Save Open dialog box opening very slow

I have windows 7 professional 64bit OS. whenever i try to open/save as dialog box it appears very slow, then it will say it is not responding then after 10-15sec it will come alive.
Need help!!!!!!

Blair,
I followed your suggestions above....reset IE ...clean boot. Didn't solve the problem. (had trouble making that MSCONFIG window bigger !? <wink>)
Problem still exists. And to be clear, here is the problem(s) ...I believe they are all interrelated.
#1. I end the explorer.exe process and restart it. Run Explorer and start clicking folders in my FAVORITES. System hangs for about 10 seconds before it catches up.
Alternatly, after a explorer.exe restart, if I run explorer and start clicking down through folders from the C: drive, there is no hang.   SUSPECT - some sort of file for favorites needs to be rebuilt?!
#2. Open MS Word. Type a few letters. Select File/Save. Most icons under Favorites are white. Trying clicking more than one, but system hangs for ten seconds until icons fill in.
#3. WINDOWS button, start typing in the search INTERNET....5-10 seconds before Internet Explorer (and other INT* things show up.! Usually this is instantaneous.
System Info:
Great machine and fast for over a year, and now this started FYI.
OS Name   Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
Version   6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601
Dell System XPS L321X

ACTIONS TAKEN: (estimated 30 reboots today)
- Ensure all folders are GENERAL under properties
- Advanced Attributes - turned off "allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties"
- Checked Indexed location is C: drive/ User/ just my data areas....reindexed
- Tried reboot with Windows Search service disabled....no help. Turned back on.
- Tried MS Essentials off. Tried Firewall off
- Rebuilt ICONCACHE - was 8mb, now less 450kb
- Archived OUTLOOK down to a reasonable size (and had to do the manual compress to reduce the file size after)
- turned off some Windows visual effects.
- Turned off Dropbox from autostarting....this was before I tried the Clean Boot
- turned by ON (default) in Startup - though it has Unknown MFG and no details :~(   , i found that it likely is needed for my 64 bit machine.
Any help would be appreciated.

"Save As" Dialog Box Opens As Full Screen. How to Disable?

At some point my "Save As" dialog box began to open as full screen. Don't know why. There is no way that I can find to get it out of full screen mode. I've looked at the preferences and can't find any obvious control for this behavior. It's not a big deal, but it's very annoying. I've not been able to find anywhere else that this question has been asked.
I tried "Save As Other" and it behaves the same way.
The document itself is not opened full screen.
I'm using Windows 7. Currently I'm running Adobe Reader XI, but the behavior started before that. I think I may have accidentally typed in some combination of keys (or dropped something on the keyboard) that set some kind of option somewhere.
Thanks for any help.

Wouldn't you know it. By entering this question a similar question finally showed up. The answer is to right-click in the top of the window and select "Restore." Problem solved.

Save As dialog box opens random location

I have been trying to save some attachments from my emails in entourage, but whenever it brings up the save dialog box, the default finder location is completely random. It is not based on my last known location, nor a default 'Desktop' or 'Documents' folder. It will change every time. I can save 3 emails in a row and they will all open in different locations....
oddd....
any thoughts?

I too am having the same issue, in every program. Whenever I have a save dialog box open, it picks a completely random location to save it to, which becomes quite old when you have to save multiple files back-to-back in the same location. Anyone have any ideas?

All Office 2010 Applications Slow To Produce "OPEN" or "SAVE AS" Dialog Box ONLY When PC Connected To Network

Hello all,
Frustrating problem: ALL Office 2010 apps require a 45 second delay to produce an "open" or "save as" dialog box when the computer is connected to a LAN (wireless or wired, domain or workgroup). When the computer is NOT connected to a LAN (wireless or wired,
domain or workgroup), then Office 2010 "open" or "save as" dialog boxes open normally (and quickly).
I suspect a network search/survey function internal to MS Office is at fault.
This is NOT the infamous mapped network drive problem associated with Office 2007/2010. There are no mapped drives (nor have there ever been) on the PC, although there might exist a related solution. Additionally, there is no 45 second delay when opening
a file by double-clicking on the file itself which will launch the application.
Other information:
1. PC runs Windows 7 Pro 32 bit - PC is a relatively new Lenovo T400 laptop, all updates from Lenovo and MS installed, running clean and nicely otherwise, no spyware, no viruses, no previous software or hardware issues requiring assistance. Event log is
clean.
2. Absolutely fresh installation of Office 2010 Pro Plus (MS Action Pack)
3. Running Office apps in safe mode does not alter problem behavior (ie, "windword.exe /a" or use CTRL key and double-click to launch app)
4. Running Windows 7 in safe mode with networking and then subsequently testing Office apps is not possible: "license not able to validate" issue. This is a known problem and is not related to the slow dialog box response behavior.
5. A desktop PC with the same MS Office 2010 installation, same volume license key, on the same network does NOT produce this problem.
6. Full uninstall, reboot, and re-install of Office 2010 does not alleviate problem
7. Disabling ALL startup items and services (including, of course, ALL Lenovo management software) does not alleviate problem
8. SMB v2 bug is not the problem: ie, disabling mrxsmb20 service does not alleviate symptoms.
9. I have isolated "Client for Microsoft Networks", "QOS Packet Scheduler", "Link-Layer Topology Discovery Mapper I/O Driver" (and Responder), and "Printer and File Sharing for MS Networks" in the network adapter properties are NOT causing the issue.
10. Using Sysinternals Registry Monitor, I was able to determine that Office apps evaluate certain properties of your Internet Explorer settings before attempting to launch the "open" or "save as" dialog box. Altering the way intranets are detected, for
example, does not alleviate the symptoms.
11. Turning off Antivirus software (Avira Personal) does not alleviate the issue.
This issue is causing a huge loss of work efficiency. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Rick

Hello Rick,
Through all the research I have done so far and talking with a few other coworkers what the common issues that cause this are is:
1. Antivirus: disabling the antivirus is not good enough it needs to be totaly uninstalled and retested.
2. startup programs: these need to be disabled through either Safe mode with networking or the start menu or MSconfig.
3. Office addins: Disable all of them see if that helps. Then turn them back on one by one to see which addin is causing the issue.
To disable addins: 1. open up regedit and navigate to this key. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Addins and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Word\Addins
Then change the LoadBehavior to 0 this will disable the addin. 3 lets it run. Since this affected only one user HKEY_LOCAL_USER might be your best bet but don't rule out the other location.
To verify there are no addins running go to the File tab>options>Add-Ins make sure nothing is listed under Active Application Add-ins.
I hope this helps
Thanks,

'Save as Type' box in 'Save As' dialog box

I recently downloaded 'Rocket PDF' and now if I try to save any PDF. document, the only choices in the 'save as type' box are 'Rocket PDF' or 'All files'. No more 'Adobe Reader PDF. appears as a choice. I uninstalled 'Rocket PDF' and in the 'Default changes' I put 'Adobe Reader as the default to open 'PDF.'. Still, the only choices on the 'save as type ' are 'Rocket PDF' or 'All files'! How do I get Adobe Reader PDF' back as a choice in the 'save as type' box and delete 'Rocket PDF' as a choice?

Sorry I wasn't clear! When I try to save a 'PDF' file the "save as" dialog box opens. At the bottom the 'file name'is listed and below that it says, "save as type". You then pick what file type you want, like Adobe Reader for PDF. It used to say Adobe Reader as one of the choices but when I downloaded "Rocket PDF" it only says "Rocket PDF or "all files" as the only choices to save the document, no more Adobe Reader as a choice. I have deleted Rocket PDF and under 'default programs (Start button) I have set the "Pdf. files to open with Adobe Reader. Rocket PDF is still listed or' all files', nothing else! How can I get Adobe Reader as a choice back in the 'save as type' box?
Thanks for any help.

Strange folders appearing in "Save As" dialog box

Hello
*Description of Problem or Question:
If you open a Web Intelligence report that has been sent to you from your Inbox I have noticed there are "extra" folders I wouldn't expect to see. As an administrator and can see the following extra "strange" folders:
Categories
Inboxes
Internal Storage Folder
Personal Categories
Root Folder
Temporary Storage
User Folders
(Please see attached screenshot)
As a non-admin user I can only see the extra folder "Root Folder".
This does look odd for a non-admin user as they see the same folder structure twice. E.g:
Public Folders
>>Finance Reports
>>Operations Reports
>>Root Folder
>>>>>Finance Reports
>>>>>Operations Reports
Any ideas on how to hide these folders from the "save as" dialog box?
It does only seems to happen if a report is opened from a users Inbox.

How can I get the "Open" and "Save As" dialog boxes to open at larger than their default size?

How can I get the "Open" and "Save As" dialog boxes to open at larger than their default size? I would like them to open at the size they were previously resized like they used to in previous operating systems. They currently open at a very small size and the first colum is only a few letters wide necessitating a resize practically every time one wants to use it. Any help would be appreciated.

On a MBP with Mavericks how do I get the Save As dialog box to open at the same size and place at which it was last closed and used to happen before Mavericks?

Before I upgraded my MBP to Mavericks, the Save As dialog box would reopen at the same size and position as it was when last closed. Now with Mavericks it always opens in the same position at a very small size. Is there a way to make it reopen at the last place and size at which it was closed?

I have resolved the issues presented without having to find and uninstall the Macromedia Flash Player 8.0 in order to get "Adobe Flash Player 10" playback of .swf files on my computer. When I begin this task, I expected to download an "Adobe Flash Player 10" as a player program download instead of the Internet Explorer and Firefox plugin that it appears to be.
This is what I did and what I believe I have:
1. I setup Internet Explorer 6 as my default browser and then used the following site to download Adobe Flash Player 10
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/
2. As I had done before (and also suggested in another thread here), I went to Tools/Manage Add Ons and found Shockwave Flash Object, highlighted it, and clicked on Update Active X. Next, what I did not do before, I restarted the computer immediately after that.
3. Next, I set Mozilla Firefox as my default browser and then used the above site to download Adobe Flash Player 10 again.
4. With Firefox, the critical step included Firefox Tools/Options/Content with File Types (Configure how Firefox handles certain types of files) and the Manage Tab there. SWF Shockware Flash Object/Change Action/and dotting "use this plugin" - Shockwave Flash, followed by a computer restart got the job done.
Now, if I want playback of a .swf file, I can
a. Open With Internet Explorer (assumed with the Adobe Flash 10 "plugin")
b. Open With Mozilla Firefox (assumed with the Adobe Flash 10 "plugin")
c. Open With Macromedia Flash Player 8.0
I am satisfied with those results for my use. Any additional comments on the player vs plugin aspect of the matter would be interesting and helpful.

Save as / open dialog boxes crashing

Hi, whenever I choose save as, or open and get the finder box window, if I click the drop down tab to show recent items it crashes whatever program I'm using at the time. I'm on an intel 2 x 2.66 with OS X.4.10

Same issue here. Mine happens only when Saving As from within the confines of a web browser (Firefox or Safari). Can not select the drop-down menu of recent Save locations without getting the eternal spinning beach ball, and ultimately having to do a forced Shutdown and reboot. In addition, can't seem to double-click folders any more (in the same Save As dialog box) to burrow down to the ultimate Save location. Must select the folder then use Command/O, select folder, Command/O, etc. until I get to where I want to save the file to. Another side effect of this behavior seems to be that it (the browser? the O/S?) doesn't remember the last Saved-To location upon doing the next Save As. It jumps up a level, or sometimes two, and I then have to burrow back down manually using the select folder, Command/O, select folder, Command/O sequence again.
Not positive, but I don't think this problem manifested as soon as I upgraded to 10.4.10. But is has started "since" that time. Firefox has been updated during that time, but not Safari. I'm thinkin': something corrupt in the O/S? Repair permissions had no effect.
Any thoughts are appreciated.

Move, delete, or rename files in Open or Save As Dialog box

I want to be able to rename, delete or move a file when I am in an Open or Save As dialog box. Sometimes when I am opening a file or saving a new file I spot an existing file that needs to be renamed, moved to a folder or even deleted. In Windows I would just take care of that file and then keep going with what I was doing in the first place. This doesn't seem to work in Mac OSX. I have to stop, go to a Finder window, go to the location, do what I want to do to the file and then go back to the Open or Save As dialog box. There's go to be a better way in the "world's most advanced operating system." Ideas?

Blank page shown instead of Open/Save As dialog box-CSV file download in IE

I am migrating an application hosted earlier on Oracle 9iAS (9.0.3.1 BP1) to OracleAS 10g (10.1.3) with Struts 1.2.9. While the below JSP code worked for the earlier s/w stack when accessed using IE 5.5 SP2 or above, a blank page is displayed with the new s/w stack. What I mean by "worked earlier" is this. A "Open/Save As" dialog box would appear. Trying to "Open" would open a new IE window launching MS Excel and displaying correct data. Trying to "Save As" would display correct filename and extension in the dialog box.
<%@page autoFlush="false" contentType="application/x-filler"%>
<%
try
String fileName = "ABC.CSV";
String strData = "A,B,C";
response.setContentLength(strData.length());
response.setHeader("Content-Type","application/octet-stream");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","inline;filename="+fileName);
ServletOutputStream ouputStream = response.getOutputStream();
ouputStream.write(strData.getBytes(), 0, strData.getBytes().length);
ouputStream.flush();
ouputStream.close();
catch(Exception e)
%>
I tried some changes listed below:
1. Deliberately introduced compilation errors in the JSP code.
2. Changed contentType="application/x-filler" to various MIME types like application/x-download, application/vnd.ms-excel, removing it altogether.
3. Commented out response.setHeader("Content-Type","application/octet-stream") and also tried other MIME types related to CSV/Excel.
4. Changed Content-Disposition from inline to attachment.
Each of the above resulted in an unacceptable behaviour compared with the earlier state:
1. Blank page shown as if nothing was happening even in case of deliberate incorrect JSP syntax.
2. Dialog box did show up with some combinations. But on trying to "Open" or "Save As", the dialog box shows up a second time. Then while trying to "Open", the contents get opened either inline or in MS Excel but with some additional garbage data like source file name.jsp etc. While trying to "Save As" the file name and extension take on the pattern <URL_Pattern>.htm where URL_Pattern would be "DOWNLOAD_ACTION.do".
Some other information:
1. This code works when accessed from desktop local container (Win 2000) but not when deployed on Unix env (HP-UX B.11.11.0109).
2. Latest patchsets are installed for IE.
3. The existing application is designed to work for ONLY IE 5.5 SP2 or above, so I haven't tried with other browsers. I have tried both IE 5.5 SP2 and 6.0 SP1.
Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Thanks a lot for your valuable time..

I have made it to work with the below changes:
1. Changed the URL pattern for <filter-mapping> for *.jsp to /*.jsp
2. Added <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher> and <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>
3. Everything else (code-wise) is as before.
Because of these changes, the filter, wherein some headers are being added to the response, is being invoked appropriately now.
Thanks for you time and suggestion though...

CS5.5/OS X 10.8: Open/Save As dialog box resizing

Each time I Open or Save As, the windows default to about 720 x 540, which is annoyingly small on a 1920 x 1200 screen.
In each programs' .plist file, located at /Users/(username)/Library/Preferences/, there are two keys:
NSNavPanelExpandedSizeForOpenMode:GetFile
NSNavPanelExpandedSizeForSaveMode:PutFile
After trying to resize the windows, I QuickLook these .plist files. The values for these key-value pairs are
1) sporadically updated and subsequently ignored on program close/relaunch, or
2) not updated at all.
Have noticed this problem in DW, FW, AI, and FL. PS seems to be the only exception.
Adobe products are the only programs on my Mac that exhibit this problem.
Mac OS is up to date. (10.8.3 as of date of post)
All aforementioned Adobe programs are up to date according to the Adobe Application Manager.
The preferences folder and the specific .plist files contained therein are read/writeable by me, the administrator.
Rebuilding the .plist file does not help.
Rebuilding the Saved Application State folder for the program does not help.
Other miscellaneous things (resizing Finder columns, showing/rehiding hidden files, maximizing/restoring the window) don't help either.
Can any community members who have experienced this problem suggest any fixes?

I think this is an OS X 10.8 thing rather than a CS5.5/OS X 10.8 thing – but I would really like a fix for this too, nnotnorth

Save Open dialog box opening very slow
