Why do I have an empty window when viewing "Top 200 Rows"? - ssms

I have added some data into my database via POST-Request and it seem to have worked. However, when opening my table in the ssms I only see a white window.
What can I try to fix this?
This is my version info window

How to hide the separate error log window in DBeaver?

A few weeks ago I detached the error log within the editor as a separate window; I was just seeing what was going to happen.
Now I can't put it back and I get two separate error log windows. One that is the original detached window and another that's still within the editor. I can't find any option to reattach it to the single Dbeaver window/editor in attempt to revert it to what it was before.
The yellow bar in the picture is the window I'm referring to. It's just a little annoying for a new window to be produced every time I get an error. I've tried to look for toggles in the preferences menu but haven't seen anything that stands out to be the problem. Nor can I just drag and drop back it into the editor.
Looks like after an update you can't merge it to any of the bottom windows , but can keep it as a tabbed window like this.

How do I get IntelliJ to keep console, db console, etc all visible?

Whenever I run something, the bottom window always fully replaces the other windows. For example, if I first open the Database Tool Window and execute a select statement, it shows the rows in the bottom output. If I then run my java program, it closes that and replaces it with the app's output console. I want them side by side.
How do I tell it what to keep open at the bottom? (I tried pinning a tab but it still goes away)
do you want this?

try click split mode in your first window (ex Database Tool Window)

SSRS Report Does Not Show Up in Profiler Trace

I have written an SSRS Report and everything works fine within the Visual Studio Solution. When I try to view the report within the browser, all of the parameter fields and columns display, but no data is pulled. There are no errors when running the report and when I run a SQl Server Profiler trace, nothing is there. Any ideas?
In browser Click on report's arrow to see drop down menu, then click Manage, then go to Parameters tab and set them up.

SSMS SQL SERVER Management Studio 2012 startup freeze

I have a strange situation. IT installed SSMS on my laptop and it runs well the first time, connected to my SQL servers remotely etc. But then it's frozen. I forced quit and then started SSMS again. Now it's totally frozen, no popup window at all to enter the server-connection text string. Then I did a force quit and got a pop up window (see it here ).
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio has detected that an operation is blocking user input. This can be caused by an active modal dialog or a task that needs to block user interaction. Would you like to shut down anyway?
Has anyone seen this before? My IT department has no clue.
Often this is due to the new connection dialog being off screen (usually due to changing monitor setup e.g. 1 to 2 monitors or resolution change etc).
If so the really easy fix (if your connection dialog just needed approval without changing fields) is :
Focus on SSMS and Hit Enter/Return
..or the easy fix (if above does not work - as your last connection is not ready to go) is:
Alt Tab to SSMS
Alt + Space - context menu
M - select Move (in offscreen context menu)
Arrow Key(s) - to move it back onto screen
As per answers here from #Eirik Toft and here from #Lee Chetwynd
Fixed an issue which presented the same on my machine today by renaming a entry in my registry:
After some digging there seems to be multiple issues that can produce the same error (Application, settings, registry). This blog entry covers it pretty well:
http://www.armedia.com/blog/2012/08/sql-server-management-studio-freeze/
In my case deleteing the SQL server management studio folder under AppData ( c:\users\%userName%Appdata\raoming\microsoft\ ) didn't work.
However I was successfully after deleting / renaming the regisitry entry:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server]
(update)
Worked out the underlying issue on my laptop - was using additional 2 screens with much higher resolutions which caused windows / SSMS to open up the connect to new data source dialog off all of them. If your using multiple screens try returning to just use the native laptop screen to see if you can find the dialog that SSMS is waiting on your input for.
I just had this same situation, with two additional screens connected to my laptop. SQL Server Management Studio was opened on the third screen, with the modal dialog nowhere to be seen.
Two options:
Press tab three times and enter. This cancels the dialog. Now you can move the window to another screen.
Set Windows to only use one or two screens. SSMS opens on the first and should still open there when you move back to using three screens.
When SSMS is on your primary or secondary screen, the modal dialog opens on the first and should be usable.
It was because multi screen display. Turning off multiscreen to single one resolved it. Reenabled multi screen display after ssms started working
In my case, "Run as Administrator" option worked like charm. I was accessing my server screen with the windows RDP. And when I open SQL Server Management Studio and Visual Studio 2010 user hangs at the moment and wont operate unless sign off r disconnected by administrator.
But when I set compatibility mode of both the application to the "run as Administrator", it starts working fine.
the problem also occurs if you have a touch screen. I fixed this by disabling the local thouch screen when I switch to RDP.

Microsoft SQL Server not letting me open .bak

I am taking a class and our instructor gave us a file to download called cs.bak and its supposed to be formatted for the version of SQL we are using. So I downloaded the one for Microsoft SQL Server.
Well I tried to do the restore but when I get to the part that I choose device and locate the file cs.bak it loads and now I am suppose to be able to choose destination. Well after I choose destination I do not have the OK button to go through with the restore.
On these instructions http://www.katieandemil.com/sql-server-2012-restore-database-backup-file
If you count the window screens. I can only get as far as the 6th screen.
I am suppose to do this, "Some questions will ask you to write out query results from a database. In order to answer these questions you will need to have the example database available to you."
Well I can't open it to do this. Any help would appreciated. Thank you.
Check this:
This checkbox might be unchecked - and then the [OK] button remains disabled...
This seems to be a Windows Layout issue. To resolve this, reset the SSMS Window Layout by selecting from the main menu Window -> Reset Windows Layout.
