How do you convert what looks like coding in textedit to a regular file?

i have downloaded a file to come up in textEdit but it has downloaded in some sort of coding. how do I transform it into readable language?

Hard to say without more info about the file, where you got it, etc.  If you email me one I could probably figure it out (tom at bluesky dot org).

  • How do you make it look like a book?

    Hi,
    I noticed that many best selling books they have along the edges, like a hard book cover.
    Then in the middle of the page is a page crease.
    These two elements make it look much more like a book.
    How do I create these elements for my book?
    How do they use the headers and footers?
    Many thanks,
    Elaine

    Those books were not made using iBooks Author.
    iBA books (hybrid epub) will not provide that style/look.
    You'll need to create a standard epub if you want that type of navigation/presenation to the suer. Apple's Pages (also Indesign, etc.) will output the epub format that will provide the exact look in your example/screenshot.
    See iBA Tips and Tricks 01 - on 'page turn animation'.
    See your other thread, same topic:

  • SOAP RECEIVER and WSDL-what specifies how my SOAP REQUEST should look like?

    Hi
    I am sending a request to a webservice (SOAP RECEIVER) but the webservice in question does not have a wsdl. I have created my own wsdl based on another example but when mapping to the REQUEST part of this and routing it through my SOAP RECEIVER channel it appears that it has NO SOAP-ENV only the pure XML in the request sent to the webservice.
    I have UNTICKED the "No SOAP envelope.." so all is pretty basic.
    What specifies how the REQUEST sent to the webservice through the SOAP RECEIVER comm channel should look like?
    I thought that the SOAP RECEIVER ADAPTER did this automatically, but in my scenariao, it looks as if it something else as well? Is it the XSD or WSDL that dictates how the SOAP REQUEST should look like?
    Cheers

    > I thought that the SOAP RECEIVER ADAPTER did this automatically, but in my scenariao, it looks as if it something else as well? Is it the XSD or WSDL that dictates how the SOAP REQUEST should look like?
    No. The SOAP adapter adds the SOAP enveloped, no matter how the WSDL looks like.
    I have no idea why this does not work for you. Check whether the channel is active and the cache is refreshed.

  • Hi guys, can you please explain how to perform automatic system scan with CleanApp - it looks like it wants me to manually chose files to delete and I just want an automatic scan (like cleanmymac does)

    Slowness...First Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk.
      You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Utility reports and if DU was able to repair them. Disk Utility's Disk Repair is not perfect and may not find or repair all directory issues. A stronger utility may be required to finish the job.
      After that Repair Permissions. No need to report Permissions errors....we all get them.

    The candara font in italics is turning my words into what looks like another language (it's only happening in the italics version).  Does anyone know how to fix it? (I'm running OSX 10.8.3 on a new iMac and the only change I've made recently is to install MS Office for Mac 2011)

    This is what the font turns it into (it's supposed to say Chrysler Building & New York Public Library).  The font came with Pages which is what I'm working in.  It worked before but isn't now.

  • Javascript is not working on some sites, and some sites also display in what looks like arabic. whats going on? how do i fix the javascript problem? javascript IS functioning in other browsers.

    Site displays fine in IE but in Mozilla, displays in text only, with the message: "Billboard requires a JavaScript enabled browser to get the full experience." Getting similar messages on other sites. Also, some sites are displaying in part English, part what looks like Arabic to me. Whats that about? Havent played with any language settings- in the browser OR on my computer. The affected sites listed are both displaying in text only. The login page for Mozilla website is one of the sites i mentioned displaying in part (Arabic?)

    Reload a web page and bypass the cache with:
    * Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
    * Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    * Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
    See [[Keyboard shortcuts]] and [[Mouse shortcuts]]
    * "Remove the Cookies" from sites that cause problems: Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • How Do You Print What OS X Renders and What You See Like the Lines on a Table on OpenOffice?

    Hi. How do you print what you OS X's graphics is rendering (what you see is what you get). I'm trying to print a calling card on OpenOffice Apache, latest but it would not print the guidelines (the lines when you use table, columns and rows) and it would only print the letters.
    Thank you in advance.
    God bless.

    If the lines are printing but they are too faint to see them easily, then there could be a rendering setting that could improve the line density.
    But if the lines are not at all visible then maybe the application is set not to print them. So check the Preferences or the printing options for OpenOffice? There might be a setting about the printing of gridlines.
    FYI - MS Excel has the gridlines disabled for printing but they can be enabled via the Excel print dialog.

  • Some pictures in I-Photo seem to be corrupted. When I click on them, the photo comes up for a second, then the picture turns black with a white fuzzy circle inside it and what looks like an explanation mark. Some older, some newer,  no common thread.

    Some pictures in I-Photo seem to be corrupted. When I click on them, they come up for a second, then turn black with a white circle in the middle and what looks like an explanation mark. There does not seem to be any rhyme or reason to the photos that are a problem, some older ones, some newer, some albums have none, some albums have a lot.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    time to time (when I have a chance), I will go to Finder, bring up ALL Images and start going through them to label them (before I put a label on them, they are simply listed as 123 jpg, 124 jpg etc.).
    You're damaging the Library doing that, and that's the cause of your problem.
    Never, ever, ever use the  All Images search and work on items in yoyr iPhoto Library. They must only be accessed via the iPhoto window.
    Restroe from abck up or try rebuild the Library:
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    Next: You need to learn how to use iPhoto. There's no need to be dragging things to the desktop:

  • I have what looks like a second dock and a second command-tab window?

    In my house we've got two macs using the wi-fi, a Mac Pro late 2013 running Yosemite and a Mac Mini also running Yosemite. What's strange is sometimes I get what looks like a second dock with only one icon, Chrome (my default browser). The Chrome icon has a little circle with a monitor above it. When I command-tab, that same icon is in a second command-tab box, and it's there even when Chrome is closed. I can't figure out how to make these things go away. Here are pictures to show what I'm talking about:
    and the tab-box:
    Thanks!

    Are you using continuity/hand-off?
    I am not using it myself but I have seen son presentations where the "second" dock represents an application running on your iPhone where your current task can resumed by using that feature

  • How do you convert a jar file into a java file,  ?

    how do you convert a jar file into a java file ?
    I am new to Java ,but have a little experience in C++ and Visual Basic.
    I want to edit and maybe create my own mobile games that are written or converted into jar files.
    At the moment I am using Java NetBeans , and Easy Java( the java pad).
    However the only solution I tried was to open the JAR file in winrar and see that its made up of png picture files,
    midi music files and class files. Unfortunately when I uncompressed the JAR file , there was NO java file to be seen and the JAVA editors Do not show the class file like a Java file. So why is there no extension Java file in the mobile JAR game ?

    I want to edit and maybe create my own mobile games that are written or converted into jar files.Eh?
    Are you saying you want to take existing games and modify them? If the creators allow you to modify their source, then they'll provide you with that source (the .java files). If you're allowed to add things but not modify, you don't need .java files. Just documentation, which, again, the creators should be providing.
    Or are you saying you want to create your own games and distribute them in jar files? If so, there's no need to turn jars into .java.

  • HOW DO YOU CONVERT IPHOTO 8.1 TO APERTURE FILE FORMATT

    how do you convert iphoto 8.1.2 photos to aperture file formatt?

    I believe this is still possible if the iPhoto library has not been up graded.
    No joy, Frank. This is what I get, when I try to import an older iPhoto Library into Aperture 3.4.3 using "File > Import > Library":
    Aperture 3.4.x insists on the library being converted to 9.4.x. To be able to import earlier iPhoto Libraries you would have to fall back on Aperture 3.2.x; temporarily install a second, older Aperture version, create a new Aperture library with this version, import the iPhoto Libraries, then open this Aperture library in Aperture 3.4.3 to convert it to a current version.
    bertpa, how many iphoto photos are we talking abourt? If you are having several iPhoto libraries with thousands of edited photos, it really would be worth it to upgrade to iPhoto 9.4 to convert your libraries. iPhoto 9.4 will convert your library to a format with Master-version pairs like aperture uses. If you import this to Aperture, you will be able to import each edited image as a single image with two versions (original and edited)- importing from previous iPhoto versions you would be importing each edited image as two separate images - an edited image and the original. This would be wasteful, if you have many photos in Aperture, and it would cause a lot of additional work to get these duplicates sorted out. But if you only have a handful of iPhoto images, launch iPhoto and use the "File > Export" command to export your photos from iPhoto to a folder. You will have to do it twice - once to export the originals and once to export the edited versions. Then import your exported iPhoto photos into Aperture.

  • How do you convert a Modbus Datatype TIME in Lookout

    How do you convert a Modbus Variable with a Datatype of TIME in a Lookout Expression to display MMS.

    The URL provided above must be an internal N.I. link - for us folks on the outside it's
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/1A3BB7B3299C11C78625680C004DA744
    I use a time_to_word function in the modicon when I need to display a data type of time in Lookout. What you get when looking at the register with the modbus object in Lookout is the time in msecs - just divide by 1000 to get the seconds. But you must 'build' the display for minutes, hours, etc. The numeric displays in Lookout are not
    based on seconds, they are based on days as the above knowledge base article indicates. The following will work on a word read from the modicon, and may or may not work with a data type of time. The expression
    (Modbus1.400001/86400000)
    first takes the number in msecs and divides by the number of msecs in a day. This puts the number into a fraction of a day that Lookout can then display using the numeric formats such as "HH:MMS". I know it’s a little clumsy to divide that number for every time value – but hopefully you don’t have a lot of these expressions. Hope this helps.

  • How do you convert mov to wav files?

    How do you convert .mov files to .wav files in iMovie 10? I can no longer find the Share/Quicktime/Options tabs.

    * the .mov container can be handled by any PC with a free download of Quicktime for Windows; but many PC users hesitate doing so, because on the Apple website it looks like you instali iTunes too... many PC don't like that...
    * .mp4 can be handled by any actual PC mediaplayer... again: PC users are used to import .wmv (or the very old .avi container/not supported by YouTube)
    * for exporting .wmv on a Mac, you need to buy a licence at www.flip4mac.com
    * mpeg... the MotionPictureExpertGroup published many codecs... mpeg1, mpeg2, mpeg4, h261, h264. .... but using iM as exporter, all these mpegs will be "hidden" in the QT container .mov... with QTpro you can strip-off the container, but I recommed the beginner to use one of the above mentioned options......
