Open file vi return not a refnum in executable

Hey there,
I have a the "Open/Create/Replace File" vi in an executable. It works perfectly fine on my development machine, both in development and in the executable. When I install it on another machine, the <not a refnum>-function returns true.
It seems to me, that the file is not opened properly, even though it exists. There is no error, indicating that there has been a problem opening the file, so I am confused.
Did any of you come across this ... bug(?) and knows what to to about it?
Thanks in advance
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Soana,
to show the error messages is just the default setting of the development environment...
It's nice to see "I'm feeling stupid" marked as solution
Best regards,

Cannot open file, Photoshop is not compatible with this version of photoshop. 2 weeks

This has been a problem for almost 2 weeks now. Cant save any work in photoshop, files are unretrievable once closed. I get the same error message. I spent all of last week online with Adobe Tech support, screen sharing conference etc, now iMac isnt working properly. AAARRFGGHH.
Same prob on iMac and new Macbook pro
Last week Adobe via screen share uninstalled and re-installed Photoshop, took a few hours and still nothing. I have lost many hours work here. Cant reach Adobe and I am really pissed off. Cant reach a human via the support emails they aren't working. I have asked to speak to a Programmer or Manager for help with this and I have received none!
Latest message sent through to Support:
OLd support file not opening.
I cant open this one:
1/26/11 Case #0182004961: Unable to open some photoshop documents.
Open - Pending Adobe Response
So we need to start a new way of communicating. I am really upset with Adobe, my Photoshop has been working improperly for almost 2 weeks now. Adobe accessed my computer last week and now MY COMPUTER is not working Properly. I NEED ALL OF THIS FIXED IMMEDIATELY PLEASE!!!!!!
DO NOT withdraw this support topic. Please get a Manager to address this issue ASAP!!!!!!
If anyone reading this can get me through to the right person I would appreciate it. Hopefully Adobe will make reparation for all the trouble caused and time lost!
I should add that last night I tried to contact Adobe to see what the hold up was. I went and tried to open up the case file (No it had not been withdrawn and was still active), but it would not open. So, I started up a new support file with a whole new case number, I received an email this morning from Adobe saying that I would have to communicate with them through the original case #. Went to respond to this email today and the NEW case file had been withdrawn.
Yes, I have read all the user forums on this stuff for months, NO I am not using any Anti Virus stuff, No I did not upgrade my Macs at the time of the prob appearing! Thanks

I keep getting the message: "what should firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

cor-el,
Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

After update to OS X Maverick I can not open files in Lotus Notes Smart suite. Is there any way to solve this problem?

After I updated to OS X Maverick I can not open files in Lotus Notes Smart suite. Is there any way to solve this problem?

Ok this worked to solve the error.
Use cmd prompt in windows 7 or 8 and run as admin:
sc config lanmanworkstation depend= bowser/mrxsmb10/nsi
sc config mrxsmb20 start= disabled
No need for all that power shell nonsense as shown elsewhere for windows 8.
That's it. Also force smb2 disabling on the apple side for good measure.
With the above I was able to network mavericks and windows 8.1 pro flawlessly. He issues I had before where I could not read video, ISO and audio files (but could open documents and pictures from the windows machine connected to an apple network share folder went away.

Cannot open file it does not appear to be a valid archive

While trying to download Oracle 8i/9i i keep getting the message
'Cannot open file it does not appear to be a valid archive'
Can someone please help me with this
i have tried to download this 10 times already but of no use
Thanks
Rimpy

I was getting a similar, if not the same, problem when I used IE 5.5 to download the file. It used to start extracting then stop about 75% of the way through and dump some error about the archive being corrupt and not being able to open it. After installing Netscape and disabling the download manager application, I was able to download and extrac the zip files with winzip 8 and also winrar without any problems.

How to open files with "return" key and delete files with "delete" key?

Hi friends,
It's been over a week since I got my iMac and I'm loving it. However, while I'm adapting alright to 'mac' key shortcuts (e.g. using the COMMAND-S for save as opposed to CONTROL-S used in PC).
However, there are 2 things that are annoying me greatly right now.
1. I like selecting files with keys as opposed to using the mouse. I make animations and prefer keyboard shortcuts. However, when I hit "return", instead of opening the file it goes into file-renaming mode. How do I change this? Likewise, I would like to delete files by hitting the delete key. This does not work - how do I change this?
2. When I click SHIFT key sometimes, it gets 'stuck' - which is annoying because I start typing CAPITALS when I wasn't aware I've activated the CAP-LOCK key. How do I get rid of this? Like, I don't want to hit SHIFT for instance, and have that up arrow thing 'stuck' there.
Your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi
Thanks for the star.
If you went into Mac Help & searched, 2 results come up:
Full keyboard access shortcuts for interacting with items (for selecting & activating controls).
Full keyboard navigation keyboard shortcuts (for navigating Desktop, Windows, Menu bar etc)
From the lists, select the link that closely describes your situation.
I have to say that I can't reproduce your problem, does this happen just in applications or in everything? I don't know if it's to do with this but pressing Shift 5 times turns on Sticky Keys & Option(Alt) 5 times to turn on Mouse Keys (System Preferences>Universal Access>Keyboard).
After typing "Sticky Keys" into Mac Help, I found this:
"Pressing a group of modifier keys as a sequence
To perform many tasks on your computer, you need to press one or more modifier keys (Shift, Command, Option, and Control) at the same time as another key. For example, pressing Shift-Command-Q in the Finder opens the Logout dialog.
If you have difficulty pressing several keys at once, you can make it easier to press a set of keys by turning on Sticky Keys in the Universal Access preferences pane. With Sticky Keys turned on, you can press a set of modifier keys as a sequence. As you press each key, the symbol for the modifier key appears on the screen.
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Universal Access. Then click Keyboard.
Select the On button next to Sticky Keys.
To hear a sound whenever the computer registers that you have pressed a modifier key, select "Beep when a modifier key is set."
To see an icon indicating which modifier keys you have pressed, select "Display pressed keys on screen."
You can also use Slow Keys to adjust the amount of time between when you press a key and when it is activated."
Any of this close to your problem?
Steve
Edit: I'm right, it's Sticky Keys:

What app do i need when i try to open a download and it says cannot open file, windows app not supported by osx

I am trying to download a video from the net and it appears in my download box, but when i try to open it, a message comes on that it cannot be opened because my system does not have the proper app to open windows. Can any one tell me what app i need to install on my macair to open my downloaded video?

You probably need to search for Flip4Mac to view a Windows video file on a Mac.

KDE open file dialog does not honor the global double click setting

I have checked both in system settings and in the file
$HOME/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals
to make sure the singleclick is set to false. Still in the open/save dialog the files are selected and opened in a single click.
This bug is not seen in chakra linux (which now has kde 4.8.2).
Anyone can confirm this?

It works for me.

Finder windows not opening, file transfer box not showing.

If I go to open Finder from the dock, or using Command + N a new window doesn't open, I have to open it using harddrive icon off my desktop. Also, when transferring files from drive to drive (either on my computer or across the network) the box showing how far the transfer has progressed doesn't turn up. These are causing me significant problems, so if anyone can help that would be hugely appreciated!
Oh, as I've been writing this about 30 finder windows opened at once, so it appears soemthing is delaying the response, although not regurlary, as they all opened at once. They do now open but the file transfer isn't showing still. My computer has been on an hour and a half for finder to sort itself out, it's ridiculous!

Hi MLansdell, Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Create a new account, name it "test" and see how your Finder works in that User acct? (That will tell if your problem is systemwide or limited to your User acct.) This account is just for test, do nothing further with it.
Open System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" make it an admin account.
Let us know and we'll troubleshoot this further.

Cannot open file because its not a movie file?

I have a file that was ingested using FCP and has been edited using FCP. I moved the file from the default place to a couple of different places for organizational purposes. After being absent for a couple of weeks, the video now cannot play. I try to reconnect in FCP and it is an unrecognized file. I try to open it in QT on multiple machines and QT cannot open it.
Not sure what to do next. Ideas?

Sorry. I thought I had mentioned that in the OP, however after looking I see that I didn't. The files were recorded from my camcorder. Its a consumer Canon HD camcorder. Pretty standard. I have used and ingested loads of video from this camera before.
Thanks

Saving and opening files in textedit not working

It was all good yesterday....today, I cannot open any previous files and documents in textedit, nor can I save any new ones.
Whats going on??? It says i dont have permissions and to open in finder and click get info...nothing is working??

Just need to know a couple of things to try to help you.
- Do files that you were able to open before, not open now, or are they different ones?
- Can you make a new file, type a couple of sentences, save as a word document, and open in text edit ?
- Are the files you can't open all old files?
- No matter what I do, I can't open a word file in Safari. I am assuming, "new to mac" means you were a Windows user. Were the files you are trying to open from your PC, if so, how did you get them on to the macbook?
All of this could have a bearing on your issue. Especially see if you can just create new file in your mac word trial program, type a couple of sentences, save, then try to open in Text Edit. If that works the legacy windows word files, or how you got them to the mac, could be the issue.

Error 'Unable to open file' when downloading SAP Query to Excel

Hi all
I'm running a SAP Query which is set to download straight to a spreadsheet (Pivot Table / Microsoft Excel). Intermittently it does not work - apparently at random (at least, I've can't recreate the error at will).
It does one of the following:
- Works ok, and creates the pivot table
- Gives an Excel error message 'Unable to open file', then returns to the 'save the data in a spreadsheet' popup when enter is pressed on the error.
- Does not issue error message, just goes to the 'save the data in a spreadsheet' popup.
In the last two cases, the excel pivot table sheet is not created.
Has anyone seen anything similar, or have any idea as to what is causing the problem?
Any help gratefully received!
Not urgent as I've found a way round - further testing seems to show that I don't get the error is Excel is already open - but in the past I've run many SAP query downloads without needing to open Excel first. I suppose it's possible that this is just something to do with the Excel setup at the user site

Hi,
Ensure that file name with same name and in same path should not be open while saving the data.
Award if it helps.

Cannot open files in illustrator - no error message, just the spinning wheel endlessly rotating!

I worked on lots of very simple illustrator files yesterday and saved them all as .ai files. Today, I started up my mac and I cannot open a single file that I worked on yesterday. I don't get any error messages, the coloured wheel just spins endlessly and the files don't open, or with some files the artwork opens up so I can see it but the wheel is still spinning so I can't actually do anything. Even if I leave it, for up to an hour, the wheel doesn't stop. I have been able to open files that were not worked on yesterday, no problem.
I have shut down and re-started the computer 4 times now, but it hasn't improved the situation.
Does anyone know what is wrong?
Thanks

You may be linked to an image (of auto opening font)that went corrupt, is there a comon image between them. If so put that image temporarily in a folder to break the link.
Try making a new user account, or opening on another computer if you can. How do the file size look on the document, are the the size they are supposed to be?
Try resettting your preferences. Cmd-Opt-Ctrl-Shift when restarting AI on a Mac or Alt-Crtl-Shift on a PC to reset to the defaults.
Is the problem definitely associated to them being on the same date, or is the similarity possibly a job with similar fonts/images?

It gives Fr-18108 when OLB is attached with he form
A timely help is needed...
Thanx in advance..
with cheers
sprity....

sprity,
Did you copy the .OLB file(s) to your LINUX server also? If not, you will need to copy them as well as your forms 'Inherit' the shared objects from the .olb's so they have to be present in the FORMS_PATH on the server when you compile your .fmb's. If you did copy them, first make sure they were copied via Binary Mode and if so, then I would refer you back to Grant's post and suggest you make sure the files were copied via 'Binary' mode to the LINUX server. Rather than Copy and Paste the files, you may want to FTP from a command prompt or a FTP Program so you can ensure the files are moved to the LINUX server in Binary mode.
