Reader window jumps between monitors

I'm running Reader 9.5.1 on Linux Mint 13 Cinnamon. I have dual monitors setup as single X screen with the Nouveau driver. If I have Adobe Reader open on the right-hand monitor, and I open a PDF file, the Adobe Reader window jumps back to the left-hand monitor as the file is opened. This happens regardless of whether I open the file by using the File / Open menu in Acroread or by right-clicking on a PDF in Nautilus and choosing "Open with Adobe Reader".
This gets highly annoying, and it doesn't happen with any other application that I use - I can put any of them on the RH monitor and open files without the application moving. Anyone know why it happens or how to fix it?

I do the exact same thing but I have no problem.
You should post some code.

Reader window doesn't resize elements between monitors

Reader 11.0.10 on Windows 8.1 x64. I have a dual monitor setup with two 80cm (30") monitors. One is an Eizo EV3237 UHD monitor running at its native 3840x2160 resolution, the other is a Dell U3011 running at its native 2560x1600 resolution. Because the monitors are the same physical size but quite different resolution, I have unchecked the Control Panel option "Let me choose one scaling level for all my displays" (in Control Panel / Display), so that Windows chooses different scaling levels for each monitor to keep windows, menu text, icons etc the same size on both monitors. This works well for all applications *except* the two Adobe applications I have installed - Adobe Reader and Photoshop Elements 13. Both of these display the window elements such as menu text, icons etc at the same size as other applications on the Eizo UHD monitor, but at a ridiculously large size on the Dell monitor. For all other applications I use, when I drag a non-maximized application window between monitors, the window retains the scaling of the source monitor until half of the window is on the target monitor, at which point the scaling changes to that for the target monitor. However, both Reader and PSE13 retain the scaling of the high-res monitor even when the entire window is on the lower-res monitor, so all the window elements are too large.
Some Googling shows that Adobe have had scaling problems with their applications for years, but seem too incompetent to fix it.

Hello,
We have semiliar problems in sweden with Adobe Reader X 10.1 Swe and Internet Explorer 8.0 with streamed PDF files.
We had some issues and got them resolved by the following
Upgraded to Adobe Reader 10.1.2.45 Eng
- Print Issue:http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-wont-print-reader-10.html
- Grey box in Internet explorer: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-opens-grey-screen-browser.html
- Add site as trusted: Edit-> Preferences, unbox Enable Enhanced Security + add the host/url to site that is whitelisted to send pdf files
(the Automaticly trust sites from mu Win OS security zones doesnt work for us)
The thing is we run MUI pack on our Citrix servers and want Adobe Reader in Swe but it havent been translated yet...
So we have to wait for the swedish release on Adobe Reader X 10.1.2

Window movement between two monitors

Hello there.
I'm not sure if this question would be under Swing section or not... this is the best section I could match my problem with.
- I use two monitors on my computer
- Windows XP operating system
- JRE 1.6.0_16
- EIZO FlexScan L768 Monitors
When I drag a java swing application window from one monitor to the other, the java application window kind of gets stuck while moving, unlike any other windows based application. I thought it was something to do with my developed application. I noticed that it happens with other java swing applications as well. I tried using the [url http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorialJWS/uiswing/components/ex6/MenuDemo.jnlp]MenuDemo. This example window behaves the same way - makes it difficult to drag the window from one monitor to the other smoothly.
I have ensured that I have the latest drivers for my monitors.
I do not see a reason behind this. Can someone help me out please.
Thank you.

I use BT Yahoo! but when I try and navigate to email from the home page it keeps jumping between 'connected and waiting for login' and never loads up.

My internet service provider is BT in the UK. The home page is www.btinternet.com. After I've logged on, the home page displays fine - I can see the summary of my emails in one of the windows on the home page. The problem comes when I click on the mail application. The page then tries to load the email application. However, it never actually loads, it keeps jumping between connected and waiting for login. It never achieves it so I just have to click the 'back' button to get to the home page. I use chrome and ie but neither has this problem.

I retraced my steps to how i got the Google app:
App Store icon on Home Screen > Search, at bottom > entered Google
The first Google App on the screen appears:
Google logo small g in blue square: Google Search; Open (because it is already installed). Below that is a picture of the iPod with the usual Google Search screen. I have never inserted a link into a discussion group so i hope you can open this.

Does this bring us any closer?

Document windows jump

I just upgraded to Yosemite on my MacBook Pro running a dual monitor setup (MacBook & Cinema Display) and now when I have my document window on the Cinema Display if I do any thing such as select an object etc. the window jumps so its top half is on the lower part of the screen while the bottom half of the window goes off the bottom of the screen. If I move it back up it just jumps back when I try to do something again. Help!

I have the exact same issue CDLeaver, and think this might be a bug, where a retina display laptop is connect to a non-retina second monitor.
What I discovered is that when I move my secondary screen so that it is positioned above the primary macintosh screen, the InDesign document window on the second monitor continuously repositions itself, it continuously jumps when you move it into position and then start working on it.
Once I lined up the tops of both monitors in the System Preferences > Display Preferences, the problem went away.

Can I jump between two presentations without exiting presentation mode?

is it possible to quickly jump between two separate presentations without having to go out of presentation / play mode ??

OUCH! Random access in Keynote is difficult. It is essentially a linear presentation format. However, IF you want to do this only once, there might be a workaround:
Create a slide in presentation A that has a black rectangle that covers the entire slide; it could be any slide number, but most likely should be the last slide in the presentation to make it easier to find in a hurry. Make this your Hyperlink to presentation B. (see previous response)
Then, while showing presentation A, when you want to go to B, press the = (equal) key to display the slide selector on the preview display monitor; select the Hyperlink slide and go to it; click on the slide and that will trigger the hyperlink to B. By the way, it will look better if the first slide in presentation B also is all black to mask the transition.
The problem, however, will be returning to A where you left-off. There is another workaround for this. First create another black slide and make this #1 in presentation A. Then create a hyperlink at the end of B that will take you back to A, slide 1. Again, use the slide selector to take you back to the slide where you left-off previously. (When you first leave presentation A, be sure you know which slide number you left, so that you can return there (or the next slide) when you come back.)
Yes, it is cumbersome. Yes, it will not be seamless: there will be some pauses while you are selecting the proper slides and making the transitions. Yes, it should be easier. And, yes, it will be even more difficult to do this more than once (if you can do it at all) in a presentation.
Good luck.

Images Change Colors between monitors while the UI stays the same

Hey! Im having an issue where photoshop changes the colors when I move the window between my monitors, seen here: http://sta.sh/04y5s60vf3j This isnt due to the monitors themselves being different, it actually changes after a few seconds of moving it inbetween the monitors. The left one has been callibrated with a spyder 3 elite which I no longer have access to. I applied the file with windows color management instead of the spyder utility. The second one is new, and it is not callibrated by anything, but instead was done by hand with the built in brightness/contrast/custom RGB settings. Both of them are very close to eachother, enough so for my tastes. but when photoshop changes what the image looks like, it's causing problems. Interestingly enough, when I disable callibration for the monitor on the left, the image does not change colors between monitors, but instead always appears as it does on the right. but then they don't match up and the whole screen looked washed out because it's uncallibrated, so that doesnt do me any good. Another interesting thing to point out, is when this image is saved as a .JPG, and viewed with firefox the image appears exactly like the monitor on the LEFT (which is my main monitor) despite the left monitor being the one that is force changed. does anyone have any suggestions? It also appears that windows photoviewer is behaving the same way, though firefox does not. Meaning when I open an image in all 3 on the left monitor, they look the same, but when opened on the right monitor, windows photo viewer and photoshop both display the image as brighter and redder than firefox does. This is frustrating, because it seems photoshop is changing the image with my callibration on my left monitor to match what it looks like on the web, which it does. but it doesn't do this for the right monitor, or when the left is uncallibrated. Another issue I can see with this is even if the UI is the same shade of gray, the images are different between the monitors because of this change. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Alright! So I reread through all this, poked at some things on the internet, and I'm going to attempt to summarize what would be a good solution for all this (And it seems, it still won't be perfect, but to get myself into the best environment I can for not messing with images for an hour trying to make them look nice before I post them to the web. I painted something yesterday on the cintiq, popped it over to my laptop screen and it just looked washed out and terrible.)
1. Get a X-rite EODIS3 i1 Display Pro, Callibrate laptop and cintiq. I do have the money to drop on something like this, especially if it's a time saver.
     Things I'm not sure about:
          a. There was a ton of complaints about the software not working when I checked reviews, but also a ton that said everything was great. most of them were mac users though.
          b. I'm not sure if problems would still be posed, even while calibrated, by me having a wide gamut monitor.
          c. I'm a terrible excuse for a human being and I think the colors showing up brighter on the wide gamut screen is pretty (I should just make my images this bright on a normal screen and there won't be any issues. >.>)
2. Set Firefox to color manage (easy enough)
3. Change my photoshop working space to sRGB (since they'll have been calibrated at this point)
3. Accept the fact that most of the people who look at my work will be doing so on a monitor that is almost certainly uncalibrated, and I can't control what they will see on my screen, but I CAN control if the colors are -actually- what I want them to be on any properly calibrated device. which is probably the best way to go anyways.
4. Make paintings, have fun.
Now, you two have been going on about all sorts of interesting things in here, and it seems that calibration issue run much much deeper than I ever thought. Do either of you have recommendations for how I should tweak this list of things to do or other things I can/ should do? I'm not currently a working professional, but if I have anything to say about it, I will be within a few years (I'm going to school for illustration and studying concept design on my own time) so it'd be useful for me to get into good habits now.

Right way to jump between pages?

I am in trouble to find the correct way to jump between pages,I have a page alluser.jsp,
in which all usergroups and users are displayed,corresponding to every user's item,I
place a link to delete this user,as below:
<a href="removeuser.jsp?userName=<%=userName%>">delete</a>
in removeuser.jsp,after I have completed the task of deleting this user from database,I
want the client go back to alluser.jsp,where he can find that user has been removed,
but I have tried three different ways,the first,
response.sendRedirect("alluser.jsp"),but It displays the old page,seemingly not following
the logic of alluser.jsp:to fetch data from NOW_BE database,but just displays from the browser's
cache;
the second,
<jsp:forward page="alluser.jsp"/>,but it will forward the parameter userName onto the
alluser.jsp,which doesn't need any parameters,as result,in browser's location bar,I see
..../alluser.jsjp?userName=...,now I cannot refresh the page,because the browser will
prompt me whether to resend the request info to refresh the page;
the third,I simply use
javascript:location="alluser.jsp",but I got the same result as the first approach
now I have been driven crazy,on earth what is the good way to do these?
Please help me,thanks in advance

Instead of having 2 jsp forms, the processing can be done in the same form - "alluser.jsp".
The code below explains as to how this can be implemented.
The ResultSet gets updated without the deleted user.
<%
String message="";
String userid =request.getParameter("USER_ID");
if(userid == null)
userid="";
else
int delusercon=user.del_user_con(userid);
int deluser=user.del_user(userid);
String username=request.getParameter("username");
message=username + " "+ "has been cancelled!";
list=user.get_pendinguser();
}%>
<form>
<%=message%>
<%while(list.next()){%>
<table><tr><td>
<div align="center"><a href="alluser.jsp?USER_ID=<%=list.getString( userid)%>&username=<%list.getString(username)%>">
<B><FONT FACE="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" SIZE="2">
Deny</FONT></B></a></div>
</td></tr></table>
<%}%>
</form>
Hope this helps!!

Hello, I have a Mac computer with NVIDIA 750M dedicated graphics card and monitor EIZO but the problem was there when I was working with Windows and Acer monitor. When I open a file from Camera Raw in PS this is smaller than the screen so I double-click with the tool "hand" to fit on the screen, but the picture loses sharpness and becomes blurry. If you magnify the image even only slightly with the tool "zoom" the picture comes back clear. In Camera Raw instead is always sharp. I solve the problem by turning off the graphics card in PS but often use plugin that need the graphics card otherwise the processing time is much longer. I ask for help.
Thanks.

Why is there jumping between shots after exporting to quicktime from FCP7?

Working in FCP7, after exporting a self contained quicktime, there is jumping between shots. I tried to remove the transitions, rerendered then re exported but the jumping is still there. I can't figure out what's going on as it's not happening on all the sequence. Please help!!

Hi Kippybop - sorry to hear you sharing this problem, but nope....still not sorted.
So far I've got all the frame rates matching sequence settings. I've done two exports with and without transitions and there is still jumping between shots - however, it does seem to be shorter without the transition. So whatever the problem is, is something to do with the beginning and end of clips and is made worse, and extended by adding transitions - but this doesn't apply to all clips which is really baffling.
I've also made a new sequence and copied the original clips from the problematic sequence - still no change. So the only impovement is the removal of video transitions, which is not exactly ideal. I can watch the jumpy .mov on the 'finder' viewer full screen with no jumping, but all other media players show glitches between clips.
I've done a grab of a clip and the sequence settings, which I think are correct, but please if there are any generous FCP7 experts reading, any suggestions are very much appreciated...

Spaces switches away from application when moving window to another monitor

Using multiple monitors in Mavericks:
I often want a window from the same application on each monitor. Why? Because I'm working in one window, and I want to refer to another. Mostly it's the brower (Firefox), but sometimes it's Word or Excel too although I think this is a Mavericks issue.
Here's the issue: When I move the a window to another monitor, Spaces on the original monitor changes away from the current application.
This is frustrating, because I have to keep Cmd Tabbing to get back to my original application on both monitors... how do I prevent this from happening?
Thanks!

This reply from Grzegortz Krzminski was helpful - problem solved:
"Hover your mouse over the tasbar icon of the application (the thumbnail preview appears) > right click on the thumbnail preview > select Move > hold the button and move the window."

How to to slect opened window on specific monitor in multi monitor system

Hi,
I have four monitor attached to my box. I have already implemented code to move selected window on given monitor on hokey. e.g window1 is opened on monitor one and if that window is active then using hot key i am moving it to specified monitor like Ctrl+1
move to monitor 1, Ctrl + 2 move to monitor 2 ..so on..
Now i want to implement another hot key, which will activate the window opened on specified monitor. means if i press Alt +1 then if any window is on the monitor should get active and if i press alt + 3 then if any window is there on monitor 3 should
get activated.So how to achieve this?

Hi Vipul,
>>I have already implemented code to move selected window on given monitor on hokey
I'm not sure which way you have used to accomplish this feature, in my experience, we can use Screen class to handle multiple display devices:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/System.Windows.Forms.Screen(v=vs.110).aspx
By using
Screen.AllScreens property, we can get an array of all displays on the system, then Screen.WorkingArea can help us to determine on which display the window is showing.
This previous case is also helpful:

Finder Keyboard Shortcut to Jump between Sidebar and Items

Is there a keyboard shortcut to jump between the sidebar items? E.g. "Documents, Downloads, etc." and the Documents themselves e.g. "Document A".
I've been searching for one for sometime, and there didn't seem to be any immediate solution.
Thank you!!

Hi, I wish there was but there isnt. The best thing you can do is press the F4 key and it opens the windows you have. so you could open up 2 different finder windows and just F4 back and forth

ANNOYING: Ovi window jumping out each time I sit b...

Dear OVI Developers,
Each time I go out and return to sit back at my PC, OVI Suite window jumps out.
Now dear developers, if anyone reads it - this issue is dreadfully annoying and has been reported on many forums for a really long time.
Yet on all the threads I've seen (at least here, at Discussions) I have seen no single entry saying "we will fix" or anything.
If coding a simple checkbox "do not pop out" is really that hard, then at least say "we will not fix it". Just few words of information would be sufficient.
Your's sincerely,
Desperate user.

I suspect that "every time you sit back at your PC" is a bit of an exaggeration unless your PC has some kind of motion-detector that knows when you are there...
There is a certain amount of control that you can exercise over Ovi Suite - the easiest way to make sure it isn't active unless you specifically need it is to go to Tools>Options>General and un-tick the box marked "Start Nokia Ovi Suite automatically when your computer starts up" (see the attached file "ovi_suite_startup1.jpg"). This means that you can't quickly open Ovi Suite from the system tray, you have to go via the desktop or start menu, but it's only a very small sacrifice.
Once you use Ovi Suite, it remains open in the system tray. To kill it, just click the Ovi icon in your system tray then select Exit - see attached image "ovi_suite_closedown1.jpg".
Provided that Ovi Suite is not active in the system tray, it will not interrupt you - it will not attempt to carry out any scheduled activities and nor will it pop up when you connect your phone to the PC by USB cable.
I don't know what the specific issue is that people are moaning about on the forums, perhaps they simply haven't bothered to check how to restrict Ovi Suite's activities. The only issue I have noticed is that when active, Ovi Suite tries to hijack your connection mode - if you connect in mass storage mode to transfer files via Windows Explorer or you connect by Media Transfer mode to use Ovi Player, Ovi Suite pops up and switches your connection to PC Suite mode. This is indeed irritating, but easily fixed by follwoing the two tips I have just given.
