Download and run binary files

When downloading an exe file firefox only gives choice of saving file and not a choice to 'run' file without saving it.

That has always been the behavior for Firefox, it is a security feature to prevent the spread of malware/viruses from accidentally being run.
You can try the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/10902/ OpenDownload] add-on, but I don't know if it works with the beta builds. To install that add-on you may need to install another add-on first. The [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/15003/ Add-on Compatibility Reporter] add-on is designed to let you test add-ons that are not shown as compatible with the latest beta to see if they work.

  • Downloading and running files

    Hi there,
    I am wondering if I can develop a ac code to download file
    from my secure server and run the file into the local PC using
    Adobe AIR application with Flex. I have notice there is
    FileReference.download() method; however, this method displays the
    box to ask the user where to save the file. What i need to do is to
    download the file in specific location i would decide the location.
    Is there any way i can do this with Actionscript 3.0.
    thanks for your fast reply.
    Samer Issa

    Due to security restrictions, you cannot download a complete
    file to a directory of your choice. The
    FileReference.download()/upload() does not allow the programmer to
    access the nativePath information, even if it is an AIR
    Application. It's pretty much all black box.
    The option you have is to download the file into binary data,
    then save the file from the data. This is a very tricky thing to
    do, but it is along the same idea as dragging and dropping a
    picture; you're able to save data from flex onto the local
    filesystem.

    I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file readers as well, and for some reason they won't work either. I have 5 computers running top end processors and RAM. By this I mean I have one, this one which I am using that has an AMD Phenom Black 3.2 Quad-core with 8 GBs of Corsair top DDR2 RAM, my other two AMD have either an Athlon II triple core with 4 GBs of DDR2 Corsair RAM, one with the Phenom X4 965 3.4 GHz Quad-core with 8 GBs of their best DDR2 RAM, and two Intels with the i7 920 Processors using the triple channel 1366 socket processors and one with 8 GBs of low latency DDR3 RAM and the other with 4 GBs of the same RAM. I am getting the message on this one, which has a fresh install of XP Pro X64 operating system, as do the other 4 as well. I have run Avast Business Pro Anti-virus on this one, which I am getting the message on with a single result which I deleted, and also both Spybot Search and Destroy, which came back clean as well as Malwarebytes Antimalware, which got a lot of tracing cookies now removed, and SuperAntiSpware which also found a few cookies also now deleted. Can you tell me what I need to do to get these files to show as .pdf files rather than as a clean blank page. One other issue is that I wish to know how to turn off my downloads so they are saved and Mozilla will give me the option of returning them instead of me losing them all together as it does now. Thanks for your assistance. If there is another Adobe reader I should download and install, could you provide me with the link to it? I appreciate your assistance here
    == When I download and try to read a .pdf file and when I am asked to turn off all Firefox files and if I do, I lose them since I need to know how to save them without rebooting my computer.

    Brilliant! Problem solved! Thanks so much.

  • How to Get In & Out of Match, Get your Downloads and Run

    How to Get In & Out of Match, Get your Downloads and Run 
    So you have read the marketing hype, and are thinking what you really want is to pay for the service to upgrade your low quality bitrate files to a bit better 256KBPS rate easily, as don’t fancy rebuying/ reimporting or other method
    This guide should show you the fastest route to achieve you upgrades
    It assumes you’re working from your main music library, and know something about IT, and have <25k of music files
    Backup your music files
    If you know how to do this, its simple right – so once done then move to step 2, if not read below so you don’t blame me for a loss
    Transfer Hardware
    your choice the transfer hardware, suggest offline harddrive via USB3.0 (blue USB connector/eSata/ 1494b/1GB NIC/etcetera but your call
    If you use USB2.0/ 100MB NIC/1394a or other lower transfer method, accept the time hit
    Don’t use Time Backup/local disk backup software unless you have RAID 5 setup or better (and if wondering what that is, you almost certainly don’t then)
    Don’t use  internet backup service unless you live next door to the hosting company, with stunning internet connection to envy 99.9% of the human race, remember this is the fast method folks)
    Transfer Software
    I am assuming you know how to do a copy n paste/ robocoby/xcopy/drag n drop or whatever method turns you on via finder/explorer/cmd window ect
    Caveat #01: If not sure how to do above, then stop now as you are not IT literate ready for this
    Find your music files and back them up
    Now keep the computer running, preferably with nothing else running from this point for ease of use bar an active internet connection, and power saving switched off
    If you know where the files are great, backup the files, but some don’t so for them as below
    Caveat #02: if you don’t know how to find them your most likely on default settings, or sitting with a legacy from a past upgraded machine - below should help but you might want to stop now if you have never been curious about the location before
    Within iTunes , go to [Edit/Preferences/Advanced] and note down the location shown for Itunes Media Location
    In the same location of preferences, hit [Keep iTunes Media Folder organised] and let the application do its stuff.  You will end up with the location in 1ciii a ready to copy location which for simplicity of topic, copy the whole folder and its subfolders.  You may end up with some extra copies of music files (an iTunes safety mechanism, but it won’t show in the folder location, and we can ignore later on)
    Enable Match (after paying for the service)
    Run Match
    Accept that the Apple iTunes process is not perfect, may crash/stop/pause and reboots will be needed, and we can move on so to speak. Key here is you cannot do an unattended script or assume no end user interaction needed L
    Turn on iTunes Match, notice the new ITunes Match on the left hand sidebar, click it, then hit the Start button – if it works and you eventually get to STEP 3 perfect.
    If it fails before getting to STEP 3, reboot and restart
    If this still fails to get to STEP 3, then create a new iTunes database (browse forums on how to do), read your media files from the location in 1civ
    Stop MATCH  (the upload process only, not the service)
    Once STEP 3 starts, CLICK STOP - ASAP, as all this does it upload data, and you don’t want to do this, just get your upgraded files (remember the title of this entry your reading!)
    This also avoids future issues with Album art lost
    Delete Matched low bitrate files
    Create a NEW SMART playlist, with two criteria
    Show all files with bitrate is less then 256
    Show all files where iCloud status is MATCHED
    In the new playlist, click it and it shows the files we want to blow away. 
    Click Edit / Select All then
    Click ctrl in windows/apple  (cmd) logo in mac, and press delete button, ensuring you do NOT tick the delete from iCloud Option.  Now want a few mins for it do do its stuff.
    Download Upgraded BitRate Files
    In the same location as 5, reselect all, and right click, and select the option to download all, and off it goes
    On the lefthand sidebar in iTunes, click Downloads, and you will then see in the middle bottom screen an option for simultaneous downloads (select it)
    Your done Just let the app now do its stuff. I would ignore the message saying you can get on with other things, and use anther machine, preferably not using the same internet connection.
    Optional Steps:
    Click randomly from the Itunes/Matched/256KBPS listed files, and play them.  Not all the files, one every 30 or so, and just the start, then last few seconds to check not dead or corrupt files.
    Update your Step 1 backup with the new files, which is going to take up more space, guess at 40%.
    Kill your iTunes Match account (both the recurring automatic subscription, and  the account if not continuing to use the store part of iTunes)

  • Flash Player update 10.3 unable to download and save flv files

    Hello,
    Since the Flash Player update to 10.3.183.10 it is no longer possible for me to download and save *.flv files. A file of only 2320 kb is saved along with a meta file of 1 kb. The 2320 kb file has a flv extension but the file will not play in any of my media players. Files of mp4 type still download and play fine. The problem only occurred following the last upgrade and even though I uninstalled then reinstalled Adobe Flash Player I cannot overcome the problem. My PC runs MS Windows Vista Home Premium Version: 6.0.6002 Service Pack 2 Build 6002. Browser Internet Explorer 9.0.8112.16421.
    Your assistance would be much appreciated.
    Dibloc

    Thank you.
    The problem only occurs when downloading flv files from YouTube. For all video downloads I have been using RealPlayer and experience no problems when downloading flv files from sites other than YouTube.
    Have been able to download these files now using the site http://www.savevid.com/
    Perhaps YouTube are blocking the use of RealPlayer from downloading flv files?

  • Can i download and run itunes from an external hard drive

    can i download and run itunes from an external hard drive?

    The iTunes application should be on the boot drive but you can keep the iTunes library on an external.
    hold Shift when launching iTune sand select Create library and select the external.
    This will create an iTunes folder on the external with all the library files and all media will also go into this folder.

  • How to open and read binary files?

    How do I open and read Binary files?

    Did you  look on The Unarchiver's web site where it has a link to older versions? http://theunarchiver.googlecode.com/files/TheUnarchiver3.2_legacy.zip
    The best thing to do is ask your friends what programs they used to produce these files, or at least what format files they are producing.  Otherwise it's like being shown a car and given a bundle of 200 keys with no idea to which one to use, or even if any of them work with that car.
    Using The Unarchiver will likely not do anything because it too will not know what format files are involved, and they may not even been in an archived format.  If they sent you a Word file without telling you (a favorite of Windows users to do  -- it drives me crazy when they could have just sent them in plain text), The Unarchiver won't open them.  If it's a picture file then using Hexedit will just show you a bunch of unintelligible stuff as shown in an earlier post, though you may see a line of text providing a hint.
    As I said earlier, often .bin may be an executable program which needs another program to actually interpret it.  That's what Java is trying to do.  Still, it may think it can execute the file, but it is highly unlikely somebody would send you an executable program (and if they did I would not trust it).  For all you know it may be a Windows virus.

  • Where to download and manage video files at...

    I take most my videos on my iPhone 4 now. I notice I can download them in iPhoto. They then show up in iMovie.
    #1 - are they working off the same database/same files or is it copied over into iMovie?
    I just purchased Aperture 3. It is supposed to work with video files.
    I also do use a handheld HD video recorder on rare occasions, but haven't used it in a while to be honest.
    I was pondering all this and am wondering the best way to manage my video. I use Final Cut Express for most of my video editing, although I do now use iMovie some since I purchased a macbook pro.
    So I'm all over the place, I suppose. iPhoto to download, iMovie for some editing, FCE for editing, and now Aperture enters the picture.
    I'm not sure if Aperture works off the iPhoto library or if I have to download it separately into Aperture.
    Somewhere in this mixture, I guess I'm wondering the most simple direct way to manage my video files. What method should I import my video files: iPhoto? iMovie? Aperture? or does it matter? Do they all access the same basic structure of files or do they do their own thing and copy from one source to another?
    And if I'm going to mix files from my iphone and hand held HD, I'm wondering the best way to basically download and manage video files.
    Suggestions appreciated.

    Saving into iPhoto certainly works. If you save it there, iMovie can access it, but iMovie will not duplicate it.
    You should have the option in Aperture to have Aperture be the default application and if so, your videos would be there. Once again, iMovie can see them and edit them without duplicating them.
    However, to me, the most straightforward way would be to import the movies directly from your phone into iMovie. Then you can use all the library management features of the iMovie Events.
    To do this, I would open the Image Capture Utility and plug in your iPhone. You should see the iPhone listed as a device in Image Capture. Right click on this device, and select iMovie as a default application. It has been a while since I did this, so that is approximate, but it should get you there.

  • Why can I no longer download and read .pdf files

    I have never had any problems downloading and reading .pdf files until I 'upgraded' the Adobe reader to version 11. Now all attempted downloads fail because "I don't have the necessary helper application or even C:\DOCUME~1\Will-o\LOCALS~1\Temp\Back Channel II - The Vietnam Betrayal - Chaps 1&2.pdf could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences. What in the world is going on and how do I fix it?
    Under 'Tools - Applications - Adobe Acrobat Document, the I've selected 'Use Adobe Reader.' However since I also have Adobe Acrobat 8.3, I've tried substituting that for the Reader, but that doesn't work either. Please help.

  • Can TestStand open, read, write and close binary files?

    From a TestStand sequence, I need to open, read, write and close binary files. Does TestStand support this capability?

    Christine -
    In the past I have used the C/C++ Adapter to call directly into the CVI RTE functions. The CVI functions I have used are OpenFile, WriteFile and CloseFile. The functions are exported from the DLL as CVI_OpenFile, CVI_WriteFile, and CVI_CloseFile. I just had to make sure that on termination of the sequence, that the integer handle was properly released by calling the close function.
    If you are using LabVIEW, you could call directly into the low level VIs to do a similar set of operations.
