Not Capturing All Open Windows

When recording and a new window is open (within the same app
or screen capture), Captivate doesn't always capture the newly open
window. Any suggestions.

Hi N2TheFire,
Hit "Prt Scr" (or whatever key you re-mapped it to) while
recording to manually capture the extra snapshots. That's the only
way to capture things like mouser-over text and other
non-event-driven changes.
The alternative is to use F9/F10 to start and stop full
motion recording when you know there's going to be a whole sequence
of automatic changes and screen updates happening between mouse
and/or key presses.
Andrew.

Firefox.exe*32 not closing down when i sutdown all open windows so I have to close it through taskmanager

firefox.exe*32 not closing down when i sutdown all open windows so I have to close it through taskmanager so I can then start a new session.

Why does closing all open windows (15) and leaving only one drop ram usage from 1.5 to 1.4Gb and not more.

Why does closing all open windows (15) and leaving only one drop ram usage by only 100mb from 1.5 to 1.4Gb.
What is in this 1.4 gb ?
I don't care much about ram, It's just that cpu usage spike like crazy by the end.

Hi musicfan,<br />Sorry you are having problems with Firefox. Maybe you should have asked earlier and we could have fixed it.
Reading your comments I do not see that rolling back to an insecure Firefox 22 will actually help you much. You are probably best using IE, unless you have also damaged that.
*[[Export bookmarks to Internet Explorer]]
You should not use old versions they are insecure. Security fixes are publicised and exploitable.
* [[Install an older version of Firefox]]

Most others will not be having such problems. We are now able to say that with confidence because after developers missed a regression in Firefox 4 telemetry was introduced so that data was obtained. It may be an idea to turn on your telemetry, if you have not already done so, and decide to stick with Firefox.

Trying safe mode takes seconds. Unfortunatly if you are not willing to do even rudimentary troubleshooting there is not anything we can do to help you.

Seeing all open windows in 10.7

I just upgraded from 10.6.8 to 10.7.5. I miss being able to use a hot corner to see all open windows. I cannot find that in 10.7. Does anyone know where it is?

Thank you, brenden dv. I found that and used the hot corners to show the windows open, grouped by application. One thing that confused me was that the Help Center window stayed front and center, even though I was clicking on other windows. When I closed that window, then the correct application window opened up front.
However, the problem remains that all the windows are grouped by application, and it is almost impossible to tell which window is which when I have 3 or 4 windows open from one application, since they are stacked so tightly on top of one another. This means that I often cannot get to the window I want.
Grouping windows by application makes no sense from a user point of view. When I want to get to a certain file, I do not think, "Oh, that is a Word doc, I better get to Word." No, I just want to see my doc and click on it. Who still organizes all their files by the application that created it? No one I know.
OS 10.6.8 had a hot corner that showed icons or large thumbnails of all open windows, all shown separately on the desktop, so all one had to do was go to the hot corner, find the window and click on it, and voilå, that was your window, front and center. I cannot find that in 10.7.
Thanks for the help.

F9 Key – Tile or un-tile all open windows (for quick selection and access)?

This not working for me. How can I see all open windows?
Thanks

Here is one option for $1.99.

I am able to set my windows where I want them and the next time I start up, they return to the same place, except for Word.

Computer goes on standby and crashes all open windows.

When my computer goes on standby, all open windows (word, chrome, excel) crash and reopen. Word appears with a solid orange or dark yellow. How can I stop this from happening?
It might happen most often when the screen is being projected during the work day.
This problem has only been occuring since I updated to Mavericks a few weeks ago.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

I am using iphoto 6.0.6 and after opening the application it drops below the dock. I can see it when I use expose to reveal all open windows but once selected it drops below the dock.

I am using iphoto 6.0.6 and after opening the application it drops below the dock. I can see it when I use expose to reveal all open windows but once selected it drops below the dock.

Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
(On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
(Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

An OS before 10.10 provided shortcut f10 to "show all open windows". How do we do that with 10.10?

It Has been very convenient at times to review all open windows, especially when working on multiple projects that clutter the desktop. Without the f10 shortcut, I can't easily find my way through the mishmash piled high on my desktop. How do we "show all open windows" with Yosemite??

I'm guessing you are referring to "Mission Control" - the keyboard shortcut for this is set in "System Preferences" then "Mission Control" and I think the default when the system is first setup is F3, not F10. So check out "System Preferences" and see what it currently is and if you want to change it to the F10 go ahead and change it there, along with any of the other shortcuts you might have had before with the previous OS X version.
Good luck...

Howto close all open windows?

Hi,
I am developing some kind of library, and I would like to close all open windows, dialogs, tooltips in the error case.
The problem is I don't have control about the windows currently open, many are instantiated by plug-ins.
Is there a way to get a list of all windows? This way I could go throw the list and simply call dispose() on all.
Thank you in advance, Clemens

One possible approach could be trying to track AWT event. I would try to get notified as each Component is added and maintained in a hashtable.
getToolkit().addAWTEventListener (aWTEventListener, AWTEvent.COMPONENT_EVENT_MASK | AWTEvent.CONTAINER_EVENT_MASK);
AWTEventListener aWTEventListener = new AWTEventListener()
public void eventDispatched (AWTEvent Event)
// find the component from event source and record it.
};

Find names of all open windows including other applications besides LabView VIs

Hi All, I have researched this subject, i.e., to find names of all open windows including other applications besides LabView VIs, but found no solution. Could someone suggest a solution to this? Thanks.

Hi,
Certainly! The Windows API Function Utilities (32-bit) for LabVIEW includes set of LabVIEW libraries (llb) with VIs that make calls to the Windows Application Programming Interface (API) for managing and controlling windows (minimize, maximize, move, resize, rename, close, and so on) including task list with names of windows application running. The Readme.doc contains information on running these VIs.
Attached below is a zipped file with a VI that list the names of all opened windows.

Close all open windows at same time

Is there any way to close all open programs at once, rather than having to do them one at a time?

I don't know of a way to close all open apps at the same time, but i do know of a way to close all open windows in a particular app at one time, ie: safari
Hold down Option when you click on the red close button at the top of one of those windows, and it will close all windows *for that app*...but doing so doesn't necessarily quit the app.
The only other thing i can think of you can do is hold down Command, Option, and Esc to get the Force Quit window to open, (or access it from the Apple menu at the top left corner) and then you can select one at a time all the apps and force quit them individually...it's still quicker than switching between each app individually..

Close all open windows

Is there any way to close all open windows at once? I cannot find any way to do so. Any keyboard shortcut?

Thanks, Tom.
Your response led me to the answer I was looking for. However, I found it worked better to press command and option , then click the red close button on the top line of the top window. This closed all open windows within the application of the open window. I had to do the same thing for each application. In my test case, I opened about 10 word processor windows and 10 email windows, all at the same time. I had to do the command-option - click red button twice, once for my email application, and once for the word processor application. It took me about 2 seconds to close all of the open windows.
Thanks a lot for your instructions.

I want to reset Firefox, and the message is that something is preventing the reset. I have closed all open windows and I still get the "Oops" message,

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox because I was receiving unwanted adware and was being directed to untrusted sites. Now I want to reset Firefox because I want to change the home page and toolbars, and something is preventing the reset. I have closed all open windows repeatedly, but the problem continues.

Hiding all open windows.

On my Mini (running Tiger), I'm sure that I used to be able to hide all open windows by pressing F11 to show the desktop. How do I do this on my iMac, running Leopard and using the aluminium keyboard?
Pressing F11 just reduces the volume. Tried pressing F11 in conjunction with the shift, control, alt and command keys, to no avail.

I knew that'd work on a laptop keyboard, but I hadn't noticed the Fn key on this desktop keyboard!
I agree with that. the Fn key location on my powerbook is a lot more convenient than on the aluminum keyboard for my mac pro.
Strange place to put it, right above the delete key.....
Thanks.
