  • How can i Open mail attachments in a separate Window

    Who knows how I can open attachments from mails like PDF and so on in a new window so that I just see he attachment not the email text and the attachment?
    Mercy

    if you're using the iPad's mail application just tap on the attachment and it should open up in a new window with the attachment shown full screen. if you're using a web site to view you're email it's up to the particular site though if you do a long press you may get an option to open the file in a separate window
    Really hope that helps

  • When I open my files to download my pictures from my iphone 6 plus, there is a windows icon with a hard drive.  What is that? And why can't I delete it?

    When I open my files to download my pictures from my iphone 6 plus, there is a windows icon with a hard drive.  What is that? And why can't I delete it?  I already reset my phone and a week later they came back. 

    I download my pictures by:
    !) Connecting my iphone to he computer.
    2) It will open a window or I will go to my computer and select iphone device.
    3) Open up Iphone folders and download.
    When I do that, I see a windows icon, with what looks to be a hard drive.  And when I click on it, it leads me back to my desktop.  Right now, I only have one.  I know by tomorrow I will have more.  It just keeps spreading. 

  • I want to open a folder in a separate window by clicking on it.  For some reason when I click on a folder it just replaces the one I was just in.  I want them both to be open at the same time without having to go through several steps.

    I want to open a folder in a separate window by clicking on it.  For some reason when I click on a folder it just replaces the one I was just in.  I want them both to be open at the same time without having to go through several steps. Old apple operating systems made it easy to have several folders open at one time. 

    Eric, thanks that works but seems like an extra added step also to do it that way.  I've got to move and organize a ton of files and I'm looking for a easy way to get this done.  I could also open the folder into a separate tab and then drag the tab out so it becomes an open window but thats a lot of fussing around also with extra steps.  Not sure why these newer operating system seems more confusing and less user friendly than what they used to.  In the past I could just click on any folder and it would open in a separate window making it really easy to copy or move files from one place to the other just by simply dragging them from one window to the other.  Seems like I'm going through several extra steps now to do a simple task. 

  • Hyperlink to open a file in a new window

    I have been trying to format the hyperlink to a file so it opens on a new window. iWeb allows us to check the box 'open in new window' only for links to external pages; when we insert a link to a file, I realize the app uploads the file to the website, but I could not find a way to have it open in a new window. Is there a way we can get to and format the hyperlink reference?

    1. Create the link that connects to the file (pdf or whatever) on a separate page of your site on iWeb.
    2. Publish your site, then go on the internet to the page that has this link. Keep this page open on your Safari or some web browser you use.
    3. Go back to your iWeb and create another link on a different page (home page, for example) of your site, and connect this link to the URL of the open page in step 2 with "Link to: An External Page" option. Click to choose "Open link in new window" on the Inspector panel. Name this link that has something to do with the file of interest in step 1.
    4. On your iWeb, go the page created in step 1 and make sure "include page in navigation menu" is not selected or checked in the Inspector panel so that web visitor will not get to this page directly.
    5. Publish your site. Now go to your site on the web to the page in step 3. Click on the link and it will open a new page with the link that has the file attached. Visitor can now open the file in that new window.
    • It seems complicated, but you'll get it.
    • You may need to refresh the pages on Safari to make it work if you have left Safari on throughout your work.
    • For this method, you have to dedicate a page to carry the link that connects to the file.
    Example: I create a page that has list of links to the files for viewing. These files are weekly reports. Each file is named by its date such "March 4, 2011" "March 11, 2011" etc.. This page will be hidden from visitors at first when they visit my site. Then I create on my home page a link called "Weekly Reports" that open to "External Page" via the option I have in Inspector. Even though it says "External Page" I use the URL of the hidden page containing all the actual files. On this "hidden" page, I also has a link called "Weekly Report" but this link is connected directly to this page. I do this only because I want the "hidden" page to look like my home page in terms of displayed links.

  • How to open KM file in the same window

    When we open KM file by /irj/go/km/docs/... link it is previewed in a new Internet Explorer window.
    We changed Targed property to Self for iView navigation in LayoutSet render but the image file is still opend in new Window.
    How to workaround this?

    We changed Target Window Type property value of ResourceRenderer of Navigation iView  to Self.
    When an authenticated user  tries to open KM file it is opened in the same window if file URL include /irj/servlet/prt/prtroot....
    If file URL contain /irj/go/km/docs/.. it is opened in new window.
    When an anonymous user  tries to open KM file it is opened in a new (popup) window.
    We need that anonymous user can open km files in the same window.
    How to work around this?
    We use light framework.

  • Opening .NEF files in PS3 on Windows XP

    I cannot open my .NEF images in my PS3 that I took on my Nikon D7000.  I am trying to convert them to .jpeg and I have tried to open them in Bridge and I have also tried to convert them to .jpeg through tutorials I have found telling me to use the image processor tool in Photoshop.  I cannot even see/view the images in Bridge and when I go to convert them to .jpeg, it tells me it cannot be done.  I am new with shooting in raw and I have always shot in .jpeg, so this is all so new to me.  I am not sure if all of my programs are way too outdated to be able to do this, including my operating system (Windows XP).  Shouldn't it be possible for me to open these images and convert them to jpegs?  Is there an update I need to download, or something, to make this work?  PLEASE HELP! 

    Thank you for your reply.
    I i can drag & drop a website from Firefox on Mac onto my desktop and reopen it in Firefox in Mac AND Safari Browser, why i cannot open them in Firefox on Windows.
    I can drag and drop URLs from Firefox on Windows and reopen them
    So what's so wrong about adding support for these kinda files making them work vice versa?
    I'm working this way because it's easier and faster and more organized for many reasons when exchaning URLs.
    Reason 1.: (keep things organized and in focus)
    If i send somone many many web documents (research), there is much more information at first sight, rather than copy pasting the URLs itself plus having to add a description to every URL.
    For example this particular page here where we are on it describes itself in the web document name:
    ''' opening .webloc files in Firefox on Windows Firefox Support Forum Firefox Support'''
    read it > double klick > open in browser tab > done
    or else
    '''https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/761091'''
    if converted to text only (e-mail, etc.) then i have to > mark url > copy/paste > add in browser.
    Understandable?
    But, hey, there is no reason for a reason because there are so many reasons. Fact is that a file which was created from Firefox should work Cross Plattform.
    Or du you think i will stay with the external "webloc2url" Perl Script Application forever dragging webloc files from FF on Mac one by one?
    If there is a single person who can write a Perl Script application converting/re-writing webloc files to correct URLs and open them without the hassle, why a company like mozilla can't do implement the code into FF?
    Go and Google all the complaints about webloc files from Mac.
    I mean, ehm ...

  • I can't open wmv files with Lion.  Windows media player doesn't work.  Any suggestions?

    Unable to open wmv files using Lion.  Windows media player doesn't work.  Are there any suggestions.

    macfriedchikkin's reply would make sense to you if you were trying to open a camera, but if you are trying to view streming media from a web site that is a different story. It helps to be very specific about what you are tyring to do on these forums.
    I belive you would go into Firefox Preferences menu and tell it  to use VLC as the application to play WMV files. I'm still running Tiger,  however, so I can't tell you if it the latest version works wel that way. The Tiger version doesn't seem to, but a lot may have changed since then. (I'm only just getting around to installing Leopard next week now that there are too may apps I can't run on Tiger. ) Perhaps someone else on this forum can better help you set  up the player in your browser.
    Or you can cut out the middleman and give VLC the direct video URL:
    Choose Open File from the File menu and paste in the URL of the video, say,
    http://azul.streamguys.com/auduboncal-1
    or http://azul.streamguys.com/auduboncal-2
    Your media should play this way. Dont forget to save the playlist for later.
    I'l keep investigating on my end, and yes, I'm also  encouraging certain people who are streaming windows media in to switching to a different format

  • My device does not appear in the iTunes window.  Instead a separate window opens so I cannot sync

    My device does not appear in the iTunes window.  Instead a separate window opens so I cannot sync my device.  I have tried with both my iPad, my iPod and my iPhone.  In each case a separate window opens showing that it is fully connected to the computer, but it does not open in iTunes. 
    I have followed previous instructions to stop then start the device manager.  I have even uninstalled then reinstalled iTunes, but no luck.  Can someone help??

    Hello Linda Lev,
    It sounds like Windows recognizes that your devices are conneted, but iTunes does not. I recommend the troubleshooting from the article named:

  • Can't pin windows file explorer to taskbar

    On a fresh install of Windows 8, windows file explorer is already pinned to the task bar on the desktop. I accidently unpinned this icon and now I cannot get it back. The logical way to do this is to go to the start screen, right click file explorer and
    choose the 'Pin to taskbar', but for some reason I don't get this option for file explorer. I can pin lots of other desktop applications, but just not file explorer. I work mostly from the desktop so it's really annoying to have to flick back to the start
    screen every time I want to start file explorer.
    Thinking I must be going mad, I tried the same thing on the Windows Server 2012 desktop and now I have exactly the same problem there!!

    Hi,
    Windows Explorer should has the option to pin to taskbar:
    If you don’t have this option, try to use SFC /scannow to check system files.
    Or you can perform a system refresh for test:
    Click
    Control Panel
    Click General on the left column
    Under the Refresh your PC without affecting your files, click
    Get started

  • Windows - file explorer crashes

    Hi,
    I have windows 8.1 on my laptop. The file explorer suddenly has started crashing when I try to open it. To open specific files, at times I try the search options which helps to open the file explorer. However, when I right click on any file, it again crashes,
    putting the system on a hang mode for almost a minute.
    Please suggest resolution for this.

  • Bridge(CS3) conflict with Windows file explorer

    Bridge will crash on me at least twice a day. I use Bridge and Windows file explorer simultaneously copying and moving files across a network. When Bridge quits I sometimes lose my network connection and have a lot of trouble re-connecting.
    I have done the usual delete preference, trash cache etc., nothing seems to be working.

    Not sure what is going on there, but have a suggestion. You are increasing your odds of Bridge crashing, and trashing the cache, if you move too fast. When in Bridge wait for the spinning arrow in lower left corner to stop (it is building the thumbs) before changing folders.
    Don't see any correlation between network connection and Bridge crashing. Perhaps if you have a slow computer you are overloading it with tasks and it can not keep up. Minimize programs running at same time.
    Also, run task manager and see what the processor is doing. If CPU useage goes up markedly that will confirm the problem.

  • The latest version of iTunes does not allow me to open a playlist in a separate window.  I need this feature.  Is there another way?  You used to be able to double click a playlist and have it appear in a new window.

    Others have commented on this too.  It seems to be one of the 'improvements' of the newer version you are supposed to embrace with joy as an exciting new development.  You can send feedback to Apple but realize you may be perceived as standing in the path of  progress.
