How to enable recent items on jump list

Not sure if it of a problem or not. I would like a list of recent items on my list of jump (in fact, only for MS Word) in the task bar. I only have pinned files, but would like to be able to place a file in the list of recent files and PIN which as well. My problem is that I do not see the recent files on any list to jump from a program in the task bar. I went into the properties of taskbar (start menu/customize) and tried to click on the number of recent files, but it is zero and is grayed out so I can't change it. What should I do? Or is it a problem that requires a repair?

I've seen a few discussions about this in this forum - I don't know if this is a problem, or if there is somewhere a seting I forgot to check.

Right-click on the Start button, and then select Properties. Click on Start menu tab and check the box in front of the store and display recently items in the start menu and the taskbar.

  • How to clear recent items then right click on the Acrobat tab on the taskbar?

    When you right click on the Acrobat tab on the task bar, you've been given some options like the Pin this program to the taskbar, close this window, etc...

    Anyone know how to clear all recent items when you right-click on the Acrobat tab on the taskbar (see photo below)?

    "Remove from this list" option deletes only a single document at a time. Does anyone know how to remove it at once? Recent Articles that appears when you right-click on the taskbar is probably called jump list.

    Any help is very appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    BTW, just a note, defining the "Documents in recently used list:" zero is a not clear recent list as you can see in the screenshot below (via Edition == > == Preferences > Documents under categories)

  • How to set recent items in system preferences and have it stay with my setting

    Noticed that to happen just in the last few weeks.

    Use Pages and try to use Open > recent and all I was getting was clear Menu.

    Went into System Preferences > general and recent items is set to None.  I changed it to what should be the default value of 10, but he keeps changing to None.

    For the life of me, I can't understand how to do so that he can stay 10 or any other parameter as it keeps going back to zero.

    Appreciate the help of CIHI people!  Computer info below.

    Please, back up all data before proceeding.

    This procedure will unlock all your user (not system files) files and reset their ownership, permissions and default access controls. If you have voluntarily set special values for these attributes on any of your files, they will be be restored. In this case, either stop there, or be ready to recreate the settings if necessary. Do that after checking these settings that did not cause the problem. If none of that is meaningful to you, you need not worry about this, but do not follow the instructions below.

    Step 1

    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to step 2.

    Triple-click anywhere in the next line to this page to select this option:

    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nosappnd,noschg,nosunlnk,nouappnd,nouchg {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-

    Copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination.

    Launch the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Paste in the Terminal window by pressing Command + V. I tried these instructions only with the Safari browser. If you use another browser, you may need to press the return key after pasting.

    You will be asked your password of connection that are not displayed when you type. Type carefully, and then press return. You can get a warning to be careful. If you do not have a password, you will need to configure one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your user name "is not in the sudoers file", then you have not logged as an administrator.

    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on the number of files you have. Wait for a new line ending with a dollar sign ($) to appear, and then quit Terminal.

    Step 2 (optional)

    Take this step only if you have trouble with the phase 1, if you prefer not to consider, or if this does not resolve the problem.

    Start in recovery mode. You may be prompted to select a language, then the OS X Utilities appears.

    If you use FileVault 2, select disk utility, then select the icon for the volume FileVault startup ("Macintosh HD", unless you have given it a different name.) It will be nested under another icon of the disc. Click the Open button in the toolbar and enter your login password when you are prompted. Then quit disk utility must be returned to the main screen.

    Select

    Utilities ▹ Terminal

    in the menu bar. It will open a Terminal window. In this window, type this:

    resetp

    Press the tab key. The partial order you entered will automatically end this:

    resetpassword

    Press return. Opens a window to reset the password. You do not need to reset a password.

    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD", unless you have given it a different name) if not already selected.

    Select your username in the menu option allows you to select the account if not already selected.

    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the reset button.

    Select

    ▹ Restart 

    in the menu bar.

  • ADF MOBILE: how to add an item in the list without refresh the entire list

    Hello

    I am using this method to add an item to a list (I've already added the item to the data model):


    providerChangeSupport.fireProviderCreate (String providerKey, int newRowKey, object newValue);


    I don't want refresh the entire list, rather, I want to just add a new item to the list, that's why I want to use this method.


    I want to know, what value should I use for the second argument? i.e. 'int newRowKey '.


    Thank you


    Hello

    the event of change of provider in your case seems to actually create a new line. So the int is the rowKey (index PK or line) of the new line. There is no other choice to simply add an element to a list (ADF Mobile provides no component handles)

  • Recent items no longer appear in expose / Mission Control / Application Windows cover flow

    Until very recently, when I accessed the service "Windows Application" through the presentation, the bottom of the window of Mission control would reveal a row of recent items from the app in use.

    Now it always shows recent items, but this list does not update accurately. The ' file > open recent item ' menu is exact, but recent Articles in the statement do not match this list and are not updated with the most recent articles.

    I found a few posts on this topic of 2012, but they are a little dated, and none of them received very clear answers.

    I use El Capitan on a 2.6 GHz MacBook Pro.

    Can anyone help with this?

    I tried to reset the permissions and reindexing of these records. This doesn't seem to work.

    Leave everything, stop, start in Safe Mode, log on and check how things work, then restart normally.  The safe boot through Mode erases caches and (temporarily) disables modules, and which erases sometimes bizarre behavior.

  • Flex 3 - problem with the selection of an item in the list by default

    How to select an item in the list by default

    I tried to stuff like that-

    listid.selectedIndex = somevalueinmyprogram - 1; 0

    but when I debug what I get

    and by default is not selected, why so? [I already checked for what is obvious that somevaluefrommyprogram is not equal to 0]

    Help!

    It's a timing issue, as I told you before. As you know flex applications run in Flash Player, and FP works asynchronously, so what happens, is that when you try to put in place the selectedIndex property data is not yet in the dataProvider. What you can do is use the handleCentersListResult and inside of this function the selectedIndex value after completing centersXLC

  • How to add 'Frequent' "Jump List" section in FF 23.0.1?

    Looking to add pages in the right click menu of the FF icon. I would like to be able to change what appears in the "Frequent" part in particular.

    Several months ago there was a bug where Firefox 21 arrested in the jump list update. When I did the research at this time, I reached the following conclusions:

    (1) the section "Frequent" in the list of shortcuts matches high points listed by the 'Most visited' bookmark ('smart folder").

    (2) Firefox manages a binary data file in this folder (because it's a binary file, it can not easily be changed):

    %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\CustomDestinations
    

    (My file is named 969252ce11249fdd.customDestinations - ms but yours may have a different name... not sure how these names are chosen)

    Therefore, I am not optimistic about the control of the selection of items in the section Frequent of the Jump list.

    You can add bookmarks to your list of Firefox shortcuts, but for names of control (by default, the URL is displayed), you must use a two step process:

    (1) bookmark drag on the desktop or another folder in Windows Explorer, rename as desired.

    (2) made drag drop on the pinned, then make Firefox icon right click to confirm that it has been added to the Favorites section.

    After that, you can delete the shortcut on the desktop.

  • Recent articles: is it possible to retrieve a list of recent items passed?

    Is it possible to retrieve a list of recent past items.  I am trying to determine if a file has been accessed and then removed from the list of recent items.  If possible, how do you do that?

    The list is stored in C:\Users\\Recent and there may be different lists for each user.  There is no real way to know if an item has been removed from the list, unless it is in the trash (which is unlikely).

    To check the Ffichier, go to Windows Explorer and navigate to the file that you are concerned about. Right-click on the headers, click more and add the access Date column.  Then you can see the last time someone accessed the file.  It's just as good as the list of recent files to find out when a person access to a file (and it cannot be deleted without deleting the file).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
