Set Default Opening Application for a certain type of file?

I need some help saving time! I have lots of .groovy files that my apple doesn't know how to open and i have to select a default opening application for every single file! Is there a way to do this for multiple files or for a certain file type? thanks!
amber

Sure. Click on a file, and then go to File-Get Info (or CMD-I) In the box that pops open, choose the app you want the .groovy files to open with, and click change all. That should do it.

Setting default "Open With" for files

Trying the set Photoshop CC 2014 as the default program for all PSD files. When I select Photoshop CC 2014 as the default and select change all, the default reverts back to the old Photoshop CS6 - which is still installed. Any ideas?

I vaguely remember something about this, I can't find the particulars I posted here, only a reference on my site...
Then, I wonder if they did something like adobe did, a special folder of filetype lists & they had a background App running that would over ride opening graphic files in other apps.

Setting default opening date for iCal calendar to be some future date?

Is it possible to set the default date at which an iCal calendar opens to be some specified future date?
I want to enter multiple events for a week-long program that begins on November 1, 2008, into a special iCal calendar for that program, as the dates and times for those events become known between now and then. So, each time I click on that calendar's icon, I'd like to have it open at 1 Nov 08, instead of having to step forward to that date each time I re-open the calendar.
Any way to do this?

christ. no answer to this?
i just did this on a trip to boston and i /thought/ i had it fixed when i went to paris recently.
perhaps getting a new motherboard on my MBP means i have to set my settings again to get this to work? does anyone know if this only works by setting a /combination/ of settings on iCloud and in iCal preferences...?

Have set Gmail as application for mailto, but mailto: links don't work.

I'm using FF 22 on a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.7.5. In Preferences>Applications I have set the app for mailto as Gmail. However, mailto links refuse to work. They generally open a blank tab. Gmail is also set as the default mail application for the system. That didn't help.

Default Purchasing organisation for Purcashing Document type

Dear Gurus,
I need to make default Purchasing organisation for Purcashing Document type. How to configue this. Please advice me.
Thanks
RS

Hi,
You can do it with Personal Setting option which is available in purchase order header level.
Click on this button, Go in Defaults Values.
Enter material type, purchasing org. and other required detail.
Then always at the time of purchase order creation you got same material type and purchasing org.
Note: You can do it for only one material type and purchasing org.

How to add a default user group for multiple document type's?

Hi,
I am trying to add same default user group for different document types when MA is created. Is there any way to setup using a single "Document Security Template"? Or I need to create different templates for different document types?
Please confirm.
Thanks,
Saloni

Hi Saloni,
Based on what your specific requirement, it might be easier to do it with scripting.
If you are doing it using Document Security Templates, you would have to create a Document Security Template for each of the 6 MA types and assign the default group. Create another one and leave the Document Type field blank, so it will apply to the other 4 MA types that don't have a default group.
Regards,
Vikram

Problem Instanciating BO - No default attribute defined for the object type

Hello Experts,
I am instanciating the BO BUS2038 to ZBUS2038 and when I click in u201Cto implementedu201D and follow u201Cto releasedu201D the message No default attribute defined for the object type is appearing!
Can anybody help, please?

Hello everyone,
it appears to me, that no one has a clue about the "default attribute" and is widely guessing what can be done about that.
I feel deeply sorry for that, Marcos.
At first: You don't really need to care about the missing default attribute. If it's missing, the object's instance key will be used instead. Skip the warning message.
Secondly: The default attribute is used to display the instance within the "Object links & Attachments" under the work item preview when using the SAP Business Workflow.
Thirdly: You can select any existing attribute of your business object type to be the default attribute, by navigating to the "Basic data" (it's the heat-icon within the object builder), use tab "Defaults" and use the Input Help on the field "Attribute".
There you'll go.
Best wishes,
Florin

Is it possible to set an opening date for a password protected file

Is it possible to set an opening date for a password protected file!
I want to lock a folder and then have it open on a perticular date not just open with a password so that i am not tempted to open it. Is it possible?

Yes. Go to the Settings app, and select safari. There will be a section called "Autofill", and you can enable it to save your passwords and auto-fill your personal information taken from the address book. Also, iOS automatically saves all Wi-Fi passwords, so there is no need to save it manually yourself.

Set default grid artwork for composer grid view

As the title I wanted to know if there is a way to set default grid artwork for composer grid view.
Thanks.

Nope. It is the first image from the first track of the first album that has artwork. As you move your pointer over the icon you will get any other images assoicated with that composer.

Set default import format when drag and drop sound file into multitrack view?

I've looked around the preference panels but cannot find where to set the import settings for dragging and dropping sound files into multitrack view. Some of our computers have correct settings and others do not. Thanks for your help!
G

I should have been more specific, sorry... I mean bit depth and bit rate... On some machines this defaults correctly and on other machines it is wrong. Not sure how to set these to downconvert properly by default. Unless it automatically takes the format of the source file, in which case it's just been luck.
Thanks,
G

Disallow check-in of certain types of files

Hey
We want to be able to reject check-in of certain types of files (for example, executables, videos, exremely large documents).
I am thinking that the best way of doing this would be to develop a filter that intercepts the check-in service and fails the check-in if the file meets specified criteria.
Anyone have any thoughts on this. Is there an easier way (existing components or config)?
Thanks,

There's a couple of posts on this topic - check for instance this one: Restricting Content that can be checked in

You don't have an application to edit this type of file?

Just installed the trial version to learn how it works.
When trying to play around with my site I keep on getting this message/notice "You don't have an application to edit this type of file" everytime I click on edit this page. Does anyone know what this means, and what the issue is?
Thank you in advance.

I never tried importing from the iPhoto library as referenced images. I wonder if Aperture can access images stored in an iPhoto library package? Even if it would work, it sounds like a bad thing to do.
You might consider starting over and this time have Aperture manage the images. That will copy them to the Aperture library, leaving the iPhoto library untouched. This assumes you have sufficient space to make a complete copy of all the images in your iPhoto library plus another copy of each image that Aperture makes as the preview image. You can then back up your iPhoto library (two backup copies, just to be sure) then remove it from your hard drive when you start getting too low on space. As I write this I don't know where your iPhoto or Aperture libraries are/will be located so I'm assuming you have them on your HD.

Setting Default GUI Properties for Opened Files?

OK, so you can set up a template for AIs you create yourself, to include things like Layer Panel thumbnail size etc, but can this be done for opened files?
I work on a very large screen and always want to increase the layers panel thumbnail size, but it's a few clicks to do it, and I'd like to be able to set this value for all opened files, if this is possible. The default thumb. size is way to small and always needs bumped up.
Are these values stored in the AI (since templates are simply AI files) or can a default value be set? if so, how can I do this?
Thanks
Richard

You cannot change this for all opened files, as this is a per document setting unfortunately.
To make a new document profile as per Monika open one fo the profiles here:
Users/ Username/ Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS4/en_US/New Document Profiles
Change your thumbnail size to larger, then save over that profile
When you make a new document choose that profile.

How can I change the default application for a content type?

Running a version of Linux, the default application for PDF files is "Use Document Viewer (default)", which appears to be /usr/bin/evince. I'd much prefer to use /usr/bin/okular; how can I change the default. This question is NOT about how to change the function that is automatically applied when I access a link, in this case "Preview in Firefox", but rather to the default application that I can select when I download a file being viewed in Firefox's previewer.

This is real progress, a solution to the problem as posted. The command:
xdg-mime default okularApplication_pdf.desktop application/pdf
makes okular the default.
However when I added okular to the choices for applications in:
* Edit>Preferences>Applications>PDF
the popup box that appears when I click Download on the preview page changed. The pulldown menu that appears next to "Open with" used to have 3 entries:
# Document Viewer (default)
# Acroread
# Other
Now it has only 2:
# Okular (Default)
# Other
I'd like it to read
# Okular (Default)
# Acroread
# Other
How can I control the entries in this pulldown list?
Also, how can I make the default choice in the popup box be
* Open With <whatever> , rather than
* Save File ?

How to set a default open with, for all files

I would simply like to make all my .avi files to open with VLC, rather than Quicktime. I have done the "change default open with", but it's only for that file.
Any way to make all avi's open with VLC?
Thanks!

Right-click any .AVI file and select Get Info. Under the "Open with" section, select the app you want, and then press the "Change All" button.
