CS6 opens with Auto Recovery files every launch.

I know where the recovery files are. Finding and deleting them isn't the issue.
My understanding of Auto Recover is that when a working file is saved and closed, the corresponding Auto Recover psb should be trashed automatically.
Every evening I save and close all my work, quit Photoshop and shut down the Mac. Every morning when I start Photoshop, at least one Auto Recovery file opens. It's the last file(s) I was working on the previous evening.
I've toggled Auto Recover on/off, trashed the folder and had CS6 recreate it. Nothing works. Every morning, I am presented with a psb of the previous evening's work.
My scratch disk is a dedicated 100gb SSD. I have triple verified that CS6 is not writing recovery files to a different location.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rob

Is there any problem at/after quitting Photoshop?
Boilerplate-text:
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by pressing command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift while starting Photoshop until the appropriate dialog appears after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)

Fireworks CS6 opens with many many files, and then stops. time after time. What to do now?

Suddenly my Fireworks CS 6 will not open, that is, it opens and then starts to open many many .png files I worked on before (really I think it opens more then 40 + very fast and then the program quites with an error.

Where are the auto recovery files stored for Visio 2010?

I have auto recovery set for every 5 minutes. I have been working on a file that has been saved several times a day. Today when just moving a shape Viso 2010 crashed after I had been working on the file for over 2 hours. Auto recovery popped
up every 5 minutes indicating it was saving the file. After the crash the ony file I could find was the file as it was when I first opened it this AM. None of the work done today was saved.
Did auto recovery completely fail? Where can I look for the auto recovery file?
I have not done a reboot because I am afraid that if the file exits it will be gone for sure if I reboot. Any suggestions are welcome.
There must be a temp file or something that I can look for but not sure what the extension would be or the location.
Hopefully someone here can help.
thanks,

How do I know? You state the the auto-save file extension is .vxd - that's the Visio document XML format.
You can change this in File -> Options -> Save
As for the crashes, are there any messages when a crash occurs?
Check that the video drivers you have are the latest, try a different screen resolution to see if that changes anything and turn off or change any screen accelerators.

My mistake - the file format is .vsd - standard visio format
Here is the info from the event viewer for the specific crash that caused me temporary pain.

PSE 11 Orgaziner to open with a specific file.

Like that PSE 11 Orgaziner opens with a specific file, like it did with PSE 9, 6 etc.
Anybody knows how to do this??

Are these jpegs? If so make Organizer the default program by right clicking on any jpeg file in one of your folders and choosing.
Open With >> Choose Default Program >> Browse
Navigate to:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 11 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"

CC14, all files open with asterisk in file name.

CC14, all files open with asterisk in file name, need to save or cancel to close file. Is there a way to change that?

No. It happens to any InDesign file. I created a new file in CC14, saved, closed, opened and it had the asterisk.
If it is a time synchronization, how do I correct that?

How do I disable auto-recovery files from opening every time I open Photoshop?

Hi! I have read several forums about how to disable the auto-recovery feature. However, I don't want to disable the auto-recovery because I like that it saves my work in case of crash. It's just annoying that everytime I open photoshop all those previous files auto open. Is there anyway to make it stop? I read that there is a file that you delete, but will that stop the auto-recovery feature? Thanks in advance for your help!
Oh! It's Photoshop CS 6 and the os is Mountain Lion. Thanks!

On Windows, if Photoshop crashes, the autorecovery files are not cleared. On next launch, Photoshop sees those autorecovery files and reopens them.
When Photoshop closes successfully, it deletes these autorecovery files, and thus on the next launch no recovery files should be opened.
So if your files are continually opening, then Photoshop is in essence crashing every time you close it (assuming you are trying to close Photoshop each time).
May need to look at doing things like recreating the preference files or running Photoshop in a new user.

Bridge CS6 "open with" choose programms

OS: Win 7 Professional 64bit
Bridge: CS6 5.0.2.4
Hello,
how can I choose the programms that are shown in Adobe Bridge CS6 at "File->Open With"? I've got at least 2 programms which shouldn't be there, e.g. Firefox or COM Surrogate 6.1. I don't know, how they came into the menu. When I right-click the files in Windows Explorer, the "Open With" menu is filled with image editing and viewing tools. Everything is ok there. No Firefox and no COM Surrogate. Besides I want to add some tools like Photoshop or Windows Image Viewer and some more. When I add Photoshop in "Preferences->File Allocation", it is in the menu. But when I add Windows Image Viewer, Photoshop isn't there anymore. Is there a way to configure this? Especially COM Surrogate is a operating system network tool and shouldn't absolutly be there. I tried to set the file allocation to standard, but COM Surrogate and Firefox stayed in the menu.
Greetings
Thomas

Also, be sure to use a card reader for file transfer as a camera transfer can introduce errors.
I work with a Hasselblad medium format camera. I do not have a CF card in use. And I can tell that this worked absolutely flawless for many years. I NEVER had corrupted files caused by transfer. Many photographers using pro medium format cameras work the same way (Phase One, Leaf, etc.). They do not use CF cards but firewire cable. the problem arised when I started using the CS6 Bridge software. And it turned out that I get more and more corrupted files which appeared to be fine before. So from one shooting i.e. 1 file of 100 was corrupted first. Since I started using Bridge and changed RAW settings and worked with the same files after some days I have 5 corrupted files of 100 now. And NO it is not my system. It works fine with other camera RAWs where I have absolutely no problems. It is only the Hasselblad files. Though I still can open the Hasselblad RAW files with the Hasselblad software. The problems are only with the Bridge (respectively the raw editor) in combination with the Hasselblad files.
To me it looks like CS is corrupting the files since they worked fine at first - even in CS and after some days playing around in CS the appear to be corrupted. Funny that I can open the same files without problems using a different software - isn't it? ;-)
thanks for the link I will try it.... :-)

Applications only open with Unix Executable File!

Safari and three other applications hang.
I've tried a bunch of tricks to get them working right with no real success.

*Can anyone explain to me why this works?
The applications also open fine in Safe Mode.
Any help would be great! Thanks!

Using Open With to move files to PhotoMatix

I've been trying to setup Bridge CC to open multiple raw files. I changed the file type association to PhotoMatix and I can open with single RAW images with PhotoMatix but when I highlight multiple files in Adobe Bridge and try to send them to PhotoMatix, I only get the PhotoShop CC option. For my RAW files, PhotoMatix is the default application for "Open With".

Open with command - EPS file confusion.

I recieved a folder of Illustrator vector eps files that seemed to want to open in Photoshop by default. I changed all in Finder to 'open with' Illustrator CS.
Now my Photoshop files try to open in Illustrator too. So I change all to open in Photoshop and am back to square one with vectors opening there by default too.
Is there a way to set Illustrator EPS to open in Illustrator and Photoshop EPS to open in Photoshop? I know I can just drag them onto the relevant icon but if I double click a Photoshop EPS I have to force out of Illustrator to stop it opening.
Who's bright idea it was to give two distinctly different file formats the same extension anyway?

I think the underlying cause of the problem is the change Apple has made in how Launch Services is identifying these files in Tiger.
An Illustrator EPS file has a creator code of 'ART5', a file type of 'EPSF', and a filename extension of ".eps". A Photoshop EPS file has a creator code of '8BIM', a file type of 'EPSF' (same as an Illy EPS), and a filename extension of ".eps" (again, same as an Illy EPS).
Prior to OS X 10.4, Launch Services would consider an Illustrator EPS file to be different from a Photoshop EPS file because of the different creator codes on the file. (While we know that they are "different" based on the type of data they contain (i.e. vector vs. raster), Launch Services doesn't really know anything about the content of the files; it only looks at the file properties to make its decisions). Since they were different, you could choose to have one open in Illustrator and the other open in Photoshop. So, just by default, Photoshop EPS files would open in Photoshop and Illustrator EPS files would open in Illustrator.
In OS X 10.4, Apple changed some things around. Prior to 10.4, a combination of a file's creator code, file type, and filename extension were mapped to a particular application that would open it. In 10.4, the file's creator code, file type, and filename extension aren't mapped directly to an application, but to an intermediary called a "Uniform Type Identifier" (UTI). It's the UTI then that is mapped to an application that will open it. The UTI for an EPS file is the string "com.adobe.encapsulated- postscript". Launch Services doesn't really distinguish between an Illustrator "com.adobe.encapsulated-postscript" file or a Photoshop "com.adobe.encapsulated-postscript" file. So, what happens is that both an Illustrator EPS file (creator code 'ART5', file type 'EPSF', filename extension ".eps") and a Photoshop EPS file (creator code '8BIM', file type 'EPSF', filename extension ".eps") are mapped to the same UTI type, "com.adobe.encapsulated- postscript", which itself can be globally mapped to only one application. In other words, globally either Illustrator or Photoshop, but not both.
While not ideal, files do support a per-file preference setting. So if you have a global setting to open eps files in Illustrator then by default double-clicking on will, well, open them in Illustrator. If you have a Photoshop EPS file and would like to open it in Photoshop, you could use the Get Info window to choose Photoshop instead -- just don't click the Change All button. That file, from then on, should always open in Photoshop when you double click on it. (That "user override" preference is saved in the resource fork of the file so it should stay with it).
The switch to UTIs has helped simplify things quite a bit, such as this example with the different types of PDF files. Prior to OS X 10.4, you'd have to repeat the custom "Open With" preference for each type of PDF, which was confusing for most users.
Technically, both Illustrator EPS files and Photoshop EPS files contain the same type of information: Encapsulated PostScript; the fact that Adobe provides two applications, one to edit image-based EPS files, and a second to edit vector-based EPS files is somewhat beside the point. While you could send feedback to Apple about this, I think it's probably up to Adobe to figure something out. They could quite easily define Illustrator EPS and Photoshop EPS files as subclasses of "com.adobe.encapsulated-postscript". For example, vector-based Illustrator EPS files might be "com.adobe.encapsulated-postscript.vector" that conform to "com.adobe.encapsulated-postscript", while raster-based Photoshop EPS files might be "com.adobe.encapsulated-postscript.raster" that conform to "com.adobe.encapsulated-postscript". Since there'd be two distinct types, they could each be mapped to their own application.
Hope this helps....

Webform that opens with auto number

I need a web form that opens with a 5 digit number auto assigned. Each new form will increase by one digit. When submitted it sends to mysql db. All connections between form and mysql have been made and are working. Just have not figured out how to open form with auto number. Any help would be appreciated.

The problem with your plan is that everytime a user, spambot or any other person or bot opens your form, a number gets generated. This might be an argument for generating the number outside the database, using even a simple text file to store the numbers as they accumulate.The alternative would be to use an auto_increment primary key in the database to generate the number. The problem with that approach is that your database will fill up with empty records that contain just the primary key.
I think that the best solution is to simply not do what you are trying to do. I think it's a bad plan.
If you were to use the database method, as soon as the page opens, run an insert query on the database to simply generate the number, then call the number from the database using either:
id = mysql_insert_id(); ----with the original, bad mysql connection
$dbh->lastInsertId() ----with a PDO connection
Then, after the form is filled out, use an update query with a where clause as so:
update mytable set name = '$name' (etc., etc.) WHERE id = '$id'
As already pointed out, using this method, your table will populate with many rows that contain just the key number because many users and spambots that open the form will not complete it, or your validation will reject them, but you could run a trigger on your database to purge these empty records automatically, or, if you don't know how to create a trgger, you can run a query that simply says:
DELETE from mytable WHERE somefield IS NULL AND timestamp > currenttime + 5 hours
(the above the the query logic, not the actual finished query. You wouldn't want to delete all empty records because you may delete some where the user is still filling out the form, that's why you would give it a few hours between creation time and delete time.)
So if you used the text file method, you would use the PHP fopen function to open the file, check for the last created number, add the next number to the list, and echo that number on your form. You would run this script at the top of your page.
But I would really think hard about whether you really need to generate the number before the filled out form is submitted. Maybe you do, but avoid it if you can.

File explorer (windows 8) doesn't show the properties of pdf files such a keywords or tittle. Neither when click on second button. I just see them when the file is opened with adobe reader (file prperties)

I attach some picture to show the problem.
Im sorry because the os is in spanish, so i translate for you the fileds names shown
etiquetas means tags or keywords or labels, as you can see in the first picture at the second row, some file (office pack) show the tags but the selected one doesn't (pdf).
propiedades means properties. The properties shown are different if I opened from file explorer to acrobat.
I think there is a compatibility problem with the xmp file (metadata) from pdf file ans windows 8.1 (64bits). I tried to solve it by installing a missing file called ifilter, but the problem continues

I believe this is all normal.

PLEASE make PS CS6 open RED R3D movie files through Camera Raw 7 as 16 bit/channel files

Hi All,
Why does CS6 Photoshop only open Red R3D movies files as 8 bits per channel ???
This is VERY disappointing , R3D movies should be opened through Camera Raw 7 as 16 bits per channel
Hey Adobe please, Please, PLEASE make this very desirable change
Many thanks
Steve

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the prompt reply. I understand what you are suggesting however in CS6 PS when I open a Red R3D file (on my windows machine)
photoshop opens the file as 8 bit/ch WITHOUT going through ACR, not offering the option of opening it as a 16 bit file in ACR.
I presume PS "thinks" the R3D file is just 8 bit and doesn't "know" to start up Camera Raw 7 to allow opening it as a 16 bit file
No easy fix I'm guessin' ?
Many thanks
All the best
Steve

Cannot "open with" a htm file with dreamweaver :((

As the title states, I am trying to open my htm files with
dreamweaver, which should work as it worked before on another
computer. However, already when I installed dreamweaver on this
computer I got a message saying that my computer is a little
retarded, as although it's windows xp it does not have the latest
update or whatever.
But anyhow, I don't see how this has something to do with my
problem (but maybe you do?) : If I right-click on the htm file and
then click "open with", dreamweaver is not listed as a program at
all. If I click browse and search for it manually, mark it &
click "ok" it still opens the file with internet explorer.... grr
Did anyone have this problem before? Is there a way to fix
it? Please, I'm very desperate here and your help is very very
welcome!
Thanks a lot!

is this file you want to open a local site folder?
open dreamweaver.
dw menu->site->manage sites
define a new site to the folder that contains this file.
then open the file from the dw Files Panel
