Problem with file association in Photoshop

I am using Adobe Photoshop CS4, and I also have Adobe After Effects on my computer (which I don't use). For some reason, when I click on a photograph in Adobe Bridge, the After Effects program opens, but the photo I want to open in Photoshop does not open. I have reset the file associations in Photoshop, but Bridge ignores the settings and will only open After Effects. How can I prevent this and return to having Photoshop open my photographs?
Thank you for your help.

Might try posting in the Bridge forum.
If you're runign a Macinotsh, you an trash the bridge.plist but that's not always a good idea so don't do that till you know there's no better answer.

Problem With File Crashing in Photoshop CS5

Hello I have a design file that I just created in Photoshop CS5 last night. I went in to do some editing today and it keeps craahing within a few seconds of being opened. I have never had this problem with a file before and I need it to turn in at work. ANy helpful ideas out there on what may be happening? It's happened at least twenty times now....

If you do a search, you will find several threads dealing with file corruption in CS5/ CS5.1. The long and short of it is, that the file is a goner, but feel free to try things like opening it in another program (Art Rage, Corel Painter, GIMP) or image viewer (XnView, ACDSee) to recover at least parts of it...

Problem with file association

I have read on this forum that people have problem with the file association when they haved installed StarOffice 8. I have the same problem.
I install StarOffice on a computer as network administrator - every thing looks fine. When i then log off and log on as a usual user the file association for MS Office files (.doc, .xls, .ppt) are gone. I will not have the users to change the file association by their own because they don't know how to do.
I know we have the same problem when we first install StarOffice 7. I got a register hack that changed the association. Now i have tried to change the path's in the registerhack and run it again - but it wont work for SO8. :(
Is there anyone out here who know a solution for this problem?
As i mention earlier I have seen many people in the forum with the same problem - but I haven't seen a solution for it.
// Stefan

I came across the same problem on windows XP SP2 machines.
I created a registry key that forces the file associations as follows:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.doc\shell]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.doc\shell\open]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.doc\shell\open\command ]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\Sun\\StarOffice 8\\program\\soffice.exe\" \"%1\""
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.xls\shell]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.xls\shell\open]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.xls\shell\open\command ]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\Sun\\StarOffice 8\\program\\soffice.exe\" \"%1\""
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.ppt\shell]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.ppt\shell\open]

Problems with files opened in Photoshop from Lightroom

Hi,
I started editing a large number of files recently and came upon strange problems when sending files to Photoshop from Lightroom:
1. Sometimes, all edits will be transferred to Photoshop except for the Lens Profile Correction. I tried clearing all changes and starting again, and it didn't work. However, if Lens Profile Correction is the ONLY change I make in Lightroom, it is correctly shown when the file is opened in Photoshop. [EDIT: I thought it was only the Lens Profile Correction, but with some files it appears other edits are disappearing too, such as cropping.]
2. Sometimes, and I can't seem to find any pattern for this, files I sent to Photoshop will open as only "slices" of images. In fact, there is only one sliver of the image that gets opened. Sometimes it is a vertical line, sometimes a horizontal line, usually about 1/20 as thick as it is long. For that problem, I haven't found a solution yet.
I am using the latest versions of Lightroom, Photoshop and Camera Raw, with RAW files created with a Nikon D7000 camera, on an iMac from 2011. I have no software or hardware problems apart from this.
Here's hoping someone can help.
Thanks!

Problem with file vault

One of the desktops on my macbook 2007 steel case will not open.
The message i get on screen at login is that there is a problem with file vault.
my dissertation is on that desktop.
all other desktops/user accounts are unaffected and i have admin permissions on them
i recently upgraded to osx 10.9.4
how can i get back in?

If you restored the account to which the FileVault protected Home folder belonged, then you need to log into that account and enable FileVault.
If you just need access to the data in the FV protected Home folder, then locate the sparsebundle disc image file that contains the encrypted folder. Double-click on it as if to mount it. You will then need to enter the FV password associated with the account to gain access (this is NOT the admin nor login password.)

Problem with file descriptors not released by JMF

Hi,
I have a problem with file descriptors not released by JMF. My application opens a video file, creates a DataSource and a DataProcessor and the video frames generated are transmitted using the RTP protocol. Once video transmission ends up, if we stop and close the DataProcessor associated to the DataSource, the file descriptor identifying the video file is not released (checkable through /proc/pid/fd). If we repeat this processing once and again, the process reaches the maximum number of file descriptors allowed by the operating system.
The same problem has been reproduced with JMF-2.1.1e-Linux in several environments:
- Red Hat 7.3, Fedora Core 4
- jdk1.5.0_04, j2re1.4.2, j2sdk1.4.2, Blackdown Java

Its a bug on H263, if you test it without h263 track or with other video codec, the release will be ok.
You can try to use a not-Sun h263 codec like the one from fobs or jffmpeg projects.

Problem in file association and main-class in JWS

Hello , all
I have a problem in JWS with file association and main-class. I have a java application that has two entry classes, one is appmain.class that is required to launch from web, and the other is player.class that is required to launch when user double-click the .abc extension file.
In JWS 5.0+, there is a association element in JNLP syntax that can be used to make the file association with .abc extension. But how can I declare the main-class in JNLP file?
If I declare the application-desc element as <application-desc main-class="player">, the player.class will be launched from web. But if I declare it as <application-desc main-class="appmain">, the .abc extension wil be associated to the appmain.class.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thank you for your kindly help.

One way is to define a third main that refers
to the other two, as appropriate. E.G. if the
web based main does not include -open as
its arguments, it is easy.class WebStartSpringboard {
/** Call web based main unless args include -open. */
public static void main(String[] args) {
    if (args[0].equals("-open") ) {
      OpenFileBasedClass.main(args);
    } else {
      WebBasedClass.main(args);
}Other measures might be taken for a situation
where the web based version does include a
-open argument.

I got some problems with my 3D in Photoshop can someone help me ?

I got some problems with my 3D in Photoshop.I press the 3D button and its showing me nuthing.If someone can help me ...Please... Thanks.

Yes, you have to have a document open or you can open a 3D file (OBJ, 3DS, DAE, LMZ, or U3D)
If you open a document and then open the 3D Panel there are a variety of create 3D options.

Problems with files saving in a quicktime format

Problems with File Transfers Over Firewire 800

Problems with File Transfers Over Firewire 800.
Over the past month, I have had problems when transfering files from my harddrive, over Firewire 800 to a portable drive. I usually transfer very large files (20gb or more) to the portable drives for moving files around. When I drag a file over to copy onto a drive, the transfer starts normally. If I drag more files to copy over, the computer screen goes darker and a large icon comes up that looks like a power button icon. It tells me to restart, so I have to do a hard shut down on my G5. Weird. I also get the dark screen of death sometimes when I am transfering those large files and open another application to do some work while it's copying. It's killing me. I am having to sit here and wait for the transfer to finish before I can do anything.
Any thoughts...

Error while opening pdf in reader in windows 8:Can't open this file. There's a problem with file format

I have a problem with a pdf file which does not open with reader in windows 8 but it opens properly with adobe pdf reader. All other pdf can be opened in reader.But when i open a pdf(see this link for pdf for which i got error http://incometaxsoft.com/temp/Form.pdf)
it gives error as "Can't open this file. There's a problem with file format".
The same file opens properly in adobe pdf reader.You can check the pdf file which i have mentioned in the link above.But the reader which comes with windows 8 can open some other pdf in the same PC.What may be the error causing this??

This has turned out to be an enormous issue for me as I sell PDF files as ebooks. I have done a fair amount of investigating this for my system.
My files have to be compatible not just across readers but across operating systems.
To date, I have over 200 PDFs that have functioned flawlessly across Mac, PC (Windows 7 and below), Android, iPhone/iPad, Linux.
I personally test my PDFs using a variety of readers and PDF editors including
PDF XChange (my favorite)
Foxit (runner up for me and I recommend for most people)
Adobe (the bloated monster)
Nitro 9 (great for moving graphical elements around)
ABBYY
And the Nuance PDF Create toolsets
Those are off the top of my head. There are a bunch on Android that I test with too.
I am running the Windows 10 Pro Tech Preview and I have this same problem so I know it isn't fixed yet in any kind of pre-release way (-sigh-)
Here is what I've learned for my situation
The PDFs I created using NUANCE'S PDF CREATE PROFESSIONAL VERSION 8
all fail using the built-in Windows 8/10 PDF reader.
When I look at the PDF properties for these Nuance created files, the underlying engine used to write them is called "ImageToPDF". Using ABBYY it indicates their own engine as does everyone else that I've tried. It is easy for you to check to see
what created your PDF by doing a "Control D" (look at the document properties). Perhaps there's a common engine causing issues.
If I use the exact same source files to create a PDF using any of my other tools I have no issues. I checked the PDF versions made by the tools and they are all set to 1.5.
A customer mentioned being able to convert them in a way they worked by saving them without having to do any kind of extraction, but I have not been able to duplicate that. Perhaps he did a "print" which seems like it could work.
In summary, the workaround everyone is talking about, using an alternate reader, of course works. But not everyone wants to change.
The culprit I have found is my Nuance PDF Creation tools that are using the ImageToPDF engine.
I hope it gets FIXED as I really don't want to have to regenerate all of my PDF files.

Unable to download from AppStore, updates,etc.Messages 'the installer is damaged' to 'there might be a problem with file ownership and permissions.' I am the owner and only user of a new MBP. What could be going on?

Is anyone having the same type of problems I'm having with Lion. I have a new MacBook Pro, received 7 weeks ago, preinstalled with Leopard 10.6.7. I didn't migrate anything from my old iMac, wanted a clean install from the Apple Store. While there, I asked for the upgrade to Lion 10.7, however their system was down.
I installed it myself, wirelessly about a week later, and Apple emailed me a receipt. Now, I've had to call support directly last week when I lost Mail, Address Book, was unable to open Preview or iTunes, among other problems. Seemed fixed after a session that baffled even the store tech. Now I am unable to download or install the recent Mac updates for Lion, from the App Store, could not install Adobe Reader, etc. Messages range from 'A network error has occured - Check your Internet connection and try again' to 'The Installer is damaged and cannot open the package. There may be a problem with file ownership or permissions.' All fail and I'll probably have to call Apple again. I am frustrated beyond words. Logs 'Install's runner tool is not properly configured as a setuid tool', domain errors, 'attempt to write a readonly database, and on and on. I have barely done a thing on this computer except search online for help with these problems. Safari gives me a 'You are not connected to the internet' too often. Diagnostics disagrees. I do see wi-fi problems in the forum. Disk and permissions were fine at the beginning of the earlier problems, checked first by support tech. I'm not sure if support tech even knew. I was just happy they were fixed. Anyone have these download and/or install problems after a 'clean bill of health' so to speak, only a week ago?

Let's try the following user tip with that one:

Problem with File Based replication in Weblogic Express 10

Hi,
          We have Web application (exploded war) file deployed on Weblogic Express 10, to a Cluster of three Managed Servers (all three on different physical machines).
          We are using File based session persistance in weblogic.xml
          We have a shared location for all the three servers where we will be sharing the Session data.
          When we start the application, its works fine and is very fast, but after sometime the application slows down.
          Troubleshooting the Issue we found that its a problem with file based replication. By using File based replication every user session is stored in form of directory inside shared directory. So after sometime thousands of directories are created inside the shared directory where the session information is stored. So when we access the application, its waiting for lot of time with Message Session Monitor .... (this is because its browsing through the shared session storage directory for lot of time for session information as it has lot of directories) and finally after a long time like 10 mins we get the Application Home Page.
          When we clean up all the saved sessions inside shared directory, the application works fine, But we will see the same sometime later may be after 3 or 4 hours when the shared session directory has lot of session information stored in it.
          Is there a way to clean up the saved session information on file system as soon as that user session is closed by using file based replication.
          We cannot used Inmemory replication as our Appl doesnt support it.
          Please advice as it is a major show stopper in our Production Mirror env.
          Weblogic Consultant

It is possible to reduce number of live session by configuring very low timeout-secs weblogic.xml. Default is 60 minutes.
          More details are here..
