? on title bar of my folders

Why is there a question mark in the title bar of all my folders?

Because the Finder's plist references an item that doesn't exist. Control-click it and choose Remove Item.

  • Why do the title bar on Firefox and taskbar on Windows 7 leave distorted image when a list of bookmark folders crosses either one ?

    I use lots of folders in my bookmarks list. I have noticed that with both AMD and Nvidia based video cards, that if I am using a folder in my bookmarks list that has lots and lots of bookmarks, the list of bookmarks will cross both the title bar area of Firefox and the taskbar on Windows 7 at the bottom. When this happens, both the title bar on Firefox versions 8-10 and the taskbar at the bottom will leave images from the bookmark list that don't go away (unless I use F11 view fullscreen to clear away the image and restore to normal ). If I am using a Matrox video card, this doesn't happen. Why is this?

    Hey cor-el,
    Wow. That did it. You are a genius! Thank you, thank you. It's very important that I be able to use the folders with saved bookmarks feature for my business which I rely on daily.
    I unchecked the "use hardware acceleration feature" where you said it was in Firefox 9 browser and it resolved the problem immediately. I am using an Nvidia GS8400 video card. I was having the same problem on the new ATI/AMD video cards too (haven't tested though on ATI computer yet). My Matrox M9120 doesn't do that at all though. Do you have any idea why that is ? Is it a software conflict between Nvidia or AMD drivers and Firefox?
    One more question on your response solution, why do you recommend upgrading to current video card drivers since un-checking the "hardware acceleration" feature in Firefox works? The video card drivers on the disc that came with the card I am using were supplied by the manufacturer and released last year. Shouldn't that be good enough?

  • Cmd-click in finder on title bar opens new window - why?

    This is a feature I used all the time previously, but since I've updated to 10.5.2 it always open a new window when I select a dir further back. Does anybody know how I can make it not open a new window, just navigate in the existing window?

    ..."cmd-click in finder on title bar opens new window"...
    Holding down the cmd key while opening a folder in the "Finder" has caused the folder to open in a new window for quite some time. I can't recall what the behaviour was with respect to the Titlebar in earlier OS X versions, but if it has really changed in 10.5, perhaps it was to make it more consistent with the behaviour of folders in general.
    Are you sure you weren't using ctrl-click in the past?

  • Missing feature in Finder window's Title Bar-

    Hi there!
    I don't know if this has already been posted; I've tried to make a search but it's a real pain.
    I have upgraded my Macpro to Snow Leopard since a couple of months now, but I still miss an important feature that I used quiet A LOT in Leopard.
    We all know if we have a window opened with Toolbar on in the Finder and ctrl-click (or cmd-click or RMB-click) on its Title Bar it drops down a menu showing all it's parent folders.
    If you click on one of those, its content gets displayed in the already opened window.
    Ok. Nice (well.. not that much).
    In Leopard (not Snow) we had the option to cmd-click on one of the parent folders displayed in that menu and have it opened in a NEW window, with its original dimensions fitting its whole content.
    (THAT was "nice")!
    Now, in Snow Leopard, this feature seems to be gone.
    Ok... we have a brand new "Path bar" which behaves the same.
    But it's ugly, occupies room in the window and... Oh well; I want that Leopard behavior back! :-)p
    Does anyone know how can I have it back (aside from downgrading)?
    What makes me think it's still possible to have it back, it's the fact that if I double-click a folder in a window, I can get it opened in a new window with that same behavior. And that if I ctrl-click (or cmd-click or RMB-click) on Safari's Window Title and then cmd-click on one of the items showing in the menu (which are parents folders of a site) I get the very same behavior I had in Leopard: it opens the parent folder in a NEW window (or tab, depending on your settings).
    So, I'm guessing is something to change in the Finder preferences, but I just can't figure out where.
    TIA!
    (What I wrote is always referred to windows with Toolbar visible; I know without Toolbar every folder opens in a new window, even the ones from the popup).

    Hi, Don Archibald and thanks for your answer.
    In the first part of my post I already said I was aware that "ctrl-click (or cmd-click or RMB-click)" would make the hierarchical dropmenu appear, both in SL and Leopard.
    What differs is while in Leopard you could cmd-click on an item of the dropmenu and have it open in a new window, in SL it opens in the same window, no matter if you press cmd or not when clicking.
    As for the "Always open folders in a new window", as it clearly states, that would make every folder (even "regular" ones - the ones not listed in the dropmenu) open in a new window, which is absolutely not what I want.
    I want to be able to choose on the fly if a parent folder from the dropmenu, or a "regular" folder, should open in its own window or in the window I'm already in.
    Just like I did under Leopard.
    Thanks again for your interesting, anyways ;-)

  • Just installed version 31.5.0. Constant "(Not Responding)" in title bar, crashing/freezing up. CAUSE: McAfee?

    This version 31.5.0 on Win 8.1 consistently freezes with (Unresponsive) in the title bar. Locks up w/o any reason or for such a vast variety of reasons that it for sure is not just one thing. Is there a way to download and install an earlier version or do I have to resign myself to using another email client?

    Zenos--thanks for taking the time to lend a helping hand.
    I have just now been running TB in safe mode. Still it is lapsing into "unresponsive" freeze. I had just left it running as I was using my browser to do other things and when I tried to switch to TB I couldn't. I waited and kept trying at intervals. Eventually I was able to bring it back from the freeze so I could at least look at emails. As soon as I tried to do some things it fairly quickly whited out with a "Not Responding" in the title bar.
    This non responsiveness has been growing more common in recent releases, even when I was using a former release under Win 7. I strongly suspect that it is due to a combination of both problems in the coding of TB and to my having many, many old emails, on local folders and within Gmail account, and to having lots of filters to move all incoming mail to various folders. Unfortunately I just don't know of any stable, good featured email client under windows which can handle the tasks and not be buggy. Getting '''VERY''' tired of TB hanging up and being so problematic.

  • Title Bar stuck under the Menu bar and I cannot select and move it.

    I often arrange windows around the desktop and sometimes I inadvertently push a window up too far and the title bar gets under the menu bar. Once I let go of the arrow, the title bar is too far under the menu bar and I can no longer reach it to move it down. The only solution is to close out the program and start over. Is there a way unbeknownst to me to select the title bar again and move it?
    Sharon

    My E*Trade streaming watch list was stuck under the Menu Bar also. I tried reseting the screen resolution down to 1280 x 1024, and restarting the MarketTrader. There on the display was the stuck window, out from under. I resized and moved it to a central location, and resized the display back to my normal 1920 setting. And to my relief, the window Bar! Thanks Discussion!

  • Clicking on enclosing folder's icon in the title bar doesn't open Finder

    I create PDF booklet from Mellel document using PDF service. Preview application opens newly created PDF document. I Command+click on its icon in the document window's title bar, move cursor one level lower and click on the encompassing folder's ("temp") icon. I expect new Finder's window to open and show me PDF document selected. However, Finder doesn't open. Disk permissions repaired. One week old clean Leopard installation. When I click on the icon in the TextEdit window's title bar and do the same, encompassing Finder's folder opens in a new window. Word also opens Finder window. ONly Preview doesn't work. It used to work at least one month ago. Where the problem could be?

  • I'd like an alphabet scroll-bar for my folders in Mail. Will this be added anytime soon?

    I've been using Mail for years and find it convenient for use across all devices, off-and online. I really like that I can place a rule so that each email will automatically be delivered into individual folders. This makes it easy to organize my emails for search purposes, and to keep a clean and relevant Inbox. Sometimes, depending on my internet connection....it can sometimes cease at home and my desktop will be in sleep mode, and my emails won't be automatically ruled into their appropriate folders. This is ok, because I just manually file them. However, I have many folders. It would be an added bonus if there is an alphabet scroll-bar in the folders source list to the left of the Mail app. screen.
    It appears that so much time and energy has gone into renovating the Mail application throughout the years, and the clean design and ease of use is noticeable and appreciated. I feel they would be complemented by the scroll-bar.
    I'm just wondering if Apple has this in mind for any new updates to Mail?
    Thanks!

    Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • How to replace the icon in the title bar and minimized window

    I am not sure if this is a Swing question. But since nobody answered it in the Java Programming forum, let me place it here:
    I would like to set my own icon in the title bar and in the minimized window of my java application, replacing the java coffee cup icon.
    I am using:
    frame.setIconImage(new ImageIcon("image.gif").getImage())
    as was suggested previously in the Java Programming forum at:
    http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=31&threadID=5212059
    This does create the icon in both places. However, it only works when I run the program from JBuilder 2006. It doesn't work if I run the program from the .jar or the .exe file.
    How can I make it work for my .jar and .exe file?
    Please help! Thanks!

    It doesn't work if I run the program from the .jar...working example for a .jar
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.awt.*;
    class Testing
      public void buildGUI()
        JFrame f = new JFrame();
        Image img;

            img = javax.imageio.ImageIO.read(url);
            f.setIconImage(img);
        catch(Exception e){}//do nothing - default will display

  • Why do I have two title bars - one with the title of the page I'm looking at and another with the new orange drop down menu? Plus I can't get FF4 to save my tabs, even when I go to about:config, why is that?

    I downloaded FF4, thinking that it would merely update from my previous installation, but all my tabs were gone. FF looks really weird - here is a link to a picture of it: http://tinypic.com/r/2mwdus4/7 - I have two title bars, my bookmarks toolbar is missing and the tabs are on the bottom. If I go to view => toolbars and click one of them, suddenly the second title bar (with the orange menu) disappers and my bookmarks toolbar comes back (even if I don't click on it in "view"). I can't get the browser to remember my tabs between sessions even though I set it to remember them in my settings. I even changed the browser.showQuitWarning to true in about:config, but it didn't work. What is going on?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • How to get rid of title bar of a quicktime window?

    The main problem:
    I want to display the title info etc about each track as they play in iTunes. How can I do that on an otherwise black screen (desktop) (I don't want to use the visualizer with its psychedelic patterns).
    Background:
    I want to play music from iTunes (many pieces in a row - for like a full day). While this is happening I want the title etc of the tune to be displayed on the screen, like white smallish text against a black background in the lower right hand corner. At the same time I want slides to be displayed on the screen.
    So, with iPhoto I can run a slide show but only while one piece of music is playing.
    Instead I can have the desktop slowly change (from system preferences) with images from a folder every 5 seconds. That's not too bad. Looks good, actually, except for that annoying menu bar at the top! Well, black tape can hide that one (or a second display and move it over there). Now iTunes can play away all day.
    As to how to get the title etc of the song playing displayed I was thinking about somehow extracting it from iTunes with applescript, then paste it into the text track of a quicktime movie, and display that little movie in a small window. I have figured out how to get rid of the controller from the window. But, I can not figure out how to get the title bar of the quicktime window to go away - that is I want a window with nothing around it, neither controllers nor title bar nor anything. How do I create such a window. Any good ideas out there?
    Or is there a totally different way of obtaining the same effect?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    You could try posting at the QuickTime discussion area. There might be an iTunes visualizer that allows you to make a slideshow with track info. It has been a while since I tried making a SMIL file, but I think you could do what you want with that. Not sure how you create a streaming text of track information. I would have to do some reviewing.

  • How can I get back the title bar in Thunderbird 38?

    The title bar can be turned on and off in Firefox. In the current version of Thunderbird (31), the title bar is present by default and there is no option to turn it off. In the beta version (38), there is no title bar by default… but I can't believe that there's no way to get it back. So, where is this setting? I can't find it.

    I sure agree that the setting isn't easily discoverable, but that's too late for the 38.0 release given that string freezes went in effect already (the reason being that localizers have to translate all UI elements for their respective language).
    The respective [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=814571 bug report] has been up for more than two years, but thus far not much progress in terms of a solution acceptable by the developers. I don't know if the extension proposed in the last comment was ever developed and posted.

  • Change the colour of title bar of frame

    how can we change the colour of title bar of any frame?

    i want to have control of the title bar.there must be some way out.look & feel gives it colour of that perticular types colour(motif,met,native).but i want my choosen colour for it.if you have any direction to solve it please suggest me that.

  • How can I change the color of a title bar?

    Ok, I have been looking for this answer for over a week now and nobody
    has yet given me an answer that works. So I am going to ask again.
    Here is a piece of code you can run to see what I am trying to do:
    public class RemoteDisplayFrame extends JFrame {
    public static final Color GRAY70 = new Color(179, 179, 179);
    public RemoteDisplayFrame() {
    super();
    public RemoteDisplayFrame(String title) {
    super(title);
         public void setBorderContent() {
    this.setUndecorated(true);
    JRootPane rootPane = this.getRootPane();
    rootPane.setWindowDecorationStyle( JRootPane.PLAIN_DIALOG );
    this.setRootPane( rootPane );
    public static void main( String [] args ) {
    RemoteDisplayFrame frame = new RemoteDisplayFrame( "Test Frame" );
    frame.setBorderContent();
    frame.pack();
    frame.show();
    Run this code and you should get a frame on your screen that has no
    close buttons, minimize buttons, or maximize buttons, and no menu.
    I want to change the title bar's color to a specific color.
    That color is GRAY70:
    public static final Color GRAY70 = new Color(179, 179, 179);
    If you have any idea on how to do this please do tell.

    AFAIK, you can't. I believe the title bar is rendered by the operating system, using the colors the user has chosen, consistently for all windows. Frankly, if your app could, it would annoy me, as I would still want all my windows to look consistent.

  • Change the background color of a title bar

    I'd like to know if it's possible to change the background color of a swing application title bar.
    Thanks in advance.

    In Windows I think you can change the overall look of the desktop - Standard Windows comes with a bluish scheme, but you can change that, say to something like greenish. On NT you do it using right click on desktop > Properties > Apperance > Scheme etc etc.
    So I think Frame title colour is very much a OS specified thing.
