Not able to unarchive .zip files

I can't unzip .zip archives after the last updates. seems strange when all worked well before the update and the updates only effected iTunes and Quicktime. I reintstalled the system and had the same problems.. unarchiving starts and locks up when using the finder and when using Stuffit expander.
I'm using OSX 10.3.9
any ideas how to fix this?

Hi Geidden
Welcome to Discussions.
The file you are trying to unzip may be corrupted.
Can you unzip something else that has unzipped in the past?
It is a good idea to run Repair Permissions before and after an update. You could run Repair Permissions now.
Open Stuffit Expander , found in Applications/Utilities and in the menubar, iSupport, select Check for Updates. I am not sure what the latest version is for 10.3.9, but perhaps it needs to be newer to match your other updates.
But, it is likely a bad zip file that is causing this.
If you are familiar with Terminal you could create a zipfile and then see if Stuffit will unzip it. If you are not familiar with terminal, than I may rue that suggestion

  • Not able to attach .zip files in mails in latest safari on yosemite

    Safari in yosemite is not taking the .zip / .numbers / .xls files for attachment. Giving empty file error.

    Hi ..
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:  Remove All Website Data
    No open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that didn't help, try troubleshooting extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

        Hi Rohit ,
    I had copied these .class & .xml files under Myclasses -> oracle.apps.icx and oracle.apps.po and oracle.apps.fnd was same which comes part of the standard OA tutorial.
    I copied same under Myprojects as well.
    you have to decompile the class file into java file and then place it in Myproject directory , also copy all dependency files like BC4J components , and then
    try to run from Jdeveloper .
    Alternatively you can get the entire ICX folder and zip it and add it via library .

  • PI is not able to pick the file from the FTP folder

    This is the FILE TO IDOC scenario. We have configured the file adapter. But its not able to pick the file from the specified directory. We have tried changing the transfer mode from Binary to Txt & also we have tried to put advance selection for source file but it didn't work. Its throwing the below error:
    PI Adapter Log:
    An error occurred while connecting to the FTP server '10.130.150.21:8529'. The FTP server returned the following error message: 'com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 451 Unexpected reply coderequested action aborted: local error in processing'. For details, contact your FTP server vendor.
    Also we have contacted the FTP team & they told that PI is sending an unsupported command. So instead of taking the file TLOG.txt, its treating this file name a s a directory. Please find the logs from FTP end below:

    It should list  *TLOG.txt*  but instead it is trying to get into a directory named  *TLOG.txt*.  same for other interface.
    So me & my team is struggling for last couple of days to fix this issue.Please share your suggestion

    Hi Sisir
    The screen shot of your config doesn't seem to correspond to the FTP log. I say this because the * is dropped from file name pattern "*TLOG.txt" (comparing your config and the FTP log). Can you share an updated FTP log?

    Also, like Rajesh suggested, have you tried to manually check permissions by logging in, traversing the directory, and getting the file?
    By the way, we always use backslash \ instead of forward slash in our configs. Not sure this would make any difference for you though. Also, I don't normally use a trailing \ at the end of the source directory path.

  • I'm not able to open PDF files in Adobe Reader XI.

    I recently updated to Adobe Reader XI and now I can't open any of my PDF documents or PDF e-mail attachments.  When I click on a document I now get a window that asks if I want to allow this file to open.  I click yes and get a monstrousity the likes I've never seen.  It blacks out my screen for a couple seconds and then I get a mixture of my desktop, task bar, and a window wanting to know if I want to open this with Protected Mode disabled.  It only fills 3/4 of the screen, the items all all blown-up in size, and are distorted.  In playing with this I have gotten notes that I have an "Incompatable Application" and "Acrobat failed to connect to a DDS Server".  On occasion I will get an Adobe Reader screen that is completely greyed out with no content in it and after a couple of seconds it goes off.  Other times I got the window about Protected Mode and I've clicked on to disable it but that doesn't work either.  I removed Adobe Reader XI and re-installed Adobe Reader X and I still have the same problem which I did not have before.  I 'm running Windows 7 Professional and have McAfee anti-virus, which I have disbled on one occasion during download and that I still had the same problem.  I went to program files to find the End User License Agreement and try to see if I needed to click on 'Accept" but it tells me the file does not exist.  I even tried using System Restore to take me back to before I did the upgrade to Adobe Reader XI and I still have this problem.  I'm at the end of my knowledge level and because these files are needed in my business I'm only able to operate at about 50%.

  • I'm not able to save any files on an none apple external hard drive, what can i do to make it work?

    I bought a omega 320GB external hard drive so a friend could save the files off an old windows laptop i had but now when i try and open the files on my mac, it doesn't let me. i'm also not able to save any file on to this hard drive either! can some one please help me?

    The drive has the NTFS format, which the Mac OS can read but can't write to. Copy the files from the external drive onto your Mac, then reformat the external drive using Disk Utility, creating a Mac OS Extended volume and using the GUID partition scheme. Then you'll be able to write to the drive. Note that reformatting erases everything from the drive, so don't do it until after you've saved the drive's contents to other media.

  • Not able to convert word file to PDF using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard

    Hi,
    I am not able to convert word file to PDF using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard. When I try to convert, it starts the process and in between I am getting this prompt, as shown in figure below and the conversion process stops. The PDF is not created.
    Note: The filename 'Acr85.doc' in the above prompt keeps changing and is random.
    I tried clicking Yes, No and Cancel on the above prompt, but the conversion process just stops and PDF is not getting generated.
    I am able to create PDFs from web pages. No issues with that. Not working only with Word.
    Can someone help me with this.
    Thanks,

    In MSWord please changes the settings as "Adobe PDF" menu => "Change Conversion Settings" goto Tab Bookmark and clicks the option Convert Word Bookmarks. Now you convert the Doc to PDF you can achieve the Bookmark.
    Hope this help you

  • I am not able to open my file! Captivate 5

    I don’t know who else to send this to right now, but I have been working on a project that is DUE.  I am not sure why, but I am not able to open the file.  Please help me are direct me to someone that can.
    Here's the error message received:
    Adobe Captivate could not open, "file name" Ensure that:
    File is not open already
    File is not damaged
    The hard disk has enough space
    Close all windows
    I need this file open asap. 
    And yes...I cleared the Cache

    Hello,
    This is by design: I failed to explain well. The file exists as long as the file is open, sort of protection that it is not changed by someone else. It will disappear when you close the file. But the first error message at your originial question pointed perhaps to the fact that the file was not closed in a normal way, hence the lock file was perhaps still there. If you deleted the lock file you could have opened the file again, it was no longer protected. Hope my explanation is now a bit clear?
