All links to external programs open my homepage instead of the target URI

All links to external programs has recently began to open my homepage rather than the target URI. This only happens when Firefox is my default browser, not when other browsers are set to be the default browser. I see this more often with links in e-mail messages in Thunderbird, but I also reproduced the problem by inserting a link in a document of LibreOffice Writer and clicking on it.

Looks like a problem with the default browser where the command is missing %U parameter that caused the link not not to be send to Firefox.

  • Normal (internal) link to external site opens in Safari on iOS after upgrade to cli - 6.0.0

    I just tested this again with a recompilation; It still does not work...

    My app has a normal link, (a href), to an external site, which should open in the application itself. This works very well in Android. But in the iOS, it opens externally in Safari when it is compiled with cli - 6.0.0. Compiled with cli - 5.2.0 that it opens in the app, no problem. I have the plugin added whitelist and origin allow browsing, attempts to authorize and access are all set to *.

    So I think it's a bug.

    See also: -in-safari-on-ios-after-upgrade-to-cli-6-0-0 http://community.phonegap.com/nitobi/topics/normal-internal-link-to-external-website-opens

    Found!

    After being pointed in the right direction on Jira... it was the attempts to authorize that causes this behavior.

    Using

    or leave this entire string out of the config, causes an iOS open safari.

    However, by using the following in the config works correctly:

    And I thought using the * would be the easy way to configure this :-)

  • Is there a way to link PDF open in Acrobat instead of the browser?

    I want to make a PDF open in Acrobat instead of the browser, so that the user can see its interactive features. Is there a way to do this in Muse? Or is it always pass on the user's browser settings?

    It would depend on the plugin installed, if the browser doesn't have a player plugin then pdf does not open in the browser.

    Not much can be done through Muse, but you can try some settings of pdf password etc.

    Thank you

  • Some programs open new window instead of a new tab in the open window

    Firefox 17.0.1. I have the option "Open new windows in a new tab instead" together, I use the addon of Tree Style Tab 0.14.2012111201 (and other unrelated tabs or windows), and I have several profiles. It seems that since I started to use several profiles some programs (help of MediaMonkey, for instance) insist on opening a new window of Firefox. If I select one or several profiles currently open it says "Current usage profile". Some programs who want to open a website to view their help files open a tab in the current browser, as window expected and desired. But most programs cause choose it display a profile box.

    Make sure that you do not start Firefox with the - No.-remote switch or have defined the MOZ_NO_REMOTE = 1 environment variable (Control Panel > system > advanced > environment variables).

    If you need to have several open profiles at the same time then start the following instances with the - no - remote line switch.

    You can't send links from other programs to a Firefox instance that is started with the - non-interrupteur to distance.
    In this case, you must drag the links in a Firefox window or paste the link into the address bar.

  • How can I get Safari to open in my homepage instead of the last page, I looked?

    Hi everyone, how can I get Safari to open in my home page or a page chosen instead of the last page I was looking at all the time? I keep trying to change this in Safari preferences, but I'm obviously something wrong? It doesn't matter what changes I make in the Safari preferences no matter what I do everytime I open Safari it opens just the last page I was looking at all the time?

    See you soon.

    Normally, you just go to Safari - attendance - general and set up your homepage.

    However, if she does not work for you, try the following steps.

    Go to the Safari menu (at the top right of your screen next to the Apple icon), choose 'Quit Safari'

    Press the "Shift" key and while holding this button on your unique keyboard, click the icon of Safari on your Dock.

    Open Safari - Preferences - Privacy - data to remove any Web site.

    Open the menu to go with the Option (Alt) key - library - key locate Safari folder and place it on your desktop. Restart your Mac, open Safari and delete the file from your desktop.

  • Scheduler external program string type does not manage the credential name

    Hello

    I have the following Setup: a basic string containing the type of program 'external '.

    11 g, for the launch of work on the 'external' program, we now use the new feature 'name of credentials' (no installation is necessary for the o/s file level as in 10 g).
    He was actually very good.

    But when I call it a string containing the external program, I got an error when setting credential_name parameters: ORA-27351: conflicting values of the attributes of CREDENTIAL_NAME and JOB_TYPE task.

    So I call the string without the name credentials and the external program is managed, but using 10 g 'old style' method based on the configuration of file db (external program is therefore launched whith user defined in externaljob.ora). You also lose the benefit of the credential to submit external stains on different users.

    It seems that the management of the credential_name is not handled in the CHAIN. It's a bug, dev missing or there is an option for this?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    You probably want to do is step identification information.

    You can do it by using alter_chain on the particular stage with the attribute value credential_name.

  • How do I view his homepage instead of the previous session of Firefox?

    Hello

    I'm having a little trouble because when I close Firefox and reopen it, instead of the blank page, I put to show you me, show me my previous session. I shot all my addons and it has started in Mode safe, but it still does the same thing.

    I checked all the settings I can find, but nothing works. I have the latest version of Firefox.

    Any suggestions?

    One of my addons is the session manager but disabled, Firefox does the same thing.

    Thanks in advance

    Niels

    You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that affects the pref browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once true value.

    You can remove the user.js file.

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

    Windows hides certain default file extensions.
    Among them are .html, .ini and .js, .txt, so you can see only file name without the file extension.
    You can see the type of actual file (file extension) in the properties of the file via the context menu in Windows Explorer.

  • All links that do not open in the same window now open a new window. CTRL + click and Middle click, as well as menu popup 'opens in a new tab' all open link in a new window. It started after the last (9.0.1) update. Thank you!

    The only method I found to open a new tab is to copy the URL, press Ctrl + T, and then paste the URL and go.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

  • CS4 all apps are broken when opening and Mac cannot recognize the installation CD to reinstall.

    All my CS4 Design Suite applications are breaking when opening. In addition, my Mac won't let me not uninstall to reinstall as my G5 Mac OS 10.4.11 will not identify anything much with Adobe products. I use these apps (legal originals) since January 09 without problem. Recently received an InDesign file to a PC user who must have been corrupted that he started to crash InDesign. Now, everything crashes. Help!

    You probably don't want to publish your personal information in your posts.

    A PC virus are not likely a Mac. I don't even have anti-virus software.

    because the software does not work in an account there are 2 possibilities. We know its not corrupted prefs because a new account did not work. We not have some other corruption in the user account. so we narrowed it down to the software or the operating system. If it was the applications one or two of them should work. so I'd say it's something to do with the system.

    My next step would be to do an Archive and install of the operating system then update. In this way, you keep all your settings and applications but install a new system and a user account. If that's not it I would reinstall the Creative Suite.

  • Dreamweaver CS6 tries to open Fireworks CS5 instead of the CS6 Fireworks

    Creating cloud - CS6 Dreamweaver and Fireworks CS6

    Windows 7

    In Dreamweaver CS6, when highlighting a picture and clicking on Edit/Pencil from the properties at the bottom of the Dreamweaver CS6 tab I get the error message below. I used to have Fireworks CS5, but it was removed when I started using Fireworks CS6. As a side note... If I right click on a photo the open with menu comes up with Fireworks appears twice. Neither indicates which version of fireworks, they are, but 1 is Fireworks CS5 and the 2nd is the CS6 Fireworks. Of course the link to Fireworks CS5 does not work because it is so more on my PC.

    I checked my folder by default, and they are all configured to open the CS6 Fireworks... In fact there is nothing in the file Association that says CS5.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled CS6 Dreamweaver and Fireworks CS6 multiply times.

    I checked my control panel configuration/programs and features, and there is nothing here indicating all Adobe CS5 programs are on my PC

    I spent at the file location below and there is no Adobe CS5 programs it as he says...
