How Do I Stop Quattro Pro from Converting Access and Excel Files?

Ever since I installed WordPerfect 7, I've had periodic difficulties of having stored Excel files open in Quattro Pro. Normally, I can easily correct that by retrieving the files from within Excel. But now a more difficult problem has presented
itself. Yesterday, I tried exporting an Access file into Excel and Quattro Pro opened. Short of deleting Quattro Pro is there anyone I can stop it from trying to convert my Excel and Access files?

Thanks for your response. However, your answer raises another problem. After installing an HP M476nw printer a couple of weeks ago, Internet Explorer shut down, and I can't get it back up so to speak. I've read all of Microsoft's How to
Install Internet Explorer 10 (and Internet Explorer 11) in Windows 7 online support; but when I try to do so, I keep getting an error message which in substance states" you can't install this version because you've already installed a latter version of
IE. What's a fellow to do? I've tried uninstalling Internet Explorer and beginning with a cold boot; but, nothing seems to work. So, at least until I can find a solution to that problem, I guess I'm stuck with Firefox. Sigh.

My mac is converting Word and Excel files into Pages and Numbers files when I click to open them (or download and open them) from an email. I do I get this to stop? It's really aggravating.

My mac is converting Word and Excel files into Pages and Numbers files when I click to open them from an email. Downloading them and opening them doesn't help. How do I make this stop? I don't use iLife and don't want to; my clients are using Office and it's easier for me, except when I have to copy and paste everything they send me from an iLife file back to Word and Excel. Help!!! It's like Apple has become Microsoft, forcing us to use their apps.

Do you have Word & Excel installed, if yes, navigate in the finder to an example of each, right click and select 'Get Info' scroll down to 'Open With' and select the appropriate program, check the box that says 'Change All'

It doesn't look like you can. But that's how you tell they are a hyperlink. Is this a problem?

How can I stop my screen from going on and off when I play games ?

HOw can I stop my screen from going on and off all the time when I touch it.

Maybe it is a hardware problem, but you will not know that unless you start eliminating all possible software issues. Try this. Close all apps in the recents tray and reboot your iPad.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

How do I stop FH Mx from converting spot colors to cmyk on export to pdf

I have Freehand Mxa on my PC. I created a couple of rectangles and filled with two Pantone colors from my swatch pallet.
I exported to pdf and the spot colors converted to cymk. Shucks! How do I stop that?
(When I print directly to my Adobe Distiller print driver the spot colors are retained as they should in my pdf.)
In the Freehand export function there is a setup dialog box just below the "cancel" button. When that opens there is only a drop down button allowing conversion to cmyk and cmyk/rgb. So, I am guessing that is not where I can tell Freehand to leave my spots alone.
What am I doing wrong?
I was going to attach the small test file but the system did allow. Hope my description is enough to render a solution.

The only thing you're doing wrong is using FH's PDF export. It creates PDF files that are adequate for viewing online or printing to composite inkjet printers, but it doesn't support spot colors.
There are many more reasons why you shouldn't use FH's PDF export for print work. See this technote for limitations of PDF export.

When you need to retain spot colors, print to a Postscript file and Distill.

How do I stop Apple Script from leaving a Text.txt file with each image downloaded using Photo Downloader in Adobe Photoshop CS4_Bridge???

I use Adobe Photoshop CS4_Bridge _Photo Downloader to import images from CF Cards into my 11" Mac Book Air. I have an issue with the Text files
that seem to accompany each and every image that I do not need. How do I stop Apple Script (which I assume is the culprit in this case) from interferring with this process.

Your iWeb Site is stored not on your iDisk, but on a file named Domain.sites in your ~/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb/ Folder.
If , for whatever reason, you wipe your HD and/or lose this file (Get a new computer, Re-Install your OS, Stolen Laptop, Crashed HD, Etc.) without backing-up your Domain.sites file then you will have to re-build your iWeb sites from scratch again.
Of course you can edit your Published HTML files in a different program such as Dreamweaver or even Text Edit. You just can't edit Published HTML files in iWeb. Not at this time at least.
Use iWebBackup to backup your Domain file to a Blank CD or DVD. Backing up your Domain file to another folder on your computer is not fully backing it up. If your computer gets stolen you still lost the file but if you have your Domain file burned onto a CD you have a backup!
Download iWebBackup Here
You can use iWebExtender to automatically consolidate your files into one folder and delete multiple images.

How Can I stop Elements 7 from searching for a memory file?

Recently, every time I turn on Elements 7 it starts searching for a missing file each time it encounters a photo with a "?" in the corner. I must have pressed a key somewhere to start this function but now I can't get it to stop. I can only continue to another photo if I press cancel while it is searching but I have to do this for each "?" marked picture. Is there any way of cancelling this feature? Thanks in anticipation.

Two solutions:
1. Uncheck the option Edit > Preferences > Files > Automatically Search For And Reconnect Missing Files.
2. Either reconnect the missing files or delete them from the catalog, using the File > Reconnect > All Missing command. See this FAQ for tips on how to use the command:

Leaving missing files in your catalog doesn't have any benefit.

How do i stop the plugin from showing up and crshin??

how can i stop plugin from showing up while i play my games??

Use VMware Fusion? But seriously, Fusion does what you want. It just puts a mini VM control menu at the top when running full screen (and that's configurable, too), so the main menu bar doesn't appear at all. Which means that it's up to Parallels to handle this. Are you running Parallels 7, which is designed for Lion? If you are and Parallels still doesn't offer something similar, you need to contact Parallels.

How can I stop my iPhone4 from turning off and on automatically?

Hi,
I would highly appreciate it if someone could take a moment and help me regarding my iPhone4 issues. I had my iPhone resting on my desk unplugged for quite some time, and when I decided to make a call, the phone was really hot I could not hold it against my face, the phone turned off and the call was lost. I look at the screen and it was turning off and on automatically, it's been doing so for 3hrs and I don't know what to do. I've already tried to turn it off and it won't even turn off. I'm contemplating whether to go to an AT&T store for advice or call the apple store. It's Friday 08/23/2013 and this hasn't happened to me before, will someone please help? Thanks in advance.

How do I create a DVD from existing M2V and AC3 files?

I have previously used Compressor 4 to render a M2V file and an AC3 file from which I burned a DVD 'job'. Now, a week later, I wish to go back and burn another DVD from these files, (without rendering them again). How do I use these EXISTING files to create another DVD (using Compressor 4)?
Thanks,
Geoff

If you anticipate that you may need multiple disks, the way to do it is to select Hard Drive as your output device/ That makes a disk image, from which you can burn multiple copies.
WIth the separate files already created, you could bring them into an authoring program like Toast. But if you want to re-use them in Compressor, I think your only option is to multiplex them in something like MPEG STreamclip and bring the new file back into Compressor.
Probably easier to redo the Compressor job with the original source.

How to send audio via RTP from captured device and media file together?

Hi there,
I have this application which can send audio stream via RTP using AVTransmit.java.
In this application, there is this button which will play a short tune (via java.applet.AudioClip) when i clicked on it.
My question is, how can I transmit this short tune to the other side along with the current audio stream via RTP?
Thank you!

Hi there,
Thank you for the replies. I have tried creating another stream to send the media file. Although it's workable, the other side is unable to handle 2 incoming stream. The receving end does not hear a combined audio. Sometimes i hear the media file's audio, sometimes i hear the other.
Is it possible to merged the media file's audio into the existing rtp stream on the fly? Or piped the media file's audio to the capture datasource?
