Windows 7 Toolbar displays generic icon, not Acrobat icon

I hve used Acrobat forever. However, recently, the Windows 7 toolbar has been displaying only a generic icon, not the Acrobat icon, when the program is open. I have not discovered yet how to change the icon in windows 7 (Microsoft always tries to keep such things secret because they are control freaks).

How is the SD card formatted?
Maybe it needs to be in a format that the windows machine will understand, like FAT32.

How do I get the iMac to display thumbnails and not an icon of jpeg photos?

Hi folks,
I just purchased my first Mac, an Imac. I was browsing through a folder, using Finder, containing photos files from my latest trip.
Under Windows, I used to tell Windows Explorer to show thumbnails of the photos.
How do I get the iMac and Finder to show the thumbnails? It only wants to show a silly jpg icon which doesn't tell me much about what the photo looks like.
Thanks.

That was quick!
I have a folder of JPEG photos on my HD. This folder was created over a year ago when I was using Panther.
When I open it and select "Show View Options" I get a different window with options like "Date Created" and "Date Modified" etc.
There is no preview option or a slider to alter the icon sizes - merely a choice of large or small icons.

I want multiple Firefox windows open w/different View settings - toolbars displayed in one, not in other. With the new version, I can no longer do that ?

I want to remove the toolbars in one open instance of Firefox but not in others.......this was possible in the prior version. Now if I change the settings in one instance, it automatically changes in the other open Firefox windows. How I can I make this work as it did before the upgrade? Thanks, Kris

Thanks a million! It was not intuitive to "swipe" the open applications up but it works perfectly!!
Thank you

Connecting to Windows Server displays 'alias could not be found' error...

We have a number of Macs all of which browse and connect to a shared Windows network... One Mac however, a 10.3.9 PoweMac G5, displays the 'alias could not be found' when trying to connect to one of the network servers (we have two, one is NT4, the other is WinSvr2003, we cannot connect this Mac to NT).
Any thoughts on why this particular Mac will not connect to this one specific server via the Finder? (we can connect however via GO->Connect to Server, just not through the Finder Network browser).
Thanks in advance.

Hi Al-
1) Is your mac configured in the same "workgroup" as the PC's? (Look in Utilities>DirectoryAccess>SMB/CIFS>Configure). Workgroup must match, and try putting name using ALL CAPS.
2) Instead of using this alias, have you tried Using Finder "Go" Menu?
Go>Connect To Server> SMB://[PCname]/[Foldername]
There are some security settings which may need changed, over on the PC's. Search this group for 'digital signing'.

Menu toolbar icons not displayed in colour when deployed on the Web

Hello!
We are developing an application using Forms6i on Windows NT.
Our problem is that menu toolbar icons are not displayed in colour when the application is deployed on the Web using lookAndFeel = generic. This is the case both when using Microsoft IE5 and Netscape 4.5. When lookAndFeel = oracle, however, the icons are displayed in colour.
The icons are stored as *.gif files in the same directory as the application *.html file. It does not help to create a virtual path /web_icons/ in the www listener and edit the parameter default.icons.iconpath in the file Registry.dat.
When running the application as client/server, the menu toolbar icons are displayed in colour as expected.
Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

Hi,
I got the same problem and I didn't figure out, how to solve this problem.
But did you try to printout the form anyway? I guess you will see the icons on the printout, won't you?

The acrobat icon is not display in my email client after installation, therefore I am unable to open

I installed the newest acrobat reader in my iPad2, but the acrobat icon is not showing on the top row of my email client as adobe described in "getting started". Since iBooks doesn't support PDF how do I resolve this so I can open my docs? Do I need to uninstall and reinstall the app?

For some documents, the Mail app will attempt to show a "preview" of the document in the message. Unfortunately, sometimes this preview is just a blank white page so it's "invisible". Can you please try long pressing on the white space at the end of the email and letting up your finger. You may see a "open in" option upon doing this. If this doesn't work, please send a sample of the message to us at [email protected]
Thanks!

Dreamweaver CS4 displays generic icon

This is not a functional problem, but being a visual perso
n, its driving me crazy. Dreamweaver CS4 displays a generic icon on my desktop, o
n the start menu, and also in the installation directory. All of the other CS4 programs (from Design Premium) display properly. I have tried reinstalling Dreamweaver, replacing the icon manually ("change icon") and done a disk cleanup to get rid of any temp and cached files but to no avail.
Any idea what is causing this or how to fix? I am running Windows 7 Pro.
Thanks
Donna S

I have the same problem except with ALL jpegs, not just small ones. Other file types (pdfs, eg) preview just fine in cover flow, and I am able to open all the jpgs by themselves in any program, they just don't render in cover flow.
I think this happened in conjunction with the upgrade to 10.5.1.
Any help would be most appreciated!

Cinnamon taskbar app icon not displaying properly for Sublime Text

Cinnamon is displaying Sublime Text's icon in the taskbar as a question mark. This is the only app it does it with and I'm having trouble finding out what's causing it to attempt to fix it. Different themes have no effect. Other programs installed from the AUR display just fine. The icon displays just fine in the main menu, but when I open it, the taskbar icon is just a '?'. Also I've tried this on Linux Mint 17.1 (also running Cinnamon 2.4) and the issue is not present there.
The closest I have come to figuring out what is causing the problem is through the looking glass. Under the Windows tab and the Application column, my other apps that are displaying fine have .desktop values, but Sublime Text is showing up as "<untracked>". However I can't right click, double click, or otherwise edit this value.
I have included two screenshots, the first shows that Sublime Text shows up fine in the main menu but not in the taskbar and the second shows Looking Glass.

I think I got the solution,
On the Desktop Entry tag of the .desktop file add the following
StartupWMClass=subl3
By running, as in one of the references,
$ xprop WM_CLASS
and then clicking on the Sublime Text application the following will show
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "subl3", "Subl3"
In my case it was subl3 so, replace with one of the results from command.
Here is the reference:
The .desktop file from libreoffice-writer as it in previous iterations it also had a similar problem

Tool/Menu bar icons not active - Acrobat in BROWSER

I have installed the SP1 update of windows 7. I have the latest version of Acrobat 10. I also have the latest version EXPLORER (9) & FIRE FOX (4). The PDF file comes into the BROWSER & the Acrobat icons (print, save) show up on the tool/menu bar but are not active. The commands are active with the RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON.
Also, links to other web sites (URL's) within the PDF document are not active. ie. Does not LINK.
If I force ACROBAT to open as an independent program everything works OK.

Have you solved this yet? Perhaps trashing the preference file for the menubar would solve this? Go to the preferences folder-- /Library/Preferences --and trash this file:
com.apple.systemuiserver.plist

Acrobat icon in Windows Explorer is wrong

Hi,
I've got Adobe Acrobat 7 installed, but for some reason the Acrobat icon does not appear in Windows explorer. What appears is the 'unrecognized' program icon. PDF files still open with Acrobat, but I've noticed I cannot use Windows search to search for text strings in the PDF files. I tried reinstalling, installing Acrobat Reader, changing to other program icons and changing back, increasing the icon cache size, but I still have the same problem. I even downloaded and installed a trial version of Acrobat 9, but the problem persists.
Thanks in advance for any help.

You are talking about 2 different things. Sometimes the icons seem to change - apparently a MS OS problem. Anyway, you can fix the icon from Windwos Explere to going to the TOOLS>Folder Options>file types menu and selecting a new ICON for PDF files.
As for the text search, I think you are talking about the limited search that is the default with MS Win XP and later. There is a flag in the registry you can change to fix this so that XP will search ALL files, not just the ones in their favorite list (i.e. - OFFICE files). I ran into this a year ago after looking for a file I new existed but not being able to find it for almost a year (sometimes I am bad about filing some files). I found the flag and within 2 minutes found the file. You may still have some problems with a PDF since it is a binary file and the information should be able to be seen directly by the OS. You will have to do a search for the flag as I do not remember it.

HT1277 my email displays but will not open, just the spinning icon

My email displays but will not open in my laptop or ipad. I just keep getting the spinning icon. I can recieve emails on my iphone. Any suggestions?

If Mail.app will launch on OS X and you can get to the Preferences settings and related, see the Apple Mail.app troubleshooting article for some suggestions. From there, get that working, then compare the differences between what's working and connecting, and what's not — the Connection Doctor and the Activity window should give you a pretty good idea of where things are hanging up — if not directly what's wrong — when troubleshooting the OS X Mail.app connection.

In the finder window, column view, I double click on icon, eg. a spread sheet, and document will not open since I updated to OSXv10.8.2. Help anyone?

In the finder window, column view, I double click on icon, eg. a spread sheet, and document will not open since I updated to OSXv10.8.2. Help anyone?

Hi Ron,
Highlight one in the Finder & do as Get Info on it, what does open With say to use?
What did you update 10.8.2 from exactly? 10.6.8 maybe?

When NOT using icons on the toolbar, side-bar drop-down for additional toolbar items has disappeared with Firefox 4 and accessing these items requires clicking 'Bookmarks', then 'Show all bookmarks' then 'Toolbar'--ugh, what a pain.

On older versions of Firefox, Toolbar links ran across the top of my screen, with a drop-down to the far right which would show additional Toolbar items for which there was not room on the screen.
With Firefox 4, if I'm not using icons (text only), the dedicated Toolbar drop-down is gone and I have to first click 'Bookmarks' to the right of the Toolbar ribbon, then 'Show All Bookmarks', then 'Toolbar' in order to access my additional Toolbar links. Could anyone have made it any harder?
Why doesn't someone just restore the drop-down at the far right of the Toolbar so that all of my Toolbar items (which I prefer to keep separately from the regular Bookmark items, else I would have just plain bookmarked those items in the first place) are readily accessible?

You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden (View > Toolbars > Customize or right-click a toolbar).<br />
If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or hold down the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.<br />
You only see the Bookmarks menu button if the Menu bar is hidden.

File icons not displaying in dock folders

I'm having trouble seeing File icons in the folders added to the dock in Lion. For example I am used to seeing a file icon that isa preview of the file e.g. for a pdf the icon would show the content of that pdf. For many files (but not all) I just see a black box with a white dashed line around it (see image).Eventually these icons may refresh and display properly and if I open the folder in finder the icon is correct but not in stacks. It's not a file type specific issue because in the attached image some jpegs are displaying other are not. Any advice?

Solved.
