Hi WilliamHendry,

1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

2. you receive an error message during playback of WMV files?

3. are you able to play other file format music files using Windows media player?

In Windows vista, you will not find Windows media player available in the list of Windows features.

Check and make sure that your computer has all the necessary codecs installed.

    application of windows 8... can I use to open the ram files and how it works

    I think you are talking about the files with a. Extension of RAM. If that is the case, have a read of the information at the link following, be careful, do not click on the buttons of the big 'Download Now' here, they are simply advertisements:

    Real Player is a program that should help you to open these files. You can search and download the Windows Real Player 8 compatible version on their site.

  • Cannot open the WMV files.

    Just bought a new computer and when I try to download a file WMV, Internet Security explore comes up and asks me if I want to allow, click on allow and I get the message: Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.  May not permissions to access you the item.

    When I click Details I get this message: name... Pack\MediaPlayerClassic\mpc-HC.exesource-MPC.HC@SourceForge

    CST: CodecPack\MediaPlayerClassic\mpc-hc.exe

    I found a download for Media player classic, but when I tried to download my antivirus (Kaspersky) came with a warning that the file was not signed and that it was a potentially dangerous download if I did not.

    Would appreciate any help I could get on it.

    Hi ramrod711,

    Welcome to the Microsoft community newsgroups

    Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.  May not permissions to access you the item.

    The question stem also from your security program such Kaspersky or a /Defender of Windows Firewall which can have parameters as to not not to perform certain tasks and does not download the file. I suggest you temporary disable antivirus and firewall and check the result again. You must activate new security that you was disabled programs.

    Important note: Ensure that the download comes from a reliable source and then disable the security software or allow the file to download.

  • Open the JSON file and analyze? (ExtendScript)

    I know that JSON is not integrated in ExtendScript, but even with the lib downloaded, I do not understand how you are supposed to use it?

    If I try to use #include in my file jsx the script stops (Nothing does not load)

    main.jsx

    #include "../js/libs/json2.js"
    alert("this does not trigger! - script halted on line above");
    

    What, then, is the approach here? Send the JS file path to JSX, create a file object and read each line in JSX, displaying the string back to JS file and analyze then?

    Summary

    -JSON - json2.js from the library can be "included" in the main.js file by running evalFile (pathToFile). I guess that it also works in JSX. Thanks to Davide Barranca for we show the way!

    -You can't use #include in the file JSX for Photoshop that it will completely break execution

    -By reading the file, you must do it in a single appointment - no line (see below).

    I read the JSON, incorrectly, that beat JSON.parse)

    For some reason, I got the installation program, the feature that made the reading, to read the file line by line, like this:

    JSX

        file = new File(filePath);
        file.open("r", "TEXT");
        var fileString = "";
        while (!file.eof){
            var line = file.readln();
            if (fileString.indexOf(line) == -1){
                fileString += line;
            }
        }
    
        return fileString;
    

    Which seems to add characters that the parser do not.

    I changed it just as follows the entire file

    JSX

        var scriptFile = File(filePath);
        scriptFile.open('r');
        var content = scriptFile.read();
        scriptFile.close();
    
  • Open the simple file and then CANCEL example

    Can someone please send a simple file open then cancel example VI?  I am trying to open a file to write ASCII text.  I have this job.  Now, I want to take the option "CANCEL" and do NOT write the file, but do the other things I've done.

    Thank you

    Jim

    Well, the dialogue file Express VI has a "canceled" exit - then just use it. You can simply drive a deal structure around your file entries.

    Also, what in the world you try to do with the feedback node, and that inner while loop?

  • After downloading CS6, I try to open the .exe file and I get only a text file.

    I'm on a MacBook Pro and I have followed all the instructions, downloaded the Akamai Download Manager, and then the giant 4.79 GB download began.  When it was over, nothing happened, so I clicked on the DesignWebPremium_CS6_LS16.exe and a file in TextEdit keeps opening.  Without Akamai, no installation, nothing.  Then I clicked on the other file downloaded (giant) and I was prompted to choose an application to open.  I sailed the Akamai NetSession and after a long pause, I git a dialog box telling me that Akamai is unable to open this type of file.  I erased my downloads and re-uploaded a couple of times and continues to be the same thing.

    Hi aslalsdkg,

    Please make sure that you have downloaded the correct file as it seems that you have downloaded the file for Windows.

    The .exe file is intended to be run on Windows. MAC Installer has the .dmg extension

    Try to download the software from the direct links on the page: http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html

    But make sure you follow the instructions mentioned on the page before you start the download.
