Unable to Open PDF in New IE Window
Local administrator could open the pdf in a new window without problem. User had admin rights but could only open a new window, the pdf would not load. On advice; set IE settings back to default and was able to make it work.
Word Opening Window in Wrong Position
Word has been opening the maximized window starting a quarter of the way down the page making it unable to be moved up into the correct position. I closed Word, deleted the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\W ord\Data, and reopened Word. Worked properly. I presume it rebuilt the key with the default setting after it was unable to find the old key.
MapQuest iPhone Turn by Turn GPS App
I really was… just the other day, lamenting the apparent demise of MapQuest.com. I can’t remember the last time I’d used it instead of Google Maps (I think the problem was typing that “q” the pinky on my left hand just has a hard time getting there). I can’t remember the last time I saw anyone else use it. It has to have been at least a couple of years. I imagined a dwindling and impoverished staff still clinging to the memories of what once was, breaks your heart.
But!! Good news the once king of the hill beaten by google is back and on the iphone, and it talks to you…
MapQuest has released the “MapQuest 4 Mobile” iPhone app. It sports Voice Guidance and Off-Route Assistance if you stray off course. It finds the closest Hotel, Resturant, Shopping Center, Gas, Coffee Shop, Post Office, Parking Garage, Grocery Store, School, and Traffic (yeah I doubt the last one works very well but nice and ambitious).
Here is the link to the blog over at mapquest and a link to the app
