Decompressing a .upg file

We have a Philips TV and need a software upgrade on it. Their support center
referred me to a downlodable fix that needs to be unzipped and transferred to a USB stick, then to the TV.
The original file I downloaded is a document with .upg extension. It can't be opened, and I haven't been able to assign an application to open it. The Stuffit Expander is see discussed doesn't support .upg that I can tell.
I have archived this file and can get it unarchived as a "unix executable file", but it does not transfer to the television.
The Philips support person assured me that the download could be "unzipped" on either a PC or a Mac.
Any Mac solutions before I call the TV company again?
Mac G5    

I think Philips may be talking out of their collective scart socket!
.upg files are firmware upgrade files. There should be an associated .EXE file that uses the .UPG file to install new instructions into the firmware. Many different hardware makers use this file type for upgrades. They all have different formats so there is no single way to handle this file type.
Various programs use this extension; too many to list individually. Take clues from the location of the file as a possible pointer to exactly which program is producing the file. The file's date and time can also help if you know which programs you were running when the file was written.
If it was a unix file it would not run in Windows.
An .exe file does not run on the Mac.
You need a lot more information from Philips. And so do they for that matter!

  • How to compress and decompress a pdf file in java

    I have a PDF file ,
    what i want to do is I need a lossless compression technique to compress and decompress that file,
    Please help me to do so,
    I am always worried about this topic

    Here is a simple program that does the compression bit.
    static void compressFile(String compressedFilePath, String filePathTobeCompressed)
              try
                   ZipOutputStream zipOutputStream = new ZipOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(compressedFilePath));
                   File file = new File(filePathTobeCompressed);
                   int iSize = (int) file.length();
                   byte[] readBuffer = new byte[iSize];
                   int bytesIn = 0;
                   FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(file);
                   ZipEntry zipEntry = new ZipEntry(file.getPath());
                   zipOutputStream.putNextEntry(zipEntry);
                   while((bytesIn = (fileInputStream.read(readBuffer))) != -1)

  • Pls help decompress jsonl4 bookmark file

    After one of latest Firefox update (think it was around version 32) the bookmark file was compressed as "bookmarks_<date>....==.jsonlz4 file. After an update the new Firefox was not able to retrieve the compressed bookmark. I hope that here is a way to decompress this file outside the Firefox and retrieve it either as json or html file or a file that is retrievable by latest Firefox (34).
    The file is found in the following location:
    C:\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\mvf52dyv.default
    bookmark\bookmarks-2014-11-01-15....==.lzh
    bookmarkbackups\bookmarks-2014-11-01_15_....==.jsonlz4
    The “mvf52dyv” is the from the old installation. The new one is tw145s6s.default
    To save it I renamed the “old” Mozilla directory to Mozilla_ before uninstalling and reinstalling a clean new version. Copied back the "old" jsonlz4 and "places.sqlite" to new "bookmarkbackups" directory but still no luck.
    One observation is that the new firefox (34 – just updated)) had jsonlz4 file and places.sqlite in a bookmarkbackups directory, while older versions has it at “<...>.default” directory level. Also, the new Firefox does not have bookmark directory, where the old one has in it bookmarks-<date>==.lzh file.
    I did try suggestion from the Firefox help pages to copy the old bookmarkbackups (with places.sqlite) into place of the new one, but that did not help. Even tried to copy the whole old mvf52dyv.default under new Mozilla directory, but this also did not work.
    Is this old bookmark lost for good or there is a hope to restore it? I will appreciate any help in restoring the content of the old bookmark.
    Regards
    Darko

    Thank you for the replay. With few attempts I was able to restore the “old” bookmark. Unfortunately, what I thought to be the old one has already been overwritten by an empty bookmark either during an update or one crash that happen around that time.
    The interesting thing is that this “old” jsonlz4 file has date in name bookmarkbackups-2014-11-1-..., although the file time stamp is 9-26-2014, which I hoped contain the old bookmarks. The Sep date led me to believe that this is the old bookmark.
    Can by any chance one of the two non-zero length files in minidump directory contain any sign of the lost bookmark?
    For my benefits, where are the bookmarks stored now? With few sites added in the bookmark, only saw the places.sqlite being updated (in Roaming\...firefox\Profiles\<...>default\places.sqlite*). Did not find any file with name bookmark.*. At one exit saw boomarkbackups …. jsonlz4 file being updated (time stamp).

  • Crashing quark/no boot cd's/no decompression of sitx files

    Hello,
    Running Dual 867 PPC G4 MDD w/ OS 10.4.11 w/ regular apple software updates
    System is used in graphic arts local network... has been stable for 18 months.
    Symptoms began several weeks ago... application Quark 6.1 would crash when opening files.
    These were normal files that had been regularly accessed for years.
    Other than regular apple software updates nothing new has been added to system, and no changes have been made other than normal permissions repair and disk maintenance routines using Cocktail 3.8.3.
    After the crashing started I ran all the normal tests/diagnostics/fix attempts including:
    Ran Disk Utility - Repair permissions
    Log out user, log back in
    Log in as different user
    Ran Tech Tools Pro 4.0 - all tests passed except surface scan which I did not run.
    Reloaded Quark several times.
    Reloaded Suitcase Fusion 12.1.2 (font application) several times
    Ran font diagnostics - all clean
    Reloaded OS from original disks, then reloaded applications (again)
    Tried opening Quark only without Suitcase (to eliminate font conflict)
    None of these attempts solved the problem... Quark still crashes... Sometimes when launching, sometimes after opening a couple of files, sometimes after opening up to seven files. However, all other applications on machine seem to be running ok.
    I have posted this problem to graphic arts forums and most replies seem to center around font conflicts or Quark preferences. However, the test of opening Quark without Suitcase should have eliminated the font issues, and reloading Quark should have eliminated the preference issues. Files will open fine on all other machines on network running same versions of Quark/Suitcase and using same font database, so it seems unlikely that it is a corrupt font.
    Two other things have happened since problem began:
    A downloaded .sitx file would not open and decompress, and the CD drive will not mount disks.
    Not sure what to make of this.
    Would welcome any clues.

    Update for anyone interested... problem was bad optical (cd) drive. replaced drive, quark crashing problem is gone. keep it in mind for future troubleshooting.

  • How to decompress unix archive files (.Z extension)

    Hi,
    I have successfully downloaded .Z file from net using urlConnection and InputStream class. Now I need to decompress that file. I have tried using java.util.zip package but it won't work.
    Please help.

    Hi, I am not shure that tar.gz and .Z files are the same. They are both unix compressed files, but there isn't a package specifically for .Z archives. There are packages for zip files, Gzip, tar but for .Z files I can't find anything :(

  • Decompressing a zipped file

    Are you using FAT32 file system? It doesn't support a file >= 2GB.

  • Compressing and decompressing a PDF file

    Dear Gurus,
    Anyone who can assist with the code to compress and decompress PDF file so that I can send it in an email.
    Thanks

    1) you should go to ABAP Printing forum where this problem has been discussed many times (for example remove the coloring to reduce the file size etc.). Just in case you would insist on working your way.
    2) You can create some printing "device" like smartform etc. to print your data for you and then convert it to PDF, the result should be smaller then option 1)
    3) the best one: if you want to send a PDF somewhere (or archive it etc.) you should start with Adobe forms, for you purpose Adobe print forms will be suffiscient. You only need to install and configure the ADS component to generate forms from the template for you. If you want to see a brief ovewrview about how to create this thing, start reading somewhere like here (this is not the most simple example!!):

  • How to decompress a pdf-file?

    Hello,
    I have a pdf file that is divided into squares with images, so I think it is compressed with acrobat pro or another program.
    I would like to know how to decompress it, so I can hopefully edit all lines and text on the pdf.
    Here a printscreen:

    Thanks!
    Gaël Goasmat.

    I don't think this is anything to do with compression (that is about making the file smaller, behind the scenes, it doesn't affect how it works).
    What happens when you try to make edits to the file? Are you familiar with the (very limited) Acrobat editing tools, or are you also trying to learn them for the first time?
    What version of Acrobat are you using?

  • Can't Open (Decompress) any ZIP files all of a sudden!

    Hi
    I've never had problems opening Zip files until a couple of days ago.
    All of a sudden I can't open Zip files from 2 different sources.
    I've tried downloading them in Safari and Firefox.
    I've tried the built in expander and I've tried Stuffit (latest version) and The Unarchiver.
    I keep getting error messages, usually saying the data is corrupted or that it was compressed with an unknown method.
    I got the original file re-sent to me several times (a purchase from a consumer website) with constantly the same result.
    Then today I received a different Zip file from a completely different source with the same result.
    My computer is up to date with all the latest Apple software updates.
    I've tried repairing disc permissions.
    Anyone know of this issue or have any ideas how to fix it?
    Thanks.

    To The Apple Discussion Boards!
    "I've tried repairing disc permissions."
    Did you restart your computer afterwards? If so, download a "zip" file. In the window that pops up, make sure *"Open With"* is selected. Make sure Stuffit Expander is selected or another utility that you want to open all your "zip" files.
    Option: Select +"Do this automatically for files like this from now on."+
    Click the "OK" button.

  • Decompressing LZMA .zip files always gives "System out of Memory" on AIR.

    AIR is supposed to support LZMA compression in addition to Deflate, but it has an error every time I try to use it. ZIPs using the Deflate method decompress just fine.
    aByteArray.uncompress("lzma");
    Should decompress the LZMA compressed data, but always just has a #1000 System is Out of Memory error.
    I have tried skipping the standard header in the zip that should be 2 bytes version info, extra properties length (n) and a filed of the length of n;
    Even when I do that, the same thing happens. I have tried deducting the LZMA header length from the general compressed data size in the ZIP header as well and that makes no difference. I am also above AIR 3.3 so that should not be the issue. I also tried setting a small 'library size' when compressing. LZMA is supposed to be "suited for embedded applications" so mobile devices should surly be able to handle it.
    The header with the 13 byte header i believe is only for certain stand alone LZMA formats, so that should not apply.
    What am I doing wrong? How do I make it work?

    No. I try and avoid cluttering my apps with extra libraries if at all possible. It may have a sizeable footprint when I only need a few things, and it might contain encryption stuff if it supports the whole zip specification, which makes your app banned from export to some countries apparently.
    I already have my app doing what I need it to do with the most common deflate method, but it simply would be a shame to not have LZMA support when it is built right into AIR. I would like to know what I'm doing wrong when I call uncompress with "lzma".
