• Download a file should implement an option to open the file or save it - for some reason any now just downloading it straight to the download folder. Why? Problem with Firefox or something else?

  Download a file would normally bring up an option to open the file with the appropriate program or save it - for some reason any now just downloading it straight to the download folder. Why? Problem with Firefox or something else? It is very frustrating - sometimes, you want the first opened file so it can be discarded or stored in a different location.

  Find the type of file in the Firefox -> Options -> Applications Panel, open its menu drop-down and select 'ask '. To reset all the actions of download, delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in your Firefox profile folder (or rename the mimeTypes.rdf X if you want to save as a backup). The file will be regenerated with all types of files, restore the default actions.

  For more information, see application Panel - set how Firefox handles different file types and change what Firefox does when you click on or download a file .

• Import options and open the file freeze

  When I click any option import (merge with Word, HTM, XPJ), the browser window does not open to allow me to select files.  This happens on all import options.

  RoboHelp screen freezes and I get an error sound when I click on another option.  This forces me to press ESC to continue.

  The same error occurs when I use the option to Open the file of the RoboHelp started.  If I use Windows Explorer to locate the project, I can open it.  If I click Open the file, I get the same screen freeze and no browser.

  I'm working through the VPN.  Import works fine when I'm logged on the server of the company in the office.

  Y at - it an option or a setting that I can choose to activate the file opened, Import > Word, Import > HTM or merge options via VPN?  I tried several login options and reviewed by security and installation of Windows files.  I'm totally stuck.

  I use Office 2010 and RoboHelp 10; our firm uses Subversion, but the files are retrieved correctly.

  As I said, I can import Office when it is connected to the network.

  If anyone has experienced this before?

  Hello

  Perhaps is that the window is in an area that can not be displayed!

  Try this. When the window does not appear, press in and hold the Windows logo key, then press on maybe button arrow left a couple of times. See if the window is perhaps hidden and appears in the display.

  See you soon... Rick

• How to change the view options when opening a file?

  For some reason any in CS5 when I choose open default file to view "list" in Windows XP. I put my windows, so they all have the same point of view (detailed view) in the control panel. CS3 opens in view Details, but all programs in all of the default CS5 platform to the list view. Any thoughts on how to change this? Anyone else noticed this? Thank you!

  Near as I can tell, after doing a bunch of research on the Internet, always default list view dialog box in Windows XP.  Apparently the changes have been made to Vista to remember the last setting, but which does not apply to XP.

  I couldn't find all the config settings or anywhere registry tweaks that would change the behavior of file open dialog to set up view details by default.

  I, however, ran through a downloadable freeware utility called 'FileOpenPatcher' who patched the commdlg32.dll file in Windows XP ONLY , so you will see more columns of information by default in the Windows File-Open dialog boxes.  I tested it with Photoshop Elements, I had installed on a Windows XP virtual machine.  Apparently he sticks some values in the DLL to change values by default, and it seems to work on XP SP3.

  It requires a reboot after installation.

  Now, that's what I see after execution of FileOpenPatcher, when I choose file - open:

• Executable - only option is save file - there is no option to open the file

  When I download an executable file, for example the last AVG, the only option that allowed me is to save the file I want to open automatically it will run after the download

  Firefox is not a 'Run' or 'Open' default option. Reason is when you 'Run' or 'Open' an executable file (.exe or .com, for example) to the internet, your AV/AS application has no option to examine it until it is installed on your system. If you save the file on your hard disk, your AV/tel THAT the system then has the opportunity to review it for malware before it is installed on your system >

  If you insist, and accept the risk noted above, you can install the following:

• No option to save the file, type of content/file missing in the list of Applications

  I want to be able to click on a link to a file and have the option to open the file with a specified application.

  When you click on the file I want to open with a specified application, I get a save or cancel the option.

  It worked. It no longer works. It is not a problem with the Web site. I need to know where in FF settings I can change that.

• I want an option to open or save a download

  With Firefox 20.0 I don't get the window 'Open with' or 'save' when I click on a file to download. I want the option to open the file automatically. I know that the new download the toolbar button is there, but that adds a few steps to open a file. Any options?

  If this applies to all files, in the Options window, general Panel, always choose "ask me where to save files.

  • Startup, homepage, tabs and download settings

  If this applies to only specific file types, make sure that the corresponding download action is not set to "Save the file" in the window Options, Applications Panel.

  Hello

  I have a loop and data acquisition and I want to write data to a file.

  What is the best option: to open the file once, at the beginning of the acquisition and to close when it's done, to open and close it whenever I write a line on the file or do something else?

  If there is no better option, I would like to understand the positive and negative points of each option.

• How to open .iso files

  Mr President, I have already extracted file .iso downloaded format .zip, I tried these files but I cuold not performed this task files downloaded in the form of a ZIP file. The ZIP file contains a large number of files and folders, and I don't know how to cope because the videos on Youtube showed it should be only one file in the format ISO. Instead, I open the ZIP file in folders like the boot, efi, source, support... autorun.inf, bootmgr and setup.exe files.

  PL. Solve my problem. PL. Guide me new steps to install the .iso file / files

  Hello

  To help you better, I would like to know what the content inside of the. ISO format disk is.

  An ISO file contains an image of a disc. That means that it contains all the files and folders that have been on this disc, a bit like a .zip or .cab file contains a collection of files and folders. The real difference is that the ISO is a copy of the byte to byte of low-level data actually stored on a disk.

  The best option to open the files inside of the. ISO is to burn the file on a DVD or a CD and once done that, you should be able to open the content in the files.

  Hope the helps of information. Let us know if you need more assistance. We will be happy to help you.

  Thank you.

• I used to be able to open a file by drag-and - drop on the CC photoshop it. It doesn't work anymore...

  After updating my Photoshop CC my drag - déposer option to open a file no longer works! I loved this feature! What should I put in my preferences to fix this... or maybe it's a problem they need to fix? I use an apple powerbook. Someone please help.

  It works for me. Try a reset preference: press and hold down Cmd + Opt + shift (Mac) and run Photoshop. Select 'Yes' when asked if you want to continue with reset.

• No option to save/open Pages files to the hard drive

  In the Pages on my MacBook Pro, I can access only now the iCloud.

  If I want to open a file, it only gives me those in the cloud, no way to navigate to those recorded on the real MBP.

  If I want to save a file, it only gives me the ability to save in the cloud, not for the real MBP.

  I checked "Help", which only says: choose "save under" and choose the folder. Who don't show up with two problems 1) no "Save as" in the menu more and 2) no way to choose any place other than the cloud.

  I had a quick glance at all parameters which seemed even vaguely be connected to Pages, but found nothing useful either. I have no idea if or what I changed in the first place.

  Naturally, I don't want or need to save ALL my files on a cloud. So, how can I teach Pages to simply do what I want?

  The following example was made with v5.6.2 on OS X 10.11.5 Pages.

  When you save a document, Pages remembers this location for the next open or save operation. The default open view will probably look like this in iCloud Drive: folder Pages. If you click on this Pages - iCloud selector, you can see the locations of the other folders. Choose one and then click on new Document.

  

  If you click on that left most button on the open Panel, it will hide the left panel of Favorites and give you this point of view even more disconcerting:

  

  You have a few choices to save a document. The first thing you need to do when you create a new document is to select the file menu: Save... and choose a location to save it under one name other than Untitled.pages. This will start the automatic backup (about every 15 seconds locally) and also the version back to history. There is also a facilitator Option key for the file that changes menu duplicate in save under... The default save Pages panel is minimalist and can cause some confusion over available save slots.

  

  Again, you can develop the where: selector to choose a local drive location, or you can click on the arrow pointing downwards in the annotation of the red circle. When you do this, a much larger window appears with the familiar left from the Favorites panel, and to choose a new save location. Once you have done this, you can also choose to make a new folder in this location to save and by clicking on the "Save" button, your document is placed in the folder that you just created.

• I set firefox to open a file type (.) SGF) w / a program, but it doesn't, so I put it to save/apply and no work option, it always opens file link in a new tab.

  I went into Options and set the. SGF with Smartgo open file. He refuses to do. Clicking on a link to one. SGF file simply open the file as a text in a new tab.

  Given that it did not work, I tried to get firefox to download instead, because then I can open it using the window file type associations. It will not download the file, unless I actually do a right-click and save-as in the link.

  It is tedious when displaying a lot of these files. I even put it to wonder after seeing the download option did not work. He don't ask me. What happens here?

  Also, I use firefox 23

  EDIT: It seems to be the specific Web site. Some sites will allow me the option to open it in Smartgo, others just it open in a tab in the form of text. What is causing this gap and can it be overcome thanks to the browser settings?

  A sample Web site to highlight the issue is:
  http://igokisen.Web.FC2.com/WR/LG.html
  clicking on one of these links will not download, open, or ask questions about what you want to do with the file.

  What happens if the server sends the file as text/plain.
  You can see if you open "tools > Page Info > general": Content-Type: text/plain

  Sent files that this way is always open in a tab.

• I can't and never been able to open a file that was previously saved on hard disk by selecting the print option to get in the print dialog box

  I can not and never been able to open a file that was previously saved on hard disk by selecting the print option to get in the print dialog box. Firefox displays gooblygook, even if the name of file is an html element, the Notepad of Windows crashes, MS Excel does not recognize the file type. MS Word also displays goobblys when the file has no file extension.

  If you use the file printing, then you will get a file that is supposed to be sent to a printer, and this file has any sort of code formatting for this printer.

  Open such a file in Firefox or a text editor can only work if you use one printer for text to print the file to, then make sure that such a printer is installed and selected.
