How to open _501 file?

This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the _501 file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Mac OS X

Programs to open _501 file
Remember to download programs supporting _501 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Mac OS X with _501 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the _501 file still does not use the Mac OS X program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Mac OS X application as the default for handling the _501 file.
Step 3. Update Mac OS X to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Mac OS X program with the Apple MAC OS X file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Apple, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the _501 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The _501 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the _501 file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the _501 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected _501 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of _501 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair _501 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple, Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file _501 except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the _501 file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the _501 file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
