How do I change the default app for opening a file;

If I right click on a file in finder, it tells me what the default app for opening the file is. it also gives me a short list of other apps.
I would like to change the defaults for several file types, and also delete one app from the short list and add a different one.
How do I do this?
thanks

You could try this:
- right-click (tap with 2 fingers on the apple trackpad) on a file you want to open in openoffice
- move the cursor over "open with". You should see the default app, then some suggestions, then app store, then at the end, "other...". Select "other..."
- find openoffice in your applications folder and select it (if it is dimmed, change "enable: " from "recommended applications" to "all applications", then you can select "openoffice")
- check "always open with"
- then, click "open". The file will open in openoffice and from now on, openoffice will be the default application to open the type of file you just opened. You should also see the icon of all files of the same type change to the openoffice file icon.
This is supposed to work, but that's not always the case, especially when the default app happens to be an Apple app. If you don't want to use that Apple app, delete it (or move it elsewhere if you want a backup). That can help.
Good luck!

Is pages the best app for creating wedding programs? or would you recommend something else?, is pages the best app for creating wedding programs? or would you recommend something else?

Is pages the best app for creating wedding programs, or would you reccomend something free or cheaper?

As the question is asked three times, I guess that you wish to marry three times.
From my point of view, the best app to do this or that is the one with which we are comfortable.

Plug-in or app for creating slo-mo?

Last year I came across a bunch of YouTube clips demonstrating a plug-in or app for creating slow motion from regularly shot material - 24-30 fps. The plug-in or app was able to someone how extrapolate all the missing frames to get quite a spectacular slo-mo effect. I've lost the URL I thought I had so carefully saved.
I'm receiving a whole bunch of footage I have to edit into a film. The original shooting is erratic, sometimes good, sometimes quite unprofessional. I need to be able to manipulate the speed of the shots, slow them down or speed them up. The plug-in or app I remember would have been perfect.
Does this ring a bell for anyone? Any suggestions would be most appreciated...
Thank you,
Ben

Thank you guys, most helpful.
Did I say 'spectacular'? I'd settle for modestly elegant, or even competent. You are absolutely right David B. I'm not looking to improve things like really bad exposure, noise, etc. But a pan that's two fast for the tempo of a sequence? ... a little slowing, a bit of 'smoothcam' and suddenly the shot looks 'professional' instead of amateur. I just did a couple of tests using only the speed control in the motion tab of FCP and was pleasantly surprised. Is the 'speed' control in the motion tab any different than the 'Change Speed' function (Command J)?
This is a feature film and they plan on a theatrical release. So something like Twixtor might be the answer for the best quality we can generate, given the limitations of the original media. But...
David H, if the only thing I'm really needing is very clean slow-mo (given the limitations of the original media), but not super super slow-mo, would the Optical Flow in Motion give me more-or-less the same quality as Twixtor? That would be pleasant.
All ears,
Ben

Does Adobe provide a free API for creating PDF files

Does Adobe provide a free API (for Windows) for creating PDF files?   We are currently using
a basic, internally developed API for creating PDF files, but would like some additional
capabilities ... in particular the ability to add a watermark that appears when printing
but not when viewing PDF files on-line.
If this is not the right forum for this question, please let me know what forum would be
appropriate.
Thanks,
Mark

OK, with a little bit of searching on Adobe's web site, I found the answer to my question.   Yes, Adobe does offer
an API for creating/manipulating/reading PDF files: it's called the Adobe PDF Library SDK and it has to be
licensed. Version 9 is the latest.   The cost is decided on a case-by-case basis.    Here is the link:

Is there an app for creating a folder structure on the iPhone out there?

I'm looking for an application to create folders (possibly password-protect them) on the iPhone, so I can add documents, PDFs, video clips etc to the phone and create subdivide them further in folders. There doesn't seem to be anything that does the right job in the app store. Is it not possible? Any feedback to help me understand would be appreciated.

It is not possible. You cannot create the folder structure you're speaking of and you cannot save files to your iPhone, even if you had folders.
There are no apps for folders or app organization. There are apps that allow you to access files from your desktop or the cloud from your iPhone. I use box.net. Dropbox and AirShare are others.

How do I change or remove default apps for a given file extension (in Terminal?) without munging date modified on all my old files?

When a program is installed, it seems to be able to do it (sometimes inappropriately if it hijacks file associations without asking) so why can't I? This is for 10.4.
Specifically:
1. Since installing an HP wireless printer, HP not only tries to install a bunch of sales-ware on your machine that you have to carefully opt out of (annoying, but not a problem if forewarned), it changes the default file association for a number of basic file types, listing all sort of existing files as HP printer files. Using Get Info to change the default file type association globally causes it to mark ALL the files of that type as newly updated, munging the file metdata (which HP did NOT do). Most of the stuff on our computer is sorted by last modified, so if there is a way to fix this in Terminal (to simply fix or remove the HP default tag) without changing the date the file was modified, it would help. Note that uninstalling the program that created the default would do this, but I obviously can't do that (and reinstalling HP would have the same effect). So there has to be another way, right?
2. Since updating iTunes to v.9 a while back, every mp3 is marked as an iTunes file even though iTunes has NO multiple library capability without a wonky reboot using the option key, meaning that if I click on an mp3 downloaded since last update of iTunes, it opens automatically in iTunes and gets added to the SOLE itunes library without asking. (There is no way to toggle between multiple libraries or archive media in separate folders; iPhoto has a similar problem. (Has this been fixed in the latest version of iTunes?) In comparison, Quicktime starts up immediately and does not attempt to create a playlist just because you opened a file and listened to it.
(The iTunes playlists are simply subfolders of the single main library -- and you can't create a new library without doing a wonky procedure by clicking option during startup and telling iTunes to forget where its library is located (includin everything in it) and look up an entirely separate one by hand. So any mp3 file downloaded recently is uploaded to iTunes if you click on it. This wouldn't be problem if it didn't automatically add it to the sole iTunes library just because you clicked on it.)
Besides, all my old mp3s are Quicktime files and they are all archived by date modified. To its credit, ITunes, unlike HP, does NOT hijack older files already on disk and remark them as iTunes files. It only marks newly downloaded files as such. But if I try and change file association for FUTURE mp3 files using Get Info > "use this program for all files of this type", it munges the file metadata (date modified) for all existing files!
Note that in HP case, it apparently does it at the file exchange preference level (or whatever it's called) since the OS then recognizes every file of those types as an HP file. In the iTunes case, it only does it if you download a new media file or open an existing file in iTunes, but again without changing the date it was last edited.
Since these programs are able to change the default file association without changing the date the file was last edited, it should be reversible in Terminal, correct? Why does it change "date modified" when you try and correct metadata using Get Info (or sometimes just by clicking an enclosing folder?) Date modified should be a record of when a file itself was edited, not when it was renamed, or other metadata. Otherwise stuff can't be sorted correctly.

The unix commands you need are:
GetFileInfo
SetFileInfo
and maybe find
for cryptic details use the man command
Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal
man SetFileInfo
You may use the SetFileInfo command to set the file type & the program which will open the file.

Need inputs for creating Jar file

Hi All,
I am doing the scenario as file to mail. so here i am using java mappings for sending the file in mail attachment.
as i can see in my system there are already one imported archive exists with name called "java_mappings".
in that i can find 10 to 12 mapings which are used for different interface.
i have tried to export the imported archive to my local system and created the project with same in NWDS.
but here i can not find jar file.
can anyone suggest how can i get jar file for already exist the imported archive.
second option is if i want to create new mappings then how can i get the Jar file.
thanks,
Bhaskar

Hi Bhaskar,
Jar file is an archive which consists of all class files needed by Java mapping. If you have a folder named Java_mapping and you guess that it is being used in different interfaces, then it should have the class files in it... may be the source code is missing...
I will suggest you to export it into your local machine and extract using winzip.. then you might see some file with .class extesnion. Try a tool like frontendplus which will make java code from java class file to get there code..
Now if you are trying to make one for your requirement i would suggest to read the stefan grube blog..
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs;jsessionid=%28J2EE3414700%29ID1981012450DB01072979760660502867End?blog=/pub/wlg/4774
Also note that the java mapping is just a jar file which has:
1. the com.sap.xpi.ib.mapping.lib.jar (PI7.1) or aii_map_api.jar (PI7.0 or XI3.0) file
2. You java code class file.

App for accessing remote files on a mac that you can play in another app

Hey all,
Anyone know of an app that will allow me to access files stored on a mac connected to the same wifi that I can play the file through another app in the iPhone without the file being transferred to the phone?
For example, I want to be able to access a m4v stored on my mac over wifi, within the iPhone, to be played with a video player that I can send to a TV with the composite cable.
I found NetPortal, which works quite well, but you need to transfer the file to your iphone and even then, it wont open with many apps. I tried transferring a m4v file to my phone and it only gave me goodreader as an app to open the file with. I could simply transfer the file I want to access using my USB cable to my iPhone much faster.
Simply, I want to be able to stream movies from my Mac, through my iPhone to a TV and I am finding it hard to find Apps that allow such a thing.
Any suggestions?

I already have that setup at home. I want to be able to use this when I am on the road.
I already use StreamToMe and Airvideo, but sometimes the quality is quite bad, which is mainly cause by my low upload speed. So I am looking for higher quality alternatives. I carry around a macbook air a lot so I figured I could store lots of movies for on the road to be played on other's tvs when were taking it easy.
I am always so amused by responses on this forum. The solution is always to buy something.

App for editing config files (like arch assistant but gtk)

as the title says i need an app for editing the config files in arch like arch assistant but i dont like the qt3 interface

Alternative app might possibly be arxin http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=15710 Don't know if it's as good as archassistant, I don't use either.
I can't speak from experience but some have had success with making qt applications look like gtk with qgtkstyle http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=16964

Droid App for Opening Tif Files

Does anyone know whether there is an app that will open Tif files? I am not looking for something that requires changing file types or manipulation of a file. I am looking for an app that will open a Tif without a lot of fuss. I have searched high and low for an app that will open a tif file. I have tried many apps claiming to open a tif, but have yet found anything that works. I can't believe that there isn't somoene that has come out with an app for this yet.

Try this app (TIFF and FAX viewer)
from http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/tiff%20viewer
Also here is a post that suggest a few apps but it seems that there havent been a report of any that works the way you ask but maybe one of these options may help... http://forum.androidcentral.com/android-applications/5096-tiff-viewer.html

App for animated .gif files?

I've searched till I'm blue in the face and before it turns red, is there and APP that can upload moving .gif files/pics from your Mac to a folder in the iPhone 3G(S)? When you sync a moving pic or file form iTunes to your iPhone in one of its photo/picture folders, of course the .gif doesn't move but is still. Is there an APP that will view these moving .gif's which allows them to move as they were intended or created?

She used the Link Tool, specfied 'Image URL' as the Source File Format and the url of the animated GIF in the Source Filename. Hope that helps.
Makes sense but the form is not for the web.
I have looked at doing it with timers and switching canvases, but that is just too much
for sloppy animation. It's just not tight enough.
Thanks,
Sean

Best iPad apps for creating and sharing word and spreadsheet documents? X-post from Using iPad

I am about to take a work trip away for a few weeks and will need to create word and spreadsheet documents and share them with my colleagues back in the office. Does anyone have any tips on the best apps to do this? I'm concerned that the iWork apps might be problematic with the .pages and .numbers native formats, given that my colleagues work on ms office in a windows environment. Also, the google docs mobile experience seems to be pretty clunky, so I'm hoping someon out there has the perfect solution! Thanks in anticipation.
(X-post from Using iPad, but thought I might get some useful responses here.)

There is no perfect solution, especially for those who need to create more complex documents (tables, etc.) and spreadsheets. If your files are simple Quickoffice will do the job; you can set up a shared dropbox for those at the home base to access and interact with it directly through the app. For heavy duty lifting you may want to consider accessing your work desktop remotely using Splashtop, Logmein, gotomypc app, etc...

App for creating complex and data-enclosed forms

Hello guys,
This may be a wrong place to ask this but hey i don't know where to go, so here goes:
I'm looking for an app (OSX) with which i can create quite complex forms, and with that i mean the following example:
Like in Acrobat Reader Pro you can create forms, you can leave some text that is considered basic text and non-changeable and some fields in which users can fill up their own data. Better yet i'm looking to allow the user to only fill in the particular fields with only a few options.
For example: Let's say i want to create a mailing form in which the 'TO' field can only be filled up by a pop-up of selectable choices. I've seen this in some PDFs but i'm not sure Acrobat can do that. A friend of mine recommended SQL but that's a pain to install in OSX. So back to the example, when the user selects the TO field to fill up the destination of the letter, i would like to allow him to only fill up let's say one of 10 destinations (with complete address). So the 10 options pop-up in a menu from the field and he selects the destination and then the app does the rest by filling the street name, number etc...
How can i do that? In what program?
Thank you!
Andrei Dica from Bucharest Romania (pround Apple user )

Ok here is what i want to do:
I want to simplify and optimize the work in my office. Most of the times we have to create reports or letters which share a common body text. That body text should remain unchanged but there are fields that i want to create to allow all the employees to fill up them depending on their needs. BUT not just fill up by typing because that would be the same as if it would have opened the document (.doc or .pages) delete and type what they want.
I want to create fields but with options poping out of them when the user clicks on it. For example: let's say an employee wants to do a report about a company, and he already has the data in other documents about the company name, identification codes, address etc...Usually you work with multiple opened documents and copy/paste the required contents from one document to another. But i figured there has to be an easier way if a system can be implemented when the user can work on directly made templates for each task and type only the fields that need to be changed. I vision the process as a user completes some fields in a browser. When you type in the address bar of your browser "you" it automatically pops out a list of possible sites from which i can mention youtube.com and others. Now i understand that there has to be created a database first so that my employees and colleagues can fill 'from' but i'm willing to do that if on the long term it speeds up the work flow.
Another example is body text that need to be changed only by two values (words) much like numeric values 1 and 0. For example yes or no. Click on the field, pops up yes or no option. Click on the desired option and you're done. Print it, email it and job well done.
Is this a bit more clear about what i'm trying to achieve?
