Text Box Edit only works on 1 open window.

I add comments to drawings using the Text Box constantly and I use the Text Box Edit [ctrl+e] command frequently (to change text color, font size, etc.)
How come the Text Box Edit only opens in one Acrobat window at a time? Then when I close the other window that the toolbar is available in I am still unable to bring up that toolbar in the .pdf I need it on.
If I leave the toolbar floating (undocked) it will pop up in some random area on my monitor.
I want to have the Text Box Edit toolbar docked on every Acrobat window I have open and be able to use it on each.
This is annoying. I still dont understand why nowadays every .pdf needs it own separate window but thats a whole separate issue.
Any help would be great. Thanks guys.

This is a debate I am having with my IT dept. When I right click on the word icon on the dock to show in finder it seems to say it is launching from the client drive but I'm not convinced.
I have read that I would need to install te server tools on the client to control what items appear in the dock? I am a little confuesed by this.
Any ideas?
Thanks for the reply
Chris

I have powerpoint for Mac on my imac. I can't seem to get the active text box function to work like it did on my PC. How can I insert an active textbox into a presentation that will allow me to type while presenting?

I've gotten a little further on this. The dynamic select is
working fine. It's the "a href" code that isn't. I'm wondering if
someone can look at this line and tell me if it's okay to build the
query string this way. The storeid comes through fine but I'm still
not getting the employeeid value to pass. Here's line that's not
working:
td><a href="registerStoreCust.php?storeid=<?php echo
$row_storeRS['storeid']; echo "&employeeid="; echo
$_GET['employeeLM']; ?>">Register
Customer</a></td>

Customizing Slideshows - how do I add an image in the text box that only shows up for a specific ima

Customizing Slideshows - how do I add an image in the text box that only shows up for a specific image and not in every text box?

Can you maybe provide a screen shot to further explain your question?

Can I enlarge the text on my Bookmarks Toolbar and my open window tabs?

The text on my Bookmarks Toolbar and my open windows is too small for my eyes. Is there a way to enlarge the text? Also is there a way to enlarge the icons such as Home, Reload and Stop? I have already unchecked the "small icons" option.

Once you get to "about.config" enter "pixels" in the search box at the top of the list. That will bring up the line you want to change, (layout.css.devPixelsPerPx.) Change the value from 1.0 to whatever suits you.

Keynote Text box transition not working correctly

Having issues trying to create an animated build-in effect on a bulleted textbox in Keynote ("Scale Big" and "By Character") - I am using Keynote v6.1
I have created it many times before but for some reason the latest version of keynote refuses to render it properly. I choose the text box, then animate and "Build In" is selected as default, then I:
- Click on "Add an Effect"
- Select "Scale Big"
- Select "By Character" (under "Text Delivery" option) and then preview
However, the effect that is rendered is the same as the "By Object" option. This effect used to work for me befroe but only recenlty is givin me issues.
Anybody else face the same issue ? Please advise - it's one of my favorite effects in my presentations

Scale Big - By Character works correctly for me, I suggest you repair Keynote by doing the following:
ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
1 delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote by using Appcleaner from Mac Update to      do this, its freeware
2 restart the Mac;   Apple menu > restart
3 immediately after the start chime, press the shift key until you see the Apple symbol.
     let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
4 when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and      click repair disc permissions
5 when complete, restart the Mac normally
6 install Keynote from the Mac App Store
please report back.

Scrolling Text box - won't work in IE

Hey everyone. I'll admit right off the bat that I'm very new
to web design, so I'm sure I've been making some mistakes. I'm much
more of a designer than a coder, but I'm doing the best I can.
I'm wanting to have a scrolling text box embedded on some of
my pages, and have figured out how to do it, thanks largely to
these forums. I've made a CSS tag that has gotten it working
correctly - sort of.
You can see the page in question at
http://www.kylehamrick.com/testing.html
It appears to be working correctly in Firefox. However, in
IE, the text just keeps flowing down onto the page, outside of the
allotted area. What am I doing wrong?
Also, is there a way to make this look correct in
Dreamweaver? Once I add text that exceeds the table height, it
breaks up my page, though it still looks fine in the browser. Is
there something I can do to correct this?
Thanks in advance for any assistance with this. I sincerely
appreciate it.
Any other advice in regards to the page is welcome! Please
keep in mind that I'm very new to this, and it's still under
construction, so don't be TOO harsh... =)
Also, is this all I have to do? It seems that you all have a
way to examine my code and such just by having me post the url, is
that right? Is there anything else you need from me?

Anyone? Sorry, had to give this a bump. Seems it got buried
VERY quickly.
Again, I'd appreciate any guidance you can provide!

On Unix Clinet with Java 1.4.1 plug-in, text boxes are not working

On Unix Client with Java 1.4.1 plug-in version, text box is not responsive (I am not able to enter anything).
But If load the same applet on the same client by upgrading the plug-in to 1.4.2, it works. Is this a known bug in Java plug-in 1.4.1?
Thanks

Torch 9800 touch screen only works when slid open.

Hello everyone, this is my 1st post but I've been lurking the forum for some time. I'm running a Torch 9800 on AT&T right now on v6.0.0.600
This is what's happened with my phone: as the subject notes, my touch screen only seems to work when I slide open the phone.
What I've tried so far that doesn't work: rolling back software, rolling the software forward again, hard resets, soft resets, adjusting intervals for the touch screen.
The weird part is that I saw an older thread that had the exact opposite problem(touch screen only worked when the phone was slid closed). I have a level/ruler app for my phone and it's showing that the phone knows when it's tilted/angle/orientation. I've also closed the phone, opened it slightly (about the width of my thumb) and it stays horizontally oriented + I'm able to use the touch keyboard that way.
Anybody have a suggestion as to what I can try next to fix this? I haven't gone so far as to just go and get a 9810 yet, but i'm considering it.

Thanks for the post.
Has it in anyway fallen or pressed hard at any point? It could be the belt, which would just need you to go with it to a certified repair center and get it secured.

Bold a dynamic text box is not working...

Dear Friends,
i neeed to create a text box with bold letter. my coding is as follows.
but it always shows bold, even i gave tf1.bold = false.
    reptitle.text = options[0][0].tit;
    var tf1:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
    tf1.color = options[0][0].col;
    tf1.size = options[0][0].siz;
    tf1.bold = options[0][0].bol;
    reptitle.setTextFormat(tf1);
    trace("bold :"+tf1.bold + " dat :"+options[0][0].bol);
Note: where options[0][0] is an array has all the properties bold = true/false, color = 0x----.
Any body can clarify me.. i got struct up..pls..
Thanks and Regards,
Syed Abdul Rahim

you'll need two textformat instances (one with bold enabled and one without) to display text with both bold and non-bold text at the same time with setTextFormat. if you just want to change the text from bold to non-bold (and vice-versa), you can use one instance.

How can I adjust fonts in one window only without affecting other open windows

I like to use a chat program and adjust font size without affecting other open windows

thanks for quick answer but I'm looking to use what you said to affect Only one open window ( chat ). I got an answer to this 1 or 2 years ago using XP but forgot how to do it. I know typing in an url lets me inside the code to change something there choosing yes or no for that function. I forgot the url or particular function.
thanks

Is it possible to restore lost windows? Firefox crashed, and only 5 of my open windows reopened, even though all settings are such that all should be restored.

Unfortunately when I restarted Firefox after its most recent crash, most of my open windows and tabs were not restored as they are set to do and as they usually do after a crash. Not that I enjoy Firefox crashing, but usually everything reopens and life goes on. However, after a crash tonight, when I next opened Firefox about 80% of my open windows and tabs did not reopen.
After this (most recent) crash most of my windows and tabs were not restored:
bp-e7f145b9-04cf-4de8-a4a4-8e2952130816
This was the most recent prior crash where my windows and tabs were restored:
bp-c674bdd3-e905-44c0-9bc9-6b4982130815
**I would love to have these windows and tabs reset, or at least be able to find a list of them to reopen them manually.**
I am running Firefox 23.0. My antivirus and antispyware were run overnight last night with no issues.
(This is on my desktop computer using Windows XP. I also have a laptop which runs Firefox 23.0 which uses Windows 7. Firefox on it crashes as well, but thankfully thus far the windows and tabs have been restored. I use it less than I do my desktop, however.)
Thank you very much!

Thank you -- I will do so. Still, I'm very eager to restore (or find a list of) my windows and tabs that were not restored after the last crash. Is it possible to do that from the last working restore?
The last two working restores were after the crash mentioned above, bp-c674bdd3-e905-44c0-9bc9-6b4982130815, and before that, bp-7f5b697e-c4c5-4cb8-9b15-9318c2130815.
FWIW, I just updated to 23.0.1. Thank you *very* much!

Belkin Thunderbolt Dock -- only works when lid open

I just purchased a Belkin Thunderbolt Express Dock for MacBook Air. However, my external monitor (an Asus) only fires up and displays the desktop when the lid is open on my MacBook. I would prefer to be able to simply dock the closed MacBook, connect to the Thunderbolt Dock, and get working. Solutions? Thanks...

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
To use 'Clamshell Mode' (external screen on with laptop closed) you need to connect an external keyboard and mouse then close the lid to put the MBP to sleep then touch a keyboard key to wake the external screen again.
Make sure you run System Preferences/Displays and set the external preference panel to it's best resolution before doing this.

Magic Mouse only works with laptop open

I bought the Magic Mouse so I could wirelessly awaken my laptop while it was closed and connected to the television.
It worked for months. Now when I awaken the laptop with the mouse it turns on for one second and then turns off.
The mouse works perfectly fine with the laptop open and using the television as a "second monitor". It no longer works how I prefer it with the laptop closed (it's much better because then the sound comes through the TV and not the laptop speakers).
Why did this suddenly happen?

Hello Siôn Dafydd,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are using an external display with your MacBook Pro and when you close the display on your MacBook Pro, the second display turns off. It sounds as though your MacBook Pro may not be connected to power while using with display closed. Please read over the attached article for information on using a second display in closed-clamshell mode.

External display only works with Macbook open?

I have an Acer AL2623W which works fine as an additional or main screen, but a second after you close the laptop the screen goes blank and it shows an 'input not supported' error. The Macbook stays on, it just doesn't drive the monitor alone. Re-open the Macbook and both work normally!

Firefox only works when i open a website starting with https

i did an update yesterday to firefox 8. Since i have it, i can only website starting with https. All other websites starting with http don't work. How can i fix this problem?
Thanks

Hello Susanne.
You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.
