I often have to open files .cue with Text Edit. Right Click, Open with, Others, Text Edit. Is it possible to put Text Edit in the menu avoiding to use "others"?

The easiest way is to keep Textedit in the Dock and drag the .cue file(s) to the Dock icon.
You can also create an Automator Service:
Open Automator
Select: Service
Select Service receives selected [files or folders] in [Finder]
and:
Then select one or more .cue file, right click (or Control-click) on the selection to display the contextual menu. Scroll to the bottom of the contextual menu and select Services -> (what you named the Service).

I can only open up one window with multiple tabs; right click "open in a new window" does not work. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled Firefox with same results.

Just bought a new i5 laptop and am transferring files, etc onto new box. Last night I had two separate Firefox windows up. I downloaded Nexus Ultimate late and rebooted this morning. I had to restart Firefox then, and it did not save my settings/tabs as I prompted it to do when it shut down to reboot.
I uninstalled Nexus and wasted many hours trying to resolve this, including two failed system restores (looks like Nexus is a dirty little bugger) Windows Explorer will open up multiple windows. Firefox will not. Help.

Have you tried: click Firefox button > New Tab > New Window '''''OR''''' CTRL+N '''''OR''''' File > New Window (if using the Menu Bar)
Once open, Firefox locks the Profile that is in use and you can not open another window with that Firefox version and Profile combination using the Windows Desktop icon or the Windows Programs list.

Watching dvds with vlc-no right-click 'open with vlc' option as on the pc?

i searched discussions for this question but wasn't sucessful ... so here's my question:
i use a toshiba pc laptop and an iMac G5 ... in order to watch dvds (with different region codes) on my PC, I use VLC with great success ... I wanted to do the same on my iMac, but came across the following problem:
when I want to watch a DVD on the laptop, i simply right-click the title and go for 'open with VLC' (which gives me the menu and so on) ... when I try to do this on the iMac, however, there is no
'open with VLC' option when I right-click the DVD ... I can open single chapters of the DVD by opening the single .vob files, but I'm not happy with doing that ...
any ideas how to make watching DVDs with VLC on my iMac as easy as it is on my laptop?
thanx for your help!
2.1 GHz iMac G5 1.5 GB DDR2 SDRAM Mac OS X (10.4.6)

If you want all video DVDs to open in VLC, go to System Preferences>CDs & DVDs>When you insert a video DVD:>Open other application> and now select VLC.
This will open VLC, but the DVD will not automatically play, you have to go to File>Open Disc once in VLC.
One question though, why not use Apple's DVD player Application?

Firefox immediately switching to new tab even when that feature is disabled on right-click open in new tab or on ctrl+click a link. Please help.

Firefox switches immediately to new tab or the immediate next tab if multiple tabs are open, even when the respective feature is disabled, whenever I open a link by -
1. Right-click > open in new tab
2. Ctrl + click a link
Earlier it did not happen like this. It is really very annoying. Re-installation and clean installation of the latest version did not helped.
And this is happening mainly when I am using Facebook. Earlier it never happened so with Facebook.

I don't have the divX plug-in and I still have this problem. Why should plug-ins that are not even triggered by the affected pages alter Firefox's behavior. Feels like bad architecture.

By accident I have some raw-files in iPhoto. I want to open them in PS camera raw. How do i do that?!

By accident I have some raw-files in iPhoto. I want to open them in PS camera raw. How do i do that?!

Export them back out: File -> Export, and set the Kind to Original
Or,
You can also process your Raw with a 3rd Party app like ACR or Photoshop. But iPhoto does not handle this gracefully and it's a bit of a kludge.
First off set your preferred app as an external editor in iPhoto:
Next: In the iPhoto Preferences -> Advanced, elect to use Raw with your External editor:
Now when you go to edit the Raw it will be sent to your external editor.
Now for the kludge:
You cannot save a Raw. The work you do must be output to a new file, in a new format (jepg, tiff, whatever). However, as the External Editor is making this new file iPhoto has no knowledge of its existence. Therefore you must save it to the desktop and then import it back to iPhoto as a new file.
This means that you will have your Original Raw and the processed version in iPhoto but they will not be recognised as version and original. iPhoto will see them as two separate shots.

If you mean you are opening jpeg files that have already been edited in camera raw, that is normal.
Otherwise, that's very strange. There are many users who would like to be able to open in camera raw by default or from the Organizer and complain not to be able to do so!
Which Elements versin? From the editor or the Organizer?

Windows Server 2008 R2: Different file associations when double-clicking vs. right-click - open

I have a basic .xml file on my Windows 2008 R2 desktop. I have set the file association for .xml files to Adobe FrameMaker 12. When I double-click the .xml file, it opens with FrameMaker. When I right-click -> open the .xml file, it opens with Notepad.
I need the .xml file to always open with FrameMaker, even when I use right-click -> open. How can I set this up for all users on a Windows 2008 R2 server?
Thank you!
-Nicole

Hi Nicole,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
When you double-click on a file in Windows explorer, the Windows shell looks up the extension of the file in the registry to see if the extension is registered. If the extension is not registered, Windows displays the Open With dialog box, allowing the
user to choose an application to associate with the file type. If the extension is registered, Windows calls the ShellExecute() function with a command of "open." It also passes the name of the file that was double-clicked as a command line parameter.
Associations go further than simply opening a file, though. If you right-click on a text file (.TXT) in Explorer you will see two items at the top of the context menu. The first is named Open. Choosing this menu item is the same as double-clicking the
file in Explorer. When you choose Open, NOTEPAD.EXE will be started with the selected file loaded (assuming a default Windows installation). The second menu item is called Print. Clicking this menu item will cause the file to be printed without displaying
Notepad at all.
There is some registry setting for the application association to take place, you can edit them under following path.
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Test App File
(Quoted from below article)
More information:
Using file associations
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Mac Spotlight Results: Right Click/Open With/Reveal in Finder?

Hi,
As many others, I am a heavy Spotlight user/searcher. I tried quite a bit around, but I seem not to be able to "right click" open with on the Spotlight search results (Spotlight used from the menubar). I can open search results, but that is most of the time not what I wish to do. More commonly, I would like to "Reveal in Finder" or "Open with" (i.e., opening a PDF in Photoshop or Acrobat, not Preview, depends on what needs to be done with it...).
How can I get "right click" on search results enabled? Is there any way to enabled that? If not, how is your workflow to a) find files + b) do something else with them then open with default app?
Thank you for your thoughts!
(p.s. I know that I have the right click option if searching from a Finder window rather than then searching from the menubar, and that I can get the menubar Spotlight open as a Finder Spotlight search result set... however, the results in the Finder menubar are different, and much better, then the what is presented in Finder... so it would be much better to have the right click there)

Thank you, that really helps!
I tried Command + double click and that is exactly what I needed... you can "open with" from Finder then in a second step (one step more then would be logically required, I do hope Apple simply enables right clicks in search results in the next release)

Right click, Open with shows PSE11 instead of PSE12

When I right click on a file and select OPEN WITH, only PSE11 is available even though I have PSE12 installed as well. I have tried browsing to PSE12 editor and selecting it however, it still is not available in the Open With options when right clicking on a file. How do I make this happen?

Yes, I am sure. The options when right clicking on an image file including raw is only PSE11. I manually added PSE12 and the editor opens however, the image never appears. I also manually went to the PSE12 folder and seleted the editor (PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe) and it opens in PSE11 editor instead.
I have tried to get assistance from Chat Support however, they have stated that I need to call for support. When I call for support they say there is only paid support for PSE. That's just really odd as I just purchased this in Novemenber and the issue is obviously with the installation.

Stacks ( No RIGHT-CLICK, Open with )?

While I do like STACKS for my DOWNLOADS, I have not been able to figure out how to ( Right-Click, Open with ) on files it displays. It there a key sequence I am missing or is the functionality just not there.
Opening the folder is a extra step just to ( Open with -> ) that is unnecessary.
-Bruce-

The functionality just not there. It can't be so hard to Open in Finder. If there are a lot of files you have to open with the same app but aren't saved as so (for example Word files to open with Pages) you can make all files with the same ending open with a specific app. Right click on the file, go to Get Info and under the Open With tab you can select an app to open with. Click Change All to change all.

Lost start menu icons and not listed in right click open with option +more.

Weird. I need help. Quicktime 7.3.0.70 only--Start menu lost it's icons in the quicktime folder. When right clicking video files, the "open with" option no longer displays quicktime as a program. And lastly, open an avi file or even mpg and the program stops responding without even getting to play the file. I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times but can't seem to fix these issues. Can anyone help? Thanks. This just seemed to happen out of the blue.

I also have lost the icons for Quicktime in my start menu under Windows XP. The icons actually work when you do click them but the icons are not loaded. Everything functions fine and it's the newest version of Quicktime installed. I also have the newest version of iTunes installed. I ended up manually adding my own icons on the start menu as I've uninstalled and reinstalled Quicktime several times to no avail and even attempted to flush the windows icon cache. No go. This just started happening recently.
It's not happening on my WinXP Pro laptop however, although I've yet to upgrade to the latest version of iTunes+Quicktime.
*Right-Click Open With Menu still functions properly and the icon image is appearing correctly in that menu.

Can windows 7 'open with' right click open more than 1 picture at a time?

A few times I have been given a usb drive or SD card & asked to enhance a few pictures for someone. I usually just select one picture & then right click open wirh & select PSE. The problem with doing this is that I can only send one picture at a time to PSE. Is it possible to get the open with command to have more than 1 picture open? I'm using windows 7 pro.

Hi,
You could try using the "Send To" option but you first have to create a shortcut.
Use the windows explorer to navigate to
C:\Users\"Your User Name"\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
In that folder create a new shortcut to the PSE editor.
Then you use it by selecting the images you want to process, right click and select Send To - the editor should appear in the list.
Hope that helps
Brian
