Some photo images downloaded to a desktop file, won't open

I get a permissions error saying I don't have permission to open it. I don't know if that is a setting on my computer or the way we are
downloading/saving the image.
The web site, has no restrictions of permission they say.

Hit CTRL+SHIFT+DEL, change the dropdown menu to '''Everything''', checkmark '''Cache '''(uncheck the others) and then click the '''Clear Now '''button.
Then go to '''Tools '''| '''Options '''| '''Advanced '''| '''Network '''(tab) and in the middle menu, click the '''Clear Now''' button.
Next, go to Tools | Options | Privacy and click the Show Cookies button. Type Java in the Search field and then delete all the Java cookies. If you have a Cookie manager installed, make sure it's configured to accept cookies from java (dot) com.
Then go to the following link: http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
You want the online file which will be an .exe. See screenshot.

Desktop files won't open with mouse click

I'm sure this has an obvious solution, but I can't find it.
(I'm on a new Powerbook G4 running Tiger)
When I try to open a folder or file on my desktop by double clicking it, nothing happens.
However, when I click once on the folder/icon to highlight it, then hit Command + O, it opens/launches.
I want to be able to open files with my touchpad without having to use the keys. Is there a setting for this?
Thanks!!!!

You might want to go into the System Preferences under "Keyboard & Mouse" and check your double-click settings. Also, if I understand correctly, to click using the trackpad itself, you can select "Clicking" under the trackpad options.

Open any folder on your hard drive and go to the Go menu and select the Desktop option:
Type Command + F to open the serarch window for the Desktop and set Kind = Image
Select all of the files displayed, Command (right) - click on them and select the Move to Trash option in the contextual menu:
Go back to the Desktop. If you want to save those photos create a new folder on the Desktop, open the Trash in the Dock and move them to the new folder on the Desktop.
If you don't want to save those files just empty the Trash in the Dock.

After downloading iphone pictures to desktop, itunes won't open. I downloaded itunes 10.6 (64bit) but get "Do you want the following program to make changes to your computer?" Apple Inc. I've clicked "yes", restarted the computer, and still no luck.

Keynote (6.2) file won't open. Can I make a new Index.zip file using some of the extracted .iwa files?

Keynote (6.2) file won't open (hung and crashed during auto-OS update). Trying to salvage everything possible. I know about grabbing the pictures from Data folder, but is there a way to extract the good .iwa files and make a new Index.zip?
Tried extracting, capturing uncorrupted .iwa and deleting corrupted ones, but can't figure out how to re-compress to readable format for Keynote. Seems silly that I can't ge the new .zip file to work. There has to be some sort of manual work-around, yeah?
Thanks.

This problem has been reported to the AppleWorks team, but I doubt that we will ever hear if there is a fix. AppleWorks 6 is now nearly 6 years old & hasn't even had an update since March, 2004.
Nothing has been found to be able to make AppleWorks 6.2.9 open the problem files. I've had it happen & not happen with all AppleWorks file types. These files can be opened by any other version of AppleWorks 6, including the OS 8/9 component 6.2.8. If you have the retail version of AppleWorks & have Classic installed, you can "Force" AppleWorks 6 to open in Classic to open the files, save them as AW 6 files & then open them in the OS X version. You do want to make sure you don't have both the Classic & OS X versions of AppleWorks 6 running at the same time. I find it much easier to use AppleWorks 5 in Classic to open & save the files. AppleWorks 6.2.9 has no problem opening AppleWorks 5 files.

Iphoto won't share photos by email, share file won't open.

iphoto won't share photos by email, share file won't open. what do I do?

Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?

HI,
If iChat is Open and your think Accounts/Screen Names are logged in then go to the Window Menu
This should list the accounts that are logged in with various keystrokes ( Apple/CMD ( or ⌘) and a Number) shown next to them.
Using these should get the Buddy list "back".
It is possible to Hide the Buddy list and then Quit iChat.
iChat will then "remember" where the windows were eve if this was Hidden.
Can you confirm that after reinstalling or restoring from Time Machine with possibly an Earlier Version you have Downloaded the COMBO version of OS X 10.6.8 and "run the COMBO" (Installed it - again) to update iChat ?
It is possible the text chat Window is also Hidden on double clicking a Buddy.
The easiest way for this to happen is to use a second Display and drag some windows to the second Display.
iChat "remembers" where you last had Outgoing Chats so Audio and Video windows will be where you left them as will Text Chats.
Incoming Chat Invites are normally in set places unless there is a chat already open to that Buddy.
With Windowing issue like this is sometimes pays to delete com.apple.ichat.plist itself (on it's own) and restart iChat (this plist holds the window positions amongst other things)

Pages 5.1, tried everything, file won't open. Need it to open or my MA is gone

Ok.. so I created a document using Pages like 1 month ago and saved it on iCloud...
Then I started typing... and typing... and typing... (and saving obviously).
Everything was OK until a couple of hours ago - and the I panicked...
The file didn't open... Around 60 pages gone...
Tried everything and the darn thing always says "[NAME] can't be opened"
I have no idea if I created the file using Pages 5 or 5.1... right now I have Pages 5.1 because I'm guessing it auto-updated when it got released.
I took the file off iCloud, I have it now on my Desktop - still won't open.
Created several copies and started messing with the Package Contents - still won't open.
Uploaded it again to iCloud - still won't open.
Took it off iCloud (again), erased all my files from iCloud (using the Systems Preferences) - still won't open.
Sent a copy to my iPad, updated my iPad's Pages, tried to open the file - still won't open.
Uninstalled Pages, re-installed it again - still won't open.
To be honest I really don't mind re-typing the entire thing... therefore, is there anyway that I can (somehow) open the thing or export it to PDF or JPEG or whatever?????... I just don't wanna do the entire analysis from scratch.
Or is anybody there that can help - maybe you can somehow open the file, export it to PDF and email me the PDF...???
// Help :'(
Cheers

Thanks Ricardo
I got the file. It is unopenable in Pages 5.1.
I opened the package and did a bit of research on the Net as to the problems/solutions (basically none) for the .iwa format.
I tried to disassemble and reassemble the package but it still wouldn't open.
1. I take it you are fine with the images which I had no trouble opening.
2. The preview file is just the cover as 3 sizes of .jpg
3. I was able to get into the Document.iwa file inside the Index.zip and recognised snippets of Spanish and numerical bits probably from your tables/charts. If you want to do the same, and might be able to recognise some of it, use TextWrangler or similar Texteditor.
I couldn't find much in the Tables .iwa files or other files.
You didn't by any chance password (encrypt) the document?

Old Applications & files won't open in OSX-Tiger/Classic

[post moved from other forum]
I finished my Powerbook's hardware upgrade with success yesterday(with thanks to JPL, Sig, A_Brody and other's great advice). System is now Powerbook G3 400 Firewire with 512mbRam, new 40GB HDD, and OS-X Tiger. However...
I can't seem to get the older Applications or their files to open. I get the error message:
"There is no default application specified to open the document Appleworks 6"
and/or
"Could not be opened because the application that created it could not be found--- could not find a translation extension with appropriate translators"
The upgrade/update procedure included...
===Back-up all files on the old 10GB HDD to an external USB drive.
===Remove old and replace w/new 40GB HDD, also install new 512MB PC-133 RAM module in lower slot.
===booted from old OS CD and ran Hard drive set-up utility with two partitions, one 30GB the other 10GB.
===Install OS 9.0.4 from that original Apple software CD onto the first 30GB partition.
===Onto same partition, ran OS-9 Update 9.1.0, then 9.2.1, then fireware update 4.1.8f5, then Update 9.2.1
===Installed OS-X Tiger onto the first 30GB partition
===Moved all backed-up files from the external USB drive onto the second 10GB partition.
I have tried running the old applications in both OS-X Classic mode and also after changing the "Start-up Disk" to the smaller partition (which should be a clone of how the original Hard drive was set-up i.e. folder structure etc.)
I'm quite surprised that when re-booting to the smaller partiton, that although it looks just like my system prior to upgrading, the apps don't run and the files don't open those older apps that created them. I assumed that the smaller Partition--and booting to it--would be the same as if the original Hard drive was still in the powerbook.
When I get those error messages above, I have followed the "Choose Application" button thru to where I could choose the application. I follow to the "Applications (Mac OS 9" folder to where the actual APPLEWORKS 6 app (for exmaple) is located, but it is greyed out and can't be selected. BTW later I did copy all of the contents of the original "Applications" folder from the backed-up HDD into the OSX "Applications Mac OS 9" folder. Also note, the apps in that folder are listed as KIND "Unix Executable File". The files (in this case AppleWorks files) are also listed as that file KIND.
===In the OSX's System Preferences/System/Classic/Advanced tab, I have tried the REBUILD DESKTOP procedure--with no effected change. I know I read elsewhere in discussions that there was a procedure to re-boot with a certain keyboard held-key combo that allows to re-build desktop upon booting?? I don't remember the keyboard combo. And,not certain how that procedure is different.
===In the change Start-Up disc Utility, I now see four Systems to choose from...
Mac OSX 10.4 on New 30GB HD
Mac OS 9.2.2 on New 30GB HD
Mac OS on Old 10GB HD (that's the smaller partition),
Mac OS 9.2.2 on New 30GB HD
Network Start-up
Both the second and forth choice will boot-up to OS 9.2, but as mentioned the apps won't run and files won't open
I'm guessing the reason the third choice won't boot (it reverts back to OSX Tiger when I try) is because that original System copy is OS 9.0.4 (backed-up prior to running the OS-9.1 and 9.2.1, 9.2.2 updates.). Also note, when in OS 9.2.2 when I go into that Utility... Apple/Control Panels/Startup Disk it doesn't list the old OS on the smaller partition. BTW could I now run/perform the OS-9 updates to bring that System on the smaller HD partition up to OS-9.2.2 with out causing problems (and maybe providing solutions?)
I wonder...
??? Why would I be having to choose which application would open an application---wouldn't an app open on its own (Unix Executable File")
??? When I moved the orig HD back-ups on the external USB drive I noticed a file with some kind of PC icon was being created within the folder. Currently I see that the file is now displayed as FINDER.DAT. Does this file relate to the error that refers to "appropriate translators"? Could the Apple Macintosh files being backed-up onto an external USB drive that may not have been formated as Apple HFS type be causing a problem?
??? Why wouldn't the smaller 10GB partition with the old HDD back-up copy moved to it not function like the original Hard drive? Particularly when I choose to boot to its SYSTEM w/Start-up Disc? BTW when I choose that route, the powerbook just boots to OSX Tiger.
THANKS for any replies, you all have been a great help with the challenges of upgrading...
MSG-PWRBkG3
PS:
Sorry for the long post. But, I have included as much up-front details as possible to assist in your replies. I also want to help others reading this thread later on as to what (correct or incorrect) procedures were followed... to help them see how these in-compatibility scenerios would be similiar to their situations... leading to solutions for all.

Thank you for including as much detail as you did. It makes it much easier to troubleshoot this type of issue. What I'll do is basically follow along with the procedure you used and point out where you (unknowingly) ran into problems.
"Back-up all files on the old 10GB HDD to an external USB drive."
Okay, I'm betting that this external USB drive was formatted as PC-Exchange/Windows format. Since this type of disk format doesn't have native support for the special "Mac" information about files (such as resource forks and HFS metadata like file type and creator codes), when Mac OS writes files to these disks, it needs to use a special method. When you copy the files from OS 9, OS 9 adds special "FINDER.DAT" files and also stores the resource-fork-parts of the original files inside a "RESOURCE.FRK" folder on the disk. My FAQ goes into more detail about this. When, from OS 9, you look at the files you just copied to the PC-formatted disk, and they appear identical to the files on your original 10 GB hard drive, that is in fact a complete illusion. The files as they exist on the PC-formatted disk are very different from what they appear. When you hook it up to your OS 9 Mac, the files appear fine, and you can copy them and have them work just like the original files did. If, on the other hand, you hook this PC-formatted hard drive up to your OS X Mac, it looks at the files in a completely different way. If you copy the files off of this disk from OS X, most of the files won't be usable.
"Remove old and replace w/new 40GB HDD, also install new 512MB PC-133 RAM module in lower slot."
"booted from old OS CD and ran Hard drive set-up utility with two partitions, one 30GB the other 10GB."
"Install OS 9.0.4 from that original Apple software CD onto the first 30GB partition."
"Onto same partition, ran OS-9 Update 9.1.0, then 9.2.1, then fireware update 4.1.8f5, then Update 9.2.1"
"Installed OS-X Tiger onto the first 30GB partition"
"Moved all backed-up files from the external USB drive onto the second 10GB partition."
If you did this from OS X, you will run into problems, whereas if you do this from OS 9, you'll be okay. The reason for this, as I mentioned above, is that OS X doesn't know how to "see" the files in the same way that OS 9 does.
This is what I would do. Make sure you still have the PC-formatted drive with the files you backed up from OS 9. Reboot into one of your versions of OS 9 that works properly. Hook up the external USB drive, and the files on it should appear properly and function properly. Now copy the files over onto your local hard drive and they should work properly as well. The files that you copied over from OS X won't be useful and can be deleted. Then reboot into OS X and you should be all set.
Hope this helps....

_____HELP!_Illustrator file won't open "Photoshop file is not readable"

Help!
My Illustrator file won't open - it starts to, then after 1 second I get the error message: "Photoshop file is not readable"
Any suggestions?

Right now I am also having the same problem! Eeek! If anyone has a workaround that'll be awesome. Unfortunately, this is the only post I've seen that someone else has the same problem.
Anyway, this is what I did...
I made some images in photoshop and I linked them to my illustrator file. I saved several various versions of my illustrator file... but now all 10 versions of them won't work! I can't figure it out. I tried re-saving my PSD file (that I had all the images in) and yep.. no cigar.
