Clicking an image created in Photoshop launches the program but...

Not sure where else to ask this. There isn't a Photoshop area.
New OS9 to OSX here. Going from Photoshop 6 (don't laugh) to CS1. When I click on an image created in Photoshop it launches the program but does not open the image. I have to either go into the "open" command and do it manually or do it by finding the document in my HD. Either way it's a drag and I suspect it's not the way it's supposed to be. It's a real time-loser.
The only thing I can think of is it's because I'm clicking on an image that was created on my G3 using Photoshop 6. On the other hand it DOES launch the program so I am not exactly sure what is going on.
Has anyone had the same experience?
Thanks.

What happens if you click on Get Info and "open with" and set the image type to always use CS1?
Other thought would be to use Onyx or Tiger Cache Cleaner to update the "Launch Services" which is what connects and controls applications and document types.
(Might even want to consider Pogue's "Mac OS X: The Missing Manual" or something.)
Make sure you have Tiger compatible programs, don't have something installed which is not (Norton Utilities is out).
Set up a new test account or even a test system on another drive. And use that for doing repairs. Word of caution: never update OS X without a backup of your system.

  • Firefox gets stuck at startup from launching the program but doesn't by starting with launching a hyperlink

    if I launch FF by the desktop-button or from the start bar, it will be stuck immediately after the window is displayed. if I launch by clicking an hyperling e.g. in an e-mail, FF works correctly, the same if launching as administrator. We tried several times to re-install FF also by deleting all profile data. java also has been deleted. Th problem doesn't disappear. FF also works correctly if starting it in a different accont on the computer.
    The problem started after having opened a hyperlink, where a advert popped up which I clicked off immediately.
    The problem occures also immediately after re-installing with unchanged factory settings.

    Thank you for your tip.
    I deleted the desktop-link and made a new one by dragging from the firefox.exe file.
    But the problem still exists.
    Using FF in admin-mode is no good solution, because you always get asked, wether you want to let Firefox change your system.
    Is there another possible solution?

  • Trying to install Lightroom on a iMac, iOS 10.9.5, launching the program is unsuccessful, results in a crash report

    After installing LR5, I try to launch the program but I receive a message saying LR5 has unexpectedly quit. Anyone who can help with this issue?
    This is part of the crash report:
    Application Specific Information:
    *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'LuaRunException', reason: 'AgPathUtils.getStandardFilePath: can't create directory at: /Users/kjetilstubbberud/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom'

    while I can download it I cannot install it.
    What happens when you try?  How much free space do you have on your boot drive? In preparation to installation I booted into Maverick's Recovery volume and repaired both the disk permissions and disk. Then I ran the Yosemite installer. Give that a try and see if it helps.

  • How can I convert an image created in Photoshop into a format that Java's ImageIO library will take?

    Hi all,
    I've been trying to write an image resize tool to use the Lancoz resample algorithm to resize images to a high standard in Java.  The library with the algorithm/filter in it is mortennobel's image scaling library and it takes a buffered image as an input and returns the resized image as desired.  However the trouble I’m having is that the ImageIO library in Java, a standard library, which converts images given to its read method to buffered images doesn't accept certain images created in Photoshop and so it throws an exception.  My library needs to be fully automated to process possible thousands of images at a time and so manually converting them by resaving them as JPEG's is really feasibly.  Is there some way I can convert these images from Adobes Exif format to standard JFIF format?  I've tried simple inserting the APP0 marker from a JFIF image in-between the SOI and APP1 marker but the ImageIO library still failed.
    The above image is a screenshot of the binary in hex of one of the images that cause an Invalid Format exception when passed to ImageIO.
    Any help you could offer me with this would be much appreciated.
    Kind regards and thank you,

    NB: I previously posted this post in Developers but was told to post it in a Photoshop forum so apologies if this is the incorrect formum

    The image scaling library does have a BiCubicFilter in it so I'll experiment around with them and see what happens.  As for the imageIO library I think it accepts Exif image types, but still for some reason it just doesn't like Adobe Photoshop types.  Maybe its the colour map it doesn't like I just can't seem to work out what's wrong which is slightly frustrating but looking round to see if I can find an answer

    I did try to uninstall and reinstall.  It messed up my computer.  I had to "RESTORE" from the prior days backup.  This was not helpful at all.  I'm used to losing all my stuff when I connect to iTunes, that's a whole other issue, but now I'm completely banned from any updates to my phone at all.  Geeze.......

    My CS6 program that has never had a problem before, is not telling me that there is an error and that it "unexpectedly quit" when I simply try to launch the program.  I have restarted my computer several times.  It does the same thing each time.  So then I tried uninstalling the program and re-installing.  It said that it could not install due to an error.  So I STILL can't launch my program.  I don't know what to do.  Any help would be appreciated.  I have to edit photos for a photoshoot and return them tomorrow. :/

  • When "Edit in Photoshop" in lightroom photoshop opens the picture but without the changes I made in lightroom

    when "Edit in Photoshop" in lightroom photoshop opens the picture but without the changes I made in lightroom
    Please help me

    Hi mariad91843143,
    To enable the non-destructive workflow and the powerful features of Photoshop CC, the RAW image will need to be opened into Photoshop whilst, in the meantime, keeping our Lightroom changes so that we can work on them later. Instead of using the ‘Edit in Adobe Photoshop’ option in Lightroom – CMD +E (Mac) or CTRL +E (PC) – the option ‘Open as Smart Object in Photoshop’ will be used.
    This is a very useful tutorial to understand how to manage the workflow between Photoshop and Lightroom Canon Professional Network - Lightroom & Photoshop CC workflow (Pt. 1): Smart Objects ....

    Hello Deb,
      Something fishy going on with those particular files. But without looking at them directly I couldn't say what. Usually in a case like this the problem is some of the metadata that is attached to the file. Where did these files come from? A camera, a scanner, the internet?
      An explanation about the Watched Folder function: It looks for changes to a folder, not just automatically grabbing whatever files are in it. Generally, you want to select an empty folder as a Watch Folder. Once this has been set up, as you add files to this folder they will be imported into the Organizer. If you start with a folder full of images, those will be ignored, any new items will be added.
