[vifm] open file with...

Hello guys,
I'm quite impressed about Vifm file manager. But what I still didn't find out is how I can specify default apps for filetypes I'd like to open with vifm. For example I'd like to open images with feh and not with Vi(m) itself as it is preconfigured.
How can I change that behaviour?
Thank you.

Hello mikesd,
that's what I was looking for. Thank you.
One last question. Vifm now opens an image with feh, but I'm not able to switch to another picture that is in the same directory unless I close feh first and open another picture with it. When I start feh manually without vifm that works. How could I implement such a slideshow feature?

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path using any of these perfectly normal methods:
1. double-click file in the Finder (e.g in a Folder on your Mac or on your Mac desktop etc.)
2. select file and choose "File... Open" command-o in the Finder
3. drag file to the application icon in the Finder.
4. Select file in Bridge and double-click, choose File.. Open.. or Drag icon to InDesign icon in dock.
If you try to open an ID file named with a "#", you will get an error message "Missing required parameter 'from' for event 'open.'"
This happens to any InDesign file that has a "#" (pound sign, number sign, or hash) in the filename or in the file path (any parent folder).
To reproduce
Name an InDesign file Test#.idd Try to open it in the Finder or Bridge (as opposed to the "Open" dilaog of InDeisng itself).
"Solution"
The file WILL open using File... Open... command-o while in InDesign application.
Rename the file or folders that have a "#" (shift-3) in the filename.
Report to Adobe if it bugs you.
This does not occur in "plain" Leopard 10.5 nor Tiger 10.4
Untested in Panther or before and
Untested with CS3 and earlier in Snow Leaopard.
Anyone have those and want to try this... ?

In case this really bothers you: we've added a workaround for this into Soxy. If you enable the option, these documents will open fine on double-click.
You need Soxy 1.0.7 from:
http://www.rorohiko.com/soxy
Go to the 'Soxy' - 'Preferences' - 'Other' dialog window, and enable 'Open InDesign via Script'
(Irrelevant background info (it's all invisible to the user): the workaround works by special-casing how Soxy opens documents in InDesign: instead of using AppleScript, Soxy will use ExtendScript to instruct InDesign to open the document - which works fine).

Opening files with Illustrator and photoshop doesn't work, i have to drag the files from finder in to the program. This problem appears after opening 4 a 5 files.

Opening files with Illustrator and photoshop doesn't work, i have to drag the files from finder in to the program.
This problem appears after opening 4 a 5 files, rebooting helps another 4 a 5 times and appears again.

I'd recommend reposting in the Boot Camp forum, that is where the Boot Camp and Windows gurus hang out.
Good luck.

Can´t open files with camera raw

Hi!
I use Adobe Photoshop CS3 and the option to open files with Camera Raw is disabled in Bridge and in PS.

While each situation can be different this has been discussed on several threads. Scan down the list or do a search. If you can't find the answer, post a note.

If you are unable to enter the passcode into your device, you will have to restore the device to circumvent that passcode.
Is the music purchased from iTunes? If it is you can contact iTunes support and ask them to allow you to re-download the music that you purchased from iTunes.
Also, do you sync the device regularly? When syncing an iPod Touch/iPhone a backup file is made. That backup file doesn't contain your music but it does contain your address book, application data, pictures, notes, etc. After restoring your device, you can try restoring from the last backup that was made of your device so you will not have to start over completely from scratch.
Hope this helps!

Developer: How can I let people open files with my program?

Hello Everyone,
I just finished my program for the Mac, and decided to make it an application.
I used Platypus to make my program into an application. Unfortunately when I try to open a file with my program (control + click on file + open with -> other), my application is grayed out and I can't select it. I see it there along with the other applications but I can't select it like I can Mail or TextEdit.
I read somewhere I had to use XCode to let people open files with my program but I have never used XCode and I have no idea how to do that. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Nick

You've posted in the wrong forum. This is the OS X Leopard Installation and Setup forum. You need to post your problem in the Developers forum. Also, since Platypus is not an Apple product, you should visit it's developers forum for assistance. The Apple Discussions is intended to assist users with problems and questions about Apple products only.
To use XCode Tools you need to install it from the Optional Installs folder on your OS X Installer Disc One. It comes with documentation. More assistance can be found at developer.apple.com.

[Flex mobile] Open file with a Filebrowser

Hi everyone,
i want to be able to open files with a file browser in my app, but the browse dialog which is opened by the File.browse() method only displays / opens music or image files. Furthermore im not even able to change the Dialog header when running my project on android:
dir.browseForOpen("Please select a file");
this doesn't work on android, neither does the next code-block:...
var dir:File=new File(File.userDirectory.url+ "/geoforms");
var filter:FileFilter=new FileFilter("Documents","*.txt");
dir.browseForOpen("Please select a file",[filter]);
So what do i have to do, to be able to show a decent file select dialog ?

Nobody any idea?
i tried it like its described in this article:
Declaring file type associations
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=File_formats_1.html
but i can't get it running for my mobile project. The type associations works fine in my desktop air application but it doesn't work in my mobile app. Is this type associations stuff supposed to be working on mobile devices / android?

Xdg-open is opening files with no extension in wine notepad

xdg-open is opening files with no extension in wine notepad. This is really annoying. How can I change it?

Click on "Browse" button at the "Open With" dialog and navigate to the location, where acrord32.exe is located. Preferebly, it should be this location "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" unless you have installed at some customized location. I'm assuming you have installed Reader 9. Once you add Adobe Reader in the open with list, it would continue to appear next time onwards.

Where do you select which program you want to open files with a particular extension?

Where do you go to select which program should open files with particular extensions?

if you right click on the file and select get info, a window will open. Click on the "open with" and the window will expand. There you can select which application you want that document to open with. If you want to open ALL documents of that type with a specific application click the change all button.
