Activity button on ribbon not working - dynamics-crm-2011

For some reason, the Activity button on the ribbon isn't dropping down the list of available activities when I click on it. This happens in both of the forms I have tried it on, Accounts and Service Cases. I get no script errors or any other errors.
Our environment has been updated up to rollup 11.
Is there anyway I can debug what's going on? I can't seem to get very far with the built-in IE developer tools.

You can debug by pressing F12 but it's not as fun as it may sound. Also, the behavior seems odd. I can't reproduce it. Would you mind posting a screenshot?

PowerApps - onChange not triggering after Publishing, triggering in editor App Preview (F5)

This is a bit of a weird one:
Attempting to publish a PowerApp to my site however some of the onChange events are not firing after being published. The Preview in the app is working fine, however the version published to the site does not.
I have tried restarting PowerApps, the browser, my computer, republishing after each with no luck. Anyone run into this issue before and have a solution?
Okay - After hours of messing with this I got it to work but the solution doesn't resolve the bug, just gets my desired result.
What I was doing:
Specifically what is happening I am using an onchange event from a dropdown to assist in naming the title of the same list item.
OnChange: UpdateContext({varNewName: "example text"})
However, the title box simply wouldn't update after being published. In the preview mode in the developer environment it was running fine.
I decided to duplicate the box for laughs, tested it, both updated in preview mode just fine.
Published it and the original box was now working, the second box however was now doing nothing. If anyone knows why this is happening I would love to know, it is driving me nuts.
TLDR: If you are having this issue duplicate the recieving end of your trigger and it might resolve. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Same issue with rating control.
After a long day, I changed default value of binding source from Blank() to Zero. And it works fine!

Acumatica 2018 R2 Mobile - Locks up when attempting to add a new screen

After Summit 2019, we were excited to start working on updates for 2018R2, and I practiced adding mobile screens for our custom modules in my sandbox.
We decided to fully refresh our DEV instance and reapply our customizations. No problem there, but when I try "Add New Screen" in the mobile section and then try to enter my screen number, the mouse goes to "waiting" and I can't add my new screen. Eventually, I get a "timed out" message. Same problem even when trying to add a standard Acumatica screen. Everything else in the project and Acumatica web interface seems to work fine.
Any ideas on where to look for what is preventing adding a new screen?
I'm on Build 18.209.0021.
It seems like an Ajax issue in the customization project editor. After callback to server the client page javascript is stuck waiting on the server response. You can try using Chrome browser which has less of those Ajax hangs and update Chrome if you're already using it.
There is also a known issue specifically affecting 2018 R2 Mobile that leads to generic error Sequence contains no matching element on mobile detail page. Based on your question this doesn't seem to be the issue you are having but you can give the workaround to this bug a try:
Open Generic Inquiry screen (SM208000)
Select FS-ServiceOrder inquiry, uncheck Expose to mobile and save
On Apply Updates screen (SM203510), click on Restart Application
This was identified by Acumatica support as a bug. Upgrade to a new release for the fix.

Azure maximize button missing.

Not a code question but its stopping me from writing any code. In Azure the maximize button on easy tables is missing in all browsers including Safari, Chrome and Firefox. Also emulating Internet Explorer and Edge in Safari gives the same result. Im on a Mac and don't have access to a windows machine. This button was right next to the close button, now its gone. Has anyone seen this issue or found a fix?
They removed it some time ago (not sure the reasoning behind this, annoying as hell). Nothing you can do about it. Well, you can créate a feedback ítem. thats about it.
I'm using a Windows\Centos laptop, so you can be sure your OS is not the issue.
update:
you can kinda work around it:
I found a fix just now. Grab the right side of the browser window and
drag to the left to make it small. The button appears! If you drag and
make the window larger the button disappears.

Auto Save or Prompt before navigating away from text editors in Kentico CMSDesk not working

Auto Save or Prompt before navigating away from text editors in Kentico CMSDesk not working. I already set the Settings -> Content Management -> Prompt to save changes on exit to checked, but didn't work. Can somebody help me.
-Thanks in advance
What I would suggest is to enable the developer tools in chrome or firebug in firefox and check, if there are any javascript errors in your pages. it's possible that some custom javascript interferes with this check. Check for any errors and try to resolve them. Or, as a test, try creating a completely blank page in the content tree, with only an editable region and disable any master page inheritance so there won't be any custom code used on your page and test, if it works there. If it does, then keep adding your scripts and test to see which component or script is causing the issue. Also make sure your settings are enabled on a site level in the settings application.
Which version and hotfix do you use? I suppose you are using v7 (or less - because of CMSDesk). Please note there were some bug fixes related to prompt in CMSDesk (eg. in 7.0.80).
Content editing - The ‘Prompt to save changes on exit’ setting didn’t work correctly
You can find more information about hotfixes and fixed bugs here.
edit: after additional info (screen from your console) I think you have registered your own jquery and you don`t have registered it in no conflict mode. Can you agree? Could you register your jquery in nonconflict mode and try the prompt behavior again?

How is the panel displayed when launching Chrome Hangout extension made to be always on top and pinned?

When launching the Chrome Extension Google-Hangouts, a panel initially appears that lists members and a link/button to create a new Hangout.
This panel is initially pinned to the bottom right of the browser window. When pinned like this, it remains always on top as a browser navigation session continues: users can go to different URLs, change tabs, etc. and that panel stays at the bottom right and stays on top of all other windows (or at least on top of the main browser window).
Once it's unpinned, you can drag it around the window, but it no longer stays always on top.
My question is, how was that achieved - what code, or what functions, do i need to call to create that window/panel so that it stays initially pinned and always on top? Is there some binding to some native code that's involved? Some other approach?
If anyone know and can show or explain, i would be hugely grateful as this feature is key to an extension i'm trying to build.
Thanks a lot!
This may not be an answer but to get a clue of what is happening I extracted the crx file to view its content there are a few OS specific files : ace.dll , libace.so and ace. After researching a bit i found this. This is a plugin. Hangouts extension is using ace plugin which is actually running on your desktop(i'm not sure about this). You can check this article
I found this related post: How to build an chrome extension like Google Hangouts
ACE is actually not what makes the window, Chrome has that capability built in, apparently. Even if you don't enable panels, extensions from Google can still make them, provided your OS is capable.
