Failure of Options when you click the Dock icon to include 'Desktop in the display (number).

Failure of Options when you click the Dock icon to include 'Desktop in the display (number).

I use an iMac 24 "mid-2007. The help documentation tells me how to assign an application to a space is to use this Option. But it does not, while the other three are. Is this an error or something that can be explained? Could there be a work around? My OS is El Capitan.

Hi peterwhi,

I understand you are trying to set an application to open its windows on a particular space. To do this, move to the space that you want to use for the desired application, and then choose 'The Office' in the list of options you mentioned see (under Options).

OS X El Capitan: working in multiple spaces
https://support.Apple.com/kb/PH21872

The option that you describe as missing is displayed only if you have connected an additional external display to your iMac and would set the app to open on the iMac screen or the external display.

Office on the screen [number]: the application opens in the current space on a specific screen (if more than one display is available).

Sincerely

    You can change your shortcut on the desktop Firefox with two starting URLS. To try:

    • Shortcut on the desktop: right-click on the icon, choose Properties
    • Icon taskbar pinned: clic click right on the icon, right click in Mozilla Firefox, click on properties

    Windows normally selects the shortcut tab. If this is not the case, go ahead and click on the shortcut tab.

    You will see the target highlighted. On 64-bit Windows, which is usually either not less the following:

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
    

    For the specific shortcut launch pages, you can add them to the end, for example:

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -url "http://www.dilbert.com/" -url "http://www.gocomics.com/pearlsbeforeswine"

    After OK'ing the Properties dialog box, you can test everything right now to confirm that Firefox is now launching a window with tabs. Either:

    • Double-click the shortcut on the desktop
    • right click on taskbar icon pinned, click Mozilla Firefox

    I use Windows xp. In Windows Explorer. A dated file say 12/02/2000. When you click the folder, the files in the folder bear different date. Why is it so. To update the files, we should see the dates of the files instead of the dates of the folder. right? Why is there such a difference?

    My copy of Windows XP works the same as yours.  Apparently the date folder is not updated when the content is, that fact make some sense as the folder itself is not updated when new content is created in the it.

  • Layers down when you click the box 3d, motion blur, etc.

    I looked for an answer to this question, but couldn't find anything, so...

    Since the upgrade 2015.3, any time I click to enable or disable an option in the boxes for things like 3d, motion blur, lock the layer, interpolation, as well as other simple actions, rather than just by turning the option or not, the whole layer falls showing transformation, effects and audio data.  This happened with another version, but Adobe hastened to repair so it does not lead me to the point of madness.  This time, however, they seem to ignore, or don't care and are just ranking as "in order to help with the flow of work" which he KILLS my workflow, it helps any...

    My question is, does anyone know how to solve this problem, or if Adobe is working on a fix?  Today is the day, he pushed me over the top when I have a comp with 40 + layers and I need to activate or deactivate the motion blur that I saw... I hate Apple Motion, but if there is no solution, and before I go ballistic eager to break through the wall of After Effects, it's my option if no one can help me.

    Please help.  I hate interruptions in workflow.

    Thank you!

    Dan

    Thanks for your help, but I'm not sure that we are talking about the same issue.

    It seems to be the same problem. your layers have audio when clearly, they do not need to have the audio. Text, shapes and the whirlpool down problem. read Tim Kurkoski answer in the link I gave you:Re: new in After Effects 13.8.1 - with audio shape layers!

    The bug occurs when you work in a model that has been composed before and this model contains a layer with audio, when you add a new layer to this model (any type of layer except the cameras or lights), if this layer should not have audio it will win the audio properties in any case. When you click on a layer switch (for example, solo, lock, a blur of movement, etc.). these layers with superfluous Audio properties will automatically be twirl open their properties.

    See the workaround suggested and if it's a big problem for you, as I have written before - work in 2015.2 until it is fixed

  • Firefox loads, icon on the bar of tasks but when you click the slide of graphics off to the right, but does not fill the screen & when you right-click again, falls back into the icon

    Firefox, Thunderbird and Quicken were active when I loadad & ran a slot machine game. When I left the game & click on icon to return to Firefox full screen, I could see the flash of the image to the right of my screen and disappear. When I clicked on the icon in the taskbar, the reverse happened - the image flashed from the right down to the icon. When I hover the mouse over the icon, the open screens appear with the red X to close, but the same thing happens when I click on this box. Two other programs that have been opened, while the game was active work correctly, only Firefox has been affected. I can't open the program to access one of the menu items that I can't get the image of the screen on the monitor. I did uninstall and reinstall a freshly downloaded copy, I had to use IE, as I am now) but with the same results when I run. I did chose to save my settings, so if something has changed here so maybe that's the problem.

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • You can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

    Thank you.

    Hi AmyWilliams,

    1. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

    2 are you able to open the program when you right-click on it and select open?

    Step 1:

    You can check the following link and try to run the Fixit and check:

    Difficulty of broken desktop shortcuts and common system maintenance tasks

    Step 2:

    Given that this issue has started recently, you can also try a system restore and check.

    You can try to perform a restore of the system to a prior restore point you have been affected by the issue.

    Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:

  • Message 'the underlying connection was closed unexpectedly' when you enter the serial number for the weather and wildlife program.

    Original title: message "the underlying connection was closed unexpectedly.

    I use an updated, newly installed Windows 7 Home Premium from Windows XP. I downloaded and installed a program called the weather and wildlife and when I enter my serial number for verification in order to access the program I get an error box that says: "the underlying connection was closed: the connection was closed unexpectedly."

    I tried to disable the firewall, but this does not solve the problem. I do not have antivirus software installed so that either cannot interfere.
    Any suggestion will be highly appreciated!

    Hello Srimadhwa,

    Thanks for your suggestions. The internet connection works properly on the computer.
    When I wrote my first question I had difficulties to access weather data and wildlife in every web browser I've used. For example, I tried to download the software from the download page of W & W and in Explorer, it would get a page that says "Cannot display Page". Other browsers had other types of errors. Finally, the company sent me a file of the program that I installed but then when I entered the serial number, I would get the message "the underlying connection was closed unexpectedly.
    This morning I tried again to download the program from the W & W page and also to enter my serial number for the installed program and it seems that the W & W database is connected successfully, but now I get a message saying that the serial number is invalid (which is certainly not the case).
    Since for some unknown reason the databased WW can now access my computer I have now will contact the company to see why my serial number is rejected.
    Thanks a lot again!

    Are you DoubleClicking the file? If you are, try just by clicking on it.

    If you are just by clicking on it, and it includes only, something is wrong.

    The following is a general list of things you can try when the question is not in a specific file (you tried/made some of them already). 1 and 2) are easier for temporary strangenesses and 3) and 4) specifically preferences might be corrupt); ((5) is a list in itself and 6) is the last resort.

    (1) close Illy and open again.

    (2) restart the computer (you can do that up to 3 times);

    (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift during startup (easy, but irreversible);
