  • *.indd file extension issue - InDesignCC 2014 - Windows 7

    I cannot get any file with the *.indd file extension to associate with InDesignCC 2014 in windows 7. When I try to use the "Open With" option, InDesignCC 2014 will not show up in the programs list, even if I manually select it. Should I uninstall / reinstall or is there another workaround?

    I was having an issue opening a spreadsheet with the file extension .xlsm. This appears as an attachment from a client which means macros were utilized when creating the spreadsheet. The problem lies in. The iPads ability to open the attachment. I downloaded the numbers app thinking this would be a default software to open any and all spreadsheets.
    Please Help!
    Ipad 2- iOS5

    You may need a version without macros on it. Unfortunately, pretty much all apps are skinned down versions of their original program, often with less functionality. For example in a word document I can italicize,bold and underline, but I only have a handful of fonts to play with and I don't think I can insert tables or images.
    It is very possible that the app simply cannot run macros, which means that document may never work on an iPad.

  • Ristretto or maybe generic mime.types issue: case of file extension?

    Good day.
    Ristretto (the XFCE image viewer) wouldn't recognize the .TIF files I copied over from a Windows partition until I renamed them to .tif. Lowercase .tiff and .tif are indeed the only two file extensions that are mentioned for image/tiff in /etc/mime.types but I thought this was somewhat unexpected (and unwanted).
    Is it a per-app decision whether or not to do case-sensitive extension compares? Is it a problem? And if so, in mime.types or in ristretto?

    Hi,
    for some background information about the above changed behavior, have a look at 4.2 Before Header Processes and Browser Security HTTP Headers of the APEX 4.1. release notes.

  • How can you hide file extensions?

    Hello i have a ton of pictures in seperate folders with the extensions .JPEG and i really hate that it shows. I have tried going to the finder and unchecking the show all file extensions, but it does not fix that issue. I also saw this in another topic but i haven't been able to understand it.
    Open the Script Editor in the /Applications/AppleScript/ folder and paste in the following:
    tell application "Finder"
    set extension hidden of every file of entire contents of (selection as alias) to true
    end tell
    Select the folder enclosing the documents in the Finder, and press the Run button in the Script Editor. If they are enclosed by multiple folders or are at different levels in the folder structure, select the first folder which encloses all the documents.
    (22397)
    I don't know if it still works. Im also not sure where i put the folder. I have tried programs but they take away the extension and make the picture not open up then.
    Please if you can help

    yes i found it, but this is how i enter it i dont think its right:
    tell application "Finder"
    set extension hidden of every file of entire contents of (selection as alias) to true
    end tell
    /Users....
    then i get Syntax error "/"

  • Double file extensions keep showing up when saving a file in Illustrator CS3???

    I just installed the CS3 suite and when I am saving files in illustrator I keep getting double file extensions. For example if I save a file named "filename" as a .eps file it shows up in the save window with filename.eps.eps Also, if I click through the possible file types to save it keeps adding them one after the other so if I click. say pdf eps and ai the file in the "Save As:" window looks like this " filename.pdf.eps.ai.ai" Any ideas why this is happening? I keep having to mouse click in the "Save As:" box and delete the extra extension. This is really annoying!!
    I am running the design premium CS3 on OSX 10.5 on a mac pro.
    Thanks.

    >Wade... I've seen it... and reported it originally to Adobe. I've since realized it's a 10.5.1 issue. It doesn't happen with 10.4.11, just 10.5.1
    I've seen extra periods (.) and extra extensions.
    then you and Dave have the same conflict with a third party software, corrupt font, corrupt preference or the like because it is not happening o my Mac Pro and I have the same model Mac as you do and I am working fine in 10.5.1 and only problem I have had with AI CS 3 is when I tried to place a 3D CAD file with the extension .dxf which is not really supported.
    I have not seen this even once. Would you like to see screen shots, it honestly is not a 10.5.1 or Illustrator issue on its own. This has to be user specific.

  • Windows 7 No Longer Recognizes The .zfsendtotarget File Extension

    My Windows 7 no longer recognizes the .zfsendtotarget file extension as of a few days ago. I don't know what happened or how to fix it other than possibly going back to an earlier point, which I cannot do due to all the progress, which will be lost.
    Besides, there must be a more intelligent course of action.

  • Dreamweaver CC and Windows 8.1 - Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension

    Was running the latest version with no issues and then I loaded Office 2013 .. Now when I am in the remote site and try to double click on a .cfm file, I get a dialog box..Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension..
    I tried the support chat and they said Dreamweaver support was not available, try again later???
    So I thought I would reinstall the CC version and now I can see the Dreamweaver icon next to the files but still ... can't open the file..
    Any assistance would be appreciated?
    Leo

    The issue is only in Windows 8.x where when Dreamweaver CC is installed, it is not able to turn on the file type associations by default.  The workaround for now is to manually add the extensions both within Windows and then within Dreamweaver CC itself.
    Go to Control Panel > Programs > Default Programs > Set Your Default Programs and select Dreamweaver CC and then select 'Choose defaults for this program' and Select All or the extensions you want to open in Dreamweaver CC
    Start Dreamweaver CC and go to Edit > Preferences > File Types/Editors and add '.cfm .cfc' to the extensions and then add C:\Program Files (x86)\Dreamweaver CC\Dreamweaver.exe then click on Apply and Close
    That should be it.

  • IPhone photo/video library glitch - wrong file extensions, name shift, lost files etc [LONG story - sorry]

    I have a 5s running 7.0.4. and my computer is running Windows 8.1.
    We had a baby and my phone filled up fast with pictures and videos, so I decided to offload them onto my PC. I connected my phone to the usb port, and directly copied from the DCIM folder to my hard drive.
    Something happened during the first attempt, and the process was interrupted. So I went into each of the sub folders, and selected all files, and started the copy process again. I told the computer to skip any existing files.
    So all the file counts matched in each folder, and I figured it was safe to start deleting from my iPhone.
    On my hard drive, I separated all the MOV files into my Videos folder. But in Windows Explorer, the thumbnail view showed several MOV files with no thumbnail - just the generic icon.
    As I sorted my photos into various folders, I also noticed a lot of generic icons instead of thumbnails for the JPGs. I started to feel concerned that my files had become corrupt during the transfer. But then I noticed a PNG file that was a few hundred megabytes. This was odd, so I added the MOV extension to it. Sure enough, it was a video with the wrong extension.
    I renamed every PNG and JPG file that had no thumbnail to add the MOV extension. Every one was a video with the wrong file extension.
    Then I went to the video folder, and all the MOV files that had the generic icon were actually JPG files.
    Well I was just happy to see that the files were not corrupt.
    One more time before I deleted things from my iPhone, I did a spot check to see that the largest videos were on my hard drive. I found a few videos that were not copied over, despite the file counts having been accurate. So I copied the videos again, and compared file sizes and date/times when there was an overwrite prompt. Most were matches, but several were the same file name with different sizes and dates.
    I didn't know what was going on, but I just wanted to get the files on my computer. So I renamed my local copy where there was a name collision, and copied the videos. I deleted the videos from my phone as I went along.
    I felt pretty confident that I had all the files copied now, so I began mass deleting my photos.
    I went to the Photos app on the phone, and watched the thousands of pictures disappear, and the glorious free space grow on my phone.
    But wait... there was still 1 video in the Photos app. I thought I had gotten all the MOV files off the phone...
    I have a photo info app installed, so I was able to see the file name of the video. I searched for that file name in the DCIM subfolders, but the folder that had that series of files (the IMG_3000-3999 files) listed the files with that particular video skipped. It was clearly still on my phone, because I could play it.
    Then I noticed it was a 45 minute long video of my baby. About 5 GB. So I figured it must be due to the file size that it wasn't visible from explorer. (Can't explain why that would be, but M$ keeps changing crap too. I never freaking know what to expect from them either.)
    After having deleted all the jpg, png and mov files from the DCIM folder, there were still about 26 files in my camera roll on the iPhone. And I could still view the video.
    I decided I wasn't concerned about the photos, I just wanted to figure out how to get the video onto my computer.
    So I selected all the photos in the photo app (skipping the 1 remaining video) and tapped the trash can.
    Poof! One item remained, and it was one of the garbage photos. My video is GONE! ^#@*&#($^@Q&%( And no, I didn't fat-finger it. I was very careful to select the correct thumbnails.
    Looking back, I know that I should have just started the entire file copy process from scratch when funny stuff started happening like mismatched file names. But I am a sleep-deprived new mom and just wasn't thinking clearly. It would be nice if I could have used my file/directory compare program to check the iPhone against my laptop, but it is not compatible with devices, only removable drives.
    And no, I don't use iTunes. I stopped using iTunes years ago when it would randomly decide to delete contacts from my phone just because they didn't exist on my computer or some sh-- like that. I have always just manually synced all my stuff and have never had an issue like this. To say I am sad to lose that video is an understatement.
    I googled "iPhone undelete" and "iPhone data recovery" and downloaded a trial for one of the likely candidates. It turned up a bunch of garbage, but not my video.
    Anyways... I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this type of scenario? Has anybody identified what could cause this to happen? I would like to avoid this in the future. (I will avoid this type of loss, because I know now what I could have done differently to be more careful. But it would be nice if I didn't have to get all neurotic about checking 60GB of photos/videos side by side each time I copy them to my computer...)
    I have seen other threads on the forum here regarding corrupted libraries and such, but I am not sure this is the same thing.
    One suspicion I have is that it might have to do with the iPhoto app being installed on the phone. I can't articulate why I think that is worth considering. But when I looked at my Video folder, I ended up with many duplicate videos, and all the duplicated videos' file names were 2 numbers apart. As if all the file names got shifted at some point. Very strange.
    Thanks for listening to my rant. If anybody has an idea, I am interested. If anybody else has lost precious memories due to this, we should talk. If it is a widespread problem, maybe we can all get together and pound down Apple's door?
    As an aside: Why am I unable to select Apple Support Community to post this question to?

    In my case number of weird things happen whenever I try to copy pictures/videos from my iPhone from direct USB...
    1. JPG files are wrongly named as MOV and vice versa.
    2. I copy only folders but in addition files with no extension are copied in the main folder, very strange.
    3. Whenever I open one of the folders, strange icons like this () start appearing which cannot be copied even.
    Unfortunately I used to delete a lot of files with wrong extensions in the past because I never new they could be fixed.
    Apple should answer this!
    Note: I am using Windows 8.1 and use a direct USB cable without iTunes to copy the media files directly from My Computer.

  • File save issue

    Is there a way to set a default extension when saving an image using  FileReference save method?
    Code:
    var fileReference:FileReference = new FileReference();
    fileReference.save( pngData, "image.png" );
    Problem:
    If windows is set to "hide known file extensions",
    only image without extension will be displayed in save dialog.
    File type is "*.*".
    Some of my users hat the great idea to add .jpg extension in filename,  because they couldn't see one.
    So file was saved broken as image.jpg.

    Where is that File Ref coming from?  I don't see where you open the file.  Nor do I see where you are closing it.
    It also concerns me that you are passing the reference to two different places.  I can't see what is happening in your subVI, but that is a potential issue.
    You should be using the "Not a Number/Path/Refnum?" function to check to see if your file reference is valid.
    Your loops run forever.  You should have a way to gracefully shut down your VIs instead of just cutting power.
    There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

  • Custom File Extension for Microsoft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv)

    I'm trying to use a custom file extension for the Microsoft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv) driver.
    I have updated the FileExtns registry to have my new extension.
    When I issue the following it does not work.
    select [NoName] 
    from openrowset('MSDASQL'
               ,'Driver={Microsoft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv)};
                    DefaultDir=c:\filedir'
               ,'select * from "file.lst"')
    If I make the file a .csv it works fine.  However, if it has an extension of not CSV or TXT (in this case .lst, which is in the registry setting) extension it throws the following error and cannot seem to find a solution to it. 
    OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.". Msg 7350, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Cannot get the column information from
    OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)".
    In addition, (although I can probably find this elsewhere), I need to have the first line 'BLANK' so that it does not miss data (there is no header row).  Is there  a way to use OPENROWSET without BULK to basically include all rows as data?
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi,
    According to your description, I did a test with your script, and got the same message as your post. Usually, by default, the Microsoft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv) supports the four extensions file, such as *.asc, *.csv, *.tab, *.txt. To solve this issue,
    I recommend you try to save the LST file in the above format, then use OPENROESET to get data from the supported extensions file in SQL Server.
    In addition, the
    OPENROWSET function is mainly used to retrieve remote data from an OLEDB data source, when you use OPENROWSET without BULK, provider_name is a necessary parameter in the script. However, the OPENROWSET (BULK...) is mainly called from a SELECT…FROM clause
    within an INSERT statement, when importing bulk data from a data file into SQL Server table. Thus if you need to import bulk data, you should use the basic  syntax: INSERT ... SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET(BULK...), also there are some alternatives, such as
    BULK INSERT
    and
    BCP .

  • Bug : Invalid file extension error when opening exported excel

    Hi All,
    In one of my jsff page, i have implemented 'exportToExcel' functionality through a exportcollectionactionlistener on a table to export its data to excel. When i try opening the generated excel, i get the following warning in excel 2007 :
    "The file you are trying to open, 'Export.xls,' is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?" - When I clicked YES to the message, the exported excel opened and data is present.
    How can i get rid of this warning message, because it is annoying for any user to click YES every time the excel is opened ? I am using jdev version 11.1.1.6.0 This is my code :
    <af:commandToolbarButton text="Export to Excel" id="cb1">
    <af:exportCollectionActionListener exportedId="t1"
                               type="excelHTML"
                               filename="Export.xls"
                               title="Excel export"/>
    </af:commandToolbarButton>I found a similar forum post here File format of exportCollectionActionListener ADF 11g But they are suggesting a registry fix which is not possible in production environment.
    Any possible workaround or suggestions to resolve this issue is much appreciated.
    Thanks

    You can save the data on the client and the check the data.

    Hi Team,

  • How to assign file extension and custom icon to executable?

    Hi all,
    I was reading an old thread about this issue:
    http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&thread.id=116925 
    I need to try to do this.  My application uses a custom file extension (i.e. .abc).  Upon installation I would like to:
    1.  Assign My App and custom icon to the file class (extension .abc).
    This could be done by manipluting the registry (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776856(VS.85).aspx)?  This could be a problem with Vista s unless registry operations occur during installation any changes are placed in a VirtualStore, correct?
    2.  Enable the double-clicking of .abc file type to pass the data in the file to my VI (exe). 
    According to the File Handling Guidelines of Jean-Pierre Drolet (http://www.openg.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=File+Handling+Guidelines) the best way to do this may be using LabVIEW as an ActiveX server.
    I know that when I build an executable (or installer?) there is the option to enable LabVIEW to act as an ActiveX server.  This much I know I need to do.
    I thought I would open this discussion again as others may be interested and there doesn't appear to be a completely clear solution available.  Please do contribute where you can.
    Cheers,
    Battler.

    How to register for ommand line event so that when a user double-clicks on a .abc file I can handle the opening of it?
    This needs to work (the files need to open) not only when the application is closed but also when it's already open.
    Anyone have ideas? 
    The solution to that is to implement a DDE server in your application (and add DDE entries to the registry on installation). There are still DDE functions in LabVIEW vi.lib\Platform\dde.llb but they are considered depreciated and have been removed from the palette, also because Microsoft is trying to tell everyone that DDE is depreciated and sort of unsupported too. But it is still the mechanisme to pass actions from the shell to running applications.
    I hesitate to send you over to lavag.org where there have been some discussions about this years ago. If you go there you would do good to employ a friendly attitude. That board is run all by enthusiasts and idealists and they are all great folks but react not very friendly to people with an attitude.
