Windows 7 - Ctl Alt o not toggling from PS to Bridge

This a fairly new build, so may have a few setup bugs to iron out, but when I first open Photoshop I can use Ctrl Alt o to open Bridge. From there I can use the same shortcut to toggle back to Photoshop, but from there on I can no longer toggle back to Bridge. I can see the mouse cursor breifly change to busy, so something is happening, but it stays on the Photoshop Screen. The Bridge icon on the Photoshop Options bar displays the same response. That is I can see the cursor go to busy mode for a moment, but it stays in Photoshop.
If I go to Bridge by clicking on the Task Bar icon, or scrolling through the open windows with Aero, I can get back to Photoshop using Ctrl Alt o as normal.
All my Adobe apps are up to date, as are my drivers, and the above behavour is not cleared with a system restart. I guess it is not life and death, but it is the way I am used to working and switching between PS and Bridge, so I'd like to fix it.
Windows 7 Professional
X79-UD5
i7 3930K
32Gb DDR3
GeForce GTX 570
Other Adobe apps:
Premiere Pro CS5
inDesign CS5
Lightroom 3 (which I never ever use!)

Thanks Curt. Yes I have been using the shortcut for years. I can't even say for sure that it used to work with this system because I only swapped over to it a week ago. I think there is a clue in that I see the cursor change to that little annimated blue ring for a moment, so it is trying to do something. It just doesn't happen.
HEY! I just fixed it. I closed the Bridge icon that loads as a background process at start up and sits in the Windows Hidden icon pop-up in the task bar. Then I used Ctrl Alt o in Photoshop and it reported a problem and asked if I wanted to reset Bridge preferences. I said yes, and now it toggles back and forth no problem. I guess I'll have to get on with some actual work now :-(

OSD Exits to Ctl-Alt-Del after Reboot from Software Update, leaves Clients in provisioning mode

We are seeing a problem where the Windows 7 SP1 OSD wrongly exits to the Ctl-Alt-Del screen: This problem is occuring with about %25 of our Newly Imaged PCs during the Software Updates step of the Task Sequence (of which there is about 9
outstanding updates), the PCs are rebooted as 4 of these updates finish with COMPLETE_SOFT_REBOOT_NEEDED.
After the Software Updates Reboot the following errors are found:

I have checked the logs based on other forum suggestions I can say the following:
-Network adapter is getting valid address;
-I do not have a step for "Install Roles and Features";
-I can apply registry changes for each machine to take them out of Provisioning mode, and after that I dont have any problems - this is far from the solution that I hope for.

Any update on this as I am struggling with this issue for the past few days ?
Our image was built last year so when I want to recreate it, it has to do 150 updates. We don't have WSUS updates into SCCM so I had to use a wsf script to get the updates from our WSUS server.
If I image the computer without doing the updates and do them manually by running the script here is what happens :
1st execution of the script : 137 updates installed and a reboot is required
I manually reboot
2nd execution of the script : 13 updates installed and a reboot is required
I manually reboot
3rd execution of the script : 4 updates installed
I manually reboot
4th execution of the script : no updates required.
If I only do 1 execution of the script in my TS : it works fine, it installs the 137 updates but then when the PC is done imaging, it still needs the 13+4 other updates which I don't really like.
At first, I tried adding this in my TS:
WSUS 1/3
System restart (triggered by the TS)
WSUS 2/3
System restart (triggered by the TS)
WSUS 3/3
System restart (triggered by the TS)
This stops at step #2, I see it do the 137 updates and then when it reboots, it goes into provisioning mode and doesn't continue. Looks like there is an issue with the reboot so...
I have tried removing the reboot as follows
WSUS 1/3
WSUS 2/3
WSUS 3/3
This installs the 137 updates in step #1 and downloads the 13 updates in step 2 and 3 but log file says a reboot is required to install them. The TS then continues but once it meets a System restart triggered by the TS, it doesn't resume the TS and goes
also in provisionning mode.
Any idea on why it goes into provisioning mode after installing the updates ? To me, it looks like there is a probably with the state that WSUS puts the computer in, like it is pending reboot but the System restart by the TS doesn't seem to work when trying
the reboot ?
Thanks!!!!

Bootmgr compresses, ctl+alt+delete to restart

I get the above error when I try to restart my computer. I installed an AVG product that compressed a bunch of files.
I have followed the suggestion online as follows
inserted windows disc
ctl alt delete
press the blue button
press f12
selected the top option, 2: atapi cdo: hl-dt-st dvdram gsa-u20n-(s2)
Then it does to bootmgr is compressed error
sometimes it give a press f1 for set up message. I have no idea where to go from there.
Does anyone have any advice? It is entirely likely that I have the wrong windows CD.
I have ltd experience with software, so the more simple the instructions the better.

Hello,
I have been reading up on this error, and found two possible solutions:
Boot the computer from a Windows 7 installation disc, and select the "Startup Computer" from System Recovery Options to automatically fix the compressed files.
Remove the hard disk drive from the ThinkPad and connect it to another computer running Windows 7 as a secondary hard disk drive. It could be connected via a USB to SATA cable, plugged into one of the internal SATA connectors, and so forth—the type of connection does not matter as long as it's not the primary boot drive. Boot the system as you normally would, open My Computer, right-click on the drive, select Properties from the popup context menu, and on the General tab, uncheck the "Compress this drive to save disk space" option. It may take a while to run, especially over a USB connection.
Hopefully, ione of those will get you up and running without having to reformat the hard disk drive.

Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window

Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started 2 days ago. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window?
There is no plus sign and going into optins and changing settings has not worked. I have uninstall FF and reinstall-keeping my personalization-and that was no help.
Right clicking on FF Icon to open a new tab, or going up to FF drop down tab and clicking on new tab both do not work.
Help everything opens a new window not a new tab. there seems to be no way to reset this or to chose a different optin. I just downloaded new tabs at end addon and it didn't do a thing.

as a first troubleshooting step - does it work like normally when you open & run firefox in [[Safe Mode|safemode]] by pressing the shift key while you open firefox (all other instances have to be closed before)...

Hp envy 4500 will not print from windows 8. Thinks it prints, but it doesn't.

Am trying to print from my Toshiba laptop running Windows 8 to my HP Envy 4500 wirelessly. Works fine from my ipad, works fine from my desktop and laptop running Windows 7. I have uninstalled and re-installed the printer driver 5 times. Printer is recognized, has an IP addrress, and will print an internal test page. When I print to it from my Windows 8 machine, the file goes in the queue, gets a port, and then disappears as if it was printed. Nothing prints. Please help, this is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO frustrating.

My new Officejet Pro 8500a on a Windows XP machine will not print from the Internet.

I just purchased and installed an Officejet Pro 8500a all-in-one and everything seems to work fine except that the maachine will not print from the internet. I use Windows XP home and and the Firefox browser. The printer is connected directly to the computer, and is not directly connected to the Internet or any other network.

The Officejet 8500 printers take individual ink cartridges (IIC); that machine requires that all cartridges be installed to ensure that the printhead does not get damaged. Ink is used in the printer not just for printing, but maintain the printer and the printhead. One can reduce the amount of color ink the printer uses by changing the printer settings to Grayscale or use black ink only. Page 34 of the user manual shows how one can change those settings when printing documents. For further information on how ink is used in the printer; one can look as this page here where it goes into detail on the different ways that ink is used in the printer.
I would just replace the color cartridge that the printer indicates needs replacing when the machine alerts you to low ink. I would not replace all colors at once when only one is in need of replacing.
I hope that this helps.

Hi,
Try a clean installation of the flash plugin/activeX as follows.
First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
Flash Player Uninstaller.
When the download has completed, close all browser windows, open your Download folder and run the uninstaller. After this has completed, restart the notebook.
When windows has reloaded, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash. Note: You may want to deselect the option to include McAfee Security Scan Plus before downloading.
When the installation has completed, restart the notebook.
If the above doesn't correct the issue, then try the following.
First of all, download and run the Shockwave uninstaller on the link below.
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/shockwave/uninstall/win/sw_uninstaller.exe
After this has completed, restart the notebook.
When windows has fully reloaded, download and install the latest version of Shockwave on the following link.
http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
Again, after this installation, restart the notebook.

I have Photoshop Elements 9. I downloaded the plug in 6.0 and it works on the RAW files from Canon EOS 60D, but not with Canon EOS 70D. I cannot download higher versions of plug in, because I have Windows Vista and it is not supported.

You could try using the DNG converter 8.7 on Windows vista:
<Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
<Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
You then need to watch this video to get hang of it:

I want to use QuickBooks for my very snmall bussinesso the recommendation from my accountant was QuickBooks (Windows). I just do not understand enough to decide whether to buy QuickBooks for Apple or Windows and use it in the Parallels world?

I want to use QuickBooks for my very small bussiness, the recommendation from my accountant was QuickBooks (Windows). I just do not understand enough to decide whether to buy QuickBooks for Apple or Windows and use it in the Parallels world?

QuickBooks for Mac has been available again since at least 2004 (Intuit before that had done nothing with it for years). The current version is QB for Mac 2014. It's pretty much the same price no matter where you look.
The Mac version data is not directly compatible with the Windows version. Sending your data out to your business tax accountant and getting it back in is not at all easy. It's such a pain, our accountant comes here to finalize the books at year end.
There is still also a lot of Windows features for QB Pro which have never been added to the Mac version. They're all on the higher end side that larger businesses would need. I've never run into anything with the Mac version I couldn't do.
If your accountant wants ease of data transfer, then you'd be better off purchasing Snow Leopard Server and run that in Parallels. Then run the Windows version of QB in that.

Fast fromula related to oracle payroll are not called from Formula result window

Hi,
Few of the fast fromula related to oracle payroll are not called from Formula result window , please let me know how these fast formulas are called.
Example : PAY_GB_EDI_MOVDED6_FOOTER
Thanks,
Subbu.

Hi Subbu,
Some reports are handled by the PYUGEN engine as Magnetic reports.
These are old fashion reports to generate Magnetic files, like BACS EDI files etc..
select * from ff_formulas_f
where formula_name like 'PAY_GB_EDI_MOVDED6%';
If you see the above, there are 3 formulas defined for generating this report - Header, Body & Footer.
All are called in a sequence by the PYUGEN process based on what you seed in pay_magnetic_blocks.
All the logic is within these Fast formulas.
But as they're seeded there's nothing much you can do.
Cheers,
Vignesh

Newly installed Acrobat will NOT open from Creative Cloud app on Desktop using Windows 7 Pro - what's the problem?

Newly installed Acrobat will NOT open from Creative Cloud app on Desktop using Windows 7 Pro - what's the problem?

the cc desktop app is used to install and update cc programs (and a few other thinigs). but that does not include 'opening' the installed programs.
click your start button or your program files directory to find the acrobat executable to launch acrobat (and any of your other apps, adobe or otherwise).

If Layers is greyed out it possibly means that you are in Quick Mode. Select 'Expert' and all the options should become available.
Try permanently associating psd files with C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 12\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe and see if that fixes the issue. Instructions here - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows-8/choose-programs-windows-uses-default.

You really are not getting this.
"I guess I am still completely shocked that as a parent we can't download something for everyone to use."
Why do you continue to think this although we keep telling you that this is not the case.
You do NOT have to purchase anything twice. You can share the music with as many ipods as you like in your household.
The ipods are designed to sync with your computer regularly. You should have been syncing these other ipods with your computer all along, thus transferring the purchases to your computer where that music can be synced to as many ipods as you like.
Take on of the ipods with the music in it. Open itunes on your computer. Plug in the ipod. Do not sync. Click File>Transfer Purchases This will transfer the purchases from the ipod to the computer. Make sure that you have authorized your account on the computer: here are directions for that. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
Unplug the ipod.
Plug in the other ipod with purchased music. Do not sync. Click File>Transfer Purchases This will transfer purchases from the ipod to the computer.
You can now plug in any of the ipods, select what you want to sync and sync.
Have a look at the manual for the ipod. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_touch_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf
