Open Recent Files are not registering

The "Recent Files" option in either the button upon opening Pages, or option under "File" does not contain any files. I did trash certain plist files because the "Recent Files" was not updating. Any suggestions on how I can get this part of the Application to work? or do I need to reload the Application?
Thank you.

You're right.
As I rarely use 10.6.3, I missed that.
So, the list of preferences to trash when something is behaving wrong with an iWork app is now :
<startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Keynote. plist
<startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Keynote. LSSharedFileList.plist
<startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Numbers. plist
<startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Numbers. LSSharedFileList.plist
<startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Pages.pl ist
<startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Pages.LS SharedFileList.plist
I guess that the one stroring the 'recent documents' descriptors is more prone to corruption that the other one.
When you get an odd behaviour, it would be a good idea to trash the xx.LSSharedFileList.plist file first.
If it's sufficient, you will not loose the other prefs

  • .ocx files are not registered?

    My installer will not load the .ocx files correctly. Sometimes the .ocx files are not registered?I am using Labview 8.2.1 and this problems usually happens with Vista Machines.How can I correct this?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I use the 8.2.1 application build along with the 8.2.1 Labview.The application is Labview and works fine. The files are for a Programming Tool done in Visual Basic.Comdlg32.ocxCwui.ocxMSCOMCTL.ocxRightx32.ocx Riched32.dllThese get installed in the system32 folder, that works, but the Tool can’t access them till they are (regsvr32) this has happened several times on a Vista windows. No problems with XP and not sure if it happens on all vista computers. How can I avoid having the customer (regsvr32)?

  • "Open Recent" files option not working - Yosemite 10.10, Pages 5.5.2

    Ever since I upgraded to Yosemite and Pages 5, "Open Recent" has not been working. Today I set the General System Preferences to open my last 10 documents but it has not made a difference. Please help as this is extremely frustrating when working with multiple recent documents.

  • Webarchive files are not opening- what to do?

    My webarchive files are not opening.  I have a lot saved from previous months of research.  I never had a problem opening them before.  Now all of a sudden I get a page from mywebsearch that simply says "Recently closed."  All of them...even the ones I saved this afternoon.
    Can someone help?

    You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • PDF files are not opening in IE!!!

    Some PDF files are not displayed while opening in browser IE . The PDF files are generated through servlets (JWS 2.1). While analysing the problem we have found that the one request invokes the doget() method of the servelet more than once. This problem is not appearing in netscape.
    Please give suggestions.

    I am having the same sort of problem. I have a form posting to a servlet that displays a pdf based on the vars posted to it. My doPost() calls doGet(). When I post to the the servlet the doPost() is called and then it calls the doGet() and then SOMETHING else calls the doGet() again. Since the vars that I am using to load the pdf are posted they are out of scope for the second doGet(). I tried two things to fix this:
    I changed my doPost() method to do nothing but check the request variables and hold on to them. Then I changed my doGet() to use the values that I held instead of the request vars. This only worked sometimes.
    Then when I rolled all of my code back and changed my form from POST to GET everything worked fine. It seems that there is something that causes the browser to always call the GET when you are using application/pdf. If my doPost() calls my doGet() everything is lost on the second doGet()

  • Since changing our computer I have been unable to download ebooks to my Reader Library I get a message Some file types associated with EPUB files are not associated with Reader Library; Waterstones suggest that I may have accidentally created a new Adobe

    When I try to download them from the Waterstones website I get a message saying:
    ‘Some file types associated with EPUB files are not associated with Reader Library.  Do you want to associate them now?  When I reply yes I get another message; ‘Configuration error unable to update EPUB files check network firewall and try again’.
    The ‘books’ are saved in the Download directory and I can’t transfer them from there to my E-Reader. I have not had any problems before, it was very simple; I saved the download and it automatically went into the Reader Library.
    I contacted HP and they said it is a software error and suggested I contact Waterstones.  I contacted Waterstones Customer Support and got the following response:
    As the error message is specifically mentioning the firewall it does sound like something in the firewall settings is stopping the download from taking place correctly. However, the files should not be being saved to the Download folder. It would be worth trying again by going to your Digital Order History on your Waterstones.com account and pressing the download button, and then making sure to press "Open" not "Save". When you press Open rather than Save it should give the option to open the file with Adobe Digital Editions. If the firewall message still comes up then I'm afraid something is blocking it on your end.
    If the above "Open" download method works but you then still get an error message it could possibly be that you have accidentally created a new Adobe ID when setting up on the new computer, rather than signing in with your old Adobe ID. It would be worth trying the aforementioned download technique again first, but if problems did still persist it would be worth calling Adobe themselves on 0207 365 0735, as they should be able to sort out any account issue.
      In response to the first para of Waterstones email I already do what they suggest I do press ‘Open’ not ‘Save’ but I don’t get the open with Adobe Digital Editions (we have installed Adobe Digital Editions on the new computer. Waterstones say we may have ‘accidentally created a new Adobe ID when setting up the new computer’ does that mean that we shouldn’t have installed Adobe Digital Editions on the new computer as it would have already been there? How do I sign in with my old Adobe ID? 

    Hi all after attampting to get some supoport from adobe by phone.... nice people infurating policys as far as support for digital editions or DRM is conserned... However I got no where with support.
    I ended up instaling Digital editions on my desktop PC and going through the motions of registering and borrowing a book then returning it. Then I trying on my iPad, Bluefire worked, Over drive did not so I completely removed Overdrive and reinstalled and re registered. all working now.
    Maybe some one at adobe did something. Maybe the install of the adobe DE client on a PC corrected what ever was out of wack with my account. Mayby the server that my account lives on did a scan disk and corrected a bad clustrer.
    What ever happend My account is actiove and working again. hope this helps others.

  • Delete files in Open Recent Files list - CS3

    Is it possible to delete single files in the "Open Recent Files" list
    or specify how many recently opened files are be shown?
    I am using CS3 (5.0.3).
    Thanks

    No and no, although Adobe themself doesn't seem to have any problems with this -- every single update kills the list (to my chagrin).
    Can't imagine any bona fide reason you'd want to. It's not like it's meant as sort of kind of Document organizing feature, as if.

  • Anyone any advice on how to stop my mail "activity" from continuously caching? is this a problem? I have had inbox issues recently that are not resolved yet but I am not sure if they are related.

    Anyone any advice on how to stop my mail "activity" from continuously caching? is this a problem? I have had inbox issues recently that are not resolved yet but I am not sure if they are related.

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • Files are not getting updated in sharepoint 2013 because of office upload center error

    Dear Team,
    I am getting upload failed/upload error in Office Upload Center.
    Scenario: I opened excel(version is 2013) file from sharepoint 2013 application and closed and after updating. Later when I opened the file I got error like "UPLOAD FAILED We are sorry this didn't work. Try saving again later and if that still doesn't
    work, click save a copy."
    I found the error is because file is getting upload failed / upload error in microsoft office upload center2013. 
    Please let me know if anyone know the solution for my issues
    Thanks in Advance
    Girish

    Hi Girishkg,
    The default IIS limit for the upload file size is 30MB. If the selected files are larger than 30MB, the files are not uploaded.
    The limit can be set in web application’s web.config file or in IIS .
    There are two detailed articles about setting the limit:

  • Downloaded certain files from my old computer on a memory stick.Have inputted stick into my new mac and can open PDF files but not xlr,aww or eps files.Is there a solution to this please?

    Transferred certain files to my new Mac from my old computer via memory stick.Can open PDF files but not xlr,aww or wps ones.The important ones are in xlr format.Is there a solution please?

    My guess is they don't care. Most likely they're illiterate and don't know what a colon is for. They probably think it's a little-used character. Remember: these are the people who don't know the difference between "deprecate" and "depreciate".
    I have the same colon problem as you do. But it's not the biggest problem I have encountered in Lion. If it was only that I'd be Mr. Delighted with Lion. There's worse than having a colon - uh -  that won't cooperate. A lot worse, in Lion.

  • 'Open Recent' files list

    The 'Open Recent' files list is too short.
    Is there a way to make it longer, e.g. for 25 or 50 files?
    Thanks!

    I'm not sure that it's a good idea but it's your wish so here is the soluce:
    set nbRecents to 30
    do shell script "defaults write com.apple.iWork.Pages NSRecentDocumentsLimit " & nbRecents
    If you want the same behavior in Numbers, use:
    set nbRecents to 30
    do shell script "defaults write com.apple.iWork.Numbers NSRecentDocumentsLimit " & nbRecents
    In fact we may use that for every application with a Recent Items menu.
    I got it in a thread dedicated to the behavior of Script Editor.
