Spotlight does not open a finder window when i choose Show all in finder menu?
I have a significant number of files in my Macbook Air. A lot of them are research papers and medical literature.
About a month ago I updated the operating system from snow Leopard to mountain Lion and I had no reasons to complain except a smaller battery time.
Since then I installed every OS update.
After the last update, a few days ago, Spotlight does not open a finder window when i choose Show all in finder menu.
Spotlight continues to work properly if I write a name or expression in spotlight in a finder window but not in the upper left corner at the menu bar
As this been described yet?
Thank you in advance
Miguel Tavares
I had the same problem yesterday after performing a clean install of Mountain Lion (10.8.2) on my MacBook Pro.
I resolved the problem by booting from the Mountain Lion Recovery Partition and then running Disk Utilty (Repair) for the primary disk on which Mountain Lion is installed. It identified (and repaired) many permissions issues...
When I rebooted following the repair, Spotlight worked again properly -- including the "Show All in Finder" function.

Windows media player does not open in new window
When I go to a web site that may have several wmv files to view, if I view one, a new tab does not open for wmv. When I am through watching the clip, I close windows media, but it does not return me to the original web site, I just have a white screen and I have to go back and reload the page again to view another clip.
Hi Paul,
I face the same problem, any findings so far?
Thanks!

Blank error message with ? appears and PDF does not open in Browser (IE11) when clicking link to open pdf. PC - IE11 Acrobat 9.0
Cannot access in browser PDF files unless blank box is closed and then website address is clicked on again in browser address bar and page reloaded.
Uninstalled Acrobat 9, reinstalled, still same problem.
Help please!Yes I can it only happens in the browser..
I reinstalled Windows on my machine and started over a couple of weeks ago.
When my desktop started up I didn’t have Acrobat installed and clicked on a pdf file and the open with xxx dialogue box came open.
I chose a different program as Acrobat wasn’t installed yet so it associated pdf files with another program.
Later Installed Acrobat and couldn’t associate the pdf file with acrobat so I went into Folder Options and manually associated PDF files with Acrobat.
Ever since then I get the error when something is downloaded and opened in the browser.
Works fine everywhere else and when I cancel the blank error, highlight the web address and press enter to reload it works 90% of the time.
Not sure what to do.. -

Is the checkbox in this screenshot checked for your Finder preferences. If so uncheck it and try again.

When I click on the tab with a + on it, located next to the active tab a new page does not open. If I click on "New Tab" in the File menu a new tab does not open.
Hi jcatx2013, we don't really have enough information on your system to make specific suggestions...
Could you test in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference? -

Thank youMiddle-click or click the scroll-wheel on a hyperlink has always opened a '''new Tab'''. Any chance you had an add-on that changed that action, and now that add-on is disabled or incompatible?

PDF in Frame - Open Web Link does not open in new window
I actually have 2 problems.
1. Acrobat 7.0.9. Added a link to open a web page. When the pdf is viewed from within a frame on a web page, the web page link in the pdf does not open in a new window but replaces the pdf in the frame.
2. If I download the pdf to my workstation and open it and click on the link, it does open in a new window BUT opens up 2 browser windows where the 2nd one opened is blank (yes, I am single clicking on the link)
Issue 1 occurs in both IE 6, IE 7 and Firefox ?.??

Option/command does not open a new window from bookmarks
I have an occasional problem: how come sometimes a bookmarked link in Safari does not open in a new window when I click option/command. or even shift/option/command. I have had and still have this issue over the last few iterations of OS X and Safari. Does not do it for all bookmarks just a few.
OK. A couple of other things to try in that case.
It may just be a corrupt preference file causing the issue, so quit Safari, trash this file and then restart Safari:
Hard drive > Users > Your Username > Library > Preferences > com.apple.Safari.plist
If that makes no difference, does it behave correctly when used from another user account on the same machine? If you don't have another account then use System Preferences > Accounts > \[+\] to create a temporary one for testing. -

Compiled executable does not open in maximized window
I have attached a JPG showing the VI Properties that pertain to Window size. Despite the fact that I have indicated in Run-Time Position - Position: Maximized. The compiled executable does not open in a maximized window.
Even stranger, if I take the shortcut for the program and change it's properties (on the target machine) to Open Maximized, it still doesn't open maximized.
I have had this behavior with every compiled executable for a couple of years using versions of LabVIEW 8, 2010, 2011 and currently 2011 SP1. Both the compiling machine and the target machine are Windows XP.
Is there any explanation for this behavior? Any way to correct it?
Solved!
Go to Solution.
Attachments:
VI Properties.JPG 81 KBI think Ravens Fan is correct. The aspect ratio appears to take precedence over the window position.
You can set a property manually in your code to maximize the window.

Whenever I open a Private Browsing window, it closes all of my non-private windows until I end the private session. Is there a setting or add-on that will make it so I can have both private and non-private windows open? Both Internet Explorer and Chrome allow you to do this and it is the only reason I'm not using Firefox.
That unfortunately is the way that Firefox works.
You could create a new Firefox profile, but it would have it's own set of bookmarks,
you could use a different browser for either half, but again it would not share you
bookmarks. Firefox has the best bookmarks, but I understand your situation.
Private browsing does not suit my usage because it turns off everything privacy related and I would not want to turn off bookmarking or lose my session data. I am the only user on my computer. -
I didn't have this problem before with Firefox. My kids must have pressed something or clicked on something that's the open new tab button does not function anymore. No matter how you click it, it doesn't open a new tab. Even if you click on file, then go to new tab, it still doesn't open a new tab. You have to open a new firefox window in order to do multiple browsing.
Hope you can help resolve this problem.
Sincerely,
Ems GuillarteUninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened. Checking your list of add-ons, the MyPlayCity toolbar is a version of the Ask toolbar.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons -
IMac external hhd does not open on networked windows 8.1 pc
Hi there
I hav a 2008 iMac with OS 10.10 and it has three external HHD that are networked to my windows pc. I can see the icons on my pc but when I click on a drive it will not open. In fact it can crash windows explorer and pc has trouble turning off or restarting even logging off. I think I have the correct setting on the mac and pc. I can see and open the shared folders on the mac from the pc but can not open the drives. Could anyone tell me what I am doing wrong. Driving me mad.
Thanks for any helpHi Gottfried,
No, I have not found a solution yet. Because I don't have any issues when I am running Fiddler2, I did some research on that program. On their website, they say the problem (that Fiddler fixes) is usually caused by applications sending the GetResponseStream()
method but failing to call close on the resulting object. The maximum connections-per-host is then reached. But, I don't know if Win7 and Win8 handle SharePoint requests differently - I'm guessing that they do.
According to our service provider, this is a bug in the combination that we are running (Win8 and SP2013 w/SSL). They have more than 20,000 customers and can't get it to work! I have went through their level 1,2 and 3 support teams who all could not solve
it.
I am surprised that you got it to work in your internal environment - do you also have port 80 (in addition to 443) accepting requests? I have no problem at all when using no encryption. On the public site I have a valid certificate and internally
using self-signed. (No different than when I was running SP2010). I have tried different combinations of authentication methods and ordering, but nothing worked.
Hopefully, somebody can provide some insight into what might be going on here, so that you and I can get this working. It has become a major problem in our company and our employees are starting to revert back to alternative services to share files.
