Cant get iphoto to be default for opening photo cd

Whenever i open the system preferences and try and change the actions when a picture cd is loaded to open with iphoto i get ignore and cant seem to change the option tried deleting preferences file but still get the same option wont chance from ignore. OSX 10.56 and iphoto 09

iPhoto is not an Image Viewer and so it can’t be set as one. It can only show you images that have first been imported to the database. Preview is the default image viewer on your Mac.

  • Setting Photoshop CS5 as the default for opening all photo files?

    How do I make Photoshop CS5 the default for opening all photo files?

    Close the jpeg in Photoshop! This procedure is done on an unopened (closed) file in the finder, Photoshop is not involved.
    Open a FINDER window, click ONCE to select your file (NOT double click to open it)
    Command I or in the Finder, File menu, select Get Info.
    In the GET INFO window, change the Open With item to Photoshop
    Click the CHANGE ALL button, You will get the warning "This change will apply to all Adobe Photoshop CS5.app documents with extension “.jpg”.
    Click CONTINUE and from now on all jpegs double clicked in the finder will automatically open in Photoshop

  • Setting quicktime 7.6.6 as default for opening all audio

    I am having a problem getting rid of or even finding an older version of qt 7 (7.4.5) which seems to exist somewhere on my computer and is set as my default for opening .wav files when I need them to be opened with 7.6.6. How can I find it if within my applications and utilities if the only thing that seems to exist there is 7.6.6? Is there also just some way to set 7.6.6 to be the new default to deal with all audio in the future. I know about going into 'get info' and setting the 'open with' option and then 'change all…' but that still only seems to affect the 'all' in the same folder and not on my whole computer. Would be nice not to have to do all these extra steps every time I need to open up a file. Thanks in advance for any insight.

    The update is for Tiger and Leopard only, not Snow Leopard.

  • How can I make CS4 the default for opening?

    Help! I have most versions of PS but I prefer CS4. I am a photographer. Forever CS4 was the default when opening photos. Something happened yesterday and now when I double click on a photo to open it it opens but not in CS4. Not sure what version it's opening in. But I want it to open in 4. I can right click each and every time to open in 4 but I open tons of photos all day long and that takes too long. How can I again make it so that CS4 is the default?
    Thank you.

    Thanks. I couldn't figure out what you meant.
    What does CMD I stand for?
    If I right click on a file I can open in CS4 but there's no 'change all' there, just option of opening in CS4 or something else.
    I open RAW files. Then later I open jpg files. I think they are opening in CS4 as RAW (not sure) but the jpgs are not. If I right click it says CS6 is the default -- first one listed and has (default) next to it.

  • Using Crystal Reports as the default for opening .rpt files

    Hi all,
    I know this is a simple question with a simple answer, but I'm baffled, so here goes. I'm using Crystal Reports 2008 and I have the Crystal Report Viewer installed on my computer. I want to open .rpt files with Crystal Reports 2008 as the default application, not Crystal Report Viewer.
    When I right-click the .rpt file I have three options, Crystal Report Viewer 2008, Microsoft Visual Studio Version Selector, and Choose Program. When I select Choose Program, then click the Browse button, Crystal Reports is not available as one of the programs to choose.
    When I look at the programs available via the Control Panel, I see Crystal Reports 2008, but I'm not able to select it as the default for opening .rpt files. I'm assuming the program file is in my Program Files folder somewhere in the Business Objects folder, but I'm not sure which file I need to set Crystal as the default program. Can someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Crystal Reports 12
    then crw32.exe

  • HT204161 my grandson deleted pages from my ipad and I cant get it back without paying for it

    part of iworks has been deleted from my ipad air by me grandson and I cant get pages back without paying for it. Can anyone help?

    As long as you are logged into the App Store with the same Apple ID that was used to purchase Pages in the first place then it should be downloadable in the Purchased section of the App Store.

  • Cant get iPhoto to update

    I upgraded to Yosemite on my mac and I cant update iPhoto at all (or Final Cut Pro).  I keep getting the message that the update isnt available because it was bought by another user or the item was refunded or cancelled.

    I cant even do that because I already downloaded Yosemite.  even before yosemite, if I clicked on iphoto it would ask to merge (i think)  I did that on my ipad but didnt sync all the folders.
    Sorry but that make no sense at al - either in the context of your question or as a separate question
    You original question is about getting iphoto to update
    Cant get iPhoto to update
    And you further state
      I keep getting the message that the update isnt available because it was bought by another user or the item was refunded or cancelled.
    the answer to that is
    If you are logged in with the Apple ID that was used to purchase iPhoto or to set up the computer if it came preinstalled then quit iPhoto, backup your iPhoto library  and drag the iphoto application to the trash (do not empty the trash yet) and then go to the App store and install iPhoto
    If that does not work contact the App store support - link is on the right of the App store window
    What happens exactly when you try the answer to your question?

  • When using tethered capture I often get this notification "The metadata for this photo has been changed by both Lightroom and another application". This slows or stalls the loading of incoming photos. How do I find out which other application is changing

    When using tethered capture I often get this notification "The metadata for this photo has been changed by both Lightroom and another application". This slows or stalls the loading of incoming photos. How do I find out which other application is changing the metadata and stop it?

    Thanks Sean,
    I've had a look at the TC settings dialog and tried to keep it as simple as possible. I also had a copy of LR 4 on the hard drive so have trashed that also incase of any conflicts. LR seems to be running ok now but as said it's an intermittent problem.
    I also have a copy of Capture One on the hard drive so am going to uninstall that also in case it is trying to launch.

  • HT2506 how do you set Preview as the default for opening pdf in browser?

    How do I set the Preview application to be the default for viewing PDF's in while in Safari?  Previously, while in Safari and clicking on links to PDF's, they would display with buttons on the bottom that made it simple to view and download the PDF.  Since updating Adobe Reader it seems Reader is now the default application for viewing PDF's accessed from the internet.  I haven't been able to figure out how to revert back to Preview..... 

    I did this and now Safari won't open the form at all.
    I put the files back and it opens in Adobe.
    When I save the files to desktop they open in Preview. But I am trying to read pdf's(? forms) while in Safari.
    Adobe does not work smoothly in Safari and scrolling to read is a nightmare.
    OS X 10.8.5
    This problem came up within the last few months.
    Before everything opened in Preview perfectly.

  • Default for opening pdf files keeps changing back to 'save file' after I set it to open in firefox

    Since upgrading to the latest Firefox version, my options for opening adobe pdf files have changed. I set it to 'use Adobe Acrobat in Firefox', it works absolutely fine, then some time over the next few days it changes itself back to 'save file'. Then I have to open options and change it again. This happened to me some years back with a much earlier version of Firefox - I can't remember how it was resolved, I think it just stopped doing it after a while. But it is most irritating!

    I echo the request for Help! I've added Options to my Toolbar so I can more easily change "Save File" to "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)" as the default. Why does Firefox keep reverting to the save file default?

  • Cant get Palm desktop to download for a Tungsten-E

    hi guys, I have an OLD Tungsten-E, and I cant get the Palm Desktop to download to my new(er) windows 7....any ideas?
    thanks!

    When you attempt to HotSync, what happens?  Any error message?
    IIRC, the internet connection part was nothing important.. Are you saying Palm Desktop does not appear on your computer if you choose "No."?
    Is the HotSync Manager running?  Can you see the red and blue icon in the tool tray of the PC?
    Might try a "Clean Uninstall"/reinstall of Palm Desktop.
    Here are the clean uninstall instructions.
    You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something happens. You can find your data files by going to C:\Program Files\Palm or Palm One. Highlight your Palm Desktop username and right click and copy. Then go to your PC desktop, right click on a blank spot and select paste. You can skip the first step above because of the data not being current.
    Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do with Palm Desktop from your computer. Like the above folder, delete the Palm folder. Once this is done, you will need to delete some registry keys from your PC Operating System registry.
    Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC to not start up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel you are unsure of yourself, see if you have a friend that can help you or a PC technician that you can pay to help you. This will show them everything they need to delete. To retain your current Registry settings, we need to do a backup of the Registry.
    On the PC, go to start and run type "regedit" without quotes
    Highlight MY COMPUTER, go to File --> export. Should pop up with a Save As box. Current location is fine should be in My Documents or you can change to a location you will remember. In the file name box, type "Regbackup[todaysdate]" i.e. Regbackup07072008. Next, the hard part.
    The easiest way to make sure your working with the correct key, highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you, are you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
    If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician. BUT do not turn off your computer.
    The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here but if they are delete them)
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install *
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc. * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource * HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
    Next reboot your computer
    Then reinstall your Palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If it asks you for a username and you synced your device before, put in 'test" if you did not sync before you create a hotsync name.
