Why does the drag and drop context menu always popup when dragging files between windows explorer instances ?

I have fusion 7.1.1 on an iMac 27 inch retina. 32GB ram of which 6GB assigned to Fusion and 2 cores. Windows 7 Home Premium installed. Mostly working fine but a few funnies. First and foremost: Whenever I drag and drop between instances of windows explorer, I get the little pop-up context menu offering me Copy Here / Move Here etc.  etc. I have never known Windows to ask me what I want to do when I drag stuff - why is this happening ? I have scoured the net for info on this and found nothing. Please note that this is NOT associated with the Start Menu (For which I found a zillion solutions to whatever that problem is). Also, It is NOT to do with stopping drag & drop and Context menus: yes, I know how to do that but that is NOT what I'm asking to get rid of. This may not be related but I have also had to set my Internet Properties / Explorer settings / Launching-applications-and-unsafe-files to "Enable" to prevent every shortcut I create causing a "Do you want to run this ... ?" message every time I click on them. Doing this has caused WIndows 7 to turn into a finger-wagging safety-nanny glaring at me over its demi-lune spectacles.

Ok ... fixed

In your sequence, on the left most column you should see a V1 (left of the Lock Track button). Click that to make sure its highlighted, it allows you to drop video to the sequence.

    It sounds like you've installed Mavericks.  You can confirm this by clicking on the Apple located at the top left of the screen and choosing "About This Mac" from the menu.  You should see a window appear with the text "Version 10.9.1" near the middle.
    If it says "Version 10.9.1", then you've installed Mavericks.  It still says "Download" in the App Store because you can still download the operating system after installing it.  This is useful if you want to download it for a friend, or create a USB boot drive.

  • Why does the color and or tone of my image change?

    Why does the color and or tone of my image change after working in LR for a couple of hours? I open LR and everything looks fine - work for a couple of hours on the same shoot - but then the pictures start to look flat or greenish cast as time goes by. All the files get flat and the greenish cast after a couple of hours - the ones already worked on and the newer ones I'm pulling up to work on. RAW files downloaded from a Canon 30D. Also exporting to PSCS2 as PROPhoto results in a flat image. I switched back to export AdobeRGB.

    Hola - thanks for the reply - yep - closing and then opening LR helps - but can't do that all the time after processing 3 or 4 files.
    One reply was a corrupt monitor color profile - So I deleted that one and loaded a new adobeRGB profile. That helped a little also for a while - I then reloaded my monitor drivers and refreshed them - that help for a day - the greenish cast is back It works fine on my laptop for now. The same pictures that look greenish in LR look great in Canon DPP. So it probably wasn't the color profile or monitor drivers. My issue started with the small scale previews so I bumped that up. Still have the issue. I finished up a project and now going to uninstall and reinstall LR. Let's see what happens with a fresh install. andy.

    Use XML.sendAndLoad.
    http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00002879.html
    You will need a server script to receive the XML structure
    and it depends on
    the server scripting language how you obtain that data. Then
    you can either
    populate a database or write to a static file or even email
    the XML data
    received from Flash.
    For a basic example, I have two links I use for students in
    my Flash
    courses:

  • Why does the name change to my dad's name when I use his credit card for downloads?

    I have an iPod touch. I have my own apple ID and icloud account. Why does the name change to my dad's name when I use his credit card for downloads? Is there a way I can have my own account and use my dad's card without having his name on my photostream and icloud?
    I went on icloud.com and changed my name but it changes the credit card name to mine as well so I can't get apps unless its under his name, but it confuses everyone i share photo streams with, as there are two of my dads?
    My aunt is having the same problem with her photostream, so I know its not only me.

    I have this problem and it's annoying.  Plenty of people in this world do not pay for their own stuff!.  So i have 5 kids.  All there accounts show as my name when people add them for Photo streams etc etc.  This is ridiculous.  Why not seperate billing address / credit card details to the name of the person on the account?  Why do they have to be the same?

  • Why does the iTunes music-radio stop every about 15 minutes? I have Windows 7.

    Why does the iTunes radio-music streaming stop every 15 minute? I have Windows 7.

    The thing is, the music does not cease prior to the slideshow start. Or At least it doesn't cease on my ATV.
    I do have Flickr set as screensaver indeed, but having to change screensaver settings to watch a new slideshow is just plain annoying IMO.
    Ane the fact that the music plays when a screensaver slideshow is active is a proof that technically the ATV could support the feature.
    Thank you for your reply.

  • There was a change in my desktop drag and drop post Lion update! Cannot drag or download to the desktop per se. It has to go into the desktop window in the finder now?

    It is odd: pre update (the latest) I could download to my literal desktop, or drag and drop a photo from iPhoto, an mp3 to mail later from iTunes.....Now I can only do that from within the finder in the "desktop" window. In other words: If I download (I prefer to download onto my desktop rather than the download folder-window. I want to have control over ny desktop again (rather than the folder-window entitled "desktop"....Gratefully, Dennis

    Rereading this question which I wrote after a long night makes me dizzy....But I don't know how to express it differently...I have lost my contol of the desktop you see on my iMac screen with all desktop responsibilities now only available via the finder window entitled "desktop".

  • Drag and Drop not working with IE11,Firefox or Chrome on Windows 7 x64 SP1

    Hello,
     I am trying to use drag and drop on my system but it is not working. other's within my department have no issues, but they are using IE10. I also have SharePoint Designer 2013 installed.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Derek

    Derek,IE11 is having some compatibility issues with the share point.Apart from IE11,it should work on IE10,9 and Firefox and chrome as well.
    Please check the links below that explains the issues with IE11 and the functionality of Drag and drop and limitations as-well.
    1.Since SharePoint 2013 fully support IE 32-bit version above 7, there might be compatibility issue with other browsers. I’d recommend you use IE 8,9,10 32-bit for optimal Performance.
    2. Open the same document library in Internet Explorer as this functions does not work with Firefox or Chrome by default
    3. Make sure the IE (Internet Explorer) Version should be 32-bit and not a 64-bit

  • Drag and drop from Lightroom into Premiere doesn't work in Windows

    I recently switched from OSX to Windows and noticed that in Windows, I'm unable to drag and drop from LIghtroom into Premiere. In OSX, it worked fine.
    I do this a lot because it's a time saver. I basically use lightroom to find the photo or video clip I need for my editing project and then just drag in right on to the Premiere timeline. Now I have to do the extra step in Lightroom of "show in explorer", then drag the file from explorer to Premiere. Not really a big deal but just curious why it works in OSX and not Windows.
    I'm running latest Windows 8.1, Lightroom 5.4, Camera Raw 8.4, and Premiere Pro CC 7.2.2 (33)
    -Pete

    Hi Pete,
    You can obtain scripts here:
    http://www.robcole.com/Rob/ProductsAndServices/MiscLrPlugins#MiscScripts
    You'll have to edit lua code to adapt for Premiere. Not that hard really (e.g. clone, then change the script name and path to executable..), but may be too intimidating for some folks. If you are one of those folks, go for the plugin instead - it's usable via GUI - no lua code - can probably accomplish the same thing.

    Let me know (outside the forum please) if problems - thanks,
    Rob

  • Why does the tab bar on my iPad 2 disappear when I swipe down? How can I lock it in place?

    Why does the tab bar on my iPad 2 using IO8 disappear when I swip down? Its annoying. I have to tap the top of the screen to view my open tabs.
    why did Apple switch the position of the bookmarks icon and the favorites icon. Now I tap the wrong one.

    There isn't a setting to stop the tab bar automatically hiding (or I haven't found one), and as to why the icons were moved I don't think that Apple have said. If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • Cannot drag and drop a layer(s) from 1 PS file to another.

    Hello,
    I have just installed PS CS5.1 and used 64bit version (Yes, I have restarted my PC).
    I have found 2 problems straight away: when you are trying to drag and drop images from layers panel to another PS file (see image above), it won't do it like it was in CS5: the current solution is to choose them in layers panel, but start dragging them from the image window.
    Another problem is with the clipboard: I cannot paste to in PS5.1 more than 1 image captured with PrintScreen: as long as I click PrintScreen only the first 1, although if I open PS5 the image captured by Prinscreen changes with out problems to the latest one. After restart I could not even paste a single picture, while pastes in other applications are working fine.
    As these are 2 big issues for my current state of work, I am rolling back to PS5, until the fixes will be made.
    Regards,
    Pavel

    Hi Rahul,
    It seams that not many people were using 64bit PS, since there were not many plugins available, but now there are more and more of them, and probably this bug would not be the only issue.
    UPDATE: Sorry, I was wrong on the drag and drop layers from layers panel to another PS file: it probably was always unavailable, but could be a good idea for future interface solutions.
    Hopefully our favourite software manufacturer Adobe will respond to our message with a hot fix
    Regards,
    Pavel
