Configuring a default application for a specific file 1

[drbk563]

How can I setup via the Finder window a default program that will open a specific file always. From example all .txt file should always open with the application "Textedit".


Thank You

Choose the file - sample.txt control click on it and choose Get Info and go to the Open With and choose the application to open with. Close the Get Info window and you should be good to go.

Everything will be OK in the end.
If it's not OK, then it's not the end

There are a couple of preference panes available to do this more simply:
DefaultApps (most user-friendly) and
MisFox (most techy)

You should have a look at these from versiontracker / macupdate; they are both good. Best use one or the other, though, not both!
