I use XCode 4.6 on OSX 10.8.2 and the "Show in Finder" Function from the right click context menu that used to work doesn't work anymore on my box. It just does nothing. I tried an XCode restart, restarting the machine, without success.
Can anyone imagine a way how this could be fixed without a fresh XCode install?
Note: Does work for my other Applications, iTunes for instance.
I am not sure what the actual issue is but whilst having a look around on the superuser.exchange website I came across this https://superuser.com/questions/479476/show-in-finder-wont-open-a-new-finder-window which seems to be what your issue could be.
Glad it has helped.

I have copied the project from my old amchine to windows 10 machine. Application works without any problem on simulator. If I right click to see the properties, I don't see IOS, Android and build hints. Please advise if there is something I'm missing here.
This was removed ages ago in Codename One 5.0 but was deprecated before that. See https://www.codenameone.com/blog/removing-old-preferences.html
You should use Codename One Settings in the right click menu.
Is there any way to set a version number for Mac OS Desktop apps in CN1? It always shows 1.0 no matter what I write in build.xml.
I can't find any build hint that could help either.
Thanks
I see a problem here, we'll fix it for the coming update so the version from the Codename One Settings app will be respected.
I have written an application in WPF/VB.net and have been testing it on a few different computers.
I have never experienced this issue on my development machine but one of my test machines has a strange issue where combo box lists and context menus are invisible.
The objects are there and you can select items from them but they are not being drawn.
I am scratching my head with this and have been searching for evidence of similar issues online but not really found anything.
I would like to completely rule out that this is a programming issue before going down the route of pointing the blame at any particular hardware my company is using.
I am using one click deployment and have transparency enabled on my windows.
This is an intermittent problem and restarting the PC will fix the issue. Restarting the application does not make the issue go away.
Thanks
Check that the machine you have problems with has the correct .net framework loaded. If you are using any other products such as Silverlight then check versions.
This issue was fixed by forcing software rendering on windows XP within the App.
This was done by adding the following line to application start up.
RenderOptions.ProcessRenderMode = System.Windows.Interop.RenderMode.SoftwareOnly
I got a commercial app, which works for a lot of customers.
One guy however has this problem:
After he installs OOB app to his computer and then hits its icon to launch it nothing happens.
I checked myself, icon is pointing at sllauncher just like everyones else.
SL was reinstalled yesterday, its the most recent version (5.xxx).
He says everything had been working fine, but he had fought a virus recently, and after that it stopped to work. Its not 100% that this virus and anti virus check are the reason, but thats the only system change he can name, which happened recently.
What could be the problem you think?
This sllauncher is pretty annoying to debug I guess as it doesnt give any clues, simply nothing happens.
App doesn't require elevated trust.
update: I did check event viewer and there is nothing interesting
Try to disable to anti-virus and run it - if it runs, Add an exception in the anti virus.
Also, go to the file properties and check that you don't need to unblock the file.
Two things worth trying:
First, right-click on your application icon and choose "Run as Administrator" to invoke it.
Second, if that doesn't work, consider uninstalling your application, and re-installing it.
This is achieved in Windows 7 by doing Start/Control Panel/Programs and Features. Then in the list find the name of your Silverlight application. Right-click on it, and choose "Uninstall".
Then re-install it in the same way your other customers do their installs.
I'm on Mac running parallels with windows XP and IE8 installed. The options I find either don't work with my version of Firefox or dont install correctly on the windows side. Do you know of any emulators for internet explorer?
What I'm looking for is to emulate websites in ie7 and ie6 to check. I know of IE=EmulateIE7 but will that force all users in IE8 to view in IE7? I'd rather fix my code than force someone to view in a different mode...
SuperPreview in Expression Blend can do that. See this answer.
Alternatively, you can create another Windows XP image with just IE6 and run it using Parallels.
IETester is the way to go. IE 5.5, 6, 7, 8 in one package.
Try using one of Microsoft's VirtualPC images for IE7. They give them away for free but they expire every couple of months.

You can download VirtualPC in Windows. It will probably run really slow in Parallels but you could also use Boot Camp and then run VirtualPC.
http://spoon.net/browsers/ is very handy too.
VPC is really the way to go, get the images from microsoft.
If you're already running Parallels, I'd suggest just using another VM for XP + IE7. It's the cleanest solution and provides the most reliable IE7 'emulation'.
