New excel file cannot be opened with right click in any folder.

Usually I create a new file (.xlsx) by right click inside any folder of windows 7 . Recently I am observing that it is not being possible to create a new file (.xlsx) by right click when I am inside a folder. Whenever I right click in order to create a
new file no excel file icon or word file icon is found visible there though at that time other applications like access, power point and publisher file icons are visible. Only excel and word file icons are invisible. I don't know what the cause may be. I think
I have turned off some option by mistake. Is there any solution to this problem? How can I have the opportunity again?

Hi Nurulamin,
Thanks for your post, however, since this isnot an exchange issue, I recommend you post this in Windows Client Forum
also, as they should have more professional knowledge and you may get effective solution timely.
Thanks for your understanding!

Do you have any password or encryption settings in your Runtime Properties?I do not think so, but not sure. Is there a way to check it? Is there a properties file.
Did I misunderstood it? but I can place both PDF and HTML files to the target location, the HTML filess are good only PDF files cannot be open by Adobe Read.

InDesign files won't open with double click

InDesign files won't open with double click on my MacPro with Snow Leopard although they do open from external hard drives when I double click.

Thank you very much,you were correct, it appears the mouse clicks were set too fast. Thank you very much indeed for taking the time to answer my question.

PDF file won't open with double click

Mac OSX 10.6.8/Acrobat 10.1.3.
Suddenly pdf files won't open with a double click, I now have to open Acrobat and file>open.
Also, once they're open, they won't close by clicking the red close dot, I now have to go to file>close.
Very frustrating!

Even reinstalling doesn't work with the standard Creative Suite installer. Except for the double-click bug, Acrobat doens't respond to dock-tasks either, like <right-mouse-click> on dock icon and select <quit>.
In this version of Acrobat, the repair function doen't seem to exist anymore. Sadly....
So the problem keeps existing, even with the laterst 10.1.4 version.

CS2 files won't open with double clicking

Not sure what's going on here but my InDesign CS2 files don't see the InDesign application as the default. I have right-clicked and gone to "Open with ..." but get this, InDesign CS2 isn't in the application list.
OK, so I Browse to the application - no problems there, but when I select InDesign.exe and click "OK" .... it still doesn't appear in the list.
The only thing I have done recently is uninstall our old version of InDesign CS which was no longer being used.
Any ideas ? I'm stumped.

Thanks for the suggestion Mike - I ran a registry cleanup as you suggest - found a few problems as well ! However, no joy with the file association. InDesign still doesn't appear in the options list and when I browse to:
Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS2\InDesign.exe
and select InDesign.exe, the application still doesn't appear in the list !
Any other ideas ?

Can windows 7 'open with' right click open more than 1 picture at a time?

A few times I have been given a usb drive or SD card & asked to enhance a few pictures for someone. I usually just select one picture & then right click open wirh & select PSE. The problem with doing this is that I can only send one picture at a time to PSE. Is it possible to get the open with command to have more than 1 picture open? I'm using windows 7 pro.

Hi,
You could try using the "Send To" option but you first have to create a shortcut.
Use the windows explorer to navigate to
C:\Users\"Your User Name"\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
In that folder create a new shortcut to the PSE editor.
Then you use it by selecting the images you want to process, right click and select Send To - the editor should appear in the list.
Hope that helps

Desktop files won't open with mouse click

I'm sure this has an obvious solution, but I can't find it.
(I'm on a new Powerbook G4 running Tiger)
When I try to open a folder or file on my desktop by double clicking it, nothing happens.
However, when I click once on the folder/icon to highlight it, then hit Command + O, it opens/launches.
I want to be able to open files with my touchpad without having to use the keys. Is there a setting for this?
Thanks!!!!
Powerbook G4 15" Mac OS X (10.4.1)

You might want to go into the System Preferences under "Keyboard & Mouse" and check your double-click settings. Also, if I understand correctly, to click using the trackpad itself, you can select "Clicking" under the trackpad options.

Multiple new windows opens when I click on any folder in Administrator (user account) folder.

Whenever, I try to open any folder or sub-folder in my Administrator account, it automatically opens new multiple
windows with same folder.
For example, I tried to open a folder in my "Downloads" it automatically opened 2 new windows with same folder contents.
What should I do to open it in the same window?
Is there any way to repair this annoying problem...
Somebody please help!

Hi,
If the above setting
arnavsharma provided is configured properly, please try following things:
Open up Registry Editor, and go to:
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxx-1000\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\

In the 'Open with' Right click options - why do some apps show several times?

Notably, Evernote and Pixelmator (both downloaded from the Mac App Store)
It's hardly the biggest problem I know - but it does look rather messy.
Anoyone know a way to fix this?
Thanks in advance!

I felt a bit wary about downloading a third-party app to do this, so I didn't use that tool. However, you did help me by using the correct terminology which allowed me to find a solution which I could do myself.
I found the solution here, as provided by Macjack:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/19418151#19418151
Basically, copy and paste the code into Terminal and hit enter.
Thanks anyway QuickTime Kirk! I've thanked.

I am unable to open pdf links using firefox 4 beta 11. Error message is "....ashx file cannot be opened, because an unknown error occurred. Try saving to disk first and then opening file"

I can open some pdf file in FF beta 11 using Adobe reader, however some links to pdf files cannot be opened. When clicked, the error message above appears. There is no option to open the file, so I have had to switch to Safari to read these pdf file.

Please install the following add-on to see if it helps.

Download Excel file through Web dynpro with no windows open?

Can we have a web dynpro application that just returns an Excel file in the response with no open windows? Similar to a java servlet that is used to download a Excel file?
This basically means that I cannot use wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createNonModalExternalWindow()
Java Servlet Code
HttpSession session = request.getSession();      // get a handle on the session id
response.setContentType("application/download");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "filename=RTIS_Report.xls");
PrintWriter out = null;
out = response.getWriter();
String report = request.getParameter("REPORT");
JCO.Table lines = download(request, session, report);
for (int i = 0; i < lines.getNumRows(); i++) {
     lines.setRow(i);
     String content = lines.getString("LINES") + "\n";
     out.write(content);
     out.flush();
out.flush();
out.close();

Hi,
I think you can use IWD Cached Web Resource to achieve this..
See the below code FYI..
public void downloadToExcel( )
    String fileName = "Customer" + ".xls";
     IWDCachedWebResource cachedExcelResource = null;
     try
          File f = new File("Customer.xls");
          WritableWorkbook workbook =   Workbook.createWorkbook(f);
          WritableFont black = new WritableFont(WritableFont.createFont("Trebuchet MS"),WritableFont.DEFAULT_POINT_SIZE,WritableFont.BOLD,false,UnderlineStyle.SINGLE,Colour.BLACK);
          WritableCellFormat blackFormat = new WritableCellFormat(black);
          WritableFont blue = new WritableFont(WritableFont.createFont("Trebuchet MS"),WritableFont.DEFAULT_POINT_SIZE,WritableFont.NO_BOLD,false,UnderlineStyle.NO_UNDERLINE,Colour.BLUE);
          WritableCellFormat blueFormat = new WritableCellFormat(blue);
          WritableSheet sheet = workbook.createSheet("Customer", 0);
               Label label;
               String[] header={"Corporate Code","Batch ID"};
               for (int i=0;i<2;i++)
                    label = new Label(i,0,header<i>.toString(),blackFormat);
                    sheet.addCell(label);
               WritableCellFormat integerFormat = new WritableCellFormat(NumberFormats.INTEGER);
               jxl.write.Number number;
               // Reading the contents
               for(int i=0;i<wdContext.nodeVn_DownloadToExcel().size();i++)
                    String strCorpName = wdContext.currentContextElement().getVa_CorpCode();
                    String strBatchID =     wdContext.nodeVn_DownloadToExcel().getVn_DownloadToExcelElementAt(i).getVa_BatchID();
                    label = new Label(0,i+1,strCorpName,blueFormat);
                    sheet.addCell(label);
                    label = new Label(1,i+1,strBatchID,blueFormat);
                    sheet.addCell(label);
               workbook.setColourRGB(Colour.LIME, 0xff, 0, 0);
               workbook.write();
               FileInputStream excelCSVFile = new FileInputStream(f);
               IWDCachedWebResource cachedWebResource = null;
               if (excelCSVFile!= null)
                    cachedWebResource = WDWebResource.getWebResource(excelCSVFile, WDWebResourceType.getWebResourceType("xls","application/ms-excel"));
               cachedWebResource.setResourceName(fileName);
          cachedExcelResource = cachedWebResource;

Numbers file created w new version of Numbers on my mac and then transferred via Dropbox to my ipad: file cannot be opened by iOS version of Numbers

Numbers file created w new version of Numbers on my mac and then transferred via Dropbox to my ipad: file cannot be opened by iOS version of Numbers

Hi Jocomo,
That's correct. Dropbox does not handle Numbers 3.0 for Mac and Numbers 2.0 for iOS documents well at all. They will probably fix this.
But why are you using Dropbox for this? Numbers has built-in iCloud integration for the very purpose of syncing documents back and forth. It's much easier than using Dropbox even if Dropbox could handle the new Numbers format. And it's now quite reliable.
To enable iCloud with Numbers on your Mac:
In System Preferences>iCloud make sure you have Documents & Data turned on:
And after clicking Options, make sure you have checked Numbers.app:
On your iPad you need to make sure iCloud sync is turned on in TWO places:
Settings>iCloud>Documents & Data>Numbers
Settings>Numbers>Use iCloud
If you have entered the right iCloud credentials on your Mac and iPad, Numbers will then sync back and forth. It's much easier than putting in Dropbox and then having to Open in... , etc. You can of course still keep backup copies of your documents in Dropbox if you want.

I have put a lot of work into a docx document on my Mac, but now can't open it as it gives the error message: 'the Open XML file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents. Details, Unspecific
error, Location: 2'
When opening the original file the message said: 'this file contains word 2007 for Windows equations' etc. but I managed to track changes fine, and saved, closed and re-opened it numerous times without problem. Some graphs seemed moved, and various formulas
were illegible, but no other weirdness was observed.
