System windows repositioning in the desktop area

How can I get various system windows in WINDOWS XP and also WINDOWS 7 (e.g "Display Properties" card or "System Properties" card) to remember their new placing in the desktop area after I have moved them? They always revert back to the original position next time I open them.

It is a preference in Finder>Preferences>General>Show CD&DVD
and >Sidebar>show items in sidebar

    We have a 10 person office - all either use Acrobat XI or Reader XI.  One person is on Windows 7.  The rest are on Windows 8 (not 8.1).  I say this because I thought it was a Windows 8 issue, but having the same problems on the Windows 7 machine. We are all having problems opening pdf's sent to us from other firms. This has increased in frequency over the past two months. We've checked with the various firms, and their other clients are not having problems. Some pdfs open but with a lot of missing content and strange formatting, others won't open at all.  There are different error messaged depending upon the doc.  Some are regarding the fonts, for example "can't extract the embedded font...."  Others are "insufficient data" errors.  There are more, but for purposes of keeping this short, I won't include them.  Another unrelated issue is that we are having trouble printing excel files to pdf.  The files end up with bad formatting.  I've worked with adobe "chat" support, our IT consultants with no resolution.  I also haven't found any similar "known issue" online  Would very much appreciate any assistance.  Thank you

    The font embedding can be a problem if not done and you are trying to view the PDF and do not have the font on your machine. Acrobat will often try to find a replacement, but it is not always a good choice. Sometimes the "Use Local Fonts" button can be changed in state to resolve some of the viewing issues.
    If you are trying to copy or export info, then it is important that you have the fonts on your system. Otherwise, the message you are getting about embedded fonts would not be showing up.
    As for Excel formatting, be sure that the Adobe PDF printer is selected in the printer screen before you look for the paging and formatting of the file. In most OFFICE programs, if you change the printer the application will reflow the document to best match the printer (called "using printer metrics"). So check before you create the PDF that the layout is correct.

  • Window Tabs: dragging the window tab to the desktop

    Window Tabs: Tried to grab the top of the finder window and wound up dragging the window tab to the desktop.
    This creates a mini-window have to logout to remove.
    If you right click on the finder icon in the dock and select show all windows they are in the list selecting them seems to do nothing but return you to the desktop.
    What the heck is it?

    Hi roninkai I'm also experiencing this behaviour, if you drag a finder window by its tab on to the desktop it creates a mini finder window that doesn't do anything. I keep doing it by mistake.
    You can get rid of them by doing a  Force Quit on the Finder from the Apple menu, this quickly refreshes the desktop and then they disappear.
    Hope they fix this in the next point release.
    Cheers

  • No system disk appears on the desktop. Help please.

    No system disk appears on the desktop.
    Here all external drives.
    I rebootedholding the shift key.
    I have checked the Finder / Preferences / General is selected to show the hard drives, also in Finder / Preferences / Sidebar is selected.
    I have opened the Disk Utility application and if you see the system disk, I have told you to check and tells me that the disk has no problems.
    Otherwise the iMac works perfectly, but Safari, which is all I have used since the problem besides Disk Utility sometimes gets stuck, and has trouble reconnecting.
    Help, please.

    Hello Jan:
    Thanks for the reply.
    I do not know how important it is, well, I've always been there and now I do not know because it is not, simply so I have direct access to everything on my iMac.
    Suddenly disappeared, which means that something is wrong with the computer.
    No, the sidebar does not appear.
    Thanks for the reply. Greetings from Valencia, Spain

  • On start all of the folders on the desktop are moved to the right side of the screen and jumbled together, not as I had them organized on the left side of the screen. OS X v10.6.8

    sometimes on start all of the folders on the desktop are moved alphabetically to the right side of the screen, not as I had them organized on the screen before. also sometimes  my folders  when opened, move and resize themselves too...

    Start with one of these:

  • Folders on the desktop are wrong-Contain all File Paths

    My wife insists that the desktop folders originally only contained any files that were stored in them.  Last week the folder when opened, shows a complete path from the HD > desktop > Folder > Files.  This makes for a very busy Finder display and I am unable to identify what caused it or how to get rid of this unwanted display.
    Can anyone help?

    Hi.
    You're getting this?
    Instead of this?...
    The key is the "Show items as..." group of buttons in the toolbar... (as seen directly above the printer icon in the screen shot above).
    Make sure the Toolbar (and Side Bar) are visible so you can select the view.  ⌥⌘T (option-command-T) is the toggle to display the Toolbar.
    I hope this is helpful.

  • Equalizer Window is Outside Reachable Desktop Area - HELP!

    The equalizer window in iTunes is only visible when using function to view all windows in miniature. When I select on the EQ window in this view, it returns to its natural state - outside the screen area that is reachable by mouse pointer. I never hook this laptop up to a second monitor. How do I get it back?

    That's very interesting. I'm wondering if I got a "special" version of Tiger which left that out or what!!!
    Image:!http://public.me.com/dzkohn/displayprefs.jpg!
    can't seem to get my image to display here. Screen capture of my display prefs window is at
    http://public.me.com/dzkohn/displayprefs.jpg
    How do you display an image in a forum message? I tried uploading the image file to the public space on my iDisk and then referencing that file using the Image: tag as described in the very measly docs for these forums. It obviously didn't work. 3 cheers for MobileMe and it's supposed intuitive interface, as well as not delivering on making it easy to share files (as was touted before its release).
    Also, BTW, the Window Wrangler fix worked for the original problem. Good going Apple! Leaving it to a 3rd party to squash one of your (unacknowledged) bugs sure inspires confidence in your competence.

  • I can't "Get Photos" through Bridge unless they are JPEGS ie. can't detect the RAW files on the SD card.  I can with my Canon software and with Bridge on my laptop. I have Windows 8 on the desktop (which is where i have my problem) and Windows 7 on my lap

    Does anyone else have this problem? Or better still, have a solution?

    Never point Bridge at a camera card.
    This excerpt is from a long-gone post by author Bruce Fraser:
    Bruce Fraser - 4:17pm Jun 14, 04 PST (#5 of 21) Opening files directly from the camera is a bad idea for a variety of reasons*, and it most certainly isn't faster than using a FireWire or USB2 card reader. 
             • Drains the camera battery
             • Runs the risk of the software you're using to open the images writing to the card and destroying the format
             • Runs a small but significant risk of USB power frying the camera
             • Slowest method known to mankind of getting images off a CF or SD card

  • No sound with WIndows 10 and the Desktop-App

    Hi guys,I've updated my computer to Windows 10 but now Spotify isn't working anymore. It seems that songs are playing, but there is no sound (I've already checked the loudspeakers, also on Windows). The WebPlayer is working without problems.Can anyone help me with this problem?Thanks a lot!

    I had the same issue. After I updated to Windows 10, Spotify would play the song, but there was no volume no matter how much I toyed with the volume settings. SOLUTION: Uninstall Spotify and then Reinstall it.  This solved the issue for me. Best of Luck!

  • In Firefox 5, New Windows open in the same window even though the options are set to open in a new window.

    I have the options set to open new windows in a new tab. However, they do not.
    For example, as I click on the various options for support on Firefox.com, each opens in the same window. Similarly for Yahoo. If I bring up the news page and click on various links, they all open in the same window. How do you get them to open in new windows?

    Pure speculation, but maybe that Identity Finder program is deleting your browsing history which is how Firefox restores tabs and windows from the previous session. Check with technical support for that program or look at the manual.

  • Bookmark drop downs that go outside the Firefox window are left on the desktop when bookmarks closed requiring a refresh to clean up

    If I open Bookmarks and select a folder that is longer than the Firefox window is high, the part of the bookmarks list that falls outside the window remains on the desktop when I leave bookmarks or close the window. I must then do a refresh of the desktop to get rid of the junk. Does not happen with MS IE9. I am using Windows 7 Home Premium on a SONY VAIO laptop. It started when I went to the VAIO last November. A "Show Desktop" or a refresh of the desktop cleans it up.

    Could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration? Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches with some graphic cards/drivers.
    You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If you restart Firefox, is the issue resolved?
