  • How to change icons in my favorites toolbar?

    I'm migrating from IE to Firefox. So far, I really like the overall look of the interface, and I like the ability to create to look and work the way I want it.

    I was hoping I could customize my favorites by creating my own icons files I have in Internet Explorer. For example, in IE I can do a right-click on the bookmark in Favorites toolbar, select properties from the context menu, then click the button change icon, and I can choose any file icon I created. The chart appears in the bookmark. I love it! Can I do this in Firefox?

    Thank you for any information,

    Firefox does not have this feature by default, you can add this functionality with this add-on.

    Hello

    1. How are you sure that you change the individual file extension and not the entire folder?
    2. how exactly you try this?

    To change a name of file, all you have to do is right click on the file, and then click Rename, instead of the path you describe in the thread.

  • DNG Converter is not able to open the cr2 (greyed icons) files.

    DNG Converter not able to open the cr2 (greyed icons) files if they are on the disc or the office. With the help of Mac El Capitan, CC, Canon 6 d. Used to work on the earlier Mac OS. Similarly, the "get photos from camera" button in cc Bridge does not detect any photos or devices. What needs to be put in place for the DNG Converter recognise once again my cr2 files?

    It's apparently a problem with El Capitan. See this thread:

    Copy of the correct answer: ' discovered Adobe Bridge CC with Mac OS 10.11 (El Capitan) does not work with many USB devices to import images (including iPhone). " Apple said: "the USB stack is completely redesigned to improve stability and performance compared to Mac OS 10.10. Applications and third-party drivers for vendor-specific USB devices may require modification. "This is something APPLE has changed, that I hope that Adobe can answer, because now there is no real solution. »

  • How can I change the unrecognizable FrameMaker file format?  Why has he become unrecognizable after changing the file name?

    I update an existing project in the FrameMaker10, which is located in a structure of book.  I changed the names of the files in the directory, they upgrade 11 FrameMaker and saved.  When I try to add them to the book (whose name I also updated) a problem for some files. When I try t add them to the book file, I get an error message that says that the book file is unrecognizable.  (It allows me to add it, but it appears in the file book with an icon that has a blue "M" in there.)  Why is that happening and how can I change these files to normal FrameMaker files?  Thank you.

    Try to open the problem files using a text editor or viewer of files to see what the first bytes contain. Contains all the binary files valid FM FM 11 in the first bytes of the file.

    During the updating of the books, it is sometimes better just to create a new address book file and add files to it.

    When you rename files in a book, changes at the level of the system will break any links/cross-references between files, so it is always best to use the option rename book in the file to change the names of files FM. This will keep the correct links.

  • Content presenter change icon does not appear not

    I'm relatively new in this area... I have an ADF application where I have the UCM connection defined. I have expanded the files of the Complutense University of MADRID in the connection of Jdeveloper palette and dropped an image from a folder in the repository of the University Complutense of MADRID as a content presenter taskflow in my page jsff fragment. The page fragment has customizable page, customizable Panel etc. for customizations. A taskflow including this page fragment is deposited in a jspx page. When I run the page, I could see the picture displayed. But when I press control SHIFT C, I could just see 2 icons (manage and update Web content) and not edit the icons where I expect to select a different image of the University Complutense of MADRID when running?

    Maybe, with site studio region def / templates, this might work. If I go with Site studio to present content, I have to create region def, model and additional data for this requirement files. I expect something similar as when you drag the taskflow content presenter of the catalogue of resources on the Webcenter portal, it allows you to select a picture on the single content item selection during execution.

    I want to just choose a different image of the University Complutense of Madrid when running through content presenter without studio site. This is the expected behavior, or the problem may be due to any security of the Complutense University of Madrid. I checked the security group of the item of content in public and a free State. rebuild the Index collection.

    Concerning
    Prabhu

    Change icon appears only for HTML content or appropriate data file.
    If you drag and drop an image, the installation will not work and you will not be able to choose a different picture.
    If, however, you want to select another image in the CP, you don't have to do it in input mode (CtrlC Caps), but in edit mode (ctrl shift) e and tap the icon change Presenter content. This will allow you to select another image of the Complutense University of MADRID.

    You can find more information in my tutorial: http://www.yonaweb.be/webcenter_11g_ps3_tutorial_introduction_content_integration and the next part for data files.

  • Reader Adobe XI changes all file associations in Windows 7 Professional 64 bit

    Yesterday, my desktop computer changes all files on the computer of Adobe associations. Of course, this made my computer useless. After consultation with Microsoft technical support. We have uninstalled (thank goodnes I had another user profile) Adobe and all returned to normal. Technical support is a malware and virus scan and found nothing.

    This morning I went to install Adobe again and it's the same thing. I can't run Adobe on my machine. It worked fine until yesterday.

    What should do? I need Adobe like everything else does.

    You talk about this problem?

  • IMac, how to stop the white icon files when creating new folders?

    Whenever I create a new folder, the folder contains these white icon files that end up getting deleted. Is there a way to prevent this?

    Thank you

    If you create a new folder with the Finder, there is no hierarchy, you get a single empty, empty folder icon, if you create a new folder in the Terminal with the following syntax blue, there is hierarchy.

    # Do the new folder has with B folder it contains. And C in B and D in C files.

    $ mkdir Pei A, B, C, D

    # Just make folder a.

    $ mkdir A

    Are you using a utility Finder replacement, or creating folders from an application or a script?

  • How to change a file name in the Photos? (no title)

    I know how to change the title of a photo in the Photos.  But I do not see how you change a file name.  Can anyone help?

    Photos will not change an imported file.  The original master image file is preserved. You can't even change the file name.

    To change the name of the file, export the Photos photo: file > export, and then specify a different file name in the export Panel.

    Re-import the renamed picture, then delete the first version you imported.

    Hello

    I like the 3D icons and bright and I'm working on for the past 6 years.

    To Yosemite, I used Candybar (part of it), of LiteIcon and change permissions on 'Get information' in the order superior use my icons favorite.

    This last step is the most important, but now, with EL Capitan Osx 10.11 system doesn't let me change these permissions because, even as an administrator, it is forbidden.

    I am very angry and I think that this situation is a violation of freedom of expression.

    Apple support could not help me.

    FWIW, you can turn off System Protection (SIP) integrity that should allow you to change icons. It is not something I would recommend but if you care more icons of security that belongs to you. It is pretty easy to know how to do.
