A deski document from Infoview opens with XIR2 instead og 6.5.1

Hi all,
I have in an installation BO 6.5.1 and XI R2, when trying to edit a deski document from Infoview (6.5 version), somehow it is being opened with
the XIR2 version of Deski and it gives an error. How can I change it so it is opened with BusinessObjects 6.5?
The .rep are associated with the older version, I don't know if I have to take into account anything else.
Thanks

Juan,
It is because of Windows file association. Since XI was installed last, Windows associates .rep files to be opened with XI Reporter. Below is a topic that might help:

Not able to copying files/folders from one Document Library to another Document Library using Open with Browser functionality

Hi All,
We have SharePoint Production server 2013 where users are complaining that they are not able to copy or move files from one document library to another document library using “Open with Explorer” functionality.
We tried to activate publishing features on production server but it did not work. We users reported following errors:
Copying files from one document library to another document library:
Tried to map the document libraries and still not get the error to copy files:
In our UAT environment we are able to copy and move folders from using “Open with Explorer” though.
We have tried to simulate in the UAT environment but could not reproduce the production environment.
Any pointers about this issue would be highly appertained.
Thanks in advance

Hi John and all,
One the newly created web applications that we created few days back and navigated to document library, clicked on “Open with Explorer”, we get this error.
We're having a problem opening this location in file explorer. Add this website to your trusted and try again.
We added to the trusted site in Internet Explorer for this web application, cleared the cache and open the site with same document library but still get the same above error.
However, another existing web application (In same the Farm) that we are troubleshooting at the moment, we are able click on “Open with Explorer”, login in credentials opens and we entered the details we are able to open the document
library and tried to follow these steps:
From Windows Explorer (using with Open with Explorer), tried to copy or move a files to
source document library.
From Windows Explorer moved this file to another destination document library and we got this error.
What we have to achieve is users should be able to copy files and folders using
Open with Explorer functionality. We don’t know why Open with Explorer
functionality not work working for our environment.
Are we doing something wrong?
We have referred to following websites.
we hope concepts of copying / Moving files are similar as SharePoint 2010. Our production environment is SharePoint 2013.

Would you know if there's a way to mimic Deski
document from BOXI server(CMS) to local machine, pass parameter, execute and
save in a mutiple report format then store in a local drive or network
drive? Most examples and tutorials in BO XI R2 I've seen are scheduling while drilling report is for web intelligence only and not desktop intelligence. Please let me know your ideas. I would really appreciate your help. Thanks.

Hi Ted,
Thanks for the reply.The file is not available in the server. Though, I checked CMS and I found an instance in history tab and the status is failed with error below.
Error Message:
A variable prevented the data provider Query 1 with BANRRD30 from being refreshed. (DMA0008).When I checked my codes, I found out that the object Im using is for web intelligence data provider. However, I cannot find any documentation and example for passing parameter values in desktop intelligence data provider. Any idea on this? You think this is not suported by Report Engine SDK?Thanks.

DeskI report from Infoview - doc.zabo_fc

Post Author: nagh
CA Forum: Administration
In BO XIR2, I tried to edit / create a DeskI report from Infoview on a PC, where no DeskI is installed. Then it prompted me to download a file doc.zabo_fc. I downloaded the file; but even then I could not create / edit a report. So is it correct that, even if we invoke Deski through Infoview (to create/edit a report), we should have a local installation of the DeskI ?? Please clarify.

Hi nagh,
Thats right. You need to have DeskI Client locally installed on your machine for the create/edit option from Infoview for deski reports. This is the difference from the earlier 6.5.
Hope this helps,
Rahul

Help. Need to remove one of the listed QuickTimes from the "open with" menu

When I bring up the 'Open with' menu on an audio file I have QuickTime Player (7.3.1) and just below that I have QuickTime Player (7.2.1). I would like to remove the 7.2.1 listing from this menu. There is on one version on my computer (7.3.1). The last update must have placed the newer listing in this menu and left the older listing. Is there a way to remove the older listing from the open with menu?

Did you ever do an archival and install of your OS? If so, you have what is called previous system fold on your main hard drive. This is where you can find the player to the version. If not I guess what happen to you is strange...mmm... And I guess it could happen.

Help. Need to remove item from the "open with" menu

Does anyone know how I can remove an item from the "open with" menu?

You could try removing the quicktime .pkg files from the receipts folder in the root library.
The system has to go somewhere to determine eligible applications it can use to open a file.
Each application would contain its base settings in its receipts file.
Once you delete the receipt you should delete the application and reinstall it.
The reinstall will write a new receipts file.
The receipts file is used by your system when it repairs disk permissions.
The system does not just add a setting.
For example if you take a .png file and click on it and look at what can open it you may get a long list.
If you choose "other" from the get info "open with" menu and have acrobat reader installed in applications, it will show as an application you can choose.
That application, however, is not in the drop down list.
If you choose acrobat reader and apply it to the file type, it will show as the default.
If you then choose another application in the list and apply, Acrobat Reader disappears from the list.
The system only shows files in the list that advertise to the system that they can read the file type.
You have a system which is populating the list with legitimate programs that are compatible with the advertised file type.
It is reading that advertisement for the quicktime application somewhere.
The configuration is written to each file individually, you can choose to have a single file associated with a particular application or have it apply to all files of that type.
Check in Spotlight for a copy of the application in another location.

Remove applications from the "open with" menu

How do you remove applications from the "open with" context menu? I seem to have one instance of a program for every time it was "updated." So my "open with" menu has about 8 instances of Adobe Acrobat, 3 or 4 of Word, etc. It's obnoxious and cumbersom. Any idea how to edit this context menu? Thanks.

hi joshua,
you can solve it in two ways:
1)open terminal and copy and paste:
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/\
Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister \
-kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
enter and wait the prompt
2) delete this files and restart
library/caches/com.apple.LaunchServices-xxxxx.csstore
(more than one files with the xxxx i mean number)
~/library/preferences/com.apple.launchservices.plist

How to get iMovie to open with gopro instead of iPhoto?

I plug in my gopro 4 to my iMac and Iphoto opens with some of the content from it. I want iMovie to open with it instead but I cannot get iMovie to recognize my gopro at all. Any suggestions? I have iMovie 09' and it is compatible with the gopro 4 silver. My OS 10.6.8 will not support the gopro studio or else I would just use it. Please help.

Yes, I think so. If you launch the Image Capture application, then connect your GoPro you should see a box at the bottom left of the Image capture window which allows you to set which application (or none) opens when your GoPro is connected. Try setting the application to iMovie. Details here:

I use a Pandigital Photolink one touch scanner. Then I upload the pics from the hd card to the computer. In order to get iphoto to recognize the images I have to first save each photo using 'save as' to my documents, then 'open with' iphoto. Is there a way to do a group 'save as' and then open the group in iphoto?
Scanning this way is much faster than using my printer but having to save each individually defeats the purpose.
Thanks, Gailfromlangley

MS Excel document as attachment to a PDF document does not open with a hot spot/link in the PDF

Hi, I have attached an excel file to a pdf document. I need to open this document in a new window by clicking an icon/hotspot in the pdf document to which it it attached.
I am using the Link Tool to create a hot spot around the icon in the pdf. In the next window I am using the Go to Page view option, opening the attachment to its first page and clicking the "set link" button.
For some reason, clicking the hotspot does not open the excel document as it does another pdf document.
Need help resolving this issue with attached documents.

Select a particular download file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Open With section choose the desired default application from the dropdown menu then click on the Change All button.
For .dmg files use DiskImageMounter (System/Library/CoreServices/ folder.)
For .zip files use Archiver - same folder as above - or download TheArchiver - MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

[BOXI 3.0] DeskI Documents in InfoVIew - no View Menu - PDF Mode

viewing DeskI reports in InfoView I can set my preferences for "default view format" to "Web" , "PDF" or "Desktop Intelligence format".
If I set it to "Web" then after viewing a DeskI document if I click on the View menu I only get options for "Page Mode" and "Draft Mode" I don't get the option for "PDF mode"
But if I log into InfoView as Administraor with FULL rights then I do get the option for "PDF Mode"
Which security right controls the option to have "PDF Mode" on the View menu ?

this is a bug, you need to give rights for crystal report, like #export the report data# and #Refresh# to allow Deski Reports to be exported
Apparently there is an Enhancement request id ADAPT01098470 with details of this Bug in
BOXI 3.0

How do I remove apps from the "open with" menu in Mountain Lion?

If I right-click a document in Finder, I get a contextual menu offering all of the potential applications with which I might open that document. My problem is that some of those applications are no longer operational and I want them to be removed from the menu. How can I do that?

I'm not sure how the order is determined. Clearly, the first level sort is ascending by application name these days (since Lion, I think), but it seems to be random after that. It's not by version, though that would be convenient.
Also, I notice that on my relatively clean Mountain Lion system I sometimes get duplicate entries in the "open with" list that cannot be explained by duplicate copies of the application. On a text file, I get two each of Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Equation Editor, Evernote, and Xcode; none of these is duplicated on this system. I get only one entry each for the Notepad stub application, a few Adobe apps, TextWrangler, Safari, Numbers, Pages, and several others.
Where there are duplicated entries, it doesn't seem to matter which one I select; I get the same instance of the program no matter which I select. I take this to mean that one is an alias for the other.
That's my mystery and not necessarily yours. Are your "unhelpful but working stub applications" also duplicates?
