Can't open files Windows machine from on OS X 6.8

I mapped a Windows 7 volume to my Mac.  I can see the files and folders.  However, when I try to open any file, like a plain text file, Mac reports that the file cannot be opened.  I use the same workgroup, username, and password on both machines.  I'm an Admin on the Windows box and have full control of the files.  Thanks for some help! 

See if these are any help:

Don't be concerned these articles refer to 10.8 -- the procedures have been the same for quite a while.

    Hi Ashley Clavette,
    The Initial view setting works perfectly when the file is opened in Acrobat after setting the desired Initial View.
    When you upload the file onto Wordpress, and view it on that website in the browser...it might be using a different pdf handler program which might be causing this issue ( it would be helpful, if you could provide the screenshot) , however when you download the pdf again from wordpress server...and open in Acrobat/Reader...then what  exactly happens ?  Does the pdf opens in the desired Initial View setting?

  • Can't open files with spaces from gui applications

    When I try to open a file or directory from say qbittorrent or clementine in xfce, I get the message:
    "Failed to open URI "file:///somewhere/filename%20with%20spaces".
    Googling told me this problem was due to passing a "%U" instead of a "%F" somwhere, but I don't know where to change this.

    I don't use any DE or those kinds of gui tools, but the "%U" instead of an "%F" issue would be in the .desktop files.  There are systemwide .desktop files in /usr/share/applications/ and you can override these with your own customized versions in ~/.local/share/applications/
    So a workaround at least would be to copy the relevant desktop files from the system-wide folder to your user's folder and edit them appropriately changing %U to%F.

  • Can't open files in CS6 from LR4

    I just migrated CS6 and LR4 to a new iMac. I then re-installed CS6 from disc because the licensing didn't come over. So far so good. But now in LR4, when enter CMD-E, or choose "open in CS6" from the Edit menu, nothing happens. The file does not open in CS6.
    Not sure what I broke or how to fix it but I need it fixed ASAP.
    Thanks.

    Working now after I ran the updates. Sorry.

    Hi baftos,
    I tried to telnet remote windows machine from my local machine on port 23, its not connected and given error message like "Connect failed".
    As your response, if we can telnet to remote windows machine from local machine then we can connect from Java. Is it correct ?.
    Can you please help me to resolve this issue. And also please confirm the port (23) is correct, which I was used to connect remote machine from telnet.
    Regards,
    Praveen

    Are you having the same problem where either Email app won't open up or the PC Settings keeps blinking but refusing to stay up?
    I've tried a restart but nothing changed. So, I'll guess we'll have to wait patiently until they find a solution for the next big patch/Windows update.
    I get the feeling that recent update may have done a little harm than progress but guess that's why it's still in the Beta stages before release.

  • Can you open files on a pc from time machine?

    Can you open files on a pc from time machine?

    You have to be more descriptive. Partition what?
    File sharing can be accomplished many ways,.
    Network
    Usb flash drive
    External hard drive
    NAS
    DVDs
    It is as simple as copying/saving from one computer/drive to another computer/drive.

  • Illustrator CC 2014 can't open files sent from Draw.

    Illustrator CC 2014 v18.0.0 (just installed today, 11/6/2014): I can't open files sent from Adobe Draw. The files send from Draw OK, but in Illustrator—which finally opens as advertised—I get an error message, i.e. The file "Dog - Drawing 1.draw" is in an unknown format and cannot be opened. This goes for all of my work, whether created in Ideas then opened recently in Draw, or files created in Draw from scratch.

    Illustrator files (.ai or .pdf)  that I save using CC 2014 vs 8.1.0 on my Windows (8.1) machine on our network server. I try to open them on Mac.
    'The File "x.pdf" is an unknown format and cannot be opened'
    This may in some way be related to accessing the file over the server since when I transfer the file to my lcal drive I don't get the same error.  I still can't open the file but I get an error near the end of the opening process :
    "Could not read the file because the plug-in made an invalid request of the Photoshop adaptor"
    Again, I can open this file using CC 2014 vs 8.1.0 on my Windows (8.1) machine.

    can't open files from my e-mail. How to fix it?

    Hi Boxergirl,
    Did you happen to install anything else, or make any other changes to your system. I'm flummoxed how signing up for an online service could affect file associations. Here are the steps for resetting file associations on Windows 8.1: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki/windows8_1-desktop/windows-81-how-to-set-a nd-restore-file/16c2e10d-ec99-4fee-8f56-b87c4338e006
    Please let me know how it goes.

  • Can't open files from iCloud Drive on Mac

    Hi,
    Can't open file from iCloud Drive on my MacBook Air (OS X 10.10.1).
    I created new file (in Numbers for example). Then Numbers->File->Open->iCloud Drive->my_file.numbers and it says "Can't open file my_file.numbers".
    I can preview the file by pressing Space, but openning from application and double-click on it doesn't work.
    Files that were created earlear also not opened.
    Does anybody know how to solve this problem? thanks.

    Using smtp.mail.me.com - also tried smtp.me.com
    SSL yes
    port 587
    SMTP Authentification Yes
    Security SLS/TLS - also tried STARTTLS
    User full **@me.com email address - also tried user name without @me.com
    I have spoken to apple support this afternoon and we tried the variations shown above.
    Support told me to wait for a day and try again!
    After the iCloud authentication problem last night I changed all my passwords I wonder if there is an SMTP problem at me.com perhaps not reading the updated passwords?
    I'll try and use the old passwords later.

  • How can I open the windows file directory in "WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED" trigger

    Dear All,
    How can I open the windows file directory in “WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED” trigger?

    Blessan Joseph,
    The solution is dependent on your Forms version and if your applications is traditional Client/Server (CS) (Forms 6i and lower) or web deployed (Forms 6i and higher). For CS, you would use the Get_File_Name() built-in as Faa demonstrated. For Web, you will need to use the WebUtil library function Client_Get_File_Name() as Sarah (OGIR) demonstrated. Both of these functions will return the full path to a file. Note: WebUtil is an external library so it requires you to perform some configuration on your developer client as well as on the Application Server. WebUtil is included with Forms 9i and higher, but you must download it for Forms 6i.
    My requirement is user should able to select windows directory for the output.Do you really need to allow the user to write to a file in the Windows directory? This is very dangerous and you should not allow users or programs to write to the Windows directory. Users should only be able to write files to "User" directories (\My Documents\<Directory name>).

    If someone's response is helpful or correct, please mark it accordingly.
