Is there an application that can open idd files besides InDesign?

I create customized training documents, and they have gotten too large to be supported in MS Word. So, I'm looking at moving over to InDesign, but not everyone on my team will need all the power of InDesign. For example, my editors only need to modify the copy as needed. For such minor work, I do not want to purchase 10 copies of InDesign. Is there an inexpensive application out there that can open idd files for minor editing? If not, has anyone used Photoshop to create a graphically rich 200 page document, and used Elements for text editing?

No comment on Photoshop/Elements aside from that being like using a screwdriver to hammer a bolt into a lemon. Possible, but probably messy and likely to leave a sour taste...
Now, on to the InDesign portion of the question.
You do not need for your editors to have InDesign.
Option 1) Use MS Word (or any other text editor) to edit the copy of all the stories. Pro: common app that you already have. Con: unable to see results in final file.
Option 2) Use Adobe InCopy to edit the copy of all the stories. Pro: InCopy can 'open' InDesign files to allow editors to see the effect of their copy changes. Con: new application to purchase and learn.
InCopy is made for what you have in mind, so long as the minor editing is all text.

Is there an application that will open and view MS publisher?

Is there an application that will open and View MS Publisher files?

Afraid not. You can run Windows on your Mac then run Publisher in Windows. You can find out then if Publisher can export in a "standardized" format other applications might import.
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

I upgraded to OSX.8 and cannot load MS Encore. I desperately need some email files from ENCORE. Is there a program that can open my ENCORE email files?

Do you mean Entourage? It appears you have Office 2004 or older. Those are PowerPC apps only and will not run in Lion or later. If you need access to those emails like, "RIGHT NOW!", then I would suggest purchasing Office 2011 for Mac. Outlook is the new Office email client in 2011 and can import your older Entourage data.

Is there a command that can open & close a dialpeer on a specified time

Is there a command that can open & close a dialpeer on a specified time on a router

In Callmanager Express and SRST, you can block certain patterns and therefore certain dial peers based on time of day, day of week, and date. See the following links.

SRST
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps5207/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a0080392682.html
You can accomplish this with Callmanager by using Time of Day Routing. See the following link.

You don't need anything, as such is built directly into the iOS. Your carrier, however, needs to support such.

I have a .mov file that is 59 gigs. Is there a converter that can reduce the file size with minor resolution loss so I can import it into final cut express?

I have a .mov file that is 59 gigs. Is there a converter that can reduce the file size with minor resolution loss so I can import it into final cut express?

Open the file in QuickTime Player. Then do Tools > Show Movie Inspector. What does it say for Format and FPS?
At 59GB, I suspect you have either a 4 hour DV video or a 1+ hour video that was converted to Apple Intermediate Codec. If it's either of those, you can import it directly into FCE provided you select the appropriate Easy Setup first. Your clips have to match the properties of the Easy Setup you are using.
If it's neither DV or AIC then you need to convert it to one of those codecs. (QuickTime/DV or QuickTime/AIC) Many people in this forum rely on MPEG Streamclip (it's free and works great).

Is there a program that can open .desktop icons?

Hi.
I am 15 years old and have downloaded a game thats called Planetside 2 with the program wine and winebottler. It installed perfectly and leaved a icon thats named Planetside2.PSG.desktop. I didn't exit the window until the planetside 2 have uploaded everything. After one day I decided to play Planetside 2 but I couldn't open that icon. Not even my winebottler couldn't open it. Is there a way or a program that can open that. (I do not want any suggestions buy virtual machines because I don't have a disk reader that can run cd´s).
The way I did it.
1. Installed Planetside 2
2. Created a desktop icon for shortcut. (There also came a sort of document Planetside2.PSG.ink)
3. Waited Planetside 2 to upload ( I went about 3 hours so I went to bed).
4. Next morning, tried to use the shortcut (Planetside2.PSG.desktop) to launch it.
5. Searching if there was anything more installed in the computer and I couldn't find anything except that desktop icon.
Well there is one opertuntity that works but it takes a LONG time because I have to install it again and click the repear option to even open Planetside 2.
My computer is a Macbook air with operating system OS X 10.8.4. (its not mountain lion but it was no more option).

Thanks, I should talk to the support and now I know where my game is! I had the problem to find Planetside was one of the problems and it was in a windows c:drive that is almost impossible to find (Spotlight and Finder searches doesn't work). But I found a program that can find EVERY single program which is OmniDiskSweeper. It calculates every folders and programs size and lays a display on how much spaces it takes on your computer. If anyone have problem to find the windows C:drive I can guide you like this:
Machintosh HD>Users>Your computer name (Which would take a lot of gbytes)>Library(Its probably here the folder Library doesn't show up)>Application Support>com.yourcompany.yourapp.??>there is your windows c:drive!
Maybe in some computers it doesn't work but it worked for me how I found my C:drive. I was using a program called wine so that maybe explains the dissapering. Wine laid it on the C:drive.

Is there an application that can batch convert wma to m4a and save the output files to their respective original file location?

I need to convert thousands (yes, really) of wma files to m4a. The wma files are all located in different folders and each converted m4a file needs to end up in the same folder as its respective original wma file. Does anyone know of an application that can do this?
Thanks,
Will

I'm not completely sure that MPEG Streamclip can convert AVCHD footage (.mts files). If MPEG Streamclip doesn't do the job, then get a copy of Clipwrap, which was designed for transcoding .mts files to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec (that's the format/codec you need to convert the .mts files to for use in FCE).

Spreadsheet app that can open ods files?

Is there an iOS app, preferably both iPhone / iPod Touch and iPad that can read .ods files? I know Numbers can't and I would rather avoid having to translate the files.

the cloudon app should work for that. Also, if you store the files in Microsoft skydrive & use the skydrive app on ipad/iphone, you can open them in the MS office web apps. Those should also (I think) read .ods files.

When I try to install an older version of Adobe flashplayer I get a message that says there is no application that can open it

I have a MacBook Pro and using Mountain Lion. Adobe automatically updated flashplayer and that wouldn't allow me to use my camera with skype. I uninstalled flashplayer but cannot install an older version, when I try I get, "Safari can't open the "playerglobal11_4.swc" because no available application can open it."

First repair permissions and restart your computer. Reinstall the latest version of flash player. Again repair permissions and restart your computer.

Is there a program that can view .indd files?

Besides inDesign or inCopy, I mean. I'm aware that there are programs that will extract the preview thumbnails from the file, but are there any that will view the .indd file itself? My manager doesn't want to spend the money on a copy of inCopy for all of our users, but wants to give people the option to view .indd files currently in progress.

Greetings! Matheau from Code Line here.
Our product, Art View for Mac (formerly SneakPeek Pro), allows you to preview InDesign, as well as Illustrator, ASE, Freehand MX and others from Quick Look. It doesn't require you to have InDesign installed. For InDesign docs, it uses the built-in thumbnails which can be quite good if configured properly before saving. We talk a bit about getting better previews with InDesign on our blog.
Here's a link if you'd like to see how it works:
Thanks!
Matheau
P.S. We also have SneakPeek for iOS offers previews for InDesign and Illustrator as well.

Is there an application that will allow adding files to a "Burned Disk"?

In the Finder, if I burn several folders to a disk, I can not add any additional files later, even though I've used less than 10% of the disk's capacity. Is there any way around this? Some other disk burning application?
Patrick

Take a look at: disco
(free App)
CD sessions, turned off by default, allow you to add more files to a disc that has been used before. Instead of erasing the data that is already on the disc (as is done with CD and DVD rewritable discs), it appends the new data to the existing data.
Using Sessions
Session CDs allow you to burn additional data to an already burned CD. After inserting a session disc in your mac, depending on whether or not you have set it to automatically add sessions to appendable discs, you will be able to burn additional data to the disc.
