You have chosen to open which is a: application/octet-stream error
I have been getting his error for a very long time now:
you have chosen to open (web address here) which is a: application/octet-stream ehat should firefox do with this file? open - save
i got this from firefox 3, i tried completely uninstalling it, and then reinstalling it
and the same thing happens in firefox 4, which i just uninstalled firefox 3 and did a clean install of firefox 4
it happens randomly and periodically, it seems each new session resets the warnings, and when i click on about 35% of the websites in my speeddial, it will load that warning and a blank tab, after i click the speeddial again, it will work for that site, for the rest of the session..
it seems completely random, sometimes its google.com, sometimes mozilla.com, it could really be anything..
it could be a website in my speeddial, but it also happens sometimes when typing from the address bar
i have done extensive spyware sweeps, and antivirus sweeps for anything out of the ordinary, and i even repaired Windows XP SP2, and then I even upgraded to Windows XP SP3, i have all the updates, etc..
I have 2 computers on this network, and they both do it.
its really driving me crazy.. i even thoght about wiping my entire hard drive and reinstalling XP, but i dont want to do that
i tried IE8, but i hated the lack of speedials and tab options
and I tried Opera but i hated the fact that there were no multiple speedial tabs
and im not fond of chrome or safari for similar reasons..
i've tried a few things i've found online, but nothing really applies to this problem
does anyone have any idea how to fix this so i can keep using firefox?
thanks
Show us the output of
emctl status dbconsoleMost of the times, EM stops with DGCP being enabled on the system after the db's creation. I faced alot of it just 2 days ago when 2 of my boxes stopped EM. So show us the output of the above command and to have an idea of basic EM troubleshooting, read this,

Hi Firefox
After I have finished downloading a file the Mozilla Download page appears.
I right click the download to open it and the 'You Have Chosen To Open' box appears in the bottom right hand corner of the screen with the 'radio button' already selected to 'Open with..
All this so far is perfectly normal.
However if I click on the 'Browse' button to make a choice then the title at the top of the box, the closing 'cross' and the 'OK' button have all faded to grey and are inoperable.
Furthermore the whole Firefox page is frozen/crashed and can't be closed.
I have no further options than to restart the PC.
I have tried various suggestions I have found on your forums including deleting cookies, turning off the hardware accelerator, and I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox 12.
I have looked at your 'Troubleshooting Information' and it does show a graphics driver problem. However my driver is the lastest nVidia driver for my GeForce FX5200 card and it has worked fine with firefox 12.
WebGL RendererBlocked for your graphics driver version. Try updating your graphics driver to version 257.21 or newer.
GPU Accelerated Windows0. Blocked for your graphics driver version. Try updating your graphics driver to version 257.21 or newer.
Here is the specification of my computer:
MSI K8N Neo motherboard (N1996 MS-7030 VER:1),
an AMD Athlon (tm) 64 processor 3200+ (Socket 754)
3GB of RAM.
It has at present a NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 graphics card.
The system is running Windows XP Professional 32bit with SP3 and all drivers are up to date.
I have used Firefox for many years and would not use anyone else browser ever!
I have not had a problem until now. I do hope you can help me.
Kind Regards
ChrisDear mha007 Your brilliant! Now I have the correct terms it was the 'Opening' box that was freezing and it was the 'Choose Helper Application' that couldn't be accessed.
However I followed the instructions which I have cut n' pasted below and I am sure it was the 'renaming' of the rdf file that put things right.
Thank you very much I am very grateful. Kindest Regards Chris
'''''''Reset download actions for all file types
To reset how all file types are handled by Firefox back to default:
Open your profile folder:
At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button, go over to the Help menu (on Windows XP, click on the Help menu) and select Troubleshooting Information. The Troubleshooting Information tab will open.
Under the Application Basics section, click on Open Containing Folder. A window with your profile files will open.
Note: If you are unable to open or use Firefox, follow the instructions in Finding your profile without opening Firefox.
At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (File menu in Windows XP) and then click Exit.
Rename the mimeTypes.rdf file to mimeTypes.rdf.old .
Restart Firefox. ''''''' -

Repeated "You have chosen to open: JuniperSetupClientInstaller.exe
I have just downloaded Firefox. When I first opened it, I got the dialog box "You have chosen to open: JuniperSetupClientInstaller.exe
At the question "Would you like to save this file?", I chose Save File.
So far so good ... except, every time I open Firefox I get exactly the same dialog box.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

I have deleted the file in my downloads folder. I searched in the start button pop up for the name and deleted it from there also. I have searched online but found nothing relating to this. Does anyone know how to get rid of it. I'm hesitant to uninstall and reinstall the browser...You can check the value of the browser.newtab.url pref on the <b>about:config</b> page.
Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

Keep getting a popup 'you have chose to open search' doesn't happen in ie
problem started after enlarging a product picture, since then I keep getting a popup every couple of minutes: you have chosen to open search which is a: application/json from google.co.uk. Saving/opening it does not stop it, scanned it with AVG and search and destroy both returned negative results. Happens in both the most recent versions of Firefox but not in Internet explorer (which I don't want to go back to) The file is 78kb
The popup has subtly changed a few minutes ago and now states: Opening s you have chosen to open s, the rest has stayed the sameFor me, it was FastestFox. The version I have is 4.7.4. Funny thing is it started out of nowhere. No recent updates of add-on or firefox itself.

<Email Edited by Host>They already have your number and/or email address and maybe have sold it several times already to others as well. They also use number generators - software that will automatically create them - some work and some don't, they don't care, they send out millions and a few will fall for it and send them money. The only way to "hide" would be to change both and your password, but then it would happen again at some point.

If you have many tabs open (in my case 30 tabs), you cannot click every single tab with your mouse, you can only reach them by opening the tab list at the right.
You can create a folder with the home pages by using "Bookmark All Tabs" to open a specific page.
You can place that folder on the bookmarks toolbar or use the Bookmarks menu button that you can find in the toolbar palette to get access to that folder easily.
* Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
* "Bookmark All Tabs" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of a tab on the tab bar.
* "Bookmark This Page" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of that browser page. -
Why is it on the photo app is that when you add your photos to new albums and when you are deleting from camera roll it will delete photos from everywhere so therefore once your photos are in the albums you have chosen you cannot delete from camera roll
Your photos are actually all in the Camera Roll. The album you create only contain pointers to these pictures. Albums are like music playlists; when you delete a song from the playlist it doesn't delete the song from your music library. But when you delete a song from your music library it will also be deleted from any playlists that it may have been in as well.

Greetings,
We are using the 7.2.12.04.25 32 bit version of ADI on an IBM P750 machine running AIX 5.3. The Oracle proper application is version 11.5.10 on a 10G database. We have two users that are unable to upload each others spreadsheets but are able to upload their own. A different user is able to upload the spreadsheets created by both of the users that can't upload each others spreadsheets. The ADI settings appear to be the same and the users are selecting the same responsibility. The database properties seem to be the same inside the spreadsheets as well. An option would be to copy the contents of the other person's spreadsheet into one they created and then upload it but that process is too cumbersome to entertain. Has anyone run into and resolved this issue? The error they are seeing is "You have not signed on to the required Applications Database".
Thank you!
ScottDo the users need to sign into the same responsibility to upload a spreadsheet the other created? They are both signed into a GL responsibility but not the same one.
Since they are two different responsibilities then I'd give it a try (ask the other user to login to the same responsibility) and see how it behaves.
Thanks,
Hussein -
You have not signed on to the required Applications Database
I have a user who is trynig to use ADI to upload a journal from Excel.
She receives an error stating "You have not signed on to the required Applications Database"
Any suggestions?
Edited by: user573238 on Nov 5, 2008 8:29 AMThanks for your reply. I read that article. At this point I've tried lots of things to get this to work. This user has multiple ORACLE_HOMES on her PC, with different Oracle versions.
I think the user did try creating a new spreadsheet and pasting the data into it and it did not work. At the time I was not familiar with the Windows Service and the DBC directory with the DBC files in it.
I have copied the files to each Oracle_Home so my next step may be to have the user try using a new spreadsheet and using the cut-paste option.
If I get something to work I'll try to update this thread with what I learned. -
Content [application/octet-stream] found
Do you want to download it to C:\Users\kathy\ ?
'''bold text'''Back up all data.
Check the Mail, Contacts & Calendar preference pane to make sure you're not synchronizing Notes in more than one account.
If you're not, disable Notes synchronization temporarily.
Quit Notes, if it's running.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes
Copy the whole line of text to the Clipboard (command-C).
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return. A Finder window should open with a folder selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop.
The folder you're moving is named "com.apple.Notes" It is not the subfolder named "Data" or anything else.
Re-enable Notes synchronization.
Relaunch Notes and test. If it works now, delete the folder you moved. Otherwise, quit again, and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place.
Caution: If you delete some or all of the contents of the selected folder, but leave the folder itself in place, the application may not launch. Deleting the folder will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
