Open Mount Fuji or Open Old Faithful

Occasionally when I hover on a spot in Safari 5.0.5 , a small text box opens up. Its light yellow in background and has black letters that say: "Open Mount Fuji". Sometimes the same thing happens, only it says: "Open Old Faithful". The type is about 6 points and the message box is only large enough to hold the phrase. It hovers open for about 3/4 of second and fades away. It happened just now while I was setting up this message.
What Gives?

Thank you CT. I restarted, plus "Reset Safari" from underneath of the SAFARI pull-down menu. No further sign of those pesky varmints. I don't know what "tool tips" are - so I looked around a while.
It seems they are not so popular, but if anybody else come behind us on this thread, this link from a Mac users and tips magazine helps explain the darn things.
THANKS FOR THE HELP!!!

Can't open old PDF's

We recently got new updated computers but we kept some of our old files. I downloaded the adobe reader x and everything, I still can't open old PDF's (saved and unsaved ones like from my email). Something with Microsoft Word comes up, and all funny writing and numbers and such! The only way I can view an old PDF's is I save them again, go to the Adobe Reader X icon on my desktop, and open the file(s) from there. It's quite a hassle because sometimes I don't want to save something, or have more than one PDF open! Help please. (I'm pretty much computer "stupid", so it might be just something small!)
If you have any ideas for me, feel free to reply below or email me at [email address deleted by host]
Thank you so much (:

Old Logic + a new Mac = can't open old projects anymore. De/re-install?

Hi everybody,
maybe someone can advise me with this problem:
I bought a new Mac recently, did install a fresh OSX 10.5 and then used migration assistant to transfer my old user account from my old Mac (10.4), incl. all files. It did take a night, but it worked - or so I thought. Actually all applications work as they should, except for Logic. I had to re-authorize a few plug-ins, but then all seemed to be cool. I can open a new project, record audio, midi, add plug-ins, all cool. But I ended up with 3 problems, which are really annoying:
1) EXS24 couldn't find most of the samples anymore. Most, not all. I have 4 internal HDs, one for the system, one for audio recordings, one for samples, one for "other stuff". 2 of these disks came from the old Mac, 2 new ones, content copied from old Mac. In the EXS prefs I set "search for samples" to "all volumes", but it still didn't work perfectly. Finally I bought EXSManager Pro and now it seems to work again. I didn't try ALL samples yet, but the +/- 20 EXS instruments I tried, did load all samples.
2) Space Designer doesn't load impulse responses for the presets anymore. They're there and at the right place. I can load SD and import an existing impulse file, no problem. But the presets don't find the required files anymore.
3) Now - and this is the worst one - I can't open old projects anymore. I just can't. It starts loading, I see the rainbow thing (don't know the right word), it turns black & white and that's it. You can watch this forever and nothing happens.
Regarding all 3 issues:
I don't get any error messages. Logic doesn't crash, I can't click 'apple-.' to stop loading/searching. It just doesn't open the file. I had a coffee, a pizza, I let it try for 2 hrs+, but neither did it load a SD preset or an old song file. All I can do is manually quit Logic.
But when I open Logic with the CTRL-button down and click "no" to core audio I can open all songs. Of course I can not hear a tone then, but it's all there. Opening a song takes 3 secs then. I tried to safe a song then with a different name, re-started Logic with core audio but same result. It get's "stuck".
Of course I checked user permissions and all the usual trouble shooting clicks, but still Logic has a mind of it's own. I installed a 2nd user with admin rights, though still the same, plus all the 3rd party plug-ins refusing to work.
Now I was thinking, should I de-install Logic and re-install from the original CDs maybe. And if so, is there anything special I have to take care of? Like manually removing any prefs or cache files?
Or completely re-install the whole Mac? (pleeease no....)...
If anybody has any idea, it'd be highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance and for the energy to read my little novel here,
cheers,
Joern

Ok, either my question was too long or nobody seems to have an answer. Sad, either way
Here's something I found out in the meantime, maybe this is interesting for somebody or maybe - problem's not totally solved - enough info for any of you to give me further advice.
When I start Logic Core Audio driver de-activated, I can open old songs. Then I save them in a new folder with all audio files and a new name. And I remove all EXS24 instruments as well as the Space Designer. I quit Logic, re-open with Core Audio activated and I can open the song.
Problem no.1: EXS24 instruments don't find the appropriate samples, but EXSMananger Pro did help me with this. Same problem with Space Designer, which doesn't find the impulse responses, connected to a certain preset.
Two questions, every idea would be great!
- Is there any way to teach Space Designer Presets where to look for impulse respones. I can load IR samples directly and create a new preset, but I can't use my old ones.
- Is it possible to install Logic from scratch over an existing version? Or how should I de-install everything connected with Logic and then install a fresh version from CD?
Thank you again,
Joern

What version was the old library made with?
What is the exact message? when it hangs does it crash or do you have to force quit?

Trying to open old logic files.

I have Logic Pro 9.1.6. It works fine. I am trying to open old files and understand I need to save them in Logic 7 first. I have L7 installed on a separate disk with OS10.4.11. When I startup with that disk I can't launch Logic 7 because it does not recognize the usbKey. Any help?
Thanks
Peter Scholes

I just downloaded and ran the XSkeyUpdater which successfully fixed the XsKey so I can now launch Logic 7.

I have a new IMAC with a Maverick platform (I can update to Yosemite). I did all graphics on a G5 Power PC (very old), in Freehand (very old)... How can I open old Freehand files on this new Mac? Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
After this, do an update from the App Store.
Thats all there is to it.
For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

How to open "old" Pages file on Version 5.2?

Can't open old Pages document on Ver 5.2; where is Pages '09?

If you had Pages '09 installed before the first installation of Pages v5, then the former was moved into /Applications/iWork '09 folder. Pages v5 does not support Pages '08, or RTF files, so you will need Pages '09 as an intermediary application. If you don't have Pages '09, or don't know someone who does, then Amazon still offers the iWork '09 application suite on DVD. If you go that route, you will need to apply the Apple iWork 9.3 update after installation.

I can't open orkut's new look in firefox 4.0b5. only open old orkut. why this happen ?

hi I am from india. when i use orkut it's open old look. and my new orkut has been change in firefox. firefox is not supporting new orkut look. so pls help me

If Firefox 4.0 b5 the user agent is simplified to avoid exposing too much private data.<br />
It is possible that that change confuses the server and makes it think that the new version isn't supported.
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:2.0b5) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b5
Compare that to Firefox 3.6.8:

How do I open old tiff files in PS CS5

How do I open old tiff files in PS CS5?

Opening old files in new versions should never be a problem - unless they have originally been saved in other applications that don't follow the file format specifications. Or the files are corrupted.
The other way around can sometimes be tricky because of new features not present in the old version.

Cannot open old appleworks/clarisworks docs

I got a new man mini, my 3.5 year old mac died. I have a lot clarisworks and appleworks docs. I cannot find appleworks or claris works on the new computer. Is is possible the computer does not come with it? If not where do I get it? And will the new program open my old docs? I see in the apple store you can buy iWorks for 80 bucks, is this what I have to do? I thought appleworks came with the old system. Is there a program that came with the computer that will open these docs?

Ok, I got iWorks09. I still cannot open documents created in 2006 with the .cwk appendage that were created in the graphics portion of the old program, I think they are called graphics docs? Anyways I have a lot of files that I created in 2006 or before for our church carnival, tickets, fliers, etc. None of these docs were created with the word processing portion of the old program, I used the graphics portion and they will not open. When I get info on the .cwk file I want to open and it says its a text doc. I know they are not text docs but this is what the computer recognizes. Am I screwed? Will I ever be able to open these files? I am able to open old .cwk files that are word processing only, no graphics

Can't open old indesign docs

Hi
I installed 2014 release and now can only open old indesign files in the old version not the new one. What do I need to do to be able to open them in the new version?
Thanks in advance

The tef file is an iCloud file.
Maybe turn it off for a while and do something else before restarting it to give it time to reset.

Need PCD filter or converter to open old photo disc files

Is there a filter or file converter to open old files from photo CD's
Some files are PCD format and some files are PCT/Quickdraw
The PCD files can be converted with Apple Store's Best Image Converter XV but the resolutions seem low.
The QuickDraw (Some kind of Pict?) image can be opened in Preview but only exported as a pdf which in turn needs another conversion to jpg or tif.
Photoshop seems to have dropped support for both these formats.
Unfortunately I have a few hundred of these files.

Which version of mac os x are you using?
Which version of photoshop do you have?
The mac version of Photoshop cc 2014 stills opens a pict file i transferred over from mac os 9
iphoto should be able to import the pcds off the photo cd
If you don't have the original kodak photo cd, then you could use
pcdmagic
https://sites.google.com/site/pcdmagicsite/
or
Graphic Converter 9, which should handle both pcd and pict

Also, Photoline handles both pcd and pict files

I keep getting the message that I need to download the images update to open old documents. The update was downloaded on 11/24/13. Checking for new updates shows all updates have been made. What is the issue?

I keep getting the message that I need to download the new update for ipages when opening old documents. The latest update that I have download was done 11/24/13. When I check for updates it shows that there are no new updates available. I downloaded Maverick a few weeks back on to my iMac. What is the issue

You have both your older iWork apps and the newer Maverick apps on your computer.
The new Maverick apps are in the Applications folder.
The older iWork apps are in the Applications/iWork folder.
Of the two, the older iWork apps are more useful so don't throw them out.
Check out about Pages 5, keeping the older Apps and how to manage updates here:

Opening old Premiere 6.1 ppj files in Pro CS5.5?

I have just run across some CD-ROMs with backups of some OLD Premiere 6.1 .ppj files on them (including the source file videos too). When I stuck it into my cd-rom just now, the .ppj files showed up as "Premiere Pro" file types. I tried to open them but after Premiere opened, it said there was an error with each file. However, this makes me wonder if I could open old .ppj files at all with Premiere Pro CS 5.5? I think I have an old hard drive stashed in the cabinet which would have EVERYTHING associated with the project on it. I'd love to be able to recover it and recreate my video in full standard definition. (Back in 2001 when I did these, my computer would choke just to squeeze out a 640x480 version without hiccups!)
Any idea if this is even possible? What steps should I take? I don't want to spend a lot of time trying this out if it's already known not to work.
Thanks!!

Ann,
I have successfully Opened Pr 6.5 (Mac) Project files in PrPro 2.0 (PC), with but a few tiny glitches. In the case of those Projects, there were a few Transitions, that did not exist in my PrPro 2.0 copy, and one Effect (forget what that was now), but PrPro was kind enough to warn me, with each one, and even gave me the TimeCode, where those appeared, plus what the original name was, for the Transitions, and Effect. I would guess (have not specifically tried it) that your suggestion would work just as well. All I had to do was add the .PPJ file extension to the Mac Pr 6.5 Project files, and Open worked well.
If that does not work for the OP, then I would attempt to Import the Pr 6.1 .PPJ files into a matching PrPro Project.
In my case, the platform was different for the original Pr Projects, but that did not cause an issue (except as noted above), on my PC.
As the OP mentions the .PPJ file extension, it would seem that there is no issue with Mac vs PC, but my assumption could be incorrect.
