Changed drive letter after installation of Creative Suite, cannot open by double clicking file.

Recently my computer died so I had to put my harddrive in another computer. The drive letter was different from my old drive. I didn't notice this at first and re-installed all my software that I wiped for a new Windows install on the partition (including the Creative Suite).
When I tried to open another program that relied on the old install of the drive - it failed. So I changed the letter back to what it was originally as loads of programs installed on that drive relied on it.
Of course when I changed the letter path of the drive all my Adobe Suite related files are no longer associated with the programs. When I try to manually open the file with the program - eg. E:/Program Files(x86)/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop/Photoshop.exe it doesn't set the default program, so every time I have to open photoshop and browse to the file I want to open (ctrl+O).
Any solutions to this without installing the suite again?

I've tried by going through this dialogue here:
When I try to use the .exe to open the .psd it doesn't set it as a choice as if I didn't select it. I can set the default program to open it to notepad, hl2.exe etc. etc. but not the program im after.
P.S. I don't know my login details because they are saved automatically at home. Hence new account.

  • After installing itunes update I cannot open my itunes  music files.  How can I fix this problem?

    I installed the latest Itunes update and after installing I cannot open my ITunes music files.  How do I fix this problem. 

    Hey Joey BOD,
    It sounds like you can't open your Music app on your iPhone after the update? First, try force closing the Music app if it is open in multitasking, which you can find out how to do here:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5137
    And if that doesn't work, I would reset the device:
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    via: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    And if that doesn't resolve the issue then I would backup the device to iTunes and restore it. Just be cautious and back up first, since restoring deletes all content and settings:

    Did you ever install Acrobat? It is not installed automatically with CS, but requires an extra installation step.

    after reloading adobe creative suite cs3 on my mac 10.4.11 acrobat will not open any pdfs it previously opened. help!

    hello.   hey, thanks very much for writing back.  i got some good info with a search or two.  (info about what regedit is and what corresponds to it in OS X -- regedit allows you to edit "preference" keys for individual programs,  OSX's equivalent for these keys are the .plists in User & System: Preferences and Application Support)
    what i ended up doing was uninstalling Premiere Pro (not the suite, just PPro).   Then i deleted a few preference files:
    from User /Preferences/Adobe:
    com.adobe.AdobePremierePro.plist
    com.Adobe.Premiere Pro.5.0.plist
    and from System Preferences:
    the file:  Adobe Premiere Pro Prefs
    and..
    /.../Premiere Pro/5.0/...
    AMEPrefs.xml     (i noticed that there's also a preference file in Media Encoder's own folder so i didn't sweat this one)
    Debug Database.txt
    Placeholder Preset.epr
    PostEncodeCmds.pref
    PresetCache.xml
    Trace Database.txt
    NOTE:
    of course i don't know if deleting any files beyond the 2 .plist files in User Prefs was necessary, but...  it seems to have worked.
    I then reinstalled Premiere Pro CS5, and fired up an old project and i've got playback of HD and DV files, and snappy editing and rendering,  so hopefully i'm good to go.   I'm just going to stick with v5.0.0 because i actually don't remember ever having any trouble with it, and i don't remember v5.0.4 adding anything i was 'missing' or 'needed'
    hopefully, this thread will be useful for any future folks that run into trouble - and it's got a solution for both Windows and OS X
    happy editing,
    peace

  • Changed Drive Letter Still In Restore Loop

    I have an iPod mini (2nd Gen) that is in the restore loop and I have changed the drive letter. I am using Windows XP. I can read and write to the iPod. I have tried it (changing drive letter and restore) on another computer and with iTunes 10 and iTunes 8. Can anyone please help?

    ok over 100 people have look at this and on one has an answer to suggest?
    Some one must know what is going on.
    Does anyone have the files that belong on the hard drive of the mini? I think that is all that is needed for iTunes to recognize the mini.

  • Windows8:integrated flash player corrupted after uninstall Adobe Creative Suite

    Initially, after conversion to Windows8, the flashplayer worked fine. After uninstalling Adobe Creative Suite trial software, the flash player corrupted and only the video portion works, no audio. Followed every single forum solution on Adobe Help site, endured 3+ hours of hold time with Miscrosoft warranty department, to no avail. Downloaded uninstall for the flash player and then uninstalled it and the system still reports the flash player is integrated in Windows 8!!!!!! and functioning. Do I have to re-install the operating system?
    Please, someone? Anyone?

    Do I have to re-install the operating system?
    Nope.
    Repair Internet Explorer: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318378
    That'll put the embedded Flash Player back.

  • Photoshop CS6 cannot open or create new file.  This happened after running CCleaner

    Photoshop CS6 cannot open or create new file.  This happened after running CCleaner

    Hi, I've been asked to join this discussion. CCleaner is a nice tool, but if you used the Registry Cleaner that came with it, it might have done something to Photoshop's registry entries. There is that danger in using them.
    One thing CCleaner does is leave a backup of the registry, or you can use Windows System Restore to go to that point before you ran the Cleaner. Let's go with System Restore. Review the instructions.
    System Restore - Microsoft Windows
    If you suspect a virus, I'd like to direct you here http://bleepingcomputer.com/
    That would be the "Am I infected?" forum.
    They have the tools, you run them, and copy and paste the logs that are generated. They are very good at this, but it is super important you follow directions and don't leave until the process is completed.

  • Same message 2 dnld Plugin, (Java), and Adobe Reader: Error 2203.Database: C:\Windows\Installer\ced2e.ipi. Cannot open database file. System error -2147287035.E

    Spent all afternoon downloading Java plugiins and Adobe reader; each with the following "failure message."
    Error 2203.Database: C:\Windows\Installer\ced2e.ipi. Cannot open database file. System error -2147287035.Error 2203.Database: C:\Windows\Installer\ced2e.ipi. Cannot open database file. System error -2147287035.

    This is going to sound lame, but... have you shut down and restarted Windows since this problem began? Sometimes the Windows Installer starts behaving erratically, perhaps due to a backlog of deferred updates, and the only way to get around it is to reboot.

  • Can I change Adobe ID of a CS6 creative suite installation, after it's been installed?

    Can I change the Adobe ID which was used to install CS6 creative suite, after it's been installed? One of the students has used his own adobe ID for an installation (licence for 20 users)  and I would like to have them registered only under the admin's Adobe ID so need to reverse the association of his personal ID with his CS6 installation?
    Thanks!
    Niek

    No if you wish to change the association/registration of Creative Suite 6 you will need to contact our support team as indicated by Mylenium in message #1.

  • Ipod touch nano recovery and restore loop even after changing drive letter twice!

    iPod Touch Nano
    Software version: 1.2
    OS: Windows 7 32bit
    iTunes version: 10.6
    I can't restore or do anything with my iPod nano touch.  I followed instructions and the KB (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1493#changedrive) that recommended changing the drive letter in Windows.  I changed the drive twice, restarted the machine, followed the instructions to restore after the recovery message, but still nothing.  I even uninstalled / reinstalled iTunes.
    I also reset the iPod multiple times (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320), which is the last step recommended in the final KB article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1441
    This is very frustrating and a pretty poor software design by Apple!  I am pretty sure my drive letter is free. 
    I also tried my Macbook Pro but still same issue.
    Any other ideas to what I can do to fix this or do I need to go to the Apple store to fix this at this point?
    Many thanks

    UPDATE:
    While the iPod Nano would not even turn on in the two computers I tried earlier at home (and posted above about), when I plugged it in on my work computer (PC, Windows 7), the iPod Nano turned on fine as a brand new set up on this computer's iTunes and now it is working. 
    Very strange that it would crap out at home every time even though I changed the drive letter and followed all the other instructions.
    I have to yet check if I can sync at home or not or if it will ask me to restore again!

  • Optical Drive can't find Adobe Creative Suite 6 disc

    As written in the topic, my optical drive can't seem to find my Creative Suite 6 Master Collection disc.
    (I am using Windows 7 Ultimate)
    Every other disc I tried from BD to DVD-ROM or even CD-ROM worked perfectly fine.
    The disc itself is in a good condition (no scratches and such) when I try to open it manually it sais "no disc found" and the drive opens itself so I can insert a disc.
    When I tried to force autorun with "run" it gave me the same message "no disc found".
    Anyone with ideas how to solve this problem?
