View Settings Resetting

Ref: Windows 7 Pro SP1 and current version of iTunes
I launch itunes; sometimes I get the window that request you acknowleged the use of the software; Then when itunes opens
NO memu bar; No view settings
So I go to the little window Icon in the uppper left hand corner; and select "Show Menu Bar"
Then I go to View and select "Show Status Bar"
Then i go to View again and select "Show Side Bar"
Then I go to View for third time and Select "Show up next"
Now I am ready to use itunes...No problems using the applications.
Note: All the items in the Side Bar; i.e. Library; Playlists etc. are retained.
Upon completion of the session, I close itunes....
Next session...open itunes now maybe or maybe not itunes has saved my view settings; if settings are not saved, I have to go thur the view process again! I have found this behaviour is hit and miss and bloody annoying!
I MAY expect this behaviour if a new version was downloaded; but you would think they could keep a file in itunes that retains these settings. I have been unable to find any consistance in this behaviour .
Question:
Is the resetting of view settings, as I have indicated above, normal behaviour?
Is there somewhere in this application that I can save these settings?

Hi,
A view is a hidden message in your PST file. Try to repair your PST file using scanpst.exe:
Click Start, and then point to Find or to
Search, depending upon your operating system.
In the Search for files or folders named box, type scanpst.exe
Double click the Scanpst.exe file to open the Inbox Repair Tool.
Type the path and the file name of the personal folders (.pst) file or click
Browse to locate the file by using the Windows file system.
Click Start.
If the problem persists, we may try to create a new PST file. When creating a new Outlook profile, a new pst is created for Inbox. So, create a new Outlook profile
to test the results. For detailed steps, refer to:

How do I reset the default viewing settings in Acrobat 8.0?

I messed with my view settings in Acrobat 8.0- now all my PDF's can not be viewed. They come up as grey screens. I just want to go back to the defult settings that the program came with. Help please??

Thank you SO very much!

Photoshop CC keeps changing my windows folder view settings

Every time I save a file from PS into a particular folder on my desktop, the view settings for that folder get reset to defaults.
For example, I like the view setting to be on "details" and to be sorted in descending order by "date modified" (not 'date', which means i have to uncheck the 'date' field and check the 'date modified' field each time this happens)
I open and close this folder from my desktop many times a day and the view stays the same, but as soon as I save a file out of PS and navigate to that folder from the save dialog box the view is reset to "thumbnails" again; which would be ok if it only showed up that way while in PS but once this happens it changes the view even for when I open the folder from the desktop.
This does not happen with any other program, only PS. I'm using windows 7 pro 64-bit.
It's worth noting that if I change the view settings from withing the save dialog box, those changes are not reflected when I open the folder from desktop.
Also, once I make the changes, PS will keep the settings for all subsequent save operations, even after closing and re-opening the program. But once I reboot I'm back to square one.

Photoshop has no control over that. That is an OS setting, and open/save are OS dialogs (not really controlled by Photoshop).

I am trying to find "compatibility view settings" in order to add a website that I need to use for work. PLEASE HELP!

I received a "how to" sheet of how to be able to view this website but it wants me to download Internet Explorer (excuse me while i say yuck!)...
So the directions state: Under "Tools" click on "compatibility view settings". Where is says "add this website" write in the website and then click add and close. Log off and reboot.
I live on Mozilla on all my devices. I recommend it to anyone who has not been introduced yet. I cringe to think of being forced to use internet explorer!!!
Thank you for all you do!!!

hello ETRU, "compatibility view" is a concept of internet explorer that other browsers do not have. do you have any particular problem viewing it with firefox?

"view content preview in thumbnails" option is not available in view settings for "finder" for one user

"view content preview in thumbnails" option is not available in view settings for "finder" for one user

I hope this discussion can be revived. I have the same problem. There seem to be quite a few Japanese sites that don't bother specifying their encoding. Perhaps they are older and from a time when it was not necessary to adhere to standards. Examples: http://www1.plala.or.jp/CUE/cave_yozawa.html, http://chigaku.web.fc2.com/saitama/sanchi/youzawa/youzawa.html. Happy to upload screenshots, but how?
Is there a way to tell Safari what encoding to use if the web page fails to do that?

When I open TB, under "Accounts", it only shows the option "Create a new account". Option: "View settings for this account" is NOT shown.

When I open TB, I no longer see any information about the TB account I've used for years. Instead, the main menu shows only "Accounts" -- "Create a new account - Email, Chat, Newsgroups, Feeds". Option: "View settings for this account" is NOT shown.
Also the main menu does NOT show "Email - Read messages, Write a New Message" or "Advanced features", etc..
The actual emails pertaining to the TB account I've used for years are still present under the "Users --> xxxxyyyy --> AppData --> Roaming --> Thunderbird' folder.

Problems with Folder view settings and file association in Windows 8.1

My Windows 8.1 64 bit started forgetting the view settings from a folder.So if I go in a folder and I set it to List-View for example,whenever
I close that folder and I reopen it the view is set automatically to Details view.And this applies to every folder in my computer except Desktop.It drives me crazy,especially in my pictures folders.
Also with this problem another one came.I can't set a program to open some files,so the file associations for some files is broken.For example
i can't set qTorrent to open torrent files.It just won't open them and the files apear as white documents just like I hadn't had a Torrent program installed already.I find it weird that both problems appeared together.
I previously had to reinstall windows on my machine,because of this problems.It worked normal at the begging,but today these problems appeared
again.
I tried scanning SFC
Scan with no result.
I hope I will get a fix here.
Thanks.
Update:I also just discovered that Metro apps are not working...what the heck its wrong with my windows.

Hey thanks for the reply ,but I got a fix for everything.Apparently the problem is in the registry.
So If the problem began recently, you can try this to fix it :
Press Windows Key + R to show the Run box, type RSTRUI and press enter.
Choose a recent date and time from before the problem beginning (such as the day before yesterday) and click Next.
The system will restore registry settings from that day, and restart.
If you do this however,all the programs you had installed after the restore point date will
be DELETED (same with any settings changes made before that date),so be sure to backup things.Hope this will help someone someday. .

Acrobat 7 Pro, Script to Automate "Initial View" Settings

Can you create an Applescript that let's you batch define Acrobat's 'Initial View' settings under the Document Properties of an existing PDF?
I am not familiar with scripting language and enable the UI feature of Script Editor, but it didn't seem to record my actions. Photoshop's Actions don't allow me to define these specific settings.
Dual 1.8 G5 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Thanks, Bernd. I forgot to mention in the original post that the "Restore last view settings when reopening documents" option IS disabled (unchecked), both in Acrobat and Reader. The behavior described occurs with this option disabled.

Action Wizard - modify "Initial View" settings

I am trying to figure out if there is a way to change the "Initial View" settings in the document properties using the Action Wizard.
For accessibility reasons I need the Document Properties > Initial View > Window Options > Show settings to "Document Title" as opposed to the default "File Name".
Any suggestions? i cant find a way to change this using the "Create New Action" options
Thanks.

It's under Document Processing - Set Open Options - Display Document Title.

Disabled last view settings

I am trying to display a pdf from simple html
to a specific page such as <a href="test.pdf#page=55&view=Fit">Page 55</a><br>
This works fine but if I change to other pages from within the IE Browser window, exit and return utilizing this href I get returned to the last page viewed and not page 55 as needed.
If I use another href to say page 100 and then return to the href of page 55 I get the expected pages. Problem is when I change from within the browser and return to the same href.
I have checked the original PDF preferences and last view settings is not checked.
Using IE7
Adobe Reader 9.4.0
Adobe Acrobat 8.2.2 to create the document

I am using Mac 10.9, by the way.

Prevent pdf initial view settings from disabling my menu bar

Some pdf files are configured with initial view settings to remove my menu bar and other toolbars. This is incredibly intrusive, and difficult to get those back unless you know the correct keyboard shortcuts. Most users don't.
So please tell me how to permanently disable pdf files from asserting their own initial view settings on my viewing environment. I do not want to permit them to take over my window and get rid of my menu bars. I find that behaviour incredibly annoying.
Thanks

Sorry, you can set the default view parameters only for documents that the author has not specified a view option for.
You might be able to write a plug-in that could change the open document action.
Have you tried contacting the authors about this issue?

Initial View settings not always working

A user recently reported this problem:
She opens a PDF for the first time through our website by click a link on an HTML page in IE. The PDF opens in a new browser window to the default view and first page, as specified in the initial view settings.
She advances several pages into the file to a page with links.
She clicks one of these links, which takes her to another page in the file.
She closes the browser window.
She returns to the original web page and clicks the link to the PDF again. The PDF opens to the LAST page viewed -- not the first page as specified in the initial view settings.
I'm seeing the same behavior on my PC. The versions of Acrobat Pro and Reader I have are 8.1.3. I've tried turning on and off the web browser settings in Acrobat and Reader (Allow fast web view and Allow speculative downloading ...), but I'm getting the same results.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rob Miles

Thanks, Bernd. I forgot to mention in the original post that the "Restore last view settings when reopening documents" option IS disabled (unchecked), both in Acrobat and Reader. The behavior described occurs with this option disabled.

Outlook view settings not saved

I have one user who looses all View settings when restarting Outlook. Occasionally they will save, but it is very rare. Setting the Reading Pane to Off is one good example of a setting that does not save.
The creation of new Views is also not saved. After restarting Outlook, the new View does not appear in Manage All Views.
I have tried creating a new Outlook profile and I'm told that Office 2013 C2R has been re-installed since this problem started.
Outlook 2013 Click-To-Run via an Office 365 E3 subscription. Exchange Online mailbox. Windows 7 Pro 32-bit.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Basically, Outlook view settings are stored in the default data file. If the data file is corrupt or recreated every time Outlook restarts, the view settings may be not saved.
Does the user use Outlook with Cached Exchange mode enabled? If so, please go to
C:\Users\%username%\Documents\Outlook Files and check if you have multiple .ost files in the folder.
In addition, you may try to switch to turn off Cached Exchange mode and then test this issue again.
Please let me know the result.

VIEW settings not saved in FINDER

Lately my FINDER for viewing files does not save the settings I check in the VIEW menu. It states in the MAC HELP: "If you choose icon or list view, the Finder saves your view settings. The next time you open the window you will see the same view settings you chose previously." After I turn off the computer, the next time I restart it the settings are lost. I have updated the "Permissions" in the Disk Utility but it did not help. Do you have any other suggestions?

I opened your "User Tip", Scott, and on the second page it gives information about the VIEW settings preferences. The NOTE in red letters seemed to have been my problem. It states "do not at any time use the"apply to all windows" option in VIEW OPTIONS and make sure this button is disabled. Somehow mine was enabled. I disabled it, logged out, logged in again, restarted my machine, the VIEW SETTINGS held. I then shut the computer down and when I restarted it today, all VIEW SETTINGS held. Thanks for the tip.
