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?

Window.open() & window.close () does not work in Portal application

Hello All,
I am trying to open & close a popup window from a weblogic portal. But the following don't seem to work in this environment. As a web application, it works fine.
<netui:anchor action="DetailedWorkObject" target="<script @lang ='java'> window.open('IndividualWorkObjectDetails.jsp','null','resizable=no, HEIGHT=500,WIDTH=500'); </script>" >
<netui:parameter name="CLAIM_NBR" value="{container.item.claim_Nbr}" />
<netui:label value="{container.item.claim_Nbr}"/>
</netui:anchor></td>
I am using Weblogic Workshop 8.1 SP3.The above code opens up a new window but it cannot be closed with
window.close()
self.close nor this.close().
I have even tried calling the script function where I write this code but without success.
Does any one know why is this happenning ? Please tell me what is the work around for this situation.
Please answer it as soon as possible.
Thanks & have a wonderful Holiday!

Not sure if anybiody answered this for you, or if you figured it out, but here you go. In the skins directory, the default skin contains a menu.js file which has the following function at line 232:
function close(menuItem)
if (menuItem && !currentMenuItem)
closeAll(menuItem);
This function is overriding the inherent javascript close() function. Simply rename this to something else (I renamed it to closeItem) and rename the call to it at line 228 (setTimeout("close(tmpMenuItem)", tryClosePause);), and you're golden.
The two functions should look like this:
function tryClose(menuItem)
if (!currentMenuItem)
tmpMenuItem = menuItem;
setTimeout("closeItem(tmpMenuItem)", tryClosePause);
function closeItem(menuItem)
if (menuItem && !currentMenuItem)
closeAll(menuItem);

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!

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.

The "portable document format" icon is a Word 2010 icon, so selecting Adobe Reader as action does not work to display the PDF.

In the Applications tab -- Content Type -- the "portable document format" icon is a Word 2010 icon (not Adobe), so selecting Adobe Reader or preview in Firefox as action does not work to display the PDF. I can see this Applications difference because my other Firefox laptop has the Adobe icon, and I can view PDFs. Essentially, a PDF is coming in as a Word document -- and the computer tries to open it up as a Word file.
How do I get the correct PDF icon in the Applications list -- the same way it displays (and works) on my other laptop.

Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 10.1.7 ?
I think you need to add this to the list of applications and the action to take on the type of content. This can also be managed in the about:permissions page. [[Permissions Manager - Give certain websites the ability to store passwords, set cookies and more]]

Hi there, I have a problem with my iPod Classic (from 2009). Everytime I connect it to my computer (Windows), iTunes does not work anymore. Music is automatically deleted on my iPod. Any suggestions please?

Hi there, I have a problem with my iPod Classic (from 2009). Everytime I connect it to my computer (Windows), iTunes does not work anymore. Music is automatically deleted on my iPod. Any suggestions please?

Thanks, for info, iPod Classic is a slower machine compared the Nano, unfortunately, if you read these discussions, majority of the freezes involved iTunes 10. Although if might be just slow and some impatient user just disconnect the iPod ands cause more problems. ( Yes I also did that but safely by doing a iPod Hard Reset, before disconnecting).
Here is the Apple support article that may help you.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717
or my usual solution for Windows Users.
Antivirus has a tendency to freeze iTunes sync Operation with iPod Classic, causing a timeout, which corrupt your iPod filesystem, so when iTunes can't read the iPod, it is pointing to this problem. Other causes is when your iPod hardisk is dying, or your battery is dying causing hardisk crashes.
My suggestion.
Connect your iPod to the PC and run chkdsk, to fix any iPod diskerror, then disconnect it, after chkdsk complete.
Disconnect your PC from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
Stop the Antivirus program
Connect your iPod to the PC, using a high speed USB 2.0 port at the back of your PC, do not use any USB Hub.
When iTunes Open up, Restore your iPod please, this is for iTunes to map correctly, to fix the corrupted filesystem.
When Restore complete, eject the iPod and reconnect again.
Sync your ipod, preferably manually Manage in small batches and disconnect after every batch, to check that all is well.
When all sync is complete, and iPod disconnected, start back your Antivirus and connect back the Internet.
Good Luck!

Windows update does not work after using System recovery disk

I have a Toshiba Satellite c655 with WIndows 7 64 bit Home premium. The hard drive died on it, so I purchased a new hard drive and purchased the appropriate Recovery media from Toshiba. I followed the directions and installed the 3 disks on to the new hard drive. But Windows update does not work I get the following error: Windows update can not currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your PC    No matter what I try, I can not get it to work. And it will not let me install Windows Defender either. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time on this matter.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I get errors saying A problem is preventing the troubleshooter from starting.
That makes two similarities to the following thread. Both Windows Update and Troubleshooters fail to work correctly.

Spry Image Slideshow does not work in Explorer

My spry image slideshow works fine in Safari and Firefox, but does not work in Explorer.
A small box shows up in IE 8, and absolutely nothing shows up in IE 7.

Any Suggestions?

How did you get your slideshow to play in Internet Explorer? I'm using the same slideshow on my new website and it plays fine in everything but IE versions. Here's a test page I'm working on... http://4034.sandbox.i3dthemes.net/oceankayakbanzai.html
I looked at the code for your page and didn't notice anything different on mine. But yours works... Let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks!

Assigned F key to play an action does not work. Why? Using cs6 iMac and wireless key board

Assigned F key to play an action does not work to play the action on an image. When the F key is selected it seams to control computer attributes rather than the play action assigned in photoshop. Why? Using cs6 iMac and wireless key board.
Is this a possible preference setting in mac or is it a setting in cs6 photoshop ? Help and knowledge will be appreciated.

Open Link in New Window, sometimes does not work???

The problem is in FF4b9 an 10 (the only ones I tested). The problem is that when I open a link in a new window sometimes it does not work. Well, I am presented with a new instance of the browser as expected but it seems like the parameter is not passed or something. Also, I have noticed something weird about the new instance. There is a button labeled Firefox in orange and another set of minimize, maximize, and close buttons. Here is a screenshot:
http://i52.tinypic.com/ilejkn.png

There is this pref: browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground
But it doesn't have effect if you open links via the Library, it only works when opened via the browser window (menu, toolbar, sidebar).

Protected Mode of Reader X does not work if explorer.exe is not a parent process [2008R2 RDS/TS]

We are running IE8 as a RemoteApp on Windows Server 2008 R2 Remote Desktop Services "Terminal Server". It has Reader X installed.
When opening linked PDF document, it shows the protected mode "fail" dialog.
If, instead, explorer.exe is launched as remote app, and ie8 is started from explorer,
opening PDF files in protected mode works.
This is regardless of settings, 32/64 bitness, whether iexplore is launched as remote app or
in full RDP session using "alternate shell:". If explorer is not parent of the process subtree,
protected mode doesn't work.
What might be the issue, and is there a workaround that does not involve starting explorer.exe?

This problem is fixed in the latest Reader X update 10.1.

The Create List Item workflow action does not work in document library with document template

My end goal is more complex but below is a basic example of the issue I’m having that just simply does not work.
I'm trying to use a site workflow to create an item in a document library that has a document template applied to it but the file that gets created by the workflow is corrupt and cannot be opened.
I created a document library and edited the document template by adding some text to the header and changing it to a Word docx file instead of a Word dotx file. I tested the document template by clicking the files tab in the ribbon and then clicking new
document which opens the document template in Word and allows me to edit and save the document back to SharePoint. Then I created a SharePoint 2013 site workflow in SharePoint Designer that contains a single Create List Item action, and that action creates
an item in the document library with the name field statically defined. I published the workflow and then manually start it on the site. The workflow completes successfully and when I navigate to the document library the document has been created by the workflow.
When I click on the document to open it in the Word Web App it throws the error pictured below and if I open it in the Word client application it just opens a blank document and not the correct document template.
I also tried using a SharePoint 2010 workflow with pretty much the same results. Opening the document in Word Web App gives the same error as above and opening the document in the Word client application gives the error pictured below.
Come on Microsoft creating a Word Document in a SharePoint Document Library from a SharePoint Workflow should just work! Is this a bug or does anyone have any ideas on what is causing the this issue?

I had the same problem with corrupted document - this worked for me:
1. Create a 2010 Workflow which creates the list element in a document library
(you may start this workflow from your 2013 workflow if applicable)
2. In the Create New List Item properties - make sure to set ContentTypeId to your content type
("Id for indholdstype" is Danish for "Contenttype ID")
3. Your Content Type template should be a ".docx" file - NOT a ".dotx" file...!
(I have always created my templates for content types as .dotx files - seems Microsoft wants us to use ordinary .docx files as template files for content types)
Hope this helps you!

"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).

10.4, How to stop plug-ins update reminder, Windows fix does not work on Mac.

Need to get rid of bar across top saying plug-ins are not up-to-date. The "fix" posted for Windows does not work on my Mac. When I try for updates, none seem to install. How do I really find out if the ones I have are the latest available for my system? Everything seems to work OK as is. Could it be that my Mac is PPC and that there are plug-in updates that would work in 10.4 on Intel but not on PPC, and that FireFox cannot differentiate?
