How do I set Elements to open jpeg files?

I have been using Photoshop Elements to open, manage and fix my photo files. Since I installed an Adobe Reader update, the photo files and attachments try to open with Adobe Reader X, which only opens pdf files and can't open the jpeg photos. The only way I can open them now is by going to Elements and using the Open command. How can I reset Elements to it automatically opens photo files? I am using Windows XP. Thanks

Ken,
I went through all the avenues I know but couldn't come up with a Default Programs list on the Control Panel. Would it be listed under some other heading?

How do I set Preview to open pdf files

when I try to open a pdf file in safari 6, I get an error telling me to accept the end user license for adobe acrobat. Why?

You should contact Adobe Support and/or post in the Adobe Forums since it's their product.
To get Preview to open PDF files:
Highlight the PDF file>File>Get Info>
In the Get Info window, scroll down to "Open with:"
Select Preview open the file.
Click the "Change All..." button if you want to "Use this application to open all documents like this.”

How Can I set QT to open ALL files in Full Screen Automatically?

Am I missing something obvious here, or is this a major option missing in preferences of QT? I know that you can set this option for EACH movie in the Presentation tab in the movie's Properties, but I have 1000's of clips on my computer. I just want EVERY movie to automatically open up in full screen mode. This seems like it should be an obvious universal option for QT rather than handled individually for each file (with the option to over ride it per file if you wish for some reason).
Plus setting the option per file is not even practical, because in order to save that option in a file that is not .mov file QT wants to convert it to .mov and save copy of the file...

I am still pretty sure, say 95%, (do not recall perfectly - to many things on my mind... hihi) that the settings in Quicktime in the Preferences DID work before.
QT Player "Preference" settings only control how the content is displayed in the "Full Screen" mode -- not how it is activated. Pop-up options include:
1) Half Size,
2) Actual Size,
3) Double Size,
4) Fit to Screen,
5) Fill Screen,
6) Panoramic, or
7) Current Size
The options are available individually for "widescreen", "standard", or "other" aspect movie formats. The only other method of I can think of using the QT Player to automatically open in the the "Full Screen" presentation mode would be using a QTL file linked to your original source file but it setting the "Full Screen" option is "boring" for you, then creating QTL files would be even more so.

ITunes tells me "Could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" I can locate it and all my other music, but can only open one song at a time. How do I set it to open all my music whenever I want it?

iTunes tells me my song selection: "Could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" I can locate it and all my other music, but can only open one song at a time. How do I set it to open all my music whenever I want?

I just spent several hours dealing with this when switching to a new PC. It was extremely frustrating as I knew my files were on my external HD but no matter how many times I copied my old iTunes folder over the files were still missing...because dummy me had forgotten to "unhide folders" on my new PC and my old files were actually stored in a hidden folder created long long ago.
This is how I did it on Windows 7 with iTunes 10
1. Look in iTunes Advanced Preferences to see where iTunes is saving files. (Edit, Preferences, Advanced)
Example: C:/Users/Woildbill/My Music/iTunes/Music
2. Ensure you are able to see hidden files - Control Panel, Folder Option, View, Show Hidden Files
3. Use Your Computer's Search Function to Locate the Missing File (Start, Search, type name of song - I started my search in "My Music" folder but be sure to expand to entire Computer if not found right away)
4. In Search Results, right-click found folder and select properties. This will tell you where the file is actually stored.
5. Use Windows Explorer (right-click start) to navigate to the location of the file. It is likley your other missing files are in the same location.
6. In Windows Explorer, copy the newly located files to the iTumes location from Step 1 and everything should work again.
Hope this helps!

How do I set the default folder for file - open file... ?

When I save a file, photo, etc., the default folder for OPENING a file becomes the last folder I SAVED to - even after closing and reopening Firefox. Is there a way to maintain the same default folder for opening files?
Thanks.

I ask a question here as a last resort -- after I've done what I think
is an appropriate search for answers.
But thanks for your help in any case.

How do I set Firefox to open new windows in a separate window (not in tabs)?

How do I set Firefox to open new windows in a separate window (not in tabs)?

Click the orange Firefox button, and click "Options". This will bring up a new window with a "Tabs" tab at the top. Click that. There will be several checked boxes, including one called "Open new windows in a new tab instead" up at the top of the list. Uncheck that box and you should be good to go.
ETA: This should also work if you click "Tools" and "Options" within your version.

Can not open JPEG files and can not create JPEG files from other software

Can not open JPEG files and can not create JPEG files from other software (For example from Solidworks).
When I try to right click on a JPEG, a notice window appears written: "Windows Explorer has stopped working - Windows is
checking for a solution to the problem" and then the notice box disapears, the desktop appears and I can continue working.
From the other side - If I try to save as JPEG a screen of Solidworks (like a view of a part) the Solidworks falls but the JPEG
is created (I can see its name in the directory I created it).
I can open the JPEGS with the Paint software if I want but not with the Windows Photo Viewer.
I have the feeling that the Windows Photo Viewer disapeared from my computer - just a feeling.
I will appreciate your assistance.

Hi,
Did Windows Photo Viewer option appear when you right click the JPEG file and select open with?
I would like suggest you use Clean Boot to troubleshoot if there is third-party software conflict:

Hi everyone! Im a new user of MAC (=)) May I ask, how come I can't open jpeg files from my external drive? But when I receive a JPEG file via email, i can open it.

Anything else you think that might help us to know would be appreciated.

How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader instead of google?

Firefox is unsucessfully using google to open pdf files. How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader?
Message was edited by: veeryTalonted

"Google" is a search engine (website) and NOT (repeat: NOT) a PDF viewer. It can't and won't open PDFs in any real or imaginable way.
Firefox added their own proprietary PDF viewer with version 20 - they're on 21 now. I'll be the first to admit "it sucks". You CAN'T fill in PDF forms with it, and you can't email them from the page like with Opera, Safari or Chrome (which use the reader plug-in still).
Unfortunately, the ONLY option you have now that they've added it and killed the ability for the Reader plug-in to work with Firefox, is Tools>Options>Applications - select Portable Document Format(PDF) and choose "Use Adobe Reader (Default)". What that will do is FORCE Firefox to download the PDF instead of opening it in their terrible PDF viewer in the browser window.
Or... use one of the other browsers I mentioned. They're all free.

Can't open Jpeg files in email

I just purchased a Samsung Continum. I love it but I am unable to open jpeg files in my emails. Am I missing something?

Just keep in mind, downloading has limitations. The maximum file size for picture / videos/attachments can vary from device to device. The file size limitation is based on the megapixels of the camera on the device. The maximum file size that can be sent from an email to a device is 3 MB. When any message over 350 KB is sent to the device, the file is reduced in size to be under 350 KB prior to delivery. If a device sends a 500 KB file to a device with a lower file size limit the file will be reduced to a file size acceptable by the receiving device.. A message that exceeds the other carrier's limits will be rejected and not reach the intended recipient.
Listed below are steps to download attachments
From a home screen, select Applications.
Select Gmail.
Select an email message.
View the email message. If the email message has an attachment (e.g. jpg, gif, bmp, etc.) select one of the following attachment options:
An installed application is required to download or preview some attachment types.
