I open by default .gif files with the Mail application.

But every time I try to open one, it asks me to confirm because it says it was downloaded from the internet.
How can I remove that check?
Thanks,
Roberto

It is a built-in security feature in Mac OSX. Removing it may not be a good idea.
But there is a terminal command to do that, incase you want to reverse, note down the command.
Look for  "Permanantly disable the warning system" in this article.
I have never tried this and not recommending.

  • Using hotmail with the mail application

    I would really like to use the mail program with my hotmail account, I tried an application that someone suggested but it did not work. Does anyone know of any programs that will allow me to use my hotmail in the mail application?

    You're showing as running a Windows machine.
    I would suggest using Google Mail. You can either set up GM to forward your messages, or configure Mail's POP3 account settings and have them brought in when you do a 'get mail'.

  • Can you open an existing illustrator file with the application default settings?

    I need to open a customers illustrator files that he sends me with the default application settings, not the setting he saved with his file.

    CS6 (Mac) but soon CC.
    What is happening is they are saving the files with among other things, print scaling set to something other than 100%. If one of our operators does not catch it, the plate files are ripped at a smaller size than what they should be.
    This customer does thier own production work and sends us "plate ready" files but sometimes forgets to change this setting back to 100% (he changes the scaling to something that will fit on a letter size page so he can check his separations).
    I seem to recall (from years ago), there was a way to open a file using the applications default settings, not the settings saved within the file itself.

  • Dreamweaver CC 2014 still wants to open jpg, png, gif files with uninstalled Photoshop CC rather than installed Photoshop CC 2014

    Anyone know a fix. It seems that it wants to look for photoshop.exe and still wants to look for the uninstalled Photoshop CC folder.
    1. Yes, I have set the Preferences in Dreamweaver to point to Photoshop CC 2014 as the Primary.
    2. I'm on Windows 7.
    I also had to do this fix to get PSD, IND, AI and EPS files to open in their respective programs: Photoshop: CS6 not default program for jpg and/or jpeg in Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
    Ugh, Adobe and their updates.

  • Quicktime Pro won't open an MPEG movie file with the Quicktime icon

    What am I missing? Not getting? I have several MPEG movie files that proudly sport the Quicktime icon, but the Quicktime app tells me they're not movie files.
    If Quicktime won't open them, is there conversion software I can use?
    So much for productivity.

    Didn't even consider it. I thought that because the file displayed the Quicktime icon and because I have Quicktime Pro, that Quicktime would play the file.
    Unfortunately, this is a common misconception. However, now that you understand the problem, you can work on a solution. Basically, if by MPEG your are referring to common MPEG-2/MP2 content 'multiplexed" to an MPEG container, these can be played in the QT Player (or Front Row or iTunes) if you install the QT MPEG-2 Playback component ($19.99). However, be advised that this is a video only component, so it does not make "muxed" AC3 MPEG-2 files playback compatible with the QT player. Luckily, if you do decide to install this component, the free MPEG Streamclip application will allow you to play or convert such files to any QT compatible audio and video format for which you system is configured. Or, if all you want to do is play MPEG-2 video files without investing in the QT component, then you can view them with VLC but may have trouble converting them to a QT compatible format. HandBrake will also convert them without investing in the MPEG-2 component, but greatly limits your conversion possibilities. I personally would recommend buying the component as Neil recommended since it offers the greatest flexibility for playing without conversion, as well as, the most conversion options for all normal MPEP-2 Program and Transport Stream files you are likely to encounter using QT 7 Pro and/or MPEG Streamclip depending on the specific source content what you want to do with the final files.

    That was not the focus of the update. Unless a developer develops such an App, there's nothing else to talk about.

  • Is it possible to merge a .fdf file with the IOS application for Adobe Reader?

    I receive .fdf files via email that merge with a pdf template on my PC. I would like to do this on my Ipad but can't see any way that this would be possible. Does anyone know how this can be done? If not are Adobe looking at making this function possible in the future?

    wildcat24,
    Currently, Adobe Reader mobile products do not support import of FDF files.
    Sorry, I am not able to speculate on features in future releases.

    Just to confuse the issue even more...

    And when I select the Stop option I get..."You have stopped receiving email notifications for this discussion. To subscribe to new messages via email, click "Receive email notifications" below."
    Did Apple change it, or add the messages?

  • Opening a file with an associated application

    Ok, I have a project where I have to open a file or files
    with the associated application on a local system. I have tried the
    "open" command in lingo, the "ApplicationXtra.x32" xtra, "BuddyAPI"
    xtra and the "FileXtra4" xtra. Each will open the application but
    none will open the file path and name sent in the argument;
    assuming any of the folders in the path or the filename itself has
    spaces in it.
    Here is an example of the code used for the lingo "open"
    command:
    open "E:\Working\PlotViews for Cleveland.dwg" with
    "E:\Program Files\ACAD2000\acad.exe"
    Here is an example of the code used for the
    "ApplicationXtra.x32":
    RunApp = new(xtra "ApplicationXtra")
    RunApp.RunApp("E:\Program
    Files\ACAD2000\acad.exe","E:\Working\PlotViewsforCleveland.dwg")
    Here is an example of the code used for the "BuddyAPI":
    ok = baShell( "open", "E:\Program Files\ACAD2000\acad.exe",
    "E:\Working\PlotViews for Cleveland.dwg" , "E:\Working\", "normal"
    And here is an example of the code used for the "FileXtra4":
    FX = new xtra("FileXtra4")
    FX.fx_FileRunApp("E:\Program Files\ACAD2000\acad.exe
    E:\Working\PlotViews for Cleveland.dwg")
    All of these crap out when there is a space anywhere in the
    path or filename. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks for the help.

    Well, to anyone who cares....I used the ShortFileName
    function from BuddyAPI and BAM it works!

  • On iPad can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages app?

    On iPad, can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages application?  If so how do I perform this activity?

    Yes you can open Word files. If it is an email attachment you can simply tap and hold down on the icon and select "open in" and then select Pages - as long as you have the Pages app on the iPad.
    Where is the file on your iPad or how do you want to move it to the iPad?

  • I want to open a domain.site2 file outside the default folder (User/Library/Application Support/iWeb) with iWeb11, but iWeb only opens the domain file in the default folder. If I delete the default domain file, iWeb wants to create a new site. Help please

    I want to open a domain.site2 file outside the default folder (User/Library/Application Support/iWeb) with iWeb11, but iWeb only opens the domain file in the default folder. If I delete the default domain file, iWeb wants to create a new site. Does anyone have the same problem or know how to fix it?

    In Lion the Finder folder is now invisible.  To make it permanetely visible enter the following in the Terminal applicaiton window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    For opening your domain file in Lion for the first time or to switch between multiple domain files  Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an applicaiton.
    Just launch the applicaiton, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate

  • How do I change the default folder that opens when uploading a file to the internet from my mac? (at the moment it automatically defaults to 'Downloads' folder)

    How do I change the default folder that opens when uploading a file to the internet from my mac? (at the moment it automatically defaults to 'Downloads' folder)
    For example...
    I am on a webiste and wish to upload a photo.
    I click on select file on the website
    Finder opens and defaults to 'Downloads' folder (it happens with all wesbites)
    How do I change this?

    I click on select file on the website
    You are attempting to download the picture to your computer not uploading photo to the website if I am understanding you correctly.
    To change the download direction, you must do so through your browser's Preferences.  If you are using Safari, hopefully, someone who uses Safari will help you and/or post over in their forums.  I do not use Safari.
