No file association in konqueror on fluxbox

hi. on kde konqueror works fine but on fluxbox when i want to open some file I always heve to "Open With..." and write the app i want to use;/ also when i check "remember application association for this type of file" i doesnt' seve it ;/ any ideas??

Hi,
this means that your files have been renamed or deleted or moved to a new folder location. It's also possible that the folder in which they were contained has been renamed or deleted. Such files are said to be missing. You need to double click on one such file thumbnail, a reconnect message will be shown Try reconnecting it manually by clicking Browse.
Also check path of one such file by doing Right click on file thumbnail >> Show Properties. Browse to that location and see if files are present in that location or not.
Thanks

  • Midnight commander questions. menu file & associations file

    hi! i use tuxcmd all time, but find myself interested in try mc, first because it can be transparent and integrates with my transparent desktop:
    but i read this manual  http://www.chm.tu-dresden.de/edv/mc/mc4.5/manual1.html  and dont know how to make a couple of things in first place...
    1. when i start mc it sorts files in a confusing (for me) way tuxcmd shows me first the "dot" directories, next the "not dot" directories , next the "dot" files and finally the files, all in alphabetic order. how to achieve that sorting in mc?
    2. in tuxcmd i have the options to sort (maintaining the number 1 item sort fashion) by date (newest files first) by name, by extension. how to do this in mc?
    3. in tuxcmd i add to it a lot of file associations to my common use files, like when i right click a media file, i have my programs like open with mplayer, xine, vlc, ffmpeg -i (shows me info about the file), etc. what file or what i need to do to have file associations like that in mc? so i can just double click the file and it opens with his associated program?
    THANKS!!!

  • File associations in Windows 8.1 for applications on a network location

    Hi,
    From Windows 7 to Windows 8 it has been done alot of changes regarding file file assocations. It seem that the main reason was security and was "patched" by having Windows read the hash for the applications instead of where the application was
    located.
    but there seem to be some major hicups and there is limited info on the web covering these issues.
    First issue: when running:  Dism /Online /Export-DefaultAppAssociations:\\Server\Share\AppAssoc.xml and then creating a GPO configuration pointing to
    thi XML file.  With this feature only common file extensions is supported and when users are changing to another computer, these settings is not possible to syncronize using roaming profiles.
    Second issue: In the appassoc.xml file applications must be either appid(metro app) or common application on local harddrive to be registered and not a .EXE
    file on a network location.
    It seems a little strange if this is the case and if there is no other options for administratos to set file associations in more flexible ways. Does anyone have some more info on
    this topic other than these link:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh825038.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

    https://keithga.wordpress.com/2013/11/13/file-associations-in-windows-8/

    Hi Primeid,
    You could use Group policy for file associations or you could deploy the xml file during image deployment. However as you mentioned that the file associations only applies to common application on local hard drive or metro app.

    We understand your confusion about this, but we hope you understand that using network location for file association deployment is highly insecure and it is out of our recommendation since the content in that network location could be changed without any
    notification or permissions constraint.
    Thanks for your understanding.

  • File Associations in CS 5.5 for Win7

    I preordered CS 5.5 Web Premium and just installed it.  I also uninstalled my previous version Adobe suite (CS4).  Now none of the file associations have been made for any of the Adobe related file types.  So for example, psd files are now associated with quicktime.  When I try to change the file association (set it to PhotoShop) it does not allow me to do so.  It acts like nothing happened.  What can I do?  Do I need to uninstall and reinstall?

    I have exactly the same issue affecting InDesign and Illustrator. Photoshop had the same issue but it allowed you to set the default program. It seems the only way to do it is to open the program and open the document from there. This is a complete pain!

  • File associations in Bridge CS4

    I would like to set the file associations for NEF files as Photoshop (as the default) and Nikon Capture. If I browse to Nikon Capture, Bridge will allow me to set both it and Photoshop as associations, but insists on making Capture the default. If I then click on Photoshop, to attempt to make it the default, Bridge won't allow Capture as an association. How can I have both programs listed, but with Photoshop as the default (so that if I double-click on the thumbnail, Photoshop will open)? Thanks.

    All,
    I copied this from the Vista Help:
    Change the program that opens a type of file
    If you double-click a file in Windows and it opens in the wrong software program, follow these steps to choose the program you would prefer that file use. You can change this setting for an individual file, or you can tell Windows to open all files of that same type in the software program you choose.
    1. Open the folder that contains the file you want to change.
    2. Right-click the file that you want to change, and then, depending on the type of file, either click Open With or point to Open With and then click Choose Default Program.
    3. Click the program that you want to use to open this file.
    4. Do one of the following:
    4A. If you want all files of that type to open in the same software program, select the Always use the selected program to open this kind of file check box, and then click OK.
    4B. If you want only that file to open in the software program this one time, clear the Always use the selected program to open this kind of file check box, and then click OK.

  • File associations in Bridge CC after updating to CC 2014

    I am facing a problem with the file association settings in Bridge CC after having updated my other creative suite programs to version CC 2014.
    In previous version I had the option when opening eg. PDF file to chose "open with", and then chose Illustrator or Photoshop. This option is no longer available. When using the Preference menu under file association I can only change the default settings to be either Acrobat or for some reason Firefox. When browsing for Illustrator or Photoshop and choosing the program the PDF file will only open in Illustrator or Photoshop as default not Acrobat as it is suppose to. Does anybody have a solution to this problem.

    Thank you for the answer, but is doesn't fix the problem. The explorer settings lets me open pdf files in Acrobat, Illustrator or Photoshop.
    The problem is that Bridge doesn't allow me to open pdf files in Illustrator.
    When trying to solve the problem by altering the file type association settings, browsing and choosing Illustrator CC 2014, the pdf files will then open by default in Illustrator, and this is not what i want. I want the option to chose, open with Illustrator, and still have Acrobat as the default program. 
    Anybody know how to fix this?

  • File Associations in Bridge

    I've installed and activated Photoshop CS6 (64-bit, Windows 7).  The file associations in Bridge are all blown, defaulting either to "none" or IE Explorer.  When I try to open a file from Bridge, it opens in Windows Live Photo Gallery, and right-clicking does not return Photoshop as one of the choices.  This occurs with Raw files as well as jpegs and tiffs.  This has never happened to me with CS4 or CS5, nor with the CS6 Beta that I had been using (and uninstalled before installing CS6).  Do I have to manually re-set all of the file associations?  How does Bridge not recognize the program of which it is a sub-program?

    Thanks for the response.  I did uninstall CS5 after installing CS6, but it still seems illogical that Bridge wouldn't default to Photoshop for any file types.  I also tried resetting to "default" settings, and that just changed the few I had fixed back to "none".  I tried your suggestion for the three resets, and that did not improve the situation.  Should I re-install the whole program? (This was an upgrade package:  Does CS5 need to be installed for me to do that?).
    Thanks again.

  • File associations in Bridge CS4 for multiple images

    After a "cache purge" my file associations got altered.  I can go into Edit>preferences> file associations and change that to photoshop; but if I click MULTIPLE images in Bridge and right click "open with" I only get Illustrator as an option.  How can I change this to photoshop as a default when trying to open MULTIPLE images?

    Ronald Keller - thank you.  I am practically in tears laughing about how something so completely simple has had me fretting for days.  Could it be my over 60 mind has completely failed me now, or is it I am just a bit rusty on using my software?  Anyway, thank you for taking the time to offer up this response!

  • File associations in bridge for photoshop cc (2014)

    I have just installed Photoshop cc (2014), but Bridge still opens Photoshop cc.
    Do I have to change the file associations in Bridge manually or is there a shortcut?

    Ha, you're lucky! Mine changed the default to Illustrator as the only choice unless you browse to the application exe for some reason!

  • Problem with file association in Photoshop

    I am using Adobe Photoshop CS4, and I also have Adobe After Effects on my computer (which I don't use).  For some reason, when I click on a photograph in Adobe Bridge, the After Effects program opens, but the photo I want to open in Photoshop does not open.  I have reset the file associations in Photoshop, but Bridge ignores the settings and will only open After Effects.  How can I prevent this and return to having Photoshop open my photographs?
    Thank you for your help.

    Might try posting in the Bridge forum.
    If you're runign a Macinotsh, you an trash the bridge.plist but that's not always a good idea so don't do that till you know there's no better answer.

  • File Association, Open File, Edit File

    Vibe is told to support > 400 file formats and that the file viewing capabilities are provided by Oracle Outside In viewer technology that supports over 500 unstructured file formats.
    Testing with Firefox 33.1 on Linux desktops and Vibe 3.4 on SLES11SP3, the following basic file management options beyond Download/Save and possibly View, are available for some typical file types:
    PDF
    + Opening in the browser pdf preview
    DWG
    + Open with
    ODT
    + Open with
    + Edit
    DOC
    + Open with
    + Edit
    DOCX
    TXT
    + Edit
    I wonder why "Open with" and "Edit" is not available for DOCX, as long as the document was intially created with LibreOffice on the Linux desktop?
    In my opinion also complete file action options should be brought up in a context menu by right-click (as usual in File managers) on any file in the folder Files list.
    Is there any configuration file on Vibe that can be edited to complement the available file actions for DOCX files etc ?
    The Vibe Admin guide has a chapter about Configuring File Associations for Edit in Place Applications, but I'm not sure how to do this and if this will help here https://www.novell.com/documentation.../b10u30w2.html
    Else, in Firefox Edit>Preferences>Applications it is possible to set Actions for various file types (content), and in Gnome 3,x System settings | Details | Default Applications can be selected.
    Thanks,
    Terje J. Hanssen

    Hi Pawel,
    I tried first as user to change the default editor settings for .docx to libreoffice according to the documentation
    https://www.novell.com/documentation...s.html#bk59mem
    but with no difference as result.
    Click on the .docx file pop up the Opening .docx widget which only offers the file options Cancel and Save.
    There is still no "Open with" option available.
    There is still not 'Edit This File' relevance tab available, nor contains the 'File Actions' any Edit option.
    Any idea why the .docx file type is missing this fundamental file management features in Vibe?

  • Windows Server 2008 R2: Different file associations when double-clicking vs. right-click - open

    I have a basic .xml file on my Windows 2008 R2 desktop. I have set the file association for .xml files to Adobe FrameMaker 12. When I double-click the .xml file, it opens with FrameMaker. When I right-click -> open the .xml file, it opens with Notepad.
    I need the .xml file to always open with FrameMaker, even when I use right-click -> open. How can I set this up for all users on a Windows 2008 R2 server?
    Thank you!
    -Nicole

    Hi Nicole,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    When you double-click on a file in Windows explorer, the Windows shell looks up the extension of the file in the registry to see if the extension is registered. If the extension is not registered, Windows displays the Open With dialog box, allowing the
    user to choose an application to associate with the file type. If the extension is registered, Windows calls the ShellExecute() function with a command of "open." It also passes the name of the file that was double-clicked as a command line parameter. 
    Associations go further than simply opening a file, though. If you right-click on a text file (.TXT) in Explorer you will see two items at the top of the context menu. The first is named Open. Choosing this menu item is the same as double-clicking the
    file in Explorer. When you choose Open, NOTEPAD.EXE will be started with the selected file loaded (assuming a default Windows installation). The second menu item is called Print. Clicking this menu item will cause the file to be printed without displaying
    Notepad at all.
    There is some registry setting for the application association to take place, you can edit them under following path.
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Test App File
    (Quoted from below article)

  • GNOME and KDE file associations

    Hi,
    I like to use KDE and GNOME, alternating between them. Sounds crazy, but I like both. Please, let's avoid the "GNOME vs. KDE" discussion, right?
    My problem is: I like to use different file associations when I'm using GNOME or KDE. For example, I'd like to associate text files with gedit in GNOME and with Kate in KDE. But if I associate text files to gedit in GNOME, when I run KDE and open a text file it opens gedit. If I associate them with Kate in KDE, when I'm using GNOME it'll use Kate as its text editor.
    Some time ago I could have both desktop environments without this mess. Can I have this behaviour back?

    Yeah, I got tired of Evolution not knowing about opening *.docs in openoffice.  After several hours of research, the key is the /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache,  /opt/gnome/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache, and the MimeType fields in the *.desktop files.  The mimeinfo.cache in /usr was empty and the /opt one had gthumb and other apps but no OO:
    [MIME Cache]
    application/x-gnome-stones=gnome-stones.desktop
    image/jpeg=gthumb.desktop
    application/postscript=ggv.desktop
    ...snip...
    That's a lot of blather to say that the fix for Evolution/OpenOffice was to add the proper MimeType entry to /usr/share/applications/ooo645writer.desktop:
    MimeType=application/vnd.ms-word;application/msword
    and then run "update-desktop-database".  Problem solved.
    Another problem is that within Evolution it says an attached doc is a "application/msword" and not a "Microsoft Word Document".  Unfortunately this is because freedesktop.org decided to use application/vnd.ms-word instead of application/msword like the rest of the world.  If you check the vnd.ms-word entry in /usr/share/mime/packages/freedesktop.org.xml it defines an alias msword but the new mime system doesn't appear to recognize aliases yet.  The solution I used was to rename the entry to msword.  Another possible solution might be to remove the msword alias from the vnd.ms-word entry and create a new msword entry based on the vnd.ms-word one.  Then run "update-mime-database /usr/share/mime".  Hope that made sense.
    I think the defaults.list is part of the previous GNOME MIME setup cause I don't have one and I'm not experiencing any problems.  For other apps check for the associations in the mimeinfo.cache's and if missing add the MimeType's to the app's *.desktop.

  • Do I have to change file associations in Windows 7 one at a time?

    I changed my ancient Paint Shop Pro for Elements 11 but the file associations are still PSP. I can change them one at a time but that will take forever! Is there a way to associate all the appropriate files in one go?  I managed it many years ago in PSP and Windows XP but have no idea how; I'm hoping someone will know. Thank you.

    ok.

  • "Error occurred in deployment step 'Retract Solution': The solution does not have a WSP file associated with it." occurs while deploying from Visual studio

    HI,
    I get this error "Error occurred in deployment step 'Retract Solution': The solution does not have a WSP file associated with it. " when deploying my project from visual studio 2010 to
    SharePoint 2010 site. I tried restarting IIS, but it didn't help. This application used to work fine until the server crashed during the deployment process. All the other applications on the same server works fine also. Any ideas how to fix this issue? 
    Thanks in advance,
    AM

    Hi
    AM ,
    Thank you for your posting!
    According to your error message, it says your solution does not have a WSP file associated with it. Take a look at the file system.  After you Right Click -> Deploy Solution on the VS Solution, there
    should be a .wsp file at <Solution Directory>\bin\<debug|release>.
    Also the error can be occurring when the developer try to deploy solutions over pre-existing solutions  with material changed  in the solution.  Go to your Central Administration Site and then
    Operations and then Solution Management.  Make sure that there not already a solution with the same name deployed or installed there.  If there is, remove it and try deploying again.
    And you could look in logs and find if there is a below error in ULS log (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS).
    Thank you for your understanding and support.
