Camera Raw window appears in wrong monitor

About a week ago, the camera raw window started appearing in the secondary monitor of my pair and I cannot stop it from starting there. It appears with the title bar up off the top of the screen and I can just barely grab the top corner of it from the edge of the primary monitor and drag it out where I can move it.
Prior to this, if I opened a raw file directly into CS3, it would start in the primary where CS3 is placed or if I right clicked a raw file in Bridge and chose open in CR, then it would open in the secondary monitor where Bridge is located. Now I don't get the choice. This was happening before the latest updates which all appear okay. System is a PC by the way.
I would appreciate any assistance.

Okay, here's a lesson for us all. I had accidentally hit the F key (Full screen mode toggle) whilst in there and it fills the screen with no hope of getting to the edges. Once back in normal mode all is well again!!!!! Embarassed
Thanks for the help

Why external editor Cs5 doesn't open in Adobe Camera Raw window?

I am workning in Apertute 3 and I want to edit some photos in Photoshop Cs5. I am working with RAW files, but when I want to open the file in external editor, it doesn't open in Adobe Camera Raw so I am loosing the Adobe Camera Raw adjustment abilities. Is there perhaps a way how to set up Aperture to comunicate with Photoshop Cs5 so it opens photos in Camera Raw window? I think in previous version of Aperture this was possible. Thanks.

Editing in the external editor (from within aperture) is only possible for Versions, not for masters, afaik. Since it would be pointless to export a Version again in some raw format, Aperture offers high quality lossless formats to export versions - tiff and Photoshop psd.
If you want to do the raw processing externally, you will have to edit the master image file:
export the master, or reveal a managed master and copy it to Photoshop, then reimport it.
To edit the master in Photoshop and to reimport it, you could use an automator service: I put a sample workflow and some instructions on how to use and modify it on this page: feel free to modify it according to your needs.

Adobe camera raw window won't resize and can't reach buttons

When I open an image from bridge into adobe camera raw 6.1 (Photoshop CS5) on my laptop, the camera raw window fills all of the screen (top to bottom) and the buttons at the bottom of the window are below the task bar. Thus I can't open the image in photoshop except by hitting the enter key. I can't reach the open, etc buttons. The window won't resize and there are no icon/buttons in the right upper corner to go to/from full screen. When I hit the icon in the top right hand menu bar in ACR (to go to full screen size) the window then fills the whole width of the screen in addition to the height, but no matter what I do I can't get the height of the window to shrink, so that I can access the icons at the bottom of the screen. What am I missing? Thanks

Don't worry about turning aero off just yet.
There are two key first questions:
What is your screen resolution (width in pixels x height in pixels)? Right-click on desktop, choose Screen Resolution.
What setting have you chosen for the display size (Smaller, Medium, Larger) in the Display dialog? Right-click on desktop, choose Personalize, then Display.

How do i open pictures in Camera Raw Window?

How do i open pictures in this window?

Easiest way is to browse that file in Bridge and right click and Select "Open in Camera Raw" or just double click to open(only for raw files) and it will open in a separate Camera Raw window.
You can do that same from PS as well using Filter > Camera Raw Filter, as already mentioned by Warunicorn.

Is there a way to get Adobe Camera Raw to appear in "Open With" drop down?

HI,
I was wondering if there might be a way to get a direct link to Adobe Camera Raw to appear in "Open With" drop down menu along with the other choices?

I would think you'd just need to select the Adobe Application you're using... whichever that one is, then the APP would know what to do with RAW.
What are they set for now?

Adobe Camera Raw window-Only full screen?

I use Elements 7.0. In an attempt to improve my photography, I’ve been concentrating on getting as close to a proper exposure in camera using zone system etc. To further get close to the appropriate exposure after the shot is taken, I’ve begun to shoot in raw. I’ve bought a couple of books, videos etc. and I’m getting the basics down fairly well.
I have one basic question. I’ve searched help both in Elements and within this forum and I can’t find anything that addresses my question.
When I select a nef image (Nikon D90) in the Organizer and go to “Edit” and then “Full Edit”, the Adobe Camera Raw box opens up in full screen with the selected image displayed. No part of the desktop is displayed, including the taskbar.
Is there a way to open up ACR that is not full screen? I’m so new that I still need to refer to help to figure out what certain sliders do. I have a 25.5 diagonal monitor, so I have the screen real estate to have a fairly large ACR window while at the same time displaying a help screen.
Thank you for your input.

Not sure if this will help, but on my ACR to the right of the Preview checkbox there is a window-double-arrow symbol that toggles full-screen mode in ACR so even if ACR started up in full-screen you could unmaximize it and then resize it somewhat smaller. I don't know how to start it up non-maximized in the scenario you describe because I don't use that scenario and my ACR starts up in whatever mode I last closed it, full-screen or not.

Pages always opens a new window on the wrong monitor

Is there anyway to fix this I don't understand why always open on the wrong monitor I can't seem to open on the correct one

OS X 10.8.4:
Drag the window back to the correct monitor and position it where you want it to open. Make certain that you actively save and close your documents before quitting Pages.
In System Preferences > General, check the box adjacent to Close windows when quitting an application.
Your Shutdown, Restart, and Logout dialogs should have the “Reopen windows when logging back in” unchecked.
If this does not correct the problem, select all contents (command+A) of the following folder only, and then use the right button to select the menu item, “Move to Trash.”
/Users/yourlogin-name/Library/Caches/
Also, drag the following file to the Trash as well:
/Users/yourlogin-name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist
Empty the Trash. (You may have to reboot to fully empty the Trash.)
The next time you launch Pages, the application window will open where you want it.

Camera RAW not appearing in Photo Downloader

Hello,
Since moving to a new PC (from Windows XP to Windows Vista 32-bit), the Elements Photo Downloader never shows the RAW files just .jpg files.
I'll try and describe my setup in detail:
Windows Vista 32-bit
Photoshop Elements 5.0 (applied the 5.0.2 update)
Camera RAW plug-in 4.4.1 (tried with 4.3.1 also, no luck)
Camera is Canon 400D, Firmware v 1.0.4
The only difference between when I had it working under XP is a firmware update to my camera. Could this have caused the problem? If so, which version of Camera RAW should I use?
Many Thanks.

Don't try to download directly from the camera...use a card reader. Your firmware update prolly broke XP's ability to see the camera as a disk instead of a device.

Opening Camera Raw - Windows XP

Sorry if this seems a bit too obvious a question!
I installed CS2 about 18 months ago, and never needed to use Camera Raw until now. I spent ages trying to find it on my computer, looking through photoshop, Bridge, Windows Explorer but just couldnt find it. I know I have it because updates are downloaded every so often for it.
Just to check I actually have Camera Raw, I searched in Explorer and it came up with:
- two .zip XML files the computer doesnt recognise and cant open
- An empty file folder
- An updater file (Prefetch)
- The application, Adobe\plug-ins\CS2\file formats\ which I when I click to open the computer says it does not know the file type (.8BI file type).
I've looked to downloading a update/file for it, but I dont see how the ones available will actually patch the programme so that it will work.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to open it?
Thanks for your help :)

Laura,
you'll never launch Camera Raw---Photoshop does (or Bridge), as John just has explained. The latest Camera Raw version you can use with Photoshop CS2 is 3.7. To use any later versions, you'd need to upgrade to Photoshop CS3.
If you have raw files from digital cameras that aren't supported by Camera Raw 3.7 (i. e. cameras that came to market after Camera Raw 3.7 was released) then use the current version of Adobe DNG Converter to convert the raw files into DNG format, then use Camera Raw 3.7 to process the DNG files. Adobe DNG Converter is a little stand-alone program (not a plug-in) that you can download free of charge from Adobe's website.

How do you size and minimize camera raw window?

Whenever I open Camera Raw it opens maximized in my screen and I can't move or re-size it. I have three monitors and the primary monitor, where camera raw opens, isn't what I consider photo quality (It doesn't have true black), and thus I want to move camera raw to a monitor that is photo quality. How can I do that? (other than changing which monitor is primary)

Which version of photoshop, camera raw and operating system are you using?
You can also click on the Full Screen/Regular screen button or use the F key to exit full screen.

Dragged attachment appears on wrong monitor

I have two monitors attached to my new 2012 Mac Pro running Mountain Lion (10.8.1). For the first time that I can recall in years of using a multiple monitor setup, I have a very odd little problem.
When I open Mail or Safari and drag something from the window to the desktop of the 2nd monitor, it appears on the desktop of the 1st monitor. If I drag an item to the desktop of the 1st monitor, it just appears there fine. Even weirder, it appears that the position is preserved relative to the screen. If I drag to the lower left of the second monitor, the item appears on the lower left of the first monitor!
In any case, this behavior is irritating since I usually have mail open in a large window, so dragging to the desktop on the second monitor gave me a way of having things visible and on the desktop.
Any ideas what could cause something dragged to the second monitor to appear on the first monitor's desktop?

This from an older post:
I wrestled with that a while ago, did some experiments, and came up with this definition:
The Dock will be displayed on the specified edge of the Main (MenuBar) Display EXCEPT when a secondary display extends that edge.
In the previous discussion, the display that extended the desktop and caused the trouble was used in a fixed way, and the poster did not often drag things to it or split windows across the screens there. (As you seem to be doing.)
In that case, you can LIE to the arrange pane, and tell it the left display is up and to the left, or down and to the left, and it will no longer properly extend that edge of the main display.Then the Dock will go back to the left edge of the main display. The side effect is that you will not be able to drag things to the left display in a straight line.

Login screen appears on wrong monitor

This problem started when I upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite 10.10.2. It persists on 10.10.3
I have two monitors; the main one is 26", the other is 17". Both are NEC. The main monitor connects with a DVI-to-Mini display port adapter. The 2nd with a VGA to DVI adapter. Video card is the stock AMD 5770 with one DVI two mini display port connectors.
On startup, the Apple logo appears on my main monitor, as expected. Then the login screen comes up on the 2nd monitor. Once I'm logged in, the main monitor becomes the primary display again (according to my user account display preferences).
I've checked all the preferences, reset the NVram and the SMC, and tried plugging the the main monitor into the other display port. Nothing changes this.
It's not a big problem, but it's annoying.
Any thoughts?

You can change the arrangement of the displays, and assign a primary one in the Displays system preferences (done by dragging the menu bar to the preferred primary display). However, this will not change what display is identified first by your hardware. If you have FileVault enabled, then the login screen you see will be loaded before the operating system is loaded. This login screen simply mimics the OS X login screen, but is in fact stored elsewhere on your disk and used to unlock it. As a result, this login screen will be shown on the display that is identified as the primary one in hardware, and then when OS X loads this may switch depending on your settings in the Displays preferences. Your options here are to either move your monitors on your desk, swap their connections to your Mac, or adjust the primary one along with the arrangement of them in the Displays system preferences (or a combination of these three) to find a setup that works as you want.
1. When you initially boot and see the login screen, note the connection of this monitor to your Mac. This port is the primary one.
2. Connect this port to the display you want to be the primary one (to show your login window, etc.)
3. Once booted to OS X, go to the displays system preferences and ensure the menu bar icon is dragged to this monitor so OS X identifies it as the primary one.
4. Adjust your display's arrangement accordingly in these system preferences.

Why does Apple Mail window default to wrong monitor?

I have two 30" Apple monitors with a MacPro 3.2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon running Mavericks. In previous systems I would have my Apple Mail open on the second monitor. Since Mavericks nothing I do will let Mail open anywhere but in its default position, which is upper left corner of main monitor. Very frustrating. I must manually move it every time I launch Mail. Any solutions out there?
fyi - iTunes window opens to the same position where I had closed it, which is on my second monitor where I want it.

I have this with Firefox once in a while. To get it back where I want it, I open FF and drag it to the display I want it on & maximize it. Then, I open iTunes on the display I DON'T want FF in, and maximize it. Open a few tabs and close the window. When I reopen it iTunes prevents FF from opening on the other display and it goes back to the secondary.
That may or may not work with Mail

After SL login windows appears with wrong font encoding

I installed SL and the login windows when I switch accounts and the username and password windows before I install things have lost their default fonts. Instead I get squares with an A inside.
How can I get back to the correct font/encoding?

Reset the font databases by booting into safe mode, which also deletes all collections, and then reset things. See Font Management in OS X for more details.
