Does anyone know how to resolve this problem,
Ian

As far as I know, Pages was never able to open PDF files.
By default, this task is dedicated to Preview.
M…oSoft created so many file formats that I'm not really surprised by what yo describe with Word documents.
Would be a good idea to download and install the free LibreOffice from :

File format invalid when opening a word document

Hi there,
I have been sent a batch of Word and PDF documents, which when I try and open on my Macbook they all come up with the message 'The file format is invalid'.
I have previously been sent word and PDF files, and had no problem opening them. I have used the Help resource, and followed the instructions about dragging the file to the Pages icon etc, but the same error message comes up.
What could be wrong? I think that the version of Word is 2007.

Application Express 3.1 + BI-Publisher + problem with formating numbers

Hello together!
I use the Oracle BI Publisher Template Builder for Word (10.1.3.4) to generate RTF-Templates. I upload these templates in Oracle Apex (Advanced support-->BI-Publisher/OC4J as print service).
It works well, but I have a problem with formating numbers.
In Template Builder I define following number formats, for example: #.##0 for numbers like 1.454.234 and #.##0,00 for numbers like 54,80
In Template-Builder Preview it looks well.
But whatever I do, in use with Oracle Apex dots and comma are allready interchances in the printout.
That means,
1.454.234 become 1,454,234 in PDF-Report
54,80 become 54.80 in PDF-Report
Other than that, the layout is exactly the same like in Template Builder defined.
What's wrong?
Do I have to change any country parameter?
Juliane

I also had the same problem. I tried with normal formating of 99g99g999d99 instead of ##,##,##0.00 and it has resulted correct way.

Windows Media Player file format invalid

I'm running Mac OS 10.3.9 and the latest Windows Media Player 9.0.0. Sometimes when I try to open Windows Media Player files (.asx) people send me I get "Cannot play back the file. The file format is invalid." How can I get these files to play?
Or is there another Mac application that will play these file (.asx) file formats?
Thanks.

Welcome to the discussions Terry!
Videolan's VLC will play almost anything.Also, it's freeware.

IWeb FTP publish problem

I am trying to use the functionality of the internal FTP to upload my site, but when I enter all the information that has been given to me from my web host, it keeps telling me that there is a problem with my root/destination. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Eric

since day 1 I have not been able to publish via built-in FTP to 2 servers --> always error messages coming up, yet the test file gets deposited there.
No issues with Cyberduck! Configuration is the same. Go figure!

IWeb weird publish problem

So I've been using iWeb for about 2 weeks now. I installed in in my G3 iBook (via Pacifist, I know, I know, but I bought it without reading that I needed a G4 or higher.. sigh my poor ol' iBook).. any way - iPhoto and iWeb work Awesome. I photo is much faster and everything seems to work fine.
iWeb is a little slugish but hey, it works.
So when I uploaded my page went all wackey - check it out at
http://web.mac.com/robertt/iWeb/robertt_iPhoto/Home.html
Run your pointer over the links at the top.
I think I just need to re-upload (which will take almost a 30minutes to and hour) but it's kinda crazy.

Robert,
Looks fine to me. Are you sure you aren't just running into a caching problem? Try clearing your cache and reloading the page.

Podcast Publisher supported files problem

I recently used podcast publisher and podcast capture to make a podcast. When I try to import an MP3 to podcast publisher, the file format is not supported. Why is that?

I think Apple has re-done the Podcast suite as of late. It's now called Podcast Publisher. I also have Pocast Capture that allows me to capture on remote machines and submit the content – doing this however seems to work fine for submitting it, but the content never shows up on the nominated podcast in PodcastPublisher...

Problem with video support file format VOB (Video Object)

I have created a project with VOB files which premiere pro cs4 supported orginally but after an update from adobe it now suddenly it will not recognize them, marking them in the timeline as 'Media offline'. I have tryed to relink them but I kept running into the same problem - 'File format not supported'. I have checked Premiere pro cs4 help and it states that it does support VOB files which it did orginally. I can not tell if it is a codecs problem or not. Help anyone???

Suddenly non supported file format

My HDD where the project files reside crashed and after a few day's work I manage to get everything back.
Premiere Pro CS6 Crash. First "this project contained a sequence that could not be opened" And now "The file has an unsupported compression type". First issue solved but not the file system one. This is on a project I've been working on for a few months. Other software like VLC can use the files so the files seems to be ok. The problem file format is m2ts untouched from cam. And it have been working for a long time before this crash. Dedicated this weekend for the final editing of this project and now.... Sitting here with a beer and cant do nothing.....
Anyone having a few good cards up their sleeves?

First. It is not the lack of payment issue I complain about. It is the fact that when payment is not made I get "punished" by having to reinstall the whole cloud. Why isnt the restrictions alone enough? Since it goes back to trail why isnt that enough? If I cant have money on my card when it's time for the monthly payment, I should face limitations for that. That I do. But lets put this in a example. I'm away on a film job out in the field. It gets extended by a week and when I get back home the schedule for editing is down a week due to the extra filming. And since it was hectic out in the field I forgot/no time to make sure there was enough with money on the card for the subscribtion. So when I get home and have set aside time for editing around the clock I have to start with the payment issue. That is taken care of in a few seconds. But then the annoying part is starting. Uninstalling everything, downloading, installing, updating, installing plugins, updating. 100 reboots.... That is extremely annoying. A lot of inspiration for the editing project and a lot of time is lost. And for what reason?
Second. Who is going to pay the extra credit card I have to have if following your suggestion? Adobe? Probably not. You? Probably not. Meaning that the fee for the cloud went up a little for me. I understand the benefits for that function but in my case it would only be good for the cloud subscription. And that alone is not a good solution for this issue.
Third. Well I still think this is a bug, unless Adobe have this function implemented to punish people who doesnt pay on time. Then naturally it is not a bug. Maybe Adobe can answer if this is a function that they like or if this is a bug?
Fourth. If I should get punished why not having a re activation fee instead? I would gladly pay a few bucks to get the software funcioning directly after I pay my subscribtion. That would benefit both me and Adobe. Why sabotage my work? Who is gaining from that?
Fifth. I have no proof for this. But I also do not want to try it again next month. The time to un-install and re-install is to expencive right now. If I'm wrong I will crawl to the altar and say I'm sorry. But It would also be nice if Adobe did the same if they are wrong.

Will AppleWorks file formats now be open to 3rd parties?

It would be nice if Apple published the file formats for AppleWorks so that 3rd parties could build importers, etc.

After working with Apple SCM years ago, I doubt they even know where the source code is for AppleWorks.
I had to send the Emailer source code to them 4 times...

IWeb 08 error message "The file format is invalid"

I have been reading all of the problems regarding publishing iweb pages at the moment, I too cannot publish my site but I get a different error message
"The file format is invalid"
Can anyone help as to why I might be getting this message?
My iDisk seems to have a very old version of my website stored and I don't know where to look to find the current versions files?
Why hasn't iDisk got the most up to date version of my iWeb site and how do I get it to have?
Which folder on the iDisk should your iWeb files be stored in?
Sorry to ask so many questions but I am new to the publishing part after spending weeks building a site only to find it I get an error and my iDisk file structure holds old files.

When I opened iWeb I could see the most up-to-date version of my site, I could edit it and save it (to where I don't know). When I opened the web and sites folder on my iDisk it contained only the files from a previous version of my website created months ago.
I tried looking for the Domain file for my iWeb site and looked in my home folder, application support and then iWeb but the iWeb file in App support was empty.
I believe the iWeb file in App support is where the Domain file should be located, correct?
I have used Time machine to go back a week and have located the domain file and have restored it. The domain file now sits in the iWeb folder in App support in my Home, where it should be.
Now when I load iWeb I see the version of my website that was created a week ago which is fine but iDisk still has the old file structure of my site from months ago.
Can I delete the old file structure completely from the Sites folder on my iDisk? this should remove the old version of my website shouldn't it?
How do I get the restored version of my website to appear in iDisk?
Do I simply copy the Domain file into the sites folder on iDisk?
My iWeb files on Mobile me are also the months old versions, how do I update these so my new site is all that I can see?
Any answers to my 'File format' problem when trying to upload, is it because I don't have my iWeb files in the correct places?

Invalid docx file format error when publishing

Good morning all,
I've been using UPK 3.5.1 Developer for years with Office 2003 (yes, I know we should upgrade, but that's out of my control), and have successfully published many times. After my latest publishing, the following error showed in the Activity Log:
Task: Job Aid / Postprocessing document
Comment: Invalid docx file format odpub://int/PlayerPackage/Temp/03d444ee-681b-406b-aba2-cd4b669702e2_JOBAID.docx
All of the other job aids have published to a .doc format, so I'm not sure why this one is behaving differently. I located the offending topic, and in UPK, the preview provides a similar error when I try to preview the job aid. Strangely enough though, in the published project, the job aid for that topic prints just fine. I know I can just ignore the error since the finished product works, but I'm just wondering if anyone has some insight as to why this error occurred.
Thanks!
Brenda Hutch

I am having the same issue. It is during export - almost immediately after exporting begins. No file is created.

Publishing Problems with iWeb '08

I have two separate sites (one existing and one new) that I can not publish to MobileMe or to a folder. I can not figure out what the problem as they are very simple sites. I have deleted preferences, rebuilt permissions and reinstalled iWeb. Any ideas or suggestions would be welcome. The Console logs are below:

Try the following: delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, and clear out the User/Library/Caches/iWeb folder, reboot and try again.
Note: If you keep your domain file anywhere other than the User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder you'll need to find it and double click on it to open in iWeb.

I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!

I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!!!!

Try this. It worked for me.
I discovered the same problem. I had an older version of Pages on my iPad. After updating it to the latest version all my previous documents created in pages for the iPad were rendered unreadable and a message stated that they were an invalid format. Why for the life of me would a program that was created by Apple and sense updated not be able to read previous versions...well that's a whole other sad story. Any way I discovered how to fix it but it would require that you had backup your iPad on a computer and not emptied your trash. If this sounds good than here is how you fix it... And it worked for me.
These steps will enable you to reinstall a previous version of the Pages app so you can be able to read and edit older documents.
FIRST: if you did backup your iPad using your computer and did not empty your trash, GOTO the trash and look for PAGES 1.4 (or other number) ipa ( that's the file extension) ie PAGES 1.4 ipa.
SECOND: move that file out of the trash and onto your desktop. Once you do this, double click on it and a box will come up stating a newer version has been found and do you want to revert back to older version. ANSWER YES. It will than automatically place and overwrite the older version back into the file on iTunes that contains the rest of your backed up apps.
THIRD: and this is where it is important that your backup would have to have been on your computer. I'm not sure if backup on the cloud will work. iCloud backup at your own risk And here's why. Before you restore you will need to remove the latest version of Pages off your iPad by doing the usual : holding down the home button until the apps wiggle and remove by pressing on X on app. Removing off your iPad will also delete all your documents but if you have a previous backup on your computer those documents will be stored safely on itunes and will return.
FORTH: plug your iPad into your computer and allow it to sync so iTunes will recognize it. Once iTunes is up and you can see that it recognizes your iPad, GOTO "FILE/DEVICES/RESTORE FROM BACKUP." ******* DO NOT CLICK ON BACKUP***** click on RESTORE FROM BACKUP. This will reinstall all previous settings and documents that were their when you backuped PLUS the older version of Pages that you placed back from the above steps. Let it run through all the setups ( this could take up to 20 minutes...depending on amount of data and photos and apps).
FIFTH: Once everything is reinstalled a message will popup on your computer stating "to leave iPad plugged in until iTunes recognizes it again" ( it's basically rebooting itself). Once done (leave iPad plugged in still) GOTO iPad and follow the steps. IMPORTANT: iPad will ask you if you want to SET IT UP AS A NEW IPAD, BACK UP FROM THE CLOUD or BACK UP FROM ITUNES.....press SET UP AS NEW IPAD. Follow all of the steps required. Once complete GOTO iTunes on computer, look for "IPAD" plus a little arrow ( should be on upper right corner of iTunes window, click on it ( this will safely disconnect your iPad from iTunes) . Now unplug iPad from computer and go to your iPad and look for the older version of Pages. It should be there along with all your old documents ( readable and editable too).
Hope this helps. Good luck.
