New windows minimise while I'm using it

Every time I open a new firefox window (ctrl-N or right click -> Open in New Window), I start using the new browser window, scrolling etc, and about 3 seconds after using the the window minimises and I'm looking at whatever was underneath (usually my original browser window).

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Is there a way I can make Messages pop up chats in new windows by default like iChat used to ?

Is there a way I can make Messages pop up chats in new windows by default like iChat used to ? I really hate the new way all of my chats are in one window and I have to manually open them in a new window. I miss having them pop up in a new window as people contact me.

Hi,
The Chats can be double clicked off the Messages window into a separate window and then the Messages window closed.
What can't be done is to start the chats in new windows.
It also pays not to use th DOCK icon to "read" new messages when the DOCK badge shows as this reopens the Mesages main window.

I have just transferred elements 11 to a new windows 7 64 bit computer using the original purchased disc. Organiser is working fine, but I cant get the Editor to open at all.

I have just transferred elements 11 to a new windows 7 64 bit computer using the original purchased disc. Organiser is working fine and all my photos are there, but I cant get the Editor to open. It just says editor workspace is loading and then it eventually gives up.

Try opening directly from your desktop, by passing the welcome screen.
Go to Windows Explorer>C drive>Program Files (x86)>Adobe>Photoshop elements 11. Right click, then Send to>Desktop
Double click on the shortcut and see it will open.

Open PDF's in new window in document library when using "Find a file" search

I need to be able to open PDF's in a new window from a document library when using the "Find a file" search built into the document library "All documents" view. I currently have the following javascript on the page:
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("setTargetBlank()");
function setTargetBlank()
{ $("a[href$='.pdf']").removeAttr('onclick').attr("target", "_blank");
This works great when going to the document library and navigating through the folders then clicking on a link.
The problem is when someone goes to the document library then uses the "Find a file" search and then they click on a link. The "Find a file" search does not do a postback (reload) of the page, therefore my javascript to find the PDF links
and make them open in a new window does not run for the links on the page.
I have read the following article but this does not seem to offer a solution that will work in this situation for SharePoint 2013 (Office 365): http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/7ad3224c-3165-47ae-95bc-4f3928e2f9a8/opening-document-library-pdf-in-a-new-window-sharepoint-2013?forum=sharepointgeneral
I suppose the idea solution would be to somehow tap into the event that is fired when using "Find a file" search to run my javascript and update the links for the search results.
Can anyone offer any solutions to this issue?

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to open PDF files in a new window from a document library when using the "Find a file" search.
As you said, the "Find a file" search does not do a postback (reload) of the page, therefore JavaScript to find the PDF links and make them open in a new window does not run for the links on the page.
I recommend to use JS link to achieve the goal. Create a JavaScript override file and upload the JavaScript file to the Master Page Gallery, and then set the JS Link property of the document library web part to point to the JavaScript file.
Here are some links about the JS link in SharePoint 2013 for you to take a look:

My pinned tab for Firfox 4, for Window 7 keeps creating new windows. When it never used to. Why is it making another window when I already have a tab at the bottom?

My pinned tab for Firefox 4, for Window 7 keeps creating new windows when I click it. When it never used to. Why is it making another window when I already have a tab at the bottom?

Hmmm, mine stack up over the pinned icon as you would expect (Win7Pro x64). Is there anything special about the way you're starting up Firefox? Security sandbox? Using any command-line switches?

How do I open Windows Media Player 11 in a new window via labview 8.5 using ActiveX

Hello,
Although familiar with Labview, I am new to the ActiveX Controls. I have managed to open and play movie files in Labview with ActiveX controls but the player is embedded in Labview's front panel. How can I control what file is played and when it starts in Labview but have Windows media player 11 open in a separate window.
Additionally, where can I find a description of the ActiveX properties.
Thank you

I'm trying to accomplish this same thing and am having a hell of a time finding the right Class, right Methods, and/or right Properties for a solution. Some classes seem to return obscure errors when I try to create them use the invoke node "launchURL" (the WMPLib.ICore for example). If I use the Player base class (which MSDS says is the root class and the class that is used when you create an embedded player) I don't get anything.
What I would like is to progmatically launch Windows Media Player to play a particular video clip in full screen on the secondary monitor. It seems like this should work:
But doesn't... any ideas for this? The C# examples are difficult to understand for me. Also, the WMP class library is a MESS! (IMHO). Thanks for your input.

Can Viruses on Windows Run While I am Using OSX

Hi,
Today I ran a Clamxav virus scan on my windows bootcamp partition while using my normal OSX operating system. The scan detected a Trojan.agent in the official google chrome (downloaded from google.com) and a Trojan in the official steam app (both on windows). And then I suddenly remembered one of the reasons I switched to mac D: .
Suddenly in my time of need my mac crashes on me in my time of need, possibly because of a memory shortage as the activity monitor when I last checked it said that my scan (that was still running) was apparently using 96% of my memory. Anyway now it's crashed and my whole mac has become unresponsive. I don't want to shut my computer down manually incase if any of my files get corrupted because of the scan being force shut down.
So my computer is running on OSX but my question is if any of the viruses on my windows partition can still run and communicate information to their 'master' as there is still a supply of electricity? Sorry if its obvious.
Also here are some bonus questions: 1. How could a trusted source e.g. Google and Steam contain viruses if they are downloaded from the original source? and
2. Can iOS devices get viruses and I know this is probably in the wrong but 3. What anti-virus scanner and remover tool do you recommend for windows. The only one I am familiar with is Kaspersky?
Many thanks

Here's a positive thing: Windows viruses can't run on OS X, but they can be transferred from OS X to other PCs (only if you have them on the OS X volume).

You could get a virus from a different source that infected Steam and Chrome without any problem. Viruses normally try to infect as many files and programmes as possible.

iPhones, iPads and iPods touch can't get viruses but they can transfer them to other PCs. For Windows, I recommend Microsoft Security Essentials

Youtube identified my Safari 6.0 as IE6, and some websites even identified my OS as Window XP while I am using mountain lion. I wonder what is going on?

When I go to Youtube, it said "You are using Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 web browser. YouTube is ending support for Internet Explorer 7 soon, update your browser now", but I am using Safari 6.0 on OSX Mountain Lion. I wonder if there is any settings cause this identification error. thanks!

I purchased a new Windows 8 PC. I have used and continue to use Outlook 2010 for my calendar. With my old Windows 7 PC and Outlook 2010, my calendar sinked properly with my Iphone 5. Now with the new Windows 8 PC, it does not. Help!

I purchased a new Windows 8 PC and I use Outlook 2010 for my calendar. With my old Windows 7 PC and Outlook 2010, my calendar would sync with my Iphone 5, but with the new Windows 8 PC and Outlook 2010, it does not, and I can't figure out how to snyc them. The emails from Outlook 2010 sync, but the calendar does not. Help! Thanks.

Easy solution for restoring lost calendar informaiton, thank goodness. On your iPhone, go to settings, then to iCloud. If your Calendar selection is turned off, turn it on. Your info should restore. If your Calendar selection is turned on, then turn it off. Choose to save calendars when asked. After it shuts the Calendar off, turn it back on. Your info should be restored.
Thank you to Apple support for walking me through this. Shame on you Apple for not just telling people about this easy fix rather than making us go through all of this pain and worry.

Finder crashes when trying to open a new window

When trying to open a new Finder window, Finder will crash and relaunch but won't open an actual new window. Neither can I use the Go To Folder menu.
I tried relaunching Finder, restarting my MacBook and repairing my disk. Unfortunately, nothing has helped so far..
Any ideas?
Small addition: I first noticed the problem while trying to open a DMG file. I don't have any reason to suspect this file is malicious though.

I faced the exact same problem.
Please check How to activate an event handler manually? Read the COMPLETE thread... especially the second last entry. Valery has given a perfect workaround for this problem.
And it works absolutely fine too !

Navneet.

New window with CSS

Just wondering:
Is there a way to style the "a" tag or other container
elements with CSS to duplicate the inline _blank and open a new
window? or is the _blank on every link that opens a new window the
best/only way?...I guess a class would add the same amount of code
anyway. Just seeking possible options for coding some links to open
a new window and some not to.
Thanks, Sue

The two approaches are most likely identical if you look at
what the
javascript is doing. I think your questions will be answered
if you go back
to Thierry's tutorials and study them....

How to open new window in UIX page

I'm using UIX for view layer. I have text input in the UIX form. When I click on a button, I want to open a new window with the URL built using the value from the input. I want to do it using javascript. Is it possible with UIX?

Hi Krishnamoorthy,
Look out the LovXXXX components demo in uix.
See <script> demo of component guide. This should help you clearly understand the functionalities.
See documentation of above UIX components
Like providing handlers to HTML elements, you can attach event handlers to UIX components too. You can attach event handlers on onClick, onMouseOver,... on UIX components just as you would do in HTML.

Button: open link in new window

Hi all!
Quick question: Is there an API to launch a URL in a new window?
I could easily use a LinkToUrl (with target=_TOP), but would like to use a button for aesthetic reasons.
Thanks,
faB

hi,
1. create an action
2. link this action to button
3. On action method add something like below;
     IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createExternalWindow(
     "http://<yourlink>", "<window title>", false);
     window.open();

Oracle Report in New window with submit

Hello, I'm in urgent need of an example on how submit a page and open a Oracle Report in a new window. I've searched the forum and found similiar threads, but not exactly what I need. Basically, I have an html page with cascading LOVs in which the user can cascade down until they get to the report (oracle report) they will like to generate. I'm using Patrick's ApexLib for my cascading LOVs. The user can also pick a date range via a Date Picker. I need the page to submit so that paramters from the LOVs and Date Picker can be passed to the Oracle Report. The Oracle Report needs to open in a new window. Currently I'm using a button item using a branch which runs the report fine, but it comes up in the same page. Can someone point me in the right direction as to how to accomplish this? Thanks in advance for your help!
Lou

Hi Lou,
you don't have to submit the page. If you have all the values on your page in HTML input fields you are fine. You would only submit it if you want to do some additional processing on the server to calculate values, ...
So just create a button with "Redirect URL without submitting page",
set "Target is a" to "URL" and use the following code in the "URL Target" property.
javascript:popupURL('http://your_oracle_report_url/regionid='+$x('P4_REGION_ID').value+'city='+$x('P4_CITY').value);The $x('some_page_item').value is used in JavaScript to reference the current value of an HTML field. Use the same identifier as you have used for your item in APEX.
Hope that helps
Patrick
