My menu start and other menus drop-down list are not open.

That last Thursday night, without reason my Start menu and other menus just started to panic.  When I click on them they only stay open for about 1 second Max and now any window that is open to some sort of "flashes" constantly.  I can't understand what this is where what to do.  There was no change in system or a download.  Help, please! Thank you!

Looks like a system file may be corrupt. Microsoft has a tool called the System File Checker that search for missing or damaged system files and tries to fix them.  More information about this tool can be found at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833. I recommend this to give a try.

To run this tool Startclick, click all programs -> Accessories. Right - click command prompt, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or click allow.  Type sfc/scannow in the black box and press enter.

  • categories of content drop-down list will not open

    I'm new to RoboHelp so bear with me: first of all, I don't see how to search for FAQ short Ctrl-F on the current page. Second, with a trial CD of RoboHelp HTML 10 installation in a generated WebHelp layout that the content of the menu categories drop down will not open to allow the user to select the second category / default.

    Hello again from Leslie

    Just watch the video. Thank you

    I wonder if this may be the associated browser. I noticed that you use Microsoft Internet Explorer. But I can't tell what version. Even though it seems pretty new. (Personally, I'm a Firefox user)

    You have installed Firefox? If so, have you tried the output in Firefox? Note that I'm not encourage you to spend, only I was wondering if you could try out of Firefox to see if you get different behavior.

    Also, I am aware that things * SHOULD * work by using the mouse, but another thing, you could try would be to focus the drop with the mouse, and then press the arrow key down and see if you can select the second category in this way.

    In regards to things not found in the search, this is the expected behavior. When you use content categories, you create as much of different outputs of WebHelp as you defined categories. When you are in the category of the East where you excluded the content of the West, it is quite reasonable that you can't find everything related to the West, when you perform a search. Once you manage to get the menu drop-down allows you to change the category of the West, the search will probably fail to East of information (assuming that you have a build expression and a label exclusion information from the East).

  • I downoladed and tried to install CS6 on my computer after that machine has been upgraded to Windows 10.  I get a message that says "serial number is not for the product." The drop-down list does not contain CS6 Design and Web Premium.  What should I do

The drop-down list does not contain CS6 Design and Web Premium.  What should I do to get loaded and enabled on my computer?

    That fall down, and the serial number you provide must identify the previous version that you upgraded because CS6 is an upgraded version in your case.

    You may have installed one or more variants of the malware "VSearch' ad-injection. Please back up all data, and then take the steps below to disable it.

    Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

    Malware is constantly evolving to work around defenses against it. This procedure works now, I know. It will not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a couple of days or more after it was published should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.

    Step 1

    VSearch malware tries to hide by varying names of the files it installs. It regenerates itself also if you try to remove it when it is run. To remove it, you must first start in safe mode temporarily disable the malware.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for other instructions.

    Step 2

    When running in safe mode, load the web page and then triple - click on the line below to select. Copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons

    In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" can open. If this is the case, press the combination of keys command-2 to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected.

    There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click this title two times to sort the content by date with the most recent at the top. Please don't skip this step. Files that belong to an instance of VSearch will have the same date of change for a few minutes, then they will be grouped together when you sort the folder this way, which makes them easy to identify.

    Step 3

    In the LaunchDaemons folder, there may be one or more files with the name of this form:

    com Apple.something.plist

    When something is a random string, without the letters, different in each case.

    Note that the name consists of four words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com Apple.builins.plist

    com Apple.cereng.plist

    com Apple.nysgar.plist

    There may be one or more items with a name of the form:

    com.something.plist

    Yet once something is a random string, without meaning - not necessarily the same as that which appears in one of the other file names.

    These names consist of three words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com.semifasciaUpd.plist

    com.ubuiling.plist

    Sometimes there are items (usually not more than one) with the name of this form:

    com.something .net - preferences.plist

    This name consists of four words (the third hyphen) separated by periods. Typical example:

    com.jangly .net - preferences.plist

    Drag all items in the basket. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

    Restart the computer and empty the trash.

    Examples of legitimate files located in the same folder:

    com.apple.FinalCutServer.fcsvr_ldsd.plist

    com Apple.Installer.osmessagetracing.plist

    com Apple.Qmaster.qmasterd.plist

    com Apple.aelwriter.plist

    com Apple.SERVERD.plist

    com Tether.plist

    The first three are clearly not VSearch files because the names do not match the above models. The last three are not easy to distinguish by the name alone, but the modification date will be earlier than the date at which VSearch has been installed, perhaps several years. None of these files will be present in most installations of Mac OS X.

    Do not delete the folder 'LaunchDaemons' or anything else inside, unless you know you have another type of unwanted software and more VSearch. The file is a normal part of Mac OS X. The "demon" refers to a program that starts automatically. This is not inherently bad, but the mechanism is sometimes exploited by hackers for malicious software.

    If you are not sure whether a file is part of the malware, order the contents of the folder by date modified I wrote in step 2, no name. Malicious files will be grouped together. There could be more than one such group, if you attacked more than once. A file dated far in the past is not part of the malware. A folder in date dated Middle an obviously malicious cluster is almost certainly too malicious.

    If the files come back after you remove the, they are replaced by others with similar names, then either you didn't start in safe mode or you do not have all the. Return to step 1 and try again.

    Step 4

    Reset the home page in each of your browsers, if it has been modified. In Safari, first load the desired home page, then select

    ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ General

    and click on

    Set on the current Page

    If you use Firefox or Chrome web browser, remove the extensions or add-ons that you don't know that you need. When in doubt, remove all of them.

    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you reinstall it never. A few small files will be left behind, but they have no effect, and trying to find all them is more trouble that it's worth.

    Step 5

    The malware lets the web proxy discovery in the network settings. If you know that the setting was already enabled for a reason, skip this step. Otherwise, you should undo the change.

    Open the network pane in system preferences. If there is a padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window, click it and authenticate to unlock the settings. Click the Advanced button, and then select Proxies in the sheet that drops down. Uncheck that Auto Discovery Proxy if it is checked. Click OK, and then apply.

    Step 6

    This step is optional. Open the users and groups in the system preferences and click on the lock icon to unlock the settings. In the list of users, there may be some with random names that have been added by the malware. You can remove these users. If you are not sure whether a user is legitimate, do not delete it.

  • Text formatting on SegmentedControl and inside the drop-down list

    Hello

    I'm trying to change the color of the text on the buttons of a SegmentedControl and part of a drop-down list.

    I don't want to change the skin, but only the text. With the drop down menu, I managed to change the upper part (just what you see when the drop down menu is closed) using

    myDropDown.button.setTextFormatForState(myUpColor, SkinStates.UP);
    

    etc, but with the elements inside the list and buttons SegmentedControl I can't find a property that lets me set the text format...

    Any ideas?

    It doesn't seem to be an easy way to do.

    The only way would be to extend the SegmentedControl and then override the following method with the following code. It should do the trick. We will work on making that it puts far more easily in the future.

    override protected function onButtonAdded(child : RadioButton) : void
            {
                var dpLength : int = __dataProvider.length;
                child.width = Math.round( width / dpLength );
                // change this to be percentages
                child.groupname = __groupName;
                //Set your formats to whatever you like here.
                            child.setTextFormatForState( ThemeGlobals.getTextFormat( ThemeGlobals.SEGMENTED_CONTROL_FORMAT_DISABLED ), SkinStates.DISABLED );
                child.setTextFormatForState( ThemeGlobals.getTextFormat( ThemeGlobals.SEGMENTED_CONTROL_FORMAT_OUT ), SkinStates.UP );

  • Why don't point in the drop-down list address not remove when selected and click on remove

    on version 14.1 - to remove an item in the drop-down address, said the point the address line the right click and select delete - this clears the address line but point remains in the drop-down list and does disappear not - why point unclear when you return to fall down to check this

    the system is XP and ff 14.1

    I think that you need for the arrow down to the element, so it is highlighted, and then press DELETE.

    (I meant the keyboard delete key, you can't right click on the drop-down list).

  • Set and get a drop down list

    Hello

    This is a general question to YOU, but since I work with FM, I'll try here first.

    I am able to create drop-down lists WITH and set/get the current selection, but I'm not clear on why he works in his own way. It seems that when I put the selection, he uses an index of current articles, but when I get to the selection, it gets the actual value.

    Consider this example, with comments:

    create a drop-down list for the dialog dlg

    dlg.dropDown = dlg.add ("dropdownlist', undefined, [10, 20, 30]);

    This sets the current value in the box of 30

    dlg.dropDown.selection = 2;

    However, this report 30, no 2

    Alert (DLG.dropDown.Selection);

    Anyone know about this? It is true that it's a clue when set and a value when obtained? I couldn't find anything in the documentation on the subject.

    Thank you

    Russ

    Nevermind, I got it. The property of 'selection' is actually a primitive ListItem, not only one type of data object I thought. For example, the default property of the ListItem is chosen differently in different scenarios. To clarify:

    dlg.dropDown.selection.index

    .. is the index

    dlg.dropDown.selection.text

    .. the text value is

    So I should use the complete property to be sure.

  • Mail signature drop-down list is not displayed

    Hi all, I have a problem using Mail v9.3 with OS X El Capitan v10.11.5 because it is not display the drop-down list of signatures in the new email or reply/forward an email windows.

    I checked all the Mail preferences, and I see all the associated parameters.

    Can someone help me?. Thanks in advance.

    Please take these steps to remove the mail folders 'sandbox '.

    Step 1

    Back up all data.

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

    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail

    Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

    Services ▹ Reveal

    the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open up with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If this is the case, move the selected folder - not only its content - on the desktop. Open the window Finder for now.

    Log off or restart the computer. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to re-create some of your e-mail settings. Any writing paper custom that you created may be lost. Ask for instructions if you want to keep these data. You can then delete the folder that you moved and close Finder.

    CAUTION: If you change the content of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may hang or starts any. Remove the tray to sand everything will be rebuilt automatically.

    Step 2

    If step 1 does not resolve the problem, repeat with this line:

    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent

    * If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

  • drop-down lists are incomplete on different websites

    I just came across Web sites where the list drop-down lists (for example for what state do you live) are incomplete. It works fine in all other browsers I've tried.
    Here is a simple page to test the problem on: https://www.bankofamerica.com/
    The problem occurs on the homepage of the Bank of America, at the top left where you select a location, it lists only about half of the States, and there is no scroll bar.
    The problem occurs in safe mode.
    Awkward and counter-intuitive solution is to use arrow down to access other State names.

    Basically, I use Safari for sites more.

    The drop-down list of 'day' menu Facebook under date of birth must be a scroll bar (I will attach a screenshot of Windows)

    Maybe this article will help you?

  • Custom image drop-down list appears not appropriate on Blackberry 9000 Simulator

    Hello

    I created the custom in my code drop-down list. my code works fine for other simulators.

    But when I tried to run on Blackberry 9000 Simulator from the drop-down list not shown correct image he cuts half the size of the image.

    I check my code, I did not manually height for the drop-down list.

    Please tell me why image appears not appropriate Simulator 9000.

    Welcome to the forums.

    I'm guessing that you don't know how to use the insert of Code button.  If you look at the top of the editing window, you will see a number of options for formatting such as police.  Look to the right and there are two buttons, one is used to insert the code.  Hover over the buttons and you will see a description.  Press the button insert the Code, add your code and you will see something like the following:

        public void drawListRow(ListField list, Graphics g, int index, int y, int w) {
            Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.getBitmapResource(arrowBitmapName);
            int fontWidth = getFont().getAdvance(text);
            int width = Display.getWidth() ;
            int height = list.getRowHeight();
            g.setColor(Color.BLACK); g.setFont(fontPlain);
            g.drawBitmap(0,0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight(), bitmap, 0, 0);
            g.drawText(text, 3, y-drptextHeight, 0, w);
        }
    

    I think it's the routine that you use to draw each line of your drop...

    I recommend that move you as much code as you can out of this method.  It's called very often.  Creating a Butmap here, which is an expensive operation, is not a good idea, especially when the Bitmap image in reality does not change.  So create once and use it in the drawListRow.

    Also use the parameters that are passed.  The width you have to paint is given in the parameter, and perhaps not the same as the actual display width.

    In any case, this code draws the Bitmap to (0, 0).  I susspect should be at (0, y).  This could explain why it is not drawn correctly.  You seem to have a similar problem with the text.

    The drawListRow is assigned a value of 'y' and should paint from y to y + listField.getRowHeight ().  But in fact drawListRow has access to the area of the entire painting, so can do too much else.  You must code your method correctly to get good results in your list.

    Hope this helps, if not, please post your code so we can actually read.  In fact, as I say to others, do not post your real code.  Create a simple example that we can run illustrating your problem.  Then everything can run your example and see the problem.  Never stick all your code.  People are put off by the number of lines of code.
