Droplet doesn't open file...

Hi,
I have done a script that works well.
I created a droplet from it, but when I drop a file on it, Photoshop launches BUT the image doesn't open...
What could be the reason?
Thanks for your help

I don't really understand...
I created a Script first
I created a droplet then with File/Automatization/Create a droplet
(sorry I translate in English my French menus so there could be wrong menu names here)
There is no problem with accented characters
But spaces block the process...

Why can't I open and retrieve my files from iPhoto and my address book after importing the files from my Power mac G5 to my new Mac Pro? I get a warning that says the new OS on my Pro doesn't open files from a Power Mac. Any idea how I can fix this?

For your addressbook, export the files to vCard on the PowerMac, then bring them over to your Mac Pro. For your iPhoto, copy the Users -> yourname -> Pictures folder to your Desktop on the Mac Pro, and open iPhoto on the Mac Pro holding the command and option keys. Select the library file from that Pictures folder and open it. It should import all the pictures into iPhoto as part of the rebuild process.

Preview: double-click doesn't open files AFTER they have been modified

Since a few weeks (maybe since I upgraded to OS 10.6.6 ?) Preview doesn't open files any more by double-clicking AFTER I have modified and saved them. They open when I drag them to the dock icon of Preview.
For instance, photos downloaded from a camera open by double-clicking them. However, if I rotate or crop them and then save, Preview doesn't open them any more but shows two subsequent error messages: (1) "The application can't be found", (2) "The operation can't be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error code -43)".
I found one workaround: when you close and reopen the folder in which these files are, they open again by double-clicking.
Quicklook works fine.
Looks like a bug in OS 10.6.6. Any other fixes?

In the Finder, select one of the image files you want to open with Preview. Choose "Get Info" from the contextual menu or the File menu. In the "Open with" section, choose Preview from the pulldown menu if it's not already selected. If it is selected, choose another application (any other), then re-select Preview. Click the "Change All" button and close the dialog.

Textedit doesn't open files. I think I have an old version, version 1.1. How do I update it?

textedit doesn't open files. I think I have an old version, version 1.1. How do I update it?

What OS are you on?
Are you certain it is not compatible with this OS?
Is there an error message presented?
What type of file are you trying to open?
TextEdit is a built in app, shipped with the OS, it can't be downloaded from the store, have you copied TextEdit from a backup or is it trying to run from a backup disk or other copy of the OS - Spotlight can sometimes find & try to run other versions. Eject any backup disks & retry.
Try opening directly from /Applications (the Finders 'Go menu > Applications' will take you there).
If you need to restore the App you will need to have it in a backup or use the OS installer.

InDesign tries, but doesn't open files on server.

When using a finder window to open CS3 and CS4 InDesign files from our server, I get the opening effect but not the open file. I'm using Snow Leopard on a Mac. Double-clicking will not work, dragging the file into the application icon will not work, only the File > Open menu does the trick and opens the file. Note: double-clicking and dragging into the app icon does work for local files. Any fixes for the server file issue? Thanks!

i have this problem too at random, i click on the indesign cs4 file in the snow leopard finder, indesign actually makes that temporary whatever it is in the finder but the layout pages don't open. my workaround is to quit indesign and start again and this usually works. but i am wondering if there is any other solution? when the file doesn't open it doesn't help to try to open it through the file menu. so i just quit and start again. (this may be a feature of indesign since sometimes at random the font sizing buttons don't work.)

ICal doesn't open files (my own music files) when an event's time arrives.

Hi apple community, I have a problem. I use to remember things by creating events in iCal with a music file added, but now I can´t, I have updated my iMac to Mavericks and iCal only remembers me an event but doesn't open the songs (with iTunes). (Some times I use events with music files to wake me up jejeje). How can I solve it? Thanks.

I'd like to comment too here. I used to wake up all the time to music played in iCal, and before 10.8, I also used Applescript iCal events (all of this on my late 2011 Macbook Pro) in place of automator workflows. Since updating, my alarms simply haven't gone off, iCal not opening iTunes the way it should. I would be eager to find a solution.

Dreamweaver CS6 doesn't open files

Hi Forum,
I have installed DW CS6 from the cloud on my Mac. I have exported the sites from DW CS3, and then imported them in CS6.
After first time installation, none of my files would open after double-clicking on them ( I allways got the 'design-notes', even if I have switched it off in the site preferences). I could only open them by using right-click -> Open with Dreamweaver
After deleting DW6 and re-install, opening works with one site, but when switching to another site, the same anoying issue happens...
Design notes pop-up and the document doesn't open, only when using right-click -> Open with Dreamweaver.
Looks there is some kind off cache somewhere which is corrupted, but thats only a wild guess.
Please help, because for the time being I am switching back using DW CS3.
Regards Will

Hi Nancy,
its Mac OS X 10.8.2, and all associations are ok. ( Double clicking on a file in the Finder works ok ).
In the meantime I have found the problem;
After deleting the folders of the sites in Users/<name>/Library/Application Support/Dreamweaver CS6/en_US/Configuration/SiteCache, and restarting Dreamweaver, all works ok.
And again, thanks for helping !
Regards Will.

Adobe Illustrator CC 18.1.1 doesn't open files with "cmd O"

Mac Pro (begin 2009), 2 x 2,26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 12 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC, NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512 MB - OS X Yosemite 10.10.1
After having updated A.Illustrator CC to latest version I'm not able to open files by using "cmd O" and it's impossible to update linked files.
Please note that A.Illustrator CC has been updated also on my Mac Pro Book and works perfectly.
Could you please let me know where is the issue?

Fettone,
You may try the list; you may consider going straight to 6).
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Using JSP to run batch file - command launches excel but doesn't open file

I have written a jsp on a server which runs a batch file. Every command line in the batch works fine except the following:
CALL "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Excel.exe" C:\Temp\spreadsheet.xls
I can see that a command prompt has been opened and an instance of Excel has been created, but it does not open the file.
I tried running the batch file on its own. It worked fine. I tried putting the java code in the jsp into a java class, that worked okay too. I think it might be to do with the fact that the client is trying lauch the application through the web, but it's missing some information such as paths.
I am totally running out of ideas.. please help

I guess if I know JSP stands for Java Server Pages..
I would most probably know it runs on servers.Yes, you might, but if you were assuming that the path you gave would always lead to an executable running on the client you'd have a problem. It's worth asking.
I must admit it's probably not the best idea, but if
you can give me some advice on that, that would be
greatJSPs shouldn't have code in them that doesn't pertain to view. I'd wrap something like a system call or Runtime.exec in a Java Bean that you can test off-line without the JSP. Then have the JSP instantiate an instance, invoke its method, and display the value that's returned.
You've read this, of course:

Everyone who uses Runtime.exec should.

Pressing 'O' in mini bridge review mode doesn't open file in Photoshop

New Photoshop user here and going through the basics.
When using Review Mode in mini bridge I can cycle through the images using left/right arrows and open the image in front in Camera Raw using the 'R' key, but pressing the 'O' key does not open the file in Photoshop as I understood it was supposed to. Am I missing something obvious? Pressing the 'O' key does nothing at all.
Using Photoshop CS6.
Thanks for any tips!
-Daniel

Gene,
Unfortunately this did not do the trick.
I've got the exact same issue on two systems, both Windows 7 based with fresh installs of CS6 and Lightroom 4.
Spent a good 45 minutes on the phone with Adobe support and they are scratching their heads as well. For now looks like using review mode in mini bridge would be a great way to open up files you want to work on, but in reality it doesn't work. The tech I've dealt with at Adobe is having the exact same issue as well.
Not quite ready for primetime...

Double-clicking doesn't open files or programs

I just got a new macbook. I've updated the software and everything seems to be working fine, but I can't open anything by double-clicking on it. When I double-click a folder, it becomes highlighted, but nothing happens. When I double-click a file (any extension), it highlights the name as if I were trying to rename it. When I double click an application, nothing happens. To open anything, I have to right-click and select "open."
I can't figure out how to reset whatever this is. Any suggestions? Thanks.

The problem is the same with an external mouse, as well
Are you an experienced computer user, or just using a computer for the first time? I mean you've successfully double-clicked on another computer before : )
I'd keep testing with the mouse for now to keep possible trackpad issues out of the picture.
Look in Apple Menu/System Preferences/Keyboard and Mouse and try adjusting some of those settings. Do you have left button and right button reversed? Does changing the double-click speed help? Are you using a Mighty Mouse and clicking in the middle, not over on the left as you should?
Have you installed any RAM yourself -- try going back to the factory RAM and making sure it's fully seated. You've actually shut down and restarted the computer (not just put it to sleep)? Is the computer really hot -- try turning off, letting cool a half hour, turning back on and see if it works at first.
If all else fails, you can try wiping the hard drive and reinstalling the entire system. If that's too complicated for you, or doesn't work, bring the computer in for an exchange (first 14 days) or warranty repairs.

[solved] Nautilus doesn't open file list?

I installed Arch on this computer about two weeks ago. After that, I wiped all the other partitions off and dedicated the whole computer to Arch. In both cases, I installed Gnome for my desktop.
In this new installation, the Places tab doesn't work as expected. If I try to open any location except Computer, I get a kind of unhelpful "find" dialog box. In the past, all my bookmarks (Documents, and a couple of Windows shares I get to via Samba) opened up the same, with a list of files in that particular directory or share.
The only thing that is different this time, and that might pertain, is that after I got the Arch base system and Gnome running, I installed OpenBox and LXDE. I haven't actually used them, but I put #'d-out entries in my .xinitrc just in case I wanted to experiment at some point. PCManFM -- which I think came in with LXDE, right? -- acts more like I've come to expect from Nautilus, with the exception that it doesn't seem to recognize Samba shares.
Is it possible that LXDE "seized some rights" from Nautilus? Is there a .conf file somewhere I could look at? This isn't a showstopper, but I've gotten used to certain behavior in Gnome over the last couple of years (I arrived at Arch mainly via Ubuntu) and I'd like to get it back, or at least learn from what happened.
Thanks,
Eddie

Okay, I just removed everything I could find that was associated with LXDE and/or Openbox, and Nautilus is back to normal.
I'm rather surprised that there would be that kind of interference; I'm used to Windows stuff stealing rights from each other, but I can't say that ever happened to me in Linux.

Google Chrome doesn't open files with any applications

Hey all,
After downloading stuff, it is desirable to open the files downloaded; however this is made difficult on my Arch system because Chrome doesn't know what to open the files with, nor does it ask.
I'm using SLiM, xmonad, and have a rather minimalistic set up.
Secondary to this, Chrome cannot determine by itself whether it is the default browser application.
I don't know where I could provide this information to Chrome, Can anybody help?
Thanks

Illustrator randomly crashes in the middle of a project and sometimes doesn't open files properly?

Hi,
So I'm using Adobe Illustrator 5.5 on a relatively new Dell PC with an uprated graphics card.
Illustrator randomly crashes on me when I'm in the middle of projects saying (Adobe Illustrator is not responding) etc and closes. I lose my work and all the effort I've just put in.
Also, sometimes it will not open a file, says it's unsupported? But then when I close Illustrator and re-open it, the same file will open perfectly fine.
Is this an illustrator bug or is there something wrong with my hardware?
Thanks

Clicking JPEG icon launches Photoshop but doesn't open file

I run an IMAC Power PC G5 with Tiger 4.11 and recently did a system "archive and install". My JPEG files can only be opened within PhotoshopCS with Command+O. Double clicking an icon from the finder launches Photoshop but does not open the file. Neither does dragging icon on to application icon in the dock.
I ran the disk utility to verify and repair preferences and repair disk.
I reset "Launch Services". Then, I trashed "Adobe Photoshop CS Settings" and relaunched the program -- no change.
Other files (ai, pdf, etc.) open fine. I'm only having trouble with PhotoshopCS.
