[SOLVED] Blank windows while they should have content.

Hi,
I have a major issue, I experience it all the time with BlueJ (which is a Java learning environment I have to use for the university)
I don't think it's application related since I also encouterd it in Geany (which I can't say if still occurs since I stopped using).
As I said, I should be getting content in the window but instead I get a blank window (example Image added).
I'm using gnome with Compiz and emerald.
I will be more than glad to get your help.
Thank you.

Well, it looks as though there are compiz problems tied to Swing apps AND nVidia Drivers, so you should consider googling solutions for both. Try these links for now:

Thanks, the second solution (link) fixed it (though I only tested it for a minute).
For now, I flag the topic as SOLVED, with hope I won't run in to it again.
Thanks.

  • Since I downloaded Apple's latest operating system, whenever I try to open Illustrator I get a message that I need to install legacy Java SE6 runtime and to click "more info" to do this. When I click "more info" I get a blank window. What should I do

    Since I downloaded Apple's latest operating system, whenever I try to open Illustrator I get a message that I need to install legacy Java SE6 runtime and to click "more info" to do this. When I click "more info" I get a blank window. What should I do

    Hi,
    I had the same problem after upgrading to Yosemite. Illustrator CS6 wouldn't open. I got a message saying I should 'install legacy Java SE6 runtime'.
    The link didn't work - it lead to a blank page.
    So I downloaded Java8 (latest version) from Oracle but didn't install it. Something told me this was not the right way to go (the problem was with Java SE6, not 8). I then called Apple (in the Netherlands, were I live) for help. I got none. The best they could do was blaming Adobe for the problem or me, for not having the latest Adobe CC app. Rubbish.
    And then, magic. I tried to open Illustrator again, got the pop up message but this time the link worked. It took me to an official Apple page, with a link to download Java for OS X 2014-001. The problem is now solved.
    If curious, this is the explanation Apple gives for the problem:
    'Java for OS X 2014-001 includes installation improvements, and supersedes all previous versions of Java for OS X. This package installs the same version of Java 6 included in Java for OS X 2013-005. On systems that have not already installed Java for OS X 2012-006 or later, this update disables the Java SE 6 applet plug-in. To use applets on a web page, click on the region labeled 'missing plug-in' to download the latest version of the Java applet plug-in from Oracle.'

  • Why are my deleted emails saving in my 'pictures' as a PDF adobe when they should have been in my deleted email file not saved in my pictures??????

    Why are my deleted emails saving in 'my pictures' as a PDF adobe when they should have been in my deleted email file not saved
    in my pictures??????

    I deleted emails from my windows emails and when I went into my pictures there was all my recently deleted items as pdf adobe files and I cannot right click and delete. But why would my deleted emails be going to my pictures in the first place. So i think it must be in how the adobe program is set up and need to know how to change the settings so my deleted emails are not sent to my pictures.I do not know what other details you would require?

  • How do I get DVD for the Windows 7 that should have come with my new laptop please

    This is my first message here so please bear with me. I have just bought a new Lenovo Essentials B570 laptop which has come with Windows 7 pre-installed. Previously I used to buy Dell laptops which used to come with OS Re-installation DVDs which check to see if they are being installed on the hardware it was bought for but would allow us to install the OS on a new hard disk if the original one crashed. Now Lenovo seems to be using a very complicated method to allow buyer's to re-install the OS - they are expected to retain the same hard disk - but what happens is the hard disk crashes and one wants to install the OS along with all the drivers? The Dell DVD allows me to do precisely that. Can I create a similar disk to install the OS on a new hard disk as and when I want/need it please? I have created two sets of DVDs using the OKR software - one set using the 'system presently on disk' and another set for 'resetting to factory defaults' - but from what I have read on these forums these OKR disks would not work if I put a completely new hard disk. So at least if I can get hold of the correct version of the Windows DVD - as I have paid for the license I would be very grateful. Thank you.
    Solved!

    Thanks for the quick reply.
    But to me this looks more like a OKR solution and I have already created these Factory Reset discs.
    Will these discs work if I have installed a completely new hard disk in the dive? Because that is what I would need to do in the rare event that I have a complete hard disk failure.
    What is confusing is the fact that on these forums, I find many messages which indicate that the OKR solution would work only with the original hard disk and it would not work with a completely new hard disk and also that the OKR itself would not be able to change partitions on the hard disk - even when it is the original hard disk. To me this means any disks that are created using the OKR would be useless when the original hard disk has undergone severe change or a completely new hard disk is in its place. Correct me if I am wrong. (In fact I am hoping that I am wrong in that assumption.)
    My laptop has a 750GB hard disk and it has Windows 7, 64bit. I actually want to make this into a dual boot machine with KUbuntu. What is stopping me attempting that is the fact that C drive has bigger partition and D drive is a smaller partition (too small in fact - 30GB these days is practically nothing) and I learn that any modifications I do to drive partitions would render the OKR non functional.
    I can live without this simplistic one key rescue operation if I have recourse to the Windows 7 DVD and that is why I asked the question.

  • Firefox opens multiple blank windows while starting

    Whenever I start Firefox, it loads multiple blank windows. It happens everytime I load it, though once in a while, it loads correctly i.e. loads the tabs which were open when I had closed it. Other than that, only plain windows which I have to close manually and then restore the last set of tabs from History>>Recently Closed Windows options. I have already set the following options to true to make the restore closed tabs feature working [as was suggested here in the forums]:
    browser.tabs.warnOnClose
    browser.warnOnQuit
    browser.warnOnRestart
    browser.showQuitWarning
    Any fix for it?

    If you use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

  • Why is the glass get scratched so easily..  they should have told us before we buy that the glass would scratch easily.. and the back of it.. the black one that is.

    apples needs to be more specific.. and alot of people had been complainning about the scratch apple should do somethign about it..

    Not sure what you mean by "scratch easily".  I've never had an issue with scratching the screen on any smart phone I've owned.
    Everyone that I've ever met with a cosmetically damaged phone was extremely rough on their phones and realistically should have kept them in a case.
    Maybe you're just rougher on devices than most.  Have you considered a case or at least a screen protector?

  • Invoice picks taxes while they should be exempt - how to control ?

    I am creating a PO in SRM with one line item as Service and the rest with materials (materials were set up as services in SRM).
    This goes and reflects in ECC5 with the first item from SRM created as a line item 0001 in ECC5 and the rest of the SRM items are added as services to this line item 0001.
    Then:
    Till the time of GR, the materials are validated against an external tax system and the tax exemption is carried out.
    However as soon as the IR takes place, the materials are being taxed again. (At this point the external tax system does not get triggered).
    How to control this tax calculation?

  • Blank window when accessing PDF via IE URL

    IE version 6.02  SP3
    Adobe Reader 9.1.3  some machines on 9.1.2
    Some folks are experiencing a blank window when they click on a PDF URL.  Some of the URLs point to a virtual directory and some point directly to a file share.  Some of the PDF files have a space in their name and some do not.  There are no error messages appearing.  Some folks have not seen this issue, others get it most of the time.  Some times a refresh will work other times it won't.
    Same results whether going through the proxy or to each web server directly.  Fiddler shows a HTTP 401 which doesn't make sense since the files are open to everyone.  Sometimes I get an IE error message saying it needs to close.
    File size is not an issue.  When I uncheck 'Display PDF in browser' the blank window issue goes away.  But before I settle on that as the solution does anyone have any other suggestions.

  • My daughter accidentally restored her ipod4 to factory settings so I restored from the last iCloud backup. Her photos were all on camera roll so I believe should have been backed up, but none of them have been restored. Why?

    My daughter accidentally reset her ipod4 to factory settings so I restored from the last iCloud backup. All her photos were on camera roll so I believe they should have automatically been backed up, but none have been restored. Why?

    When she plugged in the ipod last night it backed up again so that now shows as the latest backup. No previous backups are listed so I do not seem to have the option to rerun the old one. She had many pictures on the camera roll taken from well before July. I can only presume that the backup in July must have been incomplete - but then I didn't think it was supposed to list as an option to restore from. Luckily many of the photos had been backed up on the pc but I am very frustrated as to why the icloud backup didn't protect them. Thank you for your advice though, I appreciate it.

  • Why won't my tabs & windows reopen as they should, even tho I have it set for them to do so?

    Why won't my tabs & windows reopen as they should, even tho I have it set for them to do so?
    "Firefox can be configured to restore all windows and tabs that were open when the application is closed or terminated unexpectedly. This article describes the circumstances under which your session is restored and how you can configure it."
    I have it set up, in "Tools", "Options", etc., for my windows and tabs to reopen & be restored to the webpages that they were previously at before I, for one reason or another, restarted my computer! But, after I restart my computer and the Firefox browser, it always goes to my homepage; the windows & tabs NEVER restart as they should!
    It wasn't always like this. It has only been within the last few weeks that this has become a constant and consistent problem. I assume that a Firefox update somehow disabled something & that's why it isn't working properly but, whatever...
    How do I fix this so that my windows & tabs reopen as they should!?

    Have you checked to make sure that under>> Options >> General >> That the startup behavior is appropriately? I had the same problem after upgrading and setting my homepage. It should be set to "show my windows and tabs from last time".
    Just re-read your post. sounds like you've tried this already.
