Change Cloaking Default File Types

Hello,
I've looked everywhere, and I can't figure this one out. I
want to change the default file types for cloaking. Even better
would be to be able to add default directory names (It's
Dreamweaver--so I can dream, can't I?). Is there a way to edit the
list of default file types for cloaking? I can't figure out how to
do it.
Thanks!

Unless there's been a change in Lion, use the 'get info' selection by right-clicking on the file, and choose the alternative application from there.
Below the drop-down for the app selection, there's a button to change all files of that type to open with the chosen app.

Can I change the default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File to '*.prc' ?

Want to change the 'default' extension for PL/SQL source to '*.prc'
When navigating 'File' / 'Save As', and selecting the 'File Type' list box,
The default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File is '*.pls'.
Can I change the default 'File Type' for PL/SQL Source File to '*.prc' ?
I have followed , 'Tools', 'Preferences' , 'File Types' and added '.prc' as 'Sql Script' file type, because (PL/SQL Source) is not present in the list.

You can certainly overwrite the 'Save As' extension as you are saving the file. I have added an ER for more control over this functionality.

Screen shots - how do I change the default file type

Screen shots using command, shift, 4: I used to get pdf files from the screen shot command, now I get PNG files. How do I change the default file type from PNG to PDF? PNGs are a pain.

Also, there are utilities like OnyX that will change the screenshot settings.
But this AppleScript is my favorite.

I want to change the default file type in the Open File dialog - e.g. from Word to All Files

I want to change the default file type in the Open File dialog - most recently specifically in Adobe Acrobat, from Adobe Files to All Files, so I don't have to do it again and again manually. Is this possible? Is it an OS setting or an app-specific setting?

The Apps set the default to the file type it can open, sort of. However, there normally isn't a type specified. All document types that the app can handle will be offered.
Adobe, and Microsoft, tend to roll their own dialogs, so they may not be standard. I don't have Acrobat, so I can't verify that. If Adobe is puting a file type selector in their open file dialogs, it would be up to them to store the preferences.
EDIT: I checked Reader, and i see what you mean. Not terribly useful.

How can I change the default "file type" in the open file dialog when using Firefox on certain web pages?

I work for a bankruptcy attorney. We use the Court's file upload to file our documents. When I am on the Court's site and I have to pick a file to upload, the "open file" dialog box pops up. In Firefox, the default "file type" is always "image" files. I need it to be "all files". How can I change this setting?

Two observations.
First — "Tools-> ...." is specific to Acrobat X and XI. It did not exist prior to Acrobat X.
Second — Acrobat 9 Pro / Standard (nor earlier release) does not support viewing a PDF page containing a scanned image and performing a right-click ... Save Image As.
The context menu provided by Acrobat 9 Pro with a right-click on a scanned image is:
The context menu,from a right-click with the TouchUp Object tool selected, for Acrobat 9 Pro is:

How do I change the default file saving type

I have seen this question all over the web, but none of the answers I have found apply to my version of Photoshop (CS5).
I want to change the default file type when I save files. I don't want PSD or PDF, I want PNG.
I want to hit CTRL + SHIFT + S like normal, but I don't want to select PNG from the drop-down menu when I go to name my items.
I don't want to create an action for each file I work with - I want this to be a default setting change across all of photoshop on every file.
Any help? Adobe has been of zero assistance.

I have already tried the "Actions" method - which is glitchy in and of itself!
What I am doing is very simple - I am making photo slide shows. I create a new file that is 1920 x 1280 (the size of my display) and then I open 100+ images. I copy and paste each image into the 1920x1280 file so that all images display the same on my screen when I run the slides. I re-size and adjust the position of each image so it appears how I want.
So I copy and paste my first image into the 1920x1280 canvas and then hit F2 (the button I applied the save as PNG action to). It saves the file. Then I copy and paste another image into the file and hit F2. Rather than creating a new file (or even a copy) Photoshop writes over the last file I made. YAY! More wasted time!
It blows my mind that a function as simple as "Change default file type" is missing from such an expensive, accredited program. How can their software engineers overlook something that hundreds of other people (like me) have posted a need for online? Something so simple? Andy why is it my job now to learn how to do scripting for Photoshop to add in a feature that should be standard? Is that why I pay $50 a month for this software or why I bought CS5 outright for more than $1000?
So that's what I am trying to do - make a slide show where each image is exactly the same size. It seems the only option Adobe gives me is "WASTE MORE OF YOUR TIME"

There is no authorisation required for changing the file type. You are saying its enabled, then you can change it.

Making php the default file type

I've got a client set up to use Contribute to edit a PHP
site. When he creates a new page, the default file extension is
.htm and it needs to be .php. I looked for some way to change the
default file type in the Preferences but I can't find it. Is there
a way to do this?

Try going into Administer Website settings and select New
Pages> then select default file extension and add .php.

CS4 Set default file type when placing file

The File->Place dialog box has a default file type of 'Importable files.' Is it possible to set the default to All files (or anything else)? Making the change manually does not seem to stick. I have the same general question regarding File->Open. A search of the forums returned one hit (unanswered) in the Dreamweaver forum.
Thank you.
Dick Conrad

Peter:
Good question. One of our editors made this request, and I believe that he works with files that lack extensions. But controlling the default would also let us go in the other direction: quickly see only .rtf or .txt files, for example.
Any trick would be impractical if it lived in InDesign Defaults. All ID users get the same copy, and no two editors would want the same filter.
Thanks for your response.

Default file type?

Hey there,
.Wav is my current default file type for session files, and while I'm sure I set it that way myself somewhere along the way, I've had difficulty retracing the menu steps to reset it to .mp3 for a session I use daily. Even tried recreating the whole session to see if the option was available from scratch, but no dice. Advice?

Audition's internal file format is, to all intents and purposes, the same as a wav file. Although strictly speaking, the audio isn't a wav file until it's stored that way. The reason for using wav as a format is that it is uncompressed, and therefore of the highest quality you can get - limited only by the quality of your audio device. In fact Audition uses an extended form internally (a 32-bit floating point format), because it can be scaled without loss, which means that quality can even be preserved through massive amplitude changes whilst you're working on the file.
MP3, on the other hand, is a compressed format, and as such is only intended for distribution purposes, not for production or original recording (despite what quite a few portable recorder manufacturers seem to think...)
So if you open an MP3 file in Audition, the first thing that happens is that it's decoded back to a wav file, and that is what Audition plays. And if you wish to save this again as an MP3 file, then it will be re-encoded. And that, unfortunately is significant; every time you decode and re-encode an MP3 file, you lose even more quality, because the compression isn't lossless. This is the reason, in fact, why MP3 isn't a production format. With wav files, you lose nothing by working on them, storing them, and then working on them again, but that's never been true of MP3, and never will be. This applies to all compressed formats, incidentally - MP3 isn't singled out!

Suppress the Default File Types dialogue, Office 2013 C2R

Hi.
We are doing a rather large Office 365 Proplus deployment using click-to-run via SCCM. We have the relevant group policys configured for the most part but we can't figure out how to get rid of the Default File Types dialogue box that pops up during the first
run of any of the Office applications. It asks the user if he/she wants to use Office XML or OpenOffice document formats.
When using the MSI-version and a custom install the administrator can answer this before creating the deployment package, but this is obviously not possible using C2R.
We have tried to set HKEY_USERS\<user_SID>\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\General
/v ShownFileFmtPrompt to 1, but it doesn't work. We have also set the default file type for each application but on first run, the dialogue box still shows.
How can we achieve a simple deployment from a user perspective? The picture below is the setting we want to configure.
Best regards
Joakim

Dito. This should have been solved when Office 2013 launched and there's still no official solution?

How can i change a pdf file type to another file type

how can i change a pdf file type to another file type

You can copy the contents and paste it into a Word file. Just don't expect everything to transfer or to retain all of the formatting.

Will EC support setting default file type and Open With from file menu?

The default file types I can live without, but at least allow for Open With on right click from Windows Explorer.
I currently have EC set in the Open With programs list, but EC does not comply for any files I opt to open it with (.css, .php, .html etc).
EC open but not the file I choose.
Also, even though the above use case is not ideal when if I do attempt an Open With when EC is already open, a new application session starts instead of attempting to open in the currently active app frame. It would be ideal to allow for single app frame, multiple files when Open With is employed.
Darrell

Hey Darrell,
Thanks for the feedback. How Edge Code treats files is definitely something we know isn't ideal and it's something we're looking at fixing soon. There's currently a story on the Brackets backlog that adresses the Open With issue - https://trello.com/c/GhF1Bgf9
And it based on howit ranks in that priority it looks like we could potentially take that into Edge Code over the next couple of months.
This is definitely a feature that we think is important before we consider ourselves 1.0 so it's high priority.
