Photos opening w/ Quicktime? Not Preview?

I'm sure there is an easy answer to this but here we go: when I click on a photo on an internet application and choose "save as" directly to my desktop as a JPEG, the icon is blank (not a jpeg) and when I open it, it only opens in Quicktime, not preview. When I try to open it using other applications, preview is not even an option.
How do I save photos to my desktop so that I can open it w/ preview, not Quicktime.
Thanks!

do you get the opportunity when selecting that file and using command+i to change the application?

Downloadable .tiff files open in quicktime, not as an image file: using mac

I am using a Mac 10.6.3 and
Ffirefox ver: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115 Firefox/3.6
downloadable .tiff files open in firefox quicktime, not as image files, nor do they let me choose how to download or where to save or as what type of file.

Hello andrea,
You can tell Firefox to ask you where to store your download files by changing the Firefox "Preferences". You can get the instructions on how to do it in this article: [[Downloads window]].
I would advise you to download tiff files as tiff files only otherwise they may become unviewable.
Now, to open your tiff files as images, you can change the settings on your Mac computer as follows:
#Select the tiff image that you downloaded.
#Right click on it and select "Get info"
#A windows will pop up. In this window, select the "Open with" item. Under this item, select "Preview" or any other image viewer application that you want to use.
#Next, click on the "Change All.." button. Click "Continue" in the message that is shown.
That's all. Now, your tiff files will open as images in the application that you just selected
Hope this solves your problem !

Getting a quicktime stream to open in quicktime, not browser

Hi all,
I am trying to stream some quicktime videos (.mov, H.264) from my website. For the standard res. version, it is fine to have it play in the browser, but I would like to have the HD versions open up in quicktime player automatically, like the HD trailers do on apple's website. How would I go about doing this (I have little experience streaming videos).

The key is that you need a "poster movie" to embed into your web page. The poster movie can be anything that the QuickTime plug-in can display...a movie, a sound clip, or just a still image...even just a still image that looks like a PLAY button. The key is, it has to be a file that QuickTime can play, and you have to embed it into your web page.
In the embed code, you need to include an additional parameter, the HREF parameter, which includes the URL for your streaming movie. Then you also need to include in the HREF parameter the TARGET directive, with the target identified as <quicktimeplayer>.
So your embedded movie ought to look something like this:
<OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B"
WIDTH="w%" HEIGHT="h%"
CODEBASE="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab"
ID="movie1">
<PARAM name="SRC" VALUE="poster.mov">
<PARAM name="CONTROLLER" VALUE="false">
<PARAM name="HREF" VALUE="<rtsp://my.streaming.url> T<quicktimeplayer>"
<embed src="poster.mov"
width="w%"
height="h%"
controller="false"
name="movie1"
href="<rtsp://my.streaming.url> T<quicktimeplayer>"
pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime">
</embed>
</object>
Of course, substitute your height and width for h% and w%, and your poster movie name and stream protocol and url where appropriate. And you really should use a Javascript method to write this code into your page so that it will work in Internet Explorer.
The real key here is that no normal web link will fire off QuickTime Player. But if you embed a poster movie, then that movie will be displayed...and more important, a user's click will be interpreted by, not by the browser's rendering engine, but rather the QuickTime browser plug-in, which knows how to start QuickTime Player.

HT2963 Can't set JPGs to open in Photoshop not Preview- forum suggested this is Permissions issue

I've repeatedly used "Open with" > "Other" > "Adobe Photoshop CS4" > "Always Open With" and it works only with that particular JPG. In a Photoshop forum, someone suggested this is a Permissions issue. Is it? If so, how do I fix it? (I have no UNIX-type experience. This is Mavericks OS X 10.9.2.) Thanks to anyone who can help!

Control (right) - click on the file and select Get Info from the contextual menu:
In the Info window select Photoshop as the app to open it with and click on the Change All button.

How do i tell the finder to open all of my .m4v files to open with quicktim

How do i tell the finder to open all of my .m4v files to open with quicktime, not itunes. i tryed right clicking on it and choosing other and selecting quicktime then checking the box that says "always open with" but that only pertains to that one file not all of them.

Right click and choose "get info" then choose quicktime from the "open with" drop down menu.
Then below that you will see "Change all" click that and your done.

Quicktime does not preview and quit unexpectedly when opening a file. Occurred after updating to 10.8.4

Hey Apple Community! How are you guys? I got a problem please help me if you can:
Ever since I updated to 10.8.4 my Quicktime is acting up. It doesn't preview video or audio files, and quits when I try to open a file. Here are some screenshots.
It previews pictures fine, but audio and video files do not preview. I can't use Skype anymore either cause Quicktime is acting up. Look:
I cannot uninstall Quicktime because OSX says it's required and cannot be uninstalled. Look:
I have the latest updated software as well. I am sure a lot of us are having the same problem, what do you guy's think is the solution?
Thanks!
Peace and Love

Ever since I updated to 10.8.4 my Quicktime is acting up. It doesn't preview video or audio files, and quits when I try to open a file. Here are some screenshots.
QT and QL are related but different functional technologies. I would probably look for something common to both causing the problem. Normally, the first thing I would do is check to see if the problem is local to a single user account or is global. If global, I would initialize an external stratup drive with the same system and see if the problem is duplicated on that drive. (I.e., develop a troubleshooting process.)
It previews pictures fine, but audio and video files do not preview. I can't use Skype anymore either cause Quicktime is acting up.
Not a Skype user so I don't know anything about potential associated QT/QL problems.
I cannot uninstall Quicktime because OSX says it's required and cannot be uninstalled.
QT is actually a structure embedded in the operating system. As such, it cannot be removed/deleted. The QT X Player, on the other hand, is a GUI app used to access the embedded QT structure. Unfortunately, since users of previous versions of the QT X player have created self-inflicted problems by moving the app and/or accidentally deleting it, my guess here is that Apple decided to institute safeguards to prevent users from being able to "modify" or "delete" the QT X player app at all. If you really feel the app or the structure is in fact corrupted, then re-install the entire Mountain Lion operating system. (Again, I personally would try creating a secondary startup external drive to test this hypothesis before doing anything further to the primary startup volume.)

Once I've burned a DVD by exporting photos so a pc can read them, is there a way to view them in iPhoto full screen without having to open each one in preview?

Once I've burned a DVD by exporting photos so a pc can read them, is there a way to view them full screen on my Mac without having to open each one in preview?

You would have to import them to iPhoto, iPhoto cannot work with images that are not in its library.
You might try some of the other viewers out there.

Thanks!
Let me make a few educated guesses:
1.— You're on a Mac.
2.— Your image files are being opened in Apple's Preview.app
If I guessed correctly, all you need to do now is go to the Finder, do a Get Info on one of your files (Command 1), change the Open With application to Photoshop, then click on the Change all button. You'll need to do this for each file type (PSD, TIFF, JPEG, PNG, etc.

Why is it that when I try to open a project, it says "the project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type"?

It could be opened last night but today it just kept showing "the project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type". I really need to access my video.
Some help out there, please?

By double clicking on a photo opened in event I get the picture of an exclamation mark instead of the big photo. also the slideshow does not work anymore.

When I double click on a photo opened in events I get a black question mark in stead of the big photo.
subsequently the slide show does not show pictures. I hope anyone knows if I have may be changed a setting?

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair Library permissions

I can not open my photo, opened in lightroom, in photoshop CS4. Plug-in camera raw is missing

I can not open my photo, opened in lightroom, in photoshop CS4. a plug-in camera raw xx is missing. Advice to update does not work. There is no plug-in in the map photoshop plug-ins.

This is expected. CS4 will never be able to open files from a current version of LR and a modern camera.

Free VLC player for the Mac, check out the Icecast Radio Directory also

And if it's copy protected then

If anyone is running 10.8. or later, then they might have to right or control click on the installer or app to "Open" to bypass Gatekeeper controls at least once, then it learns it's a ok to be trusted program.

Digital signature not showing in PDF when opened and printed with Preview

Not being able to find anything after searching high and low, I thought I would try my luck here: when I certify a PDF file using a visible signature in Adobe Acrobat Professional that signature does not show when I open the file in Preview or print it from Preview. Preview's Inspector information also claims that I can make changes, which I instructed Adobe not to allow.
Thanks for any feedback on this!

Try re-uploading the PDF and then updating the course. Sometimes the conversion doesn't take and the tracking doesn't apply correctly to a PDF.
