How can I change my choice of program to download to?

I tried to download my ebook from KOBO's site but when I tried to open it in Powerpoint I got the error message:
"Powerpoint can't open this file. The file may be not recognized by Powerpoint or the file extension may not match the internal format of the file."
So I double-click the download to try and change my choice from Powerpoint to try say WORD for example but it now thinks I only and forever want to read that file in Powerpoint and it pops straight up with the Powerpoint message every time I retry so it seems my first incorrect choice of program to try and read the file can't be changed - ever.
What can I do to read my ebook in some program other than Powerpoint when it keeps assuming that I only ever want to use my first choice which in this case was Powerpoint?
The file extension is .epub and that seems to require a special reader which I'm hesitant to download off the internet from sites I don't know anything about.
Can anyone please offer some way around this problem?
I realize it's sort of two questions in one and I'm sorry for that but it's got me flummoxed.
Thank you!

epub is a specific format that may require another app - I don't know what that would be on 10.5.
You can get info on the file in Finder (select the file, choose File Menu > Get Info…) the 'Open with' section will allow you to select other apps & you can also change this file & apply it to all files of that kind.
That should solve your issue, but you still may need an ebook reader.

Firefox is opening a .pdf link with Google Docs. How can I change to a different program?

I am opening a government document from a govt webpage link. It's a pdf document, and the document opens in Google Docs. I do not want it to open in Google Docs, but don't know how to change to a different program.
I am using current Firefox; Windows 7.

Thanks for the suggestion, I should've mentioned I'd already tried that without success. I tried clearing everything in the Clear Recent History section actually but the certificate is still remembered.
I've also just now tried deleting the certificates completely but not even that works - a little concerning. (:

How can I change Firefox language without having to download it again?

Hi,
I'd like to know how I can change firefox language, without having to download and re-install it again. I read there is a way to do it, but I just can't find the language file I have to download. (I have firefox in french, and i want to set it in spanish)
thanks for your answers

You need an English language version and there is no en-US language pack in Firefox 3.6. If you do not want the download the en-US version then you can install the en-GB language and switch to that version and remove the Spanish es-ES language pack from the chrome folder in the Firefox program folder.
You can find all language pack here:
http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.11/win32/xpi/.
You can install language pack just like extensions.<br />
You can set the pref "general.useragent.locale" to the preferred language ("en-GB") on the about:config page.<br />
You can open the about:config page via the location bar, like you open a web site.<br />
Use the Filter bar at the top of that page to quickly locate the pref.

If you need the en-US dictionary then look here:<br />

How can i change the settings so that before download the firefox gives a propmt that same file name already exists, instead of automatically renaming duplicate files by adding .1 suffix?

When I download a file, if a file of similar name already exists in the same download folder, the firefox downloads the file and renames it by adding numeric .1 to the file name.
I want the firebox to give me a prompt that similar file already exist, rather than automatically renaming it by adding suffix .1.

When you download music, it comes in the format that the store supplies it.
WAV is a common format for the DJ market, as it is the best as input for pro audio editing. Stores that cater to this market, and from which you can buy music in WAV format, include beatport.com and Juno Download
Both of them also offer MP3/320 as an option, so make sure to select WAV.

Father's macbook now mine. How can I change name, admin, etc without losing apps and programs?

Hello.
My father bought a Macbook Pro 15' retina 8Gb ram 256Gb SSD about 2 months ago.
He set it up, bought many apps and programs but eventually got bored of it and gave it to me.
He is not a Mac enthusiast and thought he should give it a try but he didn't stick to it.
I'm not a Mac enthusiast either, but a good notebook is an ok present so I took it.
I installed some programs and stuff, tried to learn how it works (I have no idea, I was always using windows), and I think I like it.
However, the MacBook has my father's name, my father is the admin, and all the apps programs etc the he and I bought and installed are in his account.
I have his password though. That's how I've been using it the whole time.
How can I change the MacBook to make it "my own"?
I have an apple ID cause I have an iPhone etc but I'm sure just changing that under the admin page won't be enough.
Will I lose the apps my father bought?
Will I have to reinstall all the programs that I installed while I was using the MacBook? For example will photoshop and capture nx be deleted as if I was formatting a pc and I will have to install them again?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
PS. MacBook is now running Mavericks OS X 10.9.4 and I want to upgrade.
But first I want to make myself the "owner" to start getting things in the right order.

How can i change the color of the graph in agreement of the program's condition

Hi,
I am using labview 5.1 in my graduation's project final. (sorry by my english, but i am ina hurry)
How can i change the color of the graph in agreement of the program's condition?
I am developing a VI to control the temperature of termistors,but i have another sensor too.
In a graph i have the situation of the termistors,but i want to change the color of the graph when the sensor is active.
Thanks a lot

To change the color of the line itself, you can use the attribute Plot>>Plot Color.
To change the color of the points, you can use the attribute Cursor>>Cursor Color.
To select the color, you should have a color box constant inside the Numeric>>Additional Numeric Constants palette.
This is all in LV 7.0. I'm not sure how it similar it is in 5.1.
One important thing is to place the attribute node inside a case structure which will execute only when your condition has been filled.
If this didn't help you, I suggest you post the relevant piece of code, or at least an image of it (no BMPs, please).

How can i change the sequence of text element in standard driver program ?

Hi,
can u tell me how can i change the sequence of text element in standard sapscript driver program.. without making a zcopy of standard driver program.
My problem is when MEDRUCK form is getting printed for PO print , header text is coming before item. But the requirement is to come it after item.So how cani do that without making the zcopy of SAPLMEDRUCK program..Is there any enhancement point in SAPLMEDRUCK driver program..where i can put my customise code for changing the sequence of text element ?

Hi,
Just copy the MEDRUCK to ZMEDRUCK. No need to copy the driver program.
1) SE71Menu > Utilities > COpy from Client
MEDRUCK ->>Client 000
New formname ZMEDRUCK
2) Now open the ZMEDRUCK in DE language in SE71
3) Menu > Utilities > Convert original Language
Change DE to EN, save and activate
4) Now open the ZMEDRUCK in EN language
5) Goto Pagewindows > Main window,
Look for the HEADER text Text element, copy the whole code under this Text element just after the ITEM text Text element, and comment the HEADER text above.
Now the Header text Text element will be below ITEM text only. This will full fill your requirment.
Now goto NACE transaction and add the copied ZMEDRUCK to the EF application.

Workgroup Manager should make this a fairly simple task.
First, use it to create a new group containing all of the users you specify. Then, for the group, go to the Login Items preference, and set the program to start up there.
Workgroup Manager, if you don'rt already have it installed, is part of the Server Admin Tools, a free download from Apple.

How can I change my program to adjust to screen size?

Top. I was wondering how can I design it so my program will fit all monitors?

If your program is GUI-based and your top-level container is, say, a JFrame, you could use something like the following:
JFrame frame = <whatever>;
frame.setSize(frame.getToolkit().getScreenSize());
// you could also maximize your frame if you are programming with Java 1.4
frame.setExtendedState(Frame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);Shaun
