MacBook Pro :: Can't Open Document And Download Folder
Aug 14, 2010
i have a problem for my macbook pro 15". i cant open the document folder and download folder. i can se inside the folder from the dock folder icon, but i cant click open in finder.(application not responding).
i wait the hole night but same.
I a new to mac. I am trying to open a ".config" file but I get this error message: "There is no default application specified to open the document xxxx". Normally, on a Windows, I would just force open it with notepad as it conly contain text. How do I do the same with a Mac?
I was deleting a file from my screen, and I accidentally removed my Document Folder so it is off my dock. Now next to the dashed lines to make the dock bigger, I only have my Application folder with the trashcan. I have no idea how my Document folder back on!
I can't open protools error could not create a new document because assertion in/volume/ development/w.s.Protools_10.1.2/Altura parts/DFW/MacBuild/../view/umenu.MacOS.mm.line 1351

I was trying to open an existing Numbers document saved to my desktop. It took me to the App Store, but I didn't have access to a Wireless network. If it needed an update, why does it require the update to open an existing/previously saved document?Â
Every time I try to open an existing document or save a new one Microsoft word crashes. I am able to start a new document but if I try to save it all of the action/editing buttons fade/unhighlight (save, print, quit, copy paste, etc) and I am ubable to do anything. However, most of the buttons in view, history, bookmarks, tools, window & help still work.Then I have to force quit because the option to quit is no longer available.
My document folder is no longer on my dock. I don't know how it got lost. I went to finder and tried to drag the folder to my dock numerous times, but it won't go there!
I have not needed a pasword in the past and I remember years ago in was not possible for a P/W for a document folder.Has there been any changes that now allow for passwords for a document? If not, any free apps out there for it?
I just got a Mac Pro with a 250GB SSD drive and 2 1TB drives. I planned to use the 250GB drive for the OS and the other two drives for all my data. How do I move the location of Documents, Music, Pictures...? In Windows, you can move the folder location, but I'm not sure if you can do this w OSX.Â
If this isn't possible, what's the best way to keep my data off the 250GB drive?
Guys, how can i save a text edit document in a designated sub folder? All this time the only option to save a text edit doc for me is either in a document folder or other non-sub folders (e.g. desktop, etc).
I want to unclutter my macbook and I have found that I have duplicated files in my All Document folder. I want to delete these files so it is not taking up unwanted space on my hard drive. I have saved what I wanted in folders that I created for that subject. Everything else I want to delete.  My question is if I delete this stuff will it cause my computer to mess up, I wont be deleting important files for programs to need to run with, will I.  I also found that I have two "All Document" folders and two "Download" folders can I delete one so I only have one of each.Â

Right away when I tried it, it opened up in my microsoft word free trail. Please tell me I don't have to pay another $150 dollars after all this money I spent on this computer.
How do you determine what application will open up document links in Safari? I am creating a website with many links to xls, xlsx, ppt, pptx, doc, docx documents. When I click on one of these links, it either downloads the file if I have published the site to a host site, or brings me to the file in Finder if the website is accessed from a local drive. In other words, the site was exported and not published. But if I click on a link to a Pages, Numbers or Keynote file, it opens it up the linked document in that application regardless of whether I'm going from the published site or from the exported site on a local folder. I'd like the above Microsoft file types to automatically open up in their appropriate apps as well.Â
I know how to set what application gets opened on your Mac when you open a file depending on the file extension, but is there a way to tell Safari how to do this too?? For example, I've got doc and docx files set up to open Pages when I open those types of files which works fine on my Mac. But the same behavior doesn't hold true when opening these documents from Links on a web page in Safari. I thought this method would flow through and work the same way when opening document links in Safari, but it apparently doesn't.

I know this is probably an easy answer but when i first got my aluminum mac book there was a download folder on my dock and it showed a whole list of all my downloads but i must have removed it from the dock. How do i get it back ?
I purchased a mac book air recently for business purposes. i download a lot of files and i like to organize my folders and files. i noticed when i move the files from download folder and then delete it from download folder the file in another folder also gets deleted. what i am trying to say is when i delete my files from download folder it automatically deletes that file everywhere! how can i fix this ?
(no matter if i copy or drag the file , if i delete from download folder it automatically delete the file everywhere on my computer)
