How to open CANNEDSEARCH file?
The most common problem when using Apple Mac OS X Finder Predefined Search is that a specific CANNEDSEARCH is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open CANNEDSEARCH, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CANNEDSEARCH 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
The first step is to check if the computer has the Mac OS X program installed. This can be achieved by typing Mac OS X into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open CANNEDSEARCH files.
Programs to open CANNEDSEARCH file
Remember to download programs supporting CANNEDSEARCH files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Mac OS X with CANNEDSEARCH files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the CANNEDSEARCH file to open in the Mac OS X application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the CANNEDSEARCH file with the Mac OS X program.
Step 3. Update Mac OS X to the latest version
If, however, after binding Mac OS X with Apple Mac OS X Finder Predefined Search there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Apple, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CANNEDSEARCH file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the CANNEDSEARCH file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file CANNEDSEARCH or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected CANNEDSEARCH files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of CANNEDSEARCH 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular CANNEDSEARCH file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CANNEDSEARCH files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the CANNEDSEARCH file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the CANNEDSEARCH file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CANNEDSEARCH file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
