Help with file association please?

[trippr]

Hi peeps.

A little help needed if no one minds?

I am having trouble download .nzb files.

When i try i get an error via firefox saying: ...nzb could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist.

I used to used Unison to open this file be have now deleted this and started using i grab and nzb drop.

I don't know if the problem is with my firefox settings or what? Ive had a look but cant seem to sort it out...

Thanks in advance for your help as i know how helpful you peeps can be on here!

Control-Click on the file and choose "Get Info" -> "Open With".
Select the Application and then click "Change All"

That will let you set it to whatever you want.

problem sorted.

I went into firefox's preferences
clicked content tab
at the bottom clicked manages files types, then selected the type of file and changed it there.
