File associations in Flash PPC

Attempting to associate a .swf file to Flash but
unsuccessful.
I installed Flash Player 7.0 for Pocket PC on my IPAQ 3955. I
then placed the .swf file into my storage card. It is a small flash
app that was created for Pocket PCs.
Anyways, I get the error Header XXXXX.swf "There is no
application associated with "xxxxxxxx". Run the application first,
then open this file from within the application.
My question is where do I find the file to open the
application or is there something else I can do to associate the
file to Flash.

Or else, you could try this:

I am not the developer of this tool and don't get royalties
from it, but
this question comes so often, that I think this might be the
easiest way for
people to play SWFs on their device.
That is actually an idea for Adobe.
Create a player that also work as a standalone application
for SWFs. This
might make it more popular.

Win 7, .flv file association to Flash player

I lost the association for my .flv files, it should be a simple matter to indicate that they should open with adobe flash player, but I can't find the application!
I have the pathway "C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash" which contains the following files: "Flash10d.ocx" ,"FlashUtil10d", "FlashUtil10e_ActiveX.dll", "install.txt" and the uninstaller, none of which are suitable to open the .flv files. The .ocx file isn't an application and Win 7 can't open these files with that association and the "Util" files are adobe flash helpers.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled repeatedly that's all I get in that folder. I can open some Internet files which require Flash and the adobe page indicates that the Flash play7er is successfully installed. . . it's just the link to the .flv files.

To be clear, the Flash Player does NOT open a .flv file directly. You can create or get a Flash Application that can load and playback .flv file.

SWF File Association

I wish to change my existing SWF file association from Flash
Player 6 to Flash Player 10. I know how to do this but do not know
the title of the file and location to make the change.
Thanks, Sam

After not being able to find any information on fixing this, I tried some of my own solutions, and this one works.
To fix broken swf file association
Open Windows Explorer...Tools...Folder Options...File Types
Scroll to swf and delete it
Try to open an swf and select IE and click ALWAYS USE THIS PROGRAM
IE will try to open the file, click CANCEL
Go back to File Types and scroll down to the new swf entry
Click Advanced
Click Open under the actions box and click EDIT
In the Application used to perform this action: box type the following
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS5\Players\FlashPlayer.exe" %1
(assuming you installed flash in the default location)
In the Application: box chance IEXPLORE to FlashPlayer
Click OK...OK...Close
SWF's will now open with the flash player!

File association in xfce4

I am wondering how file association works in xfce4.
Examples: After emacs was installed, xfce4 wanted to open all kinds of files in a new instance of emacs. An .scm scheme source code file was opened in StarCraft Map Editor An .xml file was opened in winebrowser, many many instances of winebrowser were opened, stole all cpu time and I had to kill the X session. An .mp3 is opened in gxine. (I think gxine has a horrid UI, I use it as an opera plugin.)
In the right click menu I can choose between gxine or vlc or audacious. "Open With Other Application" > "Use as default for this kind of file" is an option too, but I rather have this information accessible in one conf file. Now is there one somewhere?

Yes, there were relevant files in ~/.local/share/applications/ I was staring right at them and didn't see. Anyway I don't understand them and their syntax well enough to edit them yet.

This one looks better, but isn't it a bit short? (Neither opera or conkeror will actually play the .swf I know I have to fix that somewhere else.)
File type, as thunar shows it, seems to be another thing and the cmd "file" shows yet another type.
/etc/xdg/xfce4/helpers.rc are just 3 apps and I'm only using 2 since I don't use a mail app.

No matter if it's a Mac or a PC, FireFox refuses to refresh Flash files. Updated Flash files are showing up as old,out dated, Flash files. Is there an issue with the Flash Player PlugIn?

I have created a simple Flash menu for use on multiple site. They all access the same flash file. My original flash file only had a few links and tabs. The new one has more links, and a "LIVE" button at the bottom. But in Fire Fox, those that saw the original can not see the updated version in FireFox. They see it if they use Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera, etc. This issue comes up on all operating systems. This issue only occurs with FireFox. I've tried clearing FireFox's Cache but that doesn't seem to be working either.
The Flash File can be found on the left side at this link:

Your server file handling has nothing, and really nothing to do with Adobe software. If files don't get locked for (over-)writing and/or lose connection to the program opening them, then your server is misconfigured. It's as plain and simple and that. Anything from "known file types"/ file associations not being set correctly, MIME types being botched, crooked user privileges and file permissions, missing Mac server extensions, delayed file writing on the server, generic network timeout issues and what have you. Either way, you have written a longwinded post with no real value since you haven't bothered to provide any proper technical info, most notably about the alleged server. Either way, the only way you can "fix" it is by straightening out your server and network configuration, not some magic switch in Adobe's software.

Change file association

Hi,
Does anyone know how to globally change the file association of a file type.
I work with Adobe Flash which uses actionscript (.as) files (text files). I've recently started using Eclipse which is a Java IDE and an actionscript plugin (FDT).
For some reasons it's saving out my .as files as something different. They still work within Flash but not with Apple's quicklook...
In the terminal I've noticed that 'file' returns 'Java program text'.
eg.
$ file Main.as
Main.as: UTF-8 Unicode Java program text, with CR line terminators
This is the same within all user accounts on my machine... however on another another Macbook it returns,
UTF-8 Unicode English text, with CR line terminators
Any idea how I can convert all my .as files to 'English text' so that they work with Quicklook.
TIA

Sorry I misunderstood your question earlier.
I did a little research into how QuickLook works. Different file types are handled by "qlgenerator" files (which are actually packages). You can install new ones in /System/Library/QuickLook or /System/QuickLook. The default ones live in /System/Library/Frameworks/QuickLook.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Generators .
Each qlgenerator contains an info.plist file that appears to define which file types it handles in the CFBundleDocumentTypes property. I'm not sure what format they're in, though, because they look like "com.apple.rtfd" and "com.microsoft.word.doc".
Text.qlgenerator is the one that handles text files and others that TextEdit can view (such as rtf and doc). I bet you could make a copy of it into System/Library/QuickLook and edit its info.plist file to handle your file type(s).

Pushing a file association change?

Does anyone know how to go about issuing a change in file association to remote clients, either by commandline, an applescript, or MCX record?
I recently installed Bean wordprocessor for use in an elementary school, however the documents default to textedit when I launch them. I would prefer not to have to touch all these laptops if necessary.
Any means of changing file association via ARD or Server would be appreciated.

File associations in Windows 8.1 for applications on a network location

Hi,
From Windows 7 to Windows 8 it has been done alot of changes regarding file file assocations. It seem that the main reason was security and was "patched" by having Windows read the hash for the applications instead of where the application was
located.
but there seem to be some major hicups and there is limited info on the web covering these issues.
First issue: when running: Dism /Online /Export-DefaultAppAssociations:\\Server\Share\AppAssoc.xml and then creating a GPO configuration pointing to
thi XML file. With this feature only common file extensions is supported and when users are changing to another computer, these settings is not possible to syncronize using roaming profiles.
Second issue: In the appassoc.xml file applications must be either appid(metro app) or common application on local harddrive to be registered and not a .EXE
file on a network location.
It seems a little strange if this is the case and if there is no other options for administratos to set file associations in more flexible ways. Does anyone have some more info on
this topic other than these link:

https://keithga.wordpress.com/2013/11/13/file-associations-in-windows-8/

Hi Primeid,
You could use Group policy for file associations or you could deploy the xml file during image deployment. However as you mentioned that the file associations only applies to common application on local hard drive or metro app.

We understand your confusion about this, but we hope you understand that using network location for file association deployment is highly insecure and it is out of our recommendation since the content in that network location could be changed without any
notification or permissions constraint.
Thanks for your understanding.

File Associations in CS 5.5 for Win7

I preordered CS 5.5 Web Premium and just installed it. I also uninstalled my previous version Adobe suite (CS4). Now none of the file associations have been made for any of the Adobe related file types. So for example, psd files are now associated with quicktime. When I try to change the file association (set it to PhotoShop) it does not allow me to do so. It acts like nothing happened. What can I do? Do I need to uninstall and reinstall?

I have exactly the same issue affecting InDesign and Illustrator. Photoshop had the same issue but it allowed you to set the default program. It seems the only way to do it is to open the program and open the document from there. This is a complete pain!

File associations in Bridge CS4

I would like to set the file associations for NEF files as Photoshop (as the default) and Nikon Capture. If I browse to Nikon Capture, Bridge will allow me to set both it and Photoshop as associations, but insists on making Capture the default. If I then click on Photoshop, to attempt to make it the default, Bridge won't allow Capture as an association. How can I have both programs listed, but with Photoshop as the default (so that if I double-click on the thumbnail, Photoshop will open)? Thanks.

All,
I copied this from the Vista Help:
Change the program that opens a type of file
If you double-click a file in Windows and it opens in the wrong software program, follow these steps to choose the program you would prefer that file use. You can change this setting for an individual file, or you can tell Windows to open all files of that same type in the software program you choose.
1. Open the folder that contains the file you want to change.
2. Right-click the file that you want to change, and then, depending on the type of file, either click Open With or point to Open With and then click Choose Default Program.
3. Click the program that you want to use to open this file.
4. Do one of the following:
4A. If you want all files of that type to open in the same software program, select the Always use the selected program to open this kind of file check box, and then click OK.
4B. If you want only that file to open in the software program this one time, clear the Always use the selected program to open this kind of file check box, and then click OK.

File associations in Bridge CC after updating to CC 2014

I am facing a problem with the file association settings in Bridge CC after having updated my other creative suite programs to version CC 2014.
In previous version I had the option when opening eg. PDF file to chose "open with", and then chose Illustrator or Photoshop. This option is no longer available. When using the Preference menu under file association I can only change the default settings to be either Acrobat or for some reason Firefox. When browsing for Illustrator or Photoshop and choosing the program the PDF file will only open in Illustrator or Photoshop as default not Acrobat as it is suppose to. Does anybody have a solution to this problem.

Thank you for the answer, but is doesn't fix the problem. The explorer settings lets me open pdf files in Acrobat, Illustrator or Photoshop.
The problem is that Bridge doesn't allow me to open pdf files in Illustrator.
When trying to solve the problem by altering the file type association settings, browsing and choosing Illustrator CC 2014, the pdf files will then open by default in Illustrator, and this is not what i want. I want the option to chose, open with Illustrator, and still have Acrobat as the default program.
Anybody know how to fix this?

File Associations in Bridge

I've installed and activated Photoshop CS6 (64-bit, Windows 7). The file associations in Bridge are all blown, defaulting either to "none" or IE Explorer. When I try to open a file from Bridge, it opens in Windows Live Photo Gallery, and right-clicking does not return Photoshop as one of the choices. This occurs with Raw files as well as jpegs and tiffs. This has never happened to me with CS4 or CS5, nor with the CS6 Beta that I had been using (and uninstalled before installing CS6). Do I have to manually re-set all of the file associations? How does Bridge not recognize the program of which it is a sub-program?

Thanks for the response. I did uninstall CS5 after installing CS6, but it still seems illogical that Bridge wouldn't default to Photoshop for any file types. I also tried resetting to "default" settings, and that just changed the few I had fixed back to "none". I tried your suggestion for the three resets, and that did not improve the situation. Should I re-install the whole program? (This was an upgrade package: Does CS5 need to be installed for me to do that?).
Thanks again.

File associations in Bridge CS4 for multiple images

After a "cache purge" my file associations got altered. I can go into Edit>preferences> file associations and change that to photoshop; but if I click MULTIPLE images in Bridge and right click "open with" I only get Illustrator as an option. How can I change this to photoshop as a default when trying to open MULTIPLE images?

Ronald Keller - thank you. I am practically in tears laughing about how something so completely simple has had me fretting for days. Could it be my over 60 mind has completely failed me now, or is it I am just a bit rusty on using my software? Anyway, thank you for taking the time to offer up this response!

File associations in bridge for photoshop cc (2014)

I have just installed Photoshop cc (2014), but Bridge still opens Photoshop cc.
Do I have to change the file associations in Bridge manually or is there a shortcut?

Ha, you're lucky! Mine changed the default to Illustrator as the only choice unless you browse to the application exe for some reason!
