[SOLVED] GTK2 apps have wrong theme when launched from desktop entry.

So I'm setting up KDE and I want to use the QtCurve theme for all applications where possible. I have set (via kde-gtk-config) the GTK2 theme to QtCurve and it half works. GTK2 applications are using the QtCurve theme when they are launched via a command, but they are using what appears to be an ugly version of the Oxygen theme when launched from a .desktop file. I previously installed gtk-qt-engine from the AUR, but have since removed it along with it's files, and as I was using the Oxygen theme at the time, this appears to be what has caused the issue. Does anyone know what is causing this and how to fix it?
EDIT: Solved by removing ~/.themes folder (obviously only remove the KDE-QT theme if there are other themes in the folder).

Thanks, but lxappearance made things rather worse.
A friend of mine had told me to put "gtk-toolbar-style=GTK_TOOLBAR_ICONS" into settings.ini and my problem is solved now.

IPad2 apps have started crashing when launched

Several of my iPad2 apps have started crashing when launched: flipboard and neflix, to be exact. I have turned off the apps, restarted and done a reset, but that has not helped.

If it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
If it's happening on all apps then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e.not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

No color toolbar icons from standard launch, ok when launched from another app.

When launched from another app like google earth the toolbar icons are in color.
When launched normally the icons have no colors.
Currently Thunderbird 24.6.0

another experiment.
When you have the colour icons, Select Help menu > about (what version is this) when you have the black do the same and see if it is different versions. (pressing F10 will make them menu bar visible if it is not.)
Thunderbirds icons changes from living colour to black and white quite a few versions ago.
Reasons for color are;
* An old version
* An add-on by way of a Theme
* The running of Thunderbird in XP compatibility mode in Windows

How To Set Third Party Media App Is Default When Launched From Default File Manager

I use rock media player, which can encode & decode The Video and audio files i use, unlike the phone i have, i don't receive the option to set the app as the default media player. I would really like to be able to use this app on the thrive as it is some much a better media player than the thrives defaulty app. Rock player is the name of the app, who do set it as the default player when launched from the default file manager.

From my experience playing with the Thrive, when you attempt to watch a media file, it will open a menu asking you what application to use. From that popup, you can set a default.

I can't email a photo directly from iPhoto. First, I only have two "themes" to choose from instead of 8, and when prompted to fill in the "to" and "from", the "from" box has "MobileMe" already in it, and I can't get rid of or change it. I have OSXLion

Developer Server 6.0 hanging when launched from Netscape 4.6

Hi, simple question to ask about OAS and Developer Server.
My Developer Server 6.0 hanging when launched from Netscape 4.61,
I am currently running...
Pentium PII 200Mz running NT sp5
Forms Server version 6.0.5.31.0 (Patch 3 applied)
OAS version 4.0.7.1.0 (Patch applied)
Jinitiator 1.1.7.18
Netscape 4.61 browser
I have all the latest versions of everything that is available,
I have followed the instructions.
I successfully connect to the OAS admin utility and have setup
all the virtual to physical directory mappings under the default
listener www. I successfully start all website OAS services.
I have Forms server successfully started up as a process
listening on port 9000.
I have two statics html files created:
a) with Jinititator 1.1.7.18
The very first time I connected to this static html file it
installed Jinitiator as expected. The Forms server splashscreen
then appears.
Jinitiator then starts up successfully, no errors appear in the
Java console. This has proved I am talking to the listener and
my virtual directory mappings are working.
At this point there is a lot of disk activity and then all
stops, the splashscreen remains and appears in the discussion
area:
FRM-9999 cannot access "koala.ilaco.gov.bo:9000" and
a series of java exceptions
I am pointing to the correct java directories (I think)
b) with out Jinitiator
When I try to call using URL with Netscape 4.61 I get a
message on the status bar saying...
Applet oracle.forms.engine.Main class oracle/forms/engine/Main
got a security violation: Method verification error
Can you help ?
If you know the answer, please let me know as soon as
posible.
Thanks for the answer....
Rgds,
Polo

I respond your email, with my actual server configuration my
problem is now: I get the splash screen and after form is hanged.
My server configuration is:
Compaq PC, with Pentium II, the software is:
- Windows NT, with Service Pack 5
- Oracle Application Server, v.4.0.7.1.0 Enterprice Edition,
pathset 1
- Developer Server v.6 patchset 3
- My browser in this machine is Netscape 4.61
- Jinitiator 1.1.7.18 is also used.
My developer server is installed and running on the same machine
that OAS is. I am using other browser in other machine (IE5)
and trying to connect to the OAS on the first machine.
My problems begin when I launch ifsrv60.exe. I copied
ifwcm60.dll v.6.0.5.0.2, and other files required in the %
ORACLE_HOME%\bin
I forced listener Developer Server Port (
c:\orant\bin\ifsrv60.exe -listen port=9000 )
Now, I can connect with this process, with the following line:
telnet koala 9000. The listener is working now.
I tried to work with my (NonCartride-static html)forms60 form on
WEB without Jinitiator, but I couldn't.
With Netscape, in the status bar: Applet
oracle.forms.engine.Main can3t stop ERROR
With IE5, I get the splash screen and after the forms is hanged.
If I use Jinitiator:
With Netscape, in the status bar: Oracle Jinitiato: applet
oracle.forms.engine.Main inited then form is hanged.
With IE5, I get the splash screen and after that, the screen
freezes and looks like the form is hanged.
Any further suggestions on this?

Using fonts when launching from JNLP

Hello,
I followed the directions in this link http://fxexperience.com/2010/05/how-to-embed-fonts/ and was able to add and use fonts in my javafx program when launched from Netbeans. But when I try to launch from JNLP, the fonts do not show up (the text shows up as Arial).
Is there something special I need to do to access the fonts in the jar and utilize them?
As the link directed I created a fonts folder in my src folder where I store all the .ttf file, and created a fonts.mf file in META-INF where I map a name to the font file. Works fine when launching from netbeans.
thanks in advance for your help
jose

I've found the problem! It's the timestamp for the JNLP file. But unfortunately I can't figure out the workaround as yet.
To explain the problem it would be best to start with my application's installation procedure:
The applcation is installed by way of CD (using javaws -import) as downloading an 8mb jar file over dialup is unwieldy. Subsequent updates are retrieved from the server. Jardiffs are sent back to the webstart client so updates over dialup becomes manageble.
The application jar file in the CD is version 1.0. Let's say the server is now at version 1.3 with the timestamp 2005-10-01 00:00:00.
The user installs the application using the CD today which gives his JNLP file the timestamp of 2005-10-03 00:00:00.
When the application is started, it calls the server to check for updates. Although the JNLP file returned from the server specifically states that the current version is at version 1.3 Java Web Start insists on using the timestamp to perform the comparison first.
Since the timestamp of the JNLP file in the user's pc is dated later than the JNLP file in the server, Java Web Start ignores the version checking and assumes that the application in the server is the latest and greatest.
Has anyone encountered a similiar situation? The only solution I can think of is to hack the JNLPDownloadServlet to return a date that's way in the future so that Java Web Start picks up the changes... sigh.
Is it possible to disable the timestamp checking for the JNLP files? As again, help is mucho appreciated and there are 10 duke dollars at stake too :)

Browser size when launched from Forms Builder

Hi, Does anyone know how to set the size of the IE browser when launched from Forms Builder? I have set the width and height setting to 100% so that the applet takes up all the browser space, however the browser is still not as large as I'd like.
When I start IE on its own, it opens in the desired size, it's only when running it from Forms Builder that it's too small. I've searched on the net, but nothing seems to work, there must be a setting specific to Forms?
Thanks
Sam

If you are using SeparateFrame = True, then you might try using these in your When-New-Form-Instance trigger:
set_window_property(forms_mdi_window, window_state, maximize);
set_window_property('Your_Main_Window', window_state, maximize);
If you are not using SeparateFrame = True, then you may have to use JavaScript in the page where your applet is located. Javascript can also go in your formsweb.cfg file. See:
HTMLbeforeForm=<script>....</script>
or
HTMLafterForm=<script>....</script>

DNG files will not open in photoshop when launched from lightroom

This just started, I can't open DNG files in photoshop when launching from within lightroom. Not sure how to fix this. the dng files launch fine from bridge.

As for your issue with DNGs in CS, did you bother to update ACR to version 2.4?
See the detailed instructions on the download page.
>What I need to know is whether or not my PS CS will work with files converted by Adobe DNG.
Of course ACR will, if you correctly install Adobe Camera Raw 2.4.
No version of Photoshop opens raw or DNG files, only ACR does, hosted by Photoshop. But you do need at least version 2.4 of ACR, which was the first to support DNGs.

Separator page prints out with wrong name when printing from Outlook 2010

Working with Windows 7 Enterprise, Outlook 2010. We've set up our desk printers to print a separator page with the user's name, as several people use the same printers in our building. Printing from IE, Word, etc. all work fine, and it'll print
out the correct username on the separator page.
When anyone attempts to print an Outlook email, it instead prints out my username. We've found that it doesn't happen if they click on the "quick print" button, but it happens every time if they do "file > Print" or Ctrl+P.

Hi
As per the information and details provided by you that separator page prints out with wrong name when printing from Outlook 2010, please follow these steps: -
To create a custom separator page file, use a text editor such as
Notepad. On the very first line, type one single character, and then press
Enter. The character on this line defines the character used as an escape character. For example, the following list assumes that this character is the at sign (@).
Enter the escape codes for the functions you want, and then save the file with an .sep extension in the Windows System32 subfolder.
In the Print Manager, select the printer that you want to use the separator page file with, and then click
Choose Properties on the Printer menu.
Click
Details, specify the name of the desired separator page file in the
Separator File box, and then click OK.
Note:
Put the custom separator page file in one of the following locations:
In the %Windir%System32 folder.
In a folder whose path contains a SepFiles folder. For example:
Drive:\Folder\SepFiles\Subfolder
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thanks and regards

Studio creator 2 launch from desktop

I wanted to fine out if java have a download that has drag-an-drop component to create applications that can be deployed from sun systems? I know studio creator 2 has a drag-an-drop component feature for web application, if I create a application using studio creatior2 can it be launch from the sun system?

Maybe I didn't quite answer your question. What do you mean by "launch from desktop"? You can run Java Studio Creator applications on your local desktop machine by running them in the Sun Java System Application Server 8.x Platform Edition that's bundled with Creator for development and testing, but they are web applications running inside the J2EE container and do not have complete access to files on your local desktop machine.
You can use Java Studio Enterprise or the new NetBeans Enterprise Pack 5.5 Beta to create server side EJBs and Web Services that have complete access to server side files. If you want a simple desktop application that has complete access, use NetBeans with its new the intuitive GUI builder Matisse.

App aliases beep when launched from Dock

Recently, my rMBP has started beeping (System Alert) when I launch apps that are aliases from the Dock. If I just put the app in the Dock, no alert when launching it. But if I make an alias of an app (say, for a collection of apps, like the Adobe Suite, or Internet related apps) in a folder, and drag the folder to the Dock so that I can launch any of the apps in that collection, the app will launch, but I get the beep/System Alert. For the life of me I can't figure out why, and it only recently started doing this in the last month or so...was fine before. I can't figure out why, and haven't had any luck Googling the issue. Has anyone had this happen to them before, or have an idea what could be causing it?

From my experience playing with the Thrive, when you attempt to watch a media file, it will open a menu asking you what application to use. From that popup, you can set a default.
