New Appbuilder: Crash when hightlight text > right click in Chrome - krl

In the new app builder, when you are in Chrome, and you highlight some text and right click it to copy it, it kills Chrome and you have to relaunch your browser, so all of your progress is lost. I keep forgetting to just ctrl + c, and it literally restarts my browser like once every 10 mins. So, I keep losing work.

This is a bug in Ace Editor, the editor that AppBuilder uses. Bug info here:
https://github.com/ajaxorg/ace/issues/100
There is some indication that the newest release of Chrome does fix the problem. Can you test and confirm?
(Oh, and to agree with Mike Grace, this really is a better email to support then a question on SO.)

Chrome devtools tab reopens the wrong source files after a refresh

When I use chrome to debug my angular project, I open files in the chrome sources by clicking Ctrl+P/O and entering part of the name. Problem is: when I reload, seems chrome keeps all the wrong files open... so if I debugged into another file (didn't close it! just lost focus) and then reload (like, after sources changed and compiled) chrome will close that file, and might even not remember it in the open recents dropdown... It's like someone sorted in reverse for some reason...
Is there a way to fix the wrong sorting order through settings or configuration somehow?
Am I the only one finding this not very smart/useful? Considering debugging in browser is a pain in the arse as it is, and unfortunately is the only/go-to option for debugging browser apps...

Unable to uninstall github for mac

Github for mac is completely not working. It just brings up an xcode window with a 9 month old file in text editor.
So I tried to uninstall it using this gist:
https://gist.github.com/naomik/11245234
but it did not help: every time I go to a github link the same xcode useless window comes up.
When I click on Launch Application then the empty xcode window comes up.
If I click on Do Nothing then .. well nothing happens (it does not navigate to the github page !!)
Help needed badly on this.
Did you try to uninstall with CleanMyMac? I think it should clear all depending files so i think it can help.

Eclipse : how can I disable this popup?

I'm sorry if this question has been ask before or can be found on the net. I have no idea how do I call this popup. I have no idea of the keyword to google. I tried "popup", "dialog", "confirmation" and a lot else but didn't success.
Back to the question, I've just migrate to my development machine and did fresh install for Eclipse. After that, I copy all the setting in workspace/.metadata folder from my previous machine to the new one. Everything looks fine (theme, key bindings and else) except that I have this popup appearing whenever I press some shortcut. For example, Ctrl+Space to bring up the code assist, the following dialog appears.
This popup never appeared before in my previous machine. It is annoying since I have to hit enter once every time I press those shortcut. Do you have any idea how can I turn this off?
Best
Note
I don't think this popup is code assist specific issue, I brought code assist up as an example. I also got this popup when I press shortcut to
Open Resource
Run
Refactor/Rename
Add getter/setter
and 10s other shortcut too. Also, I don't have conflict shortcut. Not that I know.
This question may have been answered here already: Disable content assist in Eclipse
Refer to the following link for the documentation on Content Assist: http://help.eclipse.org/helios/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/reference/cdt_u_c_editor_con_assist.htm
The point is to disable the actions that trigger the Content Assist.

IE11 F12 Developer Tools on Windows 7 functionality missing/not working?

I was using IE10 on Windows 7 but it is such a buggy piece of you-know-what (hanging, crashing, etc.) that I gave up and installed IE11. It has not hung or crashed since installing. But I hate the F12 developer tools! Okay, not completely - there are some very cool new features. What I don't like is that they seem to have dropped several features that I really liked! Unless I'm just missing something... I've searched and searched on Google and Microsoft but all of the help I've found only describes the new features. Here is what I'm missing: Color picker, Ruler, and most of all, the Clear browser cache for this domain. They allege to have a Clear browser cache function, but it doesn't work! So when I make changes to my website, in particular changing graphics, the only way I can see the change is to delete all my temporary files from IE. Then I lose all of my cookies e.g. for automatically logging in to Stack Overflow! IE version 11.0.9600.16428 on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.
The color picker is still available, go to the DOM Explorer tab and there is an eye dropper on the tool bar at the top towards the left. That activates the color picker.
For the issue of serving cached files try toggling on "Always refresh from server" on the network tool (3rd option from the left). This should get you the latest changes from your server.

eclipse stop popup "Web launch already running"

I am developing in PHP with Xdebug and for some reason every now and then the debug session stops working, so i click again the debug button but it gives me this error all the time "Web launch already running", so i have to go to Debug Perspective and click "Terminate and Relaunch".
Is there a way to make eclipse automatically terminate and relaunch or launch two sessions or don't show this popup, for 2 years this popup has been bugging me xD
As noted in response to questions like this one and this one, the best current solution appears to be binding "Terminate and Relaunch" to a keyboard shortcut.
Not automatic, but at least a lot less clicking around.
I have taken care of pesky popups in Eclipse with AutoHotkey script which have worked very well. I could create an AutoHotkey script which sends specific keystrokes automatically every time there is a specific pop-up.
So the flow I had in mind was as follows :
You click on the debug button -> The Error popup appears and as soon as that happens the AutoHotKey script kicks in and automatically does what you have to do manually.
If you think that might be worth looking into then we can talk more in a Chat session somewhere. I would need some information about the Pop up using the AU3_Spy.exe bundled with the AutoHotkey Installer.
Searching on Google, I found that many people have the same problem.
Bellow are some links that help you, I think:

A good article: http://www.latenightpc.com/blog/archives/2008/05/24/a-complete-lamp-development-environment-xampp-eclipse-pdt-and-xdebug
See this, too: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/57493/
Take a look here, too: Getting error in XDEBUG
So, read and try, read and try.
