I can't open .cfm (ColdFusion) files in Preview anymore.

Hello, I was able to open a .cfm form in Preview last week but for some reason I can no longer open them and when I click the file Preview pops up but nothing opens. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

download adobe reader for mac. even with adobe it's still weird. if you open adobe and then hit file-->open, you cannot select the .cfm file. However, right right click on the file you want to open and then hit 'open with' and then choose adobe reader. that worked for me.

  • Is anyone else annoyed that you can't open a normal file with preview in CS6 on the Windows platform

    Please, please , please restore the the ability of Photoshop to open with a preview on windows machines. That is; a single click on a file from within Photoshop gives a small preview image to tell you what it is you are opening.  This is crucial to professional photographers in the industry working quickly with lots of images as I do in the medical/scientific photography field. 
    Every other version of Photoshop has had this feature and I can tell you a lot of power users like myself are not using CS6 just because a single click doesn't preview what you are opening.  My company just spent $10,000 upgrading six machines and no-one is using CS6 for work - they are sticking with CS5.  CS6 is only good for 'playing around' with photos, if production is key, then to save time, we need to see what we are opening on a single click - it's a no brainer!  Check the forums to see this that is true, and if you are reading this and agree with me, write and tell adobe to fix this - pronto!

    Thanks for correcting my quote/unquote quotes.  Yes you are right.  Not a very good use of them.  I took time out to look at your photos.  Very nice.  I also play around with photoshop on my ladscape and fine art photos when I am not trying to make a living (that is paying my mortgage, sending kids to school buying food etc).   I exhibit these in galleries and enjoy the luxury of spending the extra time on them - they even sell occassionaly. 
    Sorry if you were offended by the use of the term playing around with photoshop. Obviously your work is very nice. Unfortunatly I cannnot show you the work I do at work because of patient confidentiallity and, quite frankly, the images are mostly gross anatomy, wounds, lots of blood - not the sort of thing I like to share unless you are a health professional. 
    Anyway, since you have posted, can you help me with the problem is the question I beg to ask.

  • How can you open a PDF file in Preview or save it as Preview?

    .

    Drag and drop it onto Preview's icon, or select the file, *Get Info* on it, and in the *Open With...* menu in the Get Info window, select Preview.
    A PDF file that won't open in Preview is an Acrobat-only file, and there's nothing you can do about that.

  • How can I open a cc2014 file in my cs6 version of Indesign ?

    How can I open a cc2014 file in my cs6 version of Indesign ?
    I have several files that has been saved in a cc2014 version and I can't open them in my CS6 version of Indesign.
    I don t have access to anyone who have the cc 2014 version to convert the file.
    How can I do it from my cs6 version?
    THANKS!

    You can't do it from CS6.
    You have to export to IDML from InDesign CC2014 (or whatever the version it was created in) and then open the IDML in the earlier versoin of InDesign.
    All explained in the FAQ on the main forum page.

  • I can't open a pdf file since updating to firefox 4.0. I have foxit reader installed and it worked before. Adobe is not compatible with Firefox. What do I need to do. I need to file my income tax online and can't because of this issue

    Just can't open any pdf files. Having no luck trying to fix myself.

    For Firefox users, there might be a built in pdf viewer, or a preferred viewer that handles pdf files.
    I am not having any trouble logging in, so lets try this:
    * Remove any cookies from the cache: [[Delete cookies to remove the information websites have stored on your computer]]
    *[[Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings]] if there is stored user data that is removed in this process: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]

  • Why i can't open my raw file in adobe photoshop cs6... and i use camera Canon 650D

    why i can't open my raw file?

    You probably need to update your Camera Raw plug-in for CS6 to something new enough to understand the 650D raw files.
    The usual way you’d do this would be Help / Updates in PS.

  • I can only open 1 .Ai file at a time from explorer

    Okay.  Googling is getting me nowhere and posting this is a last resort.
    computer is running:
    Windows 7 x64 SP1
    Creative Suite 5.5
    Illustrator 5.1
    The problem is:
    From within Windows Explorer, I can only open 1 Illustrator file at a time.  To get a different file to open, I either have to drag and drop the second file into the tabs under the menubar, or I need to quit Illustrator and re-open it.  Also,  I can not open additional files from Explorer one-at-a-time if one is already open.
    Quirks:
    If I go to File -> Open I can select multiple files from within the Open File dialogue window and they open just fine.  but i can't do it from within windows explorer.  This used to work and now it doesn't and I have no idea why.  Can anyone help me out?
    Seriously? 137 views and no replies?  No one has run into this before?

    This is a long shot but try going to Preferences/Type and uncheck "Show Font Names in English".
    Quit illustrator and restart, does it work now?
    The reason I´m suggesting this is that unless I have this box unchecked, some internal function in illustrator crashes after I´ve opened one document and I have to quit & restart if I wan´t to open another one. A rather silly bug and I stumpled upon the solution by accident after cursing illustrator for a couple of months...

  • I can no longer open PSD Photoshop files on Preview

    I can no longer open PSD Photoshop files on Preview since I installed Snow Leopard on my White MacBook. Whenever I double click a PSD file, it opens in Photoshop.
    I used to force PSD files to be opened with Preview by "Get Info" (command + I ) and then Changing the option "open with" to Preview.
    I also tried draggin the PSD file onto Preview, nothing happened.
    Did Snow Leopard stop PSD support, or I'm missing something??

    No, I can still open psd files in Preview, no problem, from both Preview's "Open" dialog and by drag 'n drop onto its icon. It opens simple psd files without error, files with an alpha channel may or may not open correctly, layers will display the topmost layer, if that layer has a mask it displays incorrectly. In short, nothing seems to have changed.

  • I have a new IMAC with a Maverick platform (I can update to Yosemite). I did all graphics on a G5 Power PC (very old), in Freehand (very old)... How can I open old Freehand files on this new Mac? Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

    Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
    Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
    After this, do an update from the App Store.
    Thats all there is to it.
    For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
    Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
    There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

  • I can't open a pdf file.

    My computer was working fine until about 2-3 weeks ago. Suddenly I could no longer open a PDF file. I had Adobe Reader installed and all was good. I asked our IT guy and he suggested downloading Adobe Reader again. I did this and still get the error message. Then I had a friend to tell me to uninstall and reinstall. That did not work either. The error message looks like this:
    Fill conversion - document name.pdf
    Select the encoding that makes your document readable.
    Text coding (then 3 options)
    Windows (default)             MS-DOS           Other encoding
    Then there is a pop-up window within the error message with all kinds of options.
    Help!
    Thank you!
