Why cannot I not open file with .wmv extensions?

I am not able to open file attachments that have a .wmv extension - I can open power point presentations. Am I missing an app or does Apple simply not recognize these as valid files? It seems to download, but then does not ever open.

Nevermind, got it, thanks!

    Why can I not open files saved on a server?

    I think I figured it out.  I set the compatibility mode to Windows Server 2008 (which is the OS on the server we are using) and it opened just fine.  Whoop Whoop.  Thanks for your help.

  • Adobe Reader XI does not open files with a command line "path" argument.

    Adobe Reader XI does not open files with a command line "path" argument. Version X and lower all worked fine. I have deleted and reinstalled the program with no success. Is this a bug?

    What is the make of the printer and is it using PCL or PS driver.?
    Do you have Acrobat installed on this machine as well?

  • Opening files with .asp extension

    Since few weeks I am not able to open files with .asp extension.
    There was no problem over a long time, maybe the issue started with the actualization of OS X, moving to OS X 10.6.5 or with the actualization of Safari, moving to 5.0.3.
    Please let me know what I can do to re-open .asp files.
    Thanks

    Hallo Everybody, I have a similar issue.
    I run a Macbook Pro, and I operate into an internet based ERP system (managed by microsoft machines)
    In this system, which completely works through internet, I can create orders, invoices, then I tap "create invoice" and get a pdf file.
    Till few weeks ago it worked smoothly: I tapped "create invoice", the system worked and few seconds later adobe reader opened showing me the file from a .asp document. Now it doesn't work anymore.
    If I tap "create invoice", adobe reader doesn't do anything, but the .asp file is created into the "download" folder with the name "print preview", so I have to go into that folder and manually open the file.
    This leads in a waste of time and some confusion if I issue many documents at a time, which I find all mixes up with names "print preview 1" - 2 - 3...
    Does anybody have a clue on how I can open the .asp files into adobe reader automatically as they are created?
    Thank you in advance

  • Xdg-open is opening files with no extension in wine notepad

    xdg-open is opening files with no extension in wine notepad. This is really annoying. How can I change it?

    Click on "Browse" button at the "Open With" dialog and navigate to the location, where acrord32.exe is located. Preferebly, it should be this location "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" unless you have installed at some customized location.  I'm assuming you have installed Reader 9. Once you add Adobe Reader in the open with list, it would continue to appear next time onwards.

  • Convert files with WMV extension to QuickTime

    Is there a ways to convert video files with wmv extension to quicktime on the ipohne it self, so the video can be played on the iphone?

    No. There are apps that will convert unprotected WMV files on a computer to something that the iPhone can play. Google is your friend to find video conversion software.

  • Opening files with no extension

    Adobe Reader is installed on 2 different PCs running Windows XP, PC1 and PC2.
    Both PCs need to open .pdf files with no extension, because an application renames files, let's say "file1pdf", as "file1", without altering the contents.
    On PC1 if I try to open a file, let's say "file1", I see a list of available applications including "Adobe Reader".
    On PC2 if I try to open the same file I don't see "Adobe Reader" in the list of available applications.
    Adobe reader is installed on both PCs.
    How can I add "Adobe Reader" to the list of available applications to open files with no extension on PC2?
    Regards
    Marius

  • Why can I not open file?

    While always "error opening file-file cannot be found." When buying tickets for shows that are deliverred through internet, often the file cannot be found or there's error opening file? Seems to me that Adobe shoold have solved that problem by now?

    Files downloaded from the internet are frequently located in a temp folder. If you then try to open the file in Reader it may not be there because the temporary file may now be gone. You need to ensure the pdf you are trying to view is saved in some more permanent location.

  • Why can't I open files with Reader X??

    I received an auto update request about one week ago from ADOBE.  I had 9.4 (I think) at the time and the request took to me to Reader X 10.1.1.
    Since then, I cannot seem to open PDF files stored in my document library, nor attach any files to emails. When I click one.....nothing happens.  They files are all solid white rather than showing the red/white coloration of Adobe - like they used to before the "upgade". The only way I can open a PDF is to launch the Reader X software and click "open files" from there.  Obviously, this doesn't help me since I need to email PDFs to clients, and printing 'n faxing isn't an option.
    Here's what I've done before so as to avoid repetitive suggestions:
    1.  Uninstalled and reinstalled (more than 1/2 dozen time).  I restarted the PC in between both fuctions. Didn't work.
    2.  Tried to fall back to 9.4 after uninstalling.  Didn't work.
    3,  System restore.  Done for (3) different dates proceeeding the update to 10.1.  Didn't work.
    SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!
    Thanks in advance.....

    You don't need Adobe Reader to email PDFs to clients.

  • [SOLVED] Sudo Ranger does not open files with VIM

    I am using ranger as my file manager. And sometimes I run it with sudo. But then it want's to open all with nano. Even tough the environment variables (EDITOR & VISUAL) are set to vim.
    Maybe it hast something to do with /bin/sh - but when that is the case, how do I change the default behaviour of /bin/sh?

    Sure you can. As the sudoers man page describes, the env_reset option is on by default. You could use the env_keep options. Or use the -E flag for sudo. Or....

  • Why can't I open files with double click, etc?

    Hello, all,
    I have been having problems with my MacBook (Aluminum late 2008, I think, OS 10.5). It runs slowly; files on the desktop and in my "Macintosh HD" often won't open with double-click but have to be opened with File-->Open; there are Word Work Files that won't go away; the trackpad is often stiff and not very responsive; clicking on the mouse is very stiff, despite very easy settings. In short, a lot of things are sluggish. Sometimes, also, I get the spinning beach ball, but not all the time.
    I have run disk permissons repair from Disk Utility many times (both from the desktop and from the MacBook install disk); I have replaced the directory with Disk Warrior at least twice; I have verified that the disk is OK; I have zapped the PRAM; and done other things of that kind.
    I took the MacBook to an Apple Store yesterday. It had been unplugged and much to my surprise, most everything seemed to be working all right. When I opened it today, however, I found everything as it was before I took it to Apple. Including the Word Work files, which I thought were gone.
    If I recall correctly, this started when I was working on a long editing project in Word, but I don't know whether that has anything to do with what has happened. I've done similarly long projects before, and this never happened.
    I could try trashing the Word Work files (there seem also to be quite a lot of folders with "recovered" files), but I don't want to do that unless I can be assured that nothing bad will come from doing that.
    I know this seems quite comprehensive, and may involve several issues, but I'm really unhappy about this and would love to think there is something more I can do, apart from returning to the Apple Store. Besides everything else, how can I khow that I won't find, again, that the MacBook will work fine there but goes back to its troubled state when I return?
    Clues, anyone?
    Thanks,
    jenny

    Hi, Mike,
    I have 211.59 left out of total HD space of 232.57.Space should not be a problem. I'll try using Activity  Monitor today. I have 2 GB of memory. But since this is the first time I[ve had this problem, I don't see how it could be a problem with memory, do you?
    I finished the project more than a week ago. After I shut down the computer, it temporarily returned to normal but subsewuently started acting odd again, although I've done nothing but email since I turned it on again.
    I am going to try getting rid of the Word Work files and see whether that helps. I am wondering whether the book I was working on had something wrong with it (it was written in NeoOffice but opened in Word), or my copy of Word has gotten corrupted. Although I haven't used Word since I finished with the book.
    Sorry this font is so tiny, but although I was able to choose my font in my original message, there doesnt' seem to be a place to do that here. At least, I don't see it.
    I'll get back to you on the Activity Monitor. Thanks.

  • Open file with aspx extension

    Is there a program for Mac OSX that can open this MSFT file type

    Where are you seeing this type file?
    I see them when trying to save one of my bank statements from online backing. When the save window comes up select the ASPX extension and change it to .PDF, another window will  pop up asking something like the extension is aspx with a button highlighted to use .PDF. It will then open in Preview or another PDF read you have installed.
    You can also change the extension after it is downloaded/Saved to .PDF and it will open in a PDF reader.
