How to get rid of PhotoShop as default

I use a different program as a default when I load pictures from my camera. Since I've installed PhotoShop Starter - it automatically pops up to download camara photos. My other program still downloads programs as well. I can't seem to find any options to make PhotoShop stop acting as the default. I use Windows XP. I don't want to uninstall the program, as I use it. I just don't want it as the default reader.

I had the same problem when I upgraded to Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 and unfortunately lost the majority of the photos downloaded from my camera through them becoming 'Missing Files.' The photo's I 'lost' were never to be repeated events - my husbands last fishing trip with his Dad before his Dad passed away, a friends wedding and the birth of our Labrador pups. Luckily I realised there was a problem within 4 to 6 weeks of downloading the upgrade, otherwise I would've lost a lot more. The photos we've lost are heartbreaking enough!
I contacted Adobe by phone and even though they couldn't help me to locate my 'Missing File' photos, they were able to tell me how to turn their camera downloader off.
Follow these steps in order to stop Adobe from overiding your usual photo download programme:-
In the bottom right-hand corner of your screen (near the date) you will see a camera icon. Hover your mouse over it and it should say -Adobe Photo Downloader. Click on this icon and then click on Disable. Once you have done this the camera should come up with a red cross on it.
I hope this helps.

  • How to get rid of 802.1x 'Default Authentication'?

    Hi All,
    Everytime I close my MBP's lid, put it to sleep, or simply turn it on...  My wifi is no longer connected.
    this all started ever since I decided to 'Turn Off Wifi' the very first time since I got my MBP this year 2011, in June.
    Whenever I do any of the above (put MBP to sleep etc) then get back to working.. My Safari says I'm not connected to the internet.
    And I see my Wifi signal "blinking" and trying to connect. So I go to my Network preferences and see this:
    There's that '802.1X: Default Authenticating' that appears below my wireless network's name..
    After which i have to Disconnect from twice - 1 time, before it tries to "authenticate" again.. and then a 2nd time.. and then it stops completely,
    Then i have to proceed to click and choose my network again and re-enter my password just to get the Airport/Wifi working again..
    Someone please give me a solution to get my Wifi to automatically connect whenever I switch on my MBP - and to get rid of this annoying 802.1X which does nothing and just continues to try and "authenticate" with no result.
    It would be very very much appreciated! Thank You!
    PS. I did read somewhere online about 802.11g newer wirelss network cards and how they may have issues with an 802.1x network etc..
    Don't really understand it though. Please explain if you could. Cheers 

    Realized that OSX Lion as re-prioritized my Wi-Fi to the bottom of the list.
    What I had to do was place it in first priority again in Network settings.
    Quite a disappointment from OSX Lion since in OS Snow Leopard that was the default setting - and certainly a hassle for newbie Mac users like myself who may be clueless when faced with these "issues"
    Also attached above is the picture that for some strange reason disappeared in the original post..

  • How to get rid of AME folder defaults

    Can somebody please tell me how to change the default folder setting that Adobe Media Encoder use when rendering my after effects projects?
    Right now, whenever I add my after effects project to the AME Render Queue, I can see that AME is creating its own folder inside my project
    folder. It inherits the project folder name and adds _AME and that's where the video file gets rendered.
    I'd rather not clutter up my HD with these auto generated folders. How do I switch this default off and just get the rendered video files to
    land in the same folder as my project? I've looked for where to change these settings but it eludes me.
    Thanks in advance.

    Upon closer inspection Rick, it seems like I just wasn't paying attention. As soon as I ticked that box and specified a folder it got rid of the dreaded default AME folders?
    But, rather than specifying a folder, I much preferred it when AME used to default to rendering my video files in the same folder as my project. No folder specification required.
    I'm pretty sure that this was the original default state when I first installed AME, ever since I starting messing around with these settings I either have to go with the annoying
    AME generated folders or one that I have to specify.
    Did I remember wrong and I'm actually going daft?
    Cheers

    you didnt seem to have configured the datasource / connection pool / database control with proper db properties
    you should check your configuration to see if you have done it right and then you should check your application and the properties settings in the controls to ensure they are right.

  • How to get rid of the default playlists?

    Hello! I'm using an iPhone 4S on iOS 8.3 and I went into iTunes on my desktop computer and removed the default playlists (90's Music, Recently Added, Recently Played, Top 25 Most Played) and for some reason they won't go away on my phone. Before today they weren't on there and must have added themselves after I synced my new music. The playlists are not on iTunes anymore and there is no way to remove them via my iPhone. Does anyone know how to get rid of them???

    Type about:config in as URL
    Then search for "yahoo" in the long list that you see. I found 3 references. Right click each one and "reset". That stopped my problem of yahoo search showing up in each new tab. I too got dumped on by a so called safe installer and ended up with unwanted programs.

    1. GO TO THE TOOL BAR WHERE IT SAYS SAFARI AND CLICK TO BRING DOWN THE MENU OF OPTIONS, CLICK ON PREFERENCES

  • All of my photos are displayed as BW because somehow I've saved a quick develop preset and it saves as BW.  This is for all of my photos.  I can individually undo them but need help in how to get rid of the preset so it goes to Default. thanks

    Go to the develop module and highlight all of the images in the filmstrip at the bottom of the screen. Then activate Auto-sync and click on the Reset button. That should reset all of the images to your camera default settings.

  • How to get rid of the "time out" when using DAQ AI in the example program

    I try an example file called "AcqVoltageSamples_IntClkDigRef" (Visual C++ .NET). It works great. However, if the program has not recieved the data, it sent out a timeout message. How to get rid of the "time out"? I cannot find anywhere in the code. Is this a property I have to reset somewhere else?
    Thank you,
    Yajai.

    Hello Yajai,
    The example program will use the default value for timeout, 10 seconds. To change this, you will have to set the Stream.Timeout value. I inserted this function into the example and set it equal to -1, and the program will wait indefinitely for the trigger signal without timing out. Please see the attached image to how this was implemented.
    I hope this help. Let me know if you have any further questions.
    Regards,
    Sean C.

  • How to get rid of the main text box in the back of the page AND move things

    I usually work in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign, but am creating two newsletter templates in Pages for a colleague, since it will be easier for her. But, for the life of me, I can't figure out how to get rid of the main text box in the back of the page that is driving me crazy. I just want a nice blank page that I can do whatever I want with. AND, I can't figure out how to select things so that I can move them, like shapes and text boxes. Some things seem to move fine, then other things just sit there. I am at the end of my rope!!!

    Hi, Dylan. Welcome to Discussions.
    If you're referring to the area where you just start typing when you open a new blank document, you can't get rid of it. But you also don't have to use it. You can insert text boxes and size and position them as you desire. Just be sure they're defined as Fixed on Page. When one is full and you want to continue it to another page (or to the side), click in the blank blue box on the lower right side of the text box. That will create another box and your overflow text will flow into it. Then position it where needed.
    Also, you can create a text box the width of the page and then set it for 2 or more columns.
    When you want to send something to the back and you may want to access it again later, just use the send backward command. If you send it all the way to the back, it will be behind the main text layer (where it will be safe from acvcidental movement) but you will have to click outside the work area and then drag the pointer to the object to select it.
    Hope this helps to get you started.

  • Printing Docs - how to get rid of 3 inch wasted space on right side of page

    I tried to print out : Communicating With Objects
    http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/CocoaFunda mentals/CommunicatingWithObjects/CommunicateWithObjects.html
    After trying several different settings and printed only the first page until I got the print more or less the way I wanted it, however...
    I have a standard HP Color Laserjet 2600n, looked at all the printing preferences, and all four margins are set at (.25 inch), yet when the pages print out there are about 2.5 inches of wasted space on the left side. The space is there for the Table of Contents, but there is nothing printed there, the space is blank.
    So I clicked on the Table of Contents header, so the TOC became hidden and the window only contained the text and images, then when I tried to print, I found that now there were about 3 inches of white space on each page on the right hand side. This is somewhere around a 40% waste in paper, trees, etc.
    One would think that expensive as printing is, there would be a way to save paper by optimizing coverage on each page as much as possible.
    Another curious thing is that the size of the text on the screen is easy to read at Safari normal (default) settings, yet when the first page is printed the text is really small.
    In order to get the size of the print on the paper to be easily readable, I had to click on the large [a][A] at the top of the Safari window twice (+ 2 sizes). The text on the window was fairly large, but the print became easy to read. There was still an excessive amount of wasted space, which just goes against the grain...
    Does anybody have a clue how to get rid of all the wasted space on each page ? There has to a simple way, this is 2010 and we've been doing this for 25+ years now.
    I am sure it is something simple that I am overlooking ? I'd be grateful for any help.
    Thank You,

    What browser are you using? Try downloading a PDF if one is available, or try printing from XCode's Deveoper Documentation window.

  • How to get rid of module snd_hda_codec_atihdmi?

    I've got the audio card M-Audio Audiophile 24/96 and the graphics card ATI Radeon HD 3450. So I've got only one audio card, which was always sound card 0 and the default sound card and which shall remain sound card 0 and the default sound card. The graphics card doesn't have an HDMI interface.
    Nevertheless I don't have sound anymore (without reconfiguring every audio software), because the module snd-hda-codec-atihdmi.ko is permanently, automatically loaded at boot time and put as sound card 0 and therefore the default sound card.
    Putting !snd-hda-codec-atihdmi in the MODULES array of /etc/rc.conf doesn't help. And `rmmod snd-hda-codec-atihdmi` doesn't help either. Then it says, that this module is in use.
    Is there a way, how to get rid of this - at least for me - annoying and senseless module?

    bgc1954 wrote:One way to do this would be to compile your own kernel and only include support for your M-Audio sound card.  That way the kernel can't drag in support for the atihdmi thingy.  May be your only option if blacklisting and setting the order of your modules doesn't work.
    I know this way, but I still hope, that there's another way.

    Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br />
    You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

  • How to get rid of widescreen

    I use a miniDV camcorder in a 4:3 format. It has a widescreen feature, but all it does is to crop top and the bottom of the picture and replace them with letterbox. It is not a natural widescreen.
    Any clip I import into iMovie gets stretched out into wide screen. When I export into iWeb, movie is also stretched out. I have to do a custom export and give it proper size. That would not be the major problem
    The major problem is that if the movie is stretched out in iMovie and i import any pictures from iPhoto (pillarboxing makes no difference here!!!!!!) the picture is correct, while the movie is stretched out. Now, if I happen to export it into 4:3 format, the movie becomes natural 4:3 again, but the picture is now very narrow (squeezed). So, I have to go to Photoshop, stretch the picture into anticipated widescreen import into iMovie and pray that the movie and the picture will eventually be rendered in a correct ratio in the end. that's NOT acceptable.
    Is there any way as to how to get rid of widescreen adn work in 4:3 ratio? I would appreciate it. Spending 3k on a widescreen hd cam? sorry, but I'm not that **** bent on doing digi video........
    iMovie is a great app with tons of features, but combining a 4:3 video with pictures in 4:3 format doesn't mix together. Again: pillarboxing preference checkbox makes ZERO difference on the imported clip - it's still stretched out. Am I missing something?

    Also make sure to uncheck the "iMovie HD/Preferences.../Import/Automatic DV Pillarboxing & Letterboxing" if you still have problems.

    I have an iMac using OS X 10.4.11. Beginning several days ago, all incoming emails have, after the usual email header and before the message appears, one to two pages of technical data (e.g., Dkim-Signature, Domainkey-Signature, Content-Transfer-Encoding, etc.). This is similar and more complex that the info one receives when an undeliverable email bounces back. I don't know where this stuff comes from, or how it came, and I don't know how to get rid of it. Any ideas? I'm something of a newbie to computers (um, what's a Tag?).

    That just sounds like the mail headers. Most people don't know (or care) about them so they're usually hidden.
    Check Mail -> Preferences -> Viewing -> Show header detail
    I'm guessing it's set to 'All'. Switch it to 'Default' or None as you prefer.
