Progress indicator in the status bar

Bridge often does a number of time-consuming activities where it would be useful as a user to know how far along it is, and how far it has to go. Since most of these are done in the background and don't interfere with the user doing more things, a progress meter would be inappropriate. However, the status bar is good place for such info. Currently, the status bar says what it's doing--just not how far along it has to go. Clearly, some operations cannot be known ahead of time, but of those that are known, it'd be great to know where it is in its task.

Thanks for you feedback. You wish has been granted (a "nn jobs pending" display indicate the number of thumbnails remaing to be thumbnail or metadata to be extracted, etc.. There are also better and more accurate progress dialogs). Check out the free beta of Bridge CS3 (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/photoshopcs3/)

  • Problem w Plug-in Check page: the "Update" button for my outdated version of the WMP plugin does not do anything, and no link is indicated in the status bar when I mouse over the button.

    In Firefox, I select Tools > Add-ons > Find Updates. The Plugin Check page comes up in the browser. The entry for the WMP Plugin indicates it is out of date. I click on the "Update" button and nothing happens. When I mouse over the button, no link is indicated in the status bar (it continues to read "Done").
    The entries for the other plugins indicate they are current. When I mouse over the "Up to date" button for each of those entries, a link is indicated in the status bar.
    I am running Windows XP SP2 on a 2005 Dell Inspiron 6000 (1.6 GHz Pentium M processor, 590 MHz bus, 504 MB RAM). I have Norton Internet Security 2010 installed and running.

  • Why Doesnt the iPod Touch 4G contain a battery percent indicator on the status bar at the top like the iPhone

    Why is the battery life percentage indicator shown on the iPhone not available on the ipod touch

    I guess Apple just thought it wasn't necessary although I wish they did include the battery life percentage indicator.

  • A second non-functional progress bar is always visible on the status bar, how can I get rid of it?

    The second bar is inside of the sizing grip on the right side of the status bar. It does nothing, but take up space. The functional progress bar appears only when it is working inside of the message panel and outside of the authentication panel on the left side of the status bar. I've turned the status bar off and then on again--no luck. I've also tried disabling all add-ons--no luck. I've also changed themes--no luck. Do I need to re-install the browser?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    If you have many extensions then you can first enable half of the extensions to test which half has the problem.
    Continue to divide the bad half that still has the issue until you find which one is causing it.

  • I recently updated to Firefox (desktop) 6.0.2 & love it but please can you tell me an EASY way HOW I can I get the status bar to display at the bottom so I can see the status of my downloads, safe sites & that sync is either in progress or finished.

    Windows 7 64-bit
    Firefox v. 6.0.2
    Norton 360 v.5

    Firefox has a status panel that shows you what is happening during page loading, and also shows the destinations of links when you mouse over them. The status bar showed that as well. You really do not lose that information. I found that I like the addons bar better than the status bar because I could put more buttons on it.

  • Where is the blocked pop-up indicator now that the status bar is gone?

    In Firefox 3, we had this:
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Pop-up%20blocker?s=pop-ups&as=s
    When blocking a pop-up, Firefox displays an information bar, as well as an icon Popup-blocked-en-win.png in the status bar.
    Firefox 4 BETA, the status bar is gone. How do I easily add a blocked pop-up to the exclusion list so it will open in the future?

    Thanks for your reply to this question. I believe that "show the blocked pop-up" ''was'' an option in FireFox's built-in popup blocker. As the OP mentioned, it is listed parenthetically on the [[Pop-Up Blocker Help Page|Pop-Up Blocker Help Page]]. Also, I don't run much in the way of add-ons and extensions, and no extensions were disabled when I updated this morning, but nonetheless the option seems to have disappeared. Since this problem doesn't have many "me toos," maybe it only happens under specific circumstances?

  • How do I enable some scripts to run in some programs/websites and what happened to the status bar of my Mozilla Firefox 4?

    Well, first of all, I was tying to create a web-based computer game in Notepad in H.T.M.L., C++, and JavaScript codes. But when I tried to open the completed product, Firefox only came up with a blank page. What do I do with this? And also, I unwittingly removed the "Status Bar" on the bottom side of my browser(the one that always says "Transferring data from/to..."), and when I tried to bring it back up, I couldn't because I don't know how, since I'm new to Mozilla Firefox 4. If you could help me with these problems, Then I would greatly appreciate it.

    You can install the Status-4-Evar extension to regain some functionality from previous Firefox versions that was lost with the removal of the Status bar.
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" after you have installed the Status-4-Evar extension and drag the items (Status Text, Progress Meter, Download Status) upon the Add-ons Bar (View > Toolbars > [X] Add-on Bar)<br />
    Also check the Options of Status-4-Evar in Firefox (or Tools) > Add-ons

  • Status bar missing. How do you know if a site is secure without the status bar?

    Found the status bar at bottom of page very useful. Its now missing. How can I tell the downloading progress and more importantly if a page is a secure site? Live in a rural area with slow internet service and both download speed and security is very important to me. Security is VERY important, as do a lot of banking and bill paying on line. Saw someplace in questions and answers that the "Status Bar" was dropped in version 4. It was working for me up through 4.0 Beta 4, but not in Beta 7. If I missed the news please let me know and also how do I tell if on a "secure" page now? Is there an "add on" that will give me the "Status Bar" back?

    I have the same issue, i miss the fact that i cant watch my downloads in the status bar. as for the secure lock symbol, i found once i visit a secure site e.g HSBC website. a big green bar appears in the URL. any news post back.
    cheers

  • Where is the Status Bar in FF 7.0.1?

    I have just updated to FF 7.0.1 from FF 3.6.16. I am unable to find the status bar in the new version, to know the progress of my web page downloads. How do I get the FF 3.6.16 Status Bar like function in this new version?

    The Status Bar was removed in an earlier version of Firefox and replaced with the Add-on Bar.

  • Printing to pdf is stalled at the status bar stage under acrobat 9.5.4

    I have this issue about printing to pdf. No matter what program (Word, Notepad...) I use to print to pdf by selecting the Adobe PDF option under the choices of "Print" window, this is what would happen:
    1) New windown pops up OK for me to name the pdf file and location to save the file to
    2) Then, the status bar of the pdf printing progress pops up. However, this progress bar would get stuck for ever, not going all the way !!!!
    I have Adobe Acrobat Std 9.5.4 installed. My PC runs win7/home/64bit. I am not using AVG free anti-virus. Avira free anti-virus is running on my PC.
    Please help !!!!  Thanks much !!!!

    Hi, Thanks much for your reply. Unfortunately, it did not my issue:
    1) Print to file: "Print to file" did produce a file. However, this file could not be opened by acrobat.
    2) Restart AcroTray: I did this. Again, It did not solve my issue with printing to pdf. It gets stalled again in the process bar window.
    What is acrobat so difficult?
    Any other idea?  thanks.

    The icon you see is indicating that a handsfree is connected to the phone. If you have not connected a handsfree and still get this icon I suggest that you update the phone software using the Update Service program. If you have not installed Update Service on your PC, you can download it from here.

    Your code is absolutely unreadable - even if someone was willing to
    help, it's simply impossible. I do give you a few tips, though: If you
    understand your code (i.e. if it really is YOUR code), you should be
    able to realize that your minimum and maximum never get set (thus they
    are both 0) and your exam 3 is set with the wrong value. SEE where
    those should get set and figure out why they're not. Chances are you
    are doing something to them that makes one 'if' fail or you just
    erroneously assign a wrong variable!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Maybe a long shot, but WD is not known for the quality of some of their enclosures, although I do like the drives themselves. It may be worth mounting this drive in a different enclosure, something like one of OWC's FireWire enclosures with the highly reliable Oxford chip sets. I wouldn't be inclined to trust a WD enclosure, especially if it already seemed to be acting in a flakey manner.
    Here's an example of what I mean:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MEP924FW8E2O/
    I have 3 of these and I really like them.
    From what I understand, if the drive spins up, it is often possible to recover data from it. To be absolutely certain to destroy the data, you just about have to take a hammer to the disk. Hopefully, there will be a way to get your data back.
    Good luck!
