"Open File with" doesn't work correctly!

Hello,
for some files Bridge chooses the false software to open them.
There seems to be no way to change the properties for the "open with" function.
To be more concrete:
- Bridge tries to open MindManager files ".mmap" using Safari for Windows.
- Within Windows the ".mmap" files are correctly assigned
- Bridge doesn't offer this file type in the association preferences.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Michael

Thank you for the answer, you are correct, the ".mmap" file isn't listed in Bridge.
But Bridge should be able to let an other software open it, as it usually does for other not listed exotic files I'm using. For such a common thing Bridge would only need to ask me: "which software do you want to use to open it?" Which is also a very common function in Windows. Or Bridge should simply accept my common Windows preferences where the ".mmap" file is very clearly associated with the correct application. Bridge seems to ignore this, which is very strange!
I'm not interested in converting the files, but just in managing them in Bridge, and using them within the software they are designed for: MindManager, a Mind Mapping software by Mindjet.

"open file" vi doesn't work in executable

I have built an executable that reads a com port and displays the readings in a chart.
The vi also has a "start logging" button that uses the "open file", "write to file", and "close file" vi's, and it works on the machine with labview installed on it.
When saving it as an executable and executing it on a clean PC, I can select the com port, I can see the graph working, and when I start logging, I can select a new filename.
However after closing the file, and opening it in a text editor, there is nothing in the file. So I think there is a problem with the "write to file" vi.
I tried this both in LV 8.5 as well as 7.1 with the same results. Any ideas? I have Visa and Run-time running on the clean PC. Are there any other drivers that I need to run on the host PC?

You have a lot of problems with your VI:
Lousy architecture. You have 4 loops. That's 3 too many. You only need one loop. The code that does the data logging should be in the main (and only) loop.
Do not open and close VISA sessions every time you iterate. Open once. Close once.
Do not open and close files every time you iterate. Open once. Close once.
You do not need to write to an indicator and to a local variable at the same time. A local variable is not a separate entity from a control/indicator - it's the same thing. Thus, the write of the local variable is superfluous. Besides, if you were to correctly code this to use only one loop you wouldn't need the local variable in the first place.
Why are you creating dynamic data from a set of 4 floating point values? Use Build Array to create an array. Charts and graphs do not require you to use dynamic data.
Identical labels. You have four controls called "Current Temp °C". If I mentioned the "Current Temp °C" control, would you know which one I'm talking about? Make your labels distinct. Use captions if you want the text on the front panel to say the same thing.
I don't know if that serial stuff is a by-product of you opening an old VI in 8.5, so I don't know what that SetSerialTermChar VI is supposed to be. You should look at the serial port examples that ship with LabVIEW for updated VIs.
That's it for now....

Alarm & Event Query To Spreadsheet File VI doesn't work correctly (DSC 7.1)

I am using the Alarm & Event Query To Spreadsheet File VI to write alarms/events to an Excel spreadsheet. However there are two things it does wrong:
1. Global variables in the header are not correctly inserted. I am using the header "{creationDate}{delimiter}{creationTime}" but none of the variables are translated to their actual values. The same header in Write Traces To Spreadsheet VI works correctly, so I assume it is only the Alarm & Event Query To Spreadsheet File VI that isn't working.
2. My display format is set to display the date of the alarms but it never appears. Set time/ACK time, etc all appear, just not the date.
Can anyone explain what might be wrong?

Hi AndrewWilliams,
I have been looking into this problem for you and I can't quite figure out exactly what it is you are trying to do. Could you possibly send me your VI's (for the Alarm & Event Query To Spreadsheet File VI and for the Write Traces To Spreadsheet VI) so I can get a better idea of it.
Have you looked at the Export Alarms to File VI in the LabVIEW examples that are installed with the DSC module. This is a very good VI and it might help you to see any faults in your code.
Hope this helps, I look forward to speaking to you soon.

Opening files with Illustrator and photoshop doesn't work, i have to drag the files from finder in to the program. This problem appears after opening 4 a 5 files.

Opening files with Illustrator and photoshop doesn't work, i have to drag the files from finder in to the program.
This problem appears after opening 4 a 5 files, rebooting helps another 4 a 5 times and appears again.

I'd recommend reposting in the Boot Camp forum, that is where the Boot Camp and Windows gurus hang out.
Good luck.

I keep getting the message: "what should firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

cor-el,
Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

ITunes 10.4 full screen with Win7-64bit doesn't work correctly.

iTunes 10.4 full screen with Win7-64 doesn't work correctly. I have the Windows taskbar on the left side of my screen. Maximized iTunes is panned to the left.

Same issue here. When the Windows taskbar is position on the top of the screen and then the iTunes windows is maximised, it's position is as if the Windows taskbar is at the bottom of the screen so the top of the iTunes window sits under the taskbar.
For those wanting a workaround, hold shift and right click the iTunes icon in the taskbar/quick launch bar and click restore, at least then you can adjust it to be full screen manually.

AddChild doesn't work correctly in 11.9

comparing the two releases listed below, somehow my Flash program doesn't work correctly on the latest version anymore, nothing was changed in my program but after upgrading to the latest Flash Player, it doesn't work properly anymore, specifically, the items I add through the addChild method doesn't appear properly, was there any changes in between these versions that could have affected the addChild behavior? I'm testing with Windows 7 IE debug version and I see no script errors

(Released 9/24/2013) Flash Player 11.8.800.175 (Win IE only) (50 MB)

[Flex mobile] Open file with a Filebrowser

Hi everyone,
i want to be able to open files with a file browser in my app, but the browse dialog which is opened by the File.browse() method only displays / opens music or image files. Furthermore im not even able to change the Dialog header when running my project on android:
dir.browseForOpen("Please select a file");
this doesn't work on android, neither does the next code-block:...
var dir:File=new File(File.userDirectory.url+ "/geoforms");
var filter:FileFilter=new FileFilter("Documents","*.txt");
dir.browseForOpen("Please select a file",[filter]);
So what do i have to do, to be able to show a decent file select dialog ?

Nobody any idea?
i tried it like its described in this article:
Declaring file type associations
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=File_formats_1.html
but i can't get it running for my mobile project. The type associations works fine in my desktop air application but it doesn't work in my mobile app. Is this type associations stuff supposed to be working on mobile devices / android?

Opening files with .asp extension

Since few weeks I am not able to open files with .asp extension.
There was no problem over a long time, maybe the issue started with the actualization of OS X, moving to OS X 10.6.5 or with the actualization of Safari, moving to 5.0.3.
Please let me know what I can do to re-open .asp files.
Thanks

Hallo Everybody, I have a similar issue.
I run a Macbook Pro, and I operate into an internet based ERP system (managed by microsoft machines)
In this system, which completely works through internet, I can create orders, invoices, then I tap "create invoice" and get a pdf file.
Till few weeks ago it worked smoothly: I tapped "create invoice", the system worked and few seconds later adobe reader opened showing me the file from a .asp document. Now it doesn't work anymore.
If I tap "create invoice", adobe reader doesn't do anything, but the .asp file is created into the "download" folder with the name "print preview", so I have to go into that folder and manually open the file.
This leads in a waste of time and some confusion if I issue many documents at a time, which I find all mixes up with names "print preview 1" - 2 - 3...
Does anybody have a clue on how I can open the .asp files into adobe reader automatically as they are created?
Thank you in advance

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path using any of these perfectly normal methods:
1. double-click file in the Finder (e.g in a Folder on your Mac or on your Mac desktop etc.)
2. select file and choose "File... Open" command-o in the Finder
3. drag file to the application icon in the Finder.
4. Select file in Bridge and double-click, choose File.. Open.. or Drag icon to InDesign icon in dock.
If you try to open an ID file named with a "#", you will get an error message "Missing required parameter 'from' for event 'open.'"
This happens to any InDesign file that has a "#" (pound sign, number sign, or hash) in the filename or in the file path (any parent folder).
To reproduce
Name an InDesign file Test#.idd Try to open it in the Finder or Bridge (as opposed to the "Open" dilaog of InDeisng itself).
"Solution"
The file WILL open using File... Open... command-o while in InDesign application.
Rename the file or folders that have a "#" (shift-3) in the filename.
Report to Adobe if it bugs you.
This does not occur in "plain" Leopard 10.5 nor Tiger 10.4
Untested in Panther or before and
Untested with CS3 and earlier in Snow Leaopard.
Anyone have those and want to try this... ?

In case this really bothers you: we've added a workaround for this into Soxy. If you enable the option, these documents will open fine on double-click.
You need Soxy 1.0.7 from:
http://www.rorohiko.com/soxy
Go to the 'Soxy' - 'Preferences' - 'Other' dialog window, and enable 'Open InDesign via Script'
(Irrelevant background info (it's all invisible to the user): the workaround works by special-casing how Soxy opens documents in InDesign: instead of using AppleScript, Soxy will use ExtendScript to instruct InDesign to open the document - which works fine).
