Csv file type opens as text, no entry in Applications

When I click on a CSV text file link, it opens directly in Firefox. But I have no entry for it in Applications, and what I want is for it instead is to open a spreadsheet application. Since you can't just enter an action directly in the Applications preferences, how might I get this to happen?

That happens if the server sends the file as text/plain. You can check the in Tools > Page Info > General<br />
If that is the case then you will have save that CSV file and open it in that spreadsheet application.

  • How to force checked out CSV Files to open in Excel and not in Notepad

    Hi,
    I'm looking for some pointers / direction.
    .CSV files on SharePoint 2010 document library opens up in notepad by default. I did the DocIcon.xml CSV entry, changed the MIME type in IIS and did the IIS reset. Also on client computer CSV file is associated with MS Excel 2013. Now clicking a CSV file
    opens it up in MS Excel.
    Now a user checks out a CSV file and the same user clicks on the CSV file, the file is opening in notepad! If other users clicks on the same checked out file (checked out by the first user) it opens up in Excel for them. I've tried the 'Edit in Microsoft
    Excel' from the pop up menu but with same result.
    How can I force a checked out CSV file to open in MS Excel?
    Thanks

    1. Highlight one of the images and press cmd+i (or right click and select "Get info")
    2. Click the dropdown menu and select Photoshop (you might have to click "Other..." to find it.
    3. Then click "Change All" button below.
    You're going to have to do this with every different TYPE of image (e.g. jpeg, tiff etc) but once you've covered all the types you won't have the problem again.
    Hope this helps!

  • How to set file to open with the latest entry?

    My "sent" file always opened at the latest entry showing the last email I'd sent but, for some unknown reason, it now loads at the top of the file showing the earliest entry. How do I get it to go back to showing the latest entries, the bottom of the file, rather than the top of the file?

    Click on the header labeled DATE to sort on that column. Click the same header a second time to reverse the sort.

  • Double quotes missing in CSV file but exist in text file from AL11

    Hi I am sending a file to AL11 with one of the fields having double quotes Like "field value" . When i download into Text file  i am seeing the quotes but not when download as CSV file from Al11. Any SAP notes for this . If i add  multiple quotes ' """" ' to have in csv I am seeing more quotes in text file which is not accepted . Please reply if anyone worked on this before . Thanks Kamesh

    The CSV file also has the quotes (check in notepad), but when opened in MS Excel, Excel has a feature to ignore double quotes and consider the comma inside the quotes as part of field, not as a field separator.

  • Have file save dialog configure csv file type

    I am saving a program recipe file in csv format.
    I can save and retrieve the file without problems.
    What I would like to do is have the save file dialog box show a file type of *.csv instead of the default all file types *.* and then depend on the user to enter file.csv
    Does anyone know a way to do this programitically?

  • PDF File Type 'Opens with' ignored

    We have systems with both Acrobat 8 and Reader 9.1 installed.  On those systems, double-clicking a PDF file opens the file with Acrobat 8, even though the 'Opens with' setting under Folder Options -> File types is set to Reader 9.1.  Why is our instruction being ignored?  How do we make the system use Reader 9.1 to open PDF files?

    If you are on a Windows machine, maybe this is one of the reasons why it is recommended not to install both Acrobat and Reader in the same computer.

  • Is there a way to make a mobile number clickable in an inDesign PDF document, that will open a Texting or Instant Messaging Application?

    Thoughts are to allow groups of individuals mobile numbers to be shared across larger organizations, from within a PDF document, that the mobile numbers would be clickable, and open up a Text or instant messaging application on either the computer, tablet, or smart phone, for instant communication.

  • Create multiple pdf files and open them at once from java application

    I came across a very unique problem , i am hoping some one could help me out with that .
    I am using itext to create pdf files , i have filtered some records (preferably i can say around 90) which has the option to open pdf for individual record.
    Now i need to open all the pdf's of filtered records on a single click , without asking for a open dialogue box.
    Can anyone give me an idea how to go about this ??

    The simplest thing I can think of is to call Desktop.start() for each selected file wich will start the defaut application registred for the file type in the users system for each selected file. In this case it depends on the associated program and/or its configuration if it starts a single instance showing all the files or a separate instance for each file. The beauty of this method is that you don't need to know what reader application the user has installed nor where it is located on her hard disk.
    The other option that comes to my mind is ProcessBuilder. There you could set all selected files as parameter list to the call of the viewer application.
    This also does not asure that all files get openned in the same single instance but the chance is much higher. At the down side you need to know what viewer application the user has installed and where. Also: when speaking of 90 files you most likely rung into a limitation of the maximum length of the systems command line.

  • Changing the application that a file type opens with

    I have MSFT Excel and Subethaedit installed...
    I want Subethaedit to open all "*.spad" files
    I go to "Get Info" then go to "Open with:" then choose Subethaedit
    Then I press "Change All...", a dialog pops up and asks if I want to apply the change to all documents of the form "*.spad", and I answer "continue" and then...
    It ignores me; it drops Subethaedit from the list of apps to "Open with" and doesn't change the default format.
    How do I force the type to change to the app I want? Is there a text-file I can munge somewhere?

  • Excel opens when i command a .csv file to open with numbers. How can i get numbers to be my default application?

    I am sharing a Macbook Pro with my girlfriend. She runs Microsoft Office Excel for her work and I perfer Numbers in my work. Logged into my user account, I command an email attachment (.csv) to open with numbers. Excel launches every time. I can open numbers first. Excel still launches and opens the .csv document. i tried to trash the excel in my user account, no go. any suggestions?

    Hi joric,
    In Finder, right click or control click on the document and Open With > Numbers.  You may have to navigate from Other...
    Or, a permanent solution:
    In Finder, click once on a .csv document to select it. Get Info (command i) Towards the bottom of that info window, is Open With. It probably shows Excel. Change it to Numbers. Again, you may have to navigate from Other... Then click on Change All.
    I can open numbers first. Excel still launches and opens the .csv document.
    Are you opening from within Numbers (File > Open)?

  • PS CS6 files not opening and text acting funny

    In the last day my copy of PS CS6 has been acting up.
    Firstly, when I started going to modify text that was already there by clicking on it with the text tool, the text would change to the text from another layer. For example, if I went to modify the text on layer 3, it would be replaced by the text on another layer such as layer 1. And this kept happening with every text layer.
    Secondly, now PS doesn't open any files for me. When I go to open an image or PSD file, I get a big white screen where the document should be. I can see the layers in the layer panel and PS doesn't crash but I can't see my files now.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • LR cant see xmp files unless opened as text file then saved.

    Hello I have spent the entire day trying to solve this and I finally found a fix but not the cause. I have tried all the typical ways to sync/read/render to see the xmp data in LR. I spent 3 hours with tech support, and posted on several forums.
    After all of this I found the only way for me to see the xmp data is to open the xmp as a text document then save it go into lightroom read metadata and it shows up. This obviously isnt a workable solution for thousands of files so I need to find a cause.
    So a little info. I'm using LR5 on a windows. I edit clients images then send them the xmp files with those edits. I have one client thats photos when imported do not show metadata or develop adjustments. This is the only solution I have found to see the info. I believe they are using LR 4 and a MAC.
    Is it possible that the problem is the original files are saved on a mac then transfered to my windows machine.
    Please any help would be appreciated.

    what I'm saying is before I save the file, if i do read metadata it doesnt see anychange or info from the xmp. No little arrow. After I save it The arrow shows up then I can do read metadata and it works properly.
    Gotcha. Begging the question:
    A. is there a problem with the data.
    B. is there a problem in Lr
    C. both
    If there was no operator error when posting the before/after files, then the answer is B.

    open preferences, open spotlight preferences, click the privacy tab. Drag the folders or drives you want spotlight to leave alone into the window.
    Spotlight is an annoying application that is constantly cruising your system for no good reason that I can fathom, but it must have some use. When spotlight is looking at your media files, you are dead in the water for fcp.

    If your excel version is unable to open this format, you can convert from 4110 to 4103 with report RSCP_CONVERT_FILE.

  • Problem with finding correct application to open a .csv file from Downloads

    Hi Guys. I've been a Mac user for some time now but have only just found this forum! Anyway, I've downloaded a .csv file to my Download folder but when I click on it to open it I get the "Can't find an application etc. " message. When the dropdown "Choose Application" menu appears it wont choose (ie the "Open" button won't enable). What is a .csv file and what Application would open it (if I can get the thing to choose one in the first place?)
    Your help would be greatly appreciated. (BTW the file comes from my Paypal history if that helps.)

    A .csv file is a standard text file which typically contains data of some sort.
    CSV stands for Comma Separated Values.
    You could open the file using TextEdit, or a Word processor... but the content of the file might look a little strange and it won't be easy to read.
    Your best bet is to import this .csv file using a Spreadsheet application such as Microsoft Excel or other.
