Can't open files in Doc Library with IE

hello all:
I have a document library which has recently shown an issue.  There are many users that access this library with no problem.  Recently, a few users (3-4) have complained that they are no longer able to view files.  They are definitely able
to see the folder in which these files reside and then even see the file names & types.  However, when they click on the files they are getting a message saying they don't have permission to view.  The permissions have never been altered and
they are showing that they have Contribute level of permissions for this Doc Library.
Now here is the really odd part...it works fine with Chrome, but not IE.  I have tried various versions of IE from 9-11, both in & out of compatibility mode.
Any suggestions you might have would be appreciated.

  • Can't open files created in CS3 with CS4

    When I try to open a file that was created in CS3 I get this message:
    Cannot open the file "OpenEnrollSample.indd". Adobe InDesign may not suport the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be issing, or the file may be open in another application.
    This goes for both the InDesign files and the PDF files created with them. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? Thanks for any help.

    My Acrobat that is part of CS4 won't open the PDFs created by the CS3 InDesign file.  However, I do have the plugin to open PDFs in InDesign and that doesn't work with these files either.
    These are files I created so I know that they are InDesign files.
    I am running OS 10.6.8 and using CS4.

  • Iweb installed on a new computer but i have this error message: Can't open file "~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2."

    I have just installed ilife on my  new computer from my disk. I have several backups of my webpage from my  old computer. Everything would be great if I could just run the program. When I click the icon for iWeb I get the following message:  Can’t open file “~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2.”
    Somebody please help! I desperately need to update my website.

    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • Can't open file "~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites"

    I was working on iWeb today, doing the usual adding pictures, and gave a few pages some color, and a few pictures here and there.
    I restart my computer, because as usual, I almost have no memory left. When the computer is running again, I opened iWeb, and I get this odd message:
    Can't open file "~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites"
    Why is this here? I didn't do anything weird to trigger such message. The site was working perfectly fine! I tried taking the domain file to the desktop, then opening it once iWeb launches from there, and same message appears. I put it back to its place, and tried putting the iWeb plist on the desktop, and same deal!
    Everything is back in its place, I haven't changed or triggered anything to deserve this. I ran Onyx, full optimization update. I restarted computer, and conducted a full disk permission repairs. Only 1 error found out of another app.
    My computer is healthy, my programs are running fine. What is going on? Does anyone know how I can fix this?

    Hi
    Whaow 3.1GB. I'm sure iWeb has problems with that. I have the same problem with my iWeb. I have about 100 BLOG pages with a lot of pictures. Although iWeb scales the pictures when publishing (good!) it does not scale them when they are stored in the domains file/dir (bad!) So if you have an 8MP camera, this adds up after a while.
    You can open the comains file and try to figure out what causes the trouble. (Right click/CTRL click, open content) sort on size to see if you have some extremely large stuff in there (Movies???) Take them out and try to make them smaller.
    Good luck!!

  • Can't open file "~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2."

    Hello,
    I have been using iWeb for over a year and I have a lot of my work on it. But for some reason, when I went to open iWeb, I get the error message:
    +Can’t open file “~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2.”+
    Does anyone know how I can fix this and make sure my content doesn't get deleted?
    Thank You!

    Deleting the preference file does not affect the domain.sites2 file. If it's not in the default folder or has a name other than domain.sites2 then that's why iWeb couldn't find and open it. Find it and double-click on it to open it with iWeb 2. You do have a backup copy the domain file, right? If not download and use frequently the Automator application that Varkgirl created. You can get it at Varkgirl's iWeb Tips and Tricks site.

  • How do I reinstall iWeb 3.0.3?  I inadvertently opened an html file of my website and tried to open it with iWeb '09. I get a message saying "Can't open file" etc., etc. I've tried reinstalling the updated version. Iweb will not open.

    Delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder. Then launch iWeb and see if it opens. 
    What happened was trying to open the html file reset the file path that iWeb saves in its preference file to tell it where to go when you launch iWeb.  Deleting the pref file and launching iWeb creates a new file and iWeb looks in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder for the Domain.sites2 file it uses to create your site.

  • Getting error Can't open file "~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2." when trying to open iWeb?

    I recently had to replace my harddrive a few months back and tried to open my iWeb to update my website.  When I click to open it, I get "Can’t open file “~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2.”  I uploaded iLife again but that didn't seem to help.

    Did you confirm that you have a Domain.sites2 file in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder?  If so double click on it to try to open with iWeb.  If that doesn't work try the following:
    delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home()/Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
    launch iWeb and try again.
    If that doesn't help continue with:
    move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
    launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
    go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
    move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
    launch iWeb and try again.

  • Can't open file "/Library/WebServer/Documents/index.html.en."

    Can’t open file “/Library/WebServer/Documents/index.html.en.”

    You will never be able to open this file with iWeb, because, as it states it is a User/Sites/index.html file and iWeb cannot open this files - anything with html on the end of it is already published and iWeb cannot open this. It is not the same as your domain file.
    Go to User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites and try opening your domain file, rather than something that is already published. iWeb cannot import - at least not published pages.

  • Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path

    Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path using any of these perfectly normal methods:
    1. double-click file in the Finder (e.g in a Folder on your Mac or on your Mac desktop etc.)
    2. select file and choose "File... Open" command-o in the Finder
    3. drag file to the application icon in the Finder.
    4. Select file in Bridge and double-click, choose File.. Open.. or Drag icon to InDesign icon in dock.
    If you try to open an ID file named with a "#", you will get an error message "Missing required parameter 'from' for event 'open.'"
    This happens to any InDesign file that has a "#" (pound sign, number sign, or hash) in the filename or in the file path (any parent folder).
    To reproduce
    Name an InDesign file Test#.idd Try to open it in the Finder or Bridge (as opposed to the "Open" dilaog of InDeisng itself).
    "Solution"
    The file WILL open using File... Open... command-o while in InDesign application.
    Rename the file or folders that have a "#" (shift-3) in the filename.
    Report to Adobe if it bugs you.
    This does not occur in "plain" Leopard 10.5 nor Tiger 10.4
    Untested in Panther or before and
    Untested with CS3 and earlier in Snow Leaopard.
    Anyone have those and want to try this... ?

    In case this really bothers you: we've added a workaround for this into Soxy. If you enable the option, these documents will open fine on double-click.
    You need Soxy 1.0.7 from:
    http://www.rorohiko.com/soxy
    Go to the 'Soxy' - 'Preferences' - 'Other' dialog window, and enable 'Open InDesign via Script'
    (Irrelevant background info (it's all invisible to the user): the workaround works by special-casing how Soxy opens documents in InDesign: instead of using AppleScript, Soxy will use ExtendScript to instruct InDesign to open the document - which works fine).

  • I can't open attachments on my iPad 2.  I have downloaded the 8.0.2 software update.  I can't open jpgs, PDFs, docs. or movie files now.

    I can't open attachments on my iPad 2t and I can't open jpgs, PDFs, docs. or movie files now.

    Obviously, you are talking about the mail app, so force close the mail app and reset your iPad. If that fails, reset all settings.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it. 
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    When you reset all settings, you will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
