If an image opens in a different application but you want it to always open in Preview when you double-click it, do this one time: Control-click the file, let go of the Control key, press the Option key, then choose Always Open With > Preview. Or, select the image file, choose Get Info from the File menu, then change the "Opens with:" pop-up menu choice to Preview.

    I have tried back ups and  restoring, resetting, and even updating the pages app. And nothing has worked.

    how can i make my hyperlinks open in a new window or tab?

    The program is InDesign… we need to cease links which will open the linked document in a separate window.  Also, the links must be maintained once a pdf is made and the files moved to another computer….

  • When I have many tabs open, & I am viewing the 1st one in the row of tabs, how can I make ctrl+T open tab next to it instead of down at the end of all the tabs?

    If, for example, I have 50 tabs open, and I happen to be working on the very first tab out of the long row of tabs (tab #1 out of 50 total tabs)....if I suddenly need a new tab next to the one I'm on so that I can do something else related to what I am doing on my current tab's website, pushing ctrl+t opens up the new tab clear down at the very end of the long row of tabs (i.e., the new tab would be tab #51). How can I make the new tab open up right beside the one I'm working on at the moment?

    You would need an extension to achieve this
    You can look at this extension:

  • How can I make chromium to open PDF files directly in okular?

    Hi all,
    I switched from firefox to chromium and there is one thing that I would like to have solved: At the moment, the only way to open PDF files from the web is to first save them locally and open them afterwards from the chromium statusbar or from the chromium downloads tab (chrome://downloads/). Is there a way to configure chromium to open PDF files directly from a remote URL in okular?
    Thanks in advance & kind regards,
    jamesbond007.

    Yes, I would like to know that as well. Here it tries to open pdf files with the adobe plugin but fails (grey window). It's especially annoying with javascript links that do not allow to use "save as".

  • How can I make MS Word create PDF's again? After cancelling Adobe cloud, Word can no longer make PDF's. Worked before I used Adobe Cloud.

    Hi. I can no longer create PDF's in MS Office. Before I installed and ran Adobe Cloud, this worked. Now, after cancelling Adobe Cloud, Adobe has also shut down the PDF feature that worked without problem before. Adobe now wants me to subscribe to make Acrobat work. No way. Worked before so it should not have been withdrawn. Can someone tell me what I now need to do to re-enable the PDF feature in MS Office? Never had a problem with it before. If this happens every time that I subscribe and unsubscribe, then Adobe need to pull their finger out and stop tampering with other programs.

    Depending on which version of MS Office you have the Microsoft Save As PDF option is either an add-on or a feature.
    If you are using MS Office 2007, then  it's the Add-on and you need to either run repair for it from the Add/Remove Control Panel or reinstall the add-on.
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=7
    If this is a later version of MS Office (2010 or 2013) then the feature should be available and you should run repair from the Add/Remove control panel.

  • How can i make QuickTime movie open a browser window?

    like title says, how can i accomplish this when i create/edit the QT movie?
    thanks!

    You set the "href" link or use the target=your URL in your page code.
    Quicktime 7 can also be used to set some movie proprieties to open the file in a new Player window.
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/03war/
    One of my files that uses the QuickTime Player app.
    If you wish to include a "link" inside your file to automatically open a new Web page when a certain frame of your movie is played you need to include a HREFTrack.
    This feature is currently "broken" in the Windows version of QT 7.
    Older versions still incorporate the href track properly/

  • How can I make Photos not open every time a photo card is inserted?

    Hello,
    Every time I insert an SD or CF card or even my iPhone, Photos opens up. How can I stop this from happening? I looked everywhere and I can't find a solution, thanks.

    Go to Edit> Preferences. Under "Import Options" uncheck "Show import dialogue when memory card is inserted".

  • I can't open my iPad because I forgot my pass and now it's been disabled for about two weeks. How can I open it?

    I've been busy with school, thus making me have no time at all to use my iPad. Being the forgetful me, I can't remember my password. I tried entering some of the passwords I used but none of them worked. I forgot the recent password I've been using in my iPad. Now it's been disabled for more than two weeks. I want to use it so badly that I have to reboot it numerous times. What should I do?

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.

  • HT1338 I bought a used Ipod. It wont let me up update it. saying it need the disk. how can I make it work for me?

    How can I update A used Ipod touch generation 5 without A disk? I have the latest apple program.

    Try:

    Including
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    Do you have:
    Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later

    Look at the version, just do not say latest.

  • I hace a comcast e-mail account and when I click a "contact us" link on a web site a pop-up asks me to choose an application but when I choose firefox nothing happens How can I make the links open my Comast e-mail?

    "Contact us" links on web sites open a box that says "This link needs to be opened with an application. Send to:" My only e-mail account is through my Comcast.net account but Comcast is not an option. When I choose Firefox, which is an option, a new blank window opens but I have no idea how to generate an outgoing e-mail message. This is very frustrating because I cannot seem to find any help with this issue and i seem to be precluded from e-mailing numerous organizations because of this. I do not want to create a new gmail or other type of e-mail account if I can help it. I already have enough accounts and passwords to try and keep a handle on.

    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Changing+the+e-mail+program+used+by+Firefox
    Comcast online email is considered '''web mail''' so you need to scroll down that support page to the web mail section.

  • How can I make Quicktime stop opening when I click a streaming media link?

    I was very happily using Windows Media Player 9 for streaming video in Firefox, and it was working fabulously, until I installed Flip4Mac, and now when I click on a link within a web page to open a standalone player for steaming video (please see "Click here to open standalone player" link below web cam window on www.tappedintoelephants.com) it opens Quicktime instead of Windows Media Player. I would like it to go back to using WMP for the standalone player when I click that link. I tried unchecking the "steaming media" box in Quicktime MIME settings, I've uninstalled Flip4Mac, and reinstalled WMP, but still, when I click that link, it opens Quicktime and crashes the browser. Could anyone please tell me how I can tell Firefox to once again use WMP instead of Quicktime for the standalone player? As I said, unchecking the streaming media checkbox in QT MIME settings had no effect. Thank you very much. I appreciate your help!

    I think what you should try is Settings>General>Accessibility>Vision>Speak Auto-text>Off.

  • How can embed fonts into a PDF? Additionally, how can I make so that the PDF then opens with the embedded font?

    I need to embed a standard font (such as Times New Roman) and make it so that the document opens with this font presented. I see information on embedding fonts, but nothing related to the second part of my question. Thanks.

    The second part is automatic. If you manage to embed a font (for example with Preflight in Acrobat Pro), then a PDF viewer should use that. In some cases a locally installed font of the SAME NAME might take preference, which is only a difficulty if a private edited font is used.
