Single click open - where?

I have a very lame question. I changed a setting that caused SQL Developer 1.5 to no longer open an object (such as a procedure) when I select it in the connections window. I have literally searched for hours but can't find that setting again. Please tell me where to find that setting.

I believe what you're looking for is under
Tools --> Preferences --> Database --> Advanced Parameters: Open Object on Single Click.

Tool Palette Single Click Opening Fly-out Problem

I'm using Photoshop CS3. A few months ago I started noticing that when I single click on a tool in the tool palette that if there's a flyout available it opens. (No changes to my system preferences, or mouse were made prior to this starting to happen and I'm on a Mac Pro OS X version 10.4.11). The behaviour is as if I'm clicking and holding the cursor to open the fly-out, but I'm only single clicking.
If I do a super fast, sort of "tap" click then the behavior is normal and the fly-outs don't open, but it's hard to get the click just right and an annoyance to have to work that way.
I changed my double click speed from fast all the way down to slow but the problem persists.
This doesn't make PS CS unusable, but it brings production down because to use a tool I have to click twice (first click opens the fly-out, and then I have to click again to select the tool I want from the tools available on the fly-out). I don't have this problem in any other Adobe CS3 application, only Photoshop so my mouse doesn't seem to be the problem.
Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks!

This problem started again, but this time removing the Photoshop preferences file and/or opening PS while holding down cmd-option-shift to delete and reset preferences doesn't work. I installed Snow Leopard last week, but things were working fine after the install until today. I reinstalled Photoshop CS3 hoping that would do it, but no go. Any other suggestions? Thanks!

Single click opens application

all of a sudden when i single click on a file or application it automatically launches that file or application. before i would have to double click. not sure what i did. i have a logitech nano mouse.

I've recently started having the same problem. I've slowed all the settings I can, to no avail. I have the additional problem of pages suddenly going to "minimize" when I touch the title bar. This morning, I noticed the screen flicker followed by a "beep" for no apparent reason. Could it be a hardware problem? My eMac is almost five years old and I've had no problems with it until now.

On all my other apps and browsers, I have my system set up to open things with a doubleclick. In Firefox, however, a single click opens things, and it's very annoying since I wind up with duplicate pages -- where can I change this option to double-click?

I think my question explains my issue, but I particularly have this issue on www.pogo.com when I try to open a game room. The system tells me someone else with my user name is trying to enter the room at the same time, so it boots us both out. I have contacted Pogo, and they tell me it's a Firefox issue. There must be an option somewhere, like a OS has, to pick between single and double clicks to open an app, but I can't find it in Firefox. My mouse is set in XP for double-click.

Hi Roger
Thank you for your reply.
My original feed is: http://casa-egypt.com/feed/
However, because I modified the feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/imananddinasbroadcast and nothing changed, I redirected it to another feed and then I deleted this feed.
Is there any way to change the feed in itunes? The only feed I have now is http://feeds.feedburner.com/CasaEgyptStation
I tried to restore the feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/imananddinasbroadcast but feedburner refused.
I know that I missed things up but I still have hope in working things out.
Thanks is advance.

Single click opens mail?

When I am using Mail and I click on a new mail item one time (intending to view it in the lower half of the panel) it opens in a new window? I do not want it to open the message in a new window unless I double click it. Which is what I would ordinarily expect and is how it works on my other mac book pro. I have not been able to figure out how to correct this. I have looked at the mouse settings (I am not using a mouse so none available) and trackpad settings (none seem to apply) as well as keyboard settings (again, none seem to apply) to no avail. Perhaps the clicker (selection bar? I am not sure what it is called) is broken? Thank you for any assistance you can provide. MACarmel!

Actually it is not working normally.
I should have reworded my response to clarify that I meant "if the trackpad 'clicker' isn't physically or electrically broken in some way ..."
Interestingly, if you have your finger on the trackpad when you click it does not open another instance?
That is interesting, but I don't know how to explain it. Given the right settings, holding two fingers on the trackpad while clicking would cause a "secondary click", but I'm not sure what one finger is supposed to cause.
Do you have any other suggestions, thoughts on the topic?
Sorry, but no.

Dashboard froze. Can't single-click open anymore

My dashboard widgets froze -- open on screen. I had to close each widget. Now I now longer have one-click pop up of my selected widgets. I get a beep when I click the dashboard icon. I have to click the plus sign and open individual widgets. What happened? Can I get my simple dashboard back?

Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, move this file to the Desktop...

PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.

Multiply folders - single click open disable ?

when opening multiply folders (folders in folders) as you double click on them fast, after a few clicks (two folders i think) it starts to open folders with one click (not two). can this be disabled ?
can all folders be opened with two clicks only no matter what ?

You're welcome.
I use the Logitech Control Center software that shipped with the mouse, though I actually downloaded the latest version from the Logitech Web site — vs. using the version that came on the included CD — to be sure I had the latest version.
The version I am using is for PPC. I don't believe they've released a Universal Binary yet for Intel-based Macs: I did not see anything to this effect on their Web site when I checked today. You could contact Logitech about the availability of a Universal Binary. I suspect one may be forthcoming: many vendors have to address the move to Intel-based Macs.
You wrote: "Can you configure the mouse-wheel click to open in a new tab in Safari?"Yes. Any button can be configured for a custom keystroke. Since the keyboard combination to open a new tab in Safari is Command-T (assuming tabbed browsing is enabled), one could configure any button on the mouse to perform Command-T when pressed.
Good luck!

Single-click to open in finder

Is there an option to have single-click open files and folders in the Finder?

Photoshop CS3 tool palette submenus appearing on single click (isntead of click + hold), how can I disable this?

Sometimes I happen to click on tools instead of using the hotkey, if it feels convenient or whatever. However, on my work machine I'm having a problem where a single click opens up the submenu for whatever tool I clicked on. For example, I click on rectangular marquee, and instead of just selecting rectangular marquee as the active tool it also presents me with the little submenu to choose from the alternative marquee tools. In all the years I have worked with Photoshop, this is the first time I have experienced this--usually I have to click+hold to get the submenu. Click+hold is the behavior I want out of this feature, but I can't find any setting in the preferences to enable/disable this weird mode?

The timing is directy related to the 'Double-click Speed' setting for your mouse. If it is 'Slow', then you have to hold longer; if it set to 'Fast' then you always get the pull down menu. There currently is no way to change this behavior directly is Ps (ie. pref. toggle to disable).
I have seen people complaining that they need to double click to just select the main tool. In other words, that might be a workaround if you want to keep the mouse double click speed on the fast side (single click gives pull down, double click selects main tool).
I'll enter a feature request to add a preference that toggles click+hold On/Off.

steve

For some reason, I now have to double-click on my bookmarks on my task bar. How do I change it back to a single click?

In my bookmarks task bar, I used to have to just single click on the bookmark and it would open to that site. Now it seems that I have to double-click to get the bookmark to open. I want it back like it was - single click opens site. Please tell me how to fix this.
Thank you!

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...
[[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]

I have to "single-click" twice (not double click) to open an item in the Dock.

Can someone confirm if this is Expected Behavior?? (OS = Mavericks)
If you have Assigned an application in your Dock to a Desktop & Display in the application's Dock >> Options (ex: Assigned To: Desktop on Display 2):
Click once on the application icon in the Dock, the application's Menu will populate on the top of your screen, but not the application itself (yet), click the application icon a second time, the application will now show too.
Docked Applications that do not have an Assigned To: Desktop & Display in the Dock options, you only need to single click.
FYI:
For odd Dock behaviors otherwise try this:
You may have a corrupted Dock preferences file.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist (plist = preference list file)
Click Go then move the com.apple.dock.plist file to the Trash, or move it to your Desktop.
Restart your Mac and see if the behavior is resolved. You will have re-configure your Dock settings.

From where are you launching Mail? The only place, unless I've missed or forgotten something, you can launch an application with a single click is from the Dock. Is this what you're doing, or are you attempting to launch Mail from the Applications folder?

I used to single click to open mail & now I have to double click. I have not changed preferences. Any suggestions?

I have always single clicked to open mail. Now I have to double click. I have not touched preferences or made changes. Any suggestions?

Single click to open apps

Hi.
Is there a way I can set my applications to open with a single click like they do when an icon is clicked in system preferences and like they do from when you launch them from the dock? Thanks.

If you are thinking of a way to have all your applications handy but not clutter up your dock, you can drag the whole applications folder into the left hand side of the dock (where the trash can is). Use the source folder in your root directory, not the side panel. This inserts an alias - all you have to do is control click it and you have a list of all the items inside there that will open with a single click
Hope that helps

How can i change the tab bar from opening a new tab when single clicked to open one only when double clicked?

Out of habbit, i double click the tab bar and it opens 1 tab. however in the new beta, it opens 2.
Is there anyway to change this so single clicks dont open new tabs on the tab bar?

I don't have multiple tab bars and haven't installed anything to try and get them.
I re-read what I wrote earlier and realised it's not worded clearly when I said: If I have more than a single tab bar of tabs open
I meant: When I have so many tabs open that they won't all fit into the tab bar at once

Why am I sometimes sending duplicate emails and why when I sometimes single click an incoming messages to view it in the viewer window why does it open?

My computer got very touchy a few days ago as in the finder or in mail I would single click to select an item and it would open (rather than alloiwng me to just select it) or I would command select to select several items and they would open before I finished.
I did a complete reinstall and finder part of the problem is gone, but it still exists in Mail. Also before the reinstall just about every email I sent would duplicate-- not it only happens occaisionally.
Anyone got any ideas-- thank you

Hi, ybg, and welcome to the Community,
Your detailed report (thank you) indicates to me your account has been compromised a second time. Change your Skype account password immediately if you have not already done so, as well as that of any saved payment method on file. I would also run a maintenance cycle on your computer/laptop, ensuring all patches and updates are installed. Also run your preferred anti-virus/malware/spyware suite using the most recent virus signature files available.
You are right to contact Skype Customer Service to report this incident. I have read that people experience problems reaching them, however please do continue to do so, choosing a different path through the various steps than you used the first time; try also using a different web browser. I have also read that the instant message chat sessions with Customer Service agents appear as a pop-up dialogue box, which needs to be enabled or the connection to the agent will not process.
Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
As a general proactive precaution, I would recommend reviewing how you access the internet, particularly seeking any vulnerabilities or patterns common to the first incident and this one.
Regards,
Elaine
