Which application will open Epson driver download (.sea.hqx file format)?

I am transitioning from my PowerMac G4 (running OS X 3.9) to a new (to me) Powerbook running Tiger (10.4.8). I have been downloading the drivers for my scanners and printer. The .dmg files opened fine, automatically finding the appropriate application for opening the file. But my Epson scanner driver arrived with a .sea.hqx file format (one which I have been able to open with no problem previously on my PowerMac in Panther). When I click on the file on the desktop, I get a message that says, "There is no default application specified to open the document "epson11019.sea.hqx" Then it gives me the 'choose application' button, but when I click on it, I see nothing I recognize for this purpose. How do I get this task done?
Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   1 Gig SDRAM, 80GB HD

Hello Matt,
Thanks for your time & energy in helping me to solve this problem. A progress report follows:
Just to follow up. It looks like it may be easier to
live with the shortcomings of Expander 11 than try to
downgrade. The procedure I had to use to downgrade
was to remove the Stuffit Expander 11 folder from the
/Applications folder.
I had already done this, and now have version 10.01 installed.
I'm not sure if Expander 11
installs other files or whether I had files left over
from Expander 10, but I also removed Stuffit related
files from /Library/CFMSupport and
/Library/Frameworks.
I couldn't fine either of these files in my Library.
I downloaded Stuffit Expander
10 directly from the ftp site.
ftp://ftp.stuffit.com/pub/archive/mac/Stuffit_Expander
/stuffitexp_1000_xinstall.dmg It should be noted
that this version is PPC only so it would have to run
under Rosetta on Intel Macs.
Finally, I had to use a cache cleaner before Stuffit
Expander 10 would work properly and not assign either
Script Editor or Automator as the application to open
.sea files. I used Applejack from the single user
mode. There are other, more user friendly cache
cleaners available.
This user is hardly a techie, so in all cases, I need the most user friendly, reliable application or utility that I am least likely to get myself into further trouble with. So I'd be happy to hear your thoughts on this matter.
I also take it that there really isn't an alternative to Stuffit Expander for opening these files. Too bad! I see on their website that I am not the only one having problems!
So for the moment, I am still up a creek without a paddle. Any further suggestions are appreciated!

  • CC applications will open in Mavericks, but actual project files crash them

    Haven't seen this one exactly yet here, though I get the feeling the answer will be the same:  solution coming soon, which is actually fine.  But FYI:
    I am working on the most recent Mac Pro upgraded with two Nvidia graphics cards including a modified FX 580 with an external power supply, so not an off-the-shelf system, though it has worked up til now.
    I installed Mavericks, and the 12.0.1 AE update, and the latest CUDA software.  I don't know if I have the latest-latest Nvidia driver because when I try to install it, its installer isn't compatible with Mavericks.  But every other program is still running so I think it's operational. 
    Like the headline says, the programs open just fine, but when I try to open my film edit in Premiere Pro or any effects shots in AE, the programs crash.  AE just quits uncerimoniously; PP gives me that "sorry a serious error has occurred" window you have to click. 
    Any advice or 12.1 updates would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I emailed my logs to Mark Mapes, who then emailed me the below, which solved the problem.

    So it looks like PPRO is crashing on loading some effects from AE.
    After Effects, in turn, is balking at the point where it’s initializing some the Red Giant denoiser plug-in. Another user reported recently that removing Red Giant’s Quicklooks from the Common folder resolved a crash on Mavericks. (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5795188#5795188

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

    Dealing With The Resume Feature of Lion
    Managing Mac OS X Lion's application resume feature.
    If you shutdown your computer you should get a dialog asking if you want applications to resume on the next startup. Simply uncheck the box to prevent that from occurring. Open General preferences and uncheck the option to Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps. You can also install a third-party utility to control resume features on individual applications: RestoreMeNot or Application State Cleaner.
    It is possible to completely stop the Resume feature although I'm unconvinced that it is that annoying. Nevertheless see the following:
    If you have not yet done so you must first make your /Home/Library/ folder visible. Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the prompt paste the following command line:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press RETURN. Quit the Terminal application.
    In the Finder navigate to the /Home/Library/Saved Application State/ folder. Delete the contents of the folder. Back up to the /Home/Library/ folder. Select the Saved Application State folder. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Sharing and Permissions panel at the bottom click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window.
    Quit all open programs except the Finder (this is very important.) Next, navigate to the /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/ folder. Look for a .plist file with "com.apple.loginwindow." in the file name followed by some numbers in hexadecimal. Select the file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and in the Sharing and Permissions panel click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window. If you also find a file with the same filename but with a last extension of ".lockfile," then you should delete it.
    The above should eliminate the Resume feature system-wide. Note that any future system updates or upgrades will likely undo these changes. You will then need to repeat this procedure assuming there are no major changes in OS X related to it.

  • I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!

    I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!!!!

    Try this. It worked for me.
    I discovered the same problem.  I had an older version of Pages on my iPad. After updating it to the latest version all my previous documents created in pages for the iPad were rendered unreadable and a message stated that they were an invalid format.  Why for the life of me would a program that was created by Apple and sense updated not be able to read previous versions...well that's a whole other sad story.  Any way I discovered how to fix it but it would require that you had backup your iPad on a computer and not emptied your trash. If this sounds good than here is how you fix it... And it worked for me.
    These steps will enable you to reinstall a previous version of the Pages app so you can be able to read and edit older documents.
    FIRST: if you did backup your iPad using your computer and did not empty your trash, GOTO the trash and look for PAGES 1.4 (or other number) ipa ( that's the file extension) ie PAGES 1.4 ipa.
    SECOND: move that file out of the trash and onto your desktop.  Once you do this, double click on it and a box will come up stating a newer version has been found and do you want to revert back to older version. ANSWER YES. It will than automatically place and overwrite the older version back into the file on iTunes that contains the rest of your backed up apps.
    THIRD: and this is where it is important that your backup would have to have been on your computer. I'm not sure if backup on the cloud will work.  iCloud backup at your own risk And here's why. Before you restore you will need to remove the latest version of Pages off your iPad by doing the usual : holding down the home button until the apps wiggle and remove by pressing on X on app.  Removing off your iPad will also delete all your documents but if you have a previous backup on your computer those documents will be stored safely on itunes and will return.
    FORTH: plug your iPad into your computer and allow it to sync so iTunes will recognize it. Once iTunes is up and you can see that it recognizes your iPad, GOTO "FILE/DEVICES/RESTORE FROM BACKUP."  ******* DO NOT CLICK ON BACKUP***** click on RESTORE FROM BACKUP. This will reinstall all previous settings and documents that were their when you backuped PLUS the older version of Pages that you placed back from the above steps. Let it run through all the setups ( this could take up to 20 minutes...depending on amount of data and photos and apps).
    FIFTH: Once everything is reinstalled a message will popup on your computer stating "to leave iPad plugged in until iTunes recognizes it again" ( it's basically rebooting itself).  Once done (leave iPad plugged in still) GOTO iPad and follow the steps. IMPORTANT:  iPad will ask you if you want to SET IT UP AS A NEW IPAD, BACK UP FROM THE CLOUD or BACK UP FROM ITUNES.....press SET UP AS NEW IPAD. Follow all of the steps required. Once complete GOTO iTunes on computer, look for "IPAD" plus a little arrow ( should be on upper right corner of iTunes window, click on it ( this will safely disconnect your iPad from iTunes) . Now unplug iPad from computer and go to your iPad and look for the older version of Pages. It should be there along with all your old documents ( readable and editable too).
    Hope this helps. Good luck.

  • Dashboard has stopped working. The application will open, but none of the widgets will function. I've deleted widgets

    Dashboard has stopped working. The App will open, but none of the widgets will function. I've deleted widgets & added new ones, but they also will not work.

    I get the "License has stopped working" mesages too.
    We have a MacbookPro at home. There are two user-acounts on this mac, one for my wife and one for myself. This way we keep our personal stuff (e-mail, files, settings, dropbox, desktop clutter etc) separated. "Fast user switching" is enabled to easily switch to your personal account.
    Now when I open Photoshop I might get the dreaded "License has stopped working" message. This will happen if Photoshop is left open in her account. So I'll have to log into her account, close Photoshop, go back into my own acount and open Photoshop again.
    I should not get this message since Photoshop is not part of a particular user account, it is installed in the "Applications" folder which is accesible to all users.
    What makes it even more annoying is that I get the "License has stopped working" message on trying to open Photoshop even when Photoshop is closed in in the other acount, but Illustrator is opened.
    This makes no sense since we bought Photoshop and Illustrator CS3 as separate programs, not as a part of the Creative Suite.
    I did not report this to Adobe yet but it wil do that now.

  • Which application should I choose to download Illustrator?

    trying to download Illustrator CC and it is asking which application? I have no idea which application to download it to.

    Tania,
    Have you installed the Creative Cloud management (in the list of apps on the cloud download page, find the adobe manager. That must be downloaded and installed first. Most browsers will jump to that install when you select one of the other apps first. But some browsers are having a problem doing so. Once the manager is installed and running, you can find illustrator listed in the manager. Click the install link next to the Illustrators name. That will download and install illustrator for you)?

  • None of my word processing applications will open.

    My word processing applications will not open, this includes anything from Microsoft Office (powerpoint, excel, word, etc) and Appleworks.
    Anytime I try to open these applications I get a message that says "the application quit unexpectedly" and gives me the options of report, ignore, or reopen. When I try to reopen it just gives me the same message.
    I have restarted multiple times and have attempted (and failed) a hardware test. I have not attempted to uninstall or reinstall anything because I am scared to mess it up further, I'm not really technologically inclined.
    I am running
    Mac OS X 10.6.8
    Microsoft Office X
    Appleworks 6  (I know no one cares about Appleworks but I like it)

    You will need to fully uninstall Office, then reinstall it from scratch and from the original distribution media. You will need an AppleWorks installer to reinstall it. I would consider getting a backup drive so you can backup your computer before going further.

    Hi Lindsay,
    "Can I get one from a mac store? Does it have to be the original one I used when I purchased my mac?"
    No, you can no longer purchase 10.3 Panther disks from Apple Stores, online or otherwise. You may however, be able to purchase replacement disks for your computer (if Mac OS 10.3 were the original install disks that came with your mac) by calling Apple and explaining and having the serial number ready of the computer.
    If your installation of 10.3 was an upgrade you can purchase retail copies of 10.3 disks online from many resellers, such as on ebay or sites such as FastMac, but be sure to purchase a retail box set and not upgrade or machine specific disks.
    Did you perform all of the steps that Kappy steered you to in Dr. Smoke's FAQ first and your only option left is the Archive and Install?

  • How to make the Open/Save dialogue download the text file instead of JSP

    I am currently coding on a JSP program, which searches the database and writes the resultset into a file on the server, and then allows the client to download this tab delimited text file onto their local machine. But I met a problem, when the default Open or Save dialogue appears, it shows that it's trying to download the running JSP file from my local host instead of the newly-created text file. Despite this, when I click OK to either Open or Save the file, a warning dialogue will appear saying: The explorer cann't download this file, it's unable to find this internet site or something like that. I get no error message from the server but I was always told that Javax.servlet.ServletException: getWriter() was already called. What does this mean?
    I guess maybe this is caused by the mix use of outputStreams in my program. I don't know if there is a way to directly read the resultset from the database and then send it through outputStream to the client. My solution is: first create a file on the server to hold the resultset, and then output this file to the client. I did all these in one JSP program: Create file on the server, search database, and then read file and output the contents to client. Is this correct? I attached my code, please feel free to correct any of my mistake? Thanks!

    Thanks. I believe something wrong with this statement
    in my program:
    You are correct there is something wrong with this statement. Seeing how you are doing this in a jsp, not really what they're made for but thats another topic, the output stream has already been called. When a jsp gets compiled it creates a few implicit objects, one of them being the outputstream out, and it does this by calling the response.getWriter(). getWriter or getOutputStream can only be called once, other wise you will get the exception you are experiencing. This is for both methods as well, seeing how the jsp compiles and calls getWriter means that you cannot call getOutputStream. Calling one makes the other throw the exception if called as well. As far as the filename problem in the browser goes I'm guessing that it's in IE. I've had some problems before when I had to send files to the browser through a servlet and remember having to set an inline attribute of some sort in the content-dis header inorder to get IE to see the real filename. The best way to solve this is to get the orielly file package and use that. It is very easy to use and understand and does all of this for you already. Plus it's free. Cant beat that.
    ServletOutputStream outs =
    response.getOutputStream();
    because I put a lot of printout statement within my
    code, and the program stops to print out exactly
    before the above statement. And then I get the
    following message, which repeats several times:
    ServletExec: caught exception -
    javax.servlet.ServletException: getWriter() was
    already called.
