Bridge "file open" icon no longer there - change from CS2?

In Bridge with CS2 there was a little icon on the Bridge thumbnail that showed if a file was currently open in Photoshop.
In Bridge CS3 there is no such icon on the thumbnail. There is no way to see in the Content pane (with the thumbnails) which of the files are currently open in Photoshop or not.
Is this a "feature change" since CS2 that has removed the "open file" icon, or is there a setting that I can't find to make the icon appear again?
(CS3 with Bridge 2.1.1.9 and PS 10.0.1 on Windows Vista Business 32 bit)

I've been searching for an answer to this too and was hoping to find it here. So far no luck, but I'd really love to be able to see which files are open and which are not in bridge...

Bridge File Open in camer raw, is grayed out. Camera raw works in PS.

Why, when a raw file open in Bridge with a double click opens in camera raw, that same file in bridge the 'open camera raw' option in the file menu is grayed out?

There are 3 places to check this option, 1 in Bridge preferences itself, 1 in the camera raw preferences via Bridge and the last one in the PS preferences from PSCS3 itself.
They all should have a checkmark. But there are some issues with this option. You might also want to refresh the preferences with restarting Bridge an holding down option key and after doing so again check and set the prefs to your wishes.

Can't mount Time Capsule on PC (white system tray icon no longer there)

My new time capsule is working perfectly on my MacBookPro, however recently I tried to get it to work on my PC laptop. I easily got the wireless internet work on the PC, that's not a problem. I installed the airport utility on my PC and it was able to recognize it through the airport utility interface/configuring window where I could change settings, etc., just like I could on my Mac. There used to be (on my PC) this white icon in my system tray on the lower right of my screen. When I clicked on this I could type my password, as prompted, and mount to the time capsule, which I could now see in My Computer as a drive. I tested a few files by dragging them over into the drive, and it worked fine. Now, a week later the icon in the system tray has disappeared, and I can no longer see the time capsule on my PC in My Computer. I can still click on the airport utility icon in my programs and see/change settings in my time capsule from my PC, but cannot see nor access the drive from My Computer (or mount by clicking on this now missing icon). Anyone else know what I can do? Thanks in advance!

I was just having this problem and figured out that the white system tray icon is the Airport Base Station Agent. It wasn't running for me for some reason, too, but I found it and started it back up again at C:\Program Files\AirPort\APAgent.exe.
Here's an Apple Support article (it's a little old) I found that discusses drive mapping in windows with the Airport Base Station Agent: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1331
Hope this helps.

Files opened are no longer associated with a connection

Sorry if this has been posted before, but I couldn't find any mention of it.
Steps to reproduce the problem:
- open SQLDev
- open a connection
- open a file (using the "Files" tab in the left pane)
Result: the file is not associated with the open connection and you have to manually select it from the drop-down on the top right corner.
Previous versions were working as expected and current behaviour is extremely annoying.
Hope you will fix it ASAP.
Regards.

Well basicaly I think that any default sticking of a file to a connection is wrong.I disagree. To me default should be the connection(s) currently open.
If you really want to have such feature then it has to be configurable and disabled by default.That sounds more reasonable.
I think that first time you open a file you always have to chose a connection.I strongly disagree.
Consider you would have 10 connections opened and opening a file for the first time. To which connection would you attach the file?ideally SQLDev should ask me to which of the currently open connections I want to pin the file. If that's too much work, I can live with not pinning to any (IOW, as it is now). BUT if only ONE connection is open I want SQLDev to pin any file to that connection, without asking anything (IOW, as it worked before).
To remember to which connection was a file attached, you need to remember the full path to the file and the connection. If you have hunderts or even thousands of files then such log would be pretty big. What if I remove some files from my project? There is no way how you can detect this, so the log will contain dead mappings.I don't want SQLDev to remember anything: I work with CVS/SVN and the same file can be compiled on different connections (DEV, TEST, PROD, etc.). Not sure what are you talking about here...
Basicaly I don't understand why need this functionality? You need to attach a file to a connection only when you need to compile it. When I am programing something I usually have only few souces open (e.g. three packages). I doubt anybody opens and changes large number of packages. Are you doing some changes to entire system every day?I don't understand how the number of files should make any difference. You open three packages, fine: don't you need to compile the changes you make? I just don't want to be forced to choose the connection if that can be automated (and, BTW, how many connections do you have? I have hundreds: do you think it's fun scrolling through a list that long?).

Cs5 bridge file opens up into HP mediasmart

I have just installed Photoshop cs5, i started to browse through my photos in bridge and when double clicking on the photo, instead of loading into photoshop it loads into HP mediasmart instead. I can't find a way to stop this. If i right click on the photo it lists as the default being HP mediasmart but this is greyed out so i cannot change. I am set as the administrator of the computer so its not a permissions issue. Has anybody any thoughts on this. Thanks in advance.

Thanks Brett, i originally looked at the photoshop preferences not the bridge. Thanks for you help

Bridge CS4 edit history problem with OS change from XP to 7

I've changed my OS from XP to 7. After reinstalling software, Bridge CS4 no longer keeps my editing steps in the "edit history" metadata. The only steps recorded are that I've saved a file. I have the edit history box marked in preferences in both Bridge and PS, and have tried changing the metadata section in Preferences to session only, concise, and detailed. None of those choices make a difference. Any suggestions on how to get my edit history steps back in the metadata of Bridge? I use the edit history frequently! Thanks in advance!

Office files opened from network drive appear to be blank for Mac Users

Hi all,
We've got five macs in our office running 10.9 with Office 2011, and we have a file server running 10.8 which stores all of our documents.
More often than not, when one of the macs opens a DOC or DOCX from the file server, the file opens up blank.
There aren't invisible fonts, doing a Select All and changing to black doesn't help.
The files appear to be fine when opened in Finder, or with LibreOffice (which my colleagues don't want to use!)
The files open correctly when the files are moved to the local hard drive and opened from there.
The files also open fine via the network on a Windows 8.1 PC with Office 2007.
Has anyone else had this problem, and got a workaround? I've been looking at this for a while but not found anything as of yet.
Appreciate any assistance you can give. :)
Kind Regards,

PDF File Type Icon Not Displaying HELP!!!

Hey guys!
I have a quick question that I need resolved. Make sure you READ before you respond as people seem to be having trouble with this one.
Something happened on my system to where .pdf files aren't displaying the PDF file type image anymore. They're just displaying the Windows default non-associated file icon.
But the weird thing is that the .pdf file type IS associated with Adobe Acrobat, and when double clicked they DO open in Acrobat.
I checked inside of Acorbat.dll and the file type icon IS in there...so this is leading me to believe that something is messed up in the registry to where Windows doesn't know to link a .pdf with the icon inside of Acrobat.dll.
So my question is this...how do I RELINK the .pdf file type with the PDF file type icon located inside of Acrobat.dll???

Before you start editing the registry try the suggestions given in the FAQ:
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bbc2da9
failing that try doing a repair of acrobat from the help menu.
If still no joy let us know.

How to make InDesign files open by default in CC, not CC 2014

Now that I have 2 version of InDesign on my mac (10.8.5 - Mountain Lion), both CC and CC 2014, how can I make my .indd files open by default in CC instead of the new 2014 version?
I've tried selecting a .indd file, opening the Info panel and changing the "Open with:" option to "Adobe InDesign CC.app 9.2.2.103". I then click Change All.. and confirming. However, this does not work. Double-clicking any .indd file still opens in the 2014 version and the Info panel for any .indd file still shows the 2014 version as the "Open with:" default.
Any ideas?

Here are three methods. The first two are free but don't give you exactly what you want. The third requires a third-party utility and works perfectly.
(1) Right-click on a file and from the menu choose Open With... then choose the version of InDesign you want.
(2) Create an alias for your InDesign versions and place them on your Desktop. Drag your InDesign file onto the alias of the version you want to open.
(3) Purchase Soxy from Rorohiko:

NOTE: Rorohiko says the version that supports InDesign CC 2014 is coming soon, they're waiting to test the new version before they release it.

Ai file opening by default as PDF and not w/AI CS3/4 on MAC client

We have recently moved our central file shares of *.*ai files from a windows file server to an EMC Celerra file server CIFS share. After the migration multiple MAC users have reported that some (but not all) *.* ai files on the share open up by default as a PDF file instead of opening up with Adobe Illustrator CS3/4.
If the user either right clicks - and selects to explicitly open with AI or if mac mouse, control-click and select AI - then the .ai file in question opens properly in CS3 and CS4. However when we double click, the file still opens up in preview as a PDF.
Is this something we need to change/update on the MAC OS side so that default will be AI? change/update onthe Adobe CS side? Or is this a problem related to the *.*ai files being shared on a EMC Celerra share. Again not all the *.*ai files have this issue - which has created even more questions...
Any info or suggestions would be deeply appreciated....
Thank you
Dave

I don't know anything about the EMC Cellera share, but I would say that this is a change on the OS side. Apple likes to think that Preview is the natural tool for viewing any PDF content, so Preview is now the default PDF viewer on Mac. You'll need to go to each of the Macs, do a Get Info and set Open With: Illustrator and Change All.
The reason this is happening on some of the .ai files and not others is that some of them do not contain PDF content (they were saved with PDF Compatibility unchecked.) To make sure that all files open with Illustrator do the Change All step on at least on file that does not have PDF content as well as one that does.
When Apple made this change in the OS, we asked them, for a way to set the default app programatically so that we could do it as part of the install process, but that didn't happen.

File Open strange behaviour

In File > Open, the shortcuts on the left side don't work (Desktop and My Documents). Within our company, these are stored outside the PC on the network, so whatever PC I use i get my own desktop and My Docyuments available. But, SQL Developer can't find these, even when I use the Location drop down list. If I put the mouse over the My documents button/link, the location is shown correctly (My Documents (\\WINSVXXX\My_Username$\My Documents). In Help>About, then tab Properties the property user.home shows correctly \\WINSVXXX\My_Username$. Can it be that SQL Developer accesses the network as a different user (anonymous?) so that it can't find the location? This is the first application that I know of that can't handle this.
Strangely enough, on Tools > Preferences > Worksheet the Browse button for "Select default path to look for scripts" works perfectly! I want that dialog for the normal file>open dialog.
Is there any way i can get this to work?
SQL Developer versien 2.1.0.63 Build MAIN-63.73
Edited by: user11987111 on 9-feb-2010 2:31

Thanks for this quick reply. Yes, the $ is present in the real path and yes, mapping seems to work. If it is this easy, why doesn't the default file>open work, this looks like a bug? It is not that userfriendly if every user (hundreds) should map there own drive letter to get this to work.

Set bridge to open in Camera raw

I want to click on file in finder and open in Raw ready to edit, not bridge, then have to select the image again

Not quite sure what you want.
By Finder, is this Bridge or some other program?
A RAW file opens in Adobe Camera Raw, either from Bridge or Photoshop, ready to edit or open as is, so not sure what you mean you don't want it to open in Bridge.
