Having trouble opening jpgs of a disc from another mac user

HI everyone,
I am hoping someone can help me. My friend gave me a series of pictures on a disc and when I try and open them I am getting the message
Item "IMG_1621JPG" is used by Mac OS X and cannot be opened. I am running system OS X 10.5.8. Not sure which version she has.
Thanks for your help

Do you get the same error with all the files?
Are you double clicking the file to open? If so, try this.
Open whatever app you can use, like Preview, to view jpg files. Then in the Finder, select the jpg to open. Now does it open?
 Cheers, Tom

How do you open a Numbers file sent from another Mac user with same operating system, i get a pop up that says I'm missing an index.hml file??? HELP PLEASE

how do you open a Numbers file sent from another Mac user with same operating system, i get a pop up that says I'm missing an index.hml file??? HELP PLEASE

The operating system may be the same but the Numbers applications are likely different. You need to get the apps in sync. Unfortunately, the Numbers (and Pages as well) saga is pretty confusing (and frustrating). Here's some info from the iWork resident version expert (PeterBreis0807):
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs.

I am having trouble syncing my latest album photos from my Mac to albums on my iphone5. can atone help?

I am having trouble syncing my latest album photos from my Mac to albums on my iphone5. can atone help?

Syncing an iPhone 4S running iOS 6.1.3 or earlier requires at least a G4 Mac running 10.5.8.
Syncing an iPhone 4S running iOS 7 requires at least an Intel Mac running 10.6.8.
If your computer can't be upgraded to the required OS version, buy a secondhand or refurbished one which can.

Reinstalling Tiger using a install disc from another mac?

I have 2 macbook pros. A brand new one with the Santa Rosa chip and 1 with the older chip. Can I use the disc that came with the new mac with the newest version of OS and other programs to update the older macbook pro?
Thanks.

Does this mean that I shouldn't use the Generic Tiger install disc to reformat the macbook pro either? Would I be missing drivers or anything by doing this?
Well, if by "Generic" you mean the boxed retail version of Tiger, you wouldn't be able to boot from it. No boxed retail Tiger has the Intel software or drivers necessary to boot an Intel Mac. Only the discs shipped with Intel CPUs have the Intel OS on them.
Presumably this is not the case with the Leopard discs, which must have the code for both architectures...

Installing Leopard with discs from another Mac

I've a Mac mini, first generation, G4 processor, running Tiger. I've recently bought an iMac 24 inch which runs Leopard. Is it possible to install Leopard on the Mac mini using the discs I got with the iMac? Thanks!

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
No, it is not. Disks that ship with Macs are hardware specific and will not install on different hardware. Also, it is a violation of the single user license agreement.

Having trouble opening connections and reading from Bluetooth devices.

Hello,
As the title states, I am having trouble opening connections and reading data from a Bluetooth device. We are using a PDA to communicate with LabVIEW. First, the Bluetooth Open Connection VI displays a timeout error half of the time. Second, when it does open, it does not read what the PDA is sending. Third, if it does allow an open connection, it will not do it a second time unless the devices are turned off.
I also have another related question. I am using a Linksys Bluetooth USB adapter, and the driver is proprietary. Labview requires the use of a Microsoft driver, and we are having problems going back and forth between the drivers. What Bluetooth receiver would you suggest using? The reason I ask is the fact that you have Bluetooth examples of client VI's. Therefore, you must use a similar device. Thank you for your time.
-Jon

Hi Jon,
I'm not sure what Bluetooth receivers were used to verify the functionality of the VIs. However, I still want to help you solve your issue. Please make sure that you are running the shipping examples and let me know what version of LabVIEW, what PC OS and what PDA OS you are using. Does the Microsoft driver work for your Bluetooth receiver if you uninstall the Linksys driver?
With your answers I'll do my best to help you out.

Icalendar setup to load from another mac

I want to setup so the calendar from another mac user shows on my computer ?? Have tried the icloud bit but don't know what I am supposed to do, yes I am a novice ..... I am sure it will be a very simple thing but don't know where to start??

Open the Migration Assistant in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder, or connect the computers with a FireWire cable, start up the G5 with the T key held down, and move files over manually. The Migration Assistant will not transfer data to an existing Mac OS X user account.

I am having trouble opening .nef raw files from a nikon d800 in elements 9.

I am having trouble opening .nef raw files from a nikon d800 in elements 9.
I have tried to update ACR to the latest version but can not tell if this has been successful
I just get the message "wrong type of file"

For the D800 you have two alternatives:
(1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.3
Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.3
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

Having Trouble Opening TIFF Files

I'm having trouble opening TIFF files into Camera Raw. I have checked all my settings in Adobe Bridge and everything seems to be saying that TIFF files should open in Camera Raw when I click on then int and then into photoshop when finished editing in camera raw.
I'm trying to open 32 bit HDR images saved as a TIFF file into Camera Raw, and there seems to be nothing I can do to get them there. I have tried everything I can think of. When I right click on it (cmd click I'm on a mac) the option to open in camera Raw isn't there. I have tried clicking and dragging the image into Photoshop to try and force it maybe to open into Camera Raw, and I have opened photoshop and tried opeing it up from mini Bridge. In mini bridge I have the option to open the image into Camera Raw when I click this nothing happens.
I'm not sure what else to try I'm on CS6 and Camera Raw 7.0 .

Alright I'll try that thanks!

It might be that you need to update camera raw to version 8.3 by going to Help>Updates from within photoshop or bridge.
(i don't remember exactly in which version of acr that was added, but probably after version 7.0)

Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw Update for Photoshop CS5. I have a pc.

Please Help? Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw update. I have a pc.

If the camera is fairly new then the version of ACR you have with CS5 won't be able to read those file. You'll need to upgrade to a newer version of Photoshop or use Lightroom 5.
Once a new version of Photoshop comes out Adobe does not support updating ACR from the older version of PS.

Having Trouble Opening Catalog

I recently subscribed to the Adobe Creative Cloud. When the new LightRoom CC was announced, I upgraded to that from my older LR 4. Now I am having trouble opening the LR Catalog. The box that pops up says it is note writable and cannot be opened. A message under that says it could be caused by incorrect permissions. Help with figuring this out would be much appreciated.
My computer is a PC. I also tried opening a different catalog, getting a message that it needs to be upgraded. I complied, and it opened it. Then, when I went back to open the most recent catalog, it would not open. I looked at the permissions, tried to see if anything looked out of order. But I am not sure what is right and what is wrong!
Also, I have discovered that a group of photos are missing from the catalog. I can restore them from a backup, but they won't do me any good if I cannot open LightRoom! Is this a problem others have experienced - photos dropping out of the catalog?

Having trouble opening a pdf with Adobe...keep seeing an error sign "acroExch" does anyone have a way to fix this?

Having trouble opening a pdf with Adobe...keep seeing an error sign "acroExch" does anyone have a way to fix this?

Hmm, "Use Adobe Reader" should launch the PDF outside of Firefox in the stand-alone Adobe Reader application, so seeing it in a tab is something of a puzzle.
Could you check your version of Adobe Reader? For Windows 7, you normally would have the Reader XI series (Reader 11), which has had several updates. From inside Adobe Reader, you can use Help > Check for Updates to make sure it's current.
In Firefox, could you check your Adobe Acrobat plugin version or possibly versions? You can view that on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Plugins. If you find multiple versions, this can cause problems and may need to be cleaned up manually (post back on that for suggestions).
Sometimes, the settings file which stores those download handler preferences becomes corrupted and there's not much else to do than to rename or remove that file and let Firefox rebuild it.
To do that, open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This will launch a new window (Windows Explorer window) listing various settings files.
Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
* (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''mimeTypes.rdf''' to something like mimeTypes.old
Start Firefox back up again and "PDF Files" should be back to their default setting of "Preview in Firefox". Try changing that to "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)" and test to see whether there's any improvement.
