Applications Hang when selecting / attaching a file using Spotlight

Hi,
Having a problem since upgrading to Snow Leopard with applications 'hanging' when trying to attach a file using Spotlight. I can repeatedly cause the failure in Mail and Safari - and probably others as well - but these two applications I use most often and need to attach files to most often.
When I select "Attach a file", and use Spotlight to find the file to attach, the file dialog box closes and the attachment is apparently made - seconds later the spinning wheel appears and the dock tells me "Application Not Responding."
Any ideas as to how / why this is happening? Help make it stop!
Thank you,
Gordon.

OK Search box
Mine is OK so something is screwy..
In your Finder Prefs > Advanced > When performing a search drop down. Search this Mac seems to be default and the one I have set. Have you got it set to search the current folder or use the previous search instead?
I'd then pull out the com.apple.finder.plist from your user Library > Preferences to the desktop and let finder make a new one. If all is OK trash the old one.
Relaunch Finder by holding down the option key while right clicking Finder icon in the dock. Relaunch will be on the bottom of the context menu.

Wow, just found the answer - YzGy posted this link <http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7449164&#7449164> and I did as instructed and I'm back up and running. For some reason, this recurring event was on my calendar 12,300 times.

Application hangs when using ProcessStartInfo and Process.WaitForExit.

I've looked on different threads about this, but all of them uses the Process.RedirectStandardOutput = True, which I don't.
I'm trying to open a process (console application, not made by me) to make it compile a special .acs file to a .o file. The structure is simple, the only argument is the file you want to compile.
But on certain files my application hangs when trying to open the process. Here's my code:
Dim p As New Process
Dim ps As New ProcessStartInfo
ps.Arguments = SavePath 'Path example: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Zandronum\File.acs"
ps.FileName = Path.Combine(System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory(), "Script Compilers\Zandronum\acc.exe")
ps.CreateNoWindow = False
ps.ErrorDialog = False
ps.UseShellExecute = True
ps.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
ps.WorkingDirectory = Path.GetDirectoryName(SavePath)
Dim ErrorCaptured As Boolean = False
Try
p = Process.Start(ps)
Catch ex As Exception
ErrorCaptured = True
End Try
If ErrorCaptured = False Then
p.WaitForExit()
End If
If ErrorCaptured = True Then
Exit Sub
End If
Thanks!
//Visual Vincent
EDIT:
For starting the process I use pretty much the same code that another guy made in C#. And his code is working perfectly...
// Setup process info
processinfo = new ProcessStartInfo();
processinfo.Arguments = args;
processinfo.FileName = Path.Combine(this.tempdir.FullName, info.ProgramFile);
processinfo.CreateNoWindow = false;
processinfo.ErrorDialog = false;
processinfo.UseShellExecute = true;
processinfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
processinfo.WorkingDirectory = this.workingdir;
try
process = Process.Start(processinfo);
catch(Exception e)
// Unable to start the compiler
General.ShowErrorMessage("Unable to start the compiler (" + info.Name + "). " + e.GetType().Name + ": " + e.Message, MessageBoxButtons.OK);
return false;
// Wait for compiler to complete
process.WaitForExit();
I hope your day has been better than yesterday, but that it's worse than tomorrow...
Please mark as answer if I solved your problem. :)

Hi,
Have you compared the FileNames and Arguments of ones that work and ones that don`t? Is there any difference in them such as the ones that work do not contain blank spaces in the FileName or arguments and the ones that do work don`t contain blank spaces
in them? If you find that to be the problem then you need to add Quotes to the beginning and end of the FileName or Arguments.
My first guess is the Arguments needs the Quotes like this because, i see blank spaces in your example of the Arguments.
ps.Arguments = Chr(34) & SavePath & Chr(34)
If you say it can`t be done then i`ll try it
This actually made it. I had forgotten that blank spaces makes it a new argument, silly me. I don't use process arguments that often. ;)
Thanks alot!

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

I am trying to find out how to assign files with particular extensions to the appropriate software. At the moment when I create a file using Word it is apparently given the extension .docx but Word doesn't recognise its own files. How do I allocate the extension .docx to Word? There used to be a way of doing it, I think under "Preferences" but I can't seem to find it.

Still in the same location:

Ipod resets when selecting certain mp3 files

my ipod video 5th generation resets when selecting certain mp3 files ???? As well as certain video podcasts . Whats the deal anyone ?

Is Apple working on a "real" fix for this bug or do we have to live with limited use of our iPod resources?
No one on here really knows (the creators of the programs and software do not visit the Discussions), but Apple could possibly provide a fix in the future. It may not be very "high on their list" of iPod feedback requests of new features, and bug fixes, though, since this isn't an incredibly common problem.
If you'd like to add the the voices and tell Apple about this issue, let them know here on their feedback form: iPod Feedback

When I attach a file in my email it is embedded. How do I just attach the file. Windows users would like to be attached not embedded how do I that.

When I attach a file in my email it is embedded. How do I just attach the file. Windows users would like to be attached not embedded how do I that.

I suspect that your Windows pals are using an e-mail program from the Stone Age.
In the last 10 years or so most people prefer to read attachments “in-line”. This allows text and images to be intermixed allowing an easier method of explaining things.
When I am dealing with a old-fashioned, obsolete Windows user that is using an older e-mail program I simply put all the attachments at the very end of the e-mail. This will make it appear more normal to them.
Not all Windows programs work in this primitive fashion. But as Mac users, we have become more accustomed to the modern methods of viewing attachments in-line.

I suspect that the database environment believes that another process has the database open for writing. This cannot be the case, however, as all applications that access the database do so via an interface library I wrote that registers a termination function via the atexit() system-call to ensure that both the DB and DB_ENV handles are properly closed -- and all previously-executed applications terminated normally.
The interface library opens the database like this (apparently, this forum doesn't support indentation, sorry):
int status;
Backend* backend = (Backend*)malloc(sizeof(Backend));
if (NULL == backend) {
else {
DB_ENV* env;
if (status = db_env_create(&env, 0)) {
else {
if (status = env->open(env, path,
DB_CREATE | DB_INIT_CDB | DB_INIT_MPOOL, 0)) {
else {
DB* db;
if (status = db_create(&db, env, 0)) {
else {
if (status = db->open(db, NULL, DB_FILENAME, NULL,
DB_BTREE, forWriting ? DB_CREATE : DB_RDONLY, 0)) {
else {
backend->db = db;
} /* "db" opened */
if (status)
db->close(db, 0);
} /* "db" allocated */
if (status) {
env->close(env, 0);
env = NULL;
} /* "env" opened */
if (status && NULL != env)
env->close(env, 0);
} /* "env" allocated */
if (status)
free(backend);
} /* "backend" allocated */
This code encounters no errors.
The interface library also registers the following code to be executed when any process that uses the interface library exits:
if (NULL != backend) {
DB* db = backend->db;
DB_ENV* env = db->get_env(db);
if (db->close(db, 0)) {
else {
if (env->close(env, 0)) {
else {
/* database properly closed */
As I indicated, all previously-executed processes that use the interface library terminated normally.
I'm using version 4.8.24.NC of Berkeley DB on the following platform:
$ uname -a
Linux gilda.unidata.ucar.edu 2.6.27.41-170.2.117.fc10.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Dec 10 10:36:29 EST 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Any ideas?

Bogdan,
That can't be it. I'm using a structured programming style in which the successful initialization of a cursor is ultimately followed by a closing of the cursor. There's only one place where the code does this and it's obvious that the cursor gets released.
I've also read the CDB section.

What kind of advertisement? In Adobe Reader? Can you post a screenshot of that: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933
Regarding the crash, can you try disabling Protected Mode through the registry: download, unzip, then run the registry script https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/49eeb48b-07c5-4502-984c-8a25259914fa

File menu "Attach Files..." then Tick off "Windows-friendly Attachment".

When I attach a file to outgoing mail it shows up in the body of the e-mail. How can i make it only show up at the end or elsewhere?

I take a .NEF file and a .JPG file with every click. When I transfer the files using a flash drive to another computer I never get all of the files to transfer. I get some of the .NEF and some of the .JPGs but not all

If you're exporting a project then you'll only get the images in that project. Also if any of the masters are referenced then you won't get those masters unless you check Consolidate masters into exported library
It might be best if you started from the beginning and explained what it is your are trying to do and how you're going about doing it. Also a description of you're hardware/software setup would be helpful.

Most applications hang when performing File | Open

Hello,
Excel 2013, Word 2013, Notepad+ and other applications all hang when File | Open is selected. I read a post stating that it could be related to printers.
When I try to go to Control Panel | Devices and Printers, nothing loads so I would guess there is something wrong with printers.
Would anyone have a suggestion on how to debug printer problems on Windows 8.1?
Thank you, Bill

Hi,
Could you please have a share with the post which stating the issue is related with printers?
To narrow down the issue, please try to boot into clean boot and see if the open/save dialog would work:
How to perform a clean boot in Windows
For the Devices and Printers not load, could you please give us a screenshot? Besides, please also check into Event Viewer and see if there are any errors logged. Use Windows Search to search Event Viewer, then select
View Event Logs
Reference: What information appears in event logs? (Event Viewer) ;
For Windows 8.1 hangs, please take a try with a refresh or reset, then check the results.
How to refresh, reset, or restore your PC
For the printers troubleshooting, we may take a look at the following article first:

Motion 5 Hangs (beach ball) when selecting a movie file in File Browser

Using the file browser in Motion 5, select a movie file (any type of movie file) Motion hangs. Even occurs when trying to select a folder that contains any movie files. After selecting a movie in about 30 seconds the clip details will appear at the top of the file browser, but the video is never displayed in the small preview window. No problems when selecting any pictures or audio files. Also, can drag any of these same movie clips with the Finder into Motion and they play with no issue. Any ideas?

Primarily have HD footage that uses the H.264 codec and SD footage that is DV NTSC. Also, have clips I have created with After Effects and rendered out as mov files using the Animation Codec, all have the same problem.
Further, did not have this issue until after migrating to Lion, all was good with Snow Leopard. But, I can't say that the problem started immediately after the migration. Did not use Motion 5 until about 2 days after I did the migration.
This is on a Macbook Pro 17in, early 2011, 8GB memory, AMD Radeon HD6750M

I recently undated to Firefox 8. When I try to attach a file using yahoo mail I get a message that file cannot be sent. I don't have a problem on Explorer

When I use firefox I cannot attach a file to my outgoing yahoo e-mail. I do not have this problem when I use Explorer. This seems to have started when I updated to Firefox 8.0

Are you trying to open the online document, or are you downloading it to your local disk first. What is the exact message you get?
