Why remove the single most used item, the addons bar?

Why does their v29 change log says "added options", when the only thing most of us see are removed options, including the single most used section: the addon bar? I do not want to install an addon to see the addon bar that has been present since pre-Firefox Mozilla days. So why remove the single most used item? Did the previous pro-life CEO like it too much and the new management cannot have that?? Seems like Firefox is going backwards, not forwards.

With 20 years in tech support and working on thousands of user end computers, the number 1 area used by people both in offices and in their personal computers was the add on bar. Considering the sheer number of addons that make use of it (just a preliminary dig through the addons earlier today), I would say in excess of 75% of legitimate addons make use of it. By removing it, it essentially nullifies hundreds of thousands of man hours put into programming all those addons.
Why require an addon just to be able to make use of other addons? Sounds like a VERY flawed study to me, or there was no study and it's just Mozilla big wigs deciding to change what they want, spitting in the face of the open source/common community licensing.

After importing images from my card using LR 5.4, the GPS data does not show in the metadata panel. However, when I look at the imported images using Bridge, the GPS data is visible. Anybody know why LR is not seeing the GPS data? Camera is Canon 6D.

Ok, the issue seem to be solved. The problem was this:
The many hundred files (raw and xmp per image) have been downloaded by ftp in no specific order. Means - a couple of files in the download queue - both raw and xmps. Most of the time, the small xmp files have been finished loading first and hence the "last change date" of these xmp files was OLDER than the "last change date" of the raw file - Lightroom then seem to ignore the existence of the xmp file and does not read it during import.(a minute is enough to run into the problem)
By simply using the ftp client in a way that all large raw files get downloaded first followed by the xmp files, we achieved that all "last changed dates" of the xmp files are NEWER than the related raw files. (at least not older)
And then LR is reading them and all metadata information has been set / read correctly.
So this is solved.

Display document in the Single Document web item -authorization problem.

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem.
I have two types of users, users for display document in the Single
Document web item and users who can maintain and create new comment in
the Single Document web item.
My problem is I can't create users that can only display documents (all
users who can display the query can add new comment).
We use the new 7.0 Authorization.
The authorization object S_RS_ADMWB doesnu2019t influence about the
activity in the Single Document web item.
In the new authorization method, in PFCG or in RSECADMIN there is no
functionality that we can separate between the two types of users I
mention before.we used S_RS_COMP & S_RS_COMP1.
Please advice
Sharon.

What are the 5 Most Useful Shareware programs you've come across?

I wanted to lighten the mood on the forum with all of the complaints about the MBP with something potentially useful to current users as well as potential users like myself. I was just wondering what were the 5 most useful shareware programs people have come across for their MBP? It can range from security add ons, or networking tricks, really anything that saves you a few minutes of your day that you think sets your MBP apart from other MBPs and other portables in general.
Oh, and please try not to include the macsaber....yes it was funny...the first 10 threads....

1. Radio widget from WU: http://radiotuner.wuersch.net/
you can just add any radion stream (url), they also have a list on their website (needs real player)
2. Transmit (very user friendly FTP)
3. Macjanitor (keeps the system tidy)
4. VLC player (plays most media extensions)
5. Skype (Phone any lan or mobile in the world from you mac/pc for a fraction of the cost, as well as normal chat)
Actually i think most of that lot is freeware apart from Transmit; bargain!
honorable mention for Appzapper, SuperDuper, google earth and firefox.
hehe, mactheripper made me giggle - great name..

The itunes window on my desktop fails to display the bottom most portion of the screen unless I go into full screen mode. Why?

As a follow up to provide more detailed information.
I have a MacBook as well running 10.6.8.
When I open itunes, the window I expect to come up does. It has a scroll that allows me to view all of my playlists, as well as hit the new playlist icon at the bottom of the screen, etc.
On my Macbook Pro running 10.7.4, when I open itunes, there's no scroll bar, no icons at the bottom most portion of the screen. The only way that I can see the new playlist icon AND be able to view/scroll through all of my playlists is to enter full screen mode....very inconvenient as the window is now fixed (can't be moved out of the way) without exiting full screen mode.
I'm a multi-tasker...rearranging windows, making one application active while another moves into the background, is my typical work situation.
Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer.

Possible to set CacheSize for the single-JVM version of the data cache?

Hi -
I'm using Kodo 2.3.2.
Can I set the size for the data cache when I'm using a subclass of the single-JVM version of the
data cache? Or is this only a feature for the distributed version?
Here are more details...
I'm using a subclass of LocalCache so I can display the cache contents.
The kodo.properties contains these lines:
com.solarmetric.kodo.DataCacheClass=com.siemens.financial.jdoprototype.app.TntLocalCache
com.solarmetric.kodo.DataCacheProperties=CacheSize=10
When my test program starts, it displays getConfiguration().getDataCacheProperties() and the value
is displayed as "CacheSize=10".
But when I load 25 objects by OID and display the contents of the cache, I see that all the objects
have been cached (not just 10). Can you shed light on this?
Thanks,
Les

The actual size of the cache is a bit more complex than just the CacheSize
setting. The CacheSize is the number of hard references to maintain in the
cache. So, the most-recently-used 10 elements will have hard refs to them,
and the other 15 will be moved to a SoftValueCache. Soft references are not
garbage-collected immediately, so you might see the cache size remain at
25 until you run out of memory. (The JVM has a good deal of flexibility in
how it implements soft references. The theory is that soft refs should stay
around until absolutely necessary, but many JVMs treat them the same as
weak refs.)
Additionally, pinning objects into the cache has an impact on the cache
size. Pinned objects do not count against the cache size. So, if you have
15 pinned objects, the cache size could be 25 even if there are no soft
references being maintained.

What can I do to correct this error: The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. The drive works fine when I burn a CD using Media Player.

What can I do to correct this error: The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes. I have reinstalled several times but it hasn't changed this error message. Why am I able to burn a CD using Media Player but not iTunes? I am using Windows XP and I have burned cds from iTunes in the past.

To set it up as POP you need to delete the account, reboot the phone by holding the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds), then add it back following these instructions: Forcing creation of a POP or IMAP email account
I understand that you have used the same account for many years, but the technology is also changing constantly. Years ago the standard was POP (Post Office Protocol), which was designed at a time when it was inconceivable that anyone would access their email from more than one device. When people started using multiple devices, for the most part they wanted to see changes on one device mirrored on another. A new standard, IMAP (Internet Mail Access Protocol) was developed. With iMAP the master copy of all messages resides on a server, and multiple devices are kept in sync with the server. So if you delete a message from one device it is removed from the server, and then removed from all other devices when they next sync. This is the same way Microsoft Exchange works. Other benefits of IMAP include the ability to have multiple mail folders that are kept in sync across devices. In your case you could use this to create a separate folder for each family member, so they could move messages to their own folder and not clutter up the shared Inbox. Most computer mail readers can even automatically sort incoming mail into folders based on the contents of the message.
IMAP is considered a "higher level" standard than POP. When you create a mail account iOS devices query the server and ask what it supports; if it says it supports IMAP then the account is automatically configured for IMAP. So if you really want POP you must fool it, as described in the link above. In my experience Android devices default to the highest level protocol also, and I suspect newer Blackberries do (although it has been 15 years since I used a BB).

When starting iTunes I continually get an error message " The registry Settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes." I have unistalled and reinstalled iTunes several times and have cleaned up the registry using a 3rd party Windows utility. Any tips on removing this error message for good?

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

I can get down as far as step 11 but it shows nothing about upper filters and when I type on "If the Upper Filters entry is missing follow these instructions" nothing happens
Do you mean you can't see the instructions on what to do if there is no UpperFilters entry?
If so, here's the relevant instructions for that step:
On the right side of the Registry Editor window, right-click the UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.
Right-click the empty white space within the right-hand portion of the Registry Editor window. From the shortcut menu, choose New > Multi-String Value.
Name this new value "UpperFilters" (without the quotes). Then, right-click the newly created UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.
