Executable has become associated with TextEdit

Basically I have a program that I am trying to execute, but for some reason (probably my own screw-up) it has become associated with TextEdit. So now, when I click on the program launcher it opens up the machine code in TextEdit. I know how to change file associations via the Get Info menu item, but how do I remove an association?
I haven't had any luck searching the discussion groups for a solution, although I am sure that it is there somewhere.
Thanks for the help.
Mac OS X (10.4.4)

TextEdit is set as the default.
Automator, Automator Launcher, Script Editor and Other are the options. If I change the default app to something else like Script Editor, it tries to open the app with Script Editor. I don't see a way to reassign it as an app.

I have been searching every other day for over a month trying to find a fix in Windows Safari with no joy. I want to resolve, not switch browsers. Please offer up a solution that only refreshes the Top Site thumbnails once a day or as some controlable interval. Started about two versions ago, now on ver 5.1.5. Windows 7 64bit.
Safari 5.1.5 for Win64 bit, Windows 7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I solved the wifi connection problem, just by switching off completely the router! sounds trivial, but in this case it worked!!!
the funny behaviour of the trackpad/cursor still persists. any suggestion???
thanks again

What does it mean when you get a pop up notification saying that a phone number has been associated with your iTunes account? And what does it mean when I don't know the number that is associating with my account? Should I be worried?

I got a notification stating that a number has been associated with my now old iTunes account and it is a number I do not recognize. Should I be worried at all?

Yes, if you don't bother to change your password. You may also want to seriously consider turning on two step authentication.

Your request cannot be completed because your Apple ID has been associated with too many credit cards.what is that mean please tell Apple

Please help me I don't know what is this mean : Your request cannot be completed because your Apple ID has been associated with too many credit cards.
And you tell me what to do?

New one to me, you might try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support

My apple id has been associated with a number on one of my family members phone how do i forget this number from my mac

my apple id has been associated with a number on one of my family members phone how do i forget this number from my mac
so this basically means that my iMessage is receiving texts form there friends because it is set up to get and send texts from this number

Use a different Apple ID for iMessage on your Mac. To do this, open the Messages app, go to Messages>Preferences, on the Accounts tab select your iMessage account on the left sidebar, click Sign Out to the right, then sign back in with a different Apple ID.

How to execute a JavaScript associated with an interactive field?

I need to perform a virtual click from a plugin. Let's say that a set of 3 check box/radio button fields have the export values:
- Yes
- No
- Maybe
I have a script that says that the user virtually clicked on the "Maybe" button. All I have to do is find which of the radio buttons:
radioButton#0
radioButton#1
radioButton#2
contains the "Maybe" export value. So far, this task is very doable. My question is how to perform the following:
I need to call the JavaScript interpreter and execute it, using as an argument the JavaScript code associated with the up mouse even of the button.
Any help will be most appreciated...
TIA,
-Ramon

IF you are trying to do this from a plugin - I would just use Cos APIs to get the appropriate JS from the field's action dictionary and then pass it to AFExecuteThisScript().

I have changed my iphone number (not the model) and it has become disassociated with my pc. How can I reassociate it having removed the device from my Apple account

product - PC Toshiba satellite pro Windows
Iphone 3 Model MC603b/a
PC and Iphone were previously successfully associated. I have removed the device from the PC but cannot reconnect it

Call AppleCare, because, according to Apple, removing the devices from your support profile should have fixed this issue. You can also try changing your Apple ID password, but given what you've done, I doubt this will help.

Ssi files have somehow become associated with a different site

I have a site where I use two ssi files for a menu and for a sidebar. Somehow I have managed to associate these two files with a different site, so that the includes don't show up in design view and live view.
When I hover over the includes in the Related files bar, it shows the path to a different site, where these files don't exist.
When I click on them in the Related files bar, I get the yellow bar, saying "'menu.html' is not on the local disk."
When I click on "Get", I get the message "menu.html is contained in multiple sites. Please open the site you wish to work on and select this menu item again:"
I have tried deleting the site cache as well as the .dws file for the site, but to no avail. I suspect that the problem is inside the .dws file, but it's not possible to edit it.
I should add that everything works on the server, it's a local problem. It doesn't prevent me from working on the site, but it's pretty annoying. I'm using DW CS5.5, Win 7.

I have now tried the following things
Overwriting the .dws file with the one from my laptop
Deleting the WinFileCache
Deleting the site (via Manage Sites) and recreating it
Done a sitewide search in source code for references to the other site (nothing found)
The reference to the other site is still there.
So I wonder if there's any other file that DW creates that can hold this reference?

This computer is already associated with another Apple ID

Hi people!
Please excuse me if I described anything not exactly as it may appear on English systems but Spanish is my language of choice.
At home, my boyfriend and me share a Macbook Pro and we have a user account for each one. In each account, each of us has an Apple ID with their music or apps purchased. Problem is, I can't login and download my purchases or use iTunes Match because the computer is already linked to another Apple ID, I guess that is my boyfriend's account.
Can't we use our respective Apple ID in our user accounts? If I wait for 38 days and then I use my account, will he be able to use his, or will he be "punished" like me? This is cumbersome. I've tried to solve this with Apple Support but never could finally arrive to a solution with them. Thanks for any hints.

iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 - In connection with, "When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID." "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." - Additionally instructions for "Removing an associated device or computer from an Apple ID"
It's done that way because the media owners who can tell Apple what to do don't want people going around to their friends' houses and downloading all their iTunes music on the friends' computers too. If you're going to share a computer make sure you avoid doing the things listed above that will cause this message to appear. Keep a backup of your purchases on an external drive.

Livetype files associated with Photoshop in timeline

Over the past week some of my livetype files in the timeline have become associated with Photoshop rather than livetype. By this I mean that when I right click and choose open in editor, they try to open in Photoshop rather than Livetype. They also show in the timeline as the same shade of bluey green as an image file would.
The file extension is still .ipr and within the Finder the file is still set to open with Livetype. If you get the item properties within Final Cut on the files in question (Right click, item properties, format) there type shows as a "Still". The ones that open correctly in Livetype show as a "Clip".
I made all these files at the same time one after the other so I can't see why 3 have come out wrong and 7 have come out right.
Anyone have any ideas?

Right I have just realised what has happened...
In livetype the files durations (In and Out Markers) have all changed to 0.1 of a second instead of the 10 they were originally set to when I created the file.
Now thats solved does anyone know why this has happened?

I have been blocked from my own ITunes songs because my apple ID associated with too many devices

I cannot access songs from my own iTunes Apple ID because it says my iPhone has been associated with too many devices. I have to wait 90 days to access my own songs on my iPhone. Here is what happend:
1-Our family moved. So, with the address change, the credit cards on all of the apple ID's would no longer work because the other users had our old address. (I have 4 users in the family).
2-My family started calling me while I was out of town complaining that purchases were rejected. This was because our address had changed and it no longer matched.
3-I tried to walk them thru the process of changing the home address on the credit card, but they couldn't do it. They assured me that they were doing it correctly and were still rejected.
4-So, being the techie of the family, I simply logged into each of their iTunes accounts from my iPhone while I was out of town and made the address change. While I was in their accounts, I noticed they didn't have automatic downloads and iTunes match and stuff. So, I changed it so it would work for them when they logged back in.
5-I go back to log into my own account on my iphone and I cannot access my own songs on the iTunes cloud for 90 days!!!! This is quite disappointing.
How can I get this corrected? I tried to reset user settings (not a erase and reset). I figure it's not my phone, but my iTunes account thinks I'm doing something sharing-wise.
So, in summary, when I am on my iPhone and I go to my iTunes library and click on a song (that I have paid for) with the cloud and down arrow beside it, it's rejected. It says that I have too many apple id's associated with this device and I must wait 90 days. It counts down each day.
I just want access to the music I paid FOR!!

Thank you-I will contact support.
No, I cannot wait 90 days.
Let me restate what I have to endure, even though I own the music and have paid for iTunes Match:
I cannot access my purchases-zero-at all
I have to listen to never ending McDonald's latte commercials and progressive insurance. I have now banned both of those annoying businesses and will not make purchases there.
In summary, I have given apple my minded, and have zero to show for it.
Ps-you get to hear the McDonald's "love hate commercial" every 2 songs on iTunes Radio. I have substituted the words where I hate McDonald's and love when the commercial is over.

My iphone gives me the this device is already associated with an apple id whenever i try to redownload or a watch a tv show i just bought. Help?

Hi corbi111,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The resource below will explain the alert you are seeing.
Manage your associated devices in iTunes - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204074
When you turn on iTunes Match, Family Sharing, or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, that device becomes associated with your Apple ID. You can associate your Apple ID with up to 10 devices, with a maximum of 5 computers at any time. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. You don't need to authorize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
After you associate a device with your Apple ID, you can't associate that device with another Apple ID for 90 days.See your associated devices
You can see the devices associated with your Apple ID in iTunes on your Mac or PC:
Click to open your account in iTunes, or use these steps:
Open iTunes, choose Store > Sign In, then enter your Apple ID and password.
Choose Store > View Account.
Click Manage Devices in the iTunes in the Cloud section. If you haven't associated any devices with your Apple ID, you won't see the Manage Devices section.
Next to each device, you can see when it associated with your Apple ID. You can also track how many days remain before you can associate your device with a different Apple ID.Remove an associated device
To remove a device or computer from your Apple ID:
Click to open your account in iTunes, or use these steps:
Open iTunes, choose Store > Sign In, then enter your Apple ID and password.
Choose Store > View Account.
Click Manage Devices in the iTunes in the Cloud section.
Click Remove next to the device that you want to remove.
When you remove your Apple ID from a device, the 90-day limit stays in place on that device. But you can associate your Apple ID to another device that doesn't have the 90-day limit. Depending on when you associated the device, you might need to wait to associate it to a new Apple ID.

I want to change my primary email address, and use one already associated with my account why can I not do this ?, I want to change my primary email address, and use one already associated with my account why can I not do this ?

I want to change my primary email address, and use one already associated with my account why can I not do this ?, I want to change my primary email address, and use one already associated with my account why can I not do this ? I don't want to create another one if I really don't need to
Any ideas ?

I'm afraid that once an address has been associated with an Apple ID you can't re-use it in any way. You will have to create another address (such as a free on from GMail or Yahoo for example).
