"Open With" drop-down menu has multiple instances of apps

When I right-click on a file and select "Open With", the resulting drop-down menu contains many, many multiple instances of the same app - five Firefox's, five Quicktime Player's, at least three instances of every relevant app. Why is that happening, and how can I clean that menu up?

I happen to have the same problem. However I cannot find the two files in step two:
2.
Trash the following two files in the Macintosh HD > Library > Caches folder:
* com.apple.LaunchServices-0140.csstore
* com.apple.LaunchServices-014nnn.csstore
I did input my UID number as you are told to do so in the instructions. The only I can find is the one in step six a:
6.
Verify that the problem is solved. If not:
1. Trash the com.apple.LaunchServices.plist file in the Home > Library > Preferences folder of the affected account. See Note [3].
Is there a reason as to why I cannot find those files? Oh and I did delete it; all it did was reset the file associations.

Is there a way to get ACR to appear in the "Open With" drop down menu?

Hi,
Is there a way to get Adobe Camera Raw to appear directly along with CS3 in the Mac's ( OS 10.4.11) "Open With" drop down menu?

If you installed ACR it in the right place, and are targeting the kind of file that ACR can handle, it should be there.
I have found that there are certain Tiff Scans that won't open in ACR but if you just Duplicate them in Bridge, and then target the Duplicate, they will then open in ACR.
At least they do so for me.

Is there a way to get Adobe Camera Raw to appear in "Open With" drop down?

HI,
I was wondering if there might be a way to get a direct link to Adobe Camera Raw to appear in "Open With" drop down menu along with the other choices?

I would think you'd just need to select the Adobe Application you're using... whichever that one is, then the APP would know what to do with RAW.
What are they set for now?

Reset the printing system and then try adding the printer again.

Problems with drop down menu in html snippet

Hi all,
I am trying to use a form with a drop down menu so the user can jump directly to the corresponding page. I am using the code generated by http://javascript.internet.com/generators/drop-down-menu.html, and it works correctly when I test it in the "Show me the drop down menu" option on their page.
This is the html code:


<BODY>




<form name="jump">
<select name="menu" onChange="location=document.jump.menu.options[document.jump.menu.selectedIndex] .value;" value="GO">
<option value="">select genre</option>
<option value="http://www.mygaragebandstudio.com/blues_rock.html">blues/rock</option>

</select>
</form>
When I paste this code into an html snippet in iWeb, my page does not work correctly after publishing to a folder. The jump to location doesn't open its corresponding page. Instead, it defaults to the same page that has the drop down menu, only the menu doesn't appear any more. Instead, I get a "hole" where the drop down menu used to be.
This is my URL: http://www.mygaragebandstudio.com/jingles.html
I examined the code of the page with the html snippet generated by iWeb, and to my surprise I couldn't even find the html code of the form with the drop down menu. Where is it?
Please help!

JSYK,
You didn't actually give PressWeb the green star by marking his post as the post that solved your question. You merely marked the question as answered but never actually marked PressWeb's post as being the post that answered your question, which will in effect reward PressWeb with the green star as seen by a green star appearing in the header for his post. I only mention this because you have incorrectly mentioned rewarding PressWeb with a green star.
Hope that helps.

IPhone 4 wifi portal login with drop down menu

Hi,
I'm extremely happy with my iPhone 4. I use it often in WiFi hotspots (hotels, university, train stations etc) and the new portal log in system is really handy. Previously I used a third party WiFi portal logging in app which is now no longer necessary. HOWEVER, there seems to be a problem with the iPhone 4 remembering log in protocols for WiFi portals that include selecting an item from a drop down menu before logging in. For instance, the WiFi hotspots in trainstations here in the Netherlands work with several protocols depending on through which organisation you can log in. Before entering your log in details you have to select through which organisation you have access to such a hotspot. The third party logging in app was able to remember how to do this, but the iPhone 4 auto logging in thing (sorry, I don't know the term) does not remember. It's frustrating to have to fill the details in every time. And I can't even use the third party app any more because it needs primary connection to the local WiFi before it can log in, and the iPhone 4 won't give a primary connection if you don't fill in the details to log in (and if you do, you're already logged in and the third party app is useles...)
Sorry for my rant, I'm wondering if there's a way to make the iPhone 4 log in tool-thing remember the protocol for logging in with drop down menus, or if there will be an update to fix it...
Thanks,
Tasmin
P.S. I'm running iOS 4.1

are you sure your stop() are in the right place??
eg.. on the last frame of the onRollOver animation??
also... why have you got on(releaseOutside); ???
onRollOut will suffice.

DWT file not updating with drop-down menu edits rom Fireworks

Aughh! I am almost done with my website, when I go back to
Fireworks and add a couple new tabs on a drop-down menu. I update
the DWT file in Dreamweaver, but one of two things happens: either
the update simply doesn't "take", or all of the <body>
section is mysteriously deleted from the DWT file. If I preview the
Fireworks template (from Fireworks), everything is as it should be,
but not when I preview in Dreamweaver. Not sure if this is a
Fireworks issue or a Dreamweaver so I've posted in both. No one in
the FIreworks forum has come up with any suggestions yet.
What the hell?
Thanks in advance for the help,
Brian

>so I've posted in both

Basic Form with Drop Down Menu Help

Hi Guys,
I have just started using dreamweaver and i dont use code or anything yet. I have been following a tutorial from thesitewizard which runs through the basics of creating a web page in the design screen. It created a form to insert but i need to know how to create a form which has a drop down menu to have say 4 or 5 options to select the normal name email comments etc fields and submit button to enbale people to contact me. Can anyone help with this. Pleae keep in mind i am very new to this and dont have any code experience etc at all.
Thanx in advance for any help.
cheers
chris

You will need to use a form processing script to handle your form data. This isn't terribly difficult, but it's more than you can do in Design View alone.
Have a look at this form building service.

Another one to look at - although I've never used it myself, it gets mentioned a lot in these groups.

I just updated to 25.0 and I noticed the History drop down menu has been simplified and Back, Forward and Home are now gone. Can these be restored?

I am running on a Mac (Lion) with FF 25.0. I typically hide the toolbar because I like to max out my screen space without having to go into full screen mode. So I typically use a custom keyboard command to navigate forward and back during my browser session, but occasionally the keyboard command fails and the page is unresponsive. In the past all I had to do was go up to the History drop down menu and choose "Back" or "Forward". I would also use the "Home" selection to get back to my homepage. But ever since I updated to 25.0 those selection are now gone from the History menu.
Is there any way to restore them? And are they gone for all users (was this a global change) or are one of my add-ons simply not playing nice and causing this problem? TIA!

On WinXP Back, Forward, and Home was last in the Firefox 3.6 versions and disappeared as of Firefox 4.0 - and hasn't been seen since.
Doesn't the Mac OSX versions of Firefox have Back and Forward in the context menu (right-click), as Windows and Linux versions do?

Bit of layers confusion with drop down menu

Hi guys.
I have been teaching myself web design for about 4 months,
and am still pretty clueless about a frightening amount of stuff.
I am really in a bit of a mess and am hoping someone can help
me out it.
I am doing a web site that needs to have a tabbed drop-down
menu running along the bottom of the banner.
I started doing this using some HTML and CSS code I found
online, but ended up having problems with displaying correctly in
IE. So I have scrapped it in favour of doing one in flash.
The only thing is, directly below the banner, I have a div
that contains image links. When my drop downs, expand they will go
well ontop of the area containing the image links. So my question
is , does the flash drop down's page size automatically have to be
big enough to contain the menu when expanded, or is it possible to
have the flash page size expand according to whether the menu is
expanding or not, so that there is still clickable access to the
link images underneath,when the menu is not expanded.?
Sorry if this is a very convoluted explanation. If someone
understands what I am trying to achieve and help me find any way to
make it happen, I would be hugely grateful, as I have a client who
is blown away by the design, and i dont wanna sour the relationship
by being unable to sort out this functionality.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Need help please with drop down menu

AS2 I created a drop down menu for my portfolio. my setup is my site mc, within that mc it my portfolio and the drop down menu with five buttons. I want to link on of those button not to the root, but in the same area as the drop down menu/ this is how it is set up.
sceen1 and inside sceen1 is navebar with the drop down menu. Inside the menu are my buttons. I dont need it to link at the root(sceen1) I need to link one of the buttons to a frame in the navbar area. Sorry and I hope you can understand what I wrote.

What code have you tried? Where do you have the code planted? If you plant all of the code in one place, such as the main timeline then it might be easier for you to manage targeting whichever objects you intend to.

How to build advanced search with drop down menu (ASP)

Hi,
I'm using CS4 with ASP / SQL. I have a search page which contains only 2 fields; one is user input (search term), the other is a drop down menu to define which column they want to search on. How can I define the SQL statement - or can I only choose to search on values in the table, rather than on columns?
thanks

Which dropdown menu you want to customized ?The specific menu we would like to customize is the 'Action' menu on the Person form that usually contains 'Create Employment' and so on. We have a specific recruiter responsibility that we would like to limit to 'Create Applicant'. I have been unable to come up with a combination of steps in personalizations that sets that value in the dropdown and allows it then be unchangeable. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. I would prefer not to create a custom form but without personalizations, I might have to.

Need help with Drop Down Menu _ URGENT!!

Hello -
I'm new to Dreamweaver. I actually have an old version
(Dreamweaver MX 2004).
I'm updating a website for work and this needs to be done as
soon as possible so I'd appreciate if anyone can be so kind as to
shed light on ANYTHING. =/
This is what I need:
I need a drop down menu; when a selection is chosen, I need
information regarding that selection to appear on the bottom of the
page. (I am working off an Excel sheet - it has list of service
descriptions along w/ the unit price, frequency & other fields.
So If I chose "database hosting" off the drop down list,
information would be generated (ie. it's corresponding unit price,
frequencies, etc.)
I've attached an example of a code but I cannot use that code
(which has JavaScript) to tweak what I need exactly.
I am VERY new to this so if anybody can help be out I would
GREATLY appreciate it.
Thanks!!

Google search wont open from drop down menu

When I go to Google to search I open the drop down bar to select a previous search and it wont open I have to manually type in the search window to search.

Mouse clicking wouldn't work for me either in the Google drop down box but up/down keys followed by enter do. I hope a quick fix is in order for this.
