.gtar files when downloading?

When i try to dowload a file that is *.tgz Mac always puts a .gtar at the end of it and i can't figure out how to stop it. Please advise.

There are many versions of this song in the UK Store. If you contact Apple from the iTunes section of the website (make sure you have the purchase details to hand), they should credit you so you can purchase another version of the song.
When you contact them, mention the problem file so they know to pull it.

Is it still possible to have the option to "open" a file when downloading it instead of saving it to the downloads folder?

The question pretty much says it all: the old versions of Firefox used to allow you to select "open" when downloading a file instead of saving it to a directory. I am fully aware that that's what selecting "open" does anyway, but I still like that option. Is it still available? That's one of my major irritations with Chrome, which I am considering switching from since Firefox 4 is faster.

You can do that with the OpenDownload² add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/opendownload-10902

Attempting to upgrade to Firefox 3.6 (using an ancient Mac OS 10.3), but received an error message (corrupt image file) when downloading - any way to correct this with my current OS?

I'm currently trying to update a few programs on my good old (VERY old) Mac Powerbook, but I ran into an error when downloading Firefox version 3.6...I'm currently running Mac OS X 10.3.9, which isn't compatible with the most recent versions of Firefox (or anything, for that matter), but it should still allow an upgrade of version 3.6; however, once the file finished downloading, an error message popped up indicating there's a corrupt image file. Is there any way to work around/correct this problem, or am I stuck with my old version of Firefox until I bite the bullet and upgrade my OS??? Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Firefox 3.6 requires at least OS X 10.4, the last version of Firefox that runs on OS X 10.3.9 is Firefox 2.0.0.20 available from https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/mac/en-US/

.dmg files forced into .xls files when downloading applications

Why are dmg files being forced into xls files when I'm attempting to download applications from websites?
MacBook1,1 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Hi mospirit,
first of all: WELCOME TO THE DISCUSSIONS!
Sometimes files lose connection to their application. This can be solved quite easily though:
1. Download Cocktail, OnyX or Tiger Cache Cleaner and reset the "Launch Services Database".
2. Click any .dmg and type Apple-i to get the Information window. In the pop-up called "Open With" select "Other" and navigate to /System/Library/CoreServices. There select DiskImageMounter as default application. Finally back in the Information window click "Change All".

Problems: Sorting files when downloading

I am having difficulty sorting my images into different folders when downloading with Lightroom.
Previously I used the Fuji finepix system when the downloaded thumbnails appeared I was able to direct selected images to different folders ie Shoot 1, Shoot 2, Shoot 3 etc. OR Scenes, Animals, Flowers etc , As yet I have not been able to figure out how to achieve this when using Lightroom3.
and
I can end up with hundreds of shots on a card and the sort by date is no use to me as I can have multiple shoots on the same day and usually resort to the old trick of shooting a "clapper board" at the start of each shoot and import each shoot seperately. This system is quite time consuming and gets even more complicated when I'm shooting socially and the images in each category are scattered randomly throughout the card.To complicate matters I shoot soetimes in Raw, sometimes in jpg
Ideally I would like to view large previews and then drag & drop selected ones to the relevant folders. Right click and Send To/Copy To seems a bit slow though,
Can anyone suggest a work system to suit my requirements?

I would forget about the physical storage (i.e. let LR use its default folders), and concentrate on using keywords to organise your photos instead.

Error 'Unable to open file' when downloading SAP Query to Excel

Hi all
I'm running a SAP Query which is set to download straight to a spreadsheet (Pivot Table / Microsoft Excel). Intermittently it does not work - apparently at random (at least, I've can't recreate the error at will).
It does one of the following:
- Works ok, and creates the pivot table
- Gives an Excel error message 'Unable to open file', then returns to the 'save the data in a spreadsheet' popup when enter is pressed on the error.
- Does not issue error message, just goes to the 'save the data in a spreadsheet' popup.
In the last two cases, the excel pivot table sheet is not created.
Has anyone seen anything similar, or have any idea as to what is causing the problem?
Any help gratefully received!
Not urgent as I've found a way round - further testing seems to show that I don't get the error is Excel is already open - but in the past I've run many SAP query downloads without needing to open Excel first. I suppose it's possible that this is just something to do with the Excel setup at the user site

Hi,
Ensure that file name with same name and in same path should not be open while saving the data.
Award if it helps.

Yes the report painter report especially in the hierarchial format will not make much sense when you download to excel. Until now I also have not seen any solution to this.

Safari 6 (7536.25) on Mid 2007 Mini running Lion damages pdf files when downloaded. Adobe reader can't open them; downloaded via Chrome they can be opened.

When I download pdf files using Safari 6, they can't be read by Adobe Reader; using Safari to read them isn't a solution, because Safari doesn't allow them to be printed page by page. The same files, downloaded by Chrome, by contrast, can be opened and printed. Is there a patch for this problem?

Adobe reader won't recognise pdf file when downloaded

Hi all
Hope I'm in the right forum, if not would be grateful for correct re-direction ...
I have a web site written in DWcs4 with a link to a PHP page offering a pdf document for download.
The PHP code includes the "content-disposition: attachment " header in order to prompt the "view or save as" download box.
When the link in the web page is accessed the pop up box asking to view or save the file works fine (as desired) however when trying to view the pdf file,
acrobat reader opens automatically but gives a message similar to the following :
my_pdf(1).pdf is not an permitted file type or is damaged (for example sent as an email attachment and not correctly coded)
Firstly I dont understand why the file reference has a (1) added to it (the source file is simply my_pdf.pdf)
secondly I dont understand why the file is not recognised since I created it myself in Adobe 8.0 converted from a word doc.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks
Wadyaro

Hi Luv_craft,
Have you tried to check to print with other PDF documents. Try open a different PDF document and check if you have option to print or you are able to see the list to choose the printer to print with.

Netstorage doubles up files when downloading a folder?

In Netstorage, when you download a folder, it zips the contents up and you
download a ZIP file.
Inside the ZIP we have all the files duplicated? It's doubling everything
up?
Anyone help?

I recieved a zip file, when downloaded no option to unzip appeared. but clicking on one of the items in the folder i received a message saying microsoft windows apps. do no supported on OsX

I received an email from my server trying to help me upgrade my thomson router, they sent me a file and said unzip it and open the "setup.exe" but when I clicked on the said folder i received a pop up saying : I cant open the app. because Microsoft Windows applications are not supported on OS.X
Any help out there? Incidentally until I can open this file, I cannot follow the upgrade nstructions received on another download.

I do not believe you can open and run .exe files in Parallels. Parallels is simply a vehicle for running Windows on a Mac.
To open and run an .exe file, you need to have a valid copy of Windows, which you can install on your Mac in Parallels or BootCamp. Only when running Windows will you be able to open the .exe file and update your router.
I wouldn't worry about Microsoft Office, I think an earlier poster got the impression that you were trying to run Microsoft office, but I don't think you ever mentioned such a thing.

What is the second exe file when downloading Reader 11.0.3 and what is it used for?

I downloaded Reader 11.0.3 for Windows 8 yesterday and in doing so it tried to download a 2nd exe file. When I googled the name of the 2nd exe some sites said it is a virus (so I cancelled the download of the 2nd exe). Is it a virus or what is it? I don't have the file name with me but will post it later when I have the file name.

Thanks for the info,but before selecting "download now" I unchecked the "Yes, install Chrome as my default browser and Google Toolbar for Internet Explorer - optional" box so if that is what it is, then it should not have tried to download. It prompted for a run or save on the first download, I installed the first download and after it completed, then a run or save prompt came up for Install_reader11_en_gtbd_chrd_dn_aaa_aih.exe. Since I didn't choose to install anything else and I didn't know what it was, I ggogled it and a number of sites had hits for it, including the forums here where others were complaining that they couldn't install or uninstall reader with that exe running in background. Other links said it was a trojan horse, loaded viruses, etc. so I didn't save or run it. The first of the two exe downloads installed reader and it seems to work fine though.

Corrupt file when Downloading iTunes+Quicktime

Im on my sisters laptop and when I try to install iTunes, it says there is a corrupt file. Im sorry if someone else has had this problem and Im just repeating it. But, she has had iTunes before, but had her pc wiped out. Could that have something to do with it? And is anyone else having this problem

There is a very comprehensive post on the subject at this link: "What to do if Windows displays an "iTunes.exe - Corrupt File" message" http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=1726580#1726580
