How can I view open files?

I am trying to view currently open files as I can do in Windows 7 by hovering over the task bar items. How do I see a list of currently open files on the mac without closing or minimizing the window I am using?

Not having windows, I am not sure what you are after, exactly.
What OS are you using?
To pretty much see all open files...
In Snow Leopard you can use Expose.
Mac 101: Exposé
In Lion you can use Mission Control.

In either, if you want to see what files are open only for a given application, you can click and hold on the appropriate dock icon.

After downloading a pdf from a website, how can I view the file in Safari 6.0.4 (just as I can in Safari 5.0.6)? I bet that it's simple, but I've missed something, somewhere, and a solution will be greatly appreciated.

Hello Kirk,
Thank's for your efforts, and I just wish that this was the solution. Unfortunately, it isn't because, after double-clicking on the pdf in the website, it simply "opens" in another Safari window as a black screen - the pdf is there, somewhere, but not visible (either as an icon, or as a document).
When I right-click in the black Safari window, where the file is supposed to be, the only option available to display the file is to "Open file in Internet Explorer" (which is not what I want to do). Other options include saving or printing the pdf, which I don't want until I've confirmed that it's the form that I want. The same options are offered if I right-click on the file icon in the website.
Any other suggestions, please?

I'm new to the Apple products. How can I view pdf files and videos since Apple and Adobe don't play together? Also, what operating system does the iPhone use? I'm a Windows person.

You may want to download and read the manual for your phone. It may answer a lot of the basic questions.

There is an app on your phone called "Mail". Yes, it's for reading your email.
Best of luck.

How can clients view video file that I upload to my Creative Cloud area?

How can clients view video files that I upload to my Creative Cloud area? Is there a special password that they have to use to gain access?
Thanks for any guidance.

As a video professional, i agree and am VERY disappointed with this policy. I attended CC presentations at various conventions, film festivals and meetups for a year-and-a-half before I made the leap to CC, and no one EVER mentioned a restriction to transferring video files.
Whether it's to save storage space or not, that's how it APPEARS to the end user. Anybody who knows ANYthing about how video pirates commit their crime (which it most-certainly is), knows that there are plenty of FREE, untraceable (or nearly-anonymous) resources to carry it out. The need for anyone to pay $30 or more per-month to do it with an acct that has their info attached to it is ludicrous! If anything it's CONTRIBUTING to piracy to encourage creatives to transfer their material to collaborative parties using a less-secure, more heavily-trafficked third-party service than the one they're paying for exclusive use for.
Adobe's policy makers need to review this restriction and remove it or provide ANOTHER reason why it exists because this one doesn't fly. And if it continues, make sure a disclaimer gets inserted in CC pitch presentations because likely half of the attendees are working with video.

How can I view .mov files on my ipad?

How can I view my .mov spherical panoramas on my ipad?

You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

How Can I View DVD Files?

My guitar instructor shoots a short video (usually 5min or less) at the end of every lesson to help me review what we learned. While these DVDs play just fine on my iMac, I'd like to copy them sometimes over to my iPad so I can view them when I'm travelling. I can handle copying them over to my iPad, but have run into a major stumbling block:
When I open the double click the DVD on my desktop, it opens a Finder window. (Good so far!). But, the Finder window is empty (not so good!). It shows zero items in the status bar. Obviously, there are files there, as the DVD plays just fine...I'm just not able to view them.
Any idea what I need to do in order to view the contents of the disk in order to convert the video over to my iPad?
I'm attaching a couple of files so you can see what I'm seeing:
The above Finder window is what I see after double clicking the DVD on my desktop.
When I Get Info about the DVD, I see the below information:
Any idea what's going on, and what I need to do?

Barny,
Thanks...I must be getting old! I'd tried a couple of DVD ripping software apps I had laying around, and neither worked. Thinking there must be something else I need to do, I posted this question.
After reading your answer, I went back and looked (closer!) at my applications, and realized I'd forgotten all about RipIt. I launched Ripit, and it was able to rip the DVD (and compress it for playback on my iPad) with no problem.
It's still disconcerting that I can't view any files on the DVD in the Finder, but it is what it is, I guess.
Thanks again for jogging my memory!

How can i view .wmv file--Safari 10.7.4 installed Flip4Mac and Quick Time open file, w/o video, only sound?

I used to be able to view .wmv files before OSX update version 10.7.4. Right now I get sound only using either Quich Time or Flip4Mac. Is there a fix for this issue? What else should I try? Thanks for any suggestions you may have.

How can I view pdf files that existed before I downloaded a newer reader version?

I'm unable to view older pdf files after downloading the newest version of reader! How can I fix this?

They should open the same as they did with the older version.
How are you trying to open (double clicking, using file>Open from within Reader, clicking on a link on a webpage...etc) them and what happens when you try?

How can I view .pdf files in a Firefox window?

When I click on a .pdf link, Firefox downloads the file to my desktop. This is fine.
Sometimes, however, I would prefer that Firefox simply open the .pdf document in a new window. I know it used to work this way, but it stopped some time ago. How can I control this behavior?
I looked in Preferences > Applications and selected on "pdf". Two entries showed up under "Content Type":
"Preview.app Document (application/po..."
and
"Portable Document Format (PDF)".
Both entries have the same "Action": "Use PDF Browser Plugin 2.4.4 (in Firefox)"
Oops. I just figured it out. The PDF entry (only) has an extra pulldown option under Action: "Preview in Firefox". I tried it and it works!
I guess the old PDF Browser Plugin 2.4.4 must've quit working some time ago.
--Gil

We're good here, thanks. I went ahead and posted in case someone else had the same problem.
Although... if you know how I might clean out that now-obsolete PDF Browser Plugin 2.4.4, I'd appreciate the tip.

How can i view data files and print them?

I'm collecting very large data files with the DAQ. Afterwards I'd like to be able to view them (zooming in and out and scrolling) then print when I get a view I like. How can I do this? Is there code out there already? What are some ways of easily visualizing large data files without using tons of PC memory and waiting for every data point to load?

There are some basic techniques that are useful in this sort of application. First, to get an overview of an entire dataset, a good place to start is to read in the file 20 or 30 samples at a time. As you read each block, perform an average and only plot the average. This on-the-fly decimation allows you to see very large blocks of data without bogging down you system.
Second, for the zoom function use the cursors. When the user selects an area to zoom in on, read just the values between the indices the user selects. If the selection is small enough you can display the data directly, otherwise you can decimate it as before-though probibly using a smaller block size.
For reading the position of the cursors, use property nodes.
The basic thing to rem
ember is that most PC screens are at most a couple thousand pixels wide. This video resolution places an absolute limit on the number of datapoints that you will be able to see without aliasing. In general it's better to decimate the data yourself than to let the video card do it.

How can I view the files on my Time Capsule without using Time Machine?

In the past Time Machine was backing up to a regular external disc and I could view the files easily. I'm new to the Time Capsule and not sure this is possible as I can't "find" the Time Capsule disc.
Thanks for any tips

The Time Capsule's drive appears as a network drive, so it doesn't show up as an external drive.
To access to it, first make sure you are connected to the Time Capsule. Then, open a Finder window and you will see the Time Capsule's drive in the sidebar, under "Shared". Select it and you will be able to access to the files stored in the Time Capsule

How can I list open files from the same application

I often have several different files open in Word, Excel or Adobe. However only one is visible. How do I get a quick list of the other open files from an application?

Many applications have a Window menu at the top of the screen. Clicking on it will list all the open windows, as well as providing other options depending on the application.
