The Right-click context menu on bookmarks on my mac is not working

Hi. After recently upgrading to FF 3.6.12 on my Macbook Pro running OSX 10.6.4, I can no longer right-click on my individual bookmark names, and get the context menu to come up. It will simply not appear in some areas, and in other areas it works wrong, and in one area, it works correctly. For example:
1. If I choose Bookmarks from the top menu, and right-click on a bookmark name, the context menu does not come up and FF simply opens that webpage the same as if I had left-clicked on it.
2. If I right-click on a Bookmark from the toolbar menu on the far right, by clicking on >>, in this list, if I right-click, nothing at all happens. The context menu does not come up and it also does not go to the webpage as it shouldn't.
3. Now, if I right-click on a bookmark name on the Bookmarks Toolbar running horizontal right above the Tabs, these bookmarks do behave properly. The normal context menu comes up.
So as you can see, I'm getting 3 different behaviors when right-clicking on bookmark names in 3 different areas. Help....
Thanks...

I have my bookmarks in lots of folders on the bookmarks toolbar, if i want to right click on any bookmark in a folder to get the context menu i cannot get the context menu to appear. I thought it was me but I think this is the same issue described above. I would really like to have this working.

  • The Right click context menu, and menu butons are all yellow?

    Everything else is working normally, and the Yellow text is un related to windows itself, as Windows still has the standard coloring for the menus and Right click context. im stumped.

    Hmmm, that shouldn't happen. It's difficult to change the text colors in the interface without installing a theme or an add-on that lets you tweak the menus.
    Can you try switching between the default theme and your current theme?
    Do any of those extensions let you change display settings?

  • Is there any way to prevent the right click context menu from combining Stop/Reload?

    Is there any way (about:config tweak, or something) to prevent the right click context menu from combining Stop/Reload?
    Screenshot of what I'm talking about: http://picsend.net/images/873089StupidReloadSto.png

    I did try the add-on ''Menu Editor'' https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/ but even when I separate the navigation reload and stop icons and explicitly have both stop and reload set to be visible on the right click context menu I only get the one option showing.
    Whilst there may be some way of changing this I do not know how to and I do not really see any use case for making such a change. Only one option of the choice: stop or reload, is available at any instance in time, but that is the option you are able to use, the other option is not active and so is not displayed.

  • Is it possible to add a button to the right-click context menu for a user in Outlook 2010 using VBA?

    I've tried many things and read up quite a bit but I cannot figure this out.
    I cannot create an add-in so I have to use VBA.
    I want to add a a button to the right-click context menu when I right-click on a user. Is this possible?

    Hello,
    Yes, it is possible to customize the context menu in Outlook. See
    Customizing Context Menus in Office 2010 for more information.
    But VBA doesn't allow to customize the Fluent UI in Outlook, you need to develop an add-in instead.

  • How do I fix the right-click context menu; it has blank entries and shows no selectable options?

    recently I have noticed that my right-click context menu looks like it has no entries. It shows up on a right-click, but the whole menu is blank. On further investigation there are scroll buttons on the top and bottom of the menu and if I hover over the up buttom eventually the normal context commands scroll down from above. I noticed this first a few days ago, shortly after the download of 3.6.13. Today I also noticed that some of my menu bars were showing a similar issue with blank entries in the menus. In one case the menu also didn't register where the mouse was, highlighting a command several steps further up.
    Is this something to do with the new Mozilla or something else? I only run a couple of addons, Ad Block Plus and Tab Mix Plus. Can try to capture a screen shot of the issue, but difficult since the menu dissapears when I try to do a screen grab!
    All help is much appreciated.

    Hi, thanks for the quick response!
    While trying to find info on how to fix this I looked up some context menu addons for FF and tried one. It didn't work so I uninstalled it and after that everything was back to normal. Odd, but there you have it. I still don't know what went wrong in the first place but for the moment it appears to have cleared up.
    Next time though I will try loading into Safe Mode if I find any issues (I forgot there was one!).
    Thanks for getting back to me again.

  • What Acrobat SDK Technology I need to build a plugin that creates a new item to the Right-Click context menu?

    I want to develop a plugin for Adobe Reader that will be invoked through a new item in the Right-Click menu.
    What is the right SDK Technology to build this new item? Javascript, Interapplication Communication or a C/C++ plugin?
    I would feel more comfortable with JS or C#, but I don't know if I must use the C++ API to be able to build such level of integration.
    Thank you very much.

    Plugins are written in C/C++ and especially something such as adding to the UI.
    To add this to Acrobat, no license or fee is required - you can do it today with just the SDK and Acrobat.
    However, to build a plugin for Reader, you will need to obtain a license from Adobe.  Details are in the SDK under "Reader Integration Key License Agreement" (RIKLA).

  • How can I edit the right-click context menu?

    I seem to have two entries for every Adobe product when I right-click a file and choose "Open With..." Is there a way to either clean it out automatically, or fix this myself?
    ...Mike

    Could be caused by several things I believe.
    You have already checked you have only one application folder with one Adobe
    app for each in it on your Disk?
    Also look in the preferences in Bridge under file type associations for the
    given extensions, do they also show double applications?
    Try first to refresh preferences with restart Bridge holding down option
    key, it is the first aid for Bridge and curing many problems.
    Also use Disk Utility to check and repair permissions for your OS.

  • How to remove "Open with... Adobe Acrobat" from the right click context menu

    We want to deploy Adobe Acrobat on our Citrix envoriment. At this moment we have Adobe Reader for all users installed. Adobe Acrobat should be only availible to a selection of users. I've tried to remove everything with the custimaztion tool but one thing which I'm not able to is to remove the option when you right click a PDF document that you can choose to open with and then Adobe Acrobat XI. I want to disable this because else users who don't have the permission to run Adobe Acrobat are still able to run it.

    Sorry but you're not right, why are there then whtiepapers how to install it on Citrix?

  • How do I modify the file right-click context menu to add "creat shortcut"?

    I have just chosen Mozilla as my browser and want to add shortcuts to files by using the right-click context menu, but there is no "create shortcut" choice displayed.

    Could you describe where you're clicking, exactly? Are you clicking on a web page, or clicking a link on a web page? If you are using Firefox to browse files on your hard drive, you're probably better off using Windows Explorer to do that since Firefox doesn't have all the functions of Windows.

  • Libreoffice right-click context menu going beyond the end of the page

    having a rather annoying issue with libreoffice 3.x (started with 3.5.x and still in 3.6.1): The right-click context menu goes over the screen borders when I am at the end of the page (instead of opening in the other direction so that all options are visible). I am running arch 64bit KDE 4.9.1. But I think in this case that's not relevant because we have a second computer, the same one basically with an extremely similar setup and there it works just fine. I did uninstall libreoffice, got rid of the .cache in the home folder, then reinstalled but the problem persists.
    Anyone know how to fix this or hints on how to approach the problem?
    Thx!
    Captn

    Update:
    the problem was fixed with an update to KDE 4.9.2 but shortly after for some reason, it reappeared. As previously mentioned, I tried uninstalling libreoffice entirely, including the libreoffice .config folder. Here is what it looks like (second screen shot):
    I noticed that this also happens with dolphin when I open it as root. Someone came across the same issue and fixed it?
    Help's greatly appreciated
    Captn
    Edit: libreoffice version 3.6.1
    Edit 2: Real Problem identified:
    I just wanted to update this thread should there be others that, at one point or another, run into a similar problem. I won't be marking the thread as solved since I did not actually solve the problem (yet). However, I did identify the cause and therefore know how to circumvent it.
    Since I didn't elaborate much on the specs / technical side, I have an HP pavilion with an Nvidia card and I am using the propretiary drivers. I set up a separate X screen for my TV and there is where the problem lies. It has worked for months but since recently this setup causes some weird graphical behavior (as in the above pictures) which can be annoying. If using the twinview setup or no external monitor, everything works normal. My guess is that plasma-desktop and the separate x screen don't work very well together for a reason unknown to me for the time being.
    The problem itself can be annoying if you rely on libreoffice to work so I hope this might help somebody should there be annyone running into a similar issue.

  • "Save link as" in Right-click Context menu is not working properly.

    Firefox 17: In a Google search, when I right click on a .pdf link, the popup window automatically gives a "url" filename and "Firefox Document" as filetype. Previously, the filename would be whatever it was on the website (ie. "filename.pdf") and the filetype would be "Adobe Acrobat Document".
    I know this problem has less to do with Firefox and more to do with JavaScript, because the problem disappears if you disable JavaScript (Tools -- Options -- Content -- uncheck "Enable JavaScript"). What's happening is that JavaScript is somehow altering the link from a purely .pdf link to something else -- perhaps encasing the link inside a set of commands, and the computer is trying to save the command string instead of recognizing the link for what it is. When JavaScript is disabled in Google searches, the highlighted "[PDF]" link no longer appears in front of the link itself, and the "Save link as" function on the right-click works properly.
    Any JavaScript junkies want to try their hand at creating a workaround? One that ensures that the reference created by the right-click context menu matches exactly what the filename is for the website?

    The problem is that Google has an onmousedown attribute added to the links that modify a link if you click or right-click a result link to make the link point to a safe browsing check on the Google server.<br />
    You can see that if you hover a link and you will notice that after you have (right) click a link the the URL changes to www.google.com/url?xxxxx.
    You can use this bookmarklet to remove the onmousedown attributes.
    <pre><nowiki>javascript:(function(){var e=document.querySelectorAll('*[id="search"] a[onmousedown]'),E,i;for(i=0;E=e[i];i++){E.removeAttribute('onmousedown')}})()</nowiki></pre>

  • Update for RDP 8.1 Windows 7 SP1 changed explorer right click context menu

    I have a 4 pcs and 3 nas drive on my network.  previous to the update I could view my pcs and nas drives in explorers right pane left click one and access the folders on it.  since the update I can no longer do this because "remotedesktopconnection"
    has been added as the default (previously it was "open") to the right click context menu.  can someone help me change this back so when I right click a network computer icon in explorer I only see:

    Hi
    Theoretically it could be done by modify registry. For example you could
    modify right click menu on .exe file by changing values under
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shellex\
    However there are some problems that I cannot define that what kind of “file”
    the network computer is.
    And I found no article specific to this.
    If you really need to restore your context menu and also need this update, I
    suggest you uninstall this update first. Then back up your registry, install it
    again. This time using process monitor you could record all registry modifications during
    this update installation. It might take lots of work.
    I tried to do that for you, unfortunately this update has been deployed in our environment which cannot be uninstalled from update history.

  • Right click context menu does not appear only for Java 1.7, AWT TextField

    I have been debugging some issues that an application has been having with Java 1.7 versus older versions. A new problem I have encountered is that the right click context menu does not function in any TextField. It works fine when running/compiling it with any previous version of Java. I have tried coding a simple test with a Frame, Panel and TextField to see if it might be something else in the more complex application that was causing it, but the simple test class has the same problem.
    I have searched for other people having the same issue, but I have not found anything comparable. This seems like a huge change from one version to the next and I am surprised that I am not finding this mentioned anywhere else. Can someone point me to anything that discusses this issue that I am having? Does 1.7 require I implement my own context menu? I realize AWT is old technology, but this is an old, fairly complex application that doesn't use swing, and that is not going to change at this point.
    My simple test:
    import java.awt.*; 
    import java.awt.event.*; 
    import java.util.*; 
    class testF3 extends Panel 
      public static void main(String args[]) 
        Frame f = new Frame(); 
        Panel p = new Panel(); 
        f.setLayout(new BorderLayout()); 
        f.add("North", p); 
        TextField tf1 = new TextField("", 20); 
        p.add(tf1); 
        Dimension medm = f.getSize(); 
        medm.height = 100; 
        medm.width = 200; 
        f.setSize(medm); 
        f.setVisible(true); 
    } 

    In the past few days since upgrading to 4.0.4, the entire right-click context menu for links is gone and replaced with one item: "Copy Link" The "Open In New Tab" item, along with some other context items, is no longer there.
    That's actually a problem with your particular installation of Safari, b. I've got all the contextual menu entries with my 4.0.4.
    I helped fix one of these recently here at the forum. Try the procedure from the following post (it got back Tho's missing contextual menu entries):

  • Reader 9.1.3 Right click context menu

    Good Morning,
    We have deployed the Acrobat Reader 9.1.3 MSP Patch on our network to upgrade to the latest version.  However, after the upgrade we are missing some functionality.  In previous versions we were able to right click on a PDF(s) and have the option to "Print".  With the new version those context menus seem to be missing.  Was this a change done by the product?  If so, anyone know why? And if not, does anyone know what I can do about re-adding this functionality?
    Thank you for your time on this matter,

    I put the following into a .reg file and this seems to work. Anything you see that could be wrong?  It does bring back the "Print" option under the right click context menu.

  • Disable Right Click Context Menu in XP "OPEN WITH ADOBE READER 8"

    How can I eliminate the right click context menu "OPEN WITH ADOBE READER 8" in Windows XP?

    That would be the device Metadata from the print driver vendor. It's part of the Device Stage feature mainly for client OS.
    Here is some MSDN documentation on the feature.
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/features/device-management
    If this is a print server, use the tools include by the print team if you are performing any management on the server.
    Printmanagement.msc
    The Devices UI is really about devices it's not designed for print management, the spooler team had minimal input on the UI design.
