Certain actions that you perform on your Mac will cause default apps to open. For example, clicking a document may open Pages. But what if you want Microsoft Word to open instead? You can also set your default web browser and email reader.
Here's how!
How to change the default Mac app for specific file types
- Right-click on a file that uses the file type you'd like to change the default for. For example, one with a .jpg extension (a photo).
- Click on Get Info in the pop-up.
- Click Open With if the section isn't already expanded.
Click the dropdown and choose an app.

- Horrible, DO NOT INSTALL THIS APP. It did not do as intended to convert a pdf to excel. I took over my computer, shut it down. When I was able to get it turned back on, most all of my apps were locked out. It took mind numbing hours to get everything straightened out. Even now, it.
- You can open a file from the Finder or from the Numbers app: From the Finder, Control-click the file, then choose Open With Numbers. If Numbers is the only spreadsheet app on your Mac, you can just double-click the file. From the Numbers for Mac app, choose File Open, select the file, then click Open.
Now any time you open a file with that extension, the Finder will automatically open it with the app you've selected.
With PDF To Excel Converter, users will be able to edit their PDF forms in MS Excel in few clicks. PDF To Excel Converter supports page range selection, which means users can convert selected form.
How to set your default web browser
- Launch System Preferences from the dock, Finder, or by clicking the Apple icon in the Menu bar.
- Click General at the top left of the window.
- Click the dropdown next to Default web browser.
Click the web browser you'd like to use as the default.

How to set your default email reader

- Launch Mail from your dock or the Finder.
- Click Mail in the menu bar at the top of the screen.
- Click Preferences.
- Click the dropdown next to Default Mail Reader.
Click the app you'd like to set as the default.
