opening wps. files

When you try to open a wps. file, I inadvertently said to always use the wordpad program to open it.  Now it gives me no other options of program to use to open it.  Is there something I can do?

Hello

Define your main program associations, and then you can edit any type of file to the correct program.

    Hello Fahey, welcome.

    If you are running Microsoft Office 2003 Vista, this addon provided by Microsoft will allow you to open WPS files created in Works v6-9. If you run Office 2007, this addon may not work, but its worth by train.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=BF41401E-70FA-465D-AE2E-CF44DBF05297&displaylang=en

    Download and install. Furthermore, if this does not work, you can try this:

    1. create a backup of the file WPS (basically copy and paste it in another folder)
    2. go to: http://www.zamzar.com/
    3. follow the instructions to convert the file online

    Let us know if it works,

    Thank you!

    How to open a file downloaded microsoft word to macos sierra

    You should just be able to double-click on it since OS X built a decompression software. But unless you are sure that the source of the MS Word file is safe and secure, be careful, because a typical method of malware distribution is through such files.

  • Safari 10 not not automatically opening PDF files

    Yes, I have the box checked in the preferences to automatically open reliable files after downloading. I have tried many different websites PDF files now, and none of them does not open automatically.

    I tried to delete the preferences of Safari, but that did not help.

    Does anyone else have this problem?

    For security reasons, I don't have Safari 10: preferences: general Panel: Open Safe files after downloading verified. It has nothing to do with the opening of PDF documents in the browser, as it is the function of the OS X Internet plugin default to this end, or the option in Adobe Acrobat Reader PDF plug-in.

    Plug-in Adobe Reader is disabled by default in the 10 Safari: preferences: Security Panel: Internet Plug-ins. You will need to activate it via the plugin settings - if you use it, but with a WARNING WARNING like Safari 10 notes that there are security issues that you can, or perhaps are not willing to accept.

    With Adobe Reader Plug - in disabled Internet, 10 Safari automatically opens a PDF Web site in the browser. There are no preferences special setting to enable this default behavior.

    What happens if you try to open one without iTunes? That has really nothing to do at all with iTunes?  If this isn't the case, then you would probably get a wider range of people experienced with problems of general network on a forum for you use the version of the system.

  • Is no longer able to open pdf files in mail, Yosemite 10.10.5 in mail 8.2

    Hello

    After trying to install the 2016-004 security update 10.10.5 I'm more able to open pdf files in the yosemite in 8.2 mail or on our hard drive.

    When you try to install the update, we get the following message:

    "Updates available have changed."

    • We can install is more up-to-date, even if we downloaded.

    • Sent PDF files can only be opened by mail on our iMac

    • This has also affected all PDFs, saved the e-mail to the iMac.

    • All PDFs in mail over the past four years cannot be open-ended.

    • All PDFs over the past four years, saved from mail hard disk cannot be opened by any PDF reader, including preview and Adobe Acrobat.

    Any help appreciated

    Anthony

    Try to install the update mode without failure or another account admin user. If it works, check if you still have the PDF problem. If so, try what is displayed below links Safe Mode.

    Safe mode - subject

    Safe mode - Yosemite

    Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

    Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in the system Prefeences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

    Isolate a problem by using a different user account

    If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

    If it works in safe mode, try to run this program when it is started normally, copy and paste the result in a response. The program was created by Etresoft, a regular contributor.  Use please copy and paste the screenshots can be difficult to read. On the screen with the Options, please open Options and tick the boxes in the bottom 2 before the race. Click on the button "Report share" in the toolbar, select "Copy to Clipboard" and then paste into a response. This will show what is running on your computer. No personal information is shown.

  • Prevent the app to open the window to open the file

    Everytime I open applications like QuickTime and preview, the window open a file keeps popping up. How can I stop this from happening? Thank you in advance!

    It's because he doesn't know what file do you want to display. The only way to avoid this is to open the file, and if the preview is not the default, then click right and in the menu, choose Preview. It is the same with TextEdit, and many other applications.
