Bridge CS6 "open with" choose programms

OS: Win 7 Professional 64bit
Bridge: CS6 5.0.2.4
Hello,
how can I choose the programms that are shown in Adobe Bridge CS6 at "File->Open With"? I've got at least 2 programms which shouldn't be there, e.g. Firefox or COM Surrogate 6.1. I don't know, how they came into the menu. When I right-click the files in Windows Explorer, the "Open With" menu is filled with image editing and viewing tools. Everything is ok there. No Firefox and no COM Surrogate. Besides I want to add some tools like Photoshop or Windows Image Viewer and some more. When I add Photoshop in "Preferences->File Allocation", it is in the menu. But when I add Windows Image Viewer, Photoshop isn't there anymore. Is there a way to configure this? Especially COM Surrogate is a operating system network tool and shouldn't absolutly be there. I tried to set the file allocation to standard, but COM Surrogate and Firefox stayed in the menu.
Greetings
Thomas

I work with a Hasselblad medium format camera. I do not have a CF card in use. And I can tell that this worked absolutely flawless for many years. I NEVER had corrupted files caused by transfer. Many photographers using pro medium format cameras work the same way (Phase One, Leaf, etc.). They do not use CF cards but firewire cable. the problem arised when I started using the CS6 Bridge software. And it turned out that I get more and more corrupted files which appeared to be fine before. So from one shooting i.e. 1 file of 100 was corrupted first. Since I started using Bridge and changed RAW settings and worked with the same files after some days I have 5 corrupted files of 100 now. And NO it is not my system. It works fine with other camera RAWs where I have absolutely no problems. It is only the Hasselblad files. Though I still can open the Hasselblad RAW files with the Hasselblad software. The problems are only with the Bridge (respectively the raw editor) in combination with the Hasselblad files.
To me it looks like CS is corrupting the files since they worked fine at first - even in CS and after some days playing around in CS the appear to be corrupted. Funny that I can open the same files without problems using a different software - isn't it? ;-)
thanks for the link I will try it.... :-)

Bridge CS6 crashes with double-click, not with "open with"

Bridge cs6 keeps crashing whenever I double click on a file (jpg/psd/raw files).
After reading on this forum I couldn't find anything that worked for me.
The strange thing is, when I select a file right click open with photoshop CS6 (default) the file opens without any problem in Photoshop.
I have my default file associations of all (image) files set to photoshop CS6.
Any Ideas what can be the problem?
(windows 7 Ultimate and I have double-click edits camera raw setting in bridge marked off, and bridge crashes too when it is marked on)
Thanks!

Have made comments on this in Photoshop forum, but have not solved problem yet. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1184356?tstart=0

well it never worked, and I installed several times. I kept working with bridge CS5, but I have a new camera with raw files only supported in CS6, so now I'm confronted with this problem again.
Also tried ctrl + open to reset & purge everything....
here's my log.

Bridge CS6 open file bug with Hasselblad RAW file

There is a bug in Bridge CS6 (or RAW editor?) with (some) Hasselblad RAW files. I have a set of FFF files that I can use and open without problems in Bridge CS6 (5.0.0.399 x64). But one file of them does not show a preview icon and when I try to open it in PS6 or RAW editor, I get an errormessage "unexpected end of file...". When I open the same file in Hasselblad "Phocus" software there is no problem. I can see the preview thumb and I can play around with the file and even export to TIF or DNG without any trouble. I can even open the exported DNG in PS or Bridge/RAW editor then.
Well, you might say I should not care for a single file but it leaves a bad taste, when the Hasselblad software can handle the file without problems...
If some developer want to take a look at this I could provide original files.

When right clicking an image in Bridge, the "open with" option doesn't display Fireworks

This is not the case with all the files, but some. For example, there was a .jpg file that I couldn't open in Fireworks when right clicking and choosing "open with", although Illustrator and Photoshop were both listed. Note: I have Cs5 Extended. Thank you in advance.

The "open with" menu is set in the OS, not Bridge, so open Windows Explorer and work on it from there to add what you want.

No options but PS CC in Bridge's open with dropdown list

Just downloaded Photoshop CC with Photoshop CS6 still installed on my computer. Why working in Bridge I noticed that when right clicking on an image and then the "Open With" link, the only thing showing up is Photoshop CC. It would be nice if CS6 was an option as well. Is there any way to set it so that both are available?
Also, how do I install my Neat Image plug-in in Photoshop CC?
Thanks
Linda

I just closed out CC and opened CS6 and CC is still showing in the open with drop down. I also closed/re-opened Bridge and this did not help.
I also want to mention that I did not download Bridge CC, so I am still using Bridge CS6.

Photoshop - open with: choose default program

Hello,
How do I choose Photoshop as the Default Program to open .jpgs if the program doesn't appear in the "Choose Program you want to use to open this file:"? the
Also, I've Browsed in order to Choose the Default program but when I go to: Program Files>Adobe>Adobe Photoshop CC 2014>Photoshop.exe and choose this program the Windows Photo Viewer is automatically chosen and Photoshop doesn't EVER appear in my choose of Default programs.
This wasn't an issue with an older version of Photoshop.
Help!
Lonnie

Sounds more like a Windows issue than Photoshop. Can you test the Open with tool with other file types and programs?
I'm also surprised that Photoshop does not appear in the main list, and that you have to hunt for it with Browse. Have you tried navigating to the same .exe file in Explorer and making sure it launches Photoshop.

Can't open PDF with open with (choose illustrator)

Hi!
We have another small problem . The person that use the Adobe Illustrator want to right click on a PDf file, go to open with and choose Illustrator, but it's not in the list. If I try to add it, it doesn't show.
How can I get that PDF file open with illustrator instead of opening illustrator then open the PDF?
Thanks!
Christian

I'm a bit confused by your answer.
Steve's reply was for a Mac. But you talk of the Start Menu and from your other post it appears you are on Windows. I didn't know it was possible to drag a file onto the Start Menu to open it. Doesn't work for me in Vista.
Regardless, in either OS, you should be able to right click and assign a program.
In Vista I right-clicked a PDF, chose Choose Default Program, then Browse, found Photoshop, and hit Open. The PDF opened in Photoshop and now when I right click a PDF I see Photoshop is in the list of candidates (it wasn't before). It isn't the default though, because even though I went through Choose Default, I didn't every actually assign a new default.

Why can't I find Painter X3 in the bridge CS5 "open with " command list?

I just installed Painter X3 and can't find it in the "open with" list. Painter X was there along with Firefox for PSD files, so how do I add it?

OS X is a multi-user operating system. Every user can have their own account that only they can access. If you want to keep your email private simply create another user account for others to use. Keep your own account private. But to answer your question directly, no, there is no option to require a password when opening the Mail application when other people are using your account.

[solved] Gnome / Nautilus: Open With CLI programm

Hello,
How can I add CLI programs such as sxiv Image Viewer to the Open With context menu entry in Nautilus?
In particular I want to open images with sxiv by default when clicking on the image in Nautilus.
Thanks

I think the list of "Open With" applications is created by reading the ".desktop" files that are on your computer. You can read about them here. The sysem files are in "/usr/share/applications" and your personal ones are in "~/.local/share/applications". Just create a .desktop file for sxiv that uses a command similar to the one cellisten posted.
GNOME probably also has a way to create .desktop files with a GUI (I think it used to be called "alacarte").

Did you copy your OWN file into a directory that's controlled by pacman?

Bridge CS6 Output with PDFs

I had a request from a client about some items we have done in the past for their company (wearable items). There is no easy way for me to create a list. So... I went to my wholesaler site to pull down copies of invoices that showed the items we have done. Obviously the invoices shows my costs and don't want them to see that. My thought was just to open them all in Photoshop (they come down as pdfs from site) and crop out the parts I want to keep. I saved them again back as pdfs (cropped) and thought instead of having 12 pages in one pdf (combine) file I would create a sort of contact sheet with them on it. When I brought them into bridge and zoomed in they were very low quality (I had the quality slider all the way to right for 100% and 300dpi). Couldn't even read the info. If I opened the actual individual files in acrobat you can read them just fine. Am I missing a setting somewhere? I would assume the pdf quality I save them in from bridge would make them readable as well??? I did actually save them as a pdf contact sheet and opened it in acrobat to verify they were low res as well. I thought maybe just the preview in Bridge was a lower res view for resources.
Thanks for any help!!

Hi AlbiDan,
Its possible that it might be a Javascript issue. I see that javascript is used in the HTML gallery. Did you upload through Bridge or from an FTP client? Do you have the URL for a broken gallery?

CS6 opens with Auto Recovery files every launch.

I know where the recovery files are. Finding and deleting them isn't the issue.
My understanding of Auto Recover is that when a working file is saved and closed, the corresponding Auto Recover psb should be trashed automatically.
Every evening I save and close all my work, quit Photoshop and shut down the Mac. Every morning when I start Photoshop, at least one Auto Recovery file opens. It's the last file(s) I was working on the previous evening.
I've toggled Auto Recover on/off, trashed the folder and had CS6 recreate it. Nothing works. Every morning, I am presented with a psb of the previous evening's work.
My scratch disk is a dedicated 100gb SSD. I have triple verified that CS6 is not writing recovery files to a different location.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rob

Is there any problem at/after quitting Photoshop?
Boilerplate-text:
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by pressing command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift while starting Photoshop until the appropriate dialog appears after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)

How to set White Balance details in Metadata Bridge Cs6 shooting with MarkIII 5D ?

Is there any way to get detailed info of White Balance setting in Bridge Metadata ? I'm getting only "custom" ; my instructor in College needs more detailed data in my contact sheets.
Thanks for any imput

You can't get this info in a contact sheet, neither is it easy to get other then look at the camera setting you have used to shoot the files. Maybe it is somewhere hidden deep down in the exif data but I can't find it with exact numbers.
Shooting Raw those WB figures are irrelevant because you can set color temperature and tint to whatever you like. Shooting jpeg your options are limited because of the fact the Raw data is already processed and changing temperature and tint effects the whole image.
Try shoot a Raw and jpeg together from the same scene. One with daylight and one with artificial light conditions. (personally I have set my WB in camera fixed at 5500 but with auto settings you can also see the difference) Try to correct the jpeg and the Raw file in ACR and see what I mean.
And to be honest, if your instructor at College would like to have this he also should tell you why he wants it and how you can deliver it...

After Effects CS6 opening with a lot of alarms related to effects redundancies with other programs

After intalling Premiere pro CS6 and After effects CS6, I installed add-ons for these programs (newblue, boris, prodad...). When I open After Effects it gives me 38 cases of effects (Detail Enhancer, noise Reducer...) redundant in other programs, telling me to get rid of them.
When I check these effects in my programs, they are mainly .aex files, located in Premiere Pro CS6, Adobe Common Plug-ins, NewBlue Video effects collections 1 to 6. Some of them also exist in avid /pinnacle studio programs (my former video tools I still use to close previous video projects) before concentrating in Adobe CS6 suite. I don't know what to remove in a safe way. Premiere pro CS6 doesn't worry about redundancies ! Only After Effects...

Where, exactly, are the redundant files?
Did you use the installers for these plug-ins or install them manually?

Fireworks CS6 opens with many many files, and then stops. time after time. What to do now?

Suddenly my Fireworks CS 6 will not open, that is, it opens and then starts to open many many .png files I worked on before (really I think it opens more then 40 + very fast and then the program quites with an error.
Before I never had problems with this software and I need it because of a deadline (of course)
