How come 5.0 can't open local desktop images files (.jpg, .tif, .png ...) on my Mac anymore?

I'm using Mac 10.6.8 and the newest version of Firefox 5.0. I have always been able to select File > Open File from the Firefox menu and select any image file on my computer and view it in the browser window. Suddenly I can't do this. All image files on my system are greyed out and not accessible. I can open html files from my local desktop and all images are present but can't open any .css files or single image files.

Here's the *.tiff file.
I've had to switch browser to Safari, as you can't load a tiff in Firefox, either.

  • I have an imac osx 5 mos.old. First time today I can not open my desktop folder/files. I need to read them. Message is: appleworks 6 quit unexpectedly. I need to read them. Is it possible that new software downloaded yesterday is problem?

    I have an imac osx 5 months old. For the first time today I can not open my desktop folders which are very important to me. How can I open these folders.
    The message when I click on the folder is "appleworks 6 quit unexpectedly". I can not open the folder. Is it possible that new software installed could cause the problem when I get the message "new softward available for your computer, install now. Maybe I should never install upgrade. Please help in layman's language how to open my folders. Thanks.

    The curious thing here is that on the one hand the code cannot be loaded so how could the trojan code be ever executed.  But you would expect the "Unexpectedly quit" message if the intel trojan did get executed in a ppc app.  So this begs the question when (and how) does the trojan code get executed in conjunction with launching an app?
    I understand code injected into a specific app like safari that uses the global environment variable to access the code in /Users/Shared.  But I don't understand how that code could be executed by attempting to run an randomly chosen ppc app.  Unless of course   other code has been injected is in a more critical place than just safari and that is scary.
    Some of this was explained to us a few weeks back by an infected user who reverse engineered the code, working with Intego to figure out why he was being re-directed on Google searches. At the time, nobody believed much of anything he was saying, but F-Secure explains it more fullly in this analysis. Note that there is a filter component to keep it from loading code into apps that would be unstable, so watch for the next variant to filter out ppc only apps.
    In a related matter, I got word from the PC side of the house that similar techniques are being used by drive-by infections that were injecting code into a running app which would disappear when they quit the app. A one-time infection, so to speak. Makes it really hard to even know you were temporarily infected, let alone how, why, what damage, etc.

  • Can I open Aldus Pagemaker 1990s files in any software on a Mac using OSX 10.8.2

    I have a number of old files on CD which I am fairly certain are old Aldus Pagemaker files from the early 1990s although they appear in Finder as Unix Executable files. Is there any way that they can be opened? Does Pagemeaker still exist in any form that can be operated on my Mac (Mountain Lion)?

    Here is a post I recently assembled for another similar question:
    With the newer Intel Macs, you have to run a Classic emulator such as SheepShaver, which requires you to extract the Mac ROMs from your older Classic Mac and then install Mac OS 9.
    A related program is Chubby Bunny, which comes bundled with all of that included (google the term "Classic-On-Intel v 4.0.1 chubby bunny").

    I have an old Kodak Photo CD (1999) and Photoshop Elements 11 on Windows 7. How can I open the .pcd images?
    Please help me open these photos. They are very important to me and I need to access them.
    If I can't do it with any of the software installed on my computer, would someone be willing to open them, save them as jpgs and send them to me?
    Thank you so much, Nancy

    You can get the plugin here by downloading the Extra Content for Photoshop CS3  File 2
    Just be sure to follow Note:Very Important Instructions or the link won't work.
    http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
    After downloading the PHSPCS3_Cont_WWE.exe, double click on it to extract the contents, probably to your desktop.
    Then in the Goodies folder, Optional Plugins folder, you'll see the Kodak PhotoCD folder
    Open that and copy the Photo CD.8BI to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11\Plug-Ins
    Copy the profiles to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Color\Profiles

  • How come my apps won't open after updating to ios5

    how come my apps won't open after updating to ios5?

    Thanks for the feedback.  This is a custom enterprise application.   So there is not an update yet.   It will take our developer a little time to get it IOS 5 compatiable.  So unless I can change the IOS we can't use application until we get upgrade of the custom app.

  • How come when I try to open an app on my phone does the screen just blink and the app not open?

    How come when I try to open an app on my phone does the screen just blink and the app not open?

    Some apps crash. If they do, try this, in order.
    1. Double click your home button and put your finger on any app and hold for a second. Then delete that app. You're not deleting the app from your phone, so don't worry. Then try opening the app again.
    2. If that doesn't work, hold your sleep+home buttons for 10 seconds and don't let go. Ignore the power off message. Then try again.
    3. If that doesn't work, delete the app and re-download it. (This will work most of the time)
    4. If that doesn't work, download the app on iTunes on your computer and sync it from there.
    5. If that doesn't work, wait for an update by the developers.

  • Can't open local port

    Hello all
    I would be very grateful for some help with this problem,I haven;t been able so solve and i have spend a lot of time on it
    I have written my own client RTSP code,from this i can set the client ports i want to recieve and send RTCP and recieve RTP,and can read in the server ports
    So i have something like 157.190.181.36 60972 60973 client
    157.190.181.36 6972 6973 server
    To handle RTP i have used RTP socket player or RX and may other RTP reciver options,as in the java solutions etc ,so that i can recieve RTP and create a player
    When i run them i get the same eror from all error can't open local port
    Further information
    I am on a LAN,but hav tried my set up disconnected from the LAN through a hub set up
    I have tried opening the ports before callled the RTP players i.e
    on the client side
    DatagramSocket RTPsocket3= new DatagramSocket(60972);
    DatagramSocket RTPsocket4= new DatagramSocket(60973);
    Through sniffers
    I know the RTSP messages are OK
    I recive an ICMP message destination unreachable
    I am connecting to darwin streaming server and i can connect to this and play through apple quicktime player or JM studioTHANKS IN ADVANCE!

    Hey...
    I'm having a similar problem, because i'm developing an application that its serving RTP audio context streams. So the application would transmit a playlist of files over RTP, and it works fine for one file, but when i try to give it a new file, i always get the exception "Can�t open door: ...". This error occurs on the line that is marked with *****.
    I'm creating a processor for each file i want to transmit, for the same port and same IP address, so when the first file ends i close the processor and create a new one with the same properties, but with a diferent file...
    I really nead this to work, so if someone could help me on this it would be really appreciated... Thanks in advance...

  • How can i open Nikon D610 RAW files in Element 12 ?

    How can i open Nikon D610 RAW files in Element 12 ?

    You need the ACR 8.3 plug-in to open D610 NEF files.
    Check what Help / About Plug-ins / Camera Raw reports for the version number. 
    If it is something less than 8.3, update to the ACR 8.3 plug-in using Help / Updates from the Editor.  If that says there are no updates, then uninstall and re-install and try again.
    If it is already ACR 8.3 then the files are likely corrupted by using an obsolete version of Nikon Transfer or ViewNX with them.
    You can fix that corruption using a utility from the following webpage, where 14-bits is likely what you’d want to specify, and only use Nikon utilities that are as new as your camera:
