If you have Excel installed, do a repair install.

  • I have iphone6 and I cant open PDF files which attached to my email

    Dear All
    I have iPhone and I cant open PDF files which attached to my email
    Regards

    thanks for the suggestions weather15 - the firefox help site you directed me to explains what ought to happen but i cant make it work. I shut my firefox browser on my new machine and attach the hard drive from my old machine. I can explore the contents of that drive but when i search it for the suggested folder " %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\" nothing is found. when i try and open firefox from the old drive, the browser opens that is the new version that i have on my new computer with no saved bookmarks! Am I doing everything right?

  • Still cant open embedded files with Adobe Reader 10.0.1

    Hi!
    In the first version of Adobe Reader X you had to disable the Protection Mode in order to open PDF-files on a network drive or that are embedded in a i.e Word document.
    I have now upgraded my version to 10.0.1.
    The first issue seems to be solved (open files on a network drive). But I still cant open PDF files embedded in another file??
    I get the error message: The Program used to create this object is AcroExch. That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding. To edit this object, install AcroExch or ensure that any dialog boxes in AcroExch are closed.
    And if I try to embedd a PDF-file myself into a document I get the same result.
    As soon as I turn of the Protection Mode it works...
    Is there a way to keep the PM on and still be able to open documents???
    Regards Daniel

    I'm not sure why Adobe hasn't looked into this.  One description elsewhere in the forum seems to suggest that if the computer has had older versions of the reader installed, it will work -- somehow the embedded file needs an older registry key.  I have yet to try installing older versions of reader onto my machine.  This machine has only had reader 10 installed on it.
    I tried the recommendation that is given in another thread.  Turn off running reader in protected mode.  The first time I did it, it didn't work.  The second time I unchecked the "use in protected mode" box, I closed and then reopened reader.  Now I can open embedded pdfs in word.

  • After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading.

    After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading. I have no special software like numbers or anything else installed on either device. Just using the default viewer provided by apple for viewing email.

    The attachment is an .xls excel 97-2003 spreadsheet. I viewed the file in the email and did not edit it with any software. I can forward the file to anyone that is may want to check it out to see if they can help me. I was wondering if there was some way of forcing another ios6 install on my phone and maybe that would solve it.
    Is there anyone out there that is viewing .xls files in email using ios6 w/o any other software installed like numbers or any other add ons? I am not upgrading my ipad from ios5 to ios6 so I can still continue to view the emails on my ipad. Is there an email viewer .xls plug-in that will be availablle in the next ios6 update?

  • I am using I Photo 9.2.3 with OS 10.6.8 When I upgraded to current I photo some of my Iphoto books i put together disappeared.  Cant find them anywhere, including in the time machine...I photo cant open older files...How can a find  th book entitled "Mom"

    I am using I Photo 9.2.3 with OS 10.6.8 When I upgraded to current I photo some of my Iphoto books i put together disappeared.  Cant find them anywhere, including in the time machine...I photo cant open older files...How can a find  the book entitled "Mom"  ?  Does Apple keep ordered books on file?

    Apple keeps books for a short time (used to be 40 days. I've not seen a recent time frame)
    What version did you have?
    Books do nor exist except in the iPhoto database so you can not "find" a book vista TM. You restore a previous library (be sure NOT to overwrite your current library) and switch to it

  • How to open xls files in Mountain Lion

    I upgraded to Mountain Lion and now cannot open xls files.  xlsx files open fine. Is there a way to convert the xls files?

    I think I have the same issue. I had xls associated with Openoffice but after upgrading xls opens with Preview. I tried to change it using CMD+I but when I select Openoffice it returns to Preview.... And yes I also tried to change the extention into xlsx but that also didn't solve the issue

  • I just cut and pasted photos from the phone into my HP and now I can't open the files in the computer.

    I just cut and pasted photos from my Iphone into my HP.
    NOw when I go and try to open the files from the computer it's giving me an error:
    INVALID IMAGE
    The file format is not supported or is invalid
    WHat's confusing is that all files copy into my computer are already JPG. I have not changed anything, simply cut photos from my phone and copy them in my computer.
    I need help !!! I have a lot of my baby photos and videos that I really want to recover.
    PLEASE !
    thank you

    Try using a photo import utility or application for this instead of doing it the archaic manual way. Even Windoze includes a scanner and camera wizard that can be used for this.

  • Sony NEW RX10 & iPhoto Cant open RAW files

    Hey Guys, I know that not ALL RAW files are equal! I just picked up a NEW SONY RX10 and its shooting RAW files in Sony's ARW format.. I see that the NEW a7's are updated in OSX updates, Im assuming that the a7's and the New RX10 are the same ARW format, but I cant open these files in Preview and Iphoto wont see them either! Im using OSX 10.8.5 (ML) and Iphoto 11 (9.4.3) (720.91) Is anyone else having this issue with a RX10 or newer Sony camera with ARW files... Please reply! I really would like to shoot in RAW and use iPhoto to edit! I guess not ALL SONY .ARW are equal????

    Im assuming that the a7's and the New RX10 are the same ARW format,
    There you go - that is an incorrect assumption (as most assumptions are - as you know when you assume you make an ***ume out of ***ume & assume) - every RAW format for every camera is different and requires specific support for tha tcamera - notice in the support list that many different cameras in the same family are listed seperatly
    Usually Apple releases Sony RAW support pretty quickly since Sony is a major manfactuer of consumer and professional cameras
    Tell Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
    The Sony software that came with the camera may help (although my experiance is that Sony has poor to non-existance support for Macs) and possible the Adobe RAW converter can help until Apple releases the required update
    And it is very possible that the update will only apply to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5.x so it is possible that you will have to upgrade your OS and iPhoto (both free) - when you do be sure to backup first
    The current Mavericks list is at http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5955

    What version of Office? If 2004 or X, upgrade to 2011. Or use one of the free alternatives.
    Other than that, please provide more details.

  • Photoshop cs3 cant open CR2 files

    i cant open CR2 files in photoshop cs3 ( nope in bridge cs3)
    please tell me what should i do or download?
    thank you

    Troubleshooting 101: What OS? What camera? What version of Camera Raw do you have installed?
    Odds are you either need to update Camera Rae to 4.6 (the last for CS3) or download the DNG Convertor 5.4 to convert recent (as in the latest Rebel or 5D M3's).
    A place to stop regarding compatibility would be the Camera Raw product page and if you had bothered to mention your OS we could point you to downloads as well.

    Subject: cant open xmp files in photoshop element 8
    An xmp file is not an image. Usually those are the files containing the settings used for raw conversion, any metadata keywords, and other data that PS/PSE can't write to the files themselves. If those really are all the files on your disc, contact the photographer, because it sounds like someone made a mistake.
