How to open WAND file?

An often recurring problem with GarageBand Magic Template is that WAND is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file WAND to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WAND 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 Apple GarageBand

The first step is to check if the computer has the Apple GarageBand program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Apple GarageBand in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file WAND.

Programs to open WAND file

Remember to download programs supporting WAND files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Apple GarageBand with WAND files

If, despite the installed application, the WAND file does not start in the Apple GarageBand application, you must create a file association. 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 select the desired program. 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 Apple GarageBand application as the default for handling the WAND file.

Step 3. Update Apple GarageBand to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Apple GarageBand program with the GarageBand Magic Template 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 WAND file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the WAND file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our WAND file. Sometimes virus-infected WAND files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the WAND file. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WAND file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file WAND 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the WAND file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the WAND file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the WAND file again. However, some background programs may block the WAND file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
