"you are opening application "xyz" for the first time are you sure you want

When working in Tiger or Panther if I click on a document eg: word, illustrator, photoshop, indesign. and the application that is supposed to open this document is not open already. You get a warning message. that says "you are opening application "xyz" for the first time are you sure you want to open it. " Even though this is not the first time the application has been launched. However if you launch the application from the applications folder or from the dock the warning does not appear.
How do you disable this warning or at least correctly inform the OS that the application has been opened before.application
This happens from clean installs and those that have their launch services database cleared the link from document to application survives a logout but not a restart. I know it is a security feature and not a bug but it would be nice to know where this cache/.plist is and why it is suffering from amnesia.
Textedit does not exhibit this behavior across installs but any other app does I get the warning whether it is a user with a l

This could be related to the Side effects of System cache cleaning.

HOW TO STOP you are opening this program for the first time

I continue to get the warning "you are opening this program for the first time". I don't want that warning to ever appear again for any program. How to permanently get this warning to never again appear?
Best regards,

Thomas,
The reason I don't want these warnings (especially for programs that I have had on my Mac for years!) is because I now use ecamm's "Printopia" to send items from my iPad3 running iOS 6.0.1 to my MacBook Pro-13 (mid-2010) running Mountain Lion 10.8.2 -- and in order to do this:
1. Both my iPad and Mac have to be on the same WiFi network.
2. The Mac has to be awake, cannot be in the "sleep" mode
OK but in order to wake my Mac, I've found that using the app "Remote" on my iPad to open iTunes AND PLAY A SONG will "waken" my Mac*.
So now, for example, I send a .jpg file to my Mac. I have it set so that GraphicConverter opens when a .jpg file is to be opened. OK but if this warning appears (and even though I have had GraphicConverter on the Mac since the beginning of time…) I sometimes (like today) get this warning. Of course I am not at my Mac and yet when I eventually go to my Mac-- there is that dialog box sitting there and until I click OK the photo doesn't open (and on my iPad I don't get a confirmation that it has been sent, because it hasn't until I click OK on the Mac).
This could happen for other types of files, too - text files or Word documents etc.
It seems to happen when I UPDATE a program, like when GC went from 8.3 to 8.3.1 for example.
Thanks for any additional comments.
*Perhaps there is a better / faster / easier way to "waken" my Mac from my iPad? This is the only way I have found so far…

Opened Firefox this morning and it was like I had just installed it for the first time

What is going on with Firefox. Everything was fine last night. This morning I opened it to check the weather and what opened was a new Firefox asking me if I wanted to make it my default browser. All my bookmarks were there. All the add-ons were there but none of them worked and. I installed Personnas and it worked and then I closed it down. Now I went to open it and it won't open so I'm writing you in Google Chrome. I have loved Firefox but I think it's getting like Internet Explorer. Nothing but problems and doesn't want to work half the time. How very sad.

This may be a problem with preference that aren't saved properly.
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

After updating to 10.7.4 on my imac it booted into a brand new user like i had switched it on for the first time.

Hello all!
Im logging in with the same credentials that i used literally 15 minutes before the update.
Its really odd. it will not log into my desktop. its a totally new user but using my credentials so all my settings are fresh.
does anyone know a way of getting my machine back to its previous state? i dont use time machine (not sure that would help anyway)
We log into a server here at work which gives us access to the internet and other servers for files etc. But our programs/details are kept locally. like i say the user folder still exists but i cannot log into it as the credentials open up a new user. There are no other credentials to log in with either.
baffling!
Hope someone has had this problem and managed to sort something out.
Regards
Chris

well me and my collegue fixed this. It had renamed the user folder to 'imac' i simply changed the user folder that i originally logged into back to its original name and its now fixed and letting me log back into my proper desktop.

Long time windows user... opens up mbp for the first time?

Okay,
Im a long time advanced windows user.
But i know absolutely nothign about mbps or osx
I want to know anything i might not figure oput on my own
Im not talking about how programs work and stuff, im talking more abou the imporatant things, that might screw me up later if i dont know them
Some examples;
I read something about how i should reinstall tiger when i get my mac. is that true?
what is firmware, and how do i update it?
I read someth9ing about leaving my mac on at night so it can do system tasks, more info on this..?
and,, i read that i shyould be completely draining the battery at least once a week or something...?
the stuff like that,
remember, ive never used a mac before
kthanks:)
UPDATE: this is unrelated but still, when i use boot camp, does wireless work? And howabout isight?
And; are most of the issues with vista drivers and such worked out with boot camp?
Thanks:)

I read something about how i should reinstall tiger when i get my mac. is that true?
Some people advocate that, but I've never found it to be necessary. Such advice presumes that something can go amiss with the factory software load. So you can if you wish, but I feel it's unnecessary effort.
what is firmware, and how do i update it?
Firmware is the built-in programs that tell the basic hardware how to operate; how to find the hard drive and start from it, etc. BIOS is the equivalent in the Windows world. If firmware updates are released, they'll appear in the Mac OS X Software Update and instructions on what to do will be provided.
I read someth9ing about leaving my mac on at night so it can do system tasks, more info on this..?
There are some basic UNIX tasks - clearing log files and such - that run at night and only run if the system is awake. Unless you go months without allowing your computer to stay awake, or running the tasks manually (there are a number of freeware utilities that make this easy), then you don't have to worry. The logs can get a bit large, but with modern hard drives, you're not likely to ever notice.
i read that i shyould be completely draining the battery at least once a week or something...?
Not correct. You do want to run the battery down to where the computer goes to sleep so that the power manager is calibrated, but once a week is far too often and will reduce the life of your battery. Once a month is the most I'd recommend, and once every couple of months would probably be adequate. For more information on managing your battery, see:

Crash when opening Mobile account for the first time

I have some issue with my client mobile account I have set up on theMacMini server and on the MacBook Pro client. Actually I was never able to open completely the mobile account on the client (i.e. it crashes after synchronization between client & server and prior opening the account: it freezes on the "sky&stars" screen).
First of all, I created the (empty) mobile account on the server and then on the client (also empty).
Next, I copied my local account on the client to the mobile account on the client.
Following step was the synchronization between both mobile accounts - and here I'm.
Some details:
local account: Paul-admin - home directory: Paul
mobile account on the client: PaulM - home directory: palm
mobile account on the server: PaulM - home directory: palm
To make a copy of the local account to the mobile one (both on the client machine) via Terminal:
cp -r /users/Paul/ /Users/palm/
To correct the permissions:
chown -R PaulM /Users/palm
Have I missed anything or did I something wrong ?

Some discovered complementary information:
This "freeze" happens only when the client MBP is connected to the server via my LAN. If I disconnect the client, I can open the mobile account without any issue. Also, this mobile account is under parental control, even if I didn't specify this parameter in any server menu and when I change it on the client, it comes back after the synchronisation. Any idea ?

Which application should I use to open Firefox 4 for the first time?

I want to update my Firefox 3.6.15 to Firefox 4. When I click on the "Download Firefox 4" icon, a window opens and asks me what application I wish to use to open Firefox 4. I have no idea!

You can save the DMG file for Mac to the desktop and install the Firefox application.

Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?

Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.

Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem. Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source. Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all. In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
Is there any help for this affliction?

Just used my FaceTime for the first time, and my audio kept cutting in and out.? Why is it doing that? Or what's causing it? HELP!

I tried facetiming for the first time and my audio kept cutting in and out.. WHY!? It was so annoying. Does anyone know what might be the problem? Connection? Thanks!

Do you have a Corp. Exchange account on your phone? I ask, because the requirement to encrypt an iPhone backup can be enforced by a profile installed on your phone when setting up the Exchange account.

My Mail app opens unprompted everytime i reboot or awake my macbook pro from sleep. This was not an issue until i shut down my laptop for the first time in a while 2 days ago. ANy ideas how to stop this?

I recently shut down my MacBook Pro for the first time in a long time. SInce then, everytime i reboot or awake my laptop from sleep, the Mail app opens unprompted causing my computer to slow down incredibly, and some apps to freeze. I have no idea how to stop this or why it even started doing this. Any ideas on how to get it to stop? Thanks!

I have this problem too with my Macbook Air. Mail opens automatically every time my laptop sleeps. I actually just asked about this in my own thread. However, it is not causing my apps to freeze.

For the first time, I downloaded a podcast in the podcast app by clicking on the cloud icon. Now, every single play button for all of my podcast episodes is grayed out. Why can't I play any of my podcasts any more?

When I open my MacBook Pro for the first time each day, I find condensation on the glass. What can I do to prevent the condensation?

When I open my MacBook Pro for the first time each day, I find condensation on the glass. What can I do to prevent the condensation?

This thread and all the followups are hilarious, if it weren't such a serious problem. OP, you may want to add a bit more information on how this drippy screen problem occurs: where do you live, what are the weather conditions, what are you doing with the Mac when it occurs, etc.
Yes, extreme moisture, to the extent of causing visible condensation, is Very Bad News for any electronic device, and more so with one that isn't tropicalized like the Mac. Besides trying to avoid subjecting it to such extreme temperature changes, using some kind of desiccant to absorb close range moisture and avoidint its use until it dried out, I can suggest placing some kind of absorbent material between the display and the keyboard to prevent the moisture on the glass from finding its way into the computer. Like the protective poliethylene foam protector that came with the Mac when new. Or something like RadTech's ScreenSavrz: http://www.radtech.us/Products/NotebookScreenSavrz.aspx

Updated to iOS 7, when my phone came on for the first time I could see I had 2 new viber messages. When I went to open viber it asked me to register my number, which I did. Once the app was open I noticed all my message history was gone.

Hi,
I have only just upgraded to iOS 7 on my iPhone 4 and am having a problem with Viber. When my phone came on for the first time after the update I could see I had 2 new viber messages, when I went to open viber it asked me to register my number, which I did. Once the app was open I noticed all my message history was gone...
I still have an itunes backup of my phone just before the update, I restored it to this backup, followed the same process and now viber will not even work (the access code wont sms to me and the phone call option for recieving this code also come up with some error about not being able to do this at this time).
I have been able to access viber using another phone number (I have two sims which I use as I am currently overseas in south korea, my referenced australian sim has worked previously on viber overseas and I definently do have roaming on) but again I have no message history.
So to questions:
1) Why is my activation not working under my referenced australian number?
2) Can I recover all my message history which should be saved in my itunes backup? I am willing to revert to this backup state again if needed.
Please help.
Thanks.

Look iTunes>Preferences>Devices...is a backup listed for your iPhone 5 dated BEFORE you restored your iPhone 4 backup to your iPhone 5? If not, your data is gone. If there is a backup, on your iPhone 5: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. You should now be able to restore that backup, if it exists, to your iPhone 5.

For the first time, I'm trying to use adobe premiere elements 10 that came with my pc Windows 8. I created a single project, saved it but cannot open it. My pc shows the file I created but I get an error message that says this type file is not supported or the codex is not installed. As a test, I created another very small project and get the same error message, when I try to open it. Pls give me a simple answer, a refund or a phone

mike frischenmeyer
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 10 running on? And, what video card/graphics card does that computer use?
Is this the first time you are using Premiere Elements 10 or have you worked with it before successfully? There is no easy solution until we
know the details and troubleshoot to determined what caused the problem.
1. Can you open a new project?
2. After you saved/closed the problem project, did you move, delete, or rename any of the files/folder that were related to the source media
for that project?
3. Please review the Adobe document on troubleshooting damaged projects.
Troubleshoot damaged projects | Adobe Premiere Elements
4. What are the steps that you are using to reopen this saved closed project.
a. File Menu/Open Project/Name of Project
b. Other
Please review and consider and then we can decide what next based on your further details and results..
Thank you.
