  • When downloading a file, if I right-click and select new the submenu is not displayed

    I have Firefox 12 installed; running XP SP3. Options/General/Always ask me where to save files is selected. If I download a file and select save file, I will get a save file to dialog. If I right-click in the dialog and select new, there is no submenu displayed. As a consequence, I cannot create a new folder in which to save the selected file. New will simply try to create a shortcut.

    That Save As dialog that you see is part of Windows Explorer, including the contextual menu including "New". So, this sounds more like you may have a problem at a more fundamental operating system level, because Firefox (as far as I know) doesn't do anything, or even can, modify the content of the context menus of an Explorer window.
    Could you provide a screenshot of what you see to make sure we're talking about the same thing here? Thanks!

    Unusual to be getting a DEP in those circumstances. (Still, I haven't been around all that much in recent times. So the world may have changed.)
    What seems most likely is that we've got an iTunes preference file gone bad in some way. So I'd try the "Remove iTunes preferences files" section in the "User-specific troubleshooting" section from the following document. (Note you'll have to make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is set on the PC in order to find the pref files.)

  • Adobe Application Manager Won't Open and CC Desktop failed to install

    I am running Win 7 Ultimate. Adobe Application Manager Won't Open and CC Desktop failed to install on my computer after I signed up for Adobe CC tonight. I am currently using the CS5 suite (perpetual license) and do not want to uninstall any of the programs until I am successfully running the Adobe CC versions. The AAM gives me an error message saying that it failed to open when I select it, and the creative cloud installer fails to install. I have tried restarting my computer. Help? This is very frustrating. I am a student and use this software on a daily basis, and can't afford to not have these programs available when I need them.

  • Is it safe to download adobe flashplayer from the internet?T

    Is it safe to download adobe flashplayer from the internet. I am new in the Apple environment and my MacBook asks me whether I am sure I want to proceed?
    Thanks,

    If you never installed Flash before you should Cancel and download it directly here
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Once it's installed it will perform a update check when you use Flash and a gray window will popup letting you know to update the browser plug-in called Flash.
    If you see such a window, you should quit your browser(s) immediatly and if the window remains, proceed with the update.
    You will have to quit all open browser(s) anyway to install the update.
    You will need to provide your password for the update.
    There is a tiny check box on the left that needs to be clicked if the "install" button doesn't seem to work.
    If you don't want to update Flash, you should remove it from your computer as older versions are a very high security risk.
    It is not unusual, to have what may appear to be, many updates to Flash. It is updated often for security issues. As well as Silverlight.
    Bookmark this link to check your browser plug in status.
    https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
    Note: The white window with "Adobe Flash Player Install Manager" with the "Deny" and "Allow" buttons you will not see, that's security software called LittleSnitch, that I have installed to warn me of any unusual outgoing Internet connections.

    Cannot download Adobe Flashplayer, window opens and stops at 25%.  Safari 8.0.4, MacBook Air 2013.  How do I update Flash?

    Install Flash Player in Safe Mode.
    Shut down the computer.
    Press the power button. Immediately after you hear the startup sound, press and hold the Shift key.
    The Shift key should be pressed as soon as possible after startup,but not before the startup sound.
    Release the Shift key when you see the Apple logo on the screen. Startup will take longer than usual.
    Login to your account. Launch Safari.
    Enter this  address in the Safari address bar manually.
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Follow the prompts. Install it.
    Once done, quit Safari and restart the computer from  in the menu bar.
    Allow  Plug-ins
    Safari > Preferences > Security
    Internet Plug-ins >  "Allow  plug-ins"
    Enable it.

    Why can't I download adobe flashplayer?

    I have a i5 iMac with MacOS 10.9, Firefox, Chrome and Safarie.  My systems says there is an update to Flashplayer.   I click on OK and it sends me to the Adobe page where there is a button to download Flashplayer.   I click on the button and it takes me to www.adobe.com.   When I place the cursor over the link Firefox show the link as www.adobe.com and no file to download.   How can I update Flashplayer?   Is your page link broken?

  • How do you fix Error 1324 when downloading Adobe Reader?

    "Error 1324. The path My Pictures or the volume is invalid. Please enter it again." appears after 96% of download occurs when downloading Adobe Reader onto my home computer Windows XP Home Ed. v2 sp3 64 processor. Tried downloading again and same thing happens - used Windows Internet Explorer as browser. Any ideas on what to do next?  Will try downloading using Google Chrome to see if that works. First time using the forums - think  I need to move it to Adobe Reader Forum
    Message was edited by: denm

    Thanks Pat W. I stand corrected. The error report occured during installation. My Pictures and the Adobe folders reside in My Documents - the path(?) C:Documents and Settings/Denise/My Documents/My Pictures. The Adobe folder also resides in the My Documents folder but not within the My Pictures folder. Just wondering where the Adobe folder should be.   If I have an external drive on and a backup copy of Adobe is in it, would that be what you mean by a folder in "My Documents" is pointing to somewhere other than the C: drive? I have turned off my external drive and retried the download. Not successful. Will try your last tip re: the support site from microsoft. Thanks for any other clarification you can provide.
