I can't open the files with the extension .wmv either... I use Windows XP

When I receive files with file extension wmv I can't open them?  Why?

Hottaye,

Welcome to the Microsoft Answers community.

You use Windows Media Player to access the .wmv file? If this isn't the case, follow these steps:

1. save the WMV file on your disk.

2. then, right click, click on Open withand then click Choose default program.

3. in the open with dialog box, click Windows Media Player, and then click OK.

In case you don't have it:

Windows Media Player download

You receive an error message?  Can you play other .wmv files that you do not receive as an attachment?  In Windows Media Player, play a different file that uses the same extension of file name as the file that you were using when you received the error message. If the other file plays correctly, then you try to play the original file may be damaged.

I can't wait to hear back on your part.

  • Open your files with an extension of certain

    Hey guys,.

    It took a lot and I went through a dozen messages, but none of the solutions worked.

    What I want (seems quite simple):

    When you click on attachents/files with the "abcd" - extension, in

    file system/finder/Explorer type apps

    or

    type of browser/email apps

    Open them with my AIR - App (or ask to list 'open with myapp')

    and give me the path to the file in the (Air-) InvokeEvent, so I can treat the file in my application.

    I wonder if this might not work because of the Simulator or debugging mode.

    Here is the XML of the bar.xml:

       
            application
            The super App
            
                kb_114x114.png
            
            
                bb.action.VIEW
                bb.action.OPEN
                *
                
                
            
        
    

    I tried in several combinations (only the files: / /, only data_: _ / /... aso, application, reader)

    When I run in debugmode,

    NativeApplication.nativeApplication.applicationID returns-> com.mycompany.mysuperapp. Debug

    So I tried too

    
    

    just to be safe. Without success.

    What I am doing wrong?

    Can anyone confirm that it can be done after all - in AIR ?

    Thank you.

    C.

    EDIT:

    true

    It is added, the air - descriptor.xml

    The path is in the call to your app. You can then open the file from this path and analyze XML data. This is the forum of the AIR. Call is the same in all circles, the processing of the invocation is different. Suggesting to navigate the NDK/Cascades forum for more details.

  • Upgrade to C4, C3 removed - now can't open old files with C4 C3

    Hello

    I've been using demo version of C4 and updated today.

    My system automatically open files C4 C3 first decided to remove my C3 sytem.

    Now I can't open any of my old files C3 to C4.  What heppens is C4 says to reformat the project, it can be used in C4 as expected.  The system goes and he does things but no other file is produced. I try to open the original file of the C3 and do the same round loop with no success.

    Please help as I cannot perform the work until I can open the files.

    Thank you, Ellen

    Hello

    Ideally it should work even when the CP3 has been uninstalled.

    You can do the following: -.

    (1) create a new project in CP4 and go to file-> import-> slides and objects and select the cp3 project file.

    (2) but now you are installing cp3 still... Open the old project in cp3 and copy all the slides. Create a new project in cp4 and paste.

    Bravo!

  • How to open a file with an extension of SPD file?

    Hello

    I started a course for which I received some documents in pdf format. I made notes handwritten in a pdf file using my Tablet Samsung Note, I then put in Dropbox to store on my IMAC.

    I then tried to open this file on my IMAC, but received a message that Adobe Reader could not open because the file is not supported, or could have been damaged.

    Any ideas on how I might be able to work around this problem?

    Do I need anything else than "Reader"?

    Comments will be warmly received by the novice user

    concerning

    "not taken in charge, or could have been damaged."

    That's the key. If you use Safari to download a PDF file, it can do so.

    Trash the file SPD. It is not repairable.
    Download the installation program Adobe Reader FULL here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

    Save the DMG to your downloads folder.

    Go to: Mac/HD/Library/Internet Plugins

    Trash the files AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin .

    Empty the trash.

    Download AppZapper (it's a free trial version) and install it.
    Launch the AppZapper, and then drag the Adobe Reader application to the window.

    "Zap" it and nothing else in the window to the trash.

    Empty the trash.

    Install the downloaded DMG drive and re-upload the file SPD.

    I downloaded Adobe camera raw 8.4 so that I can open raw files with pictures taken with the camera Sony a6000.  However, it does not open images in camera raw.  What can I do?

    I suggest you please update Camera Raw 9.1.1: Camera Raw of Adobe Photoshop CC and CS6 Installer

    Once done, launch Photoshop and click Help > about plug-in > Camera Raw.

    I can't open the RAW files from my Nikon D800 (i.e. NEF files).  I use a Mac with Photoshop CS5 and El Capitan 10.11.2 version running.  I get a message that "could not complete your request because the file appears to be a model of camera that is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw.

    And temporarily disable the Gatekeeper by allowing downloads from anywhere, or your installer will be marked as 'damaged' because that CS5 is out before Gatekeeper and is not "signed" that is not approved.

  • I have a Nikon D 810 camera and Photoshop CS5.  I downloaded camera 8.8 Raw and DNG converter.  I can't open the raw (.nef) files, and treat them with the DNG Converter. What's not?

    I have a Nikon D 810 camera and Photoshop CS5.  I downloaded camera 8.8 Raw and DNG converter.  I can't open the raw (.nef) files, and treat them with the DNG Converter. What's not?  Thank you!

    As I said earlier, the DNG Converter works ONLY on files, not on files.

    Do not target the individual files.  Target Of THE FOLDER that contains them.

    Make sure that said FILE DO NOT contain any other files , you have already settled before, or your settings will be eliminated when re-converted to DNG.

    No need to write long explanations.  More messages are, the more chances you have of receiving relevant responses.

  • Is there a way to open the text files with arbitrary extensions?

    As part of the mobile platform iOS, is possible to open arbitrary text files that have an arbitrary extension?  For example, in the course of my work day, I meet regularly with plain text files that have an .out extension.  I'd love to be able to open these simply with iOS notes without renaming them in .txt.  I meet many of them and only need to do this for a few minutes, so take the time to rename them significantly adds both.

    On the desktop a BONE can generally "open with", then choose the application.   I'm looking for the equivalent in iOS.  Please note that to access the files on iOS is not a problem with icloud drive, dropbox, etc..  they just can not be opened easily.   Simple text editor, word processor not full blown.

    You will need a software that can handle the file.

    Usually the file management applications can manage any type of file.  I like the 5 Documents to Readdle, it can open almost anything.

    https://iTunes.Apple.com/us/app/documents-5-file-system-PDF/id364901807?Mt=8

    The equivalent of 'Open with' in the iOS is "open in", 'Share xxx' or even 'Copy To '.

    How to get to it, depends on where the file is located.

    ICloud drive for example, you can do open the file in a specific application by holding your finger on the icon of the file and by selecting more «...» "in the menu that appears, and then selecting"Share point... ". "and finally select an application from the list.
