• Finder keep it open the file even after I change the default folder

  I have the problem with the default folder in the finder.

  A few months ago, I changed the default folder from the finder to a specific folder. Now, I want to change to the new folder. I already go to finder > Preferences > General > new poster finder window and change the folder, but whenever I click on the finder on the dock for the first time, keep the change back to the old folder. What should I do with this?

  Thank you for the help

  HI there Alia80,

  Looks like you set your Finder preferences to open a specific folder when you open a new window, but it seems to keep coming back to what it was previously set to. I would first start safe mode and if some system-level caches can be erased, and a check disk and repair is done automatically:

  Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning

  Follow these steps to start in safe mode.

  1. Start or restart your Mac.
  2. As soon as you hear the startup tone, hold down the SHIFT key.
  3. Release the SHIFT key when you see the logo Apple appears on the screen.

  After the Apple logo appears, this may take longer than usual to reach the login screen or your office. This is because your Mac performs a check of directory of your drive to boot in safe mode.

  To leave safe mode, restart your computer without pressing any keys during startup.

  Once you log in safe mode, let him by making a normal restart and test the issue again.

  If it persists after this test this point in a new admin on your computerand user let me know what is happening there:

  OS X El Capitan: set up users on your Mac.

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

• Open the files on Mac (Fusion 5)?

  I use parallel Desktop for 2 years, but decided to try VMWare Fusion after running into a few problems of stability with the Mountain Lion. So far, he has been pretty good, but I wonder if the merger does not have some features of Parallels.

  On Parallels, I could open a Word document or an Excel worksheet with Office on my VM or in Office 2011 on my Mac in 'right click' and selecting 'Open with' a program for Mac that is on the list. 5 merger there similar functionality? I still have the Mac programs see the upward in the context menu, but if I select the option nothing happens. I selected the checkbox "Open your Windows and web links using Mac applications files" tab by default Applications.

  Take a look at: Sharing Applications between your Mac and your virtual Windows Machines

  Note: even if the link above is the topic in the VMware Fusion 5.0 Documentation Center Online however it is also available from the application VMware Fusion itself via the Help menu!

  Deleted file recovery can recover incomplete files, i.e. the part of these files may be missing.  Recover deleted files is much more reliable if recovery of a backup, instead of using recovery software.

  These things depend on the operating system and the file system.

  One thing, you can see: open one of these files damaged with a text editor, and then make sure that the constant % PDF is somewhere in the first 1024 bytes.

• I have windows vista and when I click on a shortcut on the desktop I have a pop up asking what file to open it with. In order to open the file I find the actuall file.

  Original title: registry exe problem

  I have windows vista and when I click on a shortcut on the desktop I have a pop up asking what file to open it with. In order to open the file I find the actuall file. This also occurs when you download the software, which makes it difficult, because the file is not on the pc yet. All solutions?

  Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

  If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

  You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

  Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

  I hope this helps. Good luck.

• How to open the file? Many types of files, check the type and call app to open it.

  or if this device have any application can open the file. Then, it will show you an alter.

  like dropbox app.

  Please help me.

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  For above 4.3 and higher, you can use API call to achieve this. In regards to my understanding, it works as follows (Please correct if I am wrong).

  -All files (PDF, excel etc) readers save with BONE graft as "I am able to open the file whose mime the type XXX.

  - So, when you pass the path to the API Invocation, it searches for reader app there is place and request that you open the file. (I know not if more a reader installed in the device that achieved reference)

  Here's the code that worked for me,

  Invocation invocation = new  Invocation();
  invocation.setAction(ContentHandler.ACTION_OPEN);
  Registry registry = Registry.getRegistry("");
  registry.invoke(invocation);
  

  If none of the application saved in the requested file format it then throws the exception.

  Another option is to pass the path to the browser by using the private API to display the files...

  Let me know if it works for you...

  Thank you

  Choose one of the tif image in the finder. Click the right mouse button (or ctrl + mouse so have a button) and then choose 'Open with' and then choose 'other '.... "then the dialog box will appear. Check always 'open with' and open the image. And I hope that it will work with the other, because on a single computer, which is works, but another doesn't (don't know why).

• How can I open the file ASHX on Vista 64 - bit PC

  I downloaded an ASHX file on the internet and my PC Vistia 64 bit does not recognize.  How can I open the file?

  Hello

  File with the extension to ASHX file is an ASP.NET Web Manager.

  ASHX files are files used with the ASP.NET programming and can be opened with any program code in ASP.NET (like Microsoft Visual Web Developer). ASHX files are not intended to be read or opened by the browser. If you have downloaded a file ASHX and expecting that it contains information (such as a document or other recorded data), it is likely that something is wrong with the website and instead of generating usable information, she provided this file server instead.

  You can search on the Internet a program that can open this file.

  Hello

  A file with FXR and FXM file extensions is a Document received from WinFax.

  You can open the FXR and FXM file by double clicking on it and let your PC decide which default application should open the file.   If no program opens, the FXR and FXM file, then you have probably an installed application that can view and/or edit FXR and FXM files.

  You can use a Notepad or another text editor to open these files.  Number of files is files read-only, which means little matter file extension, a text editor may be able to view the contents of the file properly.  This may or may not be the case with FXR and FXM files, but it's worth a try.
