Editing .AI files opening in CS5 instead of CS6

I have both CS5 and CS6 suite installed. When working in InDesign and needing to edit a .ai file they open up in Illustrator CS5 instead of Illustrator CS6. How can I change this default action?
Thanks,
Phil

Couple things. If you double click on an AI file, which version of AI opens it? If CS5 is opening it, it may or may not be the file associations.
I believe Windows uses the last version of an application associated to a file extension. If CS5 opens a file that is double-clicked on, exit. Start CS6 and manually open an AI file. Now exit AI CS6 and try double-clicking on an AI file. Does it open in CS6? If so, it is likely the whole Windows thing.
If CS6 initially opens a double-clicked file and ID is not using it for the linked AI files...then I have no idea. At least without playing a bit, which will be a while later.
Take care, Mike

How do I save my files as psd to open in cs5 instead of elements?

Hello! I have both Photoshop Elements 8 and Photoshop CS5. I just made a logo and I am trying to save a psd file, but it will only allow me to open it in elements. Anyway I can change this to where it opens in cs5? Please help!

Debra,
Not sure about on the Mac, but the program that a file type Opens in, on a Windows computer, is predicated on the setting for that File Type in Control Panel>Folder Options>File Type. There, one can set the program, and establish that as the default.
With both PS and PSE, it will be the program, that was installed last (by default), but can be changed, as is needed.
As you have found out, one can also choose Open In, to determine the program to be used.
As a "for instance," I have PS on my computers, but for JPEG files, have those set to Open in Ulead's PhotoImpact, rather than Photoshop. For my PSD's, however, I have the setting to Photoshop.
Good luck,
Hunt

NEF file opening in CS5 as a smart object

My CS5 recently started opening up all my Nikon raw files as smart objects. I don't want that. How do I make it stop? This never happened before nor am I aware of me changing any of the settings. Any help would be great. Thanks

I never changed anything in my preference that i'm aware of. I don't even
know what smart objects are. Nor did I want it in the first place.
To clearify. I usually open a folder containing NEF files and then drag and
drop the file over the CS5 program in my dock. Then it brings me to the
Camera Raw menu and I click open and then it opens the file as a smart
object. TIA

Editing AVCHD files in Premiere CS5 – juddery movement

Hi all,
Just got a Panasonic HDC-TM900 camcorder – it shoots 1080p @ 50fps (PAL). The format is “.mts”, with AVCHD compression.
Anyway, the issue I have is that when I import the files into Premiere CS5 to edit (Premiere says it supports the native files) – whenever the camera moving, the movement is very jerky, and also blurry during a pan. But when I play back the clip on the camcorder itself, or directly out of it via HDMI, it’s crystal clear with perfect movement.
Firstly – I am making a composition that matches the clip settings.
Secondly - my machine is very fast & can handle the files, so it’s not a processing issue.
And thirdly, they still judder when rendered (as H.264) – so it’s not just an “un-rendered media” issue.
Any Googling I’ve done seems to bring up similar issues with editing AVCHD files, but no solid solution yet. People are saying that I should transcode the files before importing into CS5 (but with no consensus on the format or software to use), and there is also a general consensus that AVCHD is a great playback format, but not the best for editing.
And what’s also odd is that the Panasonic website seems to offer the EXACT software that would seem to fix my issue, but when I click the link it’s not there!
See here: http://www.panasonic.com/business/provideo/avchd-home.asp
Scroll down to “Software” and it says “AVCHD to P2 DVCPRO HD Transcoder” – editing P2 files would be ideal, as I’ve done this before off a P2 camera - but when I click the link, it brings me to a page with all sorts of software & utilities, but I can’t even find the words “AVCHD” or “DVCPRO” it mentioned on that download page!
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
KP.

Hi John - it doesn't have a 1080i setting.
Here is a link to a file I shot on this camera - I imported it into CS5, made a new sequence to match eth footage (i.e. dragged it onto the "New Item" icon) and re-encoded the AVCHD file to a H.264 "Vimeo HD" preset in CS5.
It's blurry, juddery, horrible footage during any sort of movement!
http://www.maxtronmedia.com/grove/panasonic.mp4
Yet, on the camera's own LCD (and on a TV through the camera's HDMI output), this footage looks immaculate. And yes, I tried capturing footage through the HDMI cable into my Matrox Mini and it's interlaced all over the place & pretty-much un-usable.
Suggestions?
I just printed an Amazon returns label, so I'm probably going to send the camera back... now I just need to hope the box is still in my green bin! :/

CS2 file opens in CS5.5 with inaddressable spaces

I have a very lengthy InDesign file created using Creative Suite 2 which file opens in InDesign 5.5 filed with spaces that can't be addressed in any way; e.g., using "Keep Options" or backspace or any relaxations of Master Pages, which don't even show up using the Page menu choice to begin with. Anyone know how to correct this without having to copy and past to a fresh CS 5.5 ID file?

I installed my ancient CS2 Indesign and when I attempt to open a file created seven years ago therewith I'm prompted that a variety of snap-ons are missing. I've copied screen shots of the prompts below. Where can I find these snap-ons? I only installed CS2 Indesign. If I'd have installed everything, would that have picked up the missing snap-ons? I'm posting this issue in this forum as an independent question. If you don't know the answer maybe Bob Levine will. The second image below is a scroll view from which I've only copied the top of the scroll.

GlassFish View Log File opens in editor instead of console

How to reproduce:
Open the Servers view, and bring up the context menu for a GlassFish server
Select GlassFish > View Log File
Actual: Log file is opened in an editor. Every time the file is changed, a popup is shown to ask whether the contents should be reloaded (unusable)
Expected: Log file is opened in Console view and provides the usual reloading and scrolling behavior
Eclipse: 4.3.0 (Kepler) (Platform 4.3.0.I20130605-2000)
GlassFish Tools: 6.0.3.201306271729
The question is: Can this bug please be fixed?

I've noticed that search is sometimes quirky in the console, yes. But that always felt like a bug in platform. Other than searching, usability of the console is superior: Automatically scrolling, Clear Console, Scroll Lock, Show Console when output changes, being in a view instead of an editor.
The editor is so bad that some people here refuse to upgrade to the new plugin version, instead installing the Indigo version from old workspaces.
How about just offering both in the context menu? They could be named something like View Log in Console and View Log File in Editor.

CS4 images "edit original" now open as jpg instead of in Photoshop

CS4. InDesign 5.0.4. Just upgraded OS to Snow Leopard (10.6) Friday.
Now my images in InDesign no longer open into Photoshop but open as jpgs which means I now have do extra steps of going to Photoshop, finding the image and then opening it.
How do I get back to images opening directly in Photoshop when I click on them in InDesign and then go to edit original? Thank you

Bob, we are talking about thousands of images!!
Isn't there a step in InDesign to get back to normal like on Friday? There has to be something inside InDesign that must have changed....
And you are right.... CS3. My other computer has CS4 on it.
Thank you.

How do I open a CS5 site in CS6 (CC)?

I just upgraded to CC and DW6. I have a site in DW5, but for some reason I'm missing how to open it in CS6.

Do you have DWCS6 Cloud Version (DW 12) or DWCC (DW 13)?
If you haven't uninstalled CS5 yet, open that and go to Sites > Manage Sites > Export and create a .ste file for your sites.
Then from CS6 or CC go to Sites > Manage Sites > Import to import all of your site settings.
If you don't have your old DW, go to Sites > New Site and browse to your site folder on your HD to set up a new site based on the same local folder.

Can't edit ps6 file with ITC Zapf Dingbats in cs6 extend.?

Dear sir/madam,
I had worked out a psd file within ITC Zapf Dingbats font. But now I can't edit it in new purchased Ps Cs6 extend. Can you help me to copy the font from my older Xp laptop (Ps6) to the newest Win7 laptop (Ps Cs6)? Many thanks.
Best Regards,
Benson Yang

At least on both my windows 7 and windows xp machines it looks like that might be a font that an adobe program installed.
Maybe adobe reader or acrobat, but my guess is an older version of photoshop like yor photoshop 6 installed it.
I say that because the font is in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts\Reqrd\Base\PFM folder (windows xp), although the name is not obvious (it's a postscript font as Mylenium wrote), so it may well be
a commericial font because i know they sell it at the adobe store.
Oh it's called i believe ZD______.PFM

Where can I download adobe photoshop cs5 instead of cs6

I downloaded the trial of photoshop cs6, and it doesn't work, so i want cs5 again. anyone knows where I can get cs5?
Message was edited by: Taylor Ringo

If CS6 does not work why would you think CS5 would?
Adobe does not sell CS5 any longer. May be able to buy from various venders. Be careful of counterfeit copies.

How do I make After Effects files in Windows 7 open in AE CS5 instead of the default CS5.5?

I have AE 5.5 and 5 installed on a Windows 7 machine and I'd like .AEP files open in CS5 by default.
I've tried using windows explorer to specify using the CS5 program but it defaults back to CS5.5
I've tried using Bridge CS5 and CS5.5 Edit/Preferences/File Type Associations but After Effects isn't even listed for some reason.
The only way I can open files in CS5 is by opening CS5 and opening the files from there. Trouble is I have more CS5 files than CS5.5 and I collaborate with several other artists only running CS5 so converting them to CS5.5 isn't an option right now.
Any ideas?
Thanks for looking!
Cheers,
Chris

Nah, won't work. You would have to completeley erase the "After Effects Project" file type from your file associtaions and then literally rebuild it from scratch. Yes, that means heavy surgery by digging into the Registry and its HKEY_CASSES_ROOT branch as just removing it from the Explorer file associations still leaves the file type class in place. Long answer short: Just leave things as they are and keep your work organized. I never use double-clicking and I'm juggling versions from CS4 to CS6 every day, so it's possible.

Cannot open an idml file created in CS5.5 in either CS5 or CS5.5

I have exported a CS5.5 file to idml but I cannot get it to open in either CS5 or CS5.5. Below is a screenshot of the error I get in both versions.
I have tried getting rid of all 3rd party plugins and resetting preferences to ID defaults in both CS versions but I always get this error. This testtest doc is a new file opened in CS5.5 with a text frame and a few words in 'Basic Paragraph' style and that is it. I checked for updates for both versions and there were none.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,

IDCS5 v7.04.553
IDCS5.5 v7.5.2.318
OSX 10.6.8

Could you please email the file to me?
Received.
I have seen this problem before. I do not know what causes it (I suspect a corrupt InDesign installation), but I do know how to fix it.
IDML files are .ZIP files containing XML.
Inside the IDML file there is a file called "designmap.xml". In your case, it starts (ok, line 2) like this:
<?aid style="50" type="pi_for_SaveBackINX" readerVersion="6.0" featureSet="257" product="7.5(142)" ?>
But typically it would look like this:
<?aid style="50" type="document" readerVersion="6.0" featureSet="257" product="7.5(142)" ?>
The difference is sufficient to cause it to not be properly parsed.
So, to fix this problem, you can rename the .IDML file to .ZIP, unzip it, edit the designmap.xml changing pi_for_SaveBackINX to document, re-zip it, and rename it back to IDML. (Make sure not to change the directory structure when you do this.)
Edit: Oops, forgot to include the evidentiary screenshot:
