I would like to open word docs, excel and ppt? Is there an app for this?

Help. I understand there is an ap I can purchase to be able to work from my computer. I want to be able to open word/excel docs.

Pages has a version for iOS, and there are other apps for iOS, reportedly capable of reading these files. I do not like iPad so am not very good here, my son is better, for sure.

Folder icons keep reappearing whenever I make a new bookmark. closing window and opening new one eliminates them again. is there a fix for this?

I asked this question months ago but have received no replies. I ran the original de-iconizer but as soon as I select "Bookmark this page" all the folder icons reappear. I can close the window and open a new one to get a de-iconized browser window but am looking for a fix for this.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

I would like to open attachments without saving them. Is there a way to do that in Firefox like in IE ?

It is nice to open an attachment without saving it to a specific location. I am used to doing this with Internet Explorer. However,
it does not seem that I can do that with Firefox. Is that true or am I missing something ?

Goto Options > Applications > Click on 'Action' of the file that you want to change the properties of to: Save File/Always Ask or choose a program to open it with.
Click OK to save.

I would like to completely remove the firefox nightly build. I have searched for this info already and havent found anything that could help. I'm fairly new to linux. I'm currently running ubuntu 11.10

I am just trying to remove nightly from my computer. I removed firefox 10 already. I am going to downgrade to firefox 4, but before I do, I want nightly off my computer and it is not listed under synaptic or any other package installer. There is a reason I want the older version of firefox, but I won't get into that right now. Thats a totally different issue. But I am fairly new to linux, so please try to give directions or answers in a way that I will be able to understand if possible. Thank you for your time.

Firefox 10a1 is an older alpha (Aurora/Nightly) version.
Is that a version that you installed yourself from the Mozilla server or is that a version from the Ubuntu repositories?
In the case of the latter you need to use the install and remove software item of your Linux distribution.
If you installed Firefox yourself then you can simply remove the Firefox installation directory.
You can find the latest Firefox release in all languages and for all Operating Systems here:
*Firefox 10.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html

When I Apply Redaction to the selected area the area is redacted, however the rest of the doc becomes unreadable. Is there a fix for this?

FYI - I am using Acrobat X Pro v 10.1.13
If I convert a MS Word Document to a PDF file the Redaction works fine without affecting the rest of the document.
The problem I am describing below only seems to happen on documents that have been scanned to PDF from my Lanier Copier/Printer/Scanner/Fax machine MP C3502. I purchased the Adobe PDF software for the machine so that I could scan from the machine directly to my computers. The scan arrives onto both of my computers, no problem. I can open them and print them with no problems. Both Computers have Acrobat Pro X software on them.
Here is what I do:
1. I receive an Invoice in the mail
2. I scan it at 600dpi from my Lanier machine to my computers
3. I open the scanned PDF doc on my computer
4.I select Save As and give the doc a name
5. I open the Tools and go to Protection
6. I select Mark for Redaction
7. I select the area I want Redacted
8. I Apply Redaction
9. I answer, Yes to the pop up window asking me if I want to Apply the Redaction
10. Another pop up window confirms the Redaction is successful
11. At this point I can see that the Redaction had occurred however the rest of the document appears washed out and I cannot read any other information on the document. Thing such as bar codes or header in color all seem to be fine but all the type is washed out and unreadable. I normally use Black for my redaction color however I have tried using other colors and I get the same effect.
When I first installed the Acrobat Pro X software a few years ago I never had any problems, I recently began updating the Acrobat software a few months ago and now I have this problem,
I would appreciate any help.
Thank you,
BG10

Thank you. I figured it out right before I heard from you. Running the OCR before the redaction made it work correctly.
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question.
Make it a great day.

Brand new MacBook Pro w/Retina Display, PSE11 looks like a mess, bad resolution, pixelated fonts and pictures, is there a fix for this? This is a major, major issue for me as I use PSE all...the...time! Thx.

Just purchased a brand new MBP, and all programs look awesome on it except the one software program where crisp display is required - PSE11. I really need to know my options, is this a fix in the near future? Is PSE12 retina display friendly? Any other options? Thank you.

I am not a Mac user, but your problem is the same with other HDPI high resolution displays.
See that discussion on the feedback forum:
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/please_add_retina_support_to_photosh op_elements_11
Nobody can tell if future versions will solve the problem, but don't expect a fix for PSE12.

I completely disagree about the 'crisp display' requirement. Photo editing on computers has its own requirements which do take into account the practical resolution of the display, its size and viewing distance and the fact that you have to work alternatively on the whole image or the pixel level. Working comfortably without straining your eyesight means a lot of things including display size and viewing distance (good : 24 to 27" at 80 - 100 cm) with optimal resolution : 1920 x 1200; good colour fidelity and absence of reflections.
If you compare side by side HDPi vs more standard displays, you won't see the difference in a normal editing session, only if you look closely for a long time at a still image.
Standard displays are crisp enough, don't be fooled by the marketing trick of the higher figures. Even 1920 x 1200 resolution is more than enough for a 15" display. Spend the price difference on a good and comfortable. external display. Make use of the shortcuts to quickly zoom and pan in your images.

On Pages 09, my word documents I've been saving it to iCloud, to access anywhere, but I would like to keep my docs organized in files on my finder as usual, and saving to iCloud, I lose my local one.How can I fix it and not desorganize my files?

It's either in local folders, as it seem you had been doing, or in icloud. If you go into the mac's Pages and view the icloud files, you can drag on onto another to create a folder. But you can only have folder one level deep, so you can't organize your files/folders like you can on a mac, using nested folder several levels deep.

Can't open word docs in pages 08

recently upgraded to snow leopard then installed iwork 08. can't open any word docs using pages 08 or excel docs using numbers 08 upgraded to x.0.3 versions and repaired disc permissions. Help anyone!

I did discover I can open Word docs with Text Edit, but it's a multi-step process now. I really don't want to upgrade to iWork 09 and I'm not sure that would solve the problem. I also have to use Quick Time now to open movies in iPhoto. Another multi-step process. I'm not very happy with SL.

Strange problem when opening word doc situated in WLS virtual dir

Hi all,
we have a strange problem when opening word doc
situated in C:\Oracle\Middleware\as_1\forms\webutil
we put some word docs there and tried to open from forms using for example web.show_document('http://wp0606:9001/forms/webutil/mug00103.doc', '_blank');
no problem using FF, however in IE8 the word doc is shown in its binary format, this also happens when we try to open the doc in IE8
however when we google and search for instance for a test.doc and then click on this url a file save dialog is shown
that's why we believe that this might be due to a configuration issue of WLS
any help would be greatly appreciated

I think you have 2 ways to go here. Figure out what html is from wherever weblogic gets it, meaning you have to delve into the docs, snoop
around in directories and find what it must be sending (This is going to be unavoidable if you are going to change what weblogic is doing.
Sooner or later you have to try to figure out where it gets this stuff from)
or
you can experimentally snoop on your url with a tool like wget or curl. These are fundamental web tools.
The latter is always a useful thing to be able to do. (you need to formulate a query to get the content-type).
Whoever managed to get weblogic to serve any files in the first place probably can figure this out.

I can no longer open word or excel files from my email in firefox, i can in all other browsers. it started november 5, 2014

Yesterday afternoon, out of the blue, I can no longer open word or excel documents from my gmail account in firefox browser on windows 7. I can in all other browsers. The error message is "There was a problem sending the command to the program"

As a workaround, does it work to save the files first and then open them after saving?
Sometimes when Firefox has problems handing off a download to another program it is caused by a corrupted settings file. That file is hard to edit, so usually we suggest renaming the file to see whether that resolves the issue. Here's how:
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window listing various files and folders.
Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
* (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''mimeTypes.rdf''' to something like mimeTypes.old
Start Firefox back up again and test your Gmail attachments. Any improvement?
Note: This resets some preferences to their defaults, such as which PDF viewer Firefox uses. If you need to update that again, please see this article: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].

How can I open Word docs with Pages?

I just installed the iWorks software because it said it would open Word docs. Now I can't seem to open any Word .doc files I had archived onto CDs, after abandoning my PC.
I've made Pages my default application for opening text, and that didn't help. I just keep getting the error message "The document "X.doc" couldn't be opened." Any ideas?

Welcome to Apple Discussions Paul
Pages - the word processing/page layout application in iWork (no "s") - usually doesn't have any problems with opening Word files, but I do believe it can't open any Word files older than version 6. It is also highly unlikely that it would be able to open any from the new 2007 version. If your documents are from a version in between those, they should open.
How are you trying to open them? There are at least three common methods, but, since you say the documents are on a CD, I suggest copying them from the CD to your hard drive first. To open one at a time you can use File > Open (where > means following menu commands with your cursor). To open more than one at a time, select the ones you want by Command- (⌘) clicking the files & then dragging them onto the Pages icon in the Dock or a Finder window or Control- or right-click & choose Pages from Open with in the contextual menu that appears.

Can't open Word docs with Pages 08

Since upgrading to SL I found that I can no longer open Word documents sent to me via email attachments. Can this be remedied? I thought Macs were able to "translate" Word files.
Help!
