Multiple im windows question.

i use the tabbed window view when im chatting it up with my friends. My problem is when im talking to more than 4-5 people it becomes increasingly annoying to constantly have to click on each persons name to respond. My question is: is there a way to quickly switch between members i am chatting with using a keyboard shortcut? any insight would be greatly appreciated!

I think apple/command + { or } key combination will advance or reverse your location through the chat tabs.
My iChat is currently out of commission or I would confirm this personally but if you could test it and report back that would be nice as well.

  • SCCM 2012 R2: easy way to disable/enable MULTIPLE maintenance windows at once?

    I have been racking my brain on this one for a while.
    Scenario: you have an ADR set up that is deploying updates once a month. You have multiple collections set up that each have their own special maintenance window (example: 1st weekend - sat - 8-9pm)
    Then, one week you are asked to not deploy updates for the upcoming weekend. Well, the ADR already ran and the machines for "1st weekend" are just waiting for the maintenance window to open. Now, at this point you can obviously go into EACH collection
    associated with "1st weekend" and disable the maintenance window. But if you are asked to do this often and/or you have multiple collections with maintenance windows this could be a hassle.
    Is there a way to easily enable and disable multiple maintenance windows at a time?
    GUI: I have not found a way to select multiple collections and disable all MWs
    PowerShell-module: set-CMMaintenanceWindow doesn't appear to have ability to modify "IsEnabled" property of MWs
    PowerShell-WMI: Can't find in WMI where to modify "Isenabled" Property
    Please see my other thread
    regarding PowerShell
    What other creative options are there? Disable a service via PowerShell on members of "1st Weekend" collections? Which service? Should I be looking in SQL? Where? Other options in GUI?
    I may end up getting stuck doing this manually but I want to make sure I am not overlooking something first... it's such a simple task - just seems like there should be an easy way to accomplish this.
    (And please, for the sake of my question, lets not get into the semantics of whether or not the ADR technically DEPLOYS the updates or not.)

    I didn't even think about that.... so having one MW that is disabled or having no MW at all would allow the client to install at will? I guess I was thinking that if it had a MW but it was disabled it just wouldn't update.
    The MWs on the collections are all different.
    Perhaps I need to re-assess my approach...
    The original plan was to have one ADR (patch tuesday) update 1 SUG (which is deployed to all machines) each month. Machines would then install based off MWs.
    Now I'm thinking it might be best to have 2 ADRS:
    ADR1- updates existing SUG which is already deployed to Dev/Test machines.
    ADR2- creates new SUG - which I then manually deploy to Prod collections. 
    This would automate the deployment to Non-Prod machines but it would give me the power to withhold updates to Prod machines for the month if needed.

  • Having multiple query windows open at once.

    I wasn't sure how to phrase it so after some digging I'm resorting to asking on here.
    I've been working out of the 'Joes2Pros' series and I work within SMMS with SQL standard installed locally for playing.
    Most of the time I like to have multiple query windows open to save queries to reference later just for examples.
    My question is that is there a way to ensure a query window is not using any databases so that when I run the lab setup scripts for Joes2Pros I don't encounter any errors without having to close my other query windows?
    Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

    You can accomplish this multiple ways:
    1. Have your windows open with the database context set to master (select master DB in the dropdown on the toolbar) 
    2. "USE master; go" statement as the first line in all your query windows
    3. Before you run your setup scripts, issue a kill command to terminate all other query window sessions (this will still keep the query windows open but they won't be connected to any database)

  • How do I open multiple PDF windows on microsoft Surface?

    How do I open multiple windows on microsoft Surface? I'm a grad student and would like to have multiple PDF windows open or availible while I use Microsoft Word. Is this possible?

    Other user asked a similar question a couple days ago - except the question was in French and the other app was Microsoft Excel (not Word).
    Please see the option (b) for running two apps side by side in this post.

    It may not be an ideal solution for you.  But this may be the only option you have if your device is running the Windows RT operating system.  You can install Adobe Reader XI (desktop app) if your device is running the Windows 8 operating system.

  • Photoshop 12.0.4 update - multiple open windows show wrong image

    I recently updated all my CS5 apps to the latest version. Photoshop (12.0.4) is now showing odd behaviour with multiple open windows.
    If I select View > Arrange > Float All in Windows (or drag a tabbed window into a separate floating window) the images displayed show the same image or they mirror each other at random. For instance, if I have two images showing an apple and an orange and float them in separate windows, sometimes both windows show an orange. If I click on the apple image, both images become apples. Click again, and the clicked image toggles (so apple.jpg shows an orange, and vica versa). This also affects new documents.
    Things I have tried:
    1. Deleting the Photoshop Settings File.
    2. Running Disk Utility permissions and disk checks.
    3. Booting from a backup clone on an external hard drive running Photoshop 12.0.2 – everything’s fine.
    One possible cause of the problem is that I’m not running an up-to-date system. I’m still on 10.6.2 (for various reasons: I’d read too many reports of problems with updates, so I decided to stay put; if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, but that could be coming back to bite me). Before I take the plunge and update to 10.6.8, can anyone suggest some basic troubleshooting or repair procedures I could try.
    Thanks
    Jim
    [Mac OS X 10.6.2, Photoshop CS5 12.0.4 x64, NVIDIA GeForce 9400]

    Yes! Switching it off and back on again seems to have fixed it.
    Many thanks!
    Incidentally, are there any major issues around CS5 and 10.6.8 that anyone knows of? I know that's a rather broad question but I wonder how many people are holding back on earlier OS versions.

  • Partial-credit scoring in multiple response and multiple hot-spot questions

    Hello everyone,
    I'm calling on your generosity in the spirit of the holidays to help out a noob.  I would like to create matching, multiple-response and multiple-hot spot questions where the user receives credit based on the number of correct answers within the question. For example, in a matching question where there are four items; if the user gets 2 out of the four items matched correctly, I would like for him to receive 2 out of 4 points.
    I understand that Captivate doesn't support partial-credit scoring of this type, but a few posts have implied that it can be done with variables. Is there anyone who can walk me through this process, or send me to a link that will walk me through it? (I've scoured these forums and tried the Cp tutorials, to no avail.) And if it's not asking too much, please make it understandable to someone who has very little experience with variables.
    Thanks, and Merry Christmas.

    (Running CP 5 on Windows Vista)

    Hello,
    I did publish an article more specific on partial scoring, perhaps this could help you:
    Partial scores and customized feedback
    And since you are asking for more basic information, on my blog I point to some other articles to explain the meaning of variables with/without advanced actions. Feel free to have a look (there are more postings about advanced actions and links to articles over there):

  • Can't open multiple FF windows anymore

    Hey there,
    maybe two months ago I updated to FF 31.0 and then the problems started.
    The first thing I recognized, one of my AddOns didn't work as usual, but I thought
    "ok, new FF version, maybe in one or two weeks it'll work as well"
    Then I recognized that I can't open anymore multiple FF windows. Tabs works as
    usual, but there is no way to open more than one window. I tried:
    - Strg+N
    - rightclick on tab and "open in new window"
    - drag&drop tab outside of the FF window
    ... nothing works!
    A new update of my AddOn was released, but this didn't change anything.
    Then I exported my Favorites, uninstalled FF 31.0 and installed 32.0 beta.
    I reinstalled my AddOn, few days ago I installed 33.0 beta - always the same!
    Please gimme some advice =)

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    *In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>

  • Managing Multiple Dynamic Windows (AJAX/HTML)

    Looking for a little direction on managing multiple dynamic windows. Creating windows that can be identified, and altered potentially, from the main window. Also, testing to see if a window already exists.
    Any help in idenitifying windows would be great. Just looking for a little insight to get me going.
    Thanks

    I figured out a way around the dynamic window references. Not truly the ideal solution however it works. I essentially created an array just for window instances. On window creation, I add a reference to it within my window array. Then reference the array to see if the window reference exists. If so, then do nothing. If not, then I can create the new window. On close of the dynamically generated windows, I remove the reference to it from my window array.
    It works, but I feel this is not the most ideal way to do it. If there is another solution or approach that may be easier please feel free to add it.

  • What could be causing my multiple response survey question to show a non-response in LMS report?

    I have a 10 question survey that has been running fine and providing accurate responses in reports generated from my LMS. I made a property change to a multiple response type question that is now causing the reports to show a date/time (2003-01-01  18:00:00) response instead of the actual multiple responses the user made. The change I made to the question was to change the "Numbers property from" [ a), b), c) ] to [ 1), 2), 3) ]. This property change did not affect the reported responses for the single response questions, only the multi-response. This problem occured Using Captivate 4. I then tried using the same properties in Captivate 5.5 thinking it was a bug in CP4, but got the same results. Has anyone else run into this issue? I'm going to bring this to the attention of my LMS provider, but want to make sure CP is clean first.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    First things first. I am not an LMS expert, so this is not about troubleshooting.
    However, to ensure that your course works fine on a SCORM-compliant LMS, you can upload it to cloud.scorm.com and test it out. If the course works fine there, rest assured that it will work fine on any SCORM-compliant LMS. If your LMS team comes back with an issue after this, you can counter them with this evidence that the problem is with the LMS and not your course.

  • In 4.0.1, if I have multiple firefox windows open, when I try to close one window, it closes all. Why can't I close just one window at a time?

    I open multiple Firefox windows so that I can quickly Alt+Tab between windows instead of using my mouse to point to tabs. When I close one of my Firefox windows, the browser closes all my windows. What happen to the "Close" feature under the File tab? Why don't I have the option to close only one window at a time?

    I don't understand what happened above, but ericn1, wasn't your problem that you tried to close one browser window using the red X, and ALL of them closed? How did any of the above help you solve your problem? jscher2000 gave you alternate methods of closing windows but said that closing a window with the red X "should" work. It doesn't work, because it is closing ALL your windows, not just the one you are clicking on. I am now having the same problem. with Firefox.
    Understand I do not have the problem with any other program. In other words, I can open multiple windows in Paint Shop Pro, IE, Notepad, etc. and close one with the red X and all others remain open. It ONLY happens when using the Firefox browser.
    The red X should close only the window that you are in when you click on it.
    NOW, before someone suggests tabs, I don't like them and don't use them. My choice. Before someone says my browser is out-of-date, (3.6.13) I am using it because it was the last version that worked reliably on my computers, both at home (Windows 7 Professional) and my office (Windows XP Professional).
    When I updated to the last Firefox browser, both computers started seizing up (nothing worked and had to reboot using power button) Removing that version of Firefox and going back to this version solved that problem. Fact remains, version has little to do with this problem. I've seen other posts around the net about this with different (newer) versions of Firefox.
    So . . . does anyone have a solution to this that doesn't involve using keystrokes or hot keys to close windows instead of the red X that should work properly?

  • Why do multiple Download windows pop up when I download a PDF or other file?

    Everytime I try to download a file (PDF, JPG, DOC) that was attached to an email (I am using Outlook WebMail) the document will download fine HOWEVER eight (8!!!) or more Download windows pop up as if I tried to download that file eight (or more) times.
    So then I have to "X" out of each window after downloading one file. It is the same file listed on each popup window.
    Since this is a new problem I tried shutting down the computer and restart but not successful.
    Firefox 26.0
    Any help...PLEASE!?!?!?

    THANKS Waka_Flocka_Flame!!!
    (I pressed the "Problem Solved" button however it did not give me a chance to type anything so I found the thread and pressed "Reply")
    Anyhoo...I went to Safe Mode and Firefox worked great. Went back to regular mode and again multiple Download windows when trying to download a file.
    I then did as you suggested and poked around in the Add Ons and there was something called Download Manager Tweak that was upgraded last week and that was when the problems started. I got rid of it and my Downloads are working great.
    THANKS AGAIN!!!

  • Best way to manage multiple Help windows

    Hi all:
    I'm working with X5 to create Help for a large modular
    application. I have a single Help project, but want to deliver help
    content only for the specific modules used by clients. I'm
    attemtping to create multiple Help windows with a Main window
    containing Help for standard deliverables and other windows
    containing Help for specific modules. What's the best way to
    achieve this using a single project. Or do I have to maintain
    multiple projects?
    I tried using customized windows but there are some
    limitations. I manually created a new hhc file for a custom window
    and it's working fine. But, I cannot open the custom window by
    clicking a book in the TOC (which is what I want) of the main
    window but can do so by clicking a topic. Also, I cannot assign
    separate default topics for each custom window. Further, when I
    click a hyperlink in a custom window that links to a topic in the
    main window, the topic from the main window displays in the custom
    window but it's not listed in the TOC of the custom window, so
    that's awkward.
    Please help!!!
    Romeo Coutinho

    From the user's point of view a merged set of help files is
    probably the best solution. Using global windows the whole help
    system is displayed in one window and shows only topics for the
    modules installed (if you can get your setup people to comply with
    your wishes that is ;-) ).
    Handling multiple projects is not more complicated than
    handling a big one. Each help topic only exits in one project; if
    you want to create or update the help for module XYZ_1, you open
    project XYZ_1. If you want to edit a topic in the project Master,
    you open project Master. After editing a project you compile just
    this module and nothing else.
    The only thing you have to learn are the peculiarities of the
    help compiler regarding merged projects. Refer to
    http://www.helpware.net/htmlhelp/how_to_merge.htm
    for a good description of these kinks.

  • ITunes 11 bug - no more multiple playlist windows

    Hi - Please Apple, restore the multiple window feature in iTunes so I can copy between playlists and easily add individual songs from a CD to a playlist.
    Why would this useful feature be removed from iTunes?
    I can only think that someone forgot to give the "multiple open windows" use-cases to the people testing iTunes 11.
    I mean, really!

    1.  This is not a bug.
    2.  Apple doesn't respond on these forums.  It's a user to user support forum.

  • Viewing multiple application windows simultaneously

    Is it possible to view (float) multiple application windows simultaneously on a MacBook. For example, I am viewing a tutorial on Firefox while working on an image in Photoshop at the same time to try out the suggestions in the tutorial. I have to shift from one application to the other (command + tab) to go back and forth to view one or the other window. It would be great to be able to "float" a window from Firefox over the Photoshop window so I could read the tutorial while working in Photoshop. Right now, if I click on one application, it covers over the other application completely, requiring that I switch back and forth between the two. If an application window (Firefox tutorial) could float above the other one (Photoshop image), I could read the tutorial while still working on the Photoshop image.
    Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
    [email protected]

    You could resize the windows so that both fit on the screen. Granted the screen size doesn't afford a lot of space for this so I have come up with 2 different methods for solving this problem. One is using Spaces. If application A is on one Space and B is on another, using a hot corner or keystroke can change from A to B quickly. My other solution was adding a 21.5" monitor to my work station giving me enough screen real estate for multiple window display.

  • Open multiple playlist windows?

    It doesn't seem that I can open multiple playlist windows in version 11. I'm a massage therapist and broadcast, via the Griffin Rocket, my music to all the radios in the house. I chose different playlists for different clients and need to switch playlists for different clients which I could do easily by having multiple iTunes windows open.
    Now I can't? I just used to click on the playlist icon, and a new iTunes window would open.
    Paul

    There is one way that I have found to open up two windows - but only two windows, and it's extremely limited functionality.
    In the iTunes "Window" menu, just check "Mini Player" (if you're currently in the full iTunes window) or check "iTunes" if you're currently in the miniplayer. Do NOT click "Switch to MiniPlayer"
    That opens up  second window, so you have both the full window and the miniplayer open. Which still stinks, but you can use the "search" tool in the miniplayer to at least partially browse around and minipulate music (using the pop up menus) while referring to playlists etc. in the main window.
    Very dissatisfying, but at least it's something.
