Opening docx and winmail.dat in Pages

I have a new MacBook Pro. Pages '09 4.3 and OSX 10.9.2.
If someone emails a .docx or a win.dat document, I cannot open them.
I have tried the .zip option but it doesn't work.
Can anyone help? Thanks.

Well, Pages is not a Word clone, so there may be some content within that .docx that Pages cannot digest, as it is suggesting by the pop-up you received.
I suggest you download LibreOffice and let it open that .docx that Pages cannot. LibreOffice is self-contained, and only installs into two locations. Its fonts are contained in the application bundle.
/Applications/LibreOffice.app
login account/Library/Application Support/LibreOffice
If anything other than MS Word can open that .docx, it will be LibreOffice.

Most attachments from a specific address (work) can not be opened, identified as winmail.data and no data available. Not sure if this is based on the e-mail coming from a windows based system, too old of a windows based system or simply how i have it set on my Mac.

Winmail.data are not usable files. They just preserve RTF within the message.

Problem with item and/or data during page-processing-PS/SQL

Greetings!
On my page I have a custom report (from 2 tables) and a small form-field, that adds and edits data in the report. After generating the form with the wizard I added an extra item, to store the id from one of the tables from the report data.
Now, on submit a calculation should take place, that updates data according user input with a procedure in Page-Prosseses:
declare a number;
begin
case :PLATZ
when 1 then a:=100;
when 2 then a:= 50;
else a:=25;
end case;
update TBL_MITGLIEDER set TURNIERPUNKTE = TURNIERPUNKTE + a
where ID_MITGL = :P14_ID_MITGL;
end;
:PLATZ is user selected (1,2,3), :P14_ID_MITGL stores the reference to TBL_MITGLIEDER (and shows the change, when I select another record)
As I understand, that process should also run, when I submit a chance, but nothing happens then.
But when I try to save a new record (which worked without any problems before adding that process), I get this error message:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 64: PL/SQL: ORA-00957: duplicate column name ORA-06550: line 1, column 7: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
Error Unable to process row of table TBL_TURNIERSIEGER.
Then, when I go back into the app-builder and try to run the page again, I get this message:
ORA-01403: no data found
Error Unable to fetch row.
I am not sure, if you guys have all the information you need, to know whats going on. Maybe this has to do with session-id and the whay, items are updated. I hope you can help me.
Thanks, best regards,
tobi

First can you please post all log file errors
>> I can't really give you a solution or specific recommendation since I did not saw this error yet myself, but on your own risk you can try:
1. You may try to just register 'dts.dll' using regsvr32.exe, but this error may indicate a bigger problem with setup.
If you are running SQL Server 64bit then try running this at the command prompt: %windir%\syswow64\regsvr32 "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\dts\binn\dts.dll"
2. You can try reinstall from start (In this case you have to make sure that you un-install all)

Yes, but there at least you are talking to people who all use the app, while in this forum (which is for hardware and not software in any case, so already off the mark, since the problem has nothing to do with hardware), it is probably a minority.

How To Automatically Open docx and xlsx files in Safari

I am been doing some searching but don't seem to be able to find an answer to what must be a very simple setting I am missing somewhere.
We have an intranet site with links to a number of docx and xlsx files, I need to tell Safari to automatically open those files rather than simply placing them in the download folder. The only information I could find mentioned creating a file called "com.apple.DownloadAssessment.plist", I found an example of that file that was supposed to do what I am looking for but as far as I can tell the version of Safari I am running (5.1.9) is ignoring this file (placed in my user's preference folder in the Library).
It is frustrating to not be able to figure this out, typically I have no problem finding very basic settings such as these but this has me lost. In Firefox it is trivial and it must be in Safari too. Can anyone help tell me what I need to do so that Safari will automatically open newer MS Office files?
Thanks in advance.

Cannot open .docx and .xlsx files directly from thunderbird

You alredy answerd this question, but it didn't solve my problem completly. You send me this:
"Is it set up here: Tools > Options > Attachments Under 'Content Type' Microsoft Office Excel 2010 workbook Action: Use microsoft Office excel' Note you can click on the action to see a drop down selection if you need to change it. then click on OK
If it is not there then you need to set it up.
right click on attachment and choose 'open' a window pops up asking what to do. choose 'Open with' and either 'Microsoft Open XML converter' (I have MS Office 2007 so can to use that option) or better still select 'Microsoft Office Excel'
If the option is not available click on 'Other' See if option is now available or click on 'Browse' and in Microsoft Office, locate the Excel.exe file (it might be in a folder called 'Office 12 or another number) and click on 'Open' select: 'Do this automatically for files like this from now on' and click on OK"
But it is not working. When I do this, it works just for one file type.
Example: when i do this for .docx, select microsoft office word 2010 to open it, it works fine, but when trying to open .xlsx it opens also in word. It does not offer open with or other choises, just runs word and displays error that it cannot read it.

Excel, file association is ok. Even tried with Incredimail free. everything works ok there, butt I like Thunderbird better so I would like to solve this problem. The weirdest thing is that this problem is on a laptop which I installed from a disk immage. It is one of five exactly the same laptops, and all installed from same immage, and only this one has a problem with it,other 4 are ok.
Let me give you a little more info:
Laptop is Acer Aspire E1-522
OS is win 7 pro
Office 2010 pro
Installation of all suplemental programs and Thunderbird I installed from ninite.com
I've tried everything you listed. Even tried to swich disks between 2 laptops, to rule out any hardware problem of some sort.
As I mentioned before I tried installing Incredimail free just for the test, everything works in it. File association is ok every file is opened with its program when on desktop or other place.
Why is this a problem with those files I dont know. Other files .xls and .doc and .pdf work just fine. If there was an option to manually add file extentions in Tools > Options > Attachments it would solve the problem. I'm all out of options. If you can think of something let me now.
Thanks for all your help and your time.
Sorry on grammar mistakes ect... english is not my native language.

Problems to open DOCX and XLSX

Hi ,
We have a BBPCRM 4.0 patch 6 , Abap 620 patch 39 and Basis 620 patch 39 .
When we open documents type DOCX and XLSX from the ITS and internet explorer 7 , the system doesnt open this documents .
We have put the mimetype DOCX in view SDOKMIME_C with the next entry:
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
Can you help us ?
Have this problem happen to anybody ?

Hello ,
Sap have told us in an incident that there is not a system EBP that works with the new extension of office 2007 (DOCX,XLSX..) , when we acces via http (http://machine:8080..)
I understand your need to maintain the new extensions for Office 2007
and I regret to inform you that this is not possible for the
current standard. I've already forwarded this issue to the responsible
colleagues in our development department and they will analyse how
this change could be implemented in future releases. So SAP Document
Management will include a larger field for the file extension in
future releases. But unfortunatly I cannot offer you a solution for
the currently released version.
There is anybody that have an EBP and works with this extensions?

Cannot open mime attachments (winmail.dat) on my iPhone 4.0 ? Please Help!

I am a Doctor by profession and I need to access my email & its attachments asap and on the go, because they contain vital info like patient charts, flight details, work appointments etc.
I have just bought my iPhone 4.0, but I didn't know that the first hurdle I'll face would be that I cannot access this simple mime attachment!
I sidelined the Blackberry for an iPhone and now I'm ruing my decision. Can anyone please suggest a method for me to access this winmail.dat attachment.
Please HELP!

RIM addresses this with their dedicated email delivery service for the Blackberry. Completely different from the iPhone's Mail app, all email with a Blackberry goes through RIM's dedicated email delivery service. The iPhone's Mail app communicates direct with the incoming mail server for an email account - no different from accessing an email account with an email client on your computer.
This is a Microsoft problem, and Apple doesn't include an option to convert RTF or HTML to plain text, which I don't believe would make any difference if this were an option with the iPhone's Mail app since I believe this isn't done direct with the Blackberry - this is done at the server with RIM's dedicated email delivery service for the Blackberry.

Open docx and xlsx on url:s with safari on iPad.

hi,
I can open these files when they are attached in a e-mail. If I get an e-mail with a url to the same file, Safari can not open it. With old office format, xls and doc it is working, but not with the new format, xlsx and pptx for example. If I install an app who can open these files I can tap the file and choose open with and open it with the installed app. If i get an e-mail with url which is pointing to an pdf there is no problem.
My question is, is there a way to get Safari to open the files office files?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance:-)

How to reference application version number and current date in page footer

Am new to Apex and am creating first app for production users on Apex 4.0.1 ... I notice that Application Builder app itself displays the version number at bottom right of screen .. are there any substitution strings that I can use to get current date and application version in my own Apex app ... or do I need to create e.g Javascript to format the date and create my own substitution string ?
Any help much appreciated .. thanks !

I modified the Footer of our Default page template. Used JavaScript for the date, below is the code we use. The very last table is specific to our environment and it would need to be customized for your use or removed if not needed. I am a JavaScript novice so this may be crude but it does the job.

I have seen potential solutions at the following links, suggesting potential invalid reserved characters (such as &) in the mappings previous uploaded. We will look at trying to remove these rows via a SQL script, however we do not have any visibility at this stage and will require assistance from the DBA's.
Error @ Deleting the existing FDM Account mappings.
FDQM Mapping error
Can anyone please suggest which tables we need to be looking at/guiding the DBA's too? Or even better, can anyone please provide a script? Or could this be a red herring, since the FDM login page is not even loading?

Thanks for your response. Yes the exact same solution has worked for us too. FDM crashed last night, which was apparently caused by the flash recovery drive becoming full. This caused the Oracle RDBMS to freeze. After this was re-sized, we then had to restart the Hyperion services this morning. Everything then appeared to be fine, until the above errors occurred. A full reboot has since resolved the FDM issue, but we suspect an IIS restart might have been the answer.
If the same issue occurs again I will update this thread with more info!

How can I detect Form Open event and Import data event ?

We are using Adobe Designer 7 and Adobe Reader 7.0.5. When we open a Form, Initialize event is being called. Similarly when we Import any data, initialize event is being called. At the Initialize event, I want to know whether it is caused by Opening the Form (or) Importing the data. Please respond as we were completely stuck up with this issue.

My screenshot was only an example how you can approach the issue. I wasnt saying that you should try it with AI....
Just take a closer look into the DAQmx Events and you will discover something like this:

Opening Numbers and getting the same page size and location each time

Can someone help me with something which is pretty basic, please?
When I open a Numbers spreadsheet which I use frequently, each time it opens as a tiny box and always has to be resized and repositioned onscreen before I can start work.
I figure there must be something I can do to have it open in the same screen position and the same size each time, but what?

Hi Norman,
Your tags show OS X Mavericks 10.9. The latest version of Mavericks is 10.9.2
Are using Numbers 3.0 ? The lates version of Numbers is 3.1 and it does save the zoom.
Maybe this will help, but it does not work in Numbers 3.0
Numbers > Preferences > General > Default Zoom > 100% (or whatever % you want).
And Save your document before closing to retain the zoom and position.
The Numbers *window* size can not (yet) be saved, but the zoom and the position within a sheet can be saved in Numbers 3.1
Regards,
Ian.

HOW TO GET T2 TO OPEN DOCX AND XLSX FILES

MUY T2 WILL NOT OPEN ANY OF THESE FILES, HOW CAN I OVERCOME THIS ?
Post relates to: Tungsten T2

Please do not use ALL CAPS when asking a question! It's considered SHOUTING, and not necessary. Thanks!
To read those type of files, you'll have to purchase and upgrade to Docs To Go version 11 - however I don't see the T2 listed in the supported devices. This may be an error on their end, so check the specifications carefully to be sure it will run!
http://www.dataviz.com/products/documentstogo/premium/dxtg_techspecs.html?device_id=67
If you're the creator of the files, you can also just save them to an older .doc format and use the version of DTG that came with the device!
