Crashes Opening .rtf Files

Lately whenever I have been trying to open .rtf files I have been recieving a crash error marked this
The application:

The .rtf extension covers a very broad format and it would appear that this file has some embedded elements that AW cannot read. This may actually be am .rtfd, an .rtf file with attachments. Try opening the file in TextEdit.

Since IOS8 update I can no longer open .rtf files in Safari

We have a system at work where by we have a lot of emails saved in our records as .rtf files. We access these on our iPad through safari by visiting our website, on the previous IOS they could just be opened within safari and they popped up in a new tab. Since the update they do not open, instead we get an error message dying that the file cannot be opened- "unable to read document, An error occurred while reading the document.".
Is there a fix for this?

I have the same problem with Safari, it will not open any Rich Text File attachments in Gmail. I can see people thinking why is he using Gmail in safari? Two co-workers and I share a work related account and important stuff comes in by RTF file, the duty person can see it instantly there.
Anyway, I need to open RTF files using safari. A process of elimination, I found a free App that will let you "Open in" when you get an attachment in the mail.
IT is Called RTF Write by Mach Software Design.
(Apple you guys still need to pull your finger out and sort the IOS8 Issues. The RTF problem has been reported as a "Bug")

The new Pages refuses to open RTF files

I cannot open RTF files. Anything I get like that requires meto open it in Pages '09 to save to a .pages doc. Then I can get it open the new Pages. This needs to be fixed.

Support for importing & exporting RTF is just one of the many, many features that have been eliminated or changed. Leave feedback for the Pages team using the link in the Pages menu.

Making Word Default To Open RTF files

Is there any way to make Word the default opener to open rtf files instead of text edit?
Thanks!

Welcome to the Discussions!
In the Finder, select (but do not open) a file with the rtf extension. Then go to File->Get Info and, in the window that opens, look where it says "Open with" and select MS-Word. Be sure to select the box that will always do this if that is what you want.

Opening rtf files on a playbook

I purchased my Playbook in June 2011 and have nothing but disappointment. I need to open rtf files and I am unable to. I contacted Dataviz(Docs to go) and was told the RIM was responsible for the application on the playbook and RIM told me to call them. I just found out 5 min ago that RIM owns them.
I downloaded Files and Folders as it said it could convert rtf files to docs through google docs......it didn't work.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I changed my BB Storm phone plan so I could tether my playbook to it but thats a confusing pile of dung.
gmail keeps telling me that I lost connection so I just change to the desktop mode and its fine. Let alone the fact that its so slow its a waste of my time.
I commented to RIM all this as well as the fact that a task with a due date won't show up on my calendar on my Playbook but it does show up on my Storm. This still hasnt been corrected.
The concepts here are great its to bad that they don't work.
Can anyone help me. I spent a lot of money on this and am feeling that I made a big mistake cancelling my order for an Ipad. .

This may be old news by now, but the "File Converter" app for Playbook solves the rft problem beautifully. Simply convert to .doc, etc. http://www.fileconverteronline.com/blackberry/

To recap ... Bridge opens OK ... but when you select a file or image ... it starts 'Building Criteria" and then CRASHES.
Quit Bridge and find your user library (by default hidden per OSX 10.7, for quick reveal use menu Go and press option, this brings the user library in view)
follow this path: user(your username) / library / preferences and inhere find and delete the file called "com.adobe.bridge5.plist". Then in same library go to the folder Caches / Adobe / Bridge CS6 and inhere delete both the plugin and the folder called cache.
All files will refresh itself with new and empty ones as per first install. Now again hold down option while restart Bridge and again choose reset preferences.
This provides you wit a new Bridge that needs to recache the files again so this will takes a bit of time and also your custom wishes for the preferences should be set again.
Also consider using the Apple Disk utility or a maintenance application like Cocktail and choose check and repair permissions.
Then consider the upgrade to the last week released 10.8.3 using the combo update that you can find under support on the apple website instead of using the app store to upgrade to 10.8.3.

Receive error message when trying to open .rtf files.

I have .rtf files I am trying to open for school and cannot view them in TextEdit, Pages, Word for Mac, TextWringler, or Openoffice.org. I can open the original file but when I edit them I get this error when I try and open them:
"The document 'xxx.rtf' could not be opened. The file isn't in the correct format."
In smaller text below it:
"The file might be corrupted, truncated, or in an unexpected format."
(To clarify, 'xxx' is not ****. I replaced the actual file name with 'xxx' for this post.... just incase you were wondering)
I have also changed the extension to .txt and .doc and the best outcome I get is format code.
Any help?

Well I solved my problem.
What still doesn't make sense though is that dragging iTune audio files directly on to the iTunes application icon gave me the error message... which is why I originally discounted it as being a potential link problem. If I had been able to get files to open normally (i.e. without an error message) I would have known it was a simple link problem. Strange.
Anyway... relinking my folder of audio files did the trick.
If you don't already know how here are the steps...
iTunes > Preferences > Advanced > click on the "Change" button and browse to the folder that contains all of your iTunes audio files... that's it.

Photoshop CS4 extended 64bit crash opening CS3 files

Everytime i open a CS3 psd file in Photoshop CS4 extended 64bit the application crash after few minutes or seconds... this is very very very frustrating...

In PHOTOSHOP CS4 extended 64bit i think the problem is opening CS3 files containing text layer ...
I have done tests with
- a file with only background > apparently OK
- a file with a simply text layer > CRASH
- a file with a simply text layer and masked image > CRASH
- a file with masked image > apparently OK
all file are 640x480 72dpi RGB
The 32bit version don't crash but is to slow than CS3

Opening RTF file in Farsi characters/words are missing

In opening an RTF file written in Farsi - or English and Farsi - many of the letters/words are missing. If I open the file up in Microsoft Word for Mac the words are there, although left-to-right rather right-to-left. (Again Microsoft screws with us as Microsoft Word on Windows will do the right-to-left.)
The same missing letters/words are found in TextEdit.
Interestingly enough OpenOffice opens the file right-to-left with all of the words/characters there.
I did take this problem to a Apple Genius at an Apple Store yesterday and he confirmed it's a software problem.
My question is when will it be fixed and does it affect other right-to-left non-standard character sets like Hebrew.
Thanks. Rick

MsWord for Mac is pretty useless for multilingual support especially RtoL.
The same missing letters/words are found in TextEdit.
Did you export as Unicode text from MsWord for Windows, which has excellent RtoL support? See if .doc works.

Good question, all RtoL text in OSX is practically unworkable, especially when trying to edit it and any English text within RtoL. This is something I have been "offering feedback" to Apple since OSX came out supposedly with full Unicode and multi-lingual support. 10 years ago!
Right up to OSX 10.2.3 I was frankly misled by Apple (not allowed to use the 3 letter word here) who made out that I was doing something wrong (what an unusual approach by Apple!). Even then I did not get the truth from Apple but from a sympathetic developer.
Meanwhile it ruined my reputation with a few key clients and cost me a motza on the jobs I was doing for them.
The only working RtoL support you are going to get in OSX is [Mellel|http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/8712/mellel] . But my recommendation is to stick to MsWord on Windows where you will be able to do more in the way of layout.

Opening rtf file with images.

My daughter getting file from a teacher that are save as .rtf. These files have pictures in them. I can download them and open them to my MacBook Pro and open them in word and they preview perfectly. My daughters MacBook doesn't have Word, she only has Pages and TextEdit. When she opens the rtf file there are no pictures. Is there something we are doing wrong or is this a bug with Pages??
MacBookPro Mac OS X (10.4.8)

RTF handles pictures fine since version 1.0 of the RTF format specification, but for some reason Apple chose not to implement that part of the specification. They instead decided to go for rtfd as soon as pictures are involved.
The problem of course is that you loose compatibility with the Windows world, which cannot read rtfd, but, as you correctly point out, Word format works fine to transfer that kind of data.

Opening rtf files in Pages 09

I am having trouble opening certain rtf files in Pages 09 - version 4.0.3 (766). It opens some rtf files and not others. Can anyone explain why? Tell me how to fix this? Thanks!

Hi Peter,
Thanks for breaking me in easy on how this forum stuff works.
The files I am working with are from a CD I purchased which contains resources for a church. For some reason I am able to open a document entitled "2010-02-17.ash_wednesday.rtf" but not a file "01ash_wednesdaysermon.rtf"! If I double click on the first of these files, it opens in TextEdit. If I drag it to my Pages icon on the dock, it opens in Pages. If I double click on the second of these files, a window opens which reads: The document "01ash_wednesdaysermon.rtf" could not be opened. If I drag it to my Pages icon on the dock, it does exactly the same thing.
Since all the files on the CD I can open follow the same naming convention as the first one above and all the files on the CD I cannot open follow the same naming convention as the second one above, I copied the second one to my desktop and renamed it, but still got the same results.
Other than this, I don't know of any differences between the files. If I take them to a PC, all the files open just find.
Thanks

I can't open rtf files created using the 'touch' command in Terminal

I don't know much about CLI but I like to play with my tech. When I create an RTF file using
touch foo.rtf
it creates the file but when I try and open it, it just says "The document “foo.rtf” could not be opened."
What's the deal?

Answered Here on StackOverflow:
As you've likely discovered, touching a nonexistent file will create a zero-byte file with the name you specify. (touch is also used to update the modification time on an existing file. Seeman touch for further details.)
The problem you're running into is that though a completely empty file is valid HTML, text, or Markdown, it is not valid RTF—this is true of many file formats, actually, which are structured in a particular way and require some data to be present be valid.
Based on my experimentation, the bare minimum RTF file appears to be
{\rtf1}
If you'd like to create a blank RTF file from the shell, try this:
echo '{\rtf1}' >Foo.rtf
Note the above will overwrite Foo.rtf if it exists.
Thank you user Zigg

How can I open rtf files in pages?

I just bought a "New iPad" (iPad3)
I am am to succesfully sync .doc files from my MacBook running Lion over to pages on my ipad using itunes.
Then I can sucessfully edit the .doc files.
But when I try it with .rtf files, I can see them on my ipad, but it won't open them.
I want to be able to move all my documents over to my ipad, but I don't want to have to convert each file individually to a .doc just so I can edit them on ipad.
Thanks for your help!

based on what came before.
For iOS, what came before never supported .rtf.
For OS X, what came before did support .rtf, but Apple decided to reduce its features to those of the iOS version.
So Apple had a certain logic to what they did, it was just kind of backwards:-)

Textedit won't open .rtf files

My boss wants me to open some .rtf files and convert them to word documents, but when I try to open the files text edit says it can't open them. What could be wrong?

There may be something odd about them. Can TextEdit create and then read its own rft files?
Anyway, you may do better to download NeoOffice (free) which may do better at opening them and can save in MSOffice format.
