onno Posted September 8, 2001 Share Posted September 8, 2001 When I try to open a FM file by doubleclicking on the icon,my mac tlls me that "the application that was used to create this file could not be found". I have to run FM first to open the file. Is there something that I could do about this (I really hope so, because I would like my computer to open the file automatically when the computer is started). I must say that the first version of the file was made on a PC running windows 98. Thanks for your help, onno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiveOak Posted September 8, 2001 Share Posted September 8, 2001 This is pretty typical for files brought across from a Windows machine. It is always solved by creating a Mac copy using the FM command "Save a copy as..." -bd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
