Making Preview the Default App for .pdf Files

When I click on a .pdf file (such as one attached to an e-mail) it now opens in Acrobat Reader; it formerly opened in Preview (which I preferred). I don't recall making any changes and wondered if the "Preview as default" was changed in the recent OSX update. Can I set a preference somewhere to again have .pdf docs opened in Preview?

Hello,
To open a document with a specific application:
In the Finder, select the document and choose File > Get Info.
In the Info window, click to show the "Open with" pane.
Choose the application you want to use from the pop-up menu.
If you want ALL documents that have the same file type as this one to open with the same application, click Change All.

Make Word default app for .doc files

How can I make Word the default app for .doc files? I don't want Pages to launch when I clip on a word doc attachment in an email using Entourage.

I notice you say you're having this problem when you open a document attached to an e-mail within Entourage, correct? If so, this may not be an Apple issue. Check Entourage's settings to see if it has an option that specifies what application opens.
Also, do these files have an extension? If not, that could be causing problems. If there's also no extension, the Mac could get confused, and it may not have any basis for allowing you to Change All. (Change all what?) I could not duplicate this behavior by e-mailing myself a file with no extension, but if a Windows machine were involved, that might change... or maybe not.

Change default app for .dvdmedia files (Finder now treats them as folders)

I need to change .dvdmedia files to open up with an app and not to show up in Finder as a folder as it currently does. How do I do that?
There isn't anymore the usual drop-down menu for Open with... in Get Info dialog window since Finder now treats .dvdmedia files as folders. This happened when I was trying to change the default app for them to something else but the "Open with" section kept showing Finder and when I actually selected the Finder once it started to treat these files as folders. Now I don't know how to get back.
Thanks!

This tip further down the other discussion worked (the 2. part of it): https://discussions.apple.com/message/17531236#17531236
I'm still missing icons for three of my .dvdmedia files and I can only have DVD Player app be the default app but at least I got the files back to files instead of folders.

"1. Open TextEdit (or some text editor), create a small text file and save it.
2. Right-click on the text file, and choose "Get Info".
3. Under Name & Extension, change the extension to ".dvdmedia". Hit Enter to save this change.
4. Under Open With, the associated program should be showing VLC. Select DVD Player instead, and save that change.2

How do I change the default app for opening a file;

If I right click on a file in finder, it tells me what the default app for opening the file is. it also gives me a short list of other apps.
I would like to change the defaults for several file types, and also delete one app from the short list and add a different one.
How do I do this?
thanks

You could try this:
- right-click (tap with 2 fingers on the apple trackpad) on a file you want to open in openoffice
- move the cursor over "open with". You should see the default app, then some suggestions, then app store, then at the end, "other...". Select "other..."
- find openoffice in your applications folder and select it (if it is dimmed, change "enable: " from "recommended applications" to "all applications", then you can select "openoffice")
- check "always open with"
- then, click "open". The file will open in openoffice and from now on, openoffice will be the default application to open the type of file you just opened. You should also see the icon of all files of the same type change to the openoffice file icon.
This is supposed to work, but that's not always the case, especially when the default app happens to be an Apple app. If you don't want to use that Apple app, delete it (or move it elsewhere if you want a backup). That can help.
Good luck!

How do I set Preview to be the default app for opening ALL pdf's?

I have both Preview and Acrobat Professional on a Macbook Air running Mountain Lion.
I don't see an option if I get info on Preview to set it as the default app for all PDF's.
Where can I set this? I only use Acrobat on occasion for form fill-in but prefer to use Preview.
thanks

Looks like I got it to work by selecting a document and setting in get info. For some reason it was not working before.
never mind

Making iWork the default apps for opening Microsoft Office documents

Is there a way to make Pages, Numbers and Keynote the default apps for opening Microsoft Office documents, such that if I double-click a Word document it launches Pages and opens, etc.? I know I can do it by double-clicking the Office document and dragging it to the appropriate iWork app in the dock, but it would be nice to have it happen by default. That way I can put Office in my rearview mirror!

Fantastic - worked exactly as advertized. Thank you both!! Office is now a distant memory (except when I have to save in MS formats to send files to the unfortunate masses).
Best regards,

What's the utility to assign default apps for various file endings?

A few months ago I found a utility that integrates assigning default apps for various file endings. Made it a lot easier, and more thorough, than picking one of each, opening the GET INFO window, assigning it and clicking "open all like this."
But dang I can't recall the name. It was free or shareware. Seems like I read about it in MacWorld, but I haven't been able to come up with it via key word search. Help?
Thanks,

Change default app for DAT files as the su

Hey
I do a lot of work in the terminal and it's sometimes convenient to be "su" permanentely instead of login in and out of the root account. The problem is whenever I try to open a DAT file, it tries to open it with, of all the apps in my Mac, HP Photosmart or something like that -.-
I've done the "cmd+i -> change all" several times now and it only worked for the non-root user...
Does anyone know how to change the deafult app for DAT files as the su (maybe the command line(s) for doing so)??
It's not like it's a life or death thing, it's just that it's a bit annoying having to constantly write "-a Microsoft\ Excel" whenever I want to open such a file (which can be several dozens of times in an afternoon and since the names of the files may change it won't suffice to 'arrow up' to the line previously used =\)
Much appreciated

I'll try that, thanks
I sometimes need it 'cause of permission issues of the files...
(E.g., Some file is sent to me or I'm logged as su to install something using ports and compile/run programs and the output files generated are only readable/editable as su... As I said, it's not a life/death thing, just wanted to know if anyone knew how to fix it once and for all )
I'll post the result as soon as I've tried the proposed solution

How to make Pages default app for .doc files

How do you make Pages/Numbers the default app for all .doc/.xls files?

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Highlight a known Word document in the Finder, highlight it & choose Get Info from the File menu. In the Get Info box, click the triangle next to "Open With." Click on this drop-down menu & choose Pages. If Pages is not a choice, choose "Other" & navigate to the Pages application. Now click the "Change" button under the text that asks if you want to open all documents like this with Pages. Repeat with Excel documents & Numbers.
Be aware that the icons for these documents will be plain white icons.

I am trying to open iTunes on my Windows 7 PC and am getting the following message...the itunes library can not be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder. Any ideas?

I am trying to open iTunes on my Windows 7 PC and am getting the following message...the itunes library can not be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder. Any ideas?

Let's try this first. Hold down the Shift key while you try to launch iTunes. You should eventually see the following dialog:
Click "Choose library". Browse to inside the following location (depending on what operating system you're running):
Operating System
Default location of iTunes library
Microsoft Windows XP
\Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
Microsoft Windows Vista
\Users\[your username]\Music\iTunes\
Microsoft Windows 7
\Users\[your username]\My Music\iTunes\
... and open the iTunes library you find in there.
