When downloading/uploading any file with Firefox, Finder shows date but not time

On my iMac, as I either upload or download a file using Firefox after installing Lion, the Finder window that opens for me to tell it where to either download the file to or upload it from, shows dates of all the existing docs there, but not the time. How can I make it show the time as well?

I have found the problem.
A download manager had been installed for a specific website and it was butting in all the time. Even after removing it with 'Add or remove software' it still had its hooks into the system and it was impossible to download anything as it now would not run.
Had to do an XP 'System restore' before I could get rid of it.
The offending program was MD_setup.exe size 3,045KB from the themediadownloader.com

  • When I open .txt files with firefox all underscores disappear. How do I fix this?

    I have a list of websites in a .txt file and they all contain underscores. When I open the file with firefox all underscores turn into spaces, so that the links don't actually work.

    Can you post a short excerpt of this text file?
    Note that you usually need an extension to open links in a text file via a left-click with the mouse.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • Problems with downloading dmg.gz files with Firefox

    I've noticed some problems where Firefox has problems trying to download dmg.gz files, and it will spit out a bunch of garbled "code" to the screen instead of downloading the file. I tried the same file, just as a dmg file, and Firefox downloaded it just fine. Any ideas on what is going wrong here? Is this some limitation with Firefox and not understanding dmg.gz files, or is the disk image not being created and compressed properly, or is this a matter on the server that would have to be fixed?
    I haven't noticed this problem of trying to download dmg.gz files with other browsers like Safari or OmniWeb.

    I don't know where the filename->filetype mapping is in Firefox, but I do know that the popup menu on links includes a "Save link as..." item. So command-click or hold down the mouse button for a while or right-click on one of the links that causes problems and select that item. That will give you a standard "save as" dialog box and you can save the file. This trick works for any link and any filetype.

  • Finder shows some but not all files in a folder

    In some circumstances, Finder only shows some (but not all) of the files in a folder. Why?
    I notice this with Excel autosave files in the Office 2011 Autorecovery folder (Macintosh HD ▸ Users ▸ Conor ▸ Library ▸ Application Support ▸ Microsoft ▸ Office ▸ Office 2011 AutoRecovery). In my case, Finder shows 34 files but "ls" in a Terminal window reports 40 files. The missing files do not start with a period (.) and have the same permissions as other files that show in Finder (-rw-r--r--@ 1 <myname>  staff). Here's the last four lines of "ls -al" - the first two appear in Finder, but not the last two:
    -rw-r--r--@  1 myname  staff    55296  8 Oct  2013 Word Work File D_1239425731.tmp
    -rw-r--r--@  1 myname  staff    55296  8 Oct  2013 Word Work File D_1240072173.tmp
    -rw-r--r--@  1 myname  staff    52796 13 Feb 11:08 safe1.xlk
    -rw-r--r--@  1 myname  staff    95320 12 Mar 16:06 safe2.xlk
    I have tried copying files from this folder to another folder, and/or changing their names. They still do not appear in Finder, nor are they visible in the File Open dialog of applications, even when the dialog is listing other files in that directory - but if I manually type the name into the File Open dialog, the app manages to find and open the file.
    If I Spotlight-search for the file name, or search in Finder, without specifying that specific directory ("This Mac"), the file is not found, but if I direct the Finder search at that particular directory, then the search returns the relevant files.
    So: why does Finder hide certain files when showing a folder, even though it can find and show those files if you specifically ask for them?
    Now using OSX 10.10 (Yosemite), but I'm pretty sure I noticed this on OSX 10.8 as well.

    So simple - thanks. I'd not been aware of the hidden flag, and now I've found the -O option on ls to display it.
    Follow-on question: I now see that you can change the system-wide defaults to display hidden files with this...
         defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -boolean true ; killall Finder
    ...but is there a way to specify this on a per folder basis? I'm happy enough to hide hidden files in general, but it would be nice if I could set an attribute/flag/whatever on the Office AutoRecovery directory that told Finder "in this folder, always display hidden files". Can I do this?

  • I have suddenly unable to upload any files through FIrefox

    I have been unable to upload files on Firefox and Chrome. This happened suddenly.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • Cannot download or save files with firefox

    I try to download attachments from various emails, or updates off of various sites but the download/save window pops up for a second and goes away. I can access the same things just fine using IE or Chrome, but it will not work with firefox.
    I've tried to fix by disabling the pop up blocker, but that didnt work. The save as box still flashes on the screen and then disappears
    I am able to access the attachments on my work computer using firefox, so its some settings issue with my home system...but I have no idea what it could be.
    I have not changed anything nor installed any new software that would have started this issue....

  • I can access my college website with firefox on a PC but not a Mac.

    The message I get when I try to access my college website is:
    Server not found. Firefox can't find the server at www.ccccd.edu.
    * Check the address for typing errors such as
    ww.example.com instead of
    www.example.com
    * If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
    connection.
    * If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
    that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://www.ccccd.edu/

    The key to what you seem to want to do is to be able to get Apple's Time Capsule router to "join" the network that your Conceptronic router.  I believe that works with some third-party routers, but I've never seen a list of those that work in such a configuration and I have no experience with Conceptronic equipment.
    You might be better off with a Network-Attached Storage (NAS) device instead of a Time Capsule.

  • Select formula works with one set of data but not another??

    Post Author: rkckjk
    CA Forum: Formula
    I have the folloing Select formula:{Sheet1_.Assign Group History} = '{"COMPUTER OPERATIONS"}' and{Sheet1_.Resolved By Group} = "COMPUTER OPERATIONS"That I'm using to select records from an Excel spreadsheet. It works fine with the Jan. 2008 spreadsheet file: Test MTTR Jan 2008.xlsbut not with the Feb. 2008 spreadsheet: Test MTTR Feb 2008.xlsWhen I use the Feb. 2008 file I get this error:"Query Engine Error:'Error code: 0x800a06ff Source: DAO.Recordset Description: this expression is typed incorrectly, or it is too complex to be evaluated."Basically both Excel files are in the same format but have different data in them. I don't understand why Jan's works, but not Feb's???
    Since, I can't upload the two files without contacting the system administrator, maybe someone can help me debug the error code or how to debug this error using another method or idea??

    see what is causing your problem. it sounds like some data in the xls file is in an incorrect format.

  • I can't print web downloads, specifically pdf files, with Firefox.

    I get an error message if I try and look at the page in print preview which says: " Couldn’t open the file. It may be corrupt or a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize. " I can print the same pages in Safari. The only remedy I can see so far is to abandon Firefox for any online transactions and move to Safari.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 4
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 5
    Do as in Step 3 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • Adobe Reader docs appear washed out and faint with Firefox 6.0.1, but not with Internet Explorer. Running Windows 7

    The PDF docs opened in Firefox are very light and the color of print is multicolored shaded. Different parts of display different shades of any color but black. Just loaded newest Adobe Reader, did not help. Previously running Reader 9. Haven't had a problem till Firefox 6. If I fool with the Window Color in 7 I can effect the PDF doc. Lowering saturation level to nothing helps, but doesn't fix problem.

  • I need to upload a pdf with more than 500 fields, but not all need to be registered.

    We are working on a pdf to send to our customers. The form has more than 500 fields but we only need to register some of them, the other fields will be filled in the pdf, saved and sent bak to us. Is there any way to do that?
    Thanks in advance.

    I am sorry but there is no way to designate some fields for online collection and others not.

    A few times a week

    Firefox is shutting down windows I want to remain open. Example: I am done viewing one window. I click the X to shut the window and it shuts two windows. Every single time, attempt to close one windows, two windows close. Lately, I have been opening several windows with nothing but google search, just so it will shut that window and not something else I want to remain open. I could understand this if I was using tabs, but I am not. This has been going on for over two weeks. I don't like going back to history to open a window, I did not want closed in the first place. Isn't that what 'Windows' is all about? Any ideas?
