No "Open" optio in IE, "Save" and "Cancel" only

I have an issue with a machine that does not give me to option to open a pdf when clicking on a link or and email pdf. I have uninstalled/reinstalled the reader and uninstalled IE7 and all the other tricks and tips generally associated with this issue, nothing seems to work in IE though. Firefox opens the pdf straight away. The machine is obviously Windows, XP Pro, SP3 as are the other machines in the office, it's just this one and it just would be the bosses machine wouldn't it. Any input would be grately received, many thanks.

I think I remember seeing there is a separate plug-in just for Firefox, since Acrobat has the full integration with IE. I have so many browser issues because I run multiple versions that I don't even want to try to help, unfortunately. Keep googling though, the IE issue is fairly common, you will find the solution that works for you.

I need to install Adobe Flash Player but there is no RUN to click on to download to the Programs Folder. Only Save and Cancel.

I just installed Firefox after many problems with IE and when I try to manually install Flash Player it says to click on RUN in the box. I have 2 choices - Save and Cancel. If anyone can help me with this I need it simple because this is totally new to me on Firefox.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Can not open iCloud on MBP? Want to PhotoShare. Set up in iPhone. Go to System Preferences, click on iCloud, get the message "move to iCloud", sign in, click on open iCloud", sign in again, and get only FindmyPhone?

Set up in iPhone. Go to System Preferences, click on iCloud, get the message "move to iCloud", sign in, click on open iCloud", sign in again, and get only FindmyPhone? Thus, when I go to Iphoto to set up photo sharing, it says I have to have icloud account-go to sys preferences--then i go through the loop again? Suggestions?

You're not going to be able to: you can't merge accounts or transfer iTunes purchases from one Apple ID to another: but there is no problem about using two IDs.
Use your ex-MobileMe email address (which is also an Apple ID) for iCloud for syncing email, contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and PhotoStream.
Use your other Apple ID as before for iTunes, iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match.
There's no conflict about doing this, and you won't even notice as Keychain will log you in with the correct ID in each case. It's also better security not to have your iTunes login also your email address, given the number of complaints about hacked iTunes accounts.

After having shut down after installing updates, when I restarted and tried to open a word file, it started opening ALL the word docs and the only way I could stop it was by"force quit" arted and tried to open

After having shut down after installing updates, when I restarted and tried to open a word doc, it started opening ALL the word docs and the only way I could stop it was by"force quit" . This is REALLY annoying!!

May be it is the Resume feature.

Uncheck the box next to "Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps".
Best.

Save and Cancel are being cut off below the screen

Hi,
I'm trying to download a pdf that has opened in the Safari browser. Cmd Shft S for 'Save As.'
The "Save" and the "Cancel" buttons are cut off below the screen. This has happened in iTunes and I simply go to Window > Zoom and it's fixed. In Safari, I can't access the Zoom, it doesn't do anything. I end up having to hit "Return" just to get control of the screen back.
Here's how it looks...

HI,
Can you drag the bottom right corner of the Safari window to the left then click and hold the title bar and move the window to the right?
You can zoom in Safari on your keyboard, Command + or -

How do I get firefox to run a link to a setup.exe when I click on it? It only offers save and cancel.

I have a program with an HTML based installer having a link to a setup.exe on the intall disk. When I click on the link, a dialog appears showing the name and path of the setup.exe file but only providing buttons to save or cancel.

This is a security feature which helps prevent the spread of viruses. If you want to bypass this security feature you can use an add-on such as [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/10329/ RunDownload] or [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/10902/ OpenDownload].

Save and Cancel Functionality in WebDynpro application with Adobe Forms

Hi,
I want to create an application with Adobe Interactive forms. This application will have 3 buttons: Save As Draft, Submit and Cancel.
This application also involves Workflow.
On Save As Draft, the form will be saved for later viewing. How can I achieve this functionality? Does UWL support Save As Draft feature.
On Submit, workflow is triggered and form is routed for approval.
On Cancel, the form is deleted from the system and cannot be retrieved. How can I get this functionality?
Issue: How to achieve Save As Draft and Cancel functionality?

It works well en SP 21.

Can't 'open' any pdf but 'save and open' always works

I have installed the latest versions of Win7 and Acrobat, without any improvement.

Actually, provide the specific steps you are using. The problem may be an OS option, not Acrobat. To say you can not open the PDF, we would normally assume you have opened Acrobat and selected File>Open. If that is not the case, be specific about what you are doing.

PresaveAction() Popup message box with save and cancel button

Hi,
I want to give user an option from popup box with the message "Are you sure to Save you record".
I got below javascript code but don't know how to show two buttons on popup if user wants to recheck before final saving then he should click CANCEL otherwise SAVE button.
<script type="text/javascript">
function PreSaveAction()
alert("Your request has been submitted");
return true;
</script>
Please advise in above code.

Hi,
For your requirement, you can use the JavaScript Confirm Box which will contains two buttons in a popup window.
Here is a demo about checking the value in the “Title” field, if it equals “asdf”, then a Confirm box will come out, then user will be able to choose whether to save or not.
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
function PreSaveAction()
var txtStatus = $j(":input[title='Title']").val();
if(txtStatus == "asdf")
alert("Invalid Input");
var r=confirm("Are you sure to Save you record?");
if (r==false)
var statusfocus = $j(":input[title='Title']");
statusfocus .focus();
return false;
else
return true;
</script>
Feel free to reply if there still any questions about this.

My toolbar will only open when I press alt and then only the top line

the complete top toolbar is not visable on any web page. to use file print history or bookmark I have to press ALT. the top line then disapears when a website is chosen. I then have to repeat this for every bookmark choice.

No option to Open downladed file - just Save As or Cancel options

If you want to download any file in IE11 there is no option to OPEN the file. Only two options are to SAVE or Cancel no option to OPEN.
The question: Is there a way to set IE11 via GPO to show the OPEN option in addition to SAVE and Cancel options.

Hi,
what type of file?
File types have an 'opener' application associated with them... for example pdf documents (*.pdf) are opened in an ActiveX PDF view application...outcomes for ActiveX 'openers' can in turn be affected by say your Adobe PDF Reader settings or your IE ActiveX
Filtering settings.
additionally there are security zone settings that affect opening and downloading different file types... some file types are recognised as dangerous (eg. exe, com, pif, mdb)...
You GPO security zone templates may affect client outcomes.... Ensure the client is accepting the default IE Security zone settings (Security tab of internet Options>Click "reset all zones to default")

How can i reset my download setting, to its orignial form. ie: with the option to save and open files

How can i open files, instead of having them just save.
there was a option with save or open, and normally i open
but i clicked save and i have tried several ways to fix it, none of them work.
any and all help would be nice
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== just now

hello, gmail should be one of the predefined actions for the mailto-protocol.
does it shop up when you try the following?:
go to ''firefox > help > troubleshooting information'', click on ''profile folder/show folder'' and close all firefox windows afterwards. a windows explorer window should open up - in there rename/delete the file named '''mimetypes.rdf''' - it will be regenerated again the next time you launch the browser.

No "Open" optio in IE, "Save" and "Cancel" only
