[SOLVED] Sudo Ranger does not open files with VIM

I am using ranger as my file manager. And sometimes I run it with sudo. But then it want's to open all with nano. Even tough the environment variables (EDITOR & VISUAL) are set to vim.
Maybe it hast something to do with /bin/sh - but when that is the case, how do I change the default behaviour of /bin/sh?

Sure you can. As the sudoers man page describes, the env_reset option is on by default. You could use the env_keep options. Or use the -E flag for sudo. Or....

Adobe Reader XI does not open files with a command line "path" argument.

Adobe Reader XI does not open files with a command line "path" argument. Version X and lower all worked fine. I have deleted and reinstalled the program with no success. Is this a bug?

Hi Daniel,
What is the make of the printer and is it using PCL or PS driver.?
Do you have Acrobat installed on this machine as well?
Please check if 'Print Spooler' service is running on the machine.

Preview does not open files anylonger

Preview on my MB is not longer working!
It is unable to view pdf. files.
Any suggestions?
Bernhard

If another application tries to open when you double click a pdf file. click once on that file to select it, then press command + I.
in the info window that appears expand the section 'open with' then choose from the drop down 'preview' then click the change all button.
If preview opens but does not open the pdf you may have a bad preference file so trash the following file
/Users/yourname/Library/com.apple.Preview.plist
then reopen preview.

Excel 2013 does not open files

Whenever I click on an Excel spreadsheet, Microsoft Office does not open the file, instead it opens Excel but without any content.
Only thing on the screen is at the bottom left corner and it states "ready"

Hi Christiaan Olivier,
Please refer to following KB and check if help you to solve this issue.
Excel: How to Troubleshoot Excel opening blank when you double-click a file icon or file name
In addition, this issue is more related to Excel. I suggest that you should post the problem in
Excel Forum. I believe we will get a better assistance there.
Hope this helps.

Firefox does not open links with a new window or tab for certain web sites, e.g. Santander On line banking, help links.

[SOLVED] pacman error: could not open file /var/lib ...

the actual error is
error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/sync/community/fonteditfs-1.2-2/desc: No such file or directory
removing that folder fixed it. i dont know if it was a coding mistake or just my box did something stupid today :S
any thoughts?

I don't know if this error occured during an update of right after you've invoked pacman, but in any way synchronizing pacman I think should fix the issue. This is something you might have tried before deleting the file, but then again I don't know when the error occured. If it occured immediately deleting the file would probably be the easiest solution. I would've done the same.
If you've synchronized pacman after you've removed the file all should be well now, maybe something indeed went wrong during an update (maybe your mirror went down or something, you never know).
yes, the error apperared right after syncing the databases. the update went as expected...

Photoshop CS3 lauches but does not open files from Lightroom 2.7

These programs have been on my computer since the dawn of time and have always worked. Now all of a sudden I can't open files from LR into PS. PS launches, but the files don't open. I get that message Photoshop could not be lauched, which is ironic since the program is now open.
I haven't done anything to the programs so it makes no sense. IN the past I have had issues with PS and the tech had me create a new login on my computer and it fixed things. Tried that. No help.
Does anyone ahve any suggestions. I have repaired both programs to no avail.
Thanks for you help.

Something has gone wrong with how Lightroom finds and communicates with Photoshop.
That could be a registry string, or some preference within Lightroom.
The Lightroom forum is more likely to be able to help you solve this.

Double clicking does not open files.

The regular double clicking to open files on desktop, or in e-mail or to play a song in iTunes, does not work. I can get around the problem by going to a scroll down menu and click open or play (a song) but is one more step to get where i need to go. The only thing I used lately that is different is that I used the mouse instead of the trackpad for a day because a small injury in my hands.
I have an iBook G4, 10.5.8
Thank you in advance for your time and attention,
John
PD: The mouse I was trying to use did not work, model M5769. I found the one that came with this computer later that week and worked instantly.

Are we to understand, then, you resolved this issue
by using a different model mouse at the time?
Since I was reading back through older posts to see
if some were left without a reply, I saw this & wonder.
Hopefully you were able to solve this issue and it
would seem as though a different product worked.
I often use a wired USB mouse with my portables.
Almost any brand of mouse including two-button
will work. Fancier ones may require extra software.
Good luck & happy computing!
