Cannot open folders

I have moved a copy of the domain.sites file to a new machine as described in many other posts. Within iWeb I can access the single pages of my site but cannot open any of the folders. If I click "get info" on the domain.sites file I know all the information is there by the file size.
Suggestions?

To eliminate the application as the culprite (or confirm it), move you domain.sites file out of your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and to the Desktop. Then launch iWeb and create a new site when asked. Can you click on the site's folder and see the window as well as what's in the Inspector window?
If you can't then a reinstall of iWeb is warranted. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,

If the new domain file is good then your existing domain file is damaged. There is one more possible fix but make a backup copy of your domain file first.
That is to try Koeklin's fix from his post in this topic: Topic : can't open a domain.sites.2. Although for a different problem it might jump start the domain file. .

Cannot open folders by double-clicking

I have an iMac (running Tiger) at work which I have recently joined to the network. With my iMac at home I am able to do anything I like without restrictions. Not so at work. I have a separate user on my machine at work with administrator privileges. This user does not log on to the network. When I log onto the network (using AdmitMac and Active Directory) my user account does not appear listed in Users when I log on as administrator.
The real problem I have however is that when I log on to the network, I cannot open folders in the finder by double-clicking. However, I can open them by user finder>file>open. Any ideas?
I also downloaded from IBM the latest update to Lotus Notes as a .sit file. Double clicking on this does nothing, even with the administrator account. Has this anything to do with Tiger and Classic?

Thanks for the "silly" tip...I changed the "double click speed" from medium to fast and nothing opened without going to "open"....seeing your message i tried moving the double click speed back to middle and the problem was instantly repaired...I just hate that the solutions can be soooo simple...thanks and remember...in computing...no idea is "silly"...LLLL

Cannot open folders in NEW WINDOW

Is anyone else having trouble with the Finder not opening folders in a new window? I have gone to Finder preferences, and unchecked the box for "Open Folders in a new tab..." But I still cannot open my folders in a new window. I have thousands of folders, and some are set to open in icon view, some in list view, etc. depending on the contents. But now all that has disappeared. Any suggestions???

As others have said.....first, go to Finder > Preferences and make sure the checkbox is deselected for "open folders in tabs instead of new windows".
Any folder can be opened in a new window by holding down the Command Key while double-clicking the folder. But sooner or later you will forget to hold down that key, and then a folder will open in a tab (which will probably resize the window and cause much aggravation and cursing).
If you're like me and don't like tabs very much, there is a way to make folders always open in windows with a simple double-click. (I'm using Mavericks 10.9.5). Go to any folder on the Desktop, open it, and select View > Hide Toolbar. After that, all folders within that folder will open in a new window. I tried this with the Macintosh HD Folder (which I put on my Desktop) and all folders within it open in new windows with only a double-click.
Of course, you will lose the sidebar and the toolbar, so it's not a perfect solution, but at least you'll be done with tabs.

Cannot Open Folders from Dock

Whenever I try to open a Folder from the Dock using the "Open In Finder" command the folder window does not show up but instead the Preview app starts up and scans the selected folder,i.e., Applications, for any files it recognises.
I have repaired the permissions but it makes no difference. I have removed all folder icons from the dock and replaced them but to no avail. I have deleted the dock preferences files in my Home folder & restarted but the problem remains.

I have realised that the same problem occurs when selecting a Folder from Spotlight. Instead of the Folder Widow opening Preview opens and scans the Folder for recognisable files. arrgh!

Adobe Bridge CC crashed cannot open folders with MP4 video

My Bridge is crashing often, after trouble free for a long time. This morning I notice why, it will crash when a folder with with MP4 video is present. Video downloaded from Canon camera in MOV files are ok but as soon as this is converted to MP4 by Photoshop, Bridge will crash

Hello,
This has been happening to me too and I have a Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bits with 8 GB RAM and Intel i5 dual-core @ 2.3GHz.
I think from all previous messages this happens regardless of the system running underneath - maybe just on Windows systems.
I thought it was about cache so I bumped my cache to its maximum and it still crashes. My cache folder is on an external HDD and space is not the issue.
I had my don't-process-files-larger-than 4096 MB because I thought it was about the amount of data it can process per file. I just changed it to 1024 and so far it has been working fine (no crashes). I invite you to try this:
Preferences » Thumbnails » Do Not Process Files Larger Than 1024 MB.
Maybe my assumptions were the other way around, may the approach of "I don't care about files larger than" 1 GB is better than to consume all.
Nevertheless, I hope Adobe has time to test this and come up with an answer.
Best regards,

Cannot open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)

Fresh installation of Exchange Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012.
Our first test account cannot access their email via Outlook but can access fine through OWA. The following message appears - "Cannot open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize
your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)" is displayed.
If I turn off cached Exchange mode, setting the email account to not
cache does not resolve the issue and i get a new error message - "Cannot open your default e-mail folders. The file (path\profile name).ost is not an Outlook data file (.ost). Very odd since it creates its own .ost file when you run it for the first
time.
I cleared the appdata local Outlook folder and I tested on a new laptop that has never connected to Outlook, same error message on any system.
Microsoft Exchange RPC Client Access service is running.
No warning, error or critical messages in the eventlog, it's like the healthiest server alive.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I haven't encountered this issue with previous versions of Exchange.

So it looks like a lot of people are having this issue and seeing how Exchange 2013 is still new (relatively to the world) there isn't much data around to answer this. I've spend ALOT of time trying to figure this out.
Here is the answer. :) - No I don't know all but I'm going to try to give you the most reasonable answer to this issue, in a most logical way.
First thing I did when I was troubleshooting this issue is that I ignored Martina Miskovic's suggestion for Step4 http://technet.microsoft.com/library/jj218640(EXCHG.150)because it didn't make sense to me because I was trying to connect
Outlook not outside the LAN but actually inside. However, Martina's suggestion does fix the issue if it's applied in the correct context.
This is where the plot thickens (it's stew). She failed to mention that things like SSL (which I configure practically useless - anyone who ever worked in a business environment where the owner pretty much trusts anyone in the company, otherwise they don't
work there - very good business practice in my eyes btw, can confirm that...) are some sort of fetish with Microsoft lately. Exchange 2013 was no exception.
In exchange 2003, exchange 2007 and exchange 2010 - you could install it and then go to outlook and set it up. And when outlook manual Microsoft Exchange profile would ask you for server name, you would give it and give the name of the person who you setting
up - as long as machine is on the domain, not much more is needed. IT JUST WORKS! :) What a concept, if the person already on premises of the business - GIVE HIM ACCESS. I guess that was too logical for Microsoft. Now if you're off premises you can use things
like OutlookAnywhere - which I might add had their place under that scenario.
In Exchange 2013, the world changed. Ofcourse Microsoft doesn't feel like telling it in a plain english to people - I'm sure there is an article somewhere but I didn't find it. Exchange 2013 does not support direct configuration of Outlook like all of it's
previous versions. Did you jaw drop? Mine did when I realized it. So now when you are asked for your server name in manual outlook set up and you give it Exchange2013.yourdomain.local - it says cannot connect to it. This happens because ALL - INTERNAL AND
EXTERNAL connection are now handled via OutlookAnywhere. You can't even disable that feature and have it function the reasonable way.
So now the question still remains - how do you configure outlook. Well under server properties there is this nice section called Outlook anywhere. You have a chance to configure it's External and Internal address. This is another thing that should be logical
but it didn't work that way for me. When I configured the external address different from the internal - it didn't work. So I strongly suggest you get it working with the same internal address first and then ponder how you want to make it work for the outside
users.
Now that you have this set up you have to go to virtual directories and configure the external and internal address there - this is actually what the Step 4 that Martina was refering to has you do.
Both external and internal address are now the same and you think you can configure your outlook manually - think again. One of the most lovely features of Outlook Anywhere, and the reason why I had never used it in the past is that it requires a TRUSTED
certificate.
See so it's not that exchange 2013 requires a trusted certificate - it's that exchange 2013 lacks the feature that was there since Windows 2000 and Exchange 5.5.
So it's time for you to install an Active Direction Certificate Authority. Refer to this wonderful article for exact steps - http://careexchange.in/how-to-install-certificate-authority-on-windows-server-2012/
Now even after you do that - it won't work because you have to add the base private key certificate, which you can download now from your internal certsrv site, to Default Domain Policy (AND yes some people claim NEVER mess with the Default Domain Policy,
always make an addition one... it's up to you - I don't see direct harm if you know what you want to accomplish) see this: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738131%28v=ws.10%29.aspx if you want to know exact steps.
This is the moment of ZEN! :) Do you feel the excitement? After all it is your first time. Before we get too excited lets first request and then install the certificate to actual Exchange via the gui and assign it to all the services you can (IIS, SMTP and
there is a 3rd - I forgot, but you get the idea).
Now go to your client machine where you have the outlook open, browse to your exchange server via https://exchang2013/ in IE and if you don't get any certificate errors - it's good. If you do run on hte client and the server: gpupdate /force This will refresh
the policy. Don't try to manually install the certificate from Exchange's website on the client. If you wanna do something manually to it to the base certificate from the private key but if you added it to the domain policy you shouldn't have to do it.
Basically the idea is to make sure you have CA and that CA allows you to browse to exchange and you get no cert error and you can look at the cert and see that's from a domain CA.
NOW, you can configure your outlook. EASY grasshoppa - not the manual way. WHY? Cause the automatic way will now work. :) Let it discover that exachange and populate it all - and tell you I'm happy! :)
Open Outlook - BOOM! It works... Was it as good for you as it was for me?
You may ask, why can't I just configure it by manual - you CAN. It's just a nightmare. Go ahead and open the settings of the account that got auto configed... How do you like that server name? It should read something like [email protected]
and if you go to advanced and then connection tab - you'll see Outlook Anywhere is checked as well. Look at the settings - there is the name of the server, FQDN I might add. It's there in 2 places and one has that Mtdd-something:Exchange2013.yourdomain.local.
So what is that GUID in the server name and where does it come from. It's the identity of the user's mailbox so for every user that setting will be different but you can figure it out via the console on the Exchange server itself - if you wish.
Also a note, if your SSL certs have any trouble - it will just act like outlook can't connect to the exchange server even though it just declines the connection cause the cert/cert authority is not trusted.
So in short Outlook Anywhere is EVERYWHERE! And it has barely any gui or config and you just supposed to magically know that kind of generic error messages mean what... Server names are now GUIDs of the [email protected] - THAT MAKES PERFECT
SENSE MICROSOFT! ...and you have to manage certs... and the only place where you gonna find the name of the server is inside the d*** Outlook Anywhere settings in the config tab, un it's own config button - CAN WE PUT THE CONFIG ANY FURTHER!
Frustrating beyond reason - that should be Exchange's new slogan...
Hope this will help people in the future and won't get delete because it's bad PR for Microsoft.
PS
ALSO if you want to pick a fight with me about how SSL is more secure... I don't wanna hear it - go somewhere else...

Cannot Start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook Window. The set fo folders cannot be opened. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profil

Cannot Start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook Window. The set fo folders cannot be opened. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)
OK. This is a new outlook setup on a laptop. The mail account is on a MS Exchange Server 2010. The user can log on to their laptop no problem with their AD login and password. To setup the outlook profile we have checked the name OK. When we click finish
and try to start outlook we get the above error message. It is driving me pots as I have tried also of things. I have tried to connect without catching the files. The error message then says that the Exchange Server is down, yet we checked the name OK and
I can log on to the MS Exchange server and see the setup.
What else is it that I need to look at as I have tried everything. I will add that they one service I see not running is the Exchange RPC service. If I try to start it, it fails saying Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services
or programs.
What can I do?

The major cause of this problem is a corrupted Navigation Pane settings file – profilename.xml, where “profilename” is the name of your Outlook profile. A good sign that the
file is corrupted is when the size of the file is shown 0 KB. No one knows the precise reason why this takes place, but all versions of Outlook from 2003 to 2013 may get affected.
Other causes may be when you run Outlook in the compatibility mode, or if you are using a profile generated in an older Outlook version, or if the Outlook data file (.pst or .ost)
was removed or damaged as the result of faulty uninstallation or reinstallation of MS Outlook.
Follow the steps given below to resolve this problem
1. Recover Navigation Pane configuration file
2. Repair your Outlook PST file using Inbox Repair tool
3. Create a new Outlook profil and import data from the old PST file
4. Turn off Compatibility Mode
5. Start Outlook in Safe Mode

Cannot Open Some Public Folders on MacBook

I have several users using my macbook. Each user has their own user account. For user accounts created before "Personal File Sharing" was switched on, other users (except for root) cannot open the "Public" or "Drop" folders. Public and Drop folders for user accounts created after "Personal File Sharing" was switched on may be opened by all users. Both the pre- and post- "Personal File Sharing"-switched-on folders have the correct permissions settings.
The only work-around I can think of to ensure every user has Public and Drop folders that every other user can open is to delete the pre-"Personal File Sharing"-switched-on user-accounts and create new ones.
Any other suggestions? Is there some other setting I need to change?
Help much appreciated.
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.9)

When you say "cannot open the "Public" or "Drop" folders, do you mean that the folders are available in the list of shares but cannot be opened, or that the folders aren't available at all? I'm not sure if this is related to your problem, or what accounts for the different behaviours, but it seems in "Tiger", new accounts are often created with an empty 'sharedDir' property. This property in the user record specifies which of the user's folders is to be shared for non-user access in AFP, and usually has a value of "Public". The "Public" folders of users without this property set will not appear in the list of available "shares" that appears after connecting to an AFP server.
To see what the current value of 'sharedDir' is on a given account, try opening "/Applications" > "Utilities" > "Terminal.app" and entering the command below, substituting 'username' with the user's "short name":<pre>nicl . -read /users/username sharedDir</pre>
The expected output is 'sharedDir: Public', but if it is just 'sharedDir:' or 'No such key: sharedDir', then that would explain why those users' "Public" folders aren't available for personal file sharing. To set the value to "Public", make sure you are logged in to an "admin" account and try this command:<pre>sudo /usr/bin/nicl . -create /users/username sharedDir Public</pre>
Substitute a user's name as above, and enter your "admin" password when prompted (your password will not be visible as you enter it - just press the <Return> key after you are done).

Cannot open documents via doubleclick. must navigate thru folders

I am helping an elderly gentleman. Suddenly he finds that doubleclicking on an Appleworks document does not open it. He has to navigate through the Finder-which is slower and confuses him.
IF he reboots his Mac (iMac 17") everything again is ok and he can simply double click..
But then the problem returns and he cannot open the documents again unless he reboots.
Not sure what triggers the problem-it is not a corruption as the problem clears when reboot. Unless some sort of temporary cache or permission is involved?
Slight suspicion this is related to updated Fax software but not sure. (PageSender)
Has anyone had similar problem? Any known application conflicts?
Responses welcome ... and Happy Holidays

A couple of things might help. Whenever you do an update, & installing software can fall in this category, it's a good idea to do two maintenance tasks, one for the system (Repair Permissions) and one for AppleWorks (delete preferences). (Thanks to Barry for this way to format this very common answer.)
To Repair permissions in 10.4.x, launch Disk Utility, found in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder, click on First Aid, then on Repair Permissions.
To delete AppleWorks’ preference files, go to HD > Users > Library > Preferences. Find and delete the file com.apple.appleworks.plist. Find and open the folder AppleWorks in this Preferences folder, then delete all of the enclosed files (with the exception of the Button Bar Preferences if you have customized the Button Bars). AppleWorks will recreate the preference files as it needs them.
Partly because AppleWorks 6 is actually an OS 9 application carbonized to run in OS X, there can be some confusion between AppleWorks files & OS X because pre-OS X systems don't use file extensions.
Sometimes, merely "telling" OS X that AppleWorks is to open these files will work. Click a known AppleWorks document in the Finder to highlight it & choose Get Info from the File menu. In the Get Info box, click the triangle next to "Open With." Click on this drop-down menu & choose AppleWorks 6. If AppleWorks 6 is not a choice, choose "Other" & navigate to the AppleWorks 6 application. Now click the "Change" button under the text that asks if you want to open all documents like this with AppleWorks 6.
If that doesn't work consistently, you can add the .cwk extension to the file names. This user tip explains how you can add the extension to whole folders of files at a time.

Outlook 2010: "Cannot open your default e-mail folders..."

When I open Outlook 2010 I receive the message: "Cannot open your default email folders. There is not enough memory to perform the operation.", after which the program closes. This is on a network running SBS 2003, with about 25 users, and I
am the only with this problem. System resources on the exchange server are fine, so I can only imagine a disk usage quota has been exceeded somewhere. Storage limits for my account looked fine. I've tried restarting exchange services, restarting
the server itself, restarting my desktop, etc etc, to no avail.
This specific problem just started yesterday, but I've been having memory issues for months now. Usually, the Send and Receive dialogue will tell me that there are not enough resources on the server, but mail comes and goes just fine. It's never
simply refused to let me open outlook before, like it is now.
I also tried logging in through another computer and using Outlook 2003, which actually let me open the program, but did not sync mail properly.
Also, we use cached exchange mode, so I tried creating a new ost file, but no dice.
Anyone know what the deal might be?

Hi,
I agree with Don’s guess of damaged PST file or MAPI profile. Analyzed your description(sync mail improperly on another computer and using cache mode), this problem might occur when your Outlook messaging profile includes a Microsoft Exchange account
that is configured to Use Cached Exchange Mode, and you have lots of cached public folders. Usually, this problem occurs when you exceed approximately 1,000 public folders, or a gigabyte of space is taken.
To prevent this problem, keep the number of cached public folders to fewer than 1,000. Or, reduce the number of folders until the error or errors stop occurring. If you are experiencing this problem, delete some public folder favorites by using the Outlook
client. In some cases, if you have too many favorites, you may be unable to delete the folders because the error occurs when you click the public folder favorites folder.
To delete the public folder favorites, follow these steps:
1.Download MFCMAPI from http://mfcmapi.codeplex.com.
2.Run MFCMAPI.exe.
3.On the Session menu, click Logon and Display Store Table.
4.If you are prompted for a profile, select your profile name, and then click OK.
5.In the top pane, locate the line that corresponds to your mailbox, and double-click it.
6.In the navigation pane (left-side pane), expand Root - Mailbox, and select the Shortcuts folder.
7.In the results pane (right-side pane), locate the PR_FOLDER_CHILD_COUNT properties. The value contains the number of public folder favorites.
8.In the navigation pane, right-click the Shortcuts folder, and then select Empty Items and Subfolders from Folder.
9.Keep the default options, and then click OK.
Good Luck.
