How do I reset the open command in Bridge?

In Bridge, when I double click to open an image in Photoshop, it opens in something called Windows Mail. When I look at the "open" menu it gives Windows Mail as the default program to open images. How do I reset this to open in photoshop??

The first thing you can try is restting the default bridge file associations which should reset to the bridge defaults including
using photoshop for most of the common image formats.
If that doesn't work for a particular file format, then you'll have to set it yourself by either choosing photoshop from the list
or clicking the browse button and navigating to the photoshop.exe in your program files.

How can I reset the open firmware password?

I wanted to installed Mac OS X Lion from scratch on my newly purchased MBP 15,4"
I put the installESD.dmg on a USB pendrive, then I boot on it. I used Disk utility to erase en encrypte my drive, and at the same time I set the Open firmware password.
I launched the installation process, after a while the computer reboot but I got an error:
there was a problem installing mac os x try reinstalling
I google this error and found many people who solved this issue by erasing the PRAM using the shortcut: cmd + opt + P + R. I'm asked to enter the password which I did but it's still keeping asking for the password so I guess its wrong which is weird cause I typed it in few minutes ago, so I might have done twice a typing error or I don't know.
So my question is how can I reset this password to be able to install my OS? (I cannot access to any OS cause the installation process failed).
Thnak you for your help

Yes I did use the disk utility to restore the dmg on my USB drive. The USB drive is perfectly fine, I can boot on it without any problem, well before setting this open firmware password I could do it.
Now the situation is:
No system installed,
Lock with a password
I have the disk to install SL but I cannot boot on the DVD because it is asking me for this password.

How can I reset the "open with" dialog?

When I select a file and choose "open with," certain applications are tripled, such as TextEdit, Preview, Quicktime Player, and Safari, while others are doubled, such as ColorSync Utility and others. Some are only listed once. I'm wondering if there is a way to reset this menu so that each applicable application is only listed once.
Thank you,
Henry
Also - I am running OS X 10.4.11, in case that is relevant.

Can't Open File Explorer -- How can I reset the Quick Access Toolbar from outside of File Explorer?

First of all, this is not a virus. This is my a bug within windows explorer itself.
So, I added the properties button to the QAT, and it displayed it as an expandable menu, like this: ";" but with small arrows like this: ">". didn't want this, I wanted to click on it and immediately display the properties of the file
to me. So, I hovered over it, right-clicked on "Properties" in this menu and added it to the QAT. Of course, this crashes File Explorer. Now whenever I try and open it, it crashes, so I have to assume that the corrupted button has been saved.
So, my question is: How do I reset the QAT from OUTSIDE of file explorer? Regedit magic? Any ideas?
Thanks for stopping by,
Trolleyman.
Edit: Just so you know, I can navigate through my systems files using the 7-zip file manager. Phew.

Thanks from me too, Niki. This first happened with Windows 8.0 File Manager a week ago,, and despite much research I couldn't discover the cause so eventually I resorted to restoring the system drive from backup (luckily I make daily backups,
so didn't lose much work).
Without knowing the cause a few days later I again tried to alter the Quick Access Toolbar and the problem reappeared. Should I again resort to restoring the entire system drive, the thought horrified me. But
luckily while doing a bit more research prior to resorting to the same drastic recovery, I cane across this post of yours and it worked!
It doesn't seem to be happening with Office 2007's or Wordpad's Quick Access Toolbar, so presumably it's a File Explorer bug (a.k.a. Windows Explorer in Windows 7, of course). Have Microsoft recorded this as
a bug -- if not, why not -- and when are they coming up with a fix?

I'm using Premiere Elements 11, which automatically opens in a project window for HD. I want to reset the default for SD. How can I reset the default for opening a project?

scottypet
For Premiere Elements 11 and 12, you cannot change its default project preset from NTSC AVCHD Full HD1080i30 or its PAL counterpart PAL AVCHD Full HD1080i25 to something else.
For each project, you can set the project preset manually if you do not want the program to take over setting the project preset based
on the properties of the first drag to the Timeline.
To set the project preset manually, open the project to the Expert workspace, go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings.
In the Change Settings area, change the project preset. Before you exit that area, be sure to have a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project" in the new project dialog.
Then you import your source media, using the appropriate Add Media choice.
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11: Accuracy of Automatic Project Preset (New Project Dialog) Setting
If you want a version of Premiere Elements that uses the default project preset of NTSC DV Standard or its PAL counterpart PAL DV Standard, then you need to look to a version of Premiere Elements earlier than 11.
Please let me know if you have any further questions on this or need clarification.
Thank you.

How to pass command-line options to app using the "open" command?

I am using jedit, and since I'm doing a lot of stuff in a shell, I'd really like to launch it from the command line as though I'd opened from finder, so I wrote a script that contains this:
open -a /Applications/Jedit.app "$@" &
This works well for everything except NEW files, where I get this error:
2007-02-16 19:29:48.072 open[1032] No such file: /Users/millerti/projects/ateon/new_file
Is there a way I can override this?
So, it occurred to me that I might try running jedit directly this way:
/Applications/Jedit.app/Contents/MacOS/jedit -- "$@" &
The trouble is that this suffers all sorts of weird problems. For instance, if there's already a jedit running, it launches another one (despite the fact that -server is default). Moreover, the file it opens, existing or not, is not the one I specify. If I'm in ~/mydir and I open ./myfile, jedit opens instead /Applications/myfile.
Obviously, I'm doing something wrong. Can someone help me figure out what open is doing internally so that I can launch jedit compatible with how open does it so that I can both open existing files and create new ones the same way from the command line?
BTW, I can make more complex script.
Also, if this isn't the right forum for this, can someone tell me where would be a better place to get the question answered?
And I'm not expecting to get jedit support here. This isn't a jedit problem because it's behaving correctly.
Thanks.

Applications rarely take command line arguments. I don't know anything about Jedit, whether that is an exception, but you are not sending an argument to Jedit with the open command. The file name on your command line is an argument to the open command. The open command says "open this file with the specified application". The application doesn't see the argument. It sees the file exactly as if it were opened from the Finder. That's why naming a non-existent file doesn't work.
What if you open Jedit with no file, create a new document in the application. (Again, I am not familiar with Jedit.)

Open a command window and send some keystroke to the opened command window

Hi All,
I am trying to open command prompt and send some key stroke to that command prompt. Here I am using Robot to send keystroke. But the problem is, the keystrokes are not sent to the prompt. I guess I need to activate progamitically the command prompt to accept the keystrokes . Please find the code below ( as I did).
try
String command = "cmd.exe /c start";
Process child = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
Robot robot = new Robot();
Thread.sleep(5000);
String lol = "indranil";
for(int i=0;i<lol.length();i++)
robot.keyPress(lol.charAt(i));
int g = lol.length() - 1;
robot.keyRelease(lol.charAt(g));
catch (Exception e) {}
I guess I am doing some mistake here while sending the keystroke/openning the command prompt. Can anyone please help me how can I open a command window and send some keystroke to the opened command window. I am in fix.
Thanks,
Indranil

The first thing to do is read the API and examples for the Robot class.

The short spoonfed answer - keyPress() and keyReleaseI() do not take chars. Read up on KeyEvent

Where are the settings for the "open" command, located at /usr/bin/open?

I have Windows XP installed on a partition on my Macbook and I use Parallels to access some of the Windows applications.
When I am in Mac OS X, and I don't even have a virtual machine running, if I enter the following command in the terminal, I get some really strange behavior:
/usr/bin/open -a firefox http://localhost/~myname/somewebpage.html
The open command will launch firefox within Mac OS X and display the page, but, it WILL ALSO TRY TO LAUNCH FIREFOX VIA PARALLELS. So, it starts a Parallels session and tries to launch Firefox. I see the Firefox icon in my dock twice, once normally, and once with the Parallels version of the Firefox icon. But, I cannot view the Parallels instance of Firefox.
In order to debug this, I removed Firefox from Mac OS X (deleted Firefox.app from my applications folder) and I un-installed it from the windows partition using Add/Remove programs in windows.
Now, running the open command as stated above launches Safari in Mac OS X and it still launches parrallels.
Where is the list of application associations that the "open" command uses? I assume there is some incorrect associate that is causing this but, I have no idea how to find it.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

Thank you for your reply.
I actually checked out the man page for "open" but, I was unable to find LaunchServices in the finder. I was hoping there would be some sort of manifest, or application map, within LaunchServices that might be the source of my problem.
Regarding using the full path: Good suggestion. That will clear it up when I use the command line, or if I were writing my own app, etc...unfortunately, I became aware of this problem because Netbeans is using the command in the abbreviated form I posted above (to launch web applications I am debugging), and I can't edit it.
I removed Firefox from both Windows and Mac OS X on my machine, and tested the Netbeans functionality, it launched my application in Safari with no errors. I reinstalled Firefox on my Mac OS X partition and selected it in Netbeans preferences as the browser to use when debugging an app. When I tried to debug an application in Netbeans again, I got the same behavior...parallels launched. Ugh.
There was a folder, on the Windows side of things, called something like Parallels\Shared Applications. It had a shortcut to Firefox in it but, I removed that before doing my testing. I was hoping there would be something similar on the Mac OS X side but, I haven't been able to find anything.
Thank you both for your help. I think I might need to visit the Parallels forums for this one.

How do I reset the clock on a G4 that has a spinning wait cursor?

How do I reset the clock on a G4 that has a spinning wait cursor? Not sure of the OS, other than 10 something. This computer was initially set up to boot in either system 9 or 10, with 10 being the default. I just need it to run enough to get some old graphics files off if it. With the spinning cursor, I can't go into preferences to reset the clock. Suggestions?

If the machine can boot to either OS 9 or OS X, and each of those is installed on a separate volume (partition), then restart or boot the machine and immediately press the Option key, keep it held down. After a few moments (maybe up to a minute), Startup Manager will open - a bright blue screen with some icons on it. Click the icon representing the OS 9 install, then click the straight arrow on the right.
The machine should then boot into OS 9, and you may then be able to grab the files you need.
Note - if OS 9 and OS X are on the same volume, this won't work.
