Double clicking Illustrator (.ai) file does not open a file with opened app.

Hello,
I have an Illustrator CS5 (15.0.2) running on Windows 7 Pro. Here are the symptoms: when double clicking the Illustrator file once the application is already open, the file will not open. You will see an hourglass for a few seconds, but no file contents are displayed. However, if I were to close Illustrator application and then double click on the file, Illustrator will open the file correctly. Additionally, if I go to File -- Open and manually select the file, it also opens the file correctly. Only double clicking the file once the Illustrator application is already open does not work.
Has anyone seen this issue and knows how-to fix it?

Right click on a .ai file and choose properties, check to see what application is set to open .ai files. Try running in 32 bit mode.

Normal double clicking or apple O, does not open certain mp3's

I have a few mp3's that no matter what route I go, i.e. drag and drop, manual import through file menu, or double clicking on iTunes mp3's, does not seem to open certain mp3 files. It seems to be random as I can click ten and only one will not open in iTunes. They files don't however look any different or seem to have any major differences.
I can play the files that don't open however in preview, quicktime or logic, so why can I not import and play in iTunes? Any insight here?

Double Click ...folder does not open, any suggestions please

Hello,
A new problem surfaced today on Macbook Pro (Leopard) after I allowed the system software updater to run. Of course this could be pure coincidence as I did not notice the problem until working for half a day.
When I double click on a folder on the desktop it does not open.
So I Ctrl-click the folder and select "open." No problem, the folder opens.
Now when I double click on a folder within this folder it opens just fine. So the problem is confined to the desktop.
I log out and back in and the problem goes away, but comes back after I have been working for a while.
I disabled Spaces but it did not help.
Any suggestions would be most welcome.
Thanks.

I would say that this topic IS solved, unless the original poster was unable to use the solution (change the trackpad settings) successfully. I, for one, was able to, and boy am I grateful! This has happened across machines and operating systems for me, for years now, and finally I have a solution! Thank you for the helpful post(s) that helped me get my mac back on track!

Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Double Click on Tabe area does not open new tab any moee, why?

I just updated (bad word because it is a serious DOWN grade) to 29.0. What a terrible mistake. If I wanted to use Chrome I would use Chrome. This version of FF is total shit.
1) How do I get rid of that horrid big orange FF button?
2) How do I re-enable double click on tab bar to open a new tab?
3) How do I fix the navigation buttons (forward is ½ hidden under back)?
4) How do I restore the colors (theme?) to my previous settings?
5) Why is FF trying to be chrome anyway?

To clarify, the list of previously or later visited pages does still show up when I right click on the navigation arrows in the Developer Version, but I cannot open any of the links in the list in a new tab with the mouse wheel or "Ctrl + Left Mouse Click".

Double Click on Keyboard shortcut does not work

I want to change a keyboard shortcut. I have a Norwegian keyboard and the key combination for change active window in an application (multiple mail messages or Word documents) is not available. The Keyboard shortcut is set to ' - on my keyboard the ' character is <. The key combination < does not work unless I change layouts to a US keyboard. Keyboard shortcuts says that a double click on the shortcut will allow me to change the combination. This does not happen. I get an error bing instead. Any ideas of what is going on and how to change a shortcut in Leopard. I think this worked in Tiger. I have tried a hardwired as well as my bluetooth keyboard.

Solved this one - you have to click on the key combination itself and not in the text area that describes the key combination.

Double click on slider triangle does not reset to default

When using 1.3.1 with Vista, double clicking on the slider triangles in the Develop module does not return the settings to their default values in the case of magnified images(1:1 say). It works fine when the image is not magnified and also works fine when using XP. Have other people experienced this problem? Are there any fixes?

Solved this one - you have to click on the key combination itself and not in the text area that describes the key combination.

Save File: Does not save my file to the chosen location

When the window pops up for the save location of a file, select location, and save. Navigate to the save location and the file is not there. cannot find the file via a search. Also does not remember last save location, but there is not entry in the about:config to set lasDir. 29.0.1.

Assuming you are saving the file in a normal window (not a private window), can you use the download history to locate the file? Either click the arrow on the toolbar or press Ctrl+j, then assuming the download is listed, click the folder icon at the right side to open the folder containing the download. Any luck?

Exported video file does not match audio file in length?

I'm back with the same problem.
Here are the specs for this project:
Premiere Pro 5
Footage shot in HDV 1080i (Sony FX1)
Edited Timeline length...52:25
Destination: Blu-ray disc
I have tried both formats in the AME...MPEG2 Blu-ray and H.264 Blu-ray
I have tried every combination of Presets within these two formats...Match Attributes, 1440x1080i, HDTV....etc, etc, etc
The machine is spending anywhere from 7 hours to 27 hours to encode these files.
When I open the two files after the operation has finished, I find I have an audio file 52:25 in length and a video file 43:34, no matter what format or preset I have chosen!
Upon playback, you can imagine the frustration...within the first two minutes the two are out of sync.
What am I doing wrong here.
This is my first sortie into the HD world of Adobe. I've been doing Adobe Premiere SD for 10 years...and my deadline for the closed captioning is coming way too soon.
I appreciate any help you might offer.

Jim...Yes! I just did that this morning in frustration and by golly, they are both the same length. There is a note in the Project window after I copy to "Timeline" that says the video file is unencoded! Wierd! Another problem popped up in that the video and audio files are in different sequences in Encore. I cannot get them to play together. One will play and not the other...? I can't seem to drag them to the same sequence.
But, at least they are the same length! Mysteries in this HD business.

EasyDMS - Uploading file does not fill in file description

Hi,
We have been having this issue for a while and are on the latest version of EasyDMS. When we upload a file into DMS, the file description is not filled out.
The way we got around it initially was to create an event in swetypv of DRAW CHANGED and set the description with a bapi call. We decided that is not a good way to do it now. What other options are there? Is there a user exit where we can set it?
Thanks,
Josh

Given the very recent release of Photoshop CS5, graphics card developers are all scrambling to make the features Photoshop relies upon actually work. There are new updates daily or weekly for many of them.
Check with ATI directly. Don't assume the latest Photoshop-compatible driver has been uploaded to the Windows site. What version are you running? Unfortunately you're going to need to get into this in more detail.
For now, as a workaround, try disabling the OpenGL settings in the Edit - Preferences Performance menu. Does that fix the problem?
Edit: I just looked over on the ATI site... I don't see the video interface you have listed in any of the lists. Is it old? If so, this is another reason to try disabling OpenGL.
