I just upgraded from Express to Pro. When I open a project in Finder and neither Express nor Pro are running, it always opens in Express. "Open With ..." says Express is the default. How can I make Pro the default instead?

Well, when I've done things like that it always sems like a good idea to keep an application that you know the file will definitely open in...

How can I/Can I make Firefox the default .PDF viewer in Windows 7?

For the basic PDF viewing I do, Adobe Reader is just slow and annoying. I love using Firefox, but unfortunately I cannot set it as the default program to open PDF files. Even when I select Firefox after right clicking and select open with, Windows does not comply. Is there a config option I can change that will allow me to set Firefox as the default PDF reader.
Thank you for your help.

You can not make Firefox the default for viewing PDF files for the entire Windows Operating System, only the default viewer from within Firefox. Like when PDF files that are downloaded from websites and displayed in Firefox; you can try using '''File > Open File''' from within Firefox to view PDF file that are already saved on that PC, but I'm not sure that will work - I haven't tried doing that.

Usually the default program associated with an image file extension is an image developing Program like Lightroom or an image editing program like Photoshop. If you want to change the default associated program to Adobe Bridge you would use Window's Controls Panel file association applet.

It is probably because you are not properly closing Firefox. Restarting your system would make sure that Firefox had terminated, but you do not have to do that.
To properly close Firefox on Windows systems, use
:File > Exit or "Firefox:" button > Exit
When you get the message "Firefox is already running" it is too late, and you must force termination of Firefox through the Windows Task Manager before restarting Firefox. Windows 7 has a keyboard shortcut to save you a step "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" then on "Processes" tab, select "firefox.exe" and use the "End Process" button. More thorough would be to right-click on the "firefox.exec" and choose "End Process Tree".
You would find firefox.exe in a Mozilla folder in your program files, but y0u would not want to delete it there, you would need to use the Control Panel which you have already identified and do it from there -- but generally you would not need to do that, and there is nothing in what you have posted to indicate that you should. But if you did do that, then don't let the install start Firefox for you as you would want to use you existing desktop icon or method of starting Firefox, and should decline having Firefox install start Firefox for you. When the install starts then invoke Firefox in your normal manner. This should eliminate problems of creating a new profile rather than using your old profile.

Select (highlight) the file in Finder and then use the Finder File menu Get Info (or Command I) and in the Open With section of the Get Info choose the application you want to open the file. Another method is to right-click the file in Finder.

Download and use Screenshots Preference Pane:

It's free and easy, gives you about a dozen options on how to save the shot and allows you to change where it's saved to.
I also use Capture Me:

Best screen capture utility I've tried, you can save each screen shot in any format you want or have it go. It also works as a great picture sticky because the windows floats above other windows. It's also free,

QuickTime supports many different file types & codecs, but not all. In many cases you can lookup, download & install specific codecs if you need them.

Change Default Screen Capture Format from PNG to JPG

I'm running Mac OS 10.4.8 on a G5 Duo Core (Power PC). Up until about 10.4.1, my screen captures (Apple-Shift-4) would result in a PDF file. Then they started coming out as PNG files. I would strongly prefer that they default to jpg files, since I typically change the PNG files to JPG.
Can anyone tell me how to change the default for screen captures from PNG format to jpg format?
I have tried to use the process described at http://textsnippets.com/posts/show/131 but this does not change the default format for screen captures. I've also discussed this issue with Apple online help, but they were not able to change the default format either.
Any suggestions?

Acrobat X: Can you make 'open' the default option when opening sharepoint documents?

When you open a sharepoint document with acrobat X, you get the pop-up screen asking you how you want to access the file. The option are 'check out and open', or just 'open'.
Is it possible to make 'open' the default access methode, so that you don't have to click on the pop-up for every document?

Hi Deedee,
No, it's not really possible to set this default.
That said, there's a registry key setting you can change to disable the SharePoint integration feature though.
They key is:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\(product name)\(version)\FeatureLockdown\cSharePoint
Summary: Disables the SharePoint integration features.
Details: Controlls the application's ability to detect that a file came from a Sharepoint server, disables the check-out prompt, and removes the SharePoint specific menu items. Possible values include:
0: Disable the SharePoint integration features.
1: Same as "null." Don't disable the SharePoint integration features.
This may not really fit your need though.

Can I delete these files (see screen shot) after a catalog restore?

I have Photoshop Elements Organizer version 9.0.3.0 and am running Windows 7 64-bit SP1.
After I got a new computer, I created a backup of my catalog (via the file drop-down menu in Elements Organizer).
I then restored the catalog to my new computer (via the same drop down menu in Elements Organizer). It went fine and my catalog is just as I left it.
Now I'm trying to clean up the look of things in my "My Pictures" folder (I'm a little OCD, lol). The restore made a folder within a folder within a folder... so I was wondering if I can delete all these files that the restore made? (see screen shot) This is the entire contents of one of the folders the restore created. The other folder just contained all my photos by themselves.
I don't know what all those folders do, so want to make sure they will not damage/corrupt my catalog or the organizer if I delete them. I will later make another back-up, of course. I'm hoping that all these files will just recreate themselves? I just want to delete them so I can get rid of so many excess folders in my "My Pictures." I just like to click "My Pictures" and have my pictures be RIGHT THERE. It's annoying to have to click through like 4 folders to get to them after this catalog restore.
Thanks for any guidance!

@99jon,
Thank you for your help! And, dang it, I did choose a custom location for the restore. The instructions I was following said to do that (I didn't really know what I was doing so I made sure to follow them to a 'T'). Looks like the file path for the catalog *is* pointing to that folder in the screen shot of my original question here.
So does this mean there is no way to delete them? I wish I could just start fresh (but of course still have my catalog with all my images and the right categories/keyword tags, etc). I don't mind the wait for regenerating things or moving things and stuff.
I don't remember ever seeing all those breeze files and cache files, etc, on my old computer. I never saw any files of the sort until I did the back-up.... of course, maybe that's because they were stored somewhere other than right inside "My Pictures?"
