Could not open Help File 'Aperture User Manual.PDF'

I downloaded the trial version, while waiting for my boxed version of Aperture to arrive. Once it came in, I entered the serial number and continued using the original application. However, when I try to access the user manual via Help, I get an Alert saying, "Could not open Help File 'Aperture User Manual.PDF'". I manually copied the PDF file from the CD to the documents folder, and then from there to the Applications folder - nothing makes a difference. I even reinstalled - same results. I have tried some of the other items in Help -- if it is for a manual, I get the same Alert.
Any help would be appreciated.

The files are all there. When I checked their properties, I noticed that the PDF files didn't point to adobe acrobat reader!
Before uninstalling Aperture and then reinstalling it, I tried to reinstall the latest version of Acrobat Reader. Suddenly, I could access the Aperture documents!
I am using a new iMac -- apparently, when I transfered all of my files from my old G5 iMac, Acrobat hadn't properly transfered. Reinstalling Adoe solved the problem!
Thanks for the help!

    I have a MacBook pro version 10.6.7 with snow leopard. After an scheduled software upgrade I could not open Quicken (It said it could not open the files). Now I can only open it if I have my external drive on. Can you help?
    All the information that I had input on Quicken is gone. I have to have the external hard drive that I use to back up to be able to use quicken now. It is as if it was erased from the laptop hardrive

    Try repairing permissions. My favorite way is with a utility called AppleJack. Info and download here. It's free. It only works when you boot in Single User Mode. When restarting or booting, hold down the Command key and S keys.
    You will get a very different startup screen that looks like the Terminal app has hijacked the screen. Just let the lines of text scroll by. When that happens you will get a text entry prompt. Type in "AppleJack" without the quotation marks.
    A DOS looking menu will appear. Choose 1 or d to run Disk Repair. If you get a message that Disk Repair found and corrected errors, run it again. Repeat until you get the "your disk appears to be ok" message. This rarely happens with my experience, though. This does the same thing as as booting from an external drive and running Disk Utility's repair. Only, no external drive is required!
    Next, choose 2 or p to repair disk permissions. This will take a little while. AppleJack warns that it will take up to an half hour to run repair permissions. It'n never taken more than about ten minutes for my MacBook Pro.
    As permissions are repaired, you will see each repair scroll on the screen. When done, the menu returns, choose q to quit. Then at the prompt, enter "exit" without the quotes. Your MacBook Pro should restart into Mac OS normally after this.
    Hope this helps.

    I recently downloaded acrobat reader dc. After download was complete, I could not open PDF files. Error read "Adobe acrobat reader DC could not open this file because its either not a supported file or the file has been damaged". Any suggestions?

    HI davidd92392148,
    Is this error occurring for all PDF files that you try to open? There is an issue where all file icons can change to the PDF icon after installation, so is it possible that the files you're trying to open have been affected by this issue (and aren't actually PDF files)? Please see Application, file icons change to Acrobat/Reader icon.
    If that document isn't the key, then please tell us more about these files. Where are they stored? Did they open in previous versions of Reader?
    Best,
    Sara

    NOW QUESTIONS!!!!!
    1. Why I can't change the status of database to OPEN as grid user?
    2. The status is always STARTED when querying v$instance. İs it status of +ASM or database?
    3. When checking database as grid user it seems to be Database runnning...  If running why it is not in OPEN state? What is running means here?
    4. When I log on as oracle user and query v$instance, then error shown above occured. And also when startup  the database then another error occured as in above. WHY?
    5. When I edit /etc/oratab file manually why second row saved but the first one is changed after restart the system?
    6. Normally, which user have to start, stop or manage database? I think that oracle user is necessary for managing database and the grid user is only for managing ASM and Oracle Restart.
    PLEASE HELP ME TO SOLVE THIS CHAOTİC SİTUATİON!!!
    Thanks,

    I have installed an Oracle 11gR2 on Oracle Linux Server 6.6 (Virtualbox)
    Pl identify exact version of 11gR2 to 4 decimal places. As noted in your other thread - Failed to start oracle-ohasd, error: Inappropriate ioctl for device ohasd failed to start at roothas.pl - you will need a minimum version of 11.2.0.3 for Linux 6.x - using a lower version may result in unexpected issues or problems.

  • Could not open scratch file

    When I try and open Photoshop, I get the following error "Could not open a scratch file because you do not have the necessary access privileges" followed by "could not initialize Photoshop because you do not have the necessary access privileges".  As a result, Photoshop fails o open.
    I have tried repairing Disk permissions, I have deleted the Photoshop Settings file, and I have tried Resetting Home Folder Permissions.
    I am the primary user, and it's only my user account that has the problem.  When I try and Reset Home Folder Permissions for my account, the process never completes.  When I perform the reset for the other users, it takes seconds.
    I've tried reinstalling Photshop, but still get the same error and Photshop fails to start.
    I concerned this is the beginning of a worsening problem with OSX LION.
    Any suggestions???

    Hi,
    having the same problem here. We have 10 Mac Pro machines with OSX 10.6.8 and CS5 Photoshop 12.0.4. By now five of these machines have given the same error: "could not open scratch file because disc is not available" and "could not save ... because of a program error".
    The scratch disk is the same one which has the system and it hasn't been touched.
    I have repaired the disk permissions.
    This just started two days ago and haven't noticed it before. Any clues what could be causing this?
    Thanks,

  • Could not open location 'file:///home/geoff'

    I'm using Gnome and after the last update today ( I always do pacman -Syu everyday and accept whatever it gives me in my noobidity ):(
    Now I find that when I go to Places--Home Folder and Places--Desktop I get this message.
    Could not open location 'file:///home/geoff'  (or 'file:///home/geoff/Desktop')
    There was an error launching the default action command associated with this location
    Have I done something stupid in accepting all updates without question? Or is it something else?
    Can you put me on the right learning curve and fix this.
    Thanks

    I think that the latest udev upgrade has caused the problem. Correct me if I'm wrong.
    I did the same upgrade on my laptop and got the same fault.
    Apart from the faults in my previous message if I open a terminal over any page I'm looking at, like this for instance, it will not stay "above" the page when the box "only on this workspace" is checked. I have to check "always on top" to make it stay so I can cut and paste things.
    When the terminal is minimized in the bottom panel and I click on it, it comes up but the moment I move the mouse pointer to the terminal screen it disappears back to being minimized.
    I've never had this weird behavior before.
    Hoping someone can help
    thanks

  • Web Intelligence report scheduling: Error "Could not open the file"

    Hello,
    we are on BO 4.0 SP9 Patch 1.
    Since the update to this patch level we have intermittent failure of scheduled reports in Web Intelligence.
    Error message is: "Could not open the file *.wid"
    There has been neither a change of the report nor a promotion.
    Former schedules finished successful.
    SAP note search or SCN search only showed notes with the issue that this error occurs after a promotion.
    Does anyone has experiences with this error?

    Hi Sebastian,
    If Hot Back is enabled I would suggest turning this feature off unless it’s a business requirement.
    In addition as a workaround in the reoccurring jobs set the number of retries to something greater than 0.
    This issue was fixed in BI4.0 SP08, I would suggest opening an incident with support.
    Hope the above helps

    By default, oracle will look first for a spfile named "spfile<ORACLE_SID>.ora". Lacking that, it will try to find "init<ORACLE_SID>).ora.
    Eventually,I would like the db to read the spfile spfileorcl.ora during the startup.How can I achieve this?
    Once you have started the db (I believe a startup nomount will be sufficient) you can issue CREATE SPFILE ... Details are in the fine SQL Reference manual found at tahiti.oracle.com
    BTW, "open" is the default behavior of "startup", so no need to specify it. A simple "startup" does the same thing.
    Thanks
