Try C-u C-c C-o. On my mac, that switches whether the link opens in
emacs or through the operating system file association (although mine
is the reverse. With the prefix it opens in emacs. Not sure why). From
the doc-string for org-open-at-point:
(org-open-at-point &optional IN-EMACS REFERENCE-BUFFER)
Open link at or after point.
If there is no link at point, this function will search forward up to
the end of the current line.
Normally, files will be opened by an appropriate application. If the
optional argument IN-EMACS is non-nil, Emacs will visit the file.
With a double prefix argument, try to open outside of Emacs, in the
application the system uses for this file type.
Hope this helps,
-Anthony
