How to reset browser save as download dialog box to sort by name?

When I save a file which I am downloading Internet Explorer or Opera, a save dialog box under opens. Ordinarily, the folders and files in this box are listed in alphabetical order. Recently, they have been down. The order seems random, but it seems that the most recently viewed files/folders are listed last. I can right-click and then click rearrange icons by---> name to the names of folders and files in alphabetical order. I have to do it every time.

Is there a way to reset something in the windows, then the default will be for the folders and files to be sorted by name, when I first open the dialog box save as?

I am running XP SP3, IE 8.0, Opera 11.01.

Found the solution here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/229070.

It turns out that this is not just a browser problem, which can also affect open and save as dialog boxes in some other programs.

  • How to call browser/save as / download window?

    Hello

    I want the user to click on a link with href to an external file that would open a browser save as window. Is this possible with webworks for bb10?

    I tried to use the download for tag, but it does not work.

    Thank you

    It's does not work because as you have discovered, the browser will play the file design.

    If the file transfer API is not what you're hoping it's right now then I suggest that you take a look at XHR. You can get the events of progression. It looks like you're going. Note that it will be more work than the API file transfer you will need to manually save you the blob from the file downloaded in the file system.

    Here is a link to the best XHR2 article ever written, it covers a large number of different use cases: http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/file/xhr2/

  • If I click on a hyperlink in text file, I want a download dialog box, not for firefox to try to open it (> 20MB).

    When I click on a hyperlink to a text file large, how I can change the default behavior of FireFox to open a "File-Save" dialog box directly?
    On the contrary, FireFox tries to open the file and for very large text files, 25 MB or more, which is excruciatingly slow. I use a program to treat these files in a few seconds, if only I could download them.

  • How dio I remove the unwanted of dialog boxes when opening files in FM9

    Everytime I open the fm files in FM9 I am bombarded by a plethora of dialog boxes such as the ADD/EDIT VARIABLE, DITA CROSS_REFERENCE didn't intend to use. During the day, it must lead to probably over 100 clicks to get rid of these while being very annoying. Often, the work area is completely hidden by these dialog boxes. Is there a way to permanently delete these things and only open when we really want to do something like modifying a variable? Thank you very much.

    1roach,

    The feature you're looking for in FM9 is called "Workspaces." Your workspace is selected by using the dropdown in the top right of the window of FM, left minimize/maximize/close buttons. Simply set up the workspace exactly how you like it by opening the dialog boxes (or "pods") you use regularly, close the pods, you have not, fusion as the pods together as you wish, and moving everything exactly where you want. At this time, click this menu workspace and select "Save the workspace." The name that you want, and the next time that you open a document in FM, it should initiate this workspace automatically (assuming that it was the last workspace you had open... He memorizes the last workspace you used).

    For example, I put in spaces of work different for when I'm in the office or work at home (I have larger monitors at work, so I can use the space differently), but also of different workspaces for different phases of the drafting process. For example, I have a workspace for 'creation' which includes the pods for the Structure, elements, Variables, markers and cross reference. I then have a different workspace for working with graphics which has more pods based graphics, and another for the creation of index that has the pods that I use the most when indexing.

    Do a quick search in the help files of FM for "workspace." You will find a ton of info here. Indeed, if your help system is "online" mode and you select "include the results of the community" when searching, the first entry should be a blog entry titled "Workspaces in FrameMaker 9" on May 26, 2009... and the opening of the line is "Tired of loading dialog boxes, modeless, every time that you start your FrameMaker? Sounds familiar...

    Good luck!

  • How to freeze my application until the dialog box is closed?

    Hi everyone, I wonder how to freeze my application until the dialog box is closed.

    Please look at my code first:

    inputDialog=new InputReadMessageNumberDialog(selectedGroup.getName(),msg,numPost,choices,values);
    UiApplication.getUiApplication().invokeLater(new Runnable()
    {
      public void run()
      {
       inputDialog.show();
       if(inputDialog.doModal()==Dialog.OK){
       System.out.println("FROM: " + inputDialog.getFrom()+" TO:"+inputDialog.getTo());
       }
      }
    });
    

    As I throw the runtime exception, then I tried to do this:

    inputDialog=new InputReadMessageNumberDialog(selectedGroup.getName(),msg,numPost,choices,values);
    UiApplication.getUiApplication().invokeLater(new Runnable()
    {
      public void run()
      {
       inputDialog.show();
    
      }
    });while(true){  synchronized(this){    if(inputDialog.isClosed) break;    else wait(500);  }}if(inputDialog.doModal()==Dialog.OK){
    System.out.println("FROM: " + inputDialog.getFrom()+" TO:"+inputDialog.getTo());
    }
    

    She also throws an exception too. Now I don't know how to solve this problem.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    While I have deep religious convictions against the complicity of an author of the modal dialog box,

    I can say that this code seems to work and these dialog box classes are easy to use. If you

    Look at the API these altneratives will be pretty obvious.

    but there are two usages mixed with a be commented (both

    Work as much as I KNOW).

    String [] ch = new String() {"ACCEPT", "REJECT"};
    int [] vx is new int [] {Dialog.YES, Dialog.NO};.
    D = new dialog box dialog (m_tc, ch, vx, vx [0], new Bitmap (1,1));
           
    D = new dialog box dialog box (Dialog.D_YES_NO, m_tc, Dialog.NO, Bitmap (1,1), 0) new;
    F = d.getFont (police);
    d.setFont (f.derive (Font.PLAIN, f.getHeight () - 1));
    int x = d.doModal ();

    This will block your thread until there is something to "xx."

    However, I must reiterate that you evaluate the options before deciding that you need

    to lock all the other options. This is especially true in this environment where things

    might take some time and resources are limited.

    If you want to hang your entire application, no doubt you

    can define a volatile indicator around the doModal call and have other threads check it.

  • File dialog box cut the default name

    Hi all

    I recently migrated from LV2011 to LV2012 and I have a problem with the dialog file Express vi. It seems, that in LV2012 the Windows dialog box that appears after invoking the file dialog box, adjust the default name to 14 characters (or rather the chain moves to the left so the first x characters are hidden). Please see screenshot attached screen and VI. It's OK in LV2011 (have tested the same code yesterday on another PC with LV2011). Is there a solution or the solution? This is a minor bug, but given that my application is distributed to a customer who pays it mind rather

    Thank you for your reply, Andrew!

    Your VI not exactly help me with my code, but it helped me to find the path . Unfortunately, when I used your VI, the behavior was exactly the same as with the file dialog box. But I noticed that it works only when I select 'create' to the function input terminal (with "create or replace" or something else I've known the cutting chain).

    Then I tried to override the setting of file express VI dialog box of 'New or existing' on 'New' with this setting, the file dialog box works very well (and there seems to be no difference between 'New or existing' and 'New').

    This problem is solved, thank you once more!

  • How do I save a file dialog boxes

    How can you connect dialog boxes in a file

    for example a box pops up saying you want to save and it could save the text of this message in a file named boxes.txt

    Hello

    I don't see anything that would capture the text in a standard dialog box and say that opens if you close the notebook that you have not saved the file.

    However, you can make a screenshot and have an image of him. That could meet your needs?

    OneNote 2007 and Windows 7 have the "Snipping tool" built in (Windows key + S).  I don't know there are a few applications of third party there to do the same thing.

  • Bookmarking in browser crashes the browser to empty bookmark dialog box!

    Someone at - it see this one!

    1. I deleted the history, cache and all my favorite.
    2. If I call any page and try to bookmark, I get hooked to an empty bookmark - no page info dialog, cannot select icon!
    3. Cannot cancel or save or anything - I leave the browser!

    I can't bookmark! However, by saving the page to the Launcher works fine (using the same dialog box or one like bookmarks)!

    Well I fixed it, BUT it took a total reload of WebOS with webosdoctor to do!

    See:

    http://www.WebOS-internals.org/wiki/How_To_Recover

    That put me back to WebOS version 1.2.0 (was 1.2.1) but Bookmarks work again. Upgrading to 1.2.1 even now.

    Only thing I can think of cause is to have some patches installed and do the 1.2.1 upgrade.

    If all the patches be removed PRIOR to installation of the updates, I wonder?

    My success to the extent of the 'reset' buggy printer setup is to uninstall the product completely.  GE uninstall them or find it on the installation disc.  Isn't there?  Use MS uninstall or Uninstall of Ccleaner.  CCleaner is a free utility with several important features.  Make changes to some configuration of the printer already loaded is usually an invitation to disaster.

    When you go through the installation, requires special attention as to where you are directed to the printer turns on and time to connect it to the computer.  Installation details are there to be followed religiously.

    The position of the OP, have been reported since a lot of this problem on the some notebooks Dell and HP. There are a few reports that a replacement of the motherboard fixed the problem and the other that the relocation of a certain connector (no mention of exaclly one that) solves the problem. Direct contact with the manufacturer of the laptop computer, Dell or HP wether, might be useful. Try a follow-up if you have already made contact.
