Where's the drop-down with "Recent places" in "Open File" dialogue?

Hi,
Until Mountain Lion, all "Open file" dialogue boxes included at the top a drop-down list with higher-level locations as welll as "recent places" - folders that were recently used to open files.
In apps such as Smultron, this is hugely efficient and I would say the vast majority of the file I open, I access via that drop-down.
Now, in apps that support iCloud, the UI of the "Open file" dialogue has changed significantly - with that drop-down now completely missing!!!
I am actually really really upset about this feature being removed. Is there ANY way to bring it back? I waste so much time now in opening files, it's ridiculous.
Thanks,
Biranit

Wierdly the only way I have found to bring this essential piece of the open file dialog box back is to disable icloud "Docuemetns & Data". Then hey presto the view controls are back on the top and the drop-down returns.
...but you don't have icloud documents any more
Sounds like a wierd omission in Mountain Lion if you ask me. I use that drop-down all the time...

I am using Windows XP and just installed Elements 12. When I try to select a different brush or shape the drop down list will not stay open long enough to select a different item. I have used Elements 9 for awhile and have not had this problem

It would appear that you are destined for the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum since your question is related to Photoshop Elements and not Premiere Elements which is the focus program where you have posted.
But, while the arrangements are being made, here are a few things for you to think about if you have not already
1. Reset Tools - Select Brush Tool, then
2. Delete Settings File
Go to Full Editor/Edit Menu/Preferences/General and click on the option "Reset Preferences on Next Launch".
We will be watching for your progress.
Thank you.

Where is the drop down list with "edit web part" for a list??

In Sharepoint 2010, there was a drop down list to the far right of a list. One of the options was to Edit Web Part. In Sharepoint 2013, I can't find the drop down list. Nothing is to the right of my list and mouse overs down't reveal
anything. I am trying to get to that area to change my toolbar type. Any clues as to where the "edit web part" has gone to?

I've been able to edit Web Part properties for weeks, but a few days ago, I could no longer do it, either by using the checkbox in the upper right corner of the web part or by using Web Part Properties in the Web Part tab. It's greyed out.
Then yesterday I could do it again and today I can't. An intermittent problem!
No one has changed any Sharepoint Admin settings.
Anyone have any ideas? They would be greatly appreciated.

Where is the drop down arrow next to the back and forward buttons that provided a list of previously viewed web pages?

before firefox 4.0 i was able to go straight to a page several pages back by clicking the drop down arrow, then clicking the desired site address. now i have to click the back button over and over until i reach the desired site. what a pain! absence of this feature alone makes me want to go back to version 3.6XXX

I was also desperate no to find my arrow after updating Firefox so I did some research --which by the way is quite difficult when you do not know what to call that arrow-- but thankfully I arrived here fairly quickly.
It saves me half an hour of research, so thanks ^^
I never would have guessed that you had to right-click... I tried it a couples of times and have to agree with gk2011, it is not very convenient.
Well, I suppose I shall try the addon then.

Where has the drop down button for page history gone from next to the Forward/Back page buttons?

in previous versions of Firefox(and most other Browsers) there is a drop down next to the back/forward page buttons, that shows the last 10 of so pages browsed in the current tab......
has this feature been removed from Firefox 4 and why, or is there a way to enable it?
Currently using Firefox 4 on a Macbook running OSX 10.5.8

You can get the drop down list by either control-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

In navigation bar the drop down menu is not holding open when trying to select item - ONLY in Firefox.

When trying to select item from any drop down in navigation bar the menu shrinks. I seem to not be able to navigate further than 1st item on the drop down list.
However, it seems to be working in other browsers but not in Firefox.
The website affected by this behavior is in the following link: http://www.coubroughandco.com
I am wondering what could possibly be the cause of it.

Hello,
I get the same issue. To make sure we are talking about the same thing I have uploaded a screenshot. See below.
When I hover over 'Buying' the menu pops up. I then move my mouse down over 'Your Budget' nothing happens. I then move the mouse down again over 'Leasehold or Freehold?' the menu disappears. It is not possible to click on the 'Leasehold or Freehold?' link.
I don't believe Firefox is at fault here. I think the website has not been properly tested to work with Firefox. I am not an expert in web design but other forum contributors here will be able to identify the piece of code in the site that is causing the problem.
I think the best thing you can do is to make contact with the business to let them know that their website navigation doesn't work for Firefox users.
I hope that helps.

Where is the drop down for bookmarks toolbar?

On old version I could hit a drop down to access complete toolbar list for bookmarks. Now drop down has everything but the extended toolbar file. How do I get it back?

Did you look at: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/845262 ?

Instead of hitting the "back" button on the toolbar, where is the drop down to go back 2-3 pages?

I used to be able to go back a few pages at a time until the latest upgrade. Now, if I click the "back" button on the toolbar I can only go back 1 page at a time. This doesn't always work and I have to go back to my original starting point which could be 10-15 click back ... is there anyway to get the option to go back multiple pages like before or can I just not use certain web pages anymore?
thank you!

Use this to open the tab history list:
* Right click on the Back or Forward button
* Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens
You can look at this extension:

Devices not detected - where is the drop down menu for device?

I keep getting drop down messages about updates for my MacBook Pro. These have to do with iphoto, updates that I could care less about. How do I keep these from popping up, with out taking the update. The drop down is very frustrating.

I keep getting drop down reminders about updates to my MacBook Pro. The up dates concern digital camera and iphoto, none of which I want. Is their a way to keep these intermittent drop downs from appearing, or do I have to contend with this interruption until I down load the update?

Where are the drop down reminders appearing? All I get is a number showing up on the App Store dock icon.
You are probably going to have to either update the software or remove it from your computer.

My problem is - I want show only 10 numbers.User need to scroll and select other numbers.
Is it possible?
Edited by: pra_addd2007 on Jun 7, 2008 3:57 AM

i try with size attribute, its not working, this will increase the height of the select box. it will look like listbox. it does not control the dropdown length.

Font drop down menu won't stay open in Photoshop Elements 8

I have Photoshop Elements 8. Up until today it worked just fine. I have been trying to change the font type using the drop down menu of course. Every time I click on the drop down menu it tries to open, but will not stay open to make the change. The menu just flickers in the attempt to open it up.
I have reset the tool, deleted any preferences at start up using the Ctrl+Alt+sSiht keys and no help.
I am using a Windows 7 64bit system. Like I said, this hasn’t happen before. Now that I think about it, sometimes when a menu box is open it will disappear behind the main window and I need to find it again by toggling the window, this will make the change menu to reappear. But still no font drop down menu.
Anybody have any help?

If photodrawken's suggestion doesn't make any difference, which was my first thought on the problem, here are a couple of other suggestions.
You might have a bad font. Have you installed any fonts or programs that might have put in new fonts recently?
In pse 8 under Edit>Preferences>Type uncheck Font Preview Size and see if that makes a difference.
Also this lists a fix for missing scroll bars in pse 8 and even though that's not your exact problem it would be worth a try:

Do you have any third party plugins installed for pse8?

The drop-down menu is not rendered properly with iframe where a pdf is embedded

I want to embed a pdf in a webpage, where the drop-down menu needs to be displayed on the top of the pdf. I am using iframe to embed the pdf.
The drop-down menu is not properly rendered (border-radius and box-shadow) in Firefox at http://mysite1.webege.com/test.html.

*[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779435 bug 779435] - the drop-down menu is not rendered properly with iframe where a pdf is embedded
It is usually best to attach a minimal test case to the bug report.<br />
In that case the code doesn't get lost if the page is removed from the server.

I modified the budget categories on the numbers template so now the transaction tab does not communicate with the budget tab. I figured out how to change the drop down options but how do I get it to reflect on my budget sheet? Please help.

If you are familar with the Numbers Budget Template it has two tabs 'Budget' and 'Transactions'. If you use the template as it is designed when you input expenses on the transaction tab it will automatically add that amount into the selected category on the budget tab. I have madified my budget tab to reflect the caegories that I need, which included adding several to the template. I also added to the table so it reflects my income and expenses so I can track where I am at with a glance. Since I did this, I can't get my transactions tab to communicate with the budget tab. I figured out how to change the options in the drop down box for category but I con't figure out how to get it to reflect onto my budget tab. I'm sure that it is an easy fix, however, I am just not well versed in Numbers. I appreciate your time in helping me with this issue.
Respectfully,
Jon

My guess is that while you added catetories to your Budget Sheet by adding new lines and filling in the category column, you didn't also add the formulas to these new budget lines.
The proper way to add those lines would have been to select a cell in the line just above where you want to add a line and type Option/Alt-DownArrow. This would have copied the formulas into the new line. Maybe you did this, and maybe not. You didn't give details on how you added the lines.
Select C2 and D2 and Command-C to copy them to the Clipboard.
Select all the cells of Columns C and D except for the top and bottom rows and Command-V to Paste.
If I have properly guessed the problem, you should be in business. This assumes that your Categories are exaclty the same as the entries in your Pop-up menus. Spelling counts, as does case.
