Is there a list of file extensions?

I'm just curious what *.epub and *.dmg and others are that I don't know having come from the W word community.

There are numerous web sites that list reems of file extensions and their associations - just google for "file extensions"
epub is an electronic publication, basically an ebook format. It is the most common format for ebooks from Barnes and Nobel, Kobo and other ebook retailers (Amazon being the big exception, since they have their own proprietary ebook format). Note though that epub books can be DRM (i.e. digitally locked) encoded - for example, Apple's iBook epub files are DRM locked to Apple's own iBook reader. B&N and Kobo ebooks are also DRM locked, but you can use Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) app to authorize them on non-B&N or non-Kobo readers.
dmg is a disc image file - typically used to bundle and compress applications for electronic distribution. You download dmg files for apps from the App store, for example, double click to open them, run the installer or drag'n'drop the application into your Applications folder, then close and delete the dmg file (or archive it if you want to keep a backup).

RoboHelp 9 file extensions

I have done some searching in the forums and in the Online Help and cannot find the list of file extensions and what they mean in RoboHelp. Can anyone tell me where (or if) this list exists?
I'll bet you are wondering why I need them, right?
Okay, well my company is currently converting all of our applicatoins from VB6 to DotNet. We have a huge application that is being converted in pieces over the following year. Using our Subversion repository, I have created a complete copy of the project in which to work. At the same time, we are changing the online help from .chm to WebHelp. My problem is that as the conversion takes place, they are also making changes to the original VB6 project which will need updates in in online help. So, I need to make the changes to the VB6 project in the DotNet project and merget only those topics (using Subversion) to the original VB6 online help project. I need to know which files to bring along with the updated or newly created topic. Make sense?
Thanks in advance for any help you provide!

AS droplet - check file extension

Hi,
how can i check if the file extension of the dragged file is part of a defined list of file-extensions ?
i want to check the input-file before trying to run my droplet-code to it.....
guess that makes sense hehe
i am trying it like that at the moment:
*if extension of names is ".png" then*
*-- do something*
*end if*
but extension is for sure the wrong idea, as As does not understand it.
this idea:
*set fileExtension to the name extension of names*
end with an error:
Can’t get «class nmxt» of {alias "MyHD:Users:me:Desktop:Picture 1.png"}. (-1728)
any ideas ?
best regards
fidel

Sample code:
--- Code starts here ---
property goodFileTypes : {"jpg"}
on run {}
display dialog "Drag file(s) onto applet for processing." buttons {"OK"} default button "OK" giving up after 5
end run
on open (dItems)
tell application "Finder"
repeat with i in dItems
try
if (goodFileTypes contains (name extension of i)) then
say "jpeg" -- Optional, For demonstration purposes only.
-- Your code here.
end if
end try
end repeat
end tell
end open
--- Code ends here ---

A list of files changed for Update Rollup 4 for Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 3

Hi.
Is there a list of files changed for Rollup 4?
After our RollUp installation, some files in the BIN directory still has the date of 2/5/2013 (SP3, no RollUp4), some has the date of 6/13/2013 (RollUp4)
Despite RollUp4 looks like to have been installed, Exchange Server still reports it's running "Version 14.3 (Build 123.4)"
Thanks...

Hi,
After you install an update rollup for Exchange 2010, the version of Exchange Server isn't updated to show that the update rollup is installed. This issue occurs because the version number that is displayed by the Exchange Management Console or by other
administrative mechanisms is obtained from the Exchange Server Object in Active Directory.
If you want to get the latest version of Exchange server, the article Andy provided is a good way.
Best regards,

Why isn't .jfif not listed in the JPEG file extensions (.jpg, .jpeg, .jpe) Photoshop Elements 12

Problem: Corrupt JEPG files.
Software: Adobe Photoshop Elements 12
Story: On my website I have the option to sell files as instant downloads. I upload JEPG 300dpi images of my artwork for people to purchase is a download. I have done this on Etsy for several years without a problem.
The problem began when I setup a website using Weebly, an online build your own website company. I upload the same files I have used in the past, but when I do a test purchase and download my file it is corrupt. I get an error message in Photoshop Elements that the file is corrupt or missing information. If I let Photoshop open the file, the file it is only half there or lines through the image.
I have been working with a Weebly tech to solve the problem. I sent him the file I wanted to upload. He opened the file on his computer and saved it. Then uploaded to my site, I downloaded it and the file was fine a perfectly clear 300 pdi JPEG file. We were confused. After a few more tests he mentioned he did not have Photoshop and was using Microsoft Paint (light bulb) to open and save the files. His files worked, mine did not.
So I tried opening my files in Paint and saving them in that JEPG format and they work. The only difference i can see between Paints JEPG save option and Photoshops Save Function is that Paint includes the .jfif extension.
Question: Should this make a difference? if so can I add the file extention to Photoshop's list of file types that I can save?
Thanks
Mark

Thank you I will check it out. I am not sure what information is attached to picture files, but the same file saved in Microsoft Paint works in my situation and the Photoshop file will not. The only difference is Paint supports.jfif and photoshop does not. I might want to go the other way jpg to jififs. or save with to jepg with software that supports jfifs.

Photoshop complete list of dependant file extension

Is there a Photo directory for all the dependant file extensions assoicated with preset, curves, actions, save for the web, work spaces, type and paragraph styles etc, etc.

Hi Kirby,
It would be very useful, yes, but I do not know of any official document.
But from experimenting I found, that the preferences file contains
all settings you set from the Preferences panel (surprise, surprise)
the "recent directory" lists
the path to your Aperture library
the layout of the GUI
I always keep the original preferences file for reference, when I need to delete it. You can read the preferences file with Xcode, a free download from the AppStore and check the older settings.
Regards
Léonie
P.S. It is far easier to say what is not in the "Preferences" file: All settings that you find in "Your User Library > Application Support > Aperture", but you probably know all that

Is there a shortcut for adding file extensions?

I have an archive of over 15,000 images, all TIFF, JPEG and Photoshop images. None of them have file extensions. They were saved back when Mac did not use extensions. Now they will not open if I just double click on them... I must add the correct extension, then it opens fine.
It will take me FOREVER to click on each one, type in the extension, then click "Add".
Is there a script or shortcut to name all these old files? Or shareware?
Or at the very LEAST is there a way to turn off that annoying dialog box to confirm that I want to add the extension?
Thanks, any feedback will be appreciated.

I have a whole lot of very old graphic files, and thought I would try Kappy's recommendation of Renamer4Mac, combined with a Spotlight search to see how speedily one could add extensions. So did a Spotlight search on a backup folder that contains many and varied sub-folders containing many and various images. To get the old pict files I hit command-F from the top level folder, selected that folder (WHY does search have "This Mac" as the default???), and for Kind I selected Other and typed:
Adobe Photoshop PICT file
in the blank field. It returned a list of 961 old pict files. Launched Renamer and told it to insert the text pct, at position 1 from left, suffix only. Then dragged a batch of the files from the search results window into the top pane of the Renamer window, clicked the Rename Files button, et voila'! The files were renamed (and no confirm dialog box).
To figure out what to put in the Kind:Other field, just do a search on Kind:Images and note the different types. Thus, something that needed the psd extension would be Adobe Photoshop file, to find tifs, it would be TIFF image. You might have some "QuickDraw picture" as an image kind, they are pict files. Plain jpegs can be brought up with Kind: JPEG image, extension jpg. And so on.

Hello JF.
I don't think that extension is supported. I believe Firefox can only read .json and .html.

I think I lost all of my music when I tried to back-up to an external hard drive. I purchased a new PC and when I tried to transfer from the external hard drive to the new PC, the folders where there, but the music files were "empty". I have an itunes library file that lists all the music that I cannot find, but it is a read-me file and will not repopulate the music into itunes. I seriously lost like 70 gigs af music. Does anyone know if there is a way to salvage these files?

Is there a way to hide ALL file extensions?

Hi
I am looking for a way to get OS X to hide ALL file extensions on the entire computer. I don't know why, but they really annoy me! I liked OS 9 and earlier because they didn't have them, and including them in OS X seems like a step backward to me. Wherever I can I simply don't save with file extensions (MS Office still retains this ability), and most applications will still open their files if you delete the file extension, but I do have a number of applications that require a file extension (such as OmniGraffle Pro), and it is very laborious to have to go through every file in order to hide the file extension. Is there some kind of master setting that you can apply to a volume in order to hide every file extension in it?

Hi All,
I have found this tutorial that partially solves the problem. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NhRFxJCAQw
It is a quick way to hide the extensions of all files that have them in a given folder and the folders inside it, using automator. It does not hide the extensions of any file you add to the folder subsequently, and you can not apply it to a volume or a home folder. It is more of a labour-saving tool than an actual solution, but it is vastly better than having to get info for every single file.
As the author of the tutorial notes in his video, this is an option that apple could fix by just adding one more check-box to the finder preferences window. Or better still they could have just left things the way they were before and not introduced them in the first place... does anyone even know what they are for anyway? (Apart from to annoy you with a random bit of text at the end of a filename that you didn't place there.)

I received an email containing a spreadsheet created using Mac Office 2004 on my new MacBook Air equipped with Mac Office 2011. When I saved the document, my Finder lists the document without the .xls file extension. Why?

I received an email containing a spreadsheet created using Mac Office 2004 on my new MacBook Air equipped with Mac Office 2011. When I saved the document, my Finder lists the document without the .xls file extension. Why?
All other .xls documents created by Mac Office 2004 retained the .xls file extention when I migrated them over to the new MacBook Air.

I know what happened. When I saved the document I somehow hit the Hide File Extension box. Sorry to trouble this group. I simply resaved it w/o activating the Hide File Extension feature.

Is there a way to persuade my machine to make 3 letter file extensions?

Hi,
I have been having a frustrating time trying to share images exported from iPhoto, created with Grab, etc, as they all seem to make 4 letter file extensions (.jpeg, .tiff) which the illustrious Windows cannot read, and I am tired of changing them manually.
Is there a way to change either Finder settings or individual Apple software settings to ONLY export the more universal 3 letter file extensions?
Thank you for your help,
T.

Yes, of course. This is where I have noticed the problem. Emailing directly from iPhoto the images are tagged .jpeg, however if they are saved to a folder, then 'attached' ticking the box for 'Windows friendly attachments' in Mail, then it works. but I have not found a direct way to do it.

There used to be a extension for Safari called "close all tabs". It is no longer on the extension list. Does anybody know why it was removed?

There used to be a extension for Safari called "close all tabs". It is no longer on the extension list. Does anybody know why it was removed?

Mr. Davis answer is essentially what that extension did. I thank Mr. Davis for this answer as I was not aware of this method. I only brought this up becasue in Lion there is a nasty habit of Safari opening all previous tabs that where not closed when shuting down the computer. This can cause a long delay in opening Safari becasue of all the tabs opening up. The "close all tabs" exstension stopped all this opening process. I have to assume that Apple replaced the extension with the process that Mr. Davis describes, however, the extension was a lot faster. By the way, I have this extension still and I still use it. I just wanted to pass it on to some other users, but guess I will have to give up on that idea.

Is there a way to print (or copy/paste) a list of files I have in a folder?

I have 42 pics in a folder, each with it's own file name. Is there any way I can print the list of files in the folder to be able to send just the file names via email?
(I just want to let someone know what I have, not actually send them the phyical file)
Thanks!

Select them all, choose Copy from the Edit menu, paste into a location which only allows plain text, copy that text, and put it into the email.
