Can't find Plist editor

Where do I find the plist editor?
Thanks

I installed the Xcode stuff. I still can't find the plist editor. When I double click on a plist file it opens in TextEdit. If I say open with other, I don't find it in Applications or Utilities. I assume I'm looking in the wrong place? Why would a .plist file open in TextEdit if I have the plist editor installed?
Thanks

How can I find .plist and .kext files?

How can I find .plist and .kext files which are corrupt and need to be deleted before restarting and reloading applications)? Where are they hidden? How do I make them visible?
/hezet

Thank you Eric and Lanny for your answers!
I was confused as the files could neither be found by Spotlight nor by the search field in the upper right corner of the Finder windows (why??), but I have located them now. The files were:
AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext The name appeared in i a warning window now and then.
The .plist files were reported red (failed) by EtreCheck:
com.apple.CSConfigDotMacCert-***@me.com-SharedServices.Agent.plist
com.adobe.SwitchBoard.
com.apple.netauth.sysagent.plist
I have deleted all four files and restarted the computer. Now there are no items in red in EtreCheck, but none of the deleted files has been replaced after restart.
So far the computer seems to work well. What action do you consider appropriate now?

Can't find valid editor

I've just recently purchased Dreamweaver 8, and am having a
problem that I found solutions to on the internet (including this
board somewhere) - but it's not working.
I use JSP files but have a different extension - "JWQ". I've
added this extension to the JSP entry on extensions.txt - for both
the Java Server Pages and All Documents lines. I have also added
this extension to the winffileextension/macfileextnesion as well.
Dreamweaver keeps giving me the can't find valid editor. (I can
work around this by just opening it with dreamweaver - it parses
things in both code and design view).
Anything I'm missing?
Also, I have a "site" setup that when I update the template,
NONE of these files update unless I have them open. the template
updater returns "0 updates" across the site. I've worked w/ MX 2004
@ an old company I thought I had these issues resolved for future
releases, but this is driving me crazy.
Any help appreciated.

Try this, right click on the access.mdb pick open with/
browse click the
dropdown go to your programs folder find Microsoft
office/office/msaccess.exe and click open see if that works.

Dreamweaver CC and Windows 8.1 - Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension

Was running the latest version with no issues and then I loaded Office 2013 .. Now when I am in the remote site and try to double click on a .cfm file, I get a dialog box..Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension..
I tried the support chat and they said Dreamweaver support was not available, try again later???
So I thought I would reinstall the CC version and now I can see the Dreamweaver icon next to the files but still ... can't open the file..
Any assistance would be appreciated?
Leo

The issue is only in Windows 8.x where when Dreamweaver CC is installed, it is not able to turn on the file type associations by default. The workaround for now is to manually add the extensions both within Windows and then within Dreamweaver CC itself.
Go to Control Panel > Programs > Default Programs > Set Your Default Programs and select Dreamweaver CC and then select 'Choose defaults for this program' and Select All or the extensions you want to open in Dreamweaver CC
Start Dreamweaver CC and go to Edit > Preferences > File Types/Editors and add '.cfm .cfc' to the extensions and then add C:\Program Files (x86)\Dreamweaver CC\Dreamweaver.exe then click on Apply and Close
That should be it.

Where can I find a user-guide for the awfull Text-Editor used to enter/edit these forums entries?

I am desesperate to understand how quite basic functions (just as one of many examples: how can I paste text, that I have formatted in MS Word and want to paste into a Forum Post-Entry?) can be done with the primitive and awful Text Editor used to enter/edit Forum Entries. Notice, that like many other Adobe users, I am not familiar at all with HTML and it is therefore a description of the badly named "Full Editor" that I am looking for.
Where can I find a User-Guide for this Text Editor?
My recommendation to Adobe: exercise enough brute pressure on the developers of this primitive Text Editor to force them to provide something more reasonable, more powerful and more intuitive.

Thank You Jochem
I was trying to understand how I could do things as simple as inserting text that I had previously copied. Since there are neither command menüs nor buttons for the Insert of previously copied text, I was trying a mouse right click.....and was being offered in the context menu the choice between "Insert Link", "Insert Image", "Alignement", and "Insert Table"....... but no possibility of a plain insert of previously copied text.
Now, I realize, that Clearstream supports at least the keyword shortcut of "Ctrl V" ........that I am not using in any other software (I never use any keyboard shortcuts).
Since Clearstream does not support reasonable choices in the contextual menus, I will need to memorize the most important keyword shortcuts.
By the way: I detected now, that the "Ctrl V" keyboard shortcut allows me to insert formatted text.
Even, if I will now begin to be able to use reasonably Clearstream, I am quite surprised to see that such a software provides neither reasonable Contextual Menus, nor a User Guide, nor........
Thank you again Jochem for your patience with me.

I can't find the plist for my Dashboard stickies in the normal place - is there anywhere else they might be?

I go to Mackintosh HD/Users but then can't find any folder that contains the widget-com.apple.widget.stickies.plist - my username doesn't seem to have a folder associated with it.
I go to t slats (my home folder) and there's no Library in there. I go to Mackintosh HD/Library/Preferences and there's no widget-com.apple.widget.stickies.plist
Any suggestions?

Hi tslatsau,
Try this:
Open a Finder Window
Click on the "Go" in the above status bar
Press and HOLD the "option/alt" key
the "Library" should appear in the Go list
Click Library still while holding the option/alt key
Look for com.Apple.Stickies.Plist

N8 Video Editor - Can't find music tracks

My N8 video editor can't find any of the 2500+ music tracks (mostly AAC files and rare MP3s) that I have in the music library.
It can only find 4 AAC alarm tones that I imported from my N95 8GB.
What's wrong with it ?

Just had this myself as well - seems there should be an icon just under the Library for Music Videos but there is not at the moment. Have not found a way to add one either.
My solution was to simply create a smart playlist and choose the option 'video type' and set to music video. This created the list of all of my music videos.
Hope it helps, Regards Mike

DW CC: Can't find a valid editor for this file extension

Hi,
I am using dreamweaver cc for 1 month now. I have been having difficulty opening .asp file.
In the File panel, when i click on one of the asp files, the error message is 'Can't find a valid editor for this file extension'.
To solve this problem, I will right click on the file and choose Open with > Dreamweaver.
However, this is very inconvenient. Someone pls help!

You can configure that in your Operating System. In my version of Windows XP, open any folder and select TOOLS/FOLDER OPTIONS/FILE TYPES then scroll to the asp file type and select DW as the editor.

Support for ColdFusion and other databases were removed from DWCC. You can add them back with the Legacy Extension, or adding a paid extension from DMX Zone...
About 1/2 way down this page for the legacy extension: http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/
It's a paid extension, but adds back a lot of the things that were removed...

This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
