OS X :: Opening Saved File Without Saving It First?
Apr 28, 2009
setting to be able to open a file before it is saved. for example clicking on a torrent link file only gives you the option to save it. how to bypass the save and let it open straight to the default torrent program or whatever you got set up as the default program.

I have a MacBook Pro ca. 2010. It's on 10.7.2. For the past few months I've been fighting this particular problem, and have not been able to get a solution on other Mac forums. Hopefully someone here has some insight. Every time I start or restart the Mac it restores the desktop, including the dock and apps, to a state from a few months ago. It opens Safari, iPhoto, System Preferences and the Real Player Downloader (which I just this moment deleted). iPhoto immediately wants to repair its database, Safari opens the tabs that were open that day, and System Preferences goes to Network. Â
I have tried deleting the folders in /username/libraray/application saved states. I have locked that folder. I have unchecked the option in Preferneces, and I always uncheck the option to save states when shutting down. Based on a suggestion from a user elsewhere I repaired disk permissions on the hard drive.Â

Need to open Pages documents. I created a document on an older version of pages and now my new MacBook Air won't open it and says I need to save it on Pages 09 first. How do I do that? I really need to be able to open my old (old as in only a year old) Pages documents.

iJust deleted a couple object in IDCS2 and hit command-S instead of command-Z. These objects had lots of attributes applied to them and this will take me forever to get this thing back to the way it originally was. Is this possible to recover?

I have a G4, dual 450, 1G Ram running 10.4.11. Recently after downloading and opening an .rar file, a file named .DS_Store appeared on the desktop. I have since deleted the .rar file, but cannot delete the .DS file. It is appearing now in all of my programs, including my camera when I plug it in. I've tried ClamXav, MacScan, and DnsChangerRemovaltool, also What'sKeepingMe, but nothing can remove it. Info says it's a document, 16 KB, and it reads as date created the last time I turned the machine on. Can anyone tell me what this is and how I can get rid of it?

For some reason when I save a Microsoft 2008 Word file to my desktop, as soon as I am done saving it, stuffit opens and a folder with the same name as the .docx file is created that contains the .docx info. So everytime I save one file I end up with 1 word doc and one corresponding folder. Any feedback on how to stop this or hide the folders or put the folders in their default directory?

I'm having issues with saving a .doc file to a network share from my macbook. It gives the error message that I don't have the appropriate permissions to do it. I checked the document and it is marked with read/write access ok for me, also I've all the latest updates (it's on 10.6.3). I saved a few pdf files to this share with no problem, so only doc issues.

Everytime I open my iTunes I get one of two errors. The one in this title is the latest and it is annoying.Â
The second I think has to do with Genius, states it cannot connect to the iTunes store at the moment.Â

I was curious if anyone could help me out on this.
I recently did a clean sweep of my system drive and am keeping most things external for easier plug-n-play and swap capabilities.
Currently by default Firefox saves downloads to: MacHD > Users > AppleNewton > Downloads
So i changed that to point to my external drive: Volume > Downloads (folder on drive) > Firefox
so when i say goto apple.com and download programs or utilities it prompts the Okay to download and it saves it to that destination. (since it does not auto-launch)
So my problem is those files that auto-launch another application say..iTunes, VLC or uTorrent.
I download torrent file, it saves the package to the Downloads section but within uTorrent I can send it to a different completed folder.
So i just need to find out a way to get the auto-launch files to be saved to the Firefox downloads folder on the external drive, isntead of defaulting to the MacHD>User>AppleNewton>Downloads folder
it seems to only do it when the item is selected as Open With when using Firefox.

I want to migrate from my iTunes account to my MobileMe/iCloud account. But before I can do that, I need to create a backup of my calendars. My problem is though, that iCal constantly freezes when I'm saving the backup file (via File > Export > iCal Archive…) and I have to force quit it after a while.Â
