Opening a GB 3 FILE IN GB 2

Anybody know how to open a GB3 created file in GB2. I get an error message telling me to upgrade. This seems very "un-mac" to me.

Most programs at least let you
"save as" an earlier version of their software
I'm not sure that this is true (the "most" part). I recall opening iMovie files in upgrades and getting a warning that if I opened it with the new version it would no longer be compatible with earlier version. I think I remember a similar warning wrt to iPhoto. GB1 could not open GB2 files, and GB2 can not open GB3 files.
This is not to say that I disagree with your feature desire, I think a Save As (GB 2 compatible) Version would be a nice addition to see, however I think GB would then be the exception rather than the rule.
Do use GB's Feedback menuItem to let Apple know, it can't hurt. --Hang

Pages 08 won't open my old pages file

I just upgraded to Pages 08 and when I try to open the file I was working on yesterday, with the previous version of pages, it says "The document...couldn't be opened". How can I open the old pages file with the new version?

It may be useful to trash the preferences file:
<bootVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist
But I'm afraid that the document is corrupted.
Control click its icon then select the "Show package's contents" in the contextual menu.
The standard contents is:
Contents
QuickLook
index.xml.gz
The described message is displayed when there is no "index.xml.gz" (or "index.xml") file.
It is also displayed when the "index.xml.gz" (or "index.xml") is badly formed.
The index may be dropped when the documents where stored on an iDisk.

Please suggest me. Thank you in advance!.

Hi Adrian,
Why don't you try any another software for opening CSV files then Notepad ? According to my experience, you can use these softwares to open an CSV files and they are:-
Microsoft Excel
Open Office Calc
Google Docs
Also there is an additional tool available known as CSV viewer. You may try this, download it from here http://www.csvviewer.com/
I've never used Notepad for opening CSV files, because sometimes it contains some symbols which are not not at all compatibile with Notepad.

I'm trying to copy music from my PC to itunes. I open itunes, go to 'file', go to 'add folder to library', select the folder and nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

Hello there, gleab.
The following Knowledge Base article reviews the ways to import content into iTunes:
Adding music and other content to iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1473
Also keep in mind which formats can be added:
You can add audio files that are in AAC, MP3, WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless, or Audible.com (.aa) format. If you have unprotected WMA content, iTunes for Windows can convert these files to one of these formats.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

Finder won´t work. It doesn´t open any of my files, and when I try to force quit, it flahses, so i can´t click it. Help!!

I have a Macbook Pro. I´ve just installed Lion version 10.7.3.
Basically, one day I turned on my computer, and all my desktop folders and pictures were missing. And the finder just kept flashing with screen that said "finder quit while trying to restore all it´s windows" And you had the option between clicking To re-open the windows or not. Thing is, doesn´t matter what you clicked, because the thing kept flashing, so you couldn´t click it.
I ended up using the "killall finder" Code in terminal to close it.
But when that ended, turns out i can´t accsess any of my files. I can search them in spotlight, and if they are images, i can see them, but I´m uncapable of using my folders because they won´t open. Also, if you click the "Finder" app, it just opens the "All my files" Tab, for a split second before closing. I can´t force quit it, because when i open the force quit tab, the finder keeps flashing, so I can´t click it. Finder is killing me.

If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

Error: "We're having a problem opening this location on file explorer. Add this website to your trusted sites list and try again"

Hello,
When i try to open document library from SharePoint Production portal then it throws the specified error. However, when i open document library from SharePoint Development portal then it opens it in file explorer quite easily.
Production portal is on https whereas development portal is on http. Also, UAG has been configured on production portal.
Any idea where it's getting stuck up? Surely, this is not a browser issue on Windows 7 as it's opening the development portal's document library on the same machine.
I've also done following things:
- Configured Desktop Experience on production environment
- Installed the hotfix for Windows 7

Hello Sohaib.
Here is the list of causes defined here.Hope it helps you
The cause and the resolution methods are the following:
Cause: There is a missing Root site collection...
Resolution: Check and ensure, that the “Managed Paths” are not changed in the web Application’s page, there is a (root) explicit for
this web application and there is a working Root site collection.
If for any reason this is not the case in your environment, you may try the following:
- Apply (if not already) the following Hotfix to one of those clients:
Error when you open a SharePoint Document Library in Windows Explorer or map a network drive to the library after you install Internet Explorer 10 in Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2846960
Then, try to delete the cache of the IE browser before reproducing the issue. Check the result..
- Try to temporarily disable the Antivirus and test again.
- Check if you have installed the Desktop Experience feature on the SPS13 server.
- Check if you face this behavior with all users, Or only with some specific ones, Or with all different client OSes..
Otherwise you will need to collect the logs to further analyze...

I can't open or view RAW files?

I have two Macs. One is an iMac and one is a Macbook. I usually always use my iMac for photo processing and storage. And I use an external hard drive to store all my photos.
Now I recently had to take my macbook with me because I was going out of town and could not transport my iMac. But I was missing a lot of updated things on my macbook, such as my preferences and settings, apps, files, etc, since I rarely use it... and I wanted to transfer all that to my Macbook without the use of tedious uploading and formatting. So I reformatted my macbook by backing it up onto an external drive, erasing the disk, and then migrating my data from my iMac to my macbook. Everything seemed just fine with all my latest settings and files where they should be... until I opened a folder or Bridge and could not view or open any RAW files.
It said I did not have enough access privileges. I am the admin of both my computers, but I do have other accounts for my mom and 2 others for whatever reason (they have never interfered before). I rarely use those accounts and they are NOT admins. But it said that only my mom's account had the privileges to read and write the files on my external hard drive (which has all my photos.) I logged into her account, and sure enough, I could view and open all the RAW files. I can view and open jpegs on my account now, but not any RAW files.
I tried going to "get info" on the external drive, and it said that everyone could read and write. But when I went to individual folders and files, it said only my mom could read and write. And even when changing the permissions so that everyone could, it still didn't work.
I also have the latest software updates... I have tried doing disk utility. And right now it's still going, saying it has 8 hours left, and so far there are hundreds of thousands of problems. It never was like this until just today.
I really need to get this problem solved. I have work to do and without being able to even see my RAW files, yet alone edit them, makes it really hard. I also want to avoid creating a new account because my account now has all my personal stuff... from all my music on my iTunes, to my actions, to my settings, applications, etc. And it would be very hard to redo all of that. So it would be great if I could somehow fix my user privileges.
Does anyone know what to do? I'd appreciate any help from you!

I have Windows 98 and need Acrobat to open up the pdf files for 5.0

I have the old system, Windows 98 and presently have the free Adobe 5.0 version on my Compaq Presario Computer, and it is a 5242 model desktop.
I have inadvertanly switched over to Compaq Carbon Copy 32 Version 5.0 but since, have uninstalled it and now, on each of what was the pdf files initially of which I have, of which is at least 16 or more, on each of those files, an error message comes up and says "PROGRAM NOT FOUND," and states the following: "Windows cannot find CCW32EXE. This program is needed for opening the pdf files." And then it has a dialogue box with the computer operational symbol in it as C:\ and then it wants me to locate it. I cannot locate it through the "auto" because, this sytem being so old, doesn't have a magnifying glass or a "search" tool to do this in the "My Computer Icon on the Desktop as the Compaq people wanted me to do. I would have to do this manually. I have already talked to the Compaq people on their chat line and because of this, they said they couldn't help me with this problem and referred me over to you.
I've tried to find a download for 5.0, though I really don't think I need one since it is currently installed. I believe the proper way to fix this is to just convert the CCW32EXE over to the Acrobat pdf files and have those files opened and should open up all of my 15 or so files altogether at the same time because they all converted over to something else at the same time prior.
Are you able to help me?
But I believe to alleviate this problem, if you could just give me the information to be able to open up the pdf files to 5.0 and find out what download I may pursue, it might be able to correct this problem. I already have the 5.0 Acrobat installed, however.

Hi Aandi,
I have followed your directions and I have the old system of Windows 98, so I had to go to "programs" and come up to Acrobat 5.0 and once in there, all of the Window there is greyed out, although I can still go to the tool bars above in it. I went to "file" and went to "open" and from there, I received an "open" window with a dialogue box in it and in that dialogue box as I scrolled down, it wants me to put in there, one of the following, "desktop," "my documents," "3 1/2 floppy [A:]," "[C:]," "system _save [D:]," ""[E:," "[F:]," ete; of these which do I pick in the "open" dialogue box? and down at the bottom, is the FILE NAME and what do I put in there? Just below that, it has the FILES OF TYPE which has there Adobe pdf Files, in it's dialogue box. I hit these, but I still get an error message of which basically says, "NOT FOUND, please put in proper file name given." And I don't know actually where it is given.
So, as you see, I am a novice in all of this and you can contact me at my e mail address which is [email protected]
and should a reply be needed, I'll come back to the forum for a reply.
I really need to open up the Adobe 5.0 pdf files. All of the pdf files, simultaneously went over to Compaq Carbon Copy 32 of which I since, uninstalled. But I really need to get back and open the Adobe 5.0 pdf files.
And I want to thank you for your support and eagerly awaiting your help.
Thanks,

How to open and read binary files?

How do I open and read Binary files?

Did you look on The Unarchiver's web site where it has a link to older versions? http://theunarchiver.googlecode.com/files/TheUnarchiver3.2_legacy.zip
The best thing to do is ask your friends what programs they used to produce these files, or at least what format files they are producing. Otherwise it's like being shown a car and given a bundle of 200 keys with no idea to which one to use, or even if any of them work with that car.
Using The Unarchiver will likely not do anything because it too will not know what format files are involved, and they may not even been in an archived format. If they sent you a Word file without telling you (a favorite of Windows users to do -- it drives me crazy when they could have just sent them in plain text), The Unarchiver won't open them. If it's a picture file then using Hexedit will just show you a bunch of unintelligible stuff as shown in an earlier post, though you may see a line of text providing a hint.
As I said earlier, often .bin may be an executable program which needs another program to actually interpret it. That's what Java is trying to do. Still, it may think it can execute the file, but it is highly unlikely somebody would send you an executable program (and if they did I would not trust it). For all you know it may be a Windows virus.

Hello all.   Hope someone can help me. I recently downloaded some updates for my imac. Since doing this the computer starts up but I get no logon box. The home screen opens but I can't open any programs or files. I've tried rebooting, no joy. Help!!

Hello all..   I hope someone here can help. I recently downloaded some updates to my imac. Since then the computer starts but I get the home screen opening without the logon box.    I can't open any programs or files and if I click on the Safari tab it disappears from the dock. I've tried rebooting with no joy.
I contacted technical help at Apple and was told to hold down the ctrl and alt keys with two other keys, I think the S or P keys when powering up. This worked
and the computer seemed fine but now the problem has reappeared. Is there a way to removed downloaded updates from the computer or revert it to an earlier state?   Sorry for the long question. Hopefully one of you clever people can help.   Simon

Pages v4.0 (727) can't open or save .doc files

Hello everyone,
for a while now I haven't been able to open or save .doc files with Pages. When trying to open a .doc file I get the following message:
"The document "example.doc” couldn’t be opened."
I have tried the following to solve the problem:
1. run Software Update, which told me there were no updates available
2. checked my applications folder to see if Pages was in the iWork '09 folder in order for SU to be able to detect updates (it was)
3. reinstalled Pages from the iWork disc and run SU (which again couldn't detect any updates)
4. deleted the com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist file from the Preferences folder in the user library on the Macintosh HD
I'd be very grateful if someone could point me towards a solution, I've spent an age on google looking for one and haven't found anything useful so far.
Thanks in advance

Are you still on MacOs 10.6.1? You should update it to 10.6.8. Use the Combo update here if the Software Update check doesn't work (which it should) http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
And here you can find the iWork 09 updates. Software Updates should find them!
iWork 9.0.4
iLife Support 9.0.4
You need both.

Hello Mats in Sweden!
I'm from Austria, not so far away! The file that you've received seems to be a Windows Media File and you may need a special software for your iPad to be able to open it. I've found something HERE.
If you open this link on your iPad it should take you to the App Store, resp. open it. The price for this app is 1,59 €.

HT202879 I am stumped - trying to open a recent Pages file but error message says that I need a "newer version" of Pages. My software updates show that there are no updates available. I recently updated Pages but it is not consistent.

I am stumped - I am trying to open a recent Pages file (created with a newer software that I thought was correctly installed recently) but error message says that I need a "newer version" of Pages. My software updates show that there are no updates available. Pages 09 version 4.3 shows as my current version.

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5/5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.1 sometimes can not open its own files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
Note: Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

THis is safe for Mac's? Sorry, I have just never heard of this site before.
And there are literally tens of thousands of sites of which I've not heard, too. Not this one.
It's legit. There are lots of links in Apple Support Communities to the LibreOffice web site, as well as others that are legitimate open-source developers of options to buying MS Office, such as NeoOffice and OpenOffice. I have Open Office installed on one of my older Macs that can't run Office 2011 and it is rock-solid.
I've been here too long to start posting bogus urls now.
