Why do the last 3 or 4 files open when I click one file?

Is "resume" the reason why 4 or 5 of the most recent files I worked in open when I double click on a file that a) opens an application, mostly MS Office 2011 and b) and then the file I wanted?  ***???  I end up closing a lot of windows to get to what I wanted.  Whatever it is unchecking the resume box in the sys pref general tab has not fixed the problem.  Lion is a disaster...

Firefox > Preferences > General: Downloads : "Always ask me where to save every file"

  • The publishing settings page does not open when I click on the domain name and the iWeb application will not stay on the dock.

    Hello,
    I have been trying to help a friend who is having problems publishing her website. (She has done so previously using Mobile me)
    There seem to be a couple of things wrong with the application,
    1     if I drag the application icon onto the dock, it won't stay there
    2     I wanted to change where her site is published to (she has bought a domain name and has a hosting service now) but when I click on the domain name I do not get the "site publishing settings page" so we can't enter the new details.  All that comes up is the main page of her website.
    I would suggest uninstalling and re-installing Iweb, to see if that clears the problem, but as Iweb came pre-installed with her Imac, I am not sure that we can do this.
    Any ideas please?
    she's using and imac 24 in (approx 4 years old) and running osx 10.5.8

    NO - not correct.  Even if you are still using iWeb 08, you can still publish to another host and not MobileMe.  You do this by selecting the option 'Publish to a local folder" and this will publish the site to your desktop and you can then use an ftp programme such as Cyberduck to upload your site to your host.
    MobileMe will not be here after the end of June, so you will have to find alternative hosting.  They are not taking any new subscriptions.
    On new Macs, iLife 11 is pre-installed, but only iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand are included, not iWeb and iDVD. The Apple Online store is not selling the boxed version of iLife 11 any longer, so if you want to upgrade to iLife, then you'll have to look online at Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk for a boxed set of either iLife 09 or iLife 11.  Both contains iWeb 09, which is what you would want.

  • Why wont the buttons in a popup window respond when i click on them?

    for example when i push the x to close firefox it doesn 't respond, or trying to save a download the save,cancel or x buttons don't work

    Which version of Firefox do you run?
    See:
    * [[Finding your Firefox version]]
    * [[Web sites or add-ons incorrectly report incompatible browser]]
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Why is the last script executed twice?

    Here is my problem. I have two files, file1.sql and file2.sql that are called in a third file test.sql. The output from test.sql show that file2.sql was called twice
    --file1.sql
    select 'file1' as str from dual;
    --file2.sql
    select 'file2' as str from dual;
    --test.sql
    @file1.sql
    @file2.sql
    The output shows:
    STR
    file1
    STR
    file2
    STR
    file2
    Why is the last file execute twice. If I change the order of files in test.sql, then file1 is displayed twice

    I found my problem. In test.sql I had '/' in the last line
    --test.sql
    @file1.sql
    @file2.sql

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

  • How can I set the last mod of a file

    I get the last mod of a file (advanced file I/O palette -> File/Directory info)
    My problem is, that I download some files from a FTP-Server and the last mod of the downloaded file is not the same as on the ftp-server (the local file has always the time stamp from the downloaded date/time).
    I can list the timestamp from the files on the ftp-server, now I wanna change the last mod from my local file in the same as on the ftp-server.
    How can I make this?
    Thanks

    Hello TheDharmaInitiative,
    The "last modified" Attribute of a file can be altered programmatically using Windows API Functions.
    For LabVIEW i found a Post in a external Forum with some Sourcecode attached:
    http://www.labviewforum.de/index.php?s=c221d30094bfb9bd1edf87094f851b7f&showtopic=5895&st=0&p=28501&...
    For VB a Sourcecode Example can be found here:
    http://www.vbmonster.com/Uwe/Forum.aspx/vb/31547/Setting-a-file-s-timestamp
    To change the "last modified" Attribute manually a lot of Freeware and Open Source Tools are available:

    This is a user to user Forum, so you are not really addressing Adobe here, even though some Adobe employees thankfully have been dropping by.
    Also I can not reproduce the issue you claim to have with 14.2 on Mac OS 10.8.5.
    What is your OS?

  • Read in the last line of a file

    Can I use the "Read from File " vi to read ionly the last line of the file? If so, how? Thanks in advance for the help
    [email protected]

    Reading the "last line" of a file implies that you are dealing with an humanly readable ASCII text file and there are special characters (/n or /r or a combination of the two) that signify line breaks.
    You can only start reading from a certain byte offset using file I/O. Unless all your lines are equal lenght, It is impossible to find the start of the last line without reading every character leading up to it in one way or another.
    So in the most general case, you would need to read the entire file and find the last linefeed.
    HOWEVER: Typically, lines are not infinitely long, so if you have an upper estimate of line lenght, you can read a slightly longer tail from the end of the file and find the last linefeed there. You can probably modify the VI I posted here for your purpose, just use an appropriate length. Message Edited by altenbach on 06-08-2005 10:42 AM

  • Why is the last item not displayed ?

    Hi !
    I can understand why this the last episode of this feed is not displayed in itunes website (or itunes store in the app),
    http://xclusivesession.universpodcast.com/feed/
    What is really strange is that there is no problem at all when user subscribe in Itunes. I have many other feed built like that which work without any problem.
    To finish here is a screenshot showing the list on iTunes website starting at index 2
    Thank you so much for your help !

    This looks like a version of a bug in the Store which happens from time to time for some podcasts. Usually the entire list of episodes fails to show though the Store claims to be showing the correct number. Here you will notice that below the list it says '34 items' but it starts numbering at 2. I'm afraid there isn't anything you can do about this - your feed appears to be OK - it will probably sort itself out the next time the Store checks the feed.

  • The events of the last month have suddenly disappeared.  I have opened these successfully several times during the last few weeks, but on opening them yesterday they weren't there any longer. No idea how this could have happened! Possible to retrieve ???v

    The events of the last month, with the photographs have suddenly disappeared from the iPhoto Library.  I have opened these successfully several times during the last few weeks, but on opening them yesterday they weren't there any longer. No idea how this could have happened! Is it possible to retrieve ???

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Why doesn't my PSE 11 open when I click on the icon?

    My PSE 11 does not open whenm I click on the icon. It does not open when I try to open it from ALL PROGRAMS. It will open when I load a photo from a camera or card. WHY?

    Try it launching directly from the .exe .
    Editor-  "c:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe".
    Organizer -  C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 11 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
    You can also make the shortcut of both on your desktop.

  • Hi when i open my application folder, all the application is shown in trash folder. when i click the application it says this app is in trash first move it out. and when i try to open through finder go it says this file doesn't exist. can some1 plz help?

    hi when i open my application folder, all the application is shown in trash folder. when i click the application it says this app is in trash first move it out. and when i try to open through finder> go it says this file doesn't exist. can some1 plz help? how can i put all my application through application folder?

    Something really odd is going on. In your first screen shot, I noticed that the Applications folder does not have the proper icon displayed in the side bar. Also, in the title bar it lists it as Applications 08-59-29-909.
    Not sure where it's picking up that odd name, unless it's because it's still truly within the Trash folder.
    Try this. In the Finder > Preferences > General > turn on "Always open folders in a new window". (I have a feeling you have the default setting with this off).
    Now, in Finder > Go > move down and open the Applications Folder from there. Now open the folder where you see all your applications that you show in your screen shot, select all, and move them to this true appliactions folder.
    This is what you should properly seeing (but with different apps listed):
    See how the Applications folder has the icon of the letter A shaped with a pencil, ruler & pen.
