Window randomly maximizes both in focus and out of focus

I have a wide screen monitor with Thunderbird sized down to the lower right hand 1/4 of my screen. I use the left half as my working space virtually creating a multiple monitor feel. However, Thunderbird will randomly maximize itself. This happens when Thunderbird has the focus as well as when I'm working in another window. If I am working in another window, Thunderbird will maximize itself in the background behind whatever window has focus. It is not consistent as to when it will do it. Some days, it does it constantly within seconds of restoring to desired size and location. Other days, it may only do it once or twice.
I have included some info below. Let me know if you need more information to solve.
Thanks

Tape tension has nothing to do with it.
This is a digital camera: if the tape lost tension you'd have no image at all, or a "mosaic" or "blocky" image because of missing chunks of data.
The focus isn't related to the tape at all. It's like moments of blurry eyesight aren't caused by lack of grip on the floor of your shoes!
It's the camera "hunting" for focus, as explained by AppleMan and Karsten. You may not see this on the camera's own built-in viewfinder monitor ..but that really is the cause.
The tape's tension, or contact with the tape-head, is not it. If there were poor contact you'd have sporadic loss of both sound and picture ..but not a change of focus.

  • Why NT SERVICE\MSSQLSERVER & NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT are flagged as Windows groups on both sys.syslogins and sys.server_principals

    Why NT SERVICE\MSSQLSERVER & NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT are flagged as Windows groups on both sys.syslogins and sys.server_principals?
    The question is relevant, at least, for xp_logininfo, which will return an error if executed with one of these two logins, and with the “members” option:
    exec xp_logininfo 'NT SERVICE\MSSQLSERVER', 'members'
    Msg 15404, Level 16, State 5, Procedure xp_logininfo, Line 42
    Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'NT SERVICE\MSSQLSERVER’, error code 0x8ac.

    Thank you all of you for your answers, but my question is rather why those logins are flagged as Windows group (type = ’G’ on sys.server_principals and isntgroup = 1 on sys.syslogins, respectively), if, and your answers point to that, they are NOT Windows
    groups.
    I think is better to clarify with an example: in order to use xp_logininfo with the “members” option only for Windows group, one will filter logins by “type = ’G’” or by “isntgroup = 1” from either sys.server_principals or sys.syslogins, respectively.
    Any of those conditions will NOT filter out the NT SERVICE\MSSQLSERVER & NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT logins, and xp_logininfo will raise the above error for those, which is normal as they are not groups, and they cannot have members.
    Oh, and from one of my systems:
    SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'), SERVERPROPERTY ('edition');
    10.50.1600.1    RTM    Enterprise Edition (64-bit)
    SELECT name,type,type_desc FROM master.sys.server_principals WHERE name LIKE 'NT SERVICE\%SQL%';
    NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT    G    WINDOWS_GROUP
    NT SERVICE\MSSQLSERVER    G    WINDOWS_GROUP
    SELECT name,isntgroup FROM master.sys.syslogins WHERE name LIKE 'NT SERVICE\%SQL%';
    NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT    1

  • How to open pdf in Acrobat Reader in Firefox window/Tab when both Acrobat Pro and Acrobat REader are

    I would like to open pdf files in firefox using Adobe Acrobat Reader.
    I have both Acrobat Pro or whatever its called and Acrobat Reader installed.
    Presently going to firefox's tools, options, then selecting the file types option I cannot select any plugin to open my pdf's besides what's labeled as "adobe acrobat" but which executes an in-tab instance of Adobe Acrobat Pro, despite the ambiguous language on the plugin which I suspect stems from Adobe's evolving and confusing conventions regarding just what Adobe Reader, Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Acrobat Reader, and Adobe Acrobat Pro really is.
    Anyways, how to make pdfs open in-tab instances of Adobe Acrobat Reader while I have both the Reader and the Pro installed?
    Is there a sepperate plugin I need or something?
    Any help is very Appreciated

    eh,
    The problem w/ acrobat is that it takes forever to load
    I was going to just use reader to read documents, and acrobat to edit, so I could gut reader of all the plugins worthless for 99.9999 of pdfs I use and it'll load fast.
    foxit is nice, but won't open in-browser despite their continuing claims of supporting this feature.
    That's so bizarre that adobe won't allow you to choose which one you want to run. Its installed as sepperate programs on the uninstall list, on the "open with" context menu, and w/ file associations, so why would it not be possible to only open pdf links w/ one?
    Maybe its time to abandon acrobat and just use reader. There's much cheaper programs w/ all the same functionality as acrobat, so I guess I'll move on to those.
    If anyone else has suggestions feel free to make em.

  • How many licenses for Windows 7 via both Boot Camp and either VMware Fusion or Parallels on the same MacBook?

    This concerns a white MacBook running OS X 10.5.8 Leopard.
    If I install Windows 7 on my MacBook with Boot Camp, and then use either VMware Fusion or Parallels to access that Boot Camp partition, will I need to buy two Windows licenses from Microsoft?
    I had not anticipated this, but when calling VMware and Parallels to check out the tech support services of the two companies, the person at VMware mentioned that I would need two licenses.  When I called Parallels, I then asked the person at that company whether two Windows licenses would be needed.  That person told me that only one license would be necessary.
    I then called Microsoft.  The representative there told me that my question could not be answered by Microsoft because that company does not provide support for users installing Windows on Apple computers.
    After that, I called Apple.  The Apple representative was not familiar with this type of issue.  She mentioned the possibility that the VMware Fusion and Parallels products might be different, and that that might be why using the former would involve two licenses and using the latter would involve only one license.
    Has anyone had experience with installing Windows 7 via Boot Camp, and then accessing that Windows 7 installation from VMware Fusion or Parallels?  If so, did you have to buy two Windows licenses?

    One license. You may have to re-register Windows online when you start it up in Parallels because Windows sees that it is now running on new hardware (virtualized) and thinks it has been installed on a new computer. If the online re-registration does not work, just call the registration number and go through the automated registration process. Once re-registered then use Windows from Parallels. If you are also installing MS Office in Windows you will need to go through the same process again for registering Office.
    The process is automated, simple, and free. You have made the process more complicated than it is by calling Apple, Parallels, and Microsoft when there is an automated MS registration number to call.

    Hello darkhawk,
    Thank you for the recommendation.  I somewhat understand what a MS DOS disk is, but I'm not sure how to go about creating one. I've seen where you can use a program, like Rufus, to create a usb one  - but I'm leery about using 3rd-party programs (especially ones I'm not familiar with). I've come across a couple of 'how-to' tuts, but they didn't clarify what files (if any) I would need to include on the disk (for my particular situation). Right now I don't have any blank cds, nor any extra flash/thumb drives - wish I did, but hadn't needed these for years. There has only been one other time where I needed to re-install Windows, but that was over 15 years ago - I did it through BIOS, reformatting my drives, and then reinstalled via the Windows XP disk. Windows 8 is an entirely different breed, which has left me feeling a bit stumped, at times. If there was a way I could perform it (successfully), similar to the first time I did it years ago, I'd give it a try - but at the same time, I'm a bit reluctant, because if it doesn't work, then I'm stuck without any internet access to get further help.
    Ask and ye shall receive. This should be doable in Windows 7 and Windows 8 on another PC. I recommend using a USB Flash drive like in this tutorial, but I'm sure you could use something else.
    If you want, you could also use Hiren's BootCD to make a bootable CD with many options and programs on it (I keep one, just for certain situations) that will allow you to do the same things.

  • ThinkPad T510 type 4313 Windows 7 64 bit- sound in and out

    Hi,
    I bought my ThinkPad T510 in March 2011, had purchased a 1 year warranty, which has expired. My sound issue started almost 2 months ago. While watching DVD's, videos online at any site from yahoo, facebook, youtube, netflix, hulu etc my sound will stop completely while the video still runs. I have to press the volume buttons on the keyboard either up or down to turn the sound back on temporarily. The sound may come back on for 15 minutes or 5 seconds. Sometimes the volume buttons are not effective and then I have to click on the speaker button in the bottom right hand side of the screen to manually slide the volume button up or down.
    It seems like such a small problem with an easy fix, but it is extremely frustrating when watching for example, a 30 second video and having to hover over the volume button.
     I've tried everything.
    - Called Lenovo for support or direction for this quick fix that should be available (I can't be the only one with this issue, because I've never had this problem before). This issue isn't familiar, I can ship it in, and possibly pay up to $600 for them to locate and fix the issue.
    - Updating the Conexant drivers
    - Removing current driver and having it auto reinstall most up to date driver
    - trying the diagnose & fix app on here which found nothing wrong
    - Ran my Norton virus check
    - removed all cookies and history
    - Updated the conexant drivers from the Lenovo Support tab
    - Used monthly Norton phone support 3 different times to diagnose and fix the issue
    I am at a loss, please help.
    I've been told it could be a hardware issue or the VOIP may need to be turned off. Norton cannot touch "the brain"over the phone

    Hey Soundless,
    Have you updated your BIOS to 1.52?
    Try to find older audio driver versions and see if it works.
    Also, check in Device Manager under your audio devices and make sure that you don't have any audio drivers conflicting with each other.

  • Firefox 5.0 on Windows 7 jumpy, window title bar pops in and out, window resizes.

    Question pretty much sums it up. Windows Title bar keeps flitting in and out, causing screen to jump. Concurrently, right and bottom window margins resize a bit smaller. No apparent rhyme or reason, but leads to a lot of bad mouse clicks. Unrelated to whether the bookmarks tab is open or not. Happens in safemode as well, and my theme is the default. I don't want a plug-in to fix this, I want Firefox 5.0 to behave properly on its own.

    The Views menu is only meant to view bookmarks in a different sort order (hence the name of that menu). It doesn't have any lasting effects.

  • Win 2008  WL 10.3.3 stdout appearing in .log and .out files

    Recently noticed a ballooning [ServerName].out file in the logs directory. In weblogic management console I do have it configured to redirect stdout and stderr to weblogic logging (.log file). Both the .log and .out file contain the same stdout/stderr information. I would like to eliminate the .out file if possible (since WL only rotates the .log), but cannot find where it is configured. The managed servers are NOT windows services (no -log option).
    Did not find any logging parameters in JAVA_OPTIONS or paramters in the startManagedSvc.cmd file.
    Is this something needing to be corrected at the application level? (log4j)

  • Easing in and out on the same tween

    I have a motion tween that I want to ease on both the
    beginning and end of the motion.
    As far as I can tell I can only set one value for easing and
    in the easing graph I can't add more points.
    The only way I've been able to have both ease in and out is
    to create another keyframe in the middle and apply and ease out on
    that.

    As of Flash 8 you can use the Advanced Easing Panel and shape
    the curve like a letter "S".

  • No mark in and out points at batch capturing

    I have created logged clips to my browser window but, noticed that the IN and OUT points say NOT SET.
    Is this normal?
    As I create the logged clips for batch capture shouldnt I see the IN and OUT times?

    That's normal. When you set In and Out in the Log & Capture window, those points become Media Start and Media End in the Browser. And In and Out are left as Not Set.
    The rationale is that once you've captured, you'll review your clips and place In and Out points more precisely. In case you do want to stick with Media Start and Media End as your In and Out, simply load the clip into the viewer and press X on your keyboard - that will set your In and Out (at Media Start & End) for your clip.
    Now - you know there had to be one caveat - the only time this is not the case is when you check the box to Add Handles in the Batch Capture dialog. In that case, when FCP captures the clips, it extends the Media Start and Media End by the handle amount and uses the In and Out that you specified during logging as the In & Out for that clip in the Browser.

    Means the cartridge is to low on ink to do copy and should be replaced. When was the last time you changed the cartridge? And did your software driver not tell you that you were low on ink?

  • How do I Connect both an iBook and Power Mac G5 to Windows XP Pro network?

    I have an existing Windows network at home, with a Motorola Surfborad Cable Modem, Linksys Wired Cable/DSL VPN Router with 5-port 10/100 switch (BEFVP41), Linksys Wireless G Access Point (WAP54G), Linksys Etherfast 10/100 Workgroup Switches (EZXS55W v3) and several connected devices including: two Windows Desktops (wired), a Humax TiVo (wireless), Two (2) SlimDevice Squeezeboxes (wireless), and a Microsoft X-Box game system.
    For some reason, I cannot successfully connect either a Power Mac G5 (wired) or an iBook (wireless) to the newtork and internet. In both cases, if I attempt to connect them, the router does appear to see them, but I can't get connection to the Internet.
    Also, if I try to access either the Router or the WAP via their respective Access URL's: http://10.0.1.1/ & http://10.0.1.2/ nothing happens.
    I have disconnected all the other connected devices and tried to connect them with no results.
    Re-starting the cable modem, router or WAP didn't help.
    If I connect one of the Windows PC's to the same cable I have tried unsuccessfully with the Power Mac, The Windows PC connects to both the Network and Internet immediately!
    Additionally, I have checked out the entire wiring system, which are Cat5E cables. This included re-checking all connectors and testing each wire run. All cables are "straight through" with no opens, shorts or cross0overs.
    I am sure that I am doing something wrong and that there is an "easy fix", but it's beyond my meager knowledge.
    If someone can supply me with "Step by Step", detailed instructions on how to accomplish this, please help me.

    Hi Gordy,
    Well, that's certainly some setup you've got there.
    Also, if I try to access either the Router or the WAP via their respective Access URL's: http://10.0.1.1/ & http://10.0.1.2/ nothing happens.
    I'm not sure about those URL's. Plug your PowerMac into the router , then launch Safari and type 192.168.1.100 in the address bar it should allow you to access the routers settings via the web-based utility. Please check and see if that much that works and post back.
