"TDMS Open.vi" won't open file if not administrator

I have an app that I install and run from a subFolder of the program files folder, and there's a TDMS file that installs alongside it (it's a set of pattern match data that the app needs). When the app calls "TDMS Open.vi" everything works fine if I'm logged on as an administrator, but I get an error 8 (file permission error).if I'm not.
When I'm not an admin, I can run the exe that's in the same folder - why can't that exe then load the TDMS file? What am I missing here?

That's because you are used to LAVA. We have trouble spelling TDMS or LVOOP on this forum.
At least someone's watching Thanks Ben!

You are posting in the "icloud on my mac" forum, but your profile mentions Windows. If using a mac, you need to have iphoto or aperture installed in order to receive new photos via photo stream. If using windows, try posting in the iCloud on a PC forum. You'll get better help there.

Photos in library when I open, but won't open in edit?

When I open iphoto all my photos are there, but when I double click to open into edit they won't open - also when I checked to see if a photo would open from DESKTOP PREFERENCES as DESKTOP PHOTO, photo wouldn't open and lost ability to open any photo (as desktop photo) from library. All photos are definitely in the PICTURES FOLDER in IPHOTO LIBRARY FOLDER. All this started happening yesterday when I was rearranging/trashing/renaming with BRIDGE/PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS?

F:
The problem isn't with the iPhoto application it's with the library folder and the contents. The database file has been corruputed so what you are probably facing is creating a new library and importing the Originals folder from the old library as follows:
Creating a new library while preserving the rolls from the original.
Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
This will create a new library with the same rolls as the original library. However dates on the rolls may be different but can be edited as you would the roll title.
Once this is completed you can delete the Originals folder from the desktop and the iPhoto Llibrary folder. If desired, you can keep the older library folder to try other fixes on it.
In the future I recommend you make a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto file after each import and after doing a lot of editing and organizing in the library. Then if you experience a similar crash all you need to do is replace the damaged database file with the backup copy and you'll be back to the same place in the library as when you make the backup. See the tip at the end of my signature.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Can't open sequences or import clips - File format not supported

We have an iMac workstation here running Premiere that will not open projects or import clips. Here's the sequence of events that led to this:
1. Premiere was locking up on the splash screen whenever it got to "ImporterQuicktime.bundle". I tried trashing preferences and launching with plug-ins disabled and received the same freeze. Based on forum recommendations I removed "ImporterQuicktime.bundle" and "ExporterQuickTimeHost.bundle" from the plug-ins folder inside the package. The software launched fine - but none of the Quicktime files in the project were working. So I then took copies of the above 2 files from the iMac next to this one, with the exact same configuration, and pasted them into the plug-ins folder. Since then - launching the software has generated the below errors.
2. Attempting to open any project gives a long error that starts as: The preset used by one or more sequences in this project requires third-party components that could not be located.
3. Starting a new project and attempting to drag any Quicktime ProRes media into the project gives the error: File Format not supported.
I have trashed the preferences, re-installed the Pro Apps Quicktime Codecs, de-authorized the computer and re-authorized it, and upgraded Adobe Premiere from 7.0 to 7.2. None of which fixed the issue.
I'm thinking about trying a complete re-install of Premiere next. Any other ideas?
Here's the details:
Premiere Pro CC 7.2
Mac OS 10.8.5
iMac late 2012 model, 32Gb RAM, 2Gb video card
Thanks.
Don Hertz

I seem to have figured out a work around. It appears the 7.2 upgrade is making it so that our Quicktime XDCAM 422 clips are not properly recognized. Clips both currently in a project and new clip imports do not work. Attempting to import clips using this codec generates the error message: Unsupported format or damaged file. This has happened on both an iMac system running 10.8.5 OS and a Macbook Pro running 10.9.1 OS - both of which were upgraded to Premiere 7.2. In both cases - uninstalling and re-installing Premiere resolved the issue.

When trying to open documents, getting error as File is not a valid Win32 application

Hi,
I am trying to open a MPP by clicking on the name of the file. But I am getting the error as "path\filename.mpp is not a valid Wind32 application".
I am able to save the document and open it in MPP, but clicking on the document name is giving this error "File is not a valid Win32 application".
I have tried to repair "Microsoft Project". But still the same issue. I am using Office 2010. SharePoint site is SP 2010.
How to fix this?
Thanks

Hi Ed,
I am sorry, but I could not understand that answer.
I have put that answer in the below quotes:
"You are never going to believe what I did. This is a nice ending to a very confusing situation. lol
I uninstalled Project 2007 and rebooted my laptop and reinstalled Project 2007. No Difference at all. Same thing happened. I just couldn't stop thinking about how 2007 Microsoft Office Component kept showing up in default programs. This has bugged me for days.
I went browsing in my program files. I typed in Microsoft Office Project. The only thing I found was WINPROJ. I decided to check it out. I checked it's properties, size, location, etc.. What did I have to lose at this point? I clicked on it and it went into
my default programs as Microsoft Office Project 2007. This doesn't make any sense to me. But, don't try to fix anything else if it isn't broken, right? It's working and I am so relieved. I mean, YAAAAY!!! Another mystery solved...
Thanks for hanging in there with me to help solve this mystery. You have been of great assistance to me. You made me think outside the box and it worked.
Laura"
Does it mean MPP Should be a 2007 version?
Thanks

Safari 4.1.1 opens but won't open a window or a tab

Safari 4.1.1 opens quickly without a window. When you try to open a window nothing happens. When you try to open a tab, the tab briefly opens and then Safari crashes. Tried reinstalling Safari to no avail. Firefox operates with no problems, but I want to afp files and I need Safari. I used Disk Utility to check permissions but no problems found. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

You may want to upgrade to 4.1.2 [Here|http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15675/apple-safari].

Some pages are very very slow opening or won't open in Safari 4.04

I have browsed thru the other posts and would try the DNS trick mentioned but there is no advanced tab when I open the System Network Preferences - I use Airport - or I'm not clear how to reset those numbers. My cache is cleaned out, I have reset Safari. My webpage for my band that I made on iweb - www.thestraydogsrock.com takes forever to loan or sometimes hangs up. Many webpages open right up and others open partially with the spinning logo and LOADING in the main bar. I'm a newbie so any help would be appreciated. Firefox does open all pages quicker at this point but I really prefer the Safari interface.

Try this, instead:
1. Go to Home/Library/Cookies and delete the Cookies.plist file.
2. Go to Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
3. Go to Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Web Page Previews and delete the contents of that folder.
4. If you don't want to use the Top Sites or Cover Flow features, open Terminal and paste in this command:
defaults write com.apple.Safari DebugSnapshotsUpdatePolicy -int 2
then press Enter or Return and quit Terminal
5. Go to Home/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
6. Go to Home/Library/Caches/Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
7. Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete these files (if you have them):
Downloads.plist
History.plist
Form Values
LastSession.plist
WebpageIcons.db
Then Repair Permissions, restart Safari and see if the problem continues.

I can't open an .ai file in Illustrator without a dialog box appearing "Open PDF." I have no idea what I can't open it as an Illustrator file (and not a PDF)

Once I open a page as a PDF, all my layer info is lost. I've tried opening it on two machines and the dialog box continues to appear. Again, it's not a PDF extension.
Thanks for the help!

Since you're sure you saved it back to CS5, the issue might have been caused by saving directly to the server. Illustrator does not particularly like that.
90% of corrupt files are caused by saving directly to the server.
You might try and first copy the file to your harddisk and then open it from there. Opening files directly from the server is an issue as well.

"Open In" functionality with .ibooks file does not work

I am using the latest iBooksAuthor v2.2 and exporting an iBook to the .ibooks file format. I have tried with and without a version number. When I import the .ibooks file using the "Open In" functionality on the iPad it opens in the iBooks app. However, if the book is already in iBooks it does not overwrite the existing iBook with the new file that has the changes I have made. Am I missing a setting somewhere to ensure this works?

Hello kbbean,
The resource below will explain how to publish and update to your previously published book in the iBooks Store:

Before you can publish an update to your book:
You must have a Paid Books Account or Free Books Account.
You must have submitted your book to the iBooks Store at least one time.
You must install iTunes Producer on your Mac.
You must install iBooks Author 2.0 or later. We recommend the latest version of iBooks Author.
Your book’s file size can't be larger than 2 GB.

Error message when double-clicking icon to open document, won't open

My documents will not open when I double click their icon. They will open when dragged to the application icon or from the application itself. I get an error message if I try to open by double-clicking the icon. This is for In-Design, Photoshop, Illustrator, etc. Is this a simple fix?
Thank you.

Select one of the icons in question and do a Get Info on it.
You will be presented with the standard Get Info window telling you, amongst other things, what the default program is to open the file.
You can also select "Use this application to open all similar douments like this".
See if that helps.
Normally the finder will do this for you so there may be other issues going on with your user preferences.

I suddenly cannot open my mailbox AND my computer won't shut down because the mailbox is open - it won't open OR close!

If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling '''one at a time''' until the problem reappears. '''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change''' via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.
