tabs open a blank page.
The only ways to avoid opening a new window with the home page is either to set the home page to about:blank (ie disabling the home page) or use a bookmark with the location set to about:blank and use Shift + left-click to open that link in a new window.

Captivate 6 startup admin prompt always appearing and file menu display issues

Hi,
Product: Adobe Captivate 6.1
WinVer: Win7x64
Our users are non local administrators. At startup they get the below screen as expected:
The problem is the screen always appears at startup, even if they check the "Don't show" box.
Secondly the menu doesn't display when Captivate 6 is launched unless maximized:
I've also noticed when the above issues exist Adobe Captivate 6 isnt creating\writing the files "C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Adobe\Captivate 6.0\info.cpi" or "C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Adobe\Captivate 6.0\objects\objects.cpo".
Both the above issues can be fixed if the user goes into the preferences menu and unselects "Startup message in Microsoft Windows Vista/Win7".
The problem here though is the users dont know to do this and they shouldnt have to. Is there a way to set this option unchecked in preferences by default or to get the initial admin dialog checkbox option to work correctly?
Thanks,
David

Hi Dave,
Thanks for reaching Adobe Community Help. Please accept my sincere apologies for the same.
In order to disable the startup admin box permanently go to Edit > Preferences > General Settings > Confirmation Messages and unchek "Startup message in Microsoft Windows Vista/Win7".
But the Don't show button works just fine as well.
Is it not working on one machine or all the machines?
Thanks!

How do you use a drop down menu to populate other fields?

I am creating a PDF that upon choosing from a list of People their address, phone, etc will automatically come in the remaining fields, or if a new person is choosen than you can add names address phone and it will save for future referrence ?
Any help would be appreciated,
THank you

Thanks for your comment.
Try doing this:
Connect the form to a database and bind the fields in the form to the associated nodes in the data source so the data values automatically appear in the bound fields when a name is selected in the list.
Add scripting to the list of names so the associated fields for address and phone number appear only when the user enters a new name and needs the other fields to enter new data.
If that doesn't work, please provide more information about what you are trying to do. For example, here are a few questions to consider:
Q. What object are you using for the list?
Q. You say you want to be able to choose a person from a list of People, and their address, phone, etc automatically appears in the remaining fields address and phone number. What do you mean by etc. That is, exactly what objects are you planning to use for the other fields, and how many fields are there in total?
Q. Is your form connected to a data base, which can supply the data values for the address and phone number fields.
Q. What do you mean by 'a new person is chosen'. Normally the options on a list are pre-determined and added when you create the form. Do you want users to be able to add a new name to the list, and then enter that person's address and phone number in some adjacent fields?
Have a look at these sections in the Help to gain a better understanding of what's involved:

Is it possible to use an iMac as a display for other machine?

It looks like my 2009 iMac 27" is slowing right down, is there a way to use it as a monitor for say a mac mini, or even as a second display to a new iMac?

Take a look at this link, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3924

Show full file name in File Open Recent Files menu.

I would like to be able to see the full file name in the File > Open Recent Files menu. With long file names, I cannot differentiate between the file I want to edit and the series of images I exported - they all look the same when truncated. (Mac)

I'm working in CS6 on Windows and wondering exactly the same thing. I usually export PDFs or JPGs of current work using the same or very similar names for tracking purposes but trying to open recent files then becomes a game of trying to figure out which of the various identically-truncated file names actually corresponds to the file I want to reopen.
Is there a way to get Illustrator to display the FULL file name in the Open Recent Files menu?

Java applet runs inside html page when opened with http, but no longer with "Open File" menu, why?

Using the "Open File" menu, file:///Users/234866H/Documents/atom/atomic1.html fails to open the java applet atomic1.class inside atomic.html. However, http://atom.curtin.edu.au/igor/atom/atomic1.html works just fine.
I suspect the problem arose following the recent java upgrade. It is also there on Safari.
Testing Java at http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp yields:
"Your Java is working. Your Java configuration is as follows: Vendor: Apple Inc. Version: Java SE 6 Update 51 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6.8 Java Architecture: 64-bit"
However, this is an http test, and not an "Open File" test.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, I don't know about this specifically but this is what I would try.
Instead of the string "\u7834\u70C2\u7269\u7A0B\u5E8F\u5458..."
Set the encoding type in the String constructor first...
ie:
new String( "\u7834\u70C2\u7269\u7A0B\u5E8F\u5458...","GB18030");
Here is a little class I whipped up to show the CharSets that are available to you..
public class ShowAllCharSets
ShowAllCharSets()
Map myMap = Charset.availableCharsets();
Iterator iterator = myMap.keySet().iterator();
   while (iterator.hasNext())
      System.out.println("Char set name = "+((String)it.next()));
public static void main(String args[])
   new ShowAllCharSets();
}Then use the preset charset String with the specific encoding already set for your menu items.
GB18030 I picked arbitrarily because it is Chinese and you may have to try another.
Good Luck!

How can I remove items from the open a recent file menue.

How can I remove items from the "Open a Recent File" menue. Many other applications allow the clearing of that file . Is this possible in Adobe Reader 10.1.2 ? If so how?

See this previous topic: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3759596
It is for Acrobat, but the registry entries are similar for Reader.
