Open location dialog (CTRL+L) unavailable in v. 29

I don't display the location bar, and I recently installed the extensions "Classic Theme Restorer" and "Tabs on Bottom" to make that happen, giving me more vertical space in which to display webpages.
In previous versions of Firefox — and without displaying the location bar — I was always able to get to a website through CTRL+L, which displayed a dialog allowing me to type in a website, browse files, and decide whether I wanted Firefox to open in current tab, new tab, or new window. I think more than just myself would like that function restored to the current version 29.

No. This is JavaScript and not Java, so the syntax is different. Just use the code as posted as a start.

In the File Tab of Firefox 28 was an Open Location.This is not in Firefox 29. Why?

Open Location showed details of sites frequently visited.

Because it is no longer possible to hide the Navigation Toolbar with the location bar in the current Firefox release, the Firefox developers have removed the code to bring up a replacement location bar (Ctrl/Command+L) and that includes support for the Open Location menu entry.

Open File dialog in 1.1.0.21

This is an old issue which I thought was supposed to be resolved in 1.1, but whenever you go to the open file dialog, it still always starts in the installation directory. It does not remember the last directory used and I cannot find anything in the global preferences that enables you to specify a preferred default location. There is a feature request that is marked as complete in 1.1 which kind-of covers this issue but relating to saving files, but the behaviour of both the save file and open file dialog is the same as it was.
Using build MAIN-21.41 on windows xp.

I too was disappointed that this promised enhancement was left out of version 1.1. However, I found a workaround that helps minimize the problem.
If you have a Windows Explorer window open to the folder where your SQL file resides, you can drag-and-drop the file into SQL Developer to open it. The trick is that you must drag your cursor to the tab bar area of the SQL Developer window to get the file to open in a new tab. Dragging it to the editor section of the SQL Developer window will not open the file.

Adobe CS5 Applications open/save dialog boxes size always resets

So, since the Mountain Lion update, all of my Adobe CS5 save/open window dialog boxes reset their size each time. In my case they are too small, causing me to have to enlarge the window out every time, to be able to see file names/locations etc.
Not a massive issue, but rather annoying when I think of the time I'm wasting resizing windows hundreds of times a day, especially as this never used to happen.
Is this an Adobe issue?
Can anyone using Adobe CS6 on Mountain Lion tell me if they experience this too?
Anyone on using Adobe CS5 on OSX-10.8.2 experienced this too, any suggestions?

I came here looking for this very same help. It is driving me crazy. It happened when I recently updated to Mountain Lion. It has to be a Mountain Lion problem, as I'm using the very same Adobe products that I've used for years and it never occurred before.
I'm also having the problem with Mountain Lion resizing my coverflow finder windows every time I open them. Also completely annoying.
How do I get the windows (saving and coverflow) to stay in the same position as I last had them versus resetting to some default position every time I open them or click on a new file? Very annoying.

When I hit the escape key to close out the open file dialog box, firefox hangs or crashes.

When I open the "open file" dialog box using the ctrl+O and then hit the escape key to exit the box, I get an error message which I'm not able to paste here.
it says something about a runtime problem and if I try the same thing again to reproduce the problem, it will sometimes just hang and windows vista will tell me the program is not responding.
I've checked to see if there are any crash IDs but none were found for this time frame.
I have even disabled all add ons.
I'm currently using vista 64 bit edition and Firefox 6, beta edition.

Hi,
Please also try right-clicking on the link corresponding to the language version and '''Save Target As''' to save the Firefox installer. If the problem persists, posting [http://answers.microsoft.com/ here] would also be helpful.

Check if file downloaded successfully , through Open Save dialog box

hi,
In the jsp I have a download link through which user can download a file which is located on the server . I have achieved this by setting the response type in servlet as follows => response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fileName); .When the jsp page loads the user is shown a Open Save dialog box for downloading the file. The user can download the file or cancel the operation.
But now I need to track if the user has downloaded the file successfully on his m/c , depending on which a flag will be updated in the database . I am not able to track this event . Pls help how I can check if the file has been downloaded successfully and do further processing.

This is fully dependent on the client side. You can never rely on that.
In most cases you could check if any byte of the file is written to the outputstream and/or no IOException is been thrown, but some webbrowsers (such as Firefox) will download the file immediately while the client still need to choose 'save' or 'cancel'. Only when the client chooses 'cancel' the download will be aborted and the file will be deleted. But if the file is small and/or the network is fast, then the file download might be already completed at that time.
Again, you can never rely on what happens at the client side.

How to disable Open File dialog in Preview

After I upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, Preview app started popping up the Open File dialog box every time I launch it. It used to just launch and do nothing.
Is there a way to prevent Preview in Yosemite to present the Open File dialog box to the user? I vaguely recall a "defaults write" kind of command that would disable this feature.
The use case this behavior is breaking is as follows:
1. Want to take a screenshot and save it to a file.
2. Press Cmd-Ctrl-Shift-4 to snap a screenshot and save it on the clipboard.
3. Cmd-Space to bring up Spotlight, type Preview and launch Preview
4. Cmd-N to instruct Preview to paste the contents of the clipboard to a new file.
With Yosemite, step-4 above breaks, since I have to hit Esc first to clear the dialog box.

Try this it will give the full directory structure.
REPORT ZTEST3460 line-count 30(2)   .
PARAMETERS: FILE LIKE RLGRAP-FILENAME.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR FILE.
                     CALL FUNCTION '/SAPDMC/LSM_F4_SERVER_FILE'
                     EXPORTING
                       DIRECTORY              = ' '
                       FILEMASK               = ' '
                      IMPORTING
                        SERVERFILE             = FILE
                     EXCEPTIONS
                       CANCELED_BY_USER       = 1
                       OTHERS                 = 2

File Open/Save dialog

Hi,
One of my pet peeves about Jdeveloper and by extension of SQLDeveloper is that the file open/save dialog does not have quick way to navigate to familiar places on my computer like "My Documents" or "Desktop". For eg., in Word, I can navigate to My Recent Documents, Desktop, My Documents, My Computer, My Network Places.
I know Jdeveloper and SQLD are also meant for the Unix Platform, but having shortcuts like My Network Places, Desktop, My Computer etc atleast for the Windows based tools would make it immensly easier to find files.
Something even better would be to allow each person to customize that list of shortcuts he can have in that list.
Thanks
Alex

Yes, this is absolutely necessary for Windows users!
In a non-java Windows application I can usually put a shortcut to my favored directory in the directory an application might default to, then double-click it and the windows environment is smart enough to move to that directory, and I can save my files.
Java is stupid in this regard. It thinks you are trying to save the file to the name of the shortcut. I CANNOT stand an application that isn't smart enough to set preferences to default file locations!
I should also add that I set the USER_DIR to the directory I save all my files in (on my u:drive) and SQL Developer then runs those files without the entire path (I can just put in @a for example) but it is too STUPID to save to this directory!

Illustrator CS3 crashes in "Open file" dialog when making a copy of a file

Hi!
I have a user, who has quite a weird problem. We use the Design Standard CS3 package, since we can't afford to upgrade all 20 users to CS5 right now.
The problem occurs in Illustrator, when she goes to the "Open File" dialog. She often makes copies of files in there (ctrl+c, ctrl+v), so she has a backup of the file she's currently working on. Why she won't use Explorer to do that, I can't say.. she said something about it being easier this way.
The problem is, that often when she presses ctrl+v Illustrator crashes without warning. Usually when Illustrator crashes there's a warning about not enough memory, an error report or stuff like that, but none of that happens. It's fully patched (13.0.2), and there's no problem with the Print Spooler or the default printer.
I'm unable to replicate it on my computer, unfortunately, so I'm turning to you. Have any of you ever heard about this, seen it somewhere - and do you know what causes it?
Best regards,
Thomas

Sorry, forgot to add that she's running Windows XP SP3, fully updated, 32-bit on a HP Z400 Workstation.

How can I open Elements 8 with "Open with dialog" in Windows XP?

When I try to open a photo from My Pictures using the Open with dialog (when I click on Register) I get a message"Specified file is missing! No changes were made" Photoshop Elements 8 is installed and working. For some reason Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 no longer appears on the list of programs in the Windows Open With dialog. How can I add Adobe Elements 8 to the Open With dialog? There are programs listed that I do not use. Is there a way to delete or add programs to the Open With dialog?

I couldn't get this to work for some reason. I solved the problem by
downloading
OpenWithAdd_1.2.zip. This adds the program to the "Open with dialog"
The procedure is:
Download OpenWithAdd.zip and run it. Locate the application that you
want to add to the Open With dialog.
Type the command-line parameter (if the application requires one) in the
appropriate text field. And optionally, you can give a personalized name
for the application which you're trying to add to Open With. This text
will appear in the Open With dialog, describing the application.
Once done, click Register.
Your application is now added to the list.

Trying to create multithreading problems when opening file dialog

Warning: Newbie to Labview...
I have a problem in a rather complicated VI where bringing up the open file dialog halts some background operations.
I would really like to reproduce this behaviour for various reasons, but am unable to. I've created a simple VI with a for-loop where the index feeds a sine converter which in turn feeds a tank indicator. This produces an oscillating behaviour. To this VI I've added a file dialog control.
Regardless of the multithreading setup, I'm unable to get the oscillating of the tank indicator to stop when the dialog is open. Is there something I can do to get this behaviour? I realize it's unusual to try to break things, but it is rather important for me.
Tha
nk you,
Nigel

Hi,
The for loop (all loops by the way) is halted until everything in it is
finished.
Try this:
+ Make a while loop
+ wire TRUE to the stop criterium.
+ Put an indicator on the 'I'.
+ Put a MS Wait in it (e.g. 80 ms), to prevent 100% processor time.
Run it, and the indicator will increase fast.
Now put any dialog in the while loop. E.g. a message box.
The indicator will increase everytime you press 'OK'.
Note: stop by pressing CTRL+. and clicking 'OK' several times.
Regards,
Wiebe.

Open File dialogs often empty in Mavericks

Since upgrading to Mavericks I've often had problems with the Open File dialog. Often when I select a folder in any Open File dialog in any application, no files show up. This is also true when for example I try and export a photo from iPhoto. The File dialog asking me to select the location to place the photo does not show the contents of existing folders. So once I select the computers hard drive, I can't select a folder or a folder inside a folder to place the photo.
Eventually if I cancel the operation and keep trying, the Open File dialog will work.
This is but one of the many slowdowns I'm experiencing with Mavericks. In general, this has not been a pleasant upgrade, and I have a MacBook pro which is only a year old. At times it seems as slow as a computer from the 1980s.

Working workaround:
Use the following statements in Terminal.
sudo vi /etc/auto_master
In this file comment out /net with # (#/net .....)
sudo automount -vc
Fixed.

Search result opening open\save dialog

When clicking a search result link the open\save dialog is propmting the user
to save or open instead of opening the document directly.
Its a dcox document and the web appication is set for premessive browsing.
Looks like browser configuration to me but i cant figure out which one.
The site is in the trusted sites list and opening the documents from the doclib (not search results) is fine.
Thanks.

10.6.4 - open-save dialog question

pls see this screenshot..
http://mayacove.com/misc/ssopen-savedialog.jpg
circled 'back' and 'forward' buttons are always disabled in open-save dialogs..
why is this.. how do I fix/configure..
thank you..

When that dialog opens, it's pointing to a location like desktop or downloads folder. In your screenshot it's pointing to "resume". Change the destination of the "save" to another folder. Then you'll see the back arrow become active. Pressing it will take you back to the orignial location.

Failed to save the PDF file into the open location as default

Hi all,
Please help me!
In Acrobat XI professional, while save the PDF file using the SAVEAS option it shows the previous file saved location path.
But i need the current opened location path while save the PDF file.
Please help me to solve the issue.
Regards,
JayaKrishnan

What an awesome idea, Bernd...
I've just encountered the same situation and it's irritating the hell outta me. Adobe's always gotta screw something up to irritate us. As if having the rent their software isn't irritation enough.
The problem is when you open a file and then Save As it has always, and in every program known to man (at least that I've used), offered to Save As in the same folder where the file was opened from. Now it wants to save it in the last "saved to" directory.
While this could be convenient on occasion it's a PitA most of the time.
Any actual solution to this misbehaving Save dialog?
