CS6 Hide file type in tabs

Is there a way to hide the file type next to the file name in the open files tabs? I don't need to see this and would give me more room for having more tabs on my laptop.
Any suggestions would be appeciated.
Thanks

I'm confused. Are you talking about the tabs at the top of the Document window. If so, they don't display the file type. All they display is the filename (including the extension). If you want to see the extension, what is it that you want to do with the tabs?
On the other hand, are you talking about removing the Type column in the Files panel? If so, you can hide it by going to Site > Manage Sites, and clicking the Edit button. In the Site Setup dialog box, expand Advanced Settings, and select File View Columns.
Select Type, and then click the Edit icon. In the dialog box that opens, deselect the Show checkbox.
This has to be done individually for each site. There isn't a global setting.

QuickTime crashes at startup and on File Types tab

I have a client who has been trying to install iTunes on Windows XP SP3 32-bit. The iTunes installation would fail every time towards the end and rollback. I tracked down Quicktime as the culprit. Quicktime would crash whenever I tried to launch the player. When I tried to uninstall the Quicktime already on the system, that uninstall would fail as well. I used the Windows Installer cleanup tool to remove QuickTime and followed instructions here for removing the leftover QT files from the Program Files and Windows System folders.
I was able to install the latest version of QT, but it then had the same issues, crash when bringing up the player and unable to uninstall again. I then used Revo Uninstaller which was able to remove QT and all the files and file associations. After that thorough cleanup, I installed QT again, but with the same results. I did notice a few things.
I can bring up the QT control panel and switch to any of the tabs except "File Types". It crashes when I try to select that tab. The last time I did the install at the final dialog of the installtion it has a button to allow you to set the file types. When I pushed that button, the installtion did not crash, but you could hear the computer's HD working very hard and nothing ever happened even after 7-8 minutes. I was able to click the finish button on the installation and the install finished, but I was left with the same crashing problem and inability to uninstall.
The computer is clean of any malware and spyware and I've tried disabling the AV temporarily while doing these installs/uninstalls, but that's no help.
He really wants to get iTunes installed but we can't get past this QT issue.

many thanks.
I think we'd better see if some other application (other than QuickTime itself) has dropped old QuickTime componentry in the system files on the PC. (If there's a version mismatch between the old componentry and the "QuickTime proper" componentry, that can create similar-looking symptoms, including uninstall errors.)
So we'll go looking for the older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
First we'll need to change some view options on the PC.
1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
2. In the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
5. Click OK.
Now in My Computer, open your C drive.
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "system32" folder.
What files and/or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file/folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Set file type associations in Adobe Bridge for Photoshop CS6

Is there a way I can edit the registry so that in Adobe Bridge, under edit, preferences, file type associations, the jpg extension is forced to use the 32-bit version of Photoshop? I can do it manually, but is there a registry key i can export to apply it to multiple computers?

Yes, in theory, but it is generally not recommended. But that location would depend on what OS you are on. This video give the locations for the Photoshop files, Bridge would just be in a neighboring folder: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-complete-picture-with-julieanne-kost/how-to-reset-photoshop- cs6s-preferences-file/

Bridge 6 will not open common file types - e.g., jpeg, but CS6 has no problem with them

I had had CS5.1 and CS6 on this PC. I uninstalled CS5.1; now, I can open common file types (eg.g, *.jpf, *.bmp) directly from CS6. However, Bridge 6 triggers an error message to the effect that "Windows cannot find (....\CS5.1) - in other words, Windows still wants to associate file types in Bridge *^* to CS 5.1 - not to CS6. As a result, bridge is effectively dead in the water.

Yet another case of what happens when you uninstall an old version with a newer one present.
The old version takes a lot of registry items with it on the way out, leaving empty pointers to itself rather than the new version still present. It's as if the old version uninstaller can't imagine the possibility of anything newer, so it just says to the OS "Photoshop is no longer installed". It's not just file associations, Lightroom users have reported similar problems with "Edit in Photoshop".
Sometimes these pointers can be easily re-established, but more often a full uninstall/reinstall is needed, maybe with a run of the CC cleaner tool tossed in for good measure.
This happens all the time, posts like this trickle through the forum at a steady state. I can't imagine why this has never been acknowledged, and why Adobe officials keep saying that it's perfectly safe to uninstall previous versions. It's not. Yes, it could well be that the bug, or whatever you prefer to call it, is ultimately in the Windows registry. But this happens with such solid regularity that some official recognition would be in order.
The safe procedure is to always uninstall in strict reverse version order, then reinstall.

Hide a type of file System wide not just the extension*

Is it Possible & if So Howto hide a type of file System wide not just the extension*
Am trying to HIDE the Associated file for Photo Processing software in Finder, its a Specific file to the Program & holds the Raw data text Processed Info
. Would mean I would need to change each File individually
Is there a way/apple script?
Knowledge or experience would be Appreciated
Thanks

I followed these instructions and they work, but I also get errors. Here are two files in the directire, and the contents of ~/.profile, I called the function killextension:
I run the command to hide the PDF:
Note the two errors. Thank you very much, BTW. No more Dropbox attributes files!

When adding ringtones (created by ringtone app) they show in music tab nor tones. the file type in 'get info' is 'ringtone'. Why is this?

When adding ringtones (created by ringtone app) they show in music tab nor tones. the file type in 'get info' is 'ringtone'. Why dont they display in the 'tones' tab in itunes? How can I get them to display under 'tones' not 'music'.

Well, I tried rebuilding the Launch services with the command listed but still no luck. After having no luck with that and deleting caches, etc....I also, went to my home (user) directory and in Preferences, I deleted the com.apple.launchservices.plist file. I restarted and checked and still the same result.
Also, I want to emphasize again that the file type I am discussing DOES actually launch with the correct application. (Cubase files in my example).
But it is just annoying that ALL of my Cubase files display the Pro Tools application icon, and in Get Info they are listed to open with Pro Tools. But they actually do launch Cubase if double clicked.
And one other VITAL note....if I open Get Info for one of these files, and change the Open With from Pro Tools to Cubase....then that choice DOES "stick" and retain. (if I "don't" also click Change All)
It's only when I click "Change All" that it DOESN'T stick and the list selection jumps back to Pro Tools. I hope that may offer some clarity.
Thanks for the tips but I am still back at square one.

File type icons in CS6 Design and Web Premium

Hello everyone.
I am running Windows 7, 64 bit. I have recently upgraded from CS5.5 Design Premium to CS6 Design and Web Premium.
I the process, I lost the association of file types (such as .psd) with their relevant programs, which I have now recified.
However, the filetype icons that are associated with each program, in most cases, don't seem to have assigned themselves to their respecitive icons. For example, .psd files now show as a white document with the blue Ps square icon in the centre, and the same for InDesign etc. Oddly, Illustrator has worked and has assigned it's icons correctly.
For example:
I can't find a method of editing specific file types icons - even then, I wouldn't know where to find the particular icon sets.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance either way.

I used the CS Cleaner (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html) and followed the steps its really easy.. but ur gonna have to re install you Creative Suite all u do for the cleaner is open it up then select english (e) ->enter->Agree (Y)->enter->All (1) (which is the first option for a full clean i guess)->enter->Product Number its just basically asking you to input your choice number again (1)->enter and should tell u its all done then after u install CS again go to start-> default programs->associate file type->.psd for example->double click it and select Photoshop even though its probably already selected >.< but just do it again cuz it will refresh all the files on the coputer and whala you should c the correct file dysplay Heres pictures of my files before and after as proof

Assign file types back to CS6 Applications

At this point I had to let go of my CC subscription. I've been waiting on a big contract to get finalized so I could justify renewing the whole suite of apps.
I left CC on my machine so I wouldn't have to re-download it all if I start it up again in a week or two.
The problem I am having is on my PC when I try to open a JPG in Adobe Bridge CS6 it opens in the expired Photoshop CC. Bridge CS6 will not allow you to re-assign the file type association with Photoshop CS6. It forces it into Photoshop CC. Same thing with Windows file type associations. I can try to point .JPG to the .exe for Photoshop CS6 all I want, but it automagically replaces it with CC.
How do it get back control of my machine to tell it to open things in CS6 for now until I can renew CC? I realize you might answer, "just uninstall CC" but should it be that difficult?
Thanks.

John,
Sorry if I didn't make it clear. I did go to WIndows tool to change file type associations. It let me specify Photoshop CS6, however, as soon as you make the choice it re-assigns it to Photoshop CC. It's like in a death spiral you can can't get away from.

Why does CC have less file types than CS6?

I have both DW CS6 and CC installed on my system. Can anyone tell me why CS6 has more file types available from the "file/new" menu than CC has? For example, CS6 has 18 "HTML" types, yet CC has only 2. Also, CS6 has a "get more content" link on the dialog, whereas CC does not.
Is there any way to get CC to have all of those file types available, or do I need to create the file in CS6 and then switch to CC for the rest of my work?

If you want those starter files in Dreamweaver CC, it's very easy to copy them across. Go to the following location:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS6\configuration\BuiltIn\Layouts (Windows)
/Applications/Adobe Dreamweaver CS6/configuration/BuiltIn/Layouts (Mac)
Copy all the files except the first four, which begin with HTML5_
Paste them into the following location:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC\configuration\BuiltIn\Layouts (Windows)
/Applications/Adobe Dreamweaver CC/configuration/BuiltIn/Layouts (Mac)
You will need Administrator permission to do this.
Once you have copied them, you will find them in your New Document dialog box. The names won't be fully spelled out, but they should be recognizable.

Just installed CS6 but can't associate file type JPG with Photoshop.

I've just now installed Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom 4. File types PSD and TIFF work fine, but I'm completely unable to associate JPG, JPEG or any other variant with the Photoshop program such that I can double-click on the photo file and open Photoshop and the photo. I can associate JPG with either Bridge or Lightroom, or several other programs, but when I browse to Photoshop and select Photoshop.exe nothing happens, not even an error message. Does anyone have a clue what's going on here?
Operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate Edition, 32-bit. There is 4GB of memory in the machine, which is a Dell Vostro 1720 laptop.
Thanks,
Bill Sexauer

I know there is a problem with the file associations and that I need to fix them. What I don't know is how to do it. I successfully fixed the associations for file types PSD and TIFF, but I'm completely unable to do the same for type JPG. I did use Open With and that's where it just refused to allow me to change to Photoshop. It would allow me to change from the default Windows Photo Viewer to Bridge or to Lightroom, but not to Photoshop.
The problem was probably caused by my having installed CS6 prior to uninstalling CS4. Should I just reinstall CS6 right over the top of the existing CS6?

ITunes 8 moved importing/file type from Advanced to General tab

In iTunes 8, converting from one file format to another is now handled under iTunes Preferences > General > Import Settings button, rather than under the Advanced tab as in previous versions. All the file types are still there.

Hi there,
The problem here are NOT the WARNINGs but the ERRORs. So basically focus on the ERRORs...
For the ERRORs the solution is in Metalink Note:289606.1 - Pre-Check Fails - Oracle Report Objects Show Red Crosses When Merging a Transport Set within the Dependency Manager.
As for the WARNING, you should also migrate the users and the groups via the OID scripts - ldapsearch & ldapadd.
I hope it helps...
Cheers,
Pedro.

Need to setup Premiere CS6 sequence for two file types with different field orders

I have a client who has shot video for me using two cameras, one camera was set to progressive, and the other to interlaced upper field first. I need to use both file types in the edit and have been struggling to set up the sequence to get the best look for the end product, a DVD. I have several videos to do for her that were all shot in the same way, so I need a solution!
I would appreciate help figuring out how to set up this work flow from beginning to end.
Should I convert one of the files from the beginning so they match field orders before going into a sequence? Or do I just need to do some adjusting of the files once they are in the sequence? Is it just as simple as changing the transcode settings to favor the upper field first? I'm definitely having issues once the video is transcoded in Encore and you can see a lot of jagged edges and lines especially during movement. My client isn't happy and I've tried several workarounds, but to no avail.
Here are the two file types I have:
File extension: .MOV
H.264, 1920x1080, Linear PCM, 16 bit little-endian signed integer, 48000 Hz, stereo
FPS 29.97
No Fields: Progressive Scan
File extension: .MTS (my Mac finder can't read these files, but they are read in Premiere)
Image Size: 1920 x 1080
Frame Rate: 29.97
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - compressed - 6 channels
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.0
Upper Field First
I am using Adobe Premiere CS 6.0.2
Encore 6.0.1
Media Encoder 6.0.2.81
I am running it on an iMac 27-inch, Mid 2011
with Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5
Processor 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6970M 1024 MB
I've just been setting the sequence to match the .MOV files since they look much better than the .MTS files. I've done the opposite as well, setting the sequence to match the .MTS files and it doesn't seem to help. I've also changed the field order of the files once they are in the sequence by changing the field options and have tried converting the .MTS files in the Media Encoder, but nothing I've done has worked.
Any help would be so appreciated! The client I have is a photographer, so she wasn't aware of this issue when she first shot these videos. So I have 10 videos with these issues I need to get back to her, hopefully issue free! I'm struggling as an editor because my last job I was using FCP and was working with videographers who knew what they were doing, so I've never faced such problems before. Plus I'm new to the Adobe software. Not a good combination. Please forgive me if I didn't give all the information you need. I will happily respond with whatever more information you may need to help me out!

I wonder if you could do your edit ignoring any visual issues of the interlaced footage but keeping the different sources separate ( checkerboard edit Vid 1/ Vid 2 )
Lock it down then export the interlaced part of the edit as a Digital Intermediate.
Maybe Export the other source as well to the same codec. DI
Bring them back together in a New Sequence. You wold have to deal with the black spacing.

I want to edit the application associated with pdf files, but the pdf file type is not available on the Applications tab under edit preferences. How do I add file types?

I am running Firefox 5.0 (Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0) under Kubuntu 11.04.

Thanks jscher2000, I tried your suggestion, but no joy (as expected). None of the extensions were .bin, and in fact, I can't find a single listing for handling the .bin extension in the entire (unfiltered) list.
That's why I'm so confused. Where is Firefox getting the name "VLC.bin (default)" from in the first place?
cor-el, I checked out the link that you posted.
I don't have an entry for "browser.download.pluginOverrideTypes" and the entry "plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types" was empty (default setting).
My bad, but I forgot to mention in my first post that I had also tried renaming the mimetypes.rdf file in my "Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxx.default\" to .old to no avail.
Firefox created a new, almost empty file, but it didn't change the behavior for .bin files. I removed the new file and put the old file back in place after determining that clearing the file did not help, since I am otherwise happy with my current file-type options.
However, since the option to "Always perform this action" is grayed-out, I am looking into the possibility that the website is sending a misconfigured MIME type or is assigning "Content-Disposition: attachment" to the download. What's odd, though, is that I've never had problems getting binary files from the site in the past, and the problem started when the VLC player was installed.
I'll post back after I check into the server header data.

Adding New File Type/Editor (CS6)

There are a number of posts around editing Extensions.txt and MMDocumentTypes.xml but those posts don't seem to be solving my issue.
I have 40+ Dreamweaver users and I'd like to be able to send them one or two configuration files that add new extensions ALONG WITH primary and secondary associations for editing.
For example, I need to add the extension for PowerPoint (.pptx) and associate PowerPoint as the editor. I want to do this for all Microsoft Office file extensions - associate the extension with the default editor.
As a test, I've changed both Extensions.txt and MMDocumentTypes.xml in my local user folder, but the only result I get is that the .pptx file extension in the list of extensions Dreamweaver can Save As...
That's not what I'm looking for.
When manually adding an extension and a primary (or secondary) editor in the DW preferences File Type / Editor panel, I get the result I want... double-clicking the file from the Files palette opens the file in the specified editor AND the file extension (.pptx) does NOT show up in list of extensions in the Save As... dialog.
I have about 10 different extensions/app associations I'd like to add. Is there someplace else I should be looking?
