How can I make Mavericks apply an open file association to ALL similar files?

Hello, I'm trying to make Mavericks open all my Pages documents with the older app version in my folder iWorks '09. I opened a file's info window, selected the app version I wanted, and chose 'continue' to apply it to all similar files. It will not, and I have to manually change each one. Any ideas what I missed? Thank you, Cinilla

I opened a file's info window, selected the app version I wanted, and chose 'continue' to apply it to all similar files.
It shoud have said, "Change All..," not "continue."

  • How can I make Adobe Reader 9 open for incoming PDFs instead of Acrobat 5.0?

    How can I make Adobe Reader 9 open for incoming PDFs instead of Acrobat 5.0?

    Hi,
    Assuming that you have Reader 9.3.4 already installed on your machine, you can try the following to make Reader 9.3.4 as the default PDF opening application:
    1. Right click on any PDF on your system and click on the "Open With" Option in the context menu that appears. In case you get another submenu, click on Chose Program in that menu. (In case you do not see any "Open With" option, then hold down the Shift key and right click on the file)
    2. Click on Browse button in the dialog that appears, and select Reader 9. Make sure that you select the checkbox for "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file"
    3. Click on OK.
    This will make Adobe Reader 9 as the default viewer for all PDFs on your system.

    Not possible. This is a file-specific setting, not an application-wide

    Select (highlight) the file in Finder and then use the Finder File menu Get Info (or Command I) and in the Open With section of the Get Info choose the application you want to open the file. Another method is to right-click the file in Finder.

  • How can I get command+down to open files again?

    For as long as I can recall command+down arrow would open files in the finder. It seems this is no longer the case in 10.6.
    I've tried adding an application shortcut to Finder in the Keyboard System Preference pane but it doesn't seem to have any effect.
    Anyone know how to get it back?

    Following your suggestion I moved all com.apple.*.plist files to a temp folder on my desktop.
    Log out. Log in.
    Keyboard shortcuts were fine.
    From there I moved the plist files back in groups of 12, overwriting any existing files. Log out. Log in. Repeat.
    com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist was the culprit.

  • How can I make blinking eyes stay open?

    I have a shot where a stationary guy is getting sprayed in the face with a fire extinguisher. The actor knows it's coming so he blinks in the split second before he's sprayed. Can I make the pixels from the open eyes, stay where they are in the frames that follow, so that the closed eye pixels are covered with the open eye pixels?

    Roto the eyes so only the eyes are visible, set an in and out point just before the blink so the eyes stay open, move the layer in time to cover the blink.
    If the camera moves or the head moves you have to adjust the position and maybe animate it. That's all there is to it. Layers and time shift.

  • How can I use regular expression to open files of certain types in java?

    Ok this is the problem I am facing:
    I have a command line input of something like "/usr/foo/bar/*.html"
    and there are multiple files in that folder that end with .html.
    How can I use the input to go through/open all the .html files in Java?
    Help would be greatly appreciated thanks!

    Or if you have to do it in java, check out the interfaces java.io.FileFilter and java.io.FileNameFilter
    http://home.tiscali.nl/~bmc88/java/sbook/0128.html
    class HTMLFilter implements FilenameFilter {
        public boolean accept(File dir, String name) {
            return (name.endsWith(".html"));

  • How can I get 'Edit Original' to open file in Photoshop?

    I have a Mac running OSX 10.6.2. I have the full CS4 Suite.
    When I try clicking 'Edit Original' in Illustrator it opens the file in Apple's pdf viewer: 'Preview'. How can I change it to open in Photoshop by default?
    File is CMYK tiff - jsut in case that matters
    I've checked the PDF manual - no joy
    Can anyone help?
    Cheers
    Nick

    Thanks SeniorSSS
    It works!
    Is it me or is that a really off-the-wall solution for Apple to take?:
    If you want to change the way a programme functions, choose a completely unrelated file and use it to instruct all other files of the same type. I would never have thought of that solution in a million years. Perhaps I don't think outside the box ...
    Anyway, much appreciated all the same
    Cheers

  • Cisco NSS324 - how can I get a list of opened files - similar to psfile

    I have a Cisco NSS324. I need to determine what files are open and by what users.
    I have AD integration - so the users I am looking for are Windows users.
    for Windows servers we are using 'psfile' - how can we get a similar tool that works with the Cisco NSS324?
    thank you
    Calin

    Calin,
    Not to familar with window server using psfile. I know of a feature i use in the NSS to give me an idea what local/domain user are accessing. Under Administration-->System log settings click on System connection logs--> click options and select protocol you would like to monitor and then start logging. This will display any users accessing the NSS and there accessed resources. You can also send this information to your local syslog server and save the copy to your local NSS .
    Hope this helps,

  • How can I make iCal in Lion open to the current date?

    I just updated from Snow Leopard to Lion and have had all of the frustrations with changes to iCal that are well-documented here and elsewhere.  One issue I haven't seen addressed, however, is a new behavior after quitting and re-starting.
    Previously, no matter what month/day/week I was viewing when I quit iCal, it would open the next time to the current (month/day/week).  Now, it opens to whatever date(s) I was last viewing when I quit.
    This is highly annoying - 99% of the time, if I quit iCal while looking at (some date 6 months into the future), that is NOT the date I'm looking for when I re-launch.  It's much more consistent behavior to always re-open to the current date, in whatever view (month/day/week) I previously used.  So if today I launch iCal and I'm thinking about adding an event a month in the future, I open iCal, change to month view if needed, and go forward one month.  This is the way iCal always worked previously.  Instead, the version in Lion might leave me on any random month, depending on what I was doing when I closed the program the last time, and so I have to figure out "what month/week am I looking at?" before I know how to navigate.  Very irritating.  (As is the move of the forward/back buttons away from the month/day/week buttons, necessitating that I move the cursor to two different areas of the screen in order to navigate.  Whose idea was THAT?)
    I haven't found a preference to resolve this bizarre behavior change.  Can anyone help?

    Hi,
    I don't know of a preference, but have you used ⌘-T in iCal?
    Best wishes

  • How can I make multiple PDF links open in the same second tab, instead of a 3rd, 4th etc.

    I am working on a project for my Universities 125 year anniversary.  Essentially I've created a 125 year long digital yearbook, with a link to the University's actual digital yearbook for each individual year.  I'm wondering if there is a way that I can make all of the yearbook links open in the same second page.
    IE:  Main Project open in a window,  when I click the 1939 Yearbook pdf hyperlink, the 1939pdf will open in the second window.  I then want to find a way so that after this, on the main page, I can click the 1940 yearbook pdf link and have the 1940 yearbook load on the second window, replacing the 1939pdf, instead of just opening the 1940pdf on a third new tab/window?
    Note: I have all of the yearbook PDF's online and downloaded, so I can make the hyperlink send you to the site, or do a download style thing. 
    Thank for any help, and if anyone needs further information just ask me!
