Mac programs show recent "bad" items

First of all, thank you for reading my question!

I have difficulties to access the "recent items" when right click on native Mac programs (for example, a clip, Pages, Quicktime, etc.). The programs demonstrate quite recent items, but these "recent items" days. The documents that I opened/saved/closed earlier in the day are not on the list.

I already checked system Pref--> Gen--> recent items and confirmed that it is set to above zero.

Any ideas why ALL programs would act this way? I even checked the date and time to confirm that the computer is not thinking at the wrong time.

Thanks again!

Apology. The OSX version is 10.11.3.

  • Program shows just like a small strip at the top left after the resumption of the hibernation

    My program shows itself sometimes only as a small strip once Windows comes out of the hibernation.

    Everything seems to be the program. Only sometimes.

    I can maximize and it will go the the corner, but always shows only the small band.

    I can move it around, but it will show more than the small band.

    I can close it from the Task Manager, but lose all the data that I didn't save.

    It will open normally again.

    Running Windows 7, 1920/1080 with the latest AMD video drivers.

    Hi Mark,

    Thank you for the update.

    If possible, I'd suggest to uninstall the program and re - install to see if that solves the problem. If this is not the case, because this application is developed using .net, I would recommend to post your query in MSDN.

  • After the upgrade of the House 7 to 7 Pro the Toshiba support site shows the bad graphics card for L775D.

    Original title: Graphics Adapter Gone.

    After the upgrade of the House 7 to 7 Pro the Toshiba support site shows the bad graphics card for my L775D. I have an AMD Radeon 6250 built in card and when you search AMD support site, it does not show my video card. I did a search automatically and empty came also.

    I also had a problem with a file. TVALZ_O Sys when I search because she is on board I came with 3 files which no I can do something with. The system will accept all available Windows updates and continues do not install 3 updates of security. This a Quad Core A6 Vision 1.4 GB processor any help would be greatly appreciated as I formatted and reinstalled until I'm blue in the face.

    Hello Stephen,

    The file that TVALZ_O seems to be linked to Toshiba ACPI and it seems THAT BIOS should be updated.

    Since you are facing many problems after the upgrade to Windows 7 Professional, it seems you may need to check the latest updates of the Toshiba BIOS.

    Important: Change the BIOS (Basic input output system) / Semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    You have to get in contact with the support Toshiba BIOS update and to get help.

    Hope the helps of information. Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.

  • JumpLists disabled; 'store and display of recently opened items in the Start Menu and the taskbar' is greyed out

    My option 'store and display of recently opened items in the Start Menu and the taskbar' is grayed out. Are also grayed out any mention of "jumplists" system (i.e. the number of items to display in the jumplists). Have I inadvertently disabled this feature? If so, how can I return it?

    Hi, landonblaine:

    When the option store and display recently opened items in the start menu and the taskbar is disabled and grayed out, it is a symptom that two Windows fonts are applied to your system.

    Open the Publisher of the registry (Regedit.exe) and navigate to this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer. If there is a registry that NoRecentDocsMenu value set to 1, delete it. If there is a registry that NoRecentDocsHistory value set to 1, remove it as well.

    Repeat the same steps in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer registry key (it cannot exist).

    Restart your computer and see if the problem is resolved. Microsoft MVP Windows Desktop Experience

Currently, I enjoy photoshop.com because I can share albums photo and video slideshows of the elements with my family. I'm worried because I don't see any homepage or the toolbar on my new account of Revel. It's as if there is nothing there?   Am I missing something?

    Currently, Revel only supports jpg files. We add many improvements, so this might change in the future. Read what some of our FAQ can be useful for you to get more information, so I'll include some here for you. Only 11 of the elements version has connectivity with Revel, but you can download files from your computer as well.
