Unable to view windows in programs. intermittent problem

quite often I have to reboot or logout and login again to see windows in safari and other programs. I can run the program and am told that windows are open but still see nothing but the program menus in the title bar.
Anyone else have this problem?
Also had problems after turning on file vault. For some reason computer locked up during the first login. Seems to be working now although I find Leopard to be visibly slower than Panther OS (which I kept a backup of on an external drive... just in case)
during permissions scan I get lots of suido messages about files being modified and that they can't be changed. did an archive and install from panther and don't know if its because of changed I did in Panther to show extra menulets in the finder window etc.

    I am unable to view the full content of various web sites after purchasing Advanced System Care Pro. I was using the free version before with no problems. I cannot figure out if or which setting was changed. I tried doing a system restore but that did not work. I tried turning off all features of ASC pro but that did not work. Javascript is enabled. Please help.

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

  • Unable to view .wmf thumbnail pictures - Windows 8

    Hello,
    I am unable to view the thumbnail pictures of a Microsoft clipart image on my computer.  I have had this problem before and I can't remember where I found a quick little patch/download to fix this problem.
    Does any one know how to fix this problem or know where the patch is?   I have Windows 8.
    Thank you.

    The IE app does not allow most plugins so it cannot run silverlight, you will need to keep using the desktop version.

  • Unable to view files from windows share

    Hi guys,
    I am wondering if you can help me out. I have 10 mac ocnnected to a windows domain. Five machinies are OSX 10.5.8 and five are OSX 10.6.8. The problem I am having is I can connect to the windows share via smb but I am unable to view the files. I can connect the server and see the folder listings but I am unable to view the contents of each directory. The users permissions are fine as they can log into a windows PC an are able to access the files as needed. I have tried different user accounts and all are getting the same issue. Each account has admin rights as well. I was wondering if anyone else has seen this issue before?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Unable to view content on CD, Viewable in windows but not on Mac

    I am unable to view the contents on a cd I made a while ago on a MS machine.
    In finder the CD has two folders both are empty (mp3's) and under the folder it says no items.
    I can see the files on the ms machine and on my mac through a terminal shell.
    I could even copy files using terminal onto my mac but when I check them the files are smalller-under a meg.
    The cd is formatted in ISO 9660 juliet. These files are accessable in windows.
    Can someone explain this to me? I must have a bad setting because I searched this forum and found no posts related to my problem.

    Hi
    After applying the steps given by Steve Fan, to verify the indexing status, please follow these steps: -
    If the
    Indexing Status reports 0 items remaining and Instant Search is still not returning the correct search results, exit Outlook and restart your computer. When you start Outlook again, verify that Outlook is indexing your items
    properly by doing the following:
    On the
    Tools menu, point to Instant Search, and then click
    Indexing Status.
    Alternatively, click the arrow in the
    Instant Search pane, and then click Indexing Status on the menu.
    Verify that the number of items in the
    Indexing Status dialog box has increased. If the number has not increased, you must wait until indexing is complete for the results.
    If you are not getting results after restarting, the next step is to rebuild your search catalog. The search catalog is a file where all of your Outlook and Microsoft
    Windows items are indexed. To rebuild your search catalog, do the following:
    Exit Outlook.
    In Microsoft Windows, click the
    Start > Control Panel.
    Windows Vista: click
    System Maintenance > Indexing Options.
    Note: In the classic view, double-click
    Indexing Options.
    Microsoft Windows XP: Under
    See Also, click Other Control Panel Options, and then click
    Indexing Options.
    Note: In the Classic view, double-click
    Indexing Options.
    Click
    Advanced.
    Click Rebuild.
    Restart Outlook.

  • Adobe acrobat pro x change the program's default page display to single page view - Windows 8, HP La

    adobe acrobat pro x change the program's default page display to single page view - Windows 8, HP Laptop

    Since there were no answers, I will take a stab at a reponse. For the 2nd method, I suspect you could simply select the print or press job options to get the desired results or turn off "use local fonts" in Acrobat. If you check the font list, the fonts are probably not embedded and that is likely the problem.
    I noticed that you have both Reader and Acrobat installed and that might cause some conflict, but should not be the issue here. If you were to uninstall Reader, you would have to repair Acrobat. The conflict here is that you might have problems with the one opening when you want the other. If it works for you, then don't worry about it.
    For technique 1, I suspect you may be using IE 9 that has apparently been a problem since it came out. I have refused to install it. However, it may simply be that PDF Maker does not work correctly with your browser, or got deactivated and needs to be allowed to run in your browser (IE I am assuming).

  • Just purchased and installed photoshop and everytime i try to open it it says "windows has encountered a problem and must close the program" anyone else have this problem?

    I have just purchased the photography package on my windows 8 computer and everytime I open photoshop an error message pops up saying that windows has encountered a problem and needs to close the program. I am really frustrated that this is happening after I purchased this plan and would like to be able to use the product I have purchased

    +1 to Chris' assessment.
    Keep in mind that it's your responsibility to provide a problem-free working environment on your computer for Photoshop, and system software (such as display drivers) can have problems.
    Look in your Windows Event Logs (specifically, your Application Log) for the info requested above on the specific crashes.

  • Mail won't display the viewer window, and it will not close (force quit does not show in menu bar).  Can't shut down to reboot because the open mail program prevents it.   Any advice?

    Mail does not show the viewer window even when new viewer window is cliced.  I tried to close mail and reopen, but it will not close, and force quit option does not appear in window bar.   I tried to shut down the computer and reboot, but it cannot close because of open mail program it says.    Help!

    Many thanks.  Once I was able to close mail, it reopened and behaved quite normally.  Thank you.  I'll remember the option quit for force quite!

  • I am unable to view google ads running alongside and under videos on YouTube. This is only a problem when I use Firefox. If I use another browser, I can see the ads. I do not have adlock as it does not appear in my plug-ins/add ons. Please help..

    I have been using Firefox for about two years. For about a month now I have been unable to view any Google advertisements that run on YouTube pages alongside and under videos. This is important for my business. I would like to stay with Firefox, but this is only a problem when I use Firefox and is not a problem with Internet Explorer or Google Chrome as I checked. I tried uninstalling Firefox and all plugs ins and add ons and then reinstalling it. This did not work. Firefox seems to be blocking the Google codes that enable the ads to run on the pages. I look forward to your help. Thank you.

    CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back.  So probably won't run on modern operating systems.  If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.
