Why doesn't Goodreader appear in the "Open In" menu for attachments in Mail?

When I activate the "Open In" menu for an attachment in Mail, several applications appear, but not Goodreader.  But Goodreader's documentation says that the "Open In" menu is one way to transfer files into Goodreader.  ???

I opened the attachment in Noterize (one of the ten apps on the list).  But the "Open In" menu in Noterize is the same as the list in Mail, except that it has only nine apps (missing Noterize itself, of course).  Since none of these is GoodReader, this is no solution.  So, I deleted three of the other apps (which I no longer use) that are on the "Open In" list and restarted the iPad.  Now, the "Open In" list has a different set of ten apps, but still none of them is GoodReader (nor DropBox).
I checked several functions in GoodReader (upload, download, annotate), and all are working fine.
"Don't Open Anything" is "Off."
I deleted three more rarely used apps that appear in the "Open In" list, checked the list in Mail again (no restarts) and found that the replacement apps on the list now include both GoodReader and DropBox!  Seems that the limit is ten apps and I have no control over which ones appear.  I hope I don't ever need to reinstall any of the apps I deleted to get to this point.
Thanks to all for the help.  Perhaps Apple will give us control over the "Open In" list in a future upgrade of iOS.

  • How can I make Quicktime Player 7 appear in the "Open With" menu?

    Well, the subject says it all, I think.
    I have installed SL, and now I want Quicktime Player 7 to appear in the right-click menu "Open With".
    I have tried to rebuild the launch services database like this:
    /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
    But to no avail.

    I got curious and checked a couple of things with right click. Some items show QT7 as an option, some don't. One .mov file that didn't had as the default ( ! ) something called "QuickTime Player Launcher" so I went ahead and used that to see what would happen, and QT7 did indeed launch and play the movie. Yet another .mov file that showed "QT Player Launcher" and no QT7 turned out to open in QTX. The first one was made in Leopard, the second was made in Snow Leopard using QTX screen capture. Other older .mov files with the "QT Player Launcher" default open in QTX. I remain baffled by a LOT of the behavior with QT7 and QTX.

  • Why are there duplicate results in the Open With menu?

    I own an iMac with the latest version of OSX (I forget what it is). As you can see in this image, I am going to open an image using the Open With menu, and there are a lot of repeats. In addition to the repeats, some apps show up that no longer exist and some apps don't show up that still do exist. For example, I no longer have RockMelt on my operating system. I also don't have the version of Pixelmator listed: I trashed that version and installed a different version, but when I click on Pixelmator in the menu, it reverts to Preview because that version of Pixelmator no longer exists. This is a minor issue but it is really bothering me because whenever I want to open Pixelmator, I have to go through the whole process of clicking Other and browsing my applications folders to get to it. Any help would be EXTREMELY appreciated and I would reward you with imaginary cookies (Yum!).
    Seriously though, I need help.

    Boot in safe mode. This will cause certain caches maintained by the system to be rebuilt.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot than normal.
    When the login screen appears, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and test. There's no need to log in while in safe mode.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.

  • Why does a box appear under the pointer with words for the last tab clicked on?

    When I am searching for something I get to a site and the pointer can be anywhere and then a small box appears under the pointer with words for the last tab clicked on. If I move the pointer the box disappears and then reappears at the new location. How can I stop that from happening??

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • The "Open With" menu for PDF files has 19 apps listed to choose from.

  • Why doesn't ANYTHING appear in the firefox window when i open it?

    Firefox opens up EMPTY. Black screen. Minimize/Expand/Close buttons still there. Nothing else. Clicking in the upper portion reveals that the buttons still EXIST but if i say, found "options" and clicked it, i get a new and utterly useless popup window. (all black, again, just mini/close option)
    Fix this? Otherwise urging my client to permanently switch to chrome (and billing anyway! woohoo!)
    Thanks

    hello mattinitus, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)
    in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to the system, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

  • Paralles and the "open with" menu

    Can anyone advise me on how to remove PC applications installed in Parallel
    appearing in the "open with" menu within osx.
    With most files there is no problem, but using open with in Mail gives a list of
    apps and no idea which ones are OSX apps or PC apps.
    Thanks in advance

    I was under the impression that one reason to use Parallels rather than bootcamp was precisely for that reason, that one can run apps in both systems at the same time.
    If a file can be opened with either XP or Leopard apps, then it seems to me both should show up in the "open with" list since they are both available.
    With Parallels, XP is just one more app running in Leopard, AFAIK.
    If you can exclude Parallels from SpotLight search and then rebuild the data base it might work.

  • How do I manage the "open in" menu?

    How do I manage the "open in" menu?
    I know it's limited to 10 apps.

    You really can't manage it. Thre is no feature or settings that allows you to manage it. As you use Open In on the iPad, the compatible apps for that file type will appear in the Open In menu. The more that you choose a certain app for the file type, the faster it will move up to the top of the list - IIRC.
    Other than that, there is no way to control it or remove or add apps in the Open In menu.

  • I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5.  When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different.  Why doesn't it appear edited?

    I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5.  When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different.  Why doesn't it appear edited?

    People who have Photoshop, but don't have Lightroom, need ACR so that they can use Raw files. Without ACR they could do nothing with those (they may also like having ACR so that they can work on other kinds of image using the same kinds of adjustments and techniques, as are used with Raw files).
    People who have Lightroom, can get access to Raw files regardless whether ACR is present or not. They can use Lightroom on other kinds of image also, using the same methods. LR can pass images directly into Photoshop without passing via ACR (or else does so transparently, which amounts to substantially the same thing).
    ACR does not, strictly speaking, even need to be installed for this external editing to happen. In fact, not even PS needs to be - since a different image editor can be used instead, while still retaining the Adobe Raw conversion etc.
    Lightroom "subcontracts out" specialised external tasks, in this workflow, but is still your "main contractor": the image is otherwise located, viewed, managed, adjusted/presented and output entirely using LR.
    So IMO we can divide image processing into:
    operations that involve pixels and layers and layer masks and adjustment layers etc (of the kind done inside Photoshop)
    operations that involve parametric edits (of the kind done in ACR where you are not using a Lightroom based workflow; otherwise, done inside Lightroom)
    When PS is called in, that's because those tasks are impossible or unsuitable to do in Lightroom. But those tasks can't be done in ACR either - by definition, since LR and ACR have exactly the same image processing "feature set".
    Lightroom is irrelevant to the Bridge + ACR + PS workflow. This workflow requires both your PS and your ACR to be current enough, to support your Raw format etc.
    ACR and Bridge are irrelevant to the LR + (image editor) workflow. It is in this case, only LR which needs to be current enough to support your Raw format etc.

  • Closed base Document appears in the open item list

    Hi all,
    While we are fully copying a base document to a target document, the base document header and rows will be closed, but it will appear in the open item list report.
    So the customer has created a Sales Order -> Delivery -> A/R Invoice.
    The Sales Order document status gives 'Closed', but still appears in the Open Item list (Sales - AR --> Sales Reports --> Open Items List).
    The customer using: SBO2005A PL22
    Further i also have looked in the SAP Notes (Note 1083366) but i can't solved it.
    Thanks in advance.

    Chief,
    In open items list of sales order,
    *select reqd. sales order,net amount,tax & total amount open in
    sales order,
    also open delivery document & compare with it,
    there must be difference in tax total/total/they
    must have changed quantity,unit price,date,changed payment terms/tax codes which causes delivery created without reference to sales order.
    That's why sales order is open.
    You can manaully close sales order by Data-->Close.

    What is "Adobe XI" - Reader, or Acrobat?
    But either way, 'Save as Adobe PDF' is a Word function, independent of what Adobe software you have installed.

    If the above doesn't work, try a reset.
    1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together)
    2. For about 10 seconds
    3. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)
    4. Ignore the red slider
