riczito 14 Apr 2014, 10:36	Finderpop inline "Open with" stopped working Hi, all. Not sure when this started, but it's recent, and it's still a problem in the 2.5.4 beta : the wonderfully useful inline Finderpop Items are not opening their respective files any more. When I right-click on a file and try to open it with, say, Photoshop, the Mac will switch immediately to Photoshop (or launch it if it isn't open), but it won't open the file(s) I've just selected. Has anyone else seen this? Any clues on how to fix it? I've trashed Prefs and reinstalled, I've rebuilt the Finderpop Items folder, to no avail. Thanks in advance !
riczito 24 Sep 2012, 11:09	Re: Lion : Permissions issue (bug?) with Preview Hi Turly, Just a heads-up to let you know that this is still an issue, even with 2.4.4. First time I do a right-click (with Preview closed) on some images and select Preview to open them, I get that dialog. If I dismiss the dialog and try again, the images open fine. Not sure if it's Preview issue or a FP issue. I've done the obvious permission repairs etc. No change. Thanks, Ric
riczito 19 Sep 2011, 13:15	Re: Lion : Permissions issue (bug?) with Preview Hi Turly, Yeah, it's Preview. It starts up, pauses (for a length of time dependant on how many images I've selected), then shows the dialog. If I dismiss it and try again, Preview shows me the images as normal.
riczito 19 Sep 2011, 06:42	Lion : Permissions issue (bug?) with Preview Hi Turly, I have been running into a bug, both on FP 2.3.9.2 and now 2.4. I have Preview as one of my FP Items. When I select a bunch of images in the Finder, right-click to open them with Preview (and Preview is closed), I get this warning (see attached image). Now that Preview is open, if I do the right-click a second time, the images open as expected. This has been going on since Lion, and only happens with Preview and FP's Items. It's entirely reproducible for me, on two different machines. The images are bog-standard PNGs or JPGs created by Photoshop, or my digital camera. Checking their permissions shows them to be as follows : riczito(Me):RW, staff:R, everyone:R Thanks for any advice!

Lion : Permissions issue (bug?) with Preview
Hi Turly,

I have been running into a bug, both on FP 2.3.9.2 and now 2.4.

I have Preview as one of my FP Items. When I select a bunch of images in the Finder, right-click to open them with Preview (and Preview is closed), I get this warning (see attached image).
Now that Preview is open, if I do the right-click a second time, the images open as expected. This has been going on since Lion, and only happens with Preview and FP's Items. It's entirely reproducible for me, on two different machines.

The images are bog-standard PNGs or JPGs created by Photoshop, or my digital camera.
Checking their permissions shows them to be as follows : riczito(Me):RW, staff:R, everyone:R

Thanks for any advice!

That's a bit odd, I'll have a look at that when I get back to my Mac tonight.

What app is running when that dialog appears? Preview? Or is it the Finder?
