LP9 files not opening from Finder?

Is it just me? Or when you double click on a Logic 9 project in Finder, it opens Logic, but not the file itself, meaning I have to either go to Open Recent (in Logic) or Open... and get it...
Also finding the Low Memory problem a little bit comical. On a 3Ghz 8Core MP with 4GB RAM, why is it struggling at 44.1k with Omnisphere, RMX and Akoustik Piano when it was no issue whatsoever in LP8? I do worry what will happen when it comes to having to bounce parts at 96k for the studio...

Terminal Services pdf files not opening from websites

Since installing the latest version 11.0.0.1, users who are inside Terminal Services cannot open up any pdf files from any websites. Opening up pdf attachments from emails etc is not an issue. But when accessing a pdf file online, it will not display. Outside of Terminal Services, the desktop can display the same pdf file just fine. But our users are mainly inside Terminal Services and I need to find a solution to this issue. Thanks.

Please let us know the following details:
1. The browser being used to view the PDFs.
2. Are the PDFs being hosted on a local server or on a public site. Can you try and see if the following PDF is rendered successfully at your end:
http://helpx.adobe.com/content/dam/kb/en/837/cpsid_83708/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_Releas eNote_10.1.2.pdf
3. Are you on a Citrix server. If so, could you let us know the exact version of the Xenapp server being used.

Tricky - PDF file not Opening from Web Browser based application

Hi Guys,
Just a brief history about the issue:
At my client site everything was fine when IE7 was there and everybody were able to open PDF files from web applications in browsers. But after a IE8 upgrade, things changed and customers are facing problems. All are Windows XP SP3 machines
Issue: If they try to open a pdf file from the browser it just stucks at 0% and hangs with "Cancel" button. Even if they try to save that file it tell downloading and hangs again in the screen without downloading the file.
Initial fix:
Open Adobe Reader
-> select the menu "Edit"
-> select "Preferences"
-> select the Category "Internet"
-> set the indicator "Display PDF in browser"
-> Reboot the machine
This fix worrked for some people but many user are still experiencing the same thing even after changing the setting many times.
Friends, Is there anything else might be creating the trouble here. Please let me know, and why it is that for some systems it is working and for it is not ?
Thanks,

There was a browser bug with IE in the past that seemed to span several browser versions. It had to do with the interaction of the browser and the webserver. The short version is that I had to toggle the caching option on the folder.
Here's what I ended up doing for my client:
Move their PDF documents into a subfolder called forms and all Flash animations into a subfolder called flash
Marked all folders in the site to "Expire Immediately" (IIS -> highlight root folder -> Properties)
Individually marked the "/forms" and "/flash" folders to toggle this caching option
In this way, it allowed dynamic pages to deliver non-cached content (from the server's perspective) and it allowed binary downloads like Flash animations and PDF files to work as expected without errors. The bug has to do with the cache-negotiation handshaking that goes on between the browser and server.
This may not be what you're seeing but it's good to remember because I've seen it often: the settings that you'd use to optimize a web applications don't seem to work for binary downloads like a PDF document.

Applications/documents not opening from Finder/Desktop

iMac 17" 800. I returned home after 3 months away to find the iMac in a mess (it is used by my wife and daughter). I repaired preferences and then found the disk to be not repairable with Disk Utilities. I started as a Target Drive and repaired from my MBP using Mac Pilot. Disk Utility showed repair to be good.
The problem is that I can start applications from the Dock and from the Finder using the "Action" box>Open. I cannot open an application by clicking on it nor a document in the Finder. Folders on the Desktop are equally not responsive.
I have done an Archive and Install to Tiger 10.4 and updated back to 10.4.11. The fault was the same throughout. I have deleted User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist-com.apple.finder.plist-com.app le.LaunchServices.plist. All to no avail and the fault remains.
The only other outstanding fault is that the Return key on the keyboard appears to be out of action, although I now get an audio acknowledgement of it being pressed, if nothing else. I am, as all the above has so far failed, wondering if there is some obscure connection?
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
TY
PS Can a keyboard still be flushed out under the tap?

To those of you who might have the same problem!
Just after making this post, I decided to try logging out and logging back in, something I had not done, as far as I can remember, since the computer came out of the box some years ago. I have no idea what happens when you do this with regard to software, but lo and behold, everything is working again. How this happened after an archive and install plus all the upgrades failed to achieve anything I have no clue.
Now to stick the keyboard under the tap - you never know!?
TY

.band files not opening from previous version

I copied my .band files from another mac and cannot open them when copied to my imac running GB 11. Not sure of the version of the older GB software but but the O/S was Mac OSX10 and the previous version of GB. A GetInfo on the .band files says they are GB Projects on the new mac. But when I try to open with either GB 11 or Logic I get a "The file couldn't be opened" message. Any ideas?

Ppt files not opening from server

Hello all,
Strange things are happening;
A MacBook (leopard) places a PowerPoint (ppt) file on the server. It has been made with Microsoft office 2008 and saved as 97-2004 compatibility because there are some co-workers who are not entirely up-to-date.
The files are placed on a 10.5.6 server with AFP, DNS, Open Directory, and SMB running. A client is opening the server share from its Vista client and double clicking the ppt to open it directly from the server, it starts up powerpoint in windows, but then it says "Document cannot be opened/read, do you want to open a copy?"
If so the document opens and can be read. On the server a copy appears.
If the vista client makes a copy of the file to its desktop and opens it from there, there is no problem at all.
Macs have no issue opening the ppt from the share.
Also, if the Windows client first makes a copy of the ppt and then opens it, its all okay. Its like Vista first needs to make the file "windows like" before able to open/edit it.
Repairing disk permissions, updating office with a service pack 2 is not a sollutions. Any1 any ideas?
Many thanks.

Images files not opened from PCM when it store in sharepoint

Dears,
i have a big problem.
i do not able to display or uplaod images attachment files in the Primavera CM 13 sp 5 with sharepoint 2010 repository.
can you help me?

Tried luck to find answer thru web but found not much info about it.

Lion 10.7 - application switches spaces when opened from finder

I am using Lion 10.7 , I assigned dreamweaver to desktop1 by choose Options > This Desktop when in desktop1. Then relaunch DW and it correctly opened in desktop 1. Now if i open a file using in finder (which is itself assigned to desktop3) on a file that is default to DW then Dreamweaver moves itself to Desktop3.
I thought the point was that we could assign different applications to different spaces and they would stay that way. Are we saying that if a file is opened from finder its default application will be moved and set up of spaces does not apply ?.

I just tried this (with iBooks Author). It worked as you would like it to if the app is not running when I double-click the file in Finder. I assigned the app to desktop 4. I quit the app. I went to desktop 1 and double-clicked on a document in the Finder (which, for me, is not assigned to any desktop). I was shuttled off to desktop 4 where the app launched and opened the document. Good.
But, as you say, if the app is already running and I double-click the document, it opens in whichever desktop I happen to be in.
Sounds like a bug, or at least an undesirable feature.
Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback
It would be interesting to figure out if this is a new "feature" of Mission Control, or if this same inconsistency was present in Snow Leopard (where Spaces could also be pretty quirky).

Hi Ashley Clavette,
The Initial view setting works perfectly when the file is opened in Acrobat after setting the desired Initial View.
When you upload the file onto Wordpress, and view it on that website in the browser...it might be using a different pdf handler program which might be causing this issue ( it would be helpful, if you could provide the screenshot) , however when you download the pdf again from wordpress server...and open in Acrobat/Reader...then what exactly happens ? Does the pdf opens in the desired Initial View setting?

Spotlight does not open a finder window when i choose Show all in finder menu?

I have a significant number of files in my Macbook Air. A lot of them are research papers and medical literature.
About a month ago I updated the operating system from snow Leopard to mountain Lion and I had no reasons to complain except a smaller battery time.
Since then I installed every OS update.
After the last update, a few days ago, Spotlight does not open a finder window when i choose Show all in finder menu.
Spotlight continues to work properly if I write a name or expression in spotlight in a finder window but not in the upper left corner at the menu bar
As this been described yet?
Thank you in advance

I had the same problem yesterday after performing a clean install of Mountain Lion (10.8.2) on my MacBook Pro.
I resolved the problem by booting from the Mountain Lion Recovery Partition and then running Disk Utilty (Repair) for the primary disk on which Mountain Lion is installed. It identified (and repaired) many permissions issues...
When I rebooted following the repair, Spotlight worked again properly -- including the "Show All in Finder" function.

Newly installed Acrobat will NOT open from Creative Cloud app on Desktop using Windows 7 Pro - what's the problem?

Newly installed Acrobat will NOT open from Creative Cloud app on Desktop using Windows 7 Pro - what's the problem?

the cc desktop app is used to install and update cc programs (and a few other thinigs). but that does not include 'opening' the installed programs.
click your start button or your program files directory to find the acrobat executable to launch acrobat (and any of your other apps, adobe or otherwise).

/Applications Folder not opening in Finder but works in Terminal

Hi guys,
I recently upgraded to Yosemite, but I'm not sure if this is a Yosemite-related bug.
My application folder (/Applications) does not open in finder (see screenshots)
The spinner keep spinning in the bottom right corner.
Also, when I "Get Info", it keeps calculating the size and never completes.
Also, when I drag the Applications folder to the dock, nothing happens.
However, it works fine in Terminal:
$ cd /; ls -lh
drwxrwxr-x+ 129 root   admin   4.3K Oct 17 03:14 Applications
When I go inside the Applications folder (in terminal), I can list all the files in it.Oddly enough, most of them are greyed out, and it only says "total 8" when I have way more than 8 apps.
$ cd /Applications; ls -lh
total 8
drwxr-xr-x   4 root   wheel   136B Apr 23 2013 3Hub.app

I can even open my apps in Terminal:
$ cd /Applications; open Notes.app
Mission Control works fine as well.
Does anyone know how I can see my Applications in Finder?
I've tried the usual Disk Utility (verify/repair permissions) and even reinstalled a fresh copy of Mac OSX Yosemite (using recovery).
Note: I did mess around with ~/Library/Preferences immediately after installing Yosemite because of the background flashing bug (I deleted some plists files to fix that bug).
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Drew, I have previously done everything you have listed as possible remedies, with no success.
Well in that case the options I see are…
1.
This seems like a 'defaults write tweak' or similar system level modification that is failing on the latest OS.
Revert any applied system tweaks from apps like Secrets or Onyx, that is if you remember applying any (these can be things like 'no-glass dock', no shadows on screenshots etc).
Your Terminal may have the command history saved. Try 'history' in that app to see if you have any 'defaults write' changes listed. Post them here for help to revert them.
It seems likely to me that the 'background flashing bug' mentioned earlier by helloziy was fixing a bad defaults write setting (preferences store the defaults write tweaks). If you have one 'bad tweak', there are probably others elsewhere on the system.
2.
I would consider backing up, erasing the internal disk & clean installing the OS. Migrate ONLY your user data back to the new install (avoid Applications & 'other files' - they could be the reason for this issue). You will need to reinstall apps as you need them.
3.
Another possibility is using EtreCheck to view what everyone has installed & running…
http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck
It would basically be a case of comparing affected reports & then removing or reinstalling apps until something changes (a crapshoot).
Etrecheck will not tell you about any 'defaults write' or other system modifications.
4.
I'd backup & consider removing all system preferences. This is drastic & may break many things until you alter the default settings!
Reboot into recovery mode & remove the contents of /Library/Preferences from the boot disk, it will need to be done in Terminal.
You need to do this when the OS isn't running because Mac OS will cache preferences and some values will be written back to new files even after deleting the original files. Keep a backup of the files handy incase the OS breaks on next reboot!
Sorry it's not a solution, but it may help some diagnosis that get you closer to one.

Quick Time file not opening

Suddenly QuickTime 7.5.5 stopped opening the movies stored in one Hard Disc.
Here are descriptions of how problem occurs:
1) The preview in finder +column view+ shows only blank space, but not a movie.
2) Instead of opening the file QT claims that "This is not a movie file"
3) Not all the movies in the disk are injured but about 80 % of them. There might be in same folder movies that behaves normally and movies that behaves as described above.
I have restarted the machine few times and repaired the disk with disk utility, with not any couraging results...
If there were any ideas what the problem might be, and how to fix it, advices would be very much appreciated.
Screenshots of the problem:
http://koti.welho.com/tsuonio1/File-not-open.jpg

Two possibilities spring to mind. One is that the HD itself has been damaged somehow. Try copying one of the "bad" video files to your boot drive and opening from there. If it won't copy, your HD is clearly bad, if it copies and plays then something weirder is going on with the drive.
The other possibility has to do with the h264 codec you used. Apple's implementation of the H264 standard is a work in progress, they've been gradually adding features that are part of the full standard and may have broken something. If you recently upgraded QT that may be the problem. If you created the files using a third party H264 codec that might explain the playback problems. Also, you should install Perian (www.perian.org) and see if that helps, their codec plays back many formats that Apple doesn't support out of the box.
You may need to upload one of the bad files to an filesharing website of some kind so that other folks here can download and look at it themselves.

Why will PDF not open from email?

I recently modified my Adobe Reader 9.1 (with instructions from the bank) to be able to electronically sign documents.
Since then I can not open any PDF documents from email. I went back and reversed the changes I made. I uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled it. No luck.
I have to save the documents and open them from Windows Explorer.
Any Ideas?

A fast workaround for PDF problem (See my original post)
In Firefox:
Open Tools > Options > Under Main tab click Save files to > click Browse
Scroll up or down to find where you want it to go (I put mine under Documents because it's the easiest to find).
Click New folder and label it something you will quickly recognize.
Now when you click on a PDF attachment it will automatically be sent to that file and you can double click or open
it in Adobe Reader
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Note) If I use Internet Explorer (I have not used IE in years) I can open PDF's from Hotmail with out a problem.
I like Firefox better so I will continue to use the quick workaround until somebody finds a fix.
If you use IE, here are the instructions for saving PDF files.
Click
to open Windows Mail.
Open a message that contains an attachment by double-clicking it
in the message list.
In the message window, click the File menu,
and then click Save Attachments.
Select the folder where you want to save the attachments.
By default,
Windows Mail saves attachments in your
Documents folder. If you want to save the attachments to a different folder,
click Browse, and then select a folder.
Select the attachments that you want to save, and then click Save.
