"Open containing folder" does not work

After having hit the button "Open containing folder" in the download manager it seems that the computer is busy, but no window opens up.
I am using Windows 64 bit (all updates) and Firefox 3.6.12.
Same issue in uTorrent, so it's maybe Microsofts's fault?

venemovil, thank you for your reply.
Well, this behaviour is not restricted to a special folder. Regardless of where I save the file, it does not work. In the General tab I have set Firefox to ask me every time where to save the file. The folders are on different partitions and/or hard drives.
This occured immediately after installing Windows 7 64 (I have only installed the very most important programs).

I keep getting the message: "what should firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

cor-el,
Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

CS 14.0.0 open dialog box does not work

A coworker just got a new computer.
Windows xp pro service pack 1
cs 14.0.0
File associations for .eps and .ai are Illustrator cs4.
Double clicking on a file (.eps .ai) does work
Dragging a file to illustrator does work
However...
File>Open does not work
File>Place does not work
Deleting the aiprefs file has no effect.
I also copied my aiprefs file to her computer, also no good.
Also reinstalled Illustrator, no effect.
Any ideas? Maybe something to do with xp, or the lack of service pack updates?

Updated windows to service pack 3 and it seems to have fixed all.

TS1398 On my ipod, it shows that it's connected to a wifi network but when i try to open safari, it does not work

On the wifi settings it shows that my ipod is connected to a network, but when I try to open safari it does not open it, because it says its not connected to wifi

You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

Since upgrade to v29, pinned tabs don't appear and sometimes all tabs don't appear and open menu button does not work

My pinned tabs don't appear at any start and at some starts, I don't see the bookmarks toolbar (I can restore that by removing it from view-toolbars and then reselecting it). when this happens, FF also does not show any tabs and the Menu button does not work.
I have tried various suggestions found on here like deleting the sessionstore.js and re-installing FF, also tried disabling hardware acceleration in safe mode and still have the same problems.
Am reluctant to reset FF in case I lose my favourites and Bookmarks, is there anything else I can try?

Firefox may not have closed properly.<br />
You can try to update to Firefox 29.0.1 to be released tomorrow (Friday) to see if that helps with this issue.

Security Inheritance breaking in nested folder does not work

I have a scenario where I have to break the inheritance twice within the document library folders. I appreciate if you provide me any suggestions on how to achieve this?
Document library contains “employee folder1”, “employee folder2”, “employee folder3” etc. All these folders have unique security applied (no security inheritance from document library). Access is granted only for managers, Senior Managers, HRs and not to
employee.
Each employee folder (Ex: employee folder1) has two sub-folders called “Active” and “Archive”.
Now, how can I grant access to employees only to “Archive” folder of their own? I need to achieve this programmatic ways.
So far, I am able to break the security inheritance for all employee folders. Granted access to only managers, HRs and not employees. Both subfolders “Active” and “Archive” inherits from respective employee folder(Employee Folder1).
Later, I broke the security inheritance again for the folder “Archive” and then granted access to employee.
Now, logged in as employee to check if he/she has access to “Archive” folder, but it does not display folder at all. I want to display archive folder when employee access url like this(but it displays access denied):
http://SPSServer/Documents/EmployeeFolder1
However when I type full url in the address bar for archive
folder, I can see the content of Archive folder.
Will you please assist how to handle the securities programmatically? Is this multiple level security breaking is not best practice? The above behavior is expected or is there a fix I have do?
Thanks in advance.

If you say meets all cirteria
face is me
face is gf
rating is >3
then it should show only photos meeting all - me and GF and rating over 3 - it does not - without the rating it shows only photos of me and GF - with rating it shows all photos of me with a rating of over 3 and all photos of GF with a rating over over 3
I consider that a bug
Using Keywords is a good workaround - and it is very easy t keyword a face by pulling that face up on the cork board and selecting all photos in that face and assigning the keyword to them

Open Window 'Action' does not work in Explorer

Mac 10.4.11 G5 GLCS1
I have created a Open Window action (see attachment) that works fine (if not in very sophisticated way) in Safari and other Mac browsers, it also works fine on PC popular browsers with the exception of Explorer. See for your self at http://www.breweryartists.co.uk/pages/buyaposter3.html
As Explorer is an important browser on the PC I need help to overcome this problem.

I'm on CS2 so I cannot tell if something was broken in CS1. This function works fine in CS2.Does it work for you if you create a new blank page with only this action on it?
Instead of wrangling a lot of bloated javascript, why not craft only what is needed?

HT1338 I have a Leopard desktop 10.5.8 and I have trouble with MAIL. My draft folder does not work and my draft messages will not delete. delete

I have a Leopard desktop 10.5.8 and I have trouble with my Email Apple MAIL draft folder. First of all after I typed my draft and sent to draft, the folder would not open at a later date to send. In all I have 10 messages, mainly test which I cannot delete from my Draft folder.
My draft system is now working but I cannot get rid of the 10 messages which sit in my INBOX and DRAFT folders.
These messages appear in Application - Mail but they will not go.
How do I delete, or is it best to use My Disc 1# and delete all my software and replace with the Disc in order to have a new MAIL program?
Any advice would be welcome.

HI,
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

How can I disable Firefox from automatically opening on system startup on my Mac - unchecking the "open at login" does not work?

We have Firefox 10.o on our Macbook Pro OS X 10.5.8. I prefer using Firefox as my browser but my husband prefers Safari for now because of a long history of bookmarks and saved information he doesn't have time to re-do. He is tired of Firefox automatically opening when we start up the laptop, and even when we uncheck the "open at login" it still opens at login every time. He is about to uninstall it because of this. How can we disable? It does NOT show up in our account on the Mac OS as an application that starts at login, so we can't disable it there.

For those of you running Windows, I found this on another site. (Unfortunately, not before getting totally disgusted and switching to chrome.)
1. click start (or the windows flag button at the bottom left) 2. in the "search programs and files" or the RUN dialog box, enter "msconfig.exe" or "msconfig". 3. That should open the system configuration program. 4. click the "Startup" tab at the top of the opened program. 5. Under the "startup item" column, look for Mozilla firefox. 6. uncheck that one. 7. Click OK or apply. 8. click "exit without restart". 9. you're good to go.

Find Missing Folder - does not work. Please help!

Has anyone had this problem? This is driving me crazy. Any time I rename or move a folder and try to use the "Find Missing Folder" option it does not show any of my hard drives! It has been like this through several LR updates. I kept praying the next release of lightroom would fix this, but so far no luck.

Did you try clicking on the left menu, on the _folder_, and selecting "Update folder location"?
You can also try "promote parent folder" to move it up the chain and find the missing drives...
Cheers!

Double clicking to open new tab does not work anymore

Am I loosing my mind?
I have been opening tabs like this for years, now it is not working.
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks
Laura

HI Laura,
Check Safari Preferences then select Tabs. Make sure your preferences haven't changed for that then select the General tab. Check your tabs prefs there also.
If nothing is amiss there, go to your Safari menu bar, click Safari / Empty Cache or Command + Option + E on your keyboard.
If that doesn't help, from the Safari menu bar click, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.
Also, if you have any Safari Extensions installed or Safari third party unsupported add-ons, that could be why you are having problems with your Tabs.
For troubleshooting third party add-ons, follow the instructions here. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3230?viewlocale=en_US
You can access Safari Extensions in the Safari / Preferences pane.

Open browser behavior does not work properly

I have quite a few websites in subfolders to my root website. I have tried using the open browser behavior to open a smaller resized html page in two of these subfolders. When I apply this behavior it causes about 20 windows to open up of this page.
However, I have another subfolder where the behavivor works perfectly.
What could be causing this error. All these websites are created with templates. Maybe this has something to do with it.
A quick second question. I use ico files to have an image in the url. Everything I have read and the way I used to get this to work was to put these images in the root level. However, using template, they have to be put in the templates folders to work. I don't remember have I came to discover this. Why is this?
I really would like some input to the open browser behaviror problem. Any help will be appreciated.
Joe

It's hard to say what the problem could ber without seeing the page in question. Could you post a link to a live page?
The actual .dwt template (if it's being used correctly) is only used by DW, you do not need to upload it to your actual web server or place your .ico file within it. You may have a link in the head section of your template that is pointing to the .ico file within the wrong folder, and that could be causing the issue.
