Open/Save as etc Popup windows don't stay open! just close down again

Hey all
Ive got a problem on my Macbook Pro, Installed Leopard, and now in most programs whenever I try to bring up the open window or save as etc windows they appear for a second and then closes down again like I have made a selection!
Its really annoying me!
Any Ideas

Thanks. But I always have the List View.
One lame thing worked though. I would hit the command short cut and keep hitting it for a few times. This forces the command window to stay open, and it actually helps getting ridding of the problem temporarily.
I also had a similar but nastier problem in Acrobat. I tried to save a Photoshop PDF file in Acrobat, the Save As window opened and closed right away. Then all the command menus went gray; non of the commands was available including Quit. The only option I had was to force quit Acrobat. However, I didn't have this problem when handling native Acrobat files. The good news is that my lame solution worked.

Serious problems in Illustrator CC with OSX Mavericks: Open, Place and Save windows don't stay open

I just upgraded to OSX Mavericks. After that, Illustrator started acting up. When I try to save or open a file, or place an image, the command window opens just for a second or two then closes right away. Even the Save shortcut doesn't work. I've saved the file a few times using Command-S, when I was closing it I got a warning that I had to save it. Of course, I couldn't save it using Save As or Save commands because their windows wouldn't stay open, so I had to just close it. When I opened it again, it was an older version; Illustrator just ignored my last two or three saves.
I tried restarting the computer and relaunching Illustrator, nothing worked. The problem was worse when I have InDesign open too. But just quitting InDesign didn’t always work. This morning, I had to quit and relaunch both InDesign and Illustrator a few times before the problem temporarily disappeared.
I think it might also be worth mentioning that I use Apple Trackpad, and my computer is brand new.
Is anyone else having similar problems? Any help is appreciated.

Saving window don't stay opened

Since I updated all the drivers on my laptop, the saving window where I am supposed to choose the format (jpg, gif, etc.) of copies of my file don't stay opened long enough for me to save in another format than PS. How to fix it?

The OS save dialog (the one you can't keep open) should only close when you hit the save button, or press enter or return to commit the save).
My guess is that something on your OS is interferring with the OS save dialog.

Please guide me how this problem would be solve...?
Yassen

For URGENT questions go right to https://support.oracle.com and file a Prio 1 SR with Oracle Support. For everything else I don't see why your question is more urgent then others.
Did you check if maybe the port OC4J runs on (8889) is already used by another program (netstat)? Did you check the logfiles?
cheers

Since the latest update of 3.5.11, firefox opens links in a new window. it used to open links in a new tab. how can i fix that?

The setting in "Tools > Options > Tabs" only works for links that would open in a new window.<br />
That option allow you to divert such calls to a new tab.<br />
For other links you either have to use a middle click or a Ctrl + left click or use the context menu.

This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.

Am I the only one who gets exited out of everything on my iPhone?! I will open up Instagram and not even 2 minutes later it will close down. How do I fix this?! It's so annoying.

I will assume you are using a slower iPhone 4 on iOS 7 if you are experiencing such problems so frequently. You might already be trying this, but my first suggestion would be to double tap the home button and see what you have running. You might not be quitting any of the apps you open. To stop an app from running and slowing down your phone, after double-tapping, slide the preview cards up for apps you don't need to run.

How to open URL as a popup window through BRANCH in APEX reports

Hi
I am using APEX 4.0
I have a branch with a target type of URL. The branch is triggered by pressing a button. There is also a plsql process on the same button which fires at the process point of "On Submit-After Computations and Validations". I want to open the branch URL as the popup Window. I tried doing it with javascript, but then the plsql process doesn't execute. Any pointers will be helpful.
Thanks
Hina

You can use the apex.submit javascript function. This function allows to store some item value from session scope to database scope. So that a page process picks the correct item value. Not sure if it works with computations thou.
See the docs: JavaScript APIs
Example
Submits the current page with a REQUEST value of 'DELETE'.
apex.submit({ request:"DELETE", set:{"P1_DEPTNO":10, "P1_EMPNO":5433});
Then add a branch with type "branch to function returning URL" This page branch can be made conditional on the same request as the page process.
The returned url would be either include the javascript popup or window.open function or simply be the url. Important thing here would be to use a function that reads the url item from database state, since at that moment the computation or page process will have set the item on database level, but it is not directly available on page level.
meaning ":p2_item" or v('P2_ITEM') should work. &P2_ITEM. in the url will probably not work.

To open the screen as popup window in EP

Hi All,
We have standard webdynpro ABAP UI (Floor plan manager) in portal from the standard SAP EM Configuration.
In WDABAP User interface, when user clicks on the link then SAP screen is opening in the new window , but that should be opened as a pop up window in the same portal screen where user clicks on link UI element, instead of opening in the new window.
Please let me know whether SAP provides this feature as part of any standard configuration either in FPM front or with other solution.
Currently All webdynpro ABAP UI screens are accessing in portal are from WDABAP standard UI from FPM configuration in SAP EM system.
Please get back to me on this, Thanks in advance.

Hi,
there is currently no standard configuration available to change this behaviour. These kind of links will always open a new window.

Datepicker PopUp opens in the calling PopUp window

Hey Guys, I need some help on this...
I have a button that opens a PopUp window, and in this PopUp I have a "Date Picker" item,
And when I want to select a date, the calendar shows up in the same PopUp window, and I m loosing the calling PopUp(the first one).
How can I do so, that to have my PopUp window, and the calendart to show up in another PopUp?
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
that's because of the Window Name you specified. Specify another one or use the popUp2 method which will create a unique name.
Hope that helps

Opening Date Picker in popup window

Hi All,
I'd like to be able to use a Date Picker in a custom popup window that I've developed. When I open the date picker however, because I'm already in a popup window the date picker fills the whole of the custom popup, rather than opening in its own window.
Is there a way to force the date picker into using a new window?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike;
Thanks for the responce. My Tabular (Popup) form is wizard generated. This is the code I use to call the Popup:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function callACNEPopup (formItem1) {
var formVal1 = document.getElementById(formItem1).value;
var url;
url = 'f?p=&APP_ID.:60:&FLOW_SESSION.::::P60_ACAC_UID:' + formVal1;
wACNE = open(url,"winLov","Scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=675,height=300");
if (wACNE.opener == null)
wACNE.opener = self;
wACNE.focus();
</script>
The Calendar is simply a date picker.
