Downloaded, file won't open. Downloaded again, still won't open.

What can I do to get it to open? Is it a problem with my firewall or what?

some pdf files open just fine, but this particular file (and a few like it) will open the Reader but the reader comes up with an error box that says the file is corrupted or not a compatible file, as shown here:
I get this file from my download folder which gets it from a link in an email (from a trusted site I subscribe to)--been getting this file (a 'zine) for years and never had a problem with it. I think the error coincided with an update/upgrade to the reader a few months ago. Last month's issue didn't work at first, but later when I tried again it opened fine...there are a few other files I get in a similar way which also seem to have a problem. I've tried turning off the Reader security stuff but no joy....

I bought a canon EOS Rebel T5i. It came with photoshop elements 11. PS won't open my C2 raw files and says my camera isn't supported by the software I have downloaded 7.4 dng converter and I still can't open the files. What do I need to do?

You need camera raw 8.4 for your camera, if it’s Digital Rebel T5 EOS 1200D EOS Kiss X70. It is not compatible with PSE11; so it’s a bit odd if that software was bundled with the camera except that it will work with jpegs. I suggest you download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will editable in PSE11(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)

You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

Safari can't download file when trying to download movies

Safari responds with "safari can't download file' when I use download app to download movies . I don't have issues downloading apps or searching net. Would be grateful for assistance.

You can't download something from Safari to your iPad. iPad is a closed system, and not subject to virus intrusion. Now, if for example you have a Kindle app and you go directly to Kindle in Safari and using your ID you buy a book, the book will download to your Kindle account, which you could then open your kindle App on your iPad and read the book you downloaded in your App. But you can't go into Safari and just download a book or a movie directly to your iPad from the net........

Downloaded Camera Raw update 6.2 but still can't open raw images

I followed all the steps as indicated on this page: Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.2 update but for some reason I still can't open .CR2 files . My camera (Canon Rebel T3i) is on the list of supported files. What should I do? I'm using Windows and I have Photoshop elements 8.0.

You need camera raw 6.4 for your camera. It is mot compatible with PSE8. You need to upgrade to PSE13. Alternatively, download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in PSE8 (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)

HT3775 My file is an mp4 and it still won't open in quicktime

any suggestions?

What happens when you try to open it, do you get any message?
Choose that file and "Get Info" (cmd-i). Under the Open with section, which application is chosen to open the file?
Choose QT and try again.
It's also possible that the file is corrupt. Do other mp4 files open normally?

.download files not clearing after download

Hi,
When I download a file using Safari, the ".download" file that is created temporarily never goes away when the download is complete. I have to trash it manually.
I am on 10.8.2 and Safari 6.0.2 but as far as I can remember this has been happening since Lion came out. When I went to Mountain Lion I wiped the drive and did a clean install, still happens.
Only happens on one of my Macs.
Anyone have any idea how to fix this? I have "Remove download list items" set to "Upon Sucessful Download" and I have Open "safe" files checked. I switched to "When Safari Quits" briefly but that did not make a difference.
Thanks
Dave

Hello Cor-el,
I went to Tools>Options>Privacy and it is checked off as you indicated/noted...
I will check out the URL downloads+windows later this week...
ZoneAlarm will not work with the latest Firefox versions 14 (or earlier ones)... so reverted to an older version of Firefox and ZoneAlarm... and it works! Aside- it is ANNOYING to click on latest version upload for Firefox and then get a screen showing what software is not compatible with that version. So I needed to remove the latest Firefox version and ZoneAlarm.. and re-install both.
No need to use Firefox 10.0.6 ESR because I am a small home user and not a big organization?
Thanks for your help, I will have to make the time this coming week and look into this further.

P.S. The files are still not downloading and saved?

How do I re-enable showing the download files history in the download manager window?

System: Windows XP
I am trying to re-enable showing/retaining the list of downloaded files in the download manager window. I want to be able to drag and drop directly from that window into a folder of my choosing. (I used to be able to do this, but apparently I messed that up...)
I have tried the suggestions that could easily be found, including setting Firefox to remember all history in the Privacy tab of Options.
I also deleted the mimeTypes.rdf file to "reset" the browser defaults, but to no avail.
Any ideas/help?
Thanks.

By the way, a few other things you probably know:
(1) The setting to keep the downloads list displayed after a download is here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > General
Check "Show the Downloads window..." and ''uncheck'' "Close it..."
(2) You can always show the list by pressing Ctrl+j
The mimeTypes.rdf file isn't particularly relevant to this problem; it affects what application Firefox uses to open a particular type of file.
However, there is a database file which stores your download history which might be corrupted. You could rename that file and have Firefox start building a new one.
(1) Open your personal settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder
Help (or Alt+h) > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
(2) Switch back to Firefox and exit the program (e.g., File > Exit)
(3) Wait a few moments for Firefox to finish updating files in your settings folder, then rename '''downloads.sqlite''' to something else, like downloads.old. Alternately, you can delete the file.
(4) You're done with your profile folder and you can restart Firefox now.
Any improvement?

I downloaded Itunes 7.0.1 and itunes still won't open

Neither iTunes 7.0.0 or 7.0.1 will open for me. Basically, I install everything without any errors, go to run the program, get the windows thinking hourglass for about 3 seconds and then nothing.
I can get 6.0.5 to still work but I can't access the music store and I haven't been able to since a week before they introduced 7.0.0. I am so frustrated with Apple and iTunes right now...
-Patrick

I actualy was able to fix it. Here is a copy of the post I put up about fixing it:
Ok, like many of you, I was also getting iTunes to hang when plugging in my shuffle, and it would just sit with the spinning beach ball. Even after an hour, it was still frozen. Well, I just fixed mine.
I went to check the Library File to see if it was too large or something, and I found my Music folder wouldn't open, and when it did it showed 0 items, yet iTunes was still playing songs. So I ran TechTool Deluxe on it (it came with your APP if you bought one). Anyway, it found Volume errors on the music drive. So I backed up the music folder to another drive, and let TechTool repair the errors. When it was done, I ran it again, no errors. I then opened iTunes, plugged in my shuffle, and it instantly grabbed new songs via Autofill and sync'd. So, I think the iTunes installer is causing errors to the volume, which is causing the hang ups. TechTool was able to fix the errors, and now iTunes runs fine. Hopefully that will help a few of you get yours working again.
For the record, I store my music on my secondary internal drive, and keep the library in my user folder on the boot drive. After running the fix, everything appears to be just fine, and from what I can tell I lost no data.

Windows Media Player, since installing Firefox 4 I cannot click on a link in my website to play a video. I have gone through the procedure for downloading the new plug in and it still won't play this is the link I downloaded from

http://www.interoperabilitybridges.com/windows-media-player-firefox-plugin-download
I then shut down firefox and tried again the video is enbeded in my website as an .asx file. It concerns me that others cannot see it either.
It is also a link in my email
It was fine in previous version of firefox

Sorry to hear about your problems. For a long time I and a colleage were having an issue with our MBP's. When we closed the lid, we thought it was going to sleep, then and hour later when you opened it, it would be all hot and the battery was drained etc. Turns out it wouldn't go to sleep. For a while we remedied the problem by going to the apple menu and hitting sleep then shutting the lid, but after some process of elimination, it turned out that a little freeware app called Desktopple that we used in presentations and etc. . . was the culprit. as soon as I took that app off, Both of our machines started sleeping like babies!!!
Morale of the Story! Sometimes it's a 3rd party app causing the problem.
Desktopple worked fine until one of the OSX updates happened, then it started causing this problem. My suggestion is that you disable these small freeware type apps one by one until you find the source of the problem.
I have a hard time believing that you were given 3 lemons in a row. It's gotta be something that your running.

I have lots of downloaded files but since last week none of them will open.

There is some kind of glitch going on with Firefox because a Gmail setting also won't work with it whereas it does in IE. But everything else seems OK except the downloads. It's as if all the files have been grayed out. They don't respond to a double click or to the open option on right click.

Great to hear. Good work.
Windows does not have a viewer for the clipboard as such, except to
paste the current. However there are third party programs that can
let you view or even save entries made to use later.

I have downloaded files that Have the firefox logo but can't open them?

I download digi images and svgs from blogs...but i cant open firefox files..have Windows7 Premium

What happens if you open such a file in Firefox via File > Open File?
SVG files are XML files, do you see the source code of such a file?
What kind of files are those digi images?
If they are JPG or PNG image files then make sure that they have the correct file extension.

I cannot connect to my camera at all. I have tried turning it off then on and downloading all the camera apps but it still won't work. My iPod doesn't even give me the option to use anywhere.

My iPod doesn't give me any choice to access the camera. I have tried sownloading a camera app and restarting my iPod but when I had the camera app the screen just turned black. Any idea what's going on?

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order
