ACTION FILES - need OS X version
Does anyone remember 'action files' for os9?
It was a handy plug-in that enabled you to click on the folder you wanted to navigate to in save/open dialogue boxes
Is there anything similar for OS X?
Thanks
I'm not sure what you want... Do you mean you can see a folder in the Finder and you want to get there in a Save dialogue? If that's it, just drag the folder and drop it into the dialogue window. If the folder is open, you can use the proxy icon (the little folder icon in the title bar).

Cannot preview file- need latest adobe version
Hello:
Whenever I try to view a file that I download or share on acrobat.com. This message come up:
After I click "preview", the another message appears telling me that I need to download the latest version of adobe reader to view the file. The latest version is 9.3 and I have done that already so I do not know why it is not showing me the file as it should. Can anyone help with this?
ThnaksHello there,
Thank you for posting to the forum. The problem of misrecognition has appeared before, and we believe that it stems from incorrect data coming from the document's place of origin - namely, whatever program was used to create the PDF. Unfortunately, there isn't anything that we can do at Acrobat.com to resolve the issue; I will, however, be sure to alert the Acrobat team to see if they know anything about it.
As for previewing the file, there is no reason that you should need Reader to view the file in Acrobat.com - although it's possible that you need to update Reader in order to view a file from your computer. Would you mind giving me a little more information about what you're seeing when you try to view the file? The more detailed account you can give, the easier it will be to figure out what's going on.
Thank you very much for your patience.
Kind regards,

Tried to open a file I created in Numbers a while ago, which I modified on 11/4/13, and got a message that I needed a newer version of Numbers. When I went to the Mac App Store it shows that the new version is already installed and there doesn't seem to be a way to reinstall it. When I checked "About Numbers" on my MacBook it shows "Numbers '09 version 2.3". Any suggestions as to how I can get the new version installed?
Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.

I am stumped - I am trying to open a recent Pages file (created with a newer software that I thought was correctly installed recently) but error message says that I need a "newer version" of Pages. My software updates show that there are no updates available. Pages 09 version 4.3 shows as my current version.

I cannot re-open files that have been saved in Numbers version09 - it states "You need a newer version of numbers to open this document". This is the latest version & also the one I have created/saved???
Jules,
You may delete Numbers 08 if you wish, but some folks like keeping it around. Close all your Numbers docs and Quit the Numbers app, and the other Numbers app if necessary.Then click the Numbers icon on your doc. Then select Numbers > About Numbers, and in the window that pops up, see which version it is. If the Dock icon started Numbers 08, you can cure that by dragging that icon off the Dock and letting it go in a puff of virtual smoke.
Now, to put the Numbers 09 icon on the Dock, double-click one of those known Numbers 09 documents so that Numbers 09 starts up. Verify by checkig Numbers > about Numbers.
Now click and hold the Numbers Dock icon and select the Option for Keep in Dock.

Trouble opening a just created Pages file.....error message says I need a newer version of Pages......Apple Store says I have version 5.0.......opening an older Pages file it says I have version 4.3.......can not find any way to try another upgrade to 5.0........please help......
ThanksPersonally, I would not recommend deleting/removing the iWorks 09 folder for several reasons: one is that the new versions have had several functionalities removed and until you decide that you can work with the new one and do not miss any features the older version had, I would leave the old one in place. Personally, I will not be using the new versions.
The second reason is that you can accomplish what you want using a different approach: simply open a Get Info window of your document and choose which version of Pages you want this to open in - you can also stipulate that all docs like this are opened with whichever particular version.
FWIW: Once you have edited an old document in the new Pages version, you can no longer open it in the older version. However, you can still export it to the old version. -
