What's with the micro-pages??

I understand each of the following:
1) maximized window
2) minimized window
3) tabbed page
4) custom-sized window
What I do NOT UNDERSTAND is after Restoring (Maximizing) a Minimized window in Task bar, having to scan desktop for the "micro-page" (in upper LH corner) resulting from Restore command.
My two (2) questions:
A) What's with THAT?
B) What's the FIX?

Firefox usually tries to remember the size of the last closed "restored" window, so if you stretch the window out to a more normal size and make sure to close that one last, hopefully it will stick.
If it doesn't stick, one of Firefox's settings files may have become corrupted. Renaming that settings file will cause Firefox to return to its default window sizes and also will clear any toolbar customizations.
If you would like to try this:
(1) Open your personal settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
(2) Switch back to Firefox and exit the program (e.g., Firefox > Exit or File > Exit)
(3) Wait a few moments for Firefox to finish updating files in your settings folder, then rename '''localstore.rdf''' to something else, like localstore-bad.rdf or localstore.old. Alternately, you can delete the file.
(4) You're done with your profile folder and you can restart Firefox now.
Does it solve the window size problem?

    What's with the banner ads at the top of almost every page that my FF 8 opens? The previous versions didn't have them. [http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/22639/Screenshot1.jpg Screenshot 1]

  • I am trying to save a document with the new pages and it will only save as a zip file any ideas on how to change this?

    I am trying to save a document with the new Pages and it is only saving as a ZIP file anyone know how to fix this or choose a different file type?

    Take a look at the FileSelector
    First make sure the FileSelector is expanded so you can see the directory and sidebar. That's what the little disclosure triangle up by the filename is for. Once the FS has been expanded to look like the above picture, look to see what subdirectory has been selected. Use the SideBar to select an appropriate one.

  • What's with the non-existant free trial download for Photoshop?

    What's with the non-existant free trial download for Photoshop?  You click on "Download free trial" and it takes you to a page that takes you to a forum… nothing happens.  I've done this about 6 times on two browsers.  Of course, there's no help from Adobe, so I'm trying this forum.  Thanks!

    Thanks very much for a prompt reply!  Much appreciated. Unfortunately, that's exactly the page I was on. And I used both Firefox and Safari and got the same page, with the same nothing...
    As this forum doesn't allow attachments, I'll cut and paste the page here (there's not much):
    Keep learning
    Whether you're new or a pro, we're always making Photoshop better.
    Learn more with these tutorials.

    That's all that's on the page.  No buttons, URLs, menus… nothing.  And just to confirm, the URL  is as you gave: https://creative.adobe.com/products/download/photoshop
    Something's fishy...

  • Open Word docs with the new Pages?

    Pages does not open. I had the new one installed but apparently had the old one still up. How can I open Word docs with the new Pages?

    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5.1 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:
    http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewforum.php?f=22&sid=3527487677f0c 6fa05b6297cd00f8eb9&mforum=iworktipsntrick
    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • Where's the music on iTunes, and what's with the quality and compatibility?

    I'm just curious as to whether anyone else has had this issue or not: Does anyone else feel like, after searching for specific songs, there's just little to nothing in the database? I feel like most of my searches are pointless because iTunes has either no data of my requested search and/or only has bits and pieces of it.
    Another question I have: After having a slightly successful search, why am I left with low quality tunes? I mean, you can hear the compression... badly. (I know it's not my speakers)
    Last question: If I'm paying for the song, shouldn't I be allowed to download a universal file? iTunes uses a unique format that no other application uses. In other words, more money has to be spend for m4a to mp3 converters (unless you're a cracker [not a racial comment]).
    To me, I value iTunes and its team, so I'm sorry if I've offended anyone. I understand there are contracts involved with the artists and it's hard to please ALL of the subscribers. But seriously, where's the music on iTunes, and what's with the quality and compatibility?
    Custom   Windows XP Pro   Negative, I am a meat popsicle.

    Today I thought of finally putting lyrics on my songs. So I've been quite some time busy doing that, then I tried it on my iPad (2) and I can't find them. Just as the people above say. Then I went to search where I can find them and I found this page. I'm really dissapointed and I don't understand how something like this could happen. So I hope Apple will fix this soon.
    (I'm just posting this so that Apple will do something about it)

  • If it is possible a scripting can making contents of a book with the correct page numbers?

    I was wondering if it is possible a scripting can making contents of a book with the correct page numbers.
    I know indesign has already a function that can making contents in a same file, as long as some paragraph styles were indicated to make the contents.
    But if the title on the master page, it doesn’t work.
    If it is possible to make it happen on a whole book, in spite of what I choosing title was on the master page?
    Can somebody help me?
    Thanks!

    I work on one book which has 40 topic that follow immediately, each topic has a title, socalled section headed. They were put on the master page. What I want is the section headed and the each topic's starting number to make a contents.
    Each time, I work on this kind of book, I have to copy them 40 times to make a contents page, and I have to writing down the each section's starting page number and then type in the contents.
    I was wondering if it is a function can help me and let me easily to make a contents.
    can somebody help me
    thanks!

  • Can I prevent my book opening with the contents page?

    After the intro video I would like my book to open with the first page full screen, not with the contents. Is this possible?
    Thanks

    I have noticed that most of the books I've bought on the ibook store start on the first page rather than the contents, what program are they built with?
    You can create a standard epub with many programs. InDesign is probably the most popular, but you can also use Pages. Apple even makes a template available:

  • Why won't my old Pages docs open with the old Pages application?

    I have a whole suite of complex documents created with the old Pages - which will not open with the old Pages application. Why not? The new app appears not to have things I need - like autoflow to complex linked boxes for example, or easy kerning.
    Is there a workaround to so that I can access my documents without having to redo them? I don't want to use the new app. It's hideous, lumpen and unsophisticated. Why has a decent product been replaced with crap?

    Can you clarify that?
    What version is "the old Pages"?
    What version of OSX?
    What happens when you try and open an old document with the "old Pages"?
    Are you really saying that Pages '08/'09 won't open Pages 5 documents?
    Because that is not a surprise, you need to Export the newer version documents back.

  • Help with the Photos Page?

    I posted about this problem a little time ago, but now am not sure what to do.
    When I get a photo page up and place by web banner, it is out of sync with all my other pages - and it shows.
    I compared it with setting the page up with a blank page and I can see that the problem is that whilst the text box in the blank page will move up and down and adjust individually, the text box in the header on the photo page will not move individually. When I grab the bottom to move it, the whole box moves, instead of up and down.
    How can I solve this and what can I do? I would like to use the photo page to display some diagrams that I have and this would make a better job of it than a blank page.
    Any ideas anyone? I have come to the end of everything I have tried to do. I did try altering the size, but then I had problems with the navigation bar. The banner was in sync, but then the navigation bar was out with all the rest. I am getting fed up with this.
    Help?

    Well, I had already taken the navigation bar off display because it was in the wrong place for me, so I created my own instead. I have been back and unchecked the box to include in navigation menu on all the pages and tried the photo page again and it is still slightly out with all the other pages, but just not as much this time.
    With the blank pages, you seem to be able to drag the edges of the text box and they will move independently, however, when you try the same thing on the photos page it won't do the same thing. It moves as a whole rather than individually, so that means that the text moves too and once that has happened there is no way to alter that. You can't click the box and move the text up and down. The only way is to move the box.
    I like to keep my site looking tidy and with all the pages roughly the same, so this is annoying. I don't have photos, but diagrams and they do look better displayed on a photo page. They are spaced and sized accurately and more so than I can do them myself on a blank page.
    Is there any way that you can put the photo template onto a blank page?
    No everyone wants to put photos on a website or use photo page banners.

  • Why does safari 5.1 open with the last page from previous session?

    I don't want Safari 5.1 to open with the last page from the previous session.  How do I stop it?

    I too would like to manually or automatically open the windows and tabs I had open from the previous session, but I want to configure this per application.  In a browser for instance, I can have many windows and tabs open and it can take a lot of time to refresh them all. I would like to manually pick the windows/tabs I want to reopen. Before Lion I could restore the last session manually and I liked that ability. Firefox has a plugin for this And what if I reboot with no internet access, they all time out. With a word processor, spreadsheet, or xcode on the other hand, I like to start where I left off. Everything comes from local disk so the restart is fast. I want to control this by app, not globally. Sometime Apple can really be blind to the real needs of users, and that is to configure their envoronment the way the user needs, not the way Apple envisions the need of users.
    So Apple, please give ME the opportunity to choose the apps that auto reload the last sesion and give me a manual way to reload the last session on all apps that qualify.
