Can't select pictures in bridge as they automatically open in acr

I am using a macbook pro. I have a problem with bridge. When I have downloaded my pictures with photodownloader, they appear in bridge. There is no problem with them there until I try to click on one, it automatically opens it up in camera raw. I can use the arrow keys to navigate but I have to click on one to start and go through to acr, then quit out and return to bridge. This means I can't select multiple images to edit in raw because as soon as I click on one, it opens in raw straight away. It makes no difference if I hold down cmd, option or shift or all of them in different combinations or even all at once.
This problem only recently started - I think maybe the latest upgrade has had something to do with it.
It is really frustrating!!!

When I click on pictures in bridge, then it will open them directly in photoshop, how do I prevent this?

I have to select pictures in bridge and I want to check the sharpness of each picture. However, this is not possible because almost every picture that I click, opened directly in Photoshop or Camera Raw. And that is not the intention! How do I get rid of this? Excuses me, my English is very bad...

They will only be where you put them.

When I i open a picture from my Documents it automatically opens in Photoshop. I want it to open in Lightroom. How do I change this preference?

When I i open a picture from my Documents it automatically opens in Photoshop. I want it to open in Lightroom. How do I change this preference?

You cannot open an image with LR as you would with Photoshop , or Elements. (or a word document, etc)
The Lightroom program can only open "Catalog" files (*.LRCAT) Opening a .LRCAT file will automatically open Lightroom.
To edit images in LR you must first open the program, then IMPORT the image into the Catalog database (only ever once), then you select the preview thumbnail and go to the Develop module ( press "D")
Your edits in the Develop module will show on the preview in the library grid.
Your original image file is not altered, so will not look any different in File Explorer or Finder.
To get an image file with your Develop edits applied, you must "Export" a derivative file in JPG or TIFF format.

Can I send a mail attachment that will automatically open

Hello,
Can I send a mail attachment that will automatically open when the recipient opens the message. Sometimes when I get attachments they are already open and sometimes I have to open them. Why is this?
Thanks

Hello Bobejoe.
Can I send a mail attachment that will automatically open
when the recipient opens the message.
No, fortunately.
Sometimes when I get attachments they are already open
This doesn’t make sense. What do you mean?
Why is this?
It isn’t.

Clicking on a picture or link that will automatically open up a 2nd window to view, but the window will open up but it appears blank

When clicking on a picture or link that will automatically open up a 2nd window to view, the window will open up but it will just appear blank and says Type a Web address in the top bar.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

CS3 Bugs - Can't select pictures... When is CS3 patch time?

I can't seem to select pictures... I CAN select them, but the
properties panel below doesn't change - so I can't change the
various properties unless I go into code view... Not a major bug,
but it's terribly annoying. I've had to leave DW8 installed in
order to get work done.
Everything else seems to be fine so far.

Me too. Try rebooting?

Can't Select/Edit File Name Text - they go blank

Sometimes when I try to select a file name to edit it, the name disappears when I first click it. This often happens in list view. If I switch to icon view, most of the times, but not always, I can then select the file name text. Sometimes if I switch back to list view, then I can select the file name text as expected, but again not always.
It is intermittent so I can't give any consistent info on how or when it happens.
Thanks,
Steven

Try this. Select the file and hit the enter key. Does that highlight the name without deleting it? If so, adjust your mouse click settings and see if that fixes the problem. If not, create a new admin account, log into, and see if the problem's gone. Report back.

How do I stop images when selected in Bridge from automatically opening in ACR?

For no reason that I can think of, When I click on a single image in Bridge to preview or to try and select multiple images to load as layers or merge to HDR, the first image clicked opens in ACR. How can i Stop this?

The images are RAW files. When I click to select the image it immediately opens in ACR. It won't let me preview the image in Filmstrip mode as it did before. It won't allow me to select multiple images as the first image selected opens ACR.

How can I select items from Bridge for a web gallery in CS4

I have installed the plug-in for Photoshop in order to create a web gallery. In the past, I have been able to choose items selected from Bridge, but now that function is greyed out and I can only choose a folder. Is there something I should download for Bridge in order to activate this option?

Thats right, they have to go to:
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Startup Scripts CS4/Adobe Photoshop/
Maybe you copied the files by mistake to the
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Startup Scripts CS4/Adobe Bridge/
or maybe you copied to the Library folder in your Home directory (User) instead, as you mentioned, you had to make the directory your self.
You could make a fast check by hitting «Command+Shift+G» shortcut from your desktop and paste the first link from this reply, then you should see something like this:
and if you can't recognize the structure above, you have located the problem.

DNG converter 8.6 - can't select pictures from sony a5000?

First of, have to say I'm a complete newbie to photoshop elements. As in, just purchased it today.
I just downloaded photoshop elements 12 from the mac app store and I'm on OS 10.9.4.
I have read that I can't open my sony a5000 raw files in elements 12 as the camera raw plug in is only up to 8.3. So I looked at downloading DNG converter to read my raw files. It says version 8.4 supports my camera so I downloaded it but when I go to select the files in my folder all the photos are "greyed out". I thought maybe if I download version 8.6 then it should work but same problem. Honestly really really frustrated I can't open the files in elements 12 in the first place and now after downloading a converter and still not working makes me want to just uninstall this all together.
Can someone please help me figure out why I can't open my files in DNG converter despite the version saying it supports my camera??
Thanks

You do need ACR 8.4 for the A5000. I would buy Elements from Adobe not the Mac app store so upgrades work better.
The DNG Converter should work, though. You need to single-click on the folder with the raw files in it, rather than open it to reveal the raw files. They are grayed out because the DNGC needs to work with a FOLDER not a file, so if you can see the files, then you’ve clicked down into the folder and go back up one, and just select the folder name.

I can't "Get Photos" through Bridge unless they are JPEGS ie. can't detect the RAW files on the SD card. I can with my Canon software and with Bridge on my laptop. I have Windows 8 on the desktop (which is where i have my problem) and Windows 7 on my lap

Does anyone else have this problem? Or better still, have a solution?

Never point Bridge at a camera card.
This excerpt is from a long-gone post by author Bruce Fraser:
Bruce Fraser - 4:17pm Jun 14, 04 PST (#5 of 21) Opening files directly from the camera is a bad idea for a variety of reasons*, and it most certainly isn't faster than using a FireWire or USB2 card reader.
         • Drains the camera battery
         • Runs the risk of the software you're using to open the images writing to the card and destroying the format
         • Runs a small but significant risk of USB power frying the camera
         • Slowest method known to mankind of getting images off a CF or SD card

I can't select Photoshop CC 2014 when using the "Open with" menu in Windows 7

I have recently installed CC 2014, and uninstalled my CC version. When I go to a jpeg, or any image file in windows explorer, I right-click and "open with" and it isn't listed on my program list to open the file with. I click on "browse programs", find the exe file in adobe-photoshop cc2014 folder and click OK, and it just goes back to the open with menu with no option for photoshop.
Any ideas on how I can get it on that list, so I can open these files from the file location, instead of opening up photoshop and then searching for the file location within photoshop?
Also, I don't have any problems opening up the pictures from within photoshop, just within windows explorer.

I'm having a similar problem, but only with jpg's. I have PS CS6, CC, and CC 2014. Other image file formats function normally with regard to the "open with" list. PS CC 2014 appears on the list. But with jpg's only PS CC appears on the "open with" list and 2014 can't be added by the browsing for it.
The curious thing is that if I have any of the three versions of Photoshop open, click on Photoshop CC in the "open with" list, the image opens in whatever version is already open on my computer. This is true of all image formats. No matter which version I pick from the "open with" list it opens in the currently running program. I use only the latest version so keeping it open all the time is an easy work around. I won't uninstall any of the earlier versions lest more file association quirks result. it would be nice to have this matter fixed.

Have downloaded v4 and cant save open tabs when exiting so that they automatically open when launching v4 the next time (which is s omething I could do with V3). Please can you let me know how to set this in v4

With v3 I regularly had 5 tabs open all the time and could save these on exit so that they opened automatically the next time without me having to click individually on each one via bookmarks. V4 does not appear to allow this as a default and I cant find an option to allow it to happen. Please advise

'''''#This will fix the problem for most I think:'''''
''Firefox 4.0 has a new feature that automatically saves your tabs when you close Firefox.''
Its seems that for many people, this feature was not enabled automatically, instead it is set on a different setting of 'show my homepage' or 'show a blank page'. But it is very easy to change, I just did it myself! Here is how to do it:
At the top left of the screen is an orange 'Firefox' box, click on it. On the right of the dropdown menu you will see 'Options'. Click on it. Then you will see another 'Options', click on it. This will bring up the Options menu.
The part we are interested in for this fix is where it says, 'When FireFox starts:'. There is a dropdown selection next to that sentance, click on the little down-arrow, and choose ' Show my windows and tabs from last time'. Then click on 'OK' at the bottom of the Options menu, this will close the menu.
You should be sorted now, I was. I hope it works for you too. To test it out, have a few tabs open, and close firefox. Then try open it. Those same tabs should re-appear. Holding thumbs & fingers crossed :)

Is it possible to select multiple files on the W8.1U1's SEARCH RESULTS window page? For instance, if 10 CPP files are found by the seraching mechanism, can I select all 10 files and have them open in Visual Studio at once?

TIA.

Brandon, this forum member is known since a long time ago an arrogant (he thinks he knows more than every other) and stupid(*) (full of misconceptions). His first post is a very good example of what I just wrote. How does he dare to suggest to use File
Explorer, if W8.1 already has a system built for doing just this search? Do I have to open File Explorer in the folder (or somewhere near) the item I'm looking for? What about the other items in folders above it? This suggestion is stupid(*). He even
asserts that I'm using Modern UI! I'm not! I'm using the desktop, but his misconceptions make him write such idiocies(*) with such arrogance: asserting what he doesn't know (arrogancy and stupidity). And more, this guy is no one to say he/he/he to me, because
I know he is what you deleted from my posts, and more, he is often crying, moaning and snivelling like a spoiled child in this forum and messing up any thread posting stupid(*) images of programs imagined/designed/developed by others. All posts from him in
this thread must be trashed (you should do it). He has nothing to contribute POSITIVELY in this thread, but just to MESS IT UP.
(*) stupid, I can write, after all, you didn't delete this word from this ... poster.
Now, look at the first reply: this forum member has no idea how much stupid is his 'work around'. And this 'work around' does not answer my question and even does address the environment I mentioned: W8.1 U1 search results window page, and not File Explorer!
His second post just reassures me he has no idea what is the searching mechanism I'm talking about. He even mentions Win-w(!) which proves he totally ignore what is the searching mechanism I'm talking about. A user like this one, must have many monitors to
keep him busy looking at them, and having excuses for not read and learn technical documentation. It's ignorance about technical aspects of computer issues that makes him post bad bug report and a bad idea in Connect site:
Using Get-Date -Format "CyM" to work around some bugs
https://connect.microsoft.com/PowerShell/feedback/details/884502/using-get-date-format-cym-to-work-around-some-bugs
Only total ignorance about PowerShell makes someone post such bad 'bug' report. He got critics about his bad post, but I'm sure he doesn't understand.
Column headers for alias should include DisplayName instead of just Name
https://connect.microsoft.com/PowerShell/feedback/details/908152/column-headers-for-alias-should-include-displayname-instead-of-just-name
In fact, the information displayed is already DisplayName, but this guy has no technical knowledge to understand what is happening.
These 2 forum members just messed up a thread that should be free of negative contributions, besides off topic.
