Downloaded bin files are associated with excel

I know that they should day open with application. How do I switch bin files to be opened with application instead of excel. I don't know what to select under the Open With: -> Other menu

I wish I had details, but when I try to open the file, either with
RMB-> open
RMB -> Open With -> StuffIt
Run StuffIt, and try to select the .bin file
Nothing happens.
I called Apple Care about the issue, and they said that my steps where correct ( finally ) and they sugggested I download the .bin file again to make sure I have the right type. I will try that.
Thanks for all the help again.

  • Since changing our computer I have been unable to download ebooks to my Reader Library I get a message Some file types associated with EPUB files are not associated with Reader Library; Waterstones suggest that I may have accidentally created a new Adobe

    When I try to download them from the Waterstones website I get a message saying:
    ‘Some file types associated with EPUB files are not associated with Reader Library.  Do you want to associate them now?  When I reply yes I get another message; ‘Configuration error unable to update EPUB files check network firewall and try again’.
    The ‘books’ are saved in the Download directory and I can’t transfer them from there to my E-Reader. I have not had any problems before, it was very simple; I saved the download and it automatically went into the Reader Library.
    I contacted HP and they said it is a software error and suggested I contact Waterstones.  I contacted Waterstones Customer Support and got the following response:
    As the error message is specifically mentioning the firewall it does sound like something in the firewall settings is stopping the download from taking place correctly. However, the files should not be being saved to the Download folder. It would be worth trying again by going to your Digital Order History on your Waterstones.com account and pressing the download button, and then making sure to press "Open" not "Save". When you press Open rather than Save it should give the option to open the file with Adobe Digital Editions. If the firewall message still comes up then I'm afraid something is blocking it on your end.
    If the above "Open" download method works but you then still get an error message it could possibly be that you have accidentally created a new Adobe ID when setting up on the new computer, rather than signing in with your old Adobe ID. It would be worth trying the aforementioned download technique again first, but if problems did still persist it would be worth calling Adobe themselves on 0207 365 0735, as they should be able to sort out any account issue.
      In response to the first para of Waterstones email I already do what they suggest I do press ‘Open’ not ‘Save’ but I don’t get the open with Adobe Digital Editions (we have installed Adobe Digital Editions on the new computer. Waterstones say we may have ‘accidentally created a new Adobe ID when setting up the new computer’ does that mean that we shouldn’t have installed Adobe Digital Editions on the new computer as it would have already been there? How do I sign in with my old Adobe ID? 

    Hi all after attampting to get some supoport from adobe by phone.... nice people infurating policys as far as support for digital editions or DRM is conserned... However I got no where with support.
    I ended up instaling Digital editions on my desktop PC and going through the motions of registering and borrowing a book then returning it. Then I trying on my iPad, Bluefire worked, Over drive did not so I completely removed Overdrive and reinstalled and re registered. all working now.
    Maybe some one at adobe did something. Maybe the install of the adobe DE client on a PC corrected what ever was out of wack with my account. Mayby the server that my account lives on did a scan disk and corrected a bad clustrer.
    What ever happend My account is actiove and working again. hope this helps others.

  • I keep getting the message: "what should firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

    I keep getting the message: "what should Firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

    cor-el,
    Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

  • Where should I store the collatoral files that are associated with photos stored in lightroom?

    Where should I store the collatoral files that are associated with photos stored in lightroom? Items such as pdf files, word documents, etc. How should I connect them to each other so I can find both the photo and the related data?

    Lightroom itself will not help you with pdf, word, etc.
    However, there is a plugin you can use called AnyFile which will allow you to manage these documents in Lightroom (by assigning keywords and other metadata) so that you can search for all documents (photos, pdf, word, music, powerpoint, etc.) with given metadata.
    Because you do this via metadata, it doesn't matter where you put these files. Put them anywhere you want.

  • HT204074 How do I see what devices are associated with my iTunes account?

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 contains this advice:
    Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days. You can view which devices or computers are currently associated, remove unused devices or computers, and see how long before they can be associated with a different Apple ID from the Account Information page in iTunes on your computer:
    Open iTunes.
    Sign in to your Apple ID by choosing Store > Sign In from the iTunes menu.
    Choose Store > View My Account from the iTunes menu.
    From the Account Information screen, click Manage Devices.
    Sadly, "Manage Devices" isn't actually there, so I can find no way of seeing which devices and PCs are associated with my Apple ID and how to delete or add to them.

    Manage devices relates to the devices or computers you have set up to automatically download content from your iTunes account aka "iTunes in the Cloud". You can have up to 10 such devices. This is a separate list from the list of 5 computers that can be authorized to play your protected content. There is no similar feature to list this second group, but when you get to 5 computers you can choose to deauthorize all and start again. You cannot use that feature again for a year.

  • The *.icc file is associated with PS process after assigning profile for a picture of CMYK mode ?

    Hi everyone, I have a curious problem for your help 
    My OS is Windows 7. Start PS and open an image, choose "Edit" -> "Assign Profile...", in the pop-up dialog there is a drop-down list showing many system profiles, and I find all of these *.icc files are stored in folder "C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color". Just choose any profile to assign, then go to folder "C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color" and find the related icc file, for example, JapanColor2001Coated.icc is for profile "Japan Color 2001 Coated". Now you can still rename the icc file, that is, the icc file is not taken by photoshop process. Our company has a software to generate icc files, however, when assign these profiles, the icc file is associated with PS process, which means I can't rename or delete the related icc file, even after assigning another profile, unless close the image documents, that is unwanted. So I'd like to know the reason, in fact I'm not very clear about the ICC file structure. I want to make the local disk file not associated with the process so I can do other operations.
    Any suggestion will be appreciated.

    I made a quick try and I can change the name of various custom profiles I've created using Photoshop but it appears that the name of the profile can't be changed if Photoshop was started with the profile in question selected as a soft proofing profile in View > Proof Setup. You have to quit Photoshop, just changing the soft proofing profile to another is not enough.

  • I recently received 2 emails from Apple informing me that my Id has been used to purchase games to download to computers not associated with my ID.  If I didn't initiate the download, I was advised to change my password.  How do  know the email is le

    I recently received 2 emails form Apple checking if I had purchased 2 games from the App store that were downloaded to computers not associated with my ID. They then advised me to change my password if I had not made those purchase.  How do I know that emails are legit?  I am afraid that they are scams to get my information by going on  to supply information.  I had checked my credit card just now and no transactions have been posted yet. Thanks!

    You can always manually go to http://appleid.apple.com and change your password there, to avoid any links from the emails.
    That's the only place you should use to change your Apple Id password.
    With that said, do you know if anybody may have used your Apple Id to download things? Like kids to a new computer or tablet?

  • SQL query to find all suites that are associated with automation

    I trying to incorporate CodeUI tests into a Release Mangement deployment template ... As a developer, I want to be able to specify a sub-tree of a test plan & only execute those test suites that are associated with automation.  Is there a way to
    extract all automated workitems and associated them with their respective test suites?
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

    John,
    I've partially resolved the issue of executing a sub-set of suites with the following powershell implementation:
    1. Extract "potential" suite paths from a XML configuration file:
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <Configurations>
    <Properties>
    <Property key="DEFAULT" value="SuitePaths" />
    <Property key="DatabaseServer" value="MYDBSERVER" />
    <Property key="DatabaseInstance" value="Default" />
    <Property key="DatabaseName" value="TFS_DefaultCollection" />
    <Property key="ConfigurationName" value="US - Windows 7 and IE 10" />
    </Properties>
    <Notifications>
    <Notification key="0" value="[email protected]" />
    </Notifications>
    <SuitePaths>
    <SuitePath key="0" value="MyProject\WebProduct\Student\Features\Login" />
    <SuitePath key="1" value="MyProject\WebProduct\Student\Features\Logout" />
    </SuitePaths>
    <AreaPaths>
    <AreaPath key="0" value="MyProject\WebProduct\Student\Features\Login" />
    </AreaPaths>
    </Configurations>
    2. Extract record set of suites from TFS via SQL query:
    # FUNCTION: Retrieve-SuitePaths
    # Parameters:
    # (1.) LogFile -- Name of log file (e.g., C:\Temp or C:\Temp\DEPLOY_DatabaseServer_WebCMS2_DF06_20131031.6.log)
    # (2.) Connection -- Database connection
    # (3.) Paths -- Hash table of suite paths
    Function Retrieve-SuitePaths
    param
    [Parameter(Mandatory=$True)][String]$LogFile,
    [Parameter(Mandatory=$True)]$Connection,
    [Parameter(Mandatory=$True)]$Paths
    Write-Output '--------------------------------------------------------------------------------' | Out-File -FilePath $LogFile -Append
    Write-Output "Retrieve suite(s): " | Out-File -FilePath $LogFile -Append
    Write-Output '--------------------------------------------------------------------------------' | Out-File -FilePath $LogFile -Append
    $SuitePaths = "("
    $Counter = 0
    foreach ($Key in $Paths.Keys)
    if ($Counter -gt 0)
    $SuitePaths = $SuitePaths + ", "
    $SuitePaths = $SuitePaths + "'" + $Paths.Get_Item($Key) + "'"
    $Counter += 1
    $SuitePaths = $SuitePaths + ")"
    # --DEBUG ONLY--> Write-Output "Paths: $SuitePaths" | Out-File -FilePath $LogFile -Append

  • Is it possible to change the acct. ID my songs are associated with?

    We had an employee that purchased a boatload of music with company funds - he has been terminated and we have the account ID and password. Is there a way to change the ID acct name? It is an e-mail address with his name and we would like to not be continually reminded of his tenure with us.

    Is it possible to change the acct. ID my songs are associated with?.
    No.
    I'm not a lawyer but one suggestion is to sue him for the amount of the songs and he gets the songs.
    Otherwise, just delete them.

  • Library files files are replaced with new files

    Almost everyday, when i start iTunes my library files are replaced with new files & then i need to replce the new ones with my backup set

    There are a couple of recommended methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer. Method one is to have two Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you two completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one.
    Method two is to set your preferences so that either one or both iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library. Have a look at this article and see what you think and go for whichever you feel suits your needs best: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
    Another option when using a single library is to set one or both of the iPods to manual update: Managing content manually on iPod
    Choosing the update option "automatically update selected playlists only" (called Sync Music - Selected playlists in iTunes 7) allows you to create a playlist specifically for each iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used by the other iPod. Make your playlist a Smart playlist and limit the size to just below the advertised capacity of your iPod ( for example, around 3700MB for a 4GB or 1800MB for a 2GB Mini or Nano). You can read more about playlists at these links:

    My wife and I both have MacBooks (I have MacBook Pro and she has Air) and both are associated with my apple ID since I bought them. However, this means that Safari is linked for both her and I as well as our contacts etc. Can I still use mine ID for apps for her but associate hers with her own ID that I have yet to make?

    Well with the MS Hotmail/Outlook.com account that is hard. But she should be able to link all of it to the iCloud system using her Apple ID.
    I suggest you do a Google search for "link contacts, Calendars, iMessage with iCloud".
    For some stupid reason MS has limited the syncing/linking of only emails and Notes with the Hotmail/Live Mail/Outlook.com system.
    They have not included any Exchange features for syncing all that info. That is unless you are using Outlook 2013 and that is only for Windows.
