I am using the newest (updated) version of IntelliJ IDEA. I am coding in Javascript (React) and i've been using the One Dark theme for ages now.
But since the last update, everything is glitched.
So first problem:
The IDE is now allways starting in the white theme (which is related to the windows theme)
When i try to change the Theme, either nothing happens, or it just doesnt show any Themes, even tho i installed more than 14 (they are disabled tho).
Second problem:
I can not code in Javascript anymore. There is just no collor at all. No marking for functiond etc.
Third problem:
My IDE is crashing almost everytime, I try to open a new, or existing project.
Why is that, has someone simular issues, and what can i do, to prevent having to reinstall my IDE, as i do not want to set my IDE up again.
Thank you in regards
You will have to reinstall. But you can save the Config file.
So you can keep all your settings.
Here are the Paths for windows
Windows:
Configuration: %APPDATA%\JetBrains\IntelliJIdea2020.3
Plugins: %APPDATA%\JetBrains\IntelliJIdea2020.3\plugins
System: %LOCALAPPDATA%\JetBrains\IntelliJIdea2020.3
Logs: %LOCALAPPDATA%\JetBrains\IntelliJIdea2020.3\log
Hope this helped.
Version 2018.2 182.3684.101
every 2 sec. again and again.
other project not like this.
I have to tr fild->Invalidate Caches / Restart.
no use.
What can I do now?
It's a known issue specific to Android support.
The issue is already addressed in IntelliJ IDEA 2018.2.1 version.
I recently upgraded from Intellij 12 to 13.0.2 on a Windows XP PC. Apart from minor settings like toolbar missing etc rest looks fine.
However the most annoying issue is that Intellij doesn't allow any other window to be on top of it. If I open a browser, it automatically goes behind the Intellij window.
I already tried setting the "Always on top" to false.
I know it sounds very trivial and stupid, but is there some setting that I need to change ?
Try to restart your IDE - this should normally solve the problem.
It seems to be an error in the IDE that will probably be fixed soon. Since there is this simple workaround, it might take a while till they fix it.
as already described in title, i'm not able to open the project structure dialog window in intellij anymore.
neither the shortcut (Ctrl+alt+shift+s) nor the menu element under File -> Project Structure nor the little button in the upper right corner do work.
Clarification: Menu element :
This "bug" occured suddenly as I wrote a web (vaadin/maven) project and tried to set up glassfish, where i often had to switch to the project structure dialog.
Since the first occurence i wasn't able to fix it by restarting intellij or switching projects.
This also happened on my laptop running the same intellij and windows version (Ultimate 13.0.1 Build: 133.331 on Windows 7 x64)
i appreciate any help!
This also happened to me, but removing new plugins etc didn't help.
Nor did nuking my project and rebuilding it from scratch.
In the end I deleted all caches, restarted Intellij and at last I could access the project settings again! By the way, I'm using Intellij 11.1 - mainly because I can't get 13 to start up, but that's another story
Your log shows that it is a bug in IntelliJ IDEA - they are trying to create file passing null pathname. Try to delete project files and reopen project from scratch (maybe you've lost some file) - if it won't help then you should create an issue here: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/ - You can even copy-paste text from your question and attach stacktrace
I had the same issue...upon further inspection in the log dump...I noticed the following:
ERROR - llij.ide.plugins.PluginManager - com.intellij.openapi.fileChooser.FileChooserDescriptor.setTitle(Ljava/lang/String;)V
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.intellij.openapi.fileChooser.FileChooserDescriptor.setTitle(Ljava/lang/String;)V
at com.jetbrains.python.sdk.PythonSdkType.getHomeChooserDescriptor(PythonSdkType.java:247)
Disabled the latest Python Plugin and restarted and everything is working normal again.
I remembered I had recently update my python plugin and am not using it presently so I was able to disable it without issue.
Hope this helps someone else.
This also happened to me. The comment above helped. I had just added some plugins. Disabled them and it started working again. Not sure exactly which one because I disabled all 4 -- Bean Validation Support, Bitbucket, Jelastic Cloud Platform Integration, and Quick Notes.
For me it has been resolved by switching off FindBugs plugin and restart IDEA. So Project Structure is available for me now.
One of the plugins might be causing it. To disable a plugin, go here:
You'll know for sure if a plugin is bad if you see this Exclamation picture:
Clicking on it will bring up a pop-up. To disable the plugin, click on this:
For me it got resolved just by restarting the intelliJ IDEA. I'm using intelliJ IDEA Ultimate 2018.1 edition.
I.T. gave me an upgrade to V5 and I can't see my directory listing.
Maybe I bumped a hotkey i don;t know about?
You can see a screengrab here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/23768853/help.jpg
I'm combing thru all the preferences but so far nothing, anyone know how to make it come back?
Fixed !
I.T. re-copied the application into the application folder and webstorm is working normally again.
Surprising to think that the application can run even after a corrupt install.
