How do I change my setting so documents no longer open automatically in an old microsoft word vs word10?

I was trying to download a document, however, it wanted to open it in word10 but I don't have that installed on my computer. I then browsed for the old version of word I have and preceded to have it automatically open the document there but when it did, it was symbols and things that were not readable. I tried to download the document again and now it pulls up word with that same document. I need to know how I can go have it set so that it doesn't automatically do that anymore but ask how it did initially? Help!

hello letjeff, it depends if you've done this change in firefox only or on a windows system level...
for filetype association in firefox please see: [[Change what Firefox does when you click on or download a file]]
for filetypes in windows 7 see: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Change-which-programs-Windows-uses-by-default

When clicking on an attachment to an email, it will only save rather than save or open. How can I change the setting to allow me to open an attachment before deciding whether or not to save it?

There is a dialog box that appears when I click on an email attachment that asks whether to open or save a .pdf document, and whether I always want that action to be taken. However, when clicking a .doc or .docx document, I no longer have the choice. How can I revive the dialog box to choose to 'open' the file rather than being forced to 'save' the file?

You can rename such files with a .html file extension and give them a .jpg file extension to make applications see them as an image.<br />
If Windows is stubborn and keeps the .html file extension and you end up with image.jpg.html then add quotes around the name ("image.jpg")

How can I silently print all PDF documents that are opened automatically?

For a special terminal PC I want to print all PDF's that are opened to be printed automatically and without user interaction. The PDF is loaded in an iFrame in the browser, this PDF then needs to be printed.
I don't want to modify the PDF's, the PDF's are supplied by another resource.
I was thinking about using a folder level script that prints each PDF document automatically as soon as it is opened, but I don't know how to accomplish this.

I don't think the installation process will allow that unless the printer is connected.
Incorrect. Win or Mac, you can install a printer driver w/o the printer being connected.
I have tried MS PowerPoint (which can't seem to accept paper wider than 56 inches) and have used NeoOffice Draw
You're using the wrong tools. PP shouldn't even be in consideration; I don't know about NeoOffice, but I tried its cousin LibreOffice, and it has issues with custom paper sizes; which is not surprising, given what these apps were designed for.
What you need for actual banners (not web page banners) is a vector drawing tool or a DTP app. I'd say Illustrator or InDesign, but Adobe CS is expensive, and, if you're thinking of PowerPoint for this job, you're not ready for it.
You can try Pages; although not quite DTP, it can do the job and it's inexpensive. There are other options, such as Swift Publisher (a DTP app) or Intaglio (a drawing app) -- both are more expensive than Pages, but still affordable; or you can go open source with Scribus (DTP) or InkScape (vector; requires X11). You already know the ups and downs of using open source. (These are just examples; you can find others if you look for them.)
Although it's better to have Kinko's printer driver, to make sure of the correct options, you don't actually need it to print to PDF. You should be able to define a custom page size (eg, 12in × 72in) and create the PDF from it. Any app which uses the Mac OS X standard print function should be able to do it.

Help !! how can i chang these setting !!!

I can not login to Identity Server amconsole , after I change 3 wrong setting in Identity Server console

3.
Identity Managemen t > Services > Authentication > Membership>DN to Start User Search
from dc=xxx to o=xxx,dc=xxx
and logout Identity Server
The three setting mistake make me can' t login Identity Server console
how can I change these setting from o=xxx,dc=xxx to dc=xxx by change XML
Tks

Hi
You could modify the necessary values in the LDAP directory that the identity server stis on top of. ie:
(using an ldap browser) go to the following location in the tree:
dc=xxx, ou=services, ou=iPlanetAMAuthLDAPService, ou=1.0, ou=OrganizationConfig, ou=default
There should be a "sunkeyvalue" attribute there with the following value:
iplanet-am-auth-ldap-base-dn=o=xxx,dc=xxx
change it to iplanet-am-auth-ldap-base-dn=dc=xxx
Then goto
dc=xxx, ou=services, ou=iPlanetAMAuthService, ou=1.0, ou=OrganizationConfig, ou=default
There should be a "sunkeyvalue" attribute there with the following value:
iplanet-am-auth-user-container=o=xxx,dc=xxx
change it to iplanet-am-auth-user-container=dc=xxx
Try to login using LDAP authentication (ie goto to the url "your webserver"/amserver/UI/Login?module=LDAP)
If that doesn't work, then you will probably have to edit the XML template for these services. This can be done as follows:
Goto dc=xxx, ou=services, ou=iPlanetAMAuthLDAPService, ou=1.0
There should be an attribute there called sunserviceschema, whose value is an xml document that specifies the service schema.
You will need to change the following element:
     <AttributeSchema cosQualifier="default" i18nKey="a103" name="iplanet-am-auth-ldap-base-dn" syntax="dn" type="list" >
          <DefaultValues>
<Value>o=xxx,dc=xxx</Value>
          </DefaultValues>
</AttributeSchema>
to
     <AttributeSchema cosQualifier="default" i18nKey="a103" name="iplanet-am-auth-ldap-base-dn" syntax="dn" type="list" >
          <DefaultValues>
<Value>dc=xxx</Value>
          </DefaultValues>
</AttributeSchema>
Then goto dc=xxx, ou=services, ou=iPlanetAMAuthService, ou=1.0
You will need to change the following element:
<AttributeSchema cosQualifier="default" i18nKey="a113" name="iplanet-am-auth-user-container" syntax="dn" type="single" >
          <DefaultValues>
<Value>o=xxx,dc=xxx</Value>
          </DefaultValues>
</AttributeSchema>
to:
<AttributeSchema cosQualifier="default" i18nKey="a113" name="iplanet-am-auth-user-container" syntax="dn" type="single" >
          <DefaultValues>
<Value>dc=xxx</Value>
          </DefaultValues>
</AttributeSchema>
After doing this, try to login using ldap authentication again.
Hope this helps

The only way that I know currently know of to remove old or incorrect email addresses from the Mail app is to reset the iPad back to factory defaults, which I assume that you don't want to to. You could try leaving feedback for Apple and maybe one day we'll day be able to edit them : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html#ipad

Sign out of iCloud.

I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"?

I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"? I have back up in the past but the last month I have not. I really want to keep the data.
So how can I go in and change the setting, It stays ofcourse at the apple screen with wheel. All info is there and the computer works fine, just cannot use it or have been able to log in.

wjosten is spot on. If you really want iCloud, then you will need to acquire a new or second hand MBP that can run Lion.
Ciao.

How can I change the setting to one appropriate to java1.2

Hello.
I am using WebLogic 4.5.1 .
and recently started to use JDK 1.2 instead of JDK 1.1.7.
So, I set [start]-[weblogic]-[Choose1.2JRE] in environment.
and then, if I execute T3Server, the message of
"javai.dll class path cannot be found " is displayed and the server is not
loaded.
However, javai.dll was in java1.1.X\bin.
I can assume that a setting is to java1.1.X.

Question about email setting: how do i change the setting so i need to login to check my email. Currently it automatically come to the inbox without the need to log in.

You don't. Email comes in either by push or when you invoke the email app. Ther is no password except when you first set up the account. If your iPad is not being used as your personal device and you need to shield emails from other users, then don't use the email app. Instead, use web mail if available from your provider.

How do I change my set up to allow my wife to connect to my iCloud accout too

How do I change my set up to allow my wife to connect to my iCloud accout too

You don't give a lot of information. Do you each have a separate device or Mac (or user account on the same Mac)? Do you each have your own separate iCloud accounts? If this is the case your wife can sign into your account in System Preferences (or Settings)>Mail Contacts and Calendars and check the data types she wants to sync. They will appear alongside her own iCloud data, though she will not be able to use Photo Stream with this account.

AIM IM The message “Hello” could not be delivered. The other person appears to be offline. The user is not accepting offline messages. How do I change this setting?

HI,
The simple shortest answer is that you can't (Change a Buddy's settings)
From your own end you can reply to the first Off Line IM you get on an AIM login (an accompanying IM for AIMSysMessage asks if you want them to Continue - replying No stops them)
IF you have stopped Off Line IMS than you can reset this at AIM Settings
You can log in here with AIM and Apple IDs that end in @mac.com and @me.com (iCloud issued @me.com name are an Exception)
In addition the Setting in iChat > Preferences > General Section that refers to setting the Status to Off Line on Quit stops the App starting up if iChat is not launched but the computer is ON

HT3916 When I order a movie from Apple TV for $4.99 I get charged $14.99 and it stays for 30 days instead of 24 hours - how do I change that setting?

Hi - I just got my new Apple TV setup - when I order a movie for $4.99 - I get charged $14.99, and instead of only staying for 24 hours, it now stays for 30 days - how do I change the setting so i'm only getting an overnight movie rental instead of buying it for 30 days?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It sounds as though you have purchased it to me, does it actually say anything about 30 days.
Rentals will stay available for 30 days, but if you start watching them the 24/48 hour timer starts counting down. This is the standard rental model, there is no alternative.

I just upgraded to 10.9. My exchange email won't load emails that are older than a few weeks old. How do I change this setting so I can see all my mail?

I just upgraded to 10.9. My exchange email won't load emails that are older than a few weeks old. How do I change this setting so I can see all my mail?

Plett81,
I'm having the exact same problem. It does not seem to be a settings issue but rather some sort of "problem" with mac mail. My Exchange provider was able to setup my mailbox on a test machine running Mavericks and everything pulled in fine, however I cannot duplicate on my upgraded system.
I was able to get rebuild my mailbox and get the older messages within my Exchange inbox, however none of my folders and old messages outside of the Inbox are downloading/synching.
**NOTE** I contacted Apple SUpport and they told me to call my email provider. I called my email provider which did as described above and they don't see a problem. SO as suspected it has something to do with the Mavericks update but I'm not sure Apple is willing to help. I might try contacting them one more time and see.
