Why can't I combine files from right click any more?

I used to be able to select a set of documents in the Windows file explorer, right click these highlighted documents, and then right click-->Combine Files in Acrobat.
This used to open the combine files page in Acrobat and I would be able to combine the files directly.
Now when I use right click to combine files in Acrobat it simply opens Acrobat. If I want to combine the files I have to go to Acrobat, select the option, and then navigate to the files.
This similar issue exists for edited PDFs. I used to be able to right click a document and select "Edit with Adobe Acrobat" and the document would open when this option was selected. Now if this option is selected it opens Adobe Acrobat and I have to navigate to any files I want to use.
How do I use the right click features in the file explorer? These features don't work any more and they used to.

Hi
Could you please tell which Acrobat version you are using and also the OS- Windows 7 or 8.1?
Also can you please tell whether you are getting Acrobat specific combine and Edit options in the right - click menu?
If yes, are they working or nothing happens on clicking them?
If possible, can you also try to restart your system and then try Right-click -> combine files in Acrobat?
Thanks

Why can't I open "mail" from "home page" any more?

Every time Firefox opened

So... You want your home page to be Yahoo! Mail??

Why did Lion remove spotlight search from right click options?

Why did Lion remove spotlight search from right click options?

If by "contextual menu" you mean Right Clicking, then Yes, I now can highlight text (say a name in Address Book), right click it, and Spotlight searches for it.
There is a little triangle next to the word Searching in Sys Pref; make sure it's pointing down and opens the sub-choices below it, i.e. Look up in Dictionary, Search with Google, and Spotlight.
Let me know if this doesn't do it for you.
Good luck.

Why Can't I Copy Files from an External Hard Drive or SD Card?

Major problem here... Why when I try copying files from an external hard drive or an SD card onto my internal iMac hard drive, it doesn't work? The status bar that pops up, shows that it completes the transfer of the files to 100%; however, when it does in fact finish, the files actually do not appear on my hard drive.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is one of many problems I have been finding with OS X Lion and am very much on the verge of going back to Snow Leopard.
Thank you.

Have u tried the usual? Safe boot. Delete finder plist files? etc. And the drives are formatted for mac yes?

Why can't i remove files from my iPhone?

I have audiobooks and music files on my iPhone and iPod that I would like to remove so that I can put new ones on and I cannot remove them in iTunes. I never had this problem before iOS 5 and the latest update for iTunes. I have tried clicking on the file and pressing the delete key and right clicking but the delete/remove option is no longer there. I have searched the iTunes help file and cannot find any answers. Does anyone know how to remove these files? Thanks in advance for any help!

No one here knows why. No one can help you with so little information because we do not have a crystalball. You will need to provide detailed information about what happens when you try to buy an app in order to begin to help with your issue.

Why can't I delete files from networked computer?

I have my iMac G5 networked to a PC. Lately, when I try to delete PC files and directories from the Mac, I keep getting the error message:
"The operation cannot be complete because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items." It will not allow me to move files from the PC directories onto the Mac desktop either.
I have no problem in seeing all of the files from either computer. I can also delete Mac files while working at the PC. I have checked all connections and configurations. Is there anything special that I should check.
Thanks

Are you using an Admin account to do these things? I get similar messages under those circumstances but when I use a regular account I can perform the edits (as long as I can see the content). I have no idea why this is so - but essentially you are using your OS X's server capabilities that are built into the non-server edition of OS X.

Why can't Lightroom open files from OneDrive when I try to add them to the catalogue?

It finds the files, says that they aren't available for preview, and if I try to import them anyway, it says that it can't open the files. They are jpeg from IOS and are only available online.

Yes, it turned out to be a version issue. The current version number at the time was 2014.8.2.something. My version was one version older. Pays to update right away!

Why can't i drag files from harddrive to playlist?

I run Windows 7 64 bit
Itunes 12.1.1.4
I can't drag files from a harddrive folder to a playlist anymore.
Anybody have a fix for this?

See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash.
Not sure why you're having trouble adding to the playlists then, but restoring your previous library may help.

Why can't I open files from ACR to CS5?

I have been using CS5/Bridge/ACR for a year now and all of the sudden, I cannot get the RAW images from ACR into CS5. I always open my RAW files from Bridge, make my adjustments in ACR, then select all and open images into CS5. This has always worked just fine, but recently only a random number of images will open, if any at all!
For example, If I select 10 images to open in CS5, it may be 4 that open, or it could be 8, or it could be 0. I haven't done anything new to my computer. I have uninstalled photoshop and reinstalled it twice and that hasn't helped.
I am so frustrated. I thought I purchased a quality product (which I have loved until now since I can't even get my files in to use the program!) and am so dissapointed that I can't use it anymore.
Hopefully someone can help me. I really want to use photoshop again!

You could try to reset Bridge preferences. Hold down the Ctrl key and start Bridge. You should get a reset window with 3 options.

Why can't I download file from any websites?

Whenever I try to download files from filesharing sites like mediafire, I click the download button and the page appears to be loading and nothing happens.
After several tries, I found out that while the page is loading, it is actually downloading the file because the time it takes for the page to load before the "open" or "save file" windows come out depends on the size of the file. And immediately after I click "save file" the download is done, and I can open whatever I downloaded. The time ranges between 5min to 30min depending on the file size.
Usually the "save file" window will display immediately when I click on the download button, the the fire fox download window will show the progress of the download and % of completion. But no, for me nothing appears in the download window, and I don't get to see the progress of my download until it is apparently "completed" after the webpage finished loading.
I have tried every solution that I know, cleaning my browser history and cookies, resetting firefox, clearing up my computer's registry, even did a clean reinstall of firefox, wiping everything including my bookmarks, but none of these solves the problem. I am also pretty sure that my firefox extension are not the ones to blame as I did do a test download after a clean reinstall, which did not work as well.

My problem is fixed after I set the firefox connection settings from "use system proxy setting" to "no proxy". After setting to no proxy, the downloads happens as it should.
but my question now is what is system proxy? and what is the difference between using these 2 different options?

Why can't I transfer files from usb internal hdd on my mac?

I am trying to restore a back-up (not via time-machine) from an external HDD dock, I've put an internal HDD in there.
I'm constantley confronted with this error: "The finder can’t complete the operation because some data in "8A5A0887.MOV" can’t be read or written. (Error code -36)".
I've tried to check the do not read/write radio button, but it's not even on. I'm afraid my disk is broken but I need those files really bad. Any ideas on transfering the files from the HDD?

looks like the file is corrupt

Why can't I add files from my MacBook Pro to my external hard drive?

I re-named my external hard drive on my PC, and now I cannot add files from my Mac to the hard drive. How can I add files again? Do I need to reformat my hard drive?

Since you mention you used the external harddrive with your 'PC', I assume that it was NTFS formatted. By default Mac cannot write to NTFS only read it.
To make sure: go to. Disk Utility (while the drive is mounted), select the drive and look at 'Format'. That should tell you the format type of the drive.
If you are looking for third party solutions, try:
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24481/ntfs-3g
http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-mac/
However, know that they are not supported by apple and won't be the best solution. The best cross platform solution would be to reformat the drive with exFat (you can do this through disk utility), just make sure you backup your data before doing this. Both Windows and Mac can write to exFat and it does not have file size limitations as Fat32.
