Can;t preview php files localy on Mac

Good day. I usually do my web development on a pc and recently move some files to the mac. Now when in dreamweaver and i do "browse in firefox", firefox prompts me to save the php file instead of previewing it. It previews it only on safari. Can anyone help. I am on a Mac pro using OSX Lion 10.7.4. Help!!!!

  • Can't preview RAW files in Bridge CC, administrator issue?

    Can't preview RAW files in Bridge CC.
    When i try to upate Bridge, it says:
    Bridge is unable to check for updates, cause it can't connect to the internet or user is logged in as a non-administrative user.
    So then i have to log in as a administrative user to the Bridge...and update..
    Can't it be done easier???
    I must also say i have also Bridge CS6 installed on pc and there everything is working fine.
    Thx.

    1/ Adobe Bridge should be possible to open without administrator issue.
    By default it does, something seems wrong with your install
    2/the images DO appear first for 2 or 3 seconds , then it turns to a RAW file icon.
    Again indicating a wrong install, you see the embedded jpeg previews briefly but then the Raw thumbs should be build. When you see the generic Raw icon this means you don't have the correct version of the ACR plug in installed to match your camera or no converter at all.
    Try this page:

    3/i only succeed in openening Bridge descently , so with ableing to see RAW files , WHEN i go to c:/progamfiles/Adobe/AdobeBridhecc/Bridge.exe
    When, If i copy the exe file for opening Bridge CC and i put it on the Desktop, it DOES NOT Preview the RAW files.
    Here you have lost me. As a Mac user I'm afraid I don't know nor understand anything about .exe, I download the .dmg file for an application which then automatically opens and I just click on the install icon, provide admin password and serial number once and then start using it without bothering about install ever again

  • Can't upload any files from my mac to the Internet

    I am new to Macbook, and this obviously never happened before
    So, the problem is:
    I can't upload any files from my Mac anywhere (Facebook, Instagram, etc)
    I can't attach files to e-mails.
    any files that are on my desktop, folders - they just turn in grey and I can't choose them.
    The only way I can do it is by going to "ALL FILES" where I have to search through all the files that are on my Mac
    Keep in mind that this is a glitch, because earlier it was all fine and normal
    To see what I mean I am uploading a skreen shot of attemp of uploading files to Fb.
    Can anybody help? Can it be some sort of virus?

    Okay I had the same problem but I figured it out.  When you go to choose file, all the links are greyed out.  Use two fingers simulatiously and click down on the file you want, then choose "quick look" from the option menu.  This will open a preview of your document and make the open button usable.  Close the preview, and then select the open button. 
    The site I was trying to use says it only supports IE, so maybe that is what causes the problem.
    Hope it works for you!

  • How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad, How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad

    How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad, How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad

    Yes you can definitely do this. You'll need an app on the iPad that handles PDF viewing and editing. There are many around - two of the best I've seen are GoodReader and PDF Expert.
    In iTunes when you iPad is connected to your PC, go to the Apps tab and scroll down and you'll see the File Sharing section. You can drag files to there to share them to your iPad.
    You could also look at online file sync services like PDF to ePub Maker if you prefer not to have to connect your iPad to a PC

    how can i convert video files from my mac to watch them on my iphone?, how can i convert video files to watch them on my iphone?

    Turns out the answer to that question changes if you ask it more than 4 times, so ask it again....
    The answer depends on the type of video files you want to convert.  If they are DRM protected commercial videos, no help can be given here.  Google.

    Check out software like Data Rescue 3 (and you need an external drive to recover to)

  • How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?

    How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?

    The .DS_Store file is normal. It holds certain settings related to the folder it is found in. Removing these files is futile, as they will come back, as you have observed.
    If you are seeing them on your Mac, that means you have changed settings so that your Mac is showing invisible files in the Finder. To reverse that, run the following command in the Terminal:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles NO
    This will hide them, and any other invisible files, from view.
    If you are seeing them on a Windows machine, just ignore them. They're not doing any harm.
    If you found a Terminal command that is supposed to stop them from being created, I would be extremely skeptical as to the wisdom of running it.

  • HT204382 how can I transfer wma files to my mac?

    how can I transfer wma files to my mac?

    A Macintosh Classic (http://support.apple.com/kb/sp198) has a SCSI hard drive. Even though the hard drive can be removed and placed in an external SCSI enclosure, it is not going to be easy to find a way of connecting it to a modern Mac. That would normally require a USB-to-SCSI adapter, which may or may not be supported under the latest operating system versions.
    The easiest method of transferring files from a Macintosh Classic may be via an external USB floppy drive connected to the modern Mac. 1.44 MB Mac-formatted floppy disks can be used for such transfers (not 800K).
    A SCSI Zip (100) drive could in principle be connected to the SCSI port of the Macintosh Classic. The Zip disk could then be moved to a USB Zip (100) drive connected to a modern computer.
    The Macintosh Classic does not have built-in Ethernet, nor a slot for an Ethernet card (certain other "classic" Macintosh computers do have the ability to hold an Ethernet card). There are some external solutions (such as SCSI-to-Ethernet adapters), but with limitations. For a networking overview, the http://www.applefool.com/se30/ web page could perhaps be of interest.
    It is also possible to arrange a null-modem connection between a Macintosh Classic and a modern computer, providing that a USB-to-serial adapter is attached to the latter (appropriate terminal emulation programs are needed on both sides).

  • Can I USE ASP FILES ON A MAC?

    For ASP?!?
    You need to have a testing server running on Windows.

  • HT1145 I can't see my files on my USB shared drive.  It shows there is lots of space taken up, but I can't access the files via my Mac.

    I can't see my files on my USB shared drive.  It shows there is lots of space taken up, but I can't access the files via my Mac.  How do I see them?  I also can't see them on my iPad using FileBrowser.

    You don't have access to it to configure it via Time Machine? You lost me on that one, Time Machine is used for Backup.
    Here is a basic article on the first setup and what you should see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1178
    To configure Time Capsule you should be using "Airport Utility" 5.3 or higher that is located in the Utilities folder. You can tell if its version 5.3 because the icon will have blue lines instead of orange lines like the older versions. Since you are running Leopard 10.5.6 and you ran Software Update you are probably already running the latest 5.3 version.
    The light flashing amber means you haven't entered enough information so that it can get to the internet. Once you have that info entered the light will turn green.
    If your absolutely sure your CAT5 cables are good you can try a hard reset. I think you have to push the reset button on the back and hold it for 5 seconds or so until the amber light blinks rapidly, then when you release the button it does the reset then.

    Hope this helps! If not I would probably call AppleCare support or see if you can exchange it.

    I can't print CS5 files from my Mac OSX (Mavericks). CS5 crashes when sent to print.  Can print from other applications (Word, etc.).

    I just tried installing them. I got the message that "Some updates failed to install" (including for CS5), to quit and try again. I was curious and tried again to print and lo and behold, I could print!  I'm still nervous that not everything installed and wonder how to get a complete install.

    I have transferred a load of files from my PC to my iMac using the migration assistant.  The message on both machines say that the process was successful but I can not find the files on the mac.  Any ideas?

    When you use Migration Assitant it creates another user account and puts your files there. Please log out of your normal account and log into the new account. Had you use Setup Assistant when it asked if you were migrating that would not have occured. You have a couple of options, combine the two accounts (not recommended) or start over, use Setup Assistant and have everything in one user account. Here is a link to Pondin's guide for Lion Setup Assistant tips however if you want to combine the two accounts he has addressed that in

  • Can I transfer music files from my mac to my new pc?

    I was wondering if there is any way I can transfer my iPod files from my mac unto my pc (without deleeting them). How do I do this and can someone provide me the link to the original (4 GB) iPod Mini software like on the disk, because I seem to have lost mine.

    Probably the easiest way to use an iPod on both Mac and Windows computers is to format the iPod (using iPod Updater) using the PC. This will force your iPod to use the Windows file system (FAT32) which both the Mac and PC can read from and write to without the help of additional software. Of course then all your software updates for the iPod will have to be done on Windows.If you need to use a Mac (HFS+) formatted iPod on a Windows PC, you'll need to install some 3rd party software such as XPlay 2.0 (which you can get from MediaFour Software). This will enable your Windows PC to read a Mac-formatted iPod.
    However, please be aware that Apple does not officially support cross platform use.
    The iPod updater software is here.
