Mac OS X: Double-Clicking a File Opens the Wrong Application - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2291
-= Changing the application used to open all files of a certain kind (written with reference to OSX 10.4 but may not have changed) =-
1) In a Finder window highlight a file of the kind you want to change the application to open that kind of file.
2) While that file is highlighted, select File > Get Info or press command (apple or propeller icon) + i to get a file information window.
3) In the lower part of the info window there is an "open with" menu with a list of applications.
4) If your application is already in the box then it is the default application for opening that kind of file and you don't need to do anything more.  Close the get info window.
5) If the application showing in the menu is not the one with which you wish to open the file then select a new application. If your application does not appear there then select the "other..." and track down the application (usually in the Applications folder at the main level of the computer).
6) If you wish to change all files of this type to open with this application in future, make sure the "change all" button is selected.
7) Close the get info window.

  • How do I find out the exact path of each and every file that LabVIEW finds and loads into memory for a given top level vi?

    How do I find out the exact path of each and every file that LabVIEW finds and loads into memory for a given top level vi? There is probably a trivial, easy way to get this info, but I have not yet found it!  Thanks..

    Or if you want to grab all the paths programatically, try the attached VI.
    Open the top level that you want all the paths from and close all others, then open the
    attached and run it. It will return an array of all the VIs that the VI
    in question uses, including vi.lib VIs. You can filter these as well if
    you like.

    Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.

  • Firefox and default site - when I open firefox google comes up fine - but any other sibsequesnt page I have to type in google can I set up a default page for every page that I open up in a window

    Hello
    When I open Firefox, google comes up as my default page. This is fine but if I open additional windows next to the default page nothing comes up.
    Can you set google or any other page to be the default page in any window I open. It is annoying to have to keep on typing google in every time I want to open a new page with firefox

    You can modify the pref <b>keyword.URL</b> on the <b>about:config</b> page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".
    * Google "I'm Feeling Lucky": http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=

  • How can I get iTunes to locate and play all my music files?

    How can I get iTunes to locate and play all my music files?

    I have this problem too. I am researching now. Here is what I know so far. If you right click a song then get ifo the it will say Protected AAC or purchased AAC. Protected wont play on sonos, purchased will play on sonos. It seems that all my protected were purchased 2005 to 2009 or so. I am trying to find out if apply will convert these for a small dfee or if I use the itunes cloud these tunes will convert for me. downloading and reloading is not an option for me. Pretty much a money grab by apple either way. I am sure Steve is smiling.

  • How can i play iTunes on apple tv from my mac?  i used to have an icon that synced the two but i can't find that icon anymore

    how can i play iTunes on apple tv from my mac?  i used to have an icon that synced the two but i can't find that icon anymore

    If you are using the 2nd or 3rd gen Apple TV (little black box) then it would have no syncing or storage capability.
    iTunes content would be accessed using home sharing.

  • HT1349 How do I set up a separate icloud account? Both my wife and I have an iPhone 4s and an iPad, but only one Mac. We are tired of our "stuff" getting mixed up together when we sync.

    How do I set up a separate icloud account? Both my wife and I have an iPhone 4s and an iPad (1 and 3), but only one Mac. We are tired of our "stuff" getting mixed up together when we sync. Thanks much

    You don't need separate iCloud accounts if you want to simply sync unique content to each device using iTunes. I have three iDevices using one ID and one iTunes library and each device has it's own content on it. You need to set up the sync configuration for each device. This is what I recommend.
    First turn off auto sync in iTunes. Launch iTunes on the Mac and go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from automatically syncing. Click OK and then quit iTunes.
    Connect one of your devices to the Mac and launch iTunes.
    Click on the device name on the left side under the devices heading.
    Click on a tab in iTunes - Apps for instance.
    Click on the Apps that you want to sync to that device.
    Make sure that the Sync Apps heading is checked.
    Follow the same procedure for all of the other tabs in iTunes ..... Music, Photos, Movies and so on.
    After you have finished making all of your selections, click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes.
    When you are done, eject the first device and do the same thing with the other device. iTunes will now remember the sync configuration on each device.
    You can change that configuration any time that you like by following the steps outlined above.
    If you want to continue to auto sync, turn it back on in the iTunes preferences as described above.

  • How do you set up your iphone so when you connect to another computer you have to enter a password before accessing the information?

    Hi
    I just want to know how you can set up your iphone so when you connect to another computer you have to enter a password before accessing the information? My friend connected hers to my computer and it asked for a password so I know its a function.
    I have a phone password enabled so its not that, any help would be great.

    The Passcode Lock prevents syncing the iPhone with iTunes or accessing any data on the iPhone when the iPhone is connected to another computer different from the computer being used for syncing the iPhone.

    How can i set songs within a playlist, or an entire playlist, so that they are not included when using the shuffle function on IPOD Classic?
    Is this possible?

    You can set any song to Skip when shuffling.
    In your iTunes Library, highlight the song and right-click/Get Info. On the Options tab is the Skip when shuffling box. Select that and then Sync the iPod with your Library.

  • I just downloaded iTunes on my new PC and all the music that I have purchased through ITunes that was backed up on the cloud won't play. It is telling I must authorize this computer before it play pre purchased music. how do I authorize my computer.

    I just downloaded iTunes on my new PC and all the music that I have purchased through ITunes that was backed up on the cloud won't play. It is telling me I must authorize this computer before it can play pre purchased music. how do I authorize my computer to play this music?
    Thank you for any assistance.

    Tigon's already got you covered here. But I'll chime in with some English localisation advice.
    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

  • I just got my new iPhone4 set up today and it has pulled in every email that is in my desk top as being unread.  Yet I have read all the emails.  Still the iPhone thinks they are unread.  Does anyone know how I can delete all of these at one time?

    I just got my new iPhone4 set up today and it has pulled in every email that is in my desk top as being unread.  Yet I have read all the emails.  Still the iPhone thinks they are unread.  Does anyone know how I can delete all of these emails at one time from the phone?

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

  • How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone have to enter the password before executing firefox

    My younger sister executed my firefox just at this afternoon(she originally use IE), and she saw something that can't be seen. How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone have to enter the password before executing firefox?

    Also see this for an English version of Profile Password:
    *Profile Password: http://nic-nac-project.de/~kaosmos/profilepassword-en.html#PPF
    It is an extension to protect the profile with a password, but being an extension that protection can easily be bypassed by starting Firefox in [[Safe mode]].<br />
    So do not rely on it.<br />
    If you want to protect content then you have to use methods supported by the OS like a separate user account with a password or an encrypted file system.

  • How do I set a Phase Listener to only run for a specific page?

    How do I set a Phase Listener to only run for a specific page?
    I understand that a Phase Listener runs for ever page in the application, however I want a phase listener to only run for one page at the beginning of the application.
    I discovered I can't use a Filter, because the JSF Application instance always returns null.
    Thus, I thought a Phase Listener would be a good approach.
    Thoughts?

  • How do i download itunes on one computer (64-bit) for a different computer(32-bit)?

    How do I download itunes on one computer (64-bit) for a different computer (32-bit)?  The download page automatically detects my computer as 64-bit, but I want to download the installer for a different computer that is 32-bit.

    I ended up changing the user agent reported by my web browser to fool the website into thinking I was using a different web browser. On Google Chrome, press Ctrl-Shift-I to open the Developer Tools, then click the gear in the lower-right corner of the window. Check "Override User Agent" then select "Internet Explorer 7" from the drop-down.
    Once upon a time, you could download the 32-bit version of iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/download/, but the download link hasn't been updated recently and points to an old version of iTunes.
    If, like me, you think Apple should provide a link to the 32-bit version from the main download page, I would recommend giving Apple your feedback.
