Iphoto 08 Lion - videos don't open when you double click

I recently upgraded to Lion but still have iphoto 08. If I double click my videos in iphoto, they will not open in Quicktime10.1 automatically. I have to right click Show File and then double click. this is obviously quite annoying. Any solutions? Thanks in advance.

If you go to the Bridge Preferences>File Type Associations what does it list as the default?
If it doesn't list Adobe Photoshop CC you can use the Browse button to set it to
the Photoshop.exe in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC

I cropped a photo in iphoto. It is only cropped when you double click.

I cropped a photo in iphoto. In events it is showing the original photo. When I double click on the photo then it shows me the cropped version. I would like to see only the cropped version and delete permanantly the original version or at least not have to look at it. Help please.

How did you crop this photo? The symptom are consistant with your using a third party program and modifying the photo within the iPhoto library - which you must never do.
in iPhoto there is no way to "delete the original" version - iPhoto is a DAM (Digital Asset Manager) and as such always maintains the original, the digital negative

Bridge won't open NEF files, when you double click them, using PS CC

I have installed the latest version of PS CC and the Bridge, but when I go to my Nikon NEF files and double click to open them, they open up in some weird Window Photo Gallery, then I went to the preferences for bridge and reset the settings, and now when you double click on them nothing happens and they don't open at all. I am using a PC with Windows 7.
I have posted this question before, I need help, PLEASE

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen. Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take one of the actions that you're having trouble with. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

I have iPhoto 09 version 8.1.2 when I double click on some of the pictures, I see exclamation mark.

Hello,

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Some folders are not opening when I double-click.

Hi. I am currrently on an iMac, running OS 10.6.8. Last week random folders stopped opening when I double clicked them. I found it happening more when I started a new folder ( command n) and renamed it. Whenever I double click, the folder "whooshes" to the left never to be found. The folder stays on the desktop and does not open. The only way to get my items out is to throw the folder away, get an old folder, rename it and take the items out of the trash.
Any ideas as to what the issue may be? I've restarted the computer, shut down the computer, force quit the finder, relaunched the finder etc. I have done an "get info" and made sure everything is "read and write" as well. This is becoming a headache for about a week now.
Thanks for any help.

Optional Install.mpkg can't open when I double-click to attempt SL install

The Optional Install.mpkg "can't open" when I double-click to attempt SL installation.

then something is wrong with your system and not the DVd as may have been suspected. you can always install the optional packages by booting directly from the DVd as i said but you should figure out why it does not work normally. make a new user account and log into it. can you do it from there?

Not sure if it uses data, but that allows you to multitask. To save battery life you should close out of all the apps.

I get the following error messages when I double click the files icon or drag the file to the Ai app icon in the dock. The only way to open the files is via File > Open with in the app.
Photoshop and InDesign files open fine, it's just Illustrator.

Where did the iPod shortcut button go when you double click the home button and scroll to the left?

After upgrading to iOS 4.3.2 I have noticed that when I double click the home button the multitasking tray pops up when you scroll to the left the ipod shortcut is no longer there, it has been replaced by a safari shortcut. Is this right??

Reset
Have you tried rebooting the device? Hold down on the sleep and home buttons until the Apple logo appears on the screen. If this fails, connect it to a power source and try again holding them for at least 20 seconds.
Reset Home Screen
Reset All Settings
Reset all settings on Device. On your Device, open Settings, then navigate to “General” in the left-hand pane. Scroll down and tap Reset, then select “Reset All Settings.” This will delete any stored WiFi passwords and Appleid login information, but can result in a more stable function. On the final screen you will restore your backup or “Setup as new device” to keep current info intact.

Re ios7 update for ipad2. How do you stop all sites showing when you double click bottom button?

Re ios7 update - when I double click bottom button all sites visited come up as you scroll across screen. How can I ensure that no sites are shown or how do I delete sites visited?

Double clicking the Home button brings up multitasking. These are all the apps that are open in the background. You can close them by swiping the app preview page up to the top of the screen.
If you mean Safari websites, tap the tabs button (bottom right) and swipe each tab to the left to close them.
