.osx file extension works on MacBook Pro but not Mac Pro

So I have a file that was created, I believe in Macromedia Flash (not certain) but it has a .osx extension on it. It works just fine on my MacBook Pro, but won't work on a Mac Pro. Both have Leopard, both have most of the same software on them... Can anybody offer any help?

jaypie77,
First, you must identify the application that created the file. If it truly was Macromedia Flash, fine. Once you know which app created the file, make certain that the same application exists on the Mac Pro. If it does, set the file to open in that application: Open a Getinfo window for the file, then use the "Open With..." dialogue to choose Macromedia Flash (or the correct application) to open the file.

  • USB Card reader works on MacBook Pro but not Mac Pro

    I have a random "All-in-1" card reader from Quantaray. I'm trying to mount my CF card because it takes forever and a day to import HD video directly from my Canon 5D Mk II.
    It works on my MacBook Pro (Mid 2010). Both computers are running 10.6.8. All I have to do is plug it in and it appears on the desktop on my Macbook. But not on my Mac Pro.
    I've already tried resetting the PRAM and SMC. No dice
    It shows up in the System Profiler under the USB High Speed port as a usb card reader but I can't find it anywhere; not even in Disk Utility.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • Interactive form works in Reader 7 but not in Pro 7 or Standard 7

    I have created and interactive pdf form to send to users. Everyone can open and fill in the form. But people who have Acrobat Pro 7 and Acrobat Standard 7, can fill in the form, but not all the data is saved.
    Any thoughts on what is causing this and how to fix?
    Thanks,
    mdawn

    The binding determines whether the data in the field should be written to the data dom or not. A value of Normal indicates that you want the dta written to the dom and it will follow the hierarchy set in the hierarchy view of Designer. If you set it to None that indicates that you do not want the data written to the dom. You can bind the field to other inbound streams but that is another topic.
    The Data Dom is what is used to store all of the data in the form. It is what is used to make the data structure of the data file that is saved or submitted.
    Does that help?

  • Lion designed for MacBooks and iMacs, not Mac Pros?

    Seems to me that most of the major features of Lion only benefit folks using trackpads, which means mainly MacBook and iMac users. If you're a mouse-user all that built-in swiping and tapping is useless. To some degree, the same is true with Air Drop,great if you're mobile, but not so necessary otherwise. So, since I do 95% of my serious computer work on a Mac Pro, I see no benefit in upgrading to Lion. The only features that seem relevant are some of the lesser touted features like auto-save and maybe Mission Control, although that seems a bit meh to me.
    Anyone care to tell me why I should invest $29 in this alleged upgrade?

    Nostatic1
    I upgraded, had a look and then decided to go back to Snow Leopard. Lion was a bit buggy for a start, but like you I have a Mac Pro, and do a lot of design type work, not as a profession though. Auto save worries me, as I want full control over when I save when designing stuff. To have to go back through lots of saved versions to get to the one I want to keep would seem to me to just be creating more work for me. As I understand it, it only works in apps that are adapted to use it, so my old CS3 would not do it, but that direction worries me if I don't have control over it.
    A lot of the new features can be switched off if you don't like them, which is what I did, so why upgrade? The new iCal and Address Book are horrendous looking too!!! Gaudy is the term that comes to mind. So is the full screen version of Photo Booth. Those types of apps look OK on the iPhone, but look horribly out of place on a Mac, where they have already taken all the colour out of the program window borders to leave a pale grey. I couldn't bear to look at them, and had to replace those bits of the apps with graphics of my own.
    My advice is not to do anything for at least a while. It seems that an awful lot of posts in this forum are people wanting to know how to alter Apple's defaults and to switch things off. I am hoping Apple is watching and taking notice.
    It seems to me that Apple has taken the success of the iPhone and iPad as its inspiration to change the Mac. I have an iPhone and I find the apps like address book that reopen where you closed them a pain. Usually I don't want that same person again, and I have to navigate back to my groups, then out again to get to the right person. It would be much simpler to always start at groups. I cannot imagine doing serious design work with my finger on an iPad. The two should remain separate entities.
    This is the first upgrade that I have reverted from in 18 years as a Mac user, and the first time I am really getting worried that Apple is going off in the wrong direction - and the first time that Steve Jobs is not at the helm. I don't have a good feeling for the future.

  • Some PDF's will print in 7 Pro but not 8 Pro?

    Certain PDF's will print in 7 but not in 8?  Is it connected to 10.5.5 or 10.5.6? or maybe CS4?
    Has anyone else had this problem?

    If it has to do with 8 on X.5.6 and 7 work fine. It more like a Problem with 8.
    7 is older. and would be the most likely to break.
    try the Following:
    Download the lastes driver for your Printer.
    Next go to Printer Utility and delete your Current printer. Then quit Printer Utility
    Next install the Driver.
    Now go back to Printer Utility and choose add Printer. Your newly installed driver should show up.
    Now choose that as default Printer.
    Now open First Acrobat 8 and go to Page setup. Choose the new print Driver and and click on top button to save as default printer for Acrobat.
    Now print something. If Works You've cured problem.
    Close Acrobat 8.
    Repeat with Acrobat 7. Youshould be all set.
    Now while at it. Do the following for PDF Printer:
    Now Repeat  instructions just below Try the following: except this time Delete the Adobe PDFPrinter.
    Now open Acrobat 8 First and go to help and choose repair and reinstall.
    Have Acrobat install version of PDFPrinter for Version 8 only.
    Now you should be able to create PDF's That either application can use only 7 won't use any new features in 8.

    Hi Ozkarleo,
    Please post more information to make your question clear. What’s the type of project you are using? Universal app? Windows phone silverlight app?
    The Sqlite libraries in runtime project are different with those in WinForm. But you have not mentioned what libraries you are using in runtime, so I assume you are using this common ones.
    Sqlite for windows 8.1
    https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/1d04f82f-2fe9-4727-a2f9-a2db127ddc9a.
    Sqlite for windows phone 8.1
    https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/5d97faf6-39e3-4048-a0bc-adde2af75d1b.
    One thing important you need note is that we have no access to the entire file system in runtime app, copy the file to local storage then use it.
    A good sample you can get started with it. Get it form MSDN code gallery.
    https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/Using-SQLite-in-a-Windows-c16aea77 .
    If you cannot make it working, please post more information about your scenario.

  • Using SharePoint Open with File Exployer - works with Windows 7 but not with 8.1

    I am using a SharePoint site. There is an option to open the site in File Explorer [Open in Explorer] that I can use with Windows 7 computers with no problems.  However, when I try to use in Windows 8.1, I receive an error message telling me to add
    the SharePoint site to my trusted sites even though the site is already a trusted site. I can use this SharePoint command on multiple Windows 7 computers with no problems.  I set the Windows 7 computer next to the Windows 8.1 and used the same
    I/E 11 with the same security settings.  Works for 7 and not for 8.1.

    Hi,
    For your issue, try to do the following:
    Click Start > Run->Enter "services.msc" ->Find the WebClient service and select Restart.
    In Internet Explorer go to Tools > Internet Options > Security->Local intranet->make sure the AcitveX control is enabled.

  • Parallels Desktop v3.0 corrupts downloads on Mac Pro but not on MacBook Pro

    Parallels Desktop for Mac version 3.0 is corrupting downloads and updates on my Mac Pro, but not on my MacBook Pro. Symptoms include the message "The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by “Apple” when downloading a software update. Downloading a dmg software package fails at the end of the download with a "Verification failed" message. Trying to mount the package manually fails with codec overrun error. These are symptoms of a corrupted download.
    The problem disappears when I uninstall Parallels. It reappears if I reinstall Parallels. My Mac Pro and MacBook Pro are nearly identical in installed software. I have reviewed the problem with AppleCare in excruciating detail (an hour yesterday and another hour today with an AppleCare Specialist). It is a new issue to them. We have send a support request email to Parallels.com.
    This has been a difficult problem to troubleshoot. I had tried every suggestion that I could find on the forum under "Digital Signature is incorrect", "Verification failed", "codec overrun", etc., without success. I won't go into the painful details of the troubleshooting process, unless encouraged. But I will update the forum when I know more. Meanwhile, if you have any ideas please pass them on.

    The problem has been solved by replacing the Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Router with an Apple AirPort Extreme 802.11n Wireless Base Station. After completing the installation I was able to successfully download my test .dmg files on the both the Mac Pro and the MacBook Pro with Parallels 3.0 installed.
    Before I had made this change I had worked with a Parallels tech support expert. (By the way, they were very responsive.) We had tried a number of things without success, including disconnecting and restarting the cable modem and router.
    I don't know why this change in routers worked. It couldn't be related the WEP encryption on the Linksys versus the WPA2 security on the Airport Extreme because the problem was not with the wireless connection to the MacBook Pro. The problem was with the Mac Pro, which was connected via an ethernet cable, in both cases.
    I am now happy, but confused.
