Two taskbar buttons when playing in Windows 7

I had an easy transition to Windows 7 32-bit, iTunes9 is playing fine...except it's the only program that when I launch it, it adds a second taskbar button at the end of the row, and plays from there. That second button is also the one that's highlighted. All my other programs simply go live from the existing button. A trivial issue, I know, but it's taskbar real estate I could use...is this a bug or another Windows "feature"?

Hi
I recently did an upgrade from Vista to Win 7. And I have the same thing happening.
Maybe It's a bug in iTunes?.
Ok, It's not that big of a deal, but anyway. It takes up space having two icons.
You can however make it disappear when minimized by right-clicking the taskbar and go to the the toolfield/toolbar options and select 'iTunes'.
It then turns into the toolbar mini player when minimized.

Why does a LabVIEW executable generate two taskbar buttons on the taskbar?

When a LabVIEW executable is run, it generate two taskbar buttons (with the same name) in the task bar each of them pointing to the same window (panel). Is there a way to prevent it from creating two buttons?
thanks

Add the following line to your executable's .ini file
HideRootWindow=True

Can't switch buttons when playing on a dvd player

I searched the discussions and was unable to find an answer to my problem.
How do you get the dvd to select different buttons when played on a dvd player? When I play the dvd on a computer the buttons are highlighted when the mouse is placed on them, but when I play the dvd on a dvd player, I can't get it to navigate through the different buttons on the menus. I can only select the first button on the page. I'm sure this is a simple fix, but I can't seem to figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Choose the button and go into the advanced tab in the inspector. You can then set the Up, Down, Left and Right function for your dvd buttons. DVD SP will set it up automatically if you like BUT if you have a more complex menu you can set your button navigation manually. Manually gives you a little more control and creativity. When you simulate in DVD SP the buttons will highlight as if on a computer if you use your mouse. If you were to use the button keys (up down arrows) in the simulator you would notice they don't work either. Set you button navigation in the advanced tab in the button inspector...

Do games run better when played using windows xp?

i was wondering if games run better if you have windows xp on your macbook?

Obviously, games with no Mac version will. In actual fact the answer really is… they can. Game performance depends on many many things so a straight answer of yes or no isn't going to be correct.

RealPlayer can cause conflicts with Flash Player because it tries to assign EVERY TYPE of video or audio file to itself by default. I haven't used RealPlayer in years for that reason. It's an unnecessary program anymore. There are apps loike VLC media player that cna do EVERYTHING it does without conflicting with other apps like Flash Player.
With WIndows 8, Microsoft began embedding FlashPlayer themselves into Internet Explorer. Because of that, you cannot download and install it from here. You cannot uninstall it from Internet Explorer without removing a specific Windows Update first. And you cannot update it via this website. ONLY through Windows Update can Flash Player for Internet Explorer be updated.
That said, you probably DON'T have a virus that's causing the problems with Flash Player and Internet Explorer. Many, many websites are not "recognizing" the browser.
This is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released IE11 The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player.
So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

When I click file print on adobe reader, the print button is hidden by Windows 7 taskbar

Hi,
When I click File then Print, it brings up the print menu, but the print button is covered by the Windows 7 taskbar, and I can't click on the print button when I scroll down to it, nor can I re-size your Print Menu Window. I am able to print by pressing on the Enter button on my keyboard.

Try changing your screen resolution to something a bit larger. The system requirements call for at least a 1024x768 resolution to view everything properly.
Let us know how it goes!

Firefox Windows Won't Come Forward When Taskbar Button Is Clicked (Solution)

I posted this issue once before, but the thread was closed, so I am opening a new thread so that I can share the solution.
My problem was that many of my Firefox windows wouldn't come forward when I clicked their taskbar buttons. What that meant was that the content of those windows was permanently lost to me since there was no way to look at them. Reducing the number of windows by closing the ones I could access didn't seem to work.
After complaining here in the forum, I discovered that I had a virus on my computer. I believe it was a root-kit virus, but I don't remember for sure (I don't think the type of virus will have much meaning to most people anyway). Blocking windows and programs from opening is a common behavior of viruses. In fact, many viruses will prevent your anti-virus program from opening, so there is no way for you to scrub the virus from your computer.
All the anti-virus companies (AVG, Symantec, McAfee, etc.) now offer a service where one of their technicians will access your computer remotely and scrub any viruses from your computer. The cost is in the range of $100 to $150. I paid AVG $135 (I found out later that other companies were cheaper). The technician was in another country (the Philippines, I think). Despite that, the technician was very competent and did a good job of eliminating the virus. Once the virus was gone, all my windows opened without a problem. After this experience, I called around to the other companies and found that some of them use technicians in India and some in the Philippines.
So if you are having the problem of programs or windows that won't open, this is the solution.

Thanks for posting that solution!

Windows 7 Crashes/Freezes when playing ANY Video files

lets see can anyone get their head around this one as it is driving me round the bend.
So... I have a media centre PC connected to my HDTV by VGA cable. I ran the PC on XP for a long time but last December, I upgraded it to Windows 7
along with my laptop.
Cue 5 months of seamless media usage and network integration - it
worked like a dream and I played both HD and SD content with ease.
About two weeks ago, I was watching an HD '.mkv' file in Windows Media Centre and about 10 minutes into the video, the video file just Froze - both the video and the audio. I had to power down and restart the machine and started the video file again. About
5 minutes after re-starting the video file, it hung again (not at the same place in the video). I then went and watched the video on my laptop where
it worked fine.
A few days after this (first time I had used it again since it hung up) I began watching an SD '.avi' file. About 1 minute into the video the display lost it's signal (the little built in 'no signal' graphic came up) and after a further 15 seconds, the audio
cut out as well.
This latter behaviour is now happening every single time I try to watch any kind of SD or HD video of any file extention. This problem is also independant of what video player I use (windows media centre and windows media player classic) After a minute or so
the display cuts out and the audio quickly follows it.
Suffice to say, I was a little annoyed but knowing a good bit about computers I
decided to try and solve the problem taking the following steps.
1) I uninstalled all my codecs and reinstalled the latest version of the K-Lite Codec pack. The latest version has support for windows 7 so I doubt its a compatibility issue here. After doing this the problem still persisted, exactly the same as before.
2) I checked the date of the drivers for my video card (MSI nVidia 6200) and seen that they were dated sept 2009. I went onto the nVidia site and found the latest win7 drivers dated april 2010 - I installed these but still the problem is there.
3) I then thought, maybe its a problem with the actual video card hardware itself. When I built my machine the parts supplier accidentally
sent me two of the same video card so I swapped out the existing one for a brand spanking new version of the same card. The problem is still EXACTLY the same.
So yes -I am rather annoyed and frustrated at the moment as I have absolutely no idea what is wrong with the machine and how it went from working to not working almost overnight.
I'd like to add also that the display is perfect when doing anything else on the computer - I can surf, play youtube videos, listen to music etc and it is absolutely no problem.
Put on a video and it cuts out the display like I have explained.
halp.

Hello Tim,
I decided to do a clean install, a fresh new installation of windows and all its updates, I didn't get the option of
install SP1 yet.
After that I only installed Catalyst drivers: 11.5 and Realtek HD audio drivers, all downloaded on May 24 2011.
Then latest FFDShow and MPC-HC to test, both x64 versions Nothing else installed.
Only a fresh copy of windows with its updates and those mentioned drivers.
To my surprise, it happened a gain.
It still crashes after a while when playing MKV videos.
It's weird, because it doesn't happen with avi's or mp4's.
So, there must be something wrong with one of windows updates that creates this windows FREEZE.
Also there is no possibility to find out what error it is in "Event Viewer" as nothing gets recorded there. Anyone could
advise?
Thanks

Multiple windows/taskbar buttons

Acrobat X, Windows XP ...
I previously had Acrobat 6. When I would print multiple documents from another application to PDF, or open multiple PDF documents, they would all go to the same Acrobat display, and would be selectable in the "Windows" dropdown in Acrobat.
Now, in Acrobat X, when I print multiple documents to PDF, each one opens what looks like a separate Acrobat X instance, with a new button on the taskbar at the bottom of the Windows desktop ... needless clutter! If I open ten docs, I wind up with ten buttons.
Is there a way to make all documents just go to the same place as before, not spawning new taskbar buttons?
Thanks.

By the way, if you have Windows 7 I think you can tell it to group the separate windows into a single taskbar item, but they will still remain independent windows.

When a pop up window comes up it is - search bookmarks and history window! I cannot log into my bank as login button should open new window to log in but I get the search page. I cannot see larger images as again I get the search bookmarks and history pa

This question was solved.

When installing the audio driver, was it installed by following the prompts or in compatibility mode as outlined here?
Based on the Software and Drivers page for this unit, the unit was not tested and certified for Windows 8. This means that some functionality may not be the same since the unit was not designed for Windows 8. See this site for information and to find out if it has been tested for Windows 8.
If the sound driver has not been installed in compatibility mode, then I recommend using the Windows 7 64bit driver found here and using the linked steps above to install it in compatibility mode.
Let me know what happens.
