finder not working, when click the infinity sigh comes, can't open any file?

That could be an indication your drive is failing. If you do not have a current Backup, that is top priority.

  • Hi, my macbook pro's PREVIEW is not working at all. That means I can't open any picture and pdf file. Is there a solution or any alternative software? Thanks!!

    thanks!!

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • The dropdown list in the address bar does not work when clicked

    In the address bar the dropdown list icon does not work when clicked. I have tried resetting everything in safemode and it still doesn't work. When I click on the icon it just highlights the entire address line.

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

    What app are you using?
    Here's something strange I've noticed in Mail a couple times.
    For some reason Mail opens several viewer windows all stacked on top of each other.
    So while click the close button does close the window, there's an identical on behind it.
    So it almost seems like clicking the close button has done nothing but it really has.
    Could this be what your seeing?

    Hi Ersin,
    Exception 1 would seem to be FORMATTING_ERROR, which suggests something in the design of the Smartform.  However, that doesn't fit with the form being generated from a report, but only erroring when called from a function module.  I can think of no reason why the different calling method would be a factor.
    When FORMATTING_ERROR is raise it should also set a message ID and number, are you able to determine what they are?
    Regards,
    Nick

    Hi paulsaundersdds,
    What type of file are those fax documents? Are they PDF files? What are you using to open them with--Acrobat or Reader?
    And, what happens when you try to open them? Do you get an error message? If so, what is it?
    Best,

    <Subject Edited by Host>

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    No data is lost due to a reset.

  • SSO not working when launching the InfoView application

    We are so close to implementing SSO for BO Edge 3.0 using AD and Kerberos.  We can logon to InfoView and CMC using AD authenication and it works fine.  When turning on SSO:
        <context-param>
            <param-name>sso.enabled</param-name>
            <param-value>true</param-value>
        </context-param>
    in the InfoViewApp web.xml it fails with an error message in the Tomcat stdout.log
    Debug is  true storeKey false useTicketCache false useKeyTab false doNotPrompt false ticketCache is null isInitiator true KeyTab is null refreshKrb5Config is false principal is null tryFirstPass is false useFirstPass is false storePass is false clearPass is false
    +          [Krb5LoginModule] user entered username: "at"MYCOMPANY.COM+
    User name is missing.
    When done through the application logon screen and able to logon it is
    Debug is  true storeKey false useTicketCache false useKeyTab false doNotPrompt false ticketCache is null isInitiator true KeyTab is null refreshKrb5Config is false principal is null tryFirstPass is false useFirstPass is false storePass is false clearPass is false
    +          [Krb5LoginModule] user entered username: dennis"at"MYCOMPANY.COM+
    The username appears in the log file followed by the debug message for Kerberos key being created.
    I am so close, does anyone have an idea?

    Hi Tim,
    The Vintela SSO document for BOE XI 3.1 is very comprehensive, but it has not resolved my issue.
    Under NTLM option I SSO works great with .NET InfoView as long as I have the web site authentication set to Windows Authentication and ASP .NET Authentication enabled.  Once the ASP .NET is disabled, SSO does not work.
    When using the Kerberos option, .NET InfoView SSO does not work due to the error 'propagating the security context between the security server and the client'.
    The Java InfoView SSO does not work either, but I can enter my user credentials and logon fine.
    std.out error:
    Debug is  true storeKey false useTicketCache false useKeyTab false doNotPrompt false ticketCache is null isInitiator true KeyTab is null refreshKrb5Config is false principal is null tryFirstPass is false useFirstPass is false storePass is false clearPass is false
              [Krb5LoginModule] user entered username: @OR.PROVIDENCE.ORG
    Acquire TGT using AS Exchange
              [Krb5LoginModule] authentication failed
    Generic error (description in e-text) (60)
    No user name is being passed.  I've been through a multitude of documents and forums ensuring settings are correct and I believe they are including no duplicate SPN's.
    The only issue on the server is that I cannot open the tomcat confi app. due to it not able to start service BOE120Tomcat.  I was able to update the registry with the info for the bsclogin.config and krb5.ini.  I was not able to find anything on getting that service started.
    Any ideas?  Need more info? I have a bunch. 
    Thanks and have fun,
    Phil

  • My volume is not working when on the ringer what do I do

    My iPhone volume is not working when I have the volume set on. It will work with the headphones but other then that nothing. What's going on with it?

    Running an adware script is not related to a power button issue. That's hardware, not software.
    Make sure you are holding down the power button long enough.

  • Why the Finder Search-Function is corrupted in Mavericks so that I cannot open any file after searching it?

    Finder Search-Function is troubled / corrupted / misfunctioning
    When keying in a search word the files are selected properly, yet not shown with details. Furthermore you cannot click and open any file. Also sorting is not possible.
    Anyone else has such a problem and has figured out on how to resolve it?
    (Spotlight works properly and is somehow a spare solution).
    There seem to be many basic problems with the finder in Mavericks, this problem unfortunately has not been resolved also with the last software-release 10.9.2.
    The quality strategy of Apple has to be questioned: I do not need 200 NEW functions, but I need the previous basic functions STILL working!
    Thank you!

    Re: Hi! I have a problem with finder 
    01.03.2014 12:14 (in response to Fexei)
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Re-launch Finder by logging out/in and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the same, return the .plist to where you got it  from, overwriting the newer ones.
    Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
    You might need to redo the View settings after an update.
    Resolved the Problem! Thanks to Eric and Leonie

  • Can't open any files in hotmail account or even post on there forum anymore. I am not receiving any error messages.

    This started a couple days ago. I can log into my hotmail account but I can't do anything once in it. What I can do from day to day varies. I have never received an error message. Day one I could log into hotmail but not open any files or emails. Day two was the same problem. Today, I was able to open some files and emails but cant send an email. I posted on hotmail's troubleshooting forum but today I can't even access their response to tell them their "solution" did not work. All that happens is I get the blue circle of Windows that shows up when waiting for something. The top tabs will indicate it is connecting and it flashes like crazy.

  • BT Broadband not working when on the phone

    Been a BT customer for couple of months.
    Multple devices are connected to the Hub no problems but when the phone rings the broadband does not work. 
    The Hub flashes orange almost everytime when someone is on the phone. Whether it be a outgoing or incoming call.
    Only using the master socket for both the phone and the Hub. Using the inbuilt filter on the socket. 
    If anyone could help with this issue I would greatly appreciate it.  
    Did not have this issue with Orange Broadband so there must be something wrong on BT's end not ours!

    Can you specify your current setup?
    Which Hub do you use?
    Does your phone socket have the 'Openreach' symbol on it?
    Do you use filters?
    Is your hub connected to the master socket?
    Is your phone connected to an extension socket?

  • Hyperlinks in Excel not working when doing the PDF Convert

    I have worked on this and worked on this. Now I am at a point where I need assistance as I am stumped.  I have about 20 different facilities that have financial statements that need to be published in Adobe as a PDF format and when I go through the steps to convert everything looks good, except the links are not working. We have about 62-74 pages that will be exported and due to the departments and such we need the links to work.
    This is through Excel-
    I  select the worksheets I want to convert then after it is done I open the PDF and the links are not working. To set them up manually in Adobe is too labor intensive -- any ideas on how to get this to work?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide me.

    I am on the X version.
    I am using the PDFMaker
    Using either 2003 or 2010 Excel version
    Click on making bookmarks and links
    I can send an attachment, please beware that is it financial information that cannot be published-also the hyperlinks are setup in Excel as well.
    Not sure how to upload the worksheet and would prefer to send via email if at all possible.
    ANY HELP is GREATLY Appreciated :-)
    Thank you and have a great day!
