Open/Place Dialog not behaving like other apps - win 7 64bit

I just recently switched from mac to windows at work. It was also a jump from orginal CS(mac) to CS5(win). One thing I am having a problem with is that I can't create shortcuts/favorites on the left in those open/place/save dialog windows. All I get is a static frame with Recent Places, Desktop, Libraries, Computer and Network. But no Favorites. I can't even expand them in to trees. I can't right click on the icons or in that pane. The only thing I can do is left click and it opens up the view they represent. In other programs, such as Firefox, OpenOffice or Notepad, you have a Favorites selection and you can drag stuff over to it at any time.
Is there any way to get that behavior in the Windows version of CS5?
I work on a weekly newspaper and do lots of placing from many different locations through the week. I used to set up the new shortcuts at the beginning of the week on the Mac but haven't figured out how to do that in CS5 on Windows. By having to browse back and forth to those different folders I am losing about an hour or more of productivity over the course of a week. It really hurts as we approach our deadline.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I tried to use Recent Places but it changes so frequently and I also use a lot of folders that have the same name but they are under different weeks directories so it's not as reliable. I suppose I can clear off the desktop and put all my shortcuts there. It's an extra step but seems like it will work bettter than how I've had to do it so far. Thanks to everyone. If anyone has a better solution, I would be pleased to give it a try.
Since Desktop is always a choice, consider creating a single Desktop folder and placing shortcuts to the directories and subdirectories in it. The more Desktop items, the greater impact on resources and performance, but a single folder that contains other items counts as one item.
If your files are kept on a network drive, Desktop can contain a shortcut to a shortcut folder on the common drive and all users can create shortcuts to it.

When I have opened newstand it will not close like other apps. I have to shutdown the iPad completely why

When I have opened newstand it will not close like other apps. I have to shutdown the iPad completely why?

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

Hello, my iphone 5s fell, thereafter i tried taking a picture, the camera app just shows a black screen and hangs, the front camera works on other apps (such as facetime and skype) but the rear camera is not working, all other apps work perfectly well, how do i resolve this

Double tap Home button and delete Camera app from multitask-list.
Do a
Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data

Save As/Open File dialog not remembering Recent Places

Ok this is annoying.
Working with files from a network server (PC). Whenever I try and open documents, save documents, or place images/text into a document (InDesign etc) the open/save/place dialog box that appears always defaults to the User/Documents folder. It seems to be that it is only the server folders that do this as it remembers Recent Places, and automatically goes to the last folder accessed in the dialog, for local files from my HD.
I've tried a tip in another thread regarding deleting com.apple.LaunchServices-xxxx.csstore files (as I did have 2 of them with negative numbers) but that didn't fix anything.
Any ideas?

I think this is pretty normal behavior. Servers don't usually remember where clients have saved files and neither do some applications. You can, however, create sharepoints using the freeware utility Sharepoints.
You could try the shareware utility Default Folder X which may enable you to preserve default locations even on remote servers.
Referenced software can be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

Why "Open in pages" not showing in Mail app ?

Hey!
I just bought Pages and Keynote apps, and i'm trying to open PDF files from Mail app.
The problem is that in "Open in..." , Pages and Keynotes are not in the list of applications!
Someone know why?

You can annotate pdf files with Good Reader - using the paid version anyway. I didn't know there was a free version.
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/goodreader-for-ipad/id363448914?mt=8
There are other apps that will let you annotate pdf files as well. iAnnotate is another.
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/iannotate-pdf/id363998953?mt=8
BTW - you can import Word Documents into Pages as well as Pages documents. But you are looking for a solution for pdf files. Check out the apps above and you can search for othes.

Delete datagridview row using right click context menu does not behave like the delete key

I have a datagridview with editing enabled. If I click the row header and press the delete key, the row is removed no questions asked. I don't recall doing any coding to make this happen but I couldn't do copy and paste using keys so I created a context
menu with copy, paste, & delete. The delete option calls
dgvVX130.Rows.RemoveAt(dgvVX130.SelectedRows[0].Index);
The row is removed but the problem is this fires other events like RowValidating which fails. I presume because the row is no longer there.
The delete keypress is definitely a lot cleaner so my question is 3fold.
1) Why doesn't Rows.RemoveAt behave like the delete key?
2) Is it possible to issue a delete keypress to do the same thing?
3) Is it possible to suppress the RowValidating event or other events when Rows.RemoveAt is fired?

Interesting. My delete key does not fire the row validating event. When I use the delete key I click on the row header which does fire the row validating event and then I press the delete key. Row is deleted and no event fires. Works
just the way I want it to. I wish my context menu delete worked that way. I wouldn't know what chunk of code I can provide to show the Row Validating NOT firing when delete key is pressed but here is the context menu code that does fire Row Validating.

IPhoto 6.0.6 (322) Will Not Print (all other apps can)

Good evening,
I automatically updated iPhoto to 6.0.6 (322) and now get this message when trying to print a picture:
"No pages from the document were selected to be printed."
I copied the message from the opened tab. All other apps can print.

jrrplie:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Did you run Disk Utility and repair disk permissions after the iPhoto update? If no give it a go now. Also turn off photo sharing if you have it turned on in the iPhoto's prefs (longshot).
Also check out this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4214124&#4214124
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

ISight not working with other apps

I've currently been having a problem with my Intel iMac (specs in signature) since the iSight works with iChat (the green light turns on and everything), but it doesn't work with other apps such Delicious Library or Photo Booth. I also have a Windows XP partition on here, and it works just fine.
With Photo Booth, I just get a green screen and no message. On Delicious Library I get a white screen and no message either. I've tried deleting the .plist file for Photo Booth, but that hasn't worked. Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

If nothing above solves your problem, try all relevant suggestions from http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93240
If the problem continues, you may have a hardware or software conflict. Some users report that plug-ins installed by Delicious Library cause conflicts with iSight.
If your problem remains after trying all relevant Troubleshooting suggestions, uninstall D/L (or at least remove any QuickTime plug-ins D/L installs) to see if your system has a D/L conflict.

Webgui theme not rendering toolbar, does not look like SAPgui for Win

Hello all,
I just installed the ITS 6.20 Patch 20 and when I started the webgui service, the theme that was genereatd does not look like the SAPgui for Windows at all.
All I've got is a gray and blue color theme. The top row is the "SAP Easy Access" header and on the next row are just simple square buttons (Menu, Tools, User Menu, SAP Menu, etc.).
What do I have to do to enable the "richer" look-and-feel like the SAPgui for Windows 6.20? I'm looking to get the toolbar with the paging icons, disk icon, goback, etc.
Thanks,
Mike

Oliver,
You have to disable the Enjoy SAP option.
1. Log in to the Admin service;
2. Open the Configuration | General settings for the ITS instance;
3. Remove the checkmark for the "Enjoy Design" option.
4. Save and restart.
Does this help?
Mike

When I tap on a game app it won't open on my ipod touch. Other apps open, but not games?

It just blinks quickly. I have turned it off and on. Anyone?
