  • Opening WinZip files?

    I've just bought a Mac mini and would like to know if there is a software which allows opening WinZip files, or one equivalent for compressing files.
    Mac mini   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    These should be opened automatically with OS X.
    The Finder includes an archive function saved in zip format.
    To compress files, select the file or files you want to compress via the Finder, then at the Finder menu bar choose File > Create Archive of.
    A compressed archive of the files is created. If you archive a single item, the archived file has the name of the original item with a .zip extension. If you archive multiple items at once, the archived file is named Archive.zip. The recipient of your archived attachment can simply double-click the file to open it, which creates an uncompressed copy of the original item or folder.

  • My windows(8.1 64bit) partition is read only from the mac(yosemite) side of things. Anybody have a clue on how to fix this? Also, slightly frustrating as well, windows crashes every time I attempt to open a file from the mac partition.

    All Office applications will also try to open a temporary work file in the same location as the source file. This implies the source file directory also needs to be writable for this temporary file. Since the default HFS+ driver provides only read-only access, such temporary files will fail to open, and will cause the application to fail.
    As a test copy the file you want to edit, say an Excel spreadsheet from the OSX file system to the C: drive on the Windows side and try to open it. If you look in this directory, you should see two files, the source and a temporary file. You may have to force the temporary file to be opened on a read-write file system, by manipulating the folder for temporary files.

  • I tried opening my Mac files to windows by using Macdriver 8, however upon opening the file my previous mac folders were converted to windows shortcuts and upon returning to my mac pc, all my folders has a .lnk file extension which I cannot open.

Need help very badly since the hard drive I use is the only back up I have for my very old pics. Thank you...

    Backup with cloning software your HD to have an exact copy of it as it is.
    Use this methodology to recover your partition.
    Have fun,

    Letter-Spacing is different if I open my file at another Mac of us (Value is at both mac 0, but the text is longor), and if I cklick into the text-box, Illustrator says that the file was made in an other Version of Illustrator. We have on all macs the same system, os 10.8.3, cs6 and UTC4. And of course we`re using exactly the same font....

    I believe the first thing to do is to update to 16.0.5.

  • How do I open .exe files on my mac?

    How do I open .exe files on my mac? I've downloaded a bunch of programs but they are all in .exe format. Do I need a program to extract these files?
    Thanks,

    Ok thanks. So how do you install programs that you download from the internet? I've downloaded some programs and when I try to install them it doesn't work.
    First of all, you need to download things that are built to run on OS X - there is no way to install any Windows program in OS X.  You need windows to run Windows programs.
    Most downloadable programs for OS X will be distributed in a Disc Image file - *.dmg  You would double click one to open it.  Then, often it is as simple as drag the uncompressed folder to your Applications Folder.  Sometimes there may be an installer to run.  Once installed, you can eject the mounted dmg (drag it to the trash) and either keep is in case you ever need to reinstall, or delete it.

  • I can't open excel file on a mac!

    Hey All,
    I have been working on an excel file using both a mac and a pc. However, today I can't seem to open the file on my macbook (snowleopard) but I CAN open it on a PC. What is going on? I need to be able to open the file on my mac and a pc. At first I thought it was because I am running out a memory on my mac, however I tried opening the file on a desktop mac with a lot of memory, but the same thing seems to happen. Does anyone have any ideas what is going on????

    Yes, use the SL retail disc; hold down the C key on start up (wait for the chime if it's a bluetooth keyboard) until the Apple logo appears.
    OK the language page, then ignore the installer and go to the menu bar, Utilities menu > Disk Utility.
    Booted from the DVD you will now be able to use the 'Repair Disk' button to repair the HD.
    Run 'Repair Disk' again after repairs have been reported, until the green message "The Volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" appears.
    Then Quit DU, quit the installer and restart from Macintosh HD.
    There should be no loss of data, but you should always have a backup of that anyway.
    If a message appears saying DU can't repair the drive, repost here for further instructions.

  • Opening ITHMB files on my mac

    Why cant i open ithmb files on my mac? I have recently changed from PC to mac...thought ithmb was an apple format?

    Hi attekiller,
    Terminal seemed to work, but when i told it to execute, it said that I did not have the permission to do so, even though I am the root administrator. I selected the bat file and went file> get info to change the permission, but it said i could only read and write, not execute it. Does this mean that I cannot use terminal to open this?
    Terminal refuses to execute the file as a precaution, since it can not execute the instructions included in the file.
    Read+Write only means that you can 'edit' the text file, but Terminal (and OSX) have no way to execute the Windows System Calls in it.
    I have Crossover lying around since the LameDuck day but haven't had the time to 'play' with it.
    As said you have to execute the batch file while you are in Crossover Windows, so maybe when you import/copy the .bat file into Crossover when running it should enable you to run the file (using the Windows Command Prompt for example).
    Try the Crossover Support Forums or Library http://www.codeweavers.com/support/ for help on how-to do this.

  • I cannot open pdf files on my mac

    can anyone help me find out how I can open pdf files on my mac? I used to be able to open them and all of a sudden, whenever I link on a pdf file, it directs me to a blank screen. Thanks!

    You can download Adobe Reader from adobe.com.  The Mac OSX uses its "reader" to open PDF files without the Adobe Reader.  If you downloader adobe reader, it should open all PDF files.  Hope this helps.

  • Cannot open \\psf\home\some_file error message when trying to open some file located on Mac hard drive

    I have trio of 27 inch iMacs in my office and we all use Parallels 8 to develop content in Framemaker.  We have two 3 tb LaCie D2 Network 2 NAS' drives that we need to move our content to  one and do backups to the other.  The backups from the iMacs are working just fine (everything is MacOS, of course it works).  The error in the title is what I am getting after trying to access the NAS from windows  running in Parallels 8.
    Why do I want  to do this?  Our main network server is 500 miles away and so is the DNS server, so when that connectivity is lost  I can't access my work locally (even though I can see file server (a Mac pro running Ubuntu or some such OS (honest, I didn't do it!!)).
    Why?? I just want to have a a little control over my data and some resonable expectation that someone is planning for emergencies by having a robust strategy to file protection (I don't  right now, and I can't risk my hard earned work).
    All my workstations connect to a gigabit switch  as do the LaCies.
    Both LaCies are initialized as HFS+.
    I  know I'm missing something,  I whish I knew what it is ( then the solution is easy!!)
    Ideas?

    I think it's the content of the include that is causing your
    troubles. Somehow you created a menu using Fireworks(?) or
    Dreamweaver(?) and Contribute indicates javascripterrors, not php
    errors...
    Maybe its better, in this case, constructing a menu that
    contains only an unordered list (check out project7 menus, or stu
    nichols css site for more examples). Updating the menu will be
    simpeler and also with less chance of errors by users. You can open
    such a file without any troubles in Contribute.

  • Can't open DNG files created with Mac CS5 downloader in Mac CS4 Photoshop

    I recently installed CS5 on my mac but I kept CS4 installed as well.  I notice that I cannot open DNG files created with CS5 in Photoshop CS4.  Bridge CS4 shows the files only as icons - no image thumbnails.  I am able to open these same files on a Windows version of CS4.  Is there some plugin for my mac CS4 that will enable me to access the DNG files created with CS5?  Is there a way to use my CS5 downloader when converting my raw files from my camera to DNG files that will make them compatiple with PS and Bridge CS4?

    Well, yes...but you'll need to modify your DNG Converter prefs to allow for that. You''ll need a recent (ideally current DNG Converter 6.4.1 or above) and click on the DNG Converter preferences and select the correct DNG Converter options. Check DNG Converter 6.4.1 (the current version) and click on "Change Preferences" to be sure select Camera Raw 5.4 and later then make sure CS4 is updated to ACR 5.7 (which is the last version of ACR for CS4) However, the changes made to ACR 6.x really should be adopted since IQ for ACR 6.4.x is a lot better...
