Using Windows 7 Enterprise Edition (64 bit) and Office 2010. When dragging a message from mail to the Calendar (in the lower left under the folder list) to create a new meeting/appointment, the calendar dialog will "pop under". How do I get the calendar dialog box to grab focus?
View 3 Replies View Relatedoccasionally, the dialog box (for "saving" or else) does not show on top. Which means I'm in the process of doing something, in this particular instance, saving a file from the internet to my computer (using IE8), and the dialog box is completely lost amidst all the programmes I have running (like Adobe Acrobat, Word, and IE). This means I'm actually stuck and I have to close every single window one after another to find the elusive dialog box and complete the procedure (I tried going directly to "desktop", but it wasn't there).It never happened with XP, is there a setting I should tune or is this just a(nother) bug?
View 5 Replies View RelatedIn the Link, is a picture of the dialog box that shows greyed out. I have been helping a friend with her computer. The system is a windows 7, 64 bit, home version, everything stock. I have cleaned out the system free from viruses and other malicious codes that could have been lurking around there. Installed avast and mbam with spybot on reserve. Everything works, until this happens. The only way that we can make the dialog box fix is to change the display settings and then apply the settings. Later on after answering the question or downloading a file, change the settings back.
View 1 Replies View RelatedNone of my dialog boxes are not showing up. Meaning when I go to "save as.." nothing comes up after I click on that. The little right click menu appears but when I select what I want, nothing else comes up. It's not behind any other windows or open programs or on the edge of the screen anywhere. I believe I did a defrag and I did a sweep with AVG anti-virus but nothing came up
View 13 Replies View RelatedFor the past couple of months, I've noticed that dialog boxes (For Save as, Open, Error messages, ect) are not appearing. The window will go unfocused for a second but the dialog box never appears. This has only been happening with certain programs such as Microsoft Office, Steam, and Musenotes (Although there are many others too) while other programs such as notepad are working completely fine.All of the solutions I've found either have to do with AutoCad (Which I don't have) or the dialog box simply appearing off screen (None of the solutions work)

Usually, I have sound on, so I can here the Windows notice, but not always. Also, I have dual screens that I keep pretty busy!
Is there a way I can tell Windows 7 that I want these dialog boxes to pop up in the front like they did way back in the WinXP day?
A right click no longer brings up a dialog box, is there some way to enable this feature?

I'm running Windows 7 RTM x64 on a Macbook Pro.

Any ideas?
Whenever (about 50% of the time) I use a program that'll eventually pop up a SAVE/OPEN dialog box (file explorer?). This could be ADOBE, or IE8 when I want to save a picture, or anything that'll prompt me to open a file or save a file, whenever the file explorer comes up it'll start to lag, then hang and then not respond and I have to close and restart.
Is it a windows explorer or file explorer problem? It happens on several of the computers/laptops I have the RC installed on.
Windows 7 32bit. The Dialog Box of the Printer Properties where several buttons are, is cropped both at the bottom and at the right sides. If I change the DPI to 200% then all the text is shown. This is the only dialog box where this anomaly is shown. It seems that the zooming [/I]of the whole menu is incorrect, so on two sides the text is not displayed. The printer is Epson Stylus DX 3800. Epson support could not help: it appears that is a Windows 7 problem. I tried several times to unistall and reinstall the oem driver, unsuccesfully.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI still use Office 2002 most of the time. It seems to work fine with newer versions of Windows, but there's one little glitch that bugs me - opening or closing the "Find and Replace" dialog box is very slow. On Windows XP, it would pop up more or less instantaneously. Since I upgraded to Vista, it crawls up the screen over the course of several seconds, and back down again when I close it. This behaviour has remained the same under Windows 7, even on an otherwise much faster and more powerful machine than I ever ran XP on.
Anyone know a fix, or at least an explanation, for this issue?
I want a shortcut or batch file or script that opens the properties for C Drive for use on multiple computers.. Alternatively, and preferably i would like one of the above that unticks the "allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties" and ignores all errors.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am an expat American living in France. I bought my laptop in the US, I have the Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OS and it is in English. I have my location set to United States through the control panel and all of my system is set to display in English.My problem is that when I visit english websites that open dialog boxes, the boxes opened are often in French. My current example is I'm trying to update my video card driver through Intel's website. They have a diagnostic tool that scanned my computer and suggested I download drivers and update 2 components. The website was in English and I assume there are files that are all in English.However, when I run the .exe files, the dialog box is all in French -- and I am not fluent. I am assuming that something is checking my IP address or something. Is there a way to only have these programs display English? I'm not sure if it matters or not, but I am using Google Chrome.

Just upgraded to 7 x64. Previously when checking mail in Outlook Express, the send/receive dialog box would automatically pop up to show you the progress of your email downloads. Live Mail doesn't do this unless you specifically hit the Send/Receive button.
I know there's the small message in the status bar at right, but I've always liked the way OE just popped the box for you. Is there a way to make this happen in Live Mail?
I've just switched from IE9 to Google chrome, as some websites didn't load right in IE 9 even with compatibly mode enabled. The only thing I don't like about chrome is that if you download a file it automatically saves it, where in IE9 you had the option to save it, or just open it. Is it possible to achieve that in chrome, as some stuff i download i don't need saved, and i hate having to go through my download and delete stuff.

I have a programm that is copying a file (and its needed .dll files) to a selected folder. After the copy process the .dll files need to be registered with regsvr32. This is also part of the programm.On WIN XP there have been shown a dialog box that the regstration have been completed successfully for each call of regsvr32.On Windows 7 the regsvr32 call will be started (regsvr32.exe can be seen in TaskManager) and the regsitration has been completed successfully, but the dialog box is not appearing.In TasManager the regsvr32 don't dissapear and regsvr32 application is still 'blocking' the .dll files, because I can not rename the files or the folder where the files are inside.Anyway the file that is needing the .dll files to be able to run is working fine, therefore the registration have been completed successfully.Therefore I guess that this can be some sort of display bug?!it is possible that the registration with regsvr32 can be done in the correct way?Using the silent paramter /s does not help in this case, because I need to get an information if the registration will not be completed successfully. Silent is disabling all messages including the one that I need.

I'm not talking about PSD files here, just jpgs and other "regular" image formats. I have no problems with seeing thumbnails by default in any other software's File Open dialogs other than Photoshop (CS4 in my case). No matter what I have tried in Folder Options (yadda yadda) PS CS4 refuses to display thumbnails unless I manually choose "Icons" from the view menu once I am in the dialog. (Ideally I'd like it to automatically display Extra Large Icons.) This is driving me nuts as I work on jpg photos all day and every day. Sure I can use Bridge, but it is SO slow, or something else, but someone out there must have a fix? I can't see anything obvious in the Adobe areas of the registry and don't know enough about it to hack it myself.I realize you can use Libraries to get thumbnails, but that's about as many clicks (or more) than File>Open>View>Ex Large thumbnails every single time!!
View 8 Replies View RelatedI recently bought WD MyBookLive and I'm busy figuring out how to set it up. I'm confident that my problem has to do with the fact that I've mapped drives to the external backup drive.My problem is this: Whenever I use the Save-as dialog and I click the "Desktop" button so that I can save to the Desktop, the dialog freezes up for a while. Sometims, the dialog itself is not frozen (i.e. I can press Cancel to dismiss it) but the display where the icons from the Desktop are supposed to appear, remains blank. Sometimes, however, both the dialog and the program from which I called it freezes. If I wait long enough, the icons appear, and I can proceed with saving the file or navigating to subfolders on my desktop.This has only started today, after I started mapping drives. I don't think it has to do with WD's software because I had installed those yesterday and didn't notice this problem.
Thing is, even if I disconnect all my mapped drives, the Save-as dialog problem remains. Rebooting has no effect. It is as if Windows is trying to access some resource before it will show me the desktop icons, and it takes a long while for Windows to realise that it can't access that resource (or perhaps it just takes long to access it).This does not happen to all Save-as dialogs -- only to the types of Save-as dialogs that are non-resizeable and that show the five shortcut icons on the left (Recent Places, Desktop, Libraries, Computer, Network). I can actually save a file to the Desktop immediately, but I can't see the files on the desktop (in the dialog) nor can I browse to other folders from there, until I wait a long while. the same applies to Open-file dialogs -- the ones that look similar to the misbehaving Save-as dialogs have the same problem. If I want to open a file using such a dialog I have to wait a minute or two before the list of files display, or I can manually type in the file name and press "Open", and it will open the file.i'm using Windows 7 HP 64-bit.
My computer lets me browse the network just fine and even sees everything there is to see. However, when I want to say, mount a DVD from a networked computer for example, the Network icon is nowhere to be found on the Open File or Folder dialog window.
Going back to the root level (from the path bar in the very same window) lets me see all the usual stuff: drives, homegroup and such but once again, no network.
I'm sorry if this has been asked before but I couldn't find any solution to this and it seems like a very silly thing to remove from the OS.
I hope it's just me being blind and I really appreciate any information you guys can share on this subject.
(Using Windows 7 RC1 64-bit, in the same network with two Vista 64 computers.)
Every time Windows triggers an dialog alert (like windows asterisk, windows critical error ect.) I don't hear the event sound related to it. I looked over and over the settings in the config screen: looking for currupted settings in my windows sound scheme or currupted media files in the windows media dir. But it seems that everything is simply okay, all the settings are correct and the files work well (I can hear the sound when I click test in the sound config screen). It just looks like it that the sounds do not get triggered by the event. It just came out of the blue, everything worked fine and just the other day I did not hear dialog event sounds anymore. Things I have tried:
- Sfc /scannow to fix possible currupted media files (although I did not think this was the problem, since all the files work just fine). No effect.
- Reset the default sound scheme of windows of a few times, even tried some other sound shemes that come preinstalled with Windows 7. No effect.
- Tried to reinstall my sound drivers (no idea why I tried that because my sound works just fine). No effect.
- Made a new user account to see if the problem was account related. No effect.
In short: What is the possible cause/solution for windows events sounds not triggered/suppressed by the dialog event itself (all settings/sound files correct)?
