How to tell firefox to always use xdg-open?

Firefox has always been a pain when it comes to file associations. It's very annoying to specify which program I want to open a specific file type everytime - especially when I have to find the program in /usr/bin every time. Is there any way to make firefox use xdg-open or exo-open for ANY file type?

By modifying the source code? Should be easy to do. Or maybe there is a patch for this somewhere (but I haven't found one when I was looking for it).

  • How to tell Firefox "Okay for THIS site to redirect"?

    Websites for huge, bureaucratic corporations sometimes try to redirect the browser to other pages. How do I tell Firefox that this is okay -- for a particular website?

    See:
    * Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
    The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

  • How to tell AE CS6 to use bundled Mocha rather than Pro?

    I recently upgraded my bundled Mocha from AE CS6 to Mocha Pro 4, but for some unknown reason, it won't let me export shape data in Mocha.  There seems to be no data at all, as even trying to paste in Notepad results in nothing.  Tracking data, however, works fine (both in AE and Notepad).
    Since I cannot figure out any solution in Mocha, the only thing I can do is use bundled Mocha rather than Pro... but I do not know how to tell AE to use bundled Mocha rather than Pro when I click 'Track In Mocha' (...a setting which was changed when Pro was installed).
    Does anyone know where/how I can switch it to Mocha bundled when you click on Track In Mocha?  (or, does anyone have any idea why Pro would not export shape data, whereas the same project in bundled Mocha did?)
    If anyone has any answers or theories, please let me know ASAP, as I have a project I'm trying to complete, and (as luck always has it) the weekend is now upon us, and support is closed over the weekend.

    I tried connecting MBP and TC via Ethernet - after verifying the settings that you suggested - and it does not work: if I turn Airport off, Time Machine says it can't find the TC
    Any other sugestions?
    Ok, then ethernet is not getting an ip address from the TC and is plugged in wrongly..
    You still didn't give me any idea of what actual model the linksys is.. and why is it in the network.. Is it a modem router?? If you have cable internet just throw it away and use the TC.
    If you have the linksys as modem, then bridge it.. turn off wireless and run pppoe client on the TC.
    If the ISP does not allow pppoe client mode then simply use the TC in bridge. Turn off all wireless in the linksys and just use the TC.
    Still need info on how everything is setup to analyse the problem.

  • How to tell PDDoc.Save() to use CombatibillityLevel 1.4?

    My application is using OLE to open PDF Files in Acrobat 9 and store them optimized for fast web access, again. Unfortunately, Acrobat stores the files as PDF 1.7 even if they were PDF 1.4 before.
    Is there any possibility to tell Arcrobat 9 to use PDF 1.4 (no matter if generall configuration or OLE command)?
    I´ve already tried to set the compabillty level in the distiller configuration but it seems, that PDDoc.Save always ignores these configurations.

    ok, thank you very much. It seems I have to look for a third party tool to convert my PDFs to PDFs with fast web access enabled. Just one last question: Is there a way to configure my Acrobat Installation to always save any pdf in PDF Version 1.4 (like the CombatibillityLevel Setting in Distiller)?

    I am using Firefox 30.0. I open a page that has links on it to see some PDF files. When I click on the link, Firefox use to open a new tab and display the PDF file.

  • How to tell firefox I am not in houston, tx

    I can not find why firefox thinks I am in Houston, tx, any search for shopping gives me stores in Houston, tx, I live in Alabama.

    Says I am in Houston, tx and my IP address is 70.196.110.201, neither of these are right.
    Don't see anyway to tell Firefox my location.

    Hi Atul,
    I am using CCM 2.0 and SRM 5.0 (EBP5.5).
    We are not using XI, so i guess we cant use the program "/ccm/file_upload".
    we have migrated the product master data from R/3.
    We have developed a report which takes product category as input and gives out flat file in csv format containg all the items in that prod category.
    Then we upload the file in CCM by logging thro the brpwser.
    Similarly, i can develop another program which will give me a CSV file foll all those items changed in R/3 in a day.
    Then we can upload that file in CCM.
    But i have doubt if it will update the existing items in catalog.
    Hope I could make myself clear.
    Thanks

    the first MTI record should be the source record ...ie. it should have transaction quantity as negative.
    new set of MTI records should have positive transaction quantities.
    Also ensure that sum of transaction quantities for the set should be 0...
    What is the error that you are getting?

  • How to define the application to use for opening each file type (pdf, jpg,...)

    I installed an external application, and this new application has been configured by defect that it will be used to open all files with extensions like jpg, pdf, etc...
    I want to revert this situation and define again the proper application I want to use for opening each file type. How can I do this in Lion?
    Thanks,

    Pick a representative file.
    Get info. (Command-i)
    There you will see a place "Open with" where you can select the application for that file.
    Hit the "Change all..." button to do this for all files of this type.

  • Any clue how to tell firefox that .qfx files should start quicken 2007?

    Firefox 3.6.3 (Mac) only knows about .ofx files from Quicken. I find no obvious way to add
    .qfx to the list, and the dialog ("open with this app", "always do this from now on) has
    no effect. eh?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Later version of Firefox, used to work, Once upon a time.

    At the risk of being obvious, I have to say Duhhh - been there done that, a couple of times a weeks for the last many months. Hasn't worked. I mean Firefox will direct the each file to Quicken for the particular incident , but it DOES NOT "Do this for files of that type from now on".
    And, BTW, it used to.

  • How To tell ADF Framework to use my authenticated subject?

    Hi,
    let's say that I have a subject instance which is authenticated through Weblogic server. Now I want to use this authenticated subject to protect my resources using ADF Security. So how should I tell this to ADF framework programmaically. For example I can think of storing my principal and roles in some type of objects and store it in session in a format that's understandable by the framework. By understandable I mean ADFContext.getCurrent.getSecurityContext.isUserAuthenticated returns true, getPrincipal returns my authenticated principal. I appreciate your helps.
    Best Regards,
    Salim

    Hi Chris,
    I want to implement programmatic authentication. I was able to authenticate given the LoginModule (weblogic.security.auth.login.UsernamePasswordLoginModule), LoginContext (javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext) and a callback handler.
    try {
    loginContext.login();
    Subject subject = loginContext.getSubject();
    It authenticates successfully. But he problem is that it does not push authenticated subject into session. My guess is that there should be a way to configure application server to use this subject for the session. I understand that adf security just delegates calls to application server. I thought may be there is a way to do it with adf. Thanks for the reply.

  • How to tell if WiFi is used by apps and features t...

    Hi there,
    I just started to use the Nokia Lumia 800 Windows Phone.
    To discover the phone and all it's abilities I consume a lot of data from the internet (chat messages, photo's, websites etc.)
    My subscription with my phone provider is limiting the amount of data to 250MB. More data will result in extra costs.
    At home and WiFi hotspots, I connect using WiFi.
    I see on top the screen the 3G symbol as well as the WiFi symbol when connected.
    But my question is: How do I know for use that when I am connected to a WiFi server, it will download data from the internet using WiFi , rather then the 3G which will have impact on my MB usage of my subscription.
    Additionally: how can I see how many MB (data) I have consumed sofar..?
    Thanks for the help.

    "Additionally: how can I see how many MB (data) I have consumed sofar..?"
    This is not a function from what others have told me on here.
    To be honest its not a function on Android either.  However on Android there are a number of apps available that record useage.  Some of the better ones even turn off 3G when you get to your limit.
    I emailed the developer of the one I used on Android and he said he had no intention of developing any thing for Windows :-(

  • ISA570 - How to make my WebServer always uses the same Public IP

    Hi all
    I have reserved one IP of my pool to my exchange server.
    The Reverse DNS is configured for this IP.
    My exchange server is sometimes rejected by the other because it is using the first public IP of my pool to go on Internet, and not the one i would like.
    So in My ISA570, how to specify the public IP of my pool my exchange server will used ?
    Fo the moment, all my alias for each IP are created, the port forwarding is OK for my exchange server to send and receive mails, et the web OWA is OK.
    I have tried from the advanced NAT to force like this (the last line in this picture), but when it is enable, all my subsite are not able to join the Web Exchange interface...
    I am sure i made a mistake, could you please help me ?
    Thanks
    Kevin

    Is it an option to use Static NAT instead of Port Forwarding?  By that I mean, do you need to share the one Public IP from  your Pool of IPs with anything other than the Exchange Server?
