PSE 9.0.3 on Mac - files now opening in tabs?

Tabbed windows don't work for me in PSE, I often need to look at more than one document. With v9.0.3, files open in tabs by default. I looked and looked for a preference setting to change that to no avail. Is there a setting for that?

Yes I agree it's a pain. But as I indicated there is a work around in the window menu or just by dragging out the tabs.
It's not ideal and I may uninstall and reinstall unless Adobe come up with a fix.
The update claimed it was mainly for Wacom tablets; so I feel completely missled by Adobe.

In 10.4, an internet audio file now opens with Quicktime?

Many thanks in advance for your attention.
When I was using 10.3 (and before), when clicking on an audio file on the internet, RealPlayer 9 automatically opened.
One could see the % of the file being downloaded and then (quickly), one would automatically hear the audio clip.
Most often, I am talking about audio clips available on NPR (National Public Radio).
Since I have installed 10.4 (now at 10.4.3), when I click on the same audio file, now Quicktime opens instead. And then nothing happens. Quicktime opens, a Quicktime Player is seen, but I hear nothing and nothing tells me whether the audio file is being downloaded, is ready to be listened to, or anything.
With Quicktime 7, is RealPlayer now supposedly superfluous?
- Ross

Many thanks QuickTimeKirk,
But think I need more step-by-step directions.
1. I have RealPlayer (9) already.
2. MIME settings in QuickTime Preference Pane. Set it to use RealPlayer for the Format .SMIL How?
3. In the QuickTime Preference Pane, there is a box for .SMIL, one box only, under "Miscellaneous." It IS unchecked already. But NPR still opens with QuickTime.
4. By "Change your Mac to use Real Player to open .SMIL files - ." I assume you mean, I will be on NPR, download a QT file and then try to change it to a RealPlayer file under "Get Info?"

Multiple files now open in addition to what I want.

Hey all,
I installed Lion when it came out (running MBP 2.2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo) and now I have a strange (and annoying) issue.
When I click on a file to open (whether its a picture through preview, file in powerpoint or sheet in excel) several files open in addition to the one selected. Files that I never wanted open now do so automatically which as you might imagine slows everything down. I have gone through and tried to find what magical setting is making this happen but I can't figure it out.
Is anyone else having this issue?
Any thoughts on correcting the

Just close them before quitting.
The expectation in Lion is that applications remember their state, so when they're reopened, they restore to their previous state, with whatever windows/documents/etc. that were open before it quit.
So if you open 10 documents in, say, Preview, then quit and relaunch, those same 10 documents will reopen.
This contrasts to previous OS versions where relaunching would start off fresh and you'd need to reopen those 10 documents if you wanted them.
So, your solution should be as simple as closing the unneeded/wanted documents before quitting the app.
If that doesn't work something else is amiss, but that's the likliest solution.

.wmv files now open with premier

Hi:
I have CS2. Just in the last week, any .wmv file that I download now wants to open with Premier! Of course, I have to start a new project and when I do, there isn;'t any file to open. I have looked in the download manager and it is downloaded, ready to play, but premier can't import it. Media Player can't find it either. I have unchecked the file types with MP and then re linked them, no luck. I think MS did an update, but I haven't changed any file associations with premier or QT or any other player. Anyone else having this problem or heard of it? I have looked online and can't find anything relating to this. it is very frustrating not to be able to look at amy .wmv files. TIA

You need to change the file association for.wmv.

Cannot open htlm file firefox opens new tab and keeps asking to open or save file ran malware bytes no problems found

When trying to open an html file firefox keeps opening the open file dialog in a new tab. I have run malware byte with no success.
The file never opens.
Finally refreshed Firefox problem resolved...

I am happy to hear that you solved it I will lock the thread.

When opening FIrefox (Mac OS) it opens one tab and then immediately shuts down.

When I attempt to start/open FIrefox, now, it begins - checks add-ons, opens one tab - but then immediately shuts down.

Safari freezes the whole Mac when I open new tab

When ever I click open a new tab or use Command + T
The Mac freezes and does not respond. All the apps are stuck for about 1 minute.
Why is this happening , how can I fix it?
Thank you

Hmm…try this:
1. Go to Home/Library/Cookies and delete the Cookies.plist file.
2. Go to Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
3. Go to Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Web Page Previews and delete the contents of that folder.
4. If you don't want to use the Top Sites or Cover Flow features, open Terminal and paste in this command:
defaults write com.apple.Safari DebugSnapshotsUpdatePolicy -int 2
then press Enter or Return and quit Terminal
5. Go to Home/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
6. Go to Home/Library/Caches/Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
7. Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete these files (if you have them):
Downloads.plist
History.plist
Form Values
LastSession.plist
WebpageIcons.db
Then Repair Permissions, restart Safari and see if the problem continues.

Firefox now opens new tabs in new Firefox sessions. This is new behaviour and is a nuisance. How do I stop it?

This may be a Windows problem or it may be a Firefox issue.
I think it started when I installed updated Firefox to version 35.
Firefox 35 is running in Windows 8.1 on a desktop.
When I click a link in my Firefox browser, I've set FF to open new windows in a new tab instead.
It doesn't.
It opens a new window altogether that sits at the far end of my Windows task bar. If I have several tabs running, the taskbar displays the main program icon, which is pinned to the taskbar, and way over to the right it displays an icon that shows another session of Firefox. If there are three new sessions running, that icon on the right shows layers.
To close Firefox, I have to select each session and close it individually.
In the past, the Windows taskbar icon showed just one Firefox icon, although it would show layers if there was more than one tab open. Now it's showing the two as described above.
This is a nuisance. Is it caused by Firefox 35, and if so, how do I stop it?

Thanks, Fred. The settings checked under "Tabs" are Open new windows in a new tab instead, and When I open...switch to it immediately.
Maybe I'm describing the problem incorrectly. Firefox is 'pinned' to my taskbar. When clicked, a second FF icon appears to the right and it is not pinned. It appears to be an entirely new session. New tabs open in it.
My home page is a web page with links with the target=_blank attribute. When I click one a new session starts with two tabs in it, my home page and the page for the url I linked to. The attached image shows four FF sessions running, three of them with two tabs, resulting from clicking 3 links on my home page. Instead of one "unlit" icon and one "lit" icon with seven tabs shared between four sessions, there should be one icon, lit, with one session with four tabs.
I think this started happening when FF upgraded to version 35, but it may have been when Windows 8.1 upgraded itself, if that happened recently. I've only noticed this behaviour for a few days; until then FF stayed in one session with multiple tabs, and only the pinned program icon showing in the task bar.
This ONLY occurs with Firefox. My other browsers, IE 11, Opera 26 and Safari, just use the one pinned icon.

FF 20.0 now opens with tabs that I closed in previous sessions even when I close without checking the open tabs box. How to fix?

OS 10.7.5; FF 20.0

Firefox will automatically resume your previous session if it detects that it crashed. I'm not sure how to troubleshoot that on Mac, but you could check out the "Firefox hangs when you quit it" part of this article: [[Firefox hangs or is not responding - How to fix]].
You might also want to review your home page setting as some tabs might appear there that weren't intended to open every time you start Firefox:
Firefox > Preferences > General

3.6.4 now opens new tabs to the far right, rather than next to the current tab. why the change, and can I change it back?

When I right-click a link to open the context menu, and then select the menu item "open in new tab", the new tab is to the far right of my opened tabs in this window. In 3.6.3, the new tab would be next to my current tab. This seems like an arbitrary change. Is there a setting whereby I can get the old behavior?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I updated to 3.6.4

Set the pref browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent to false on the about:config page.
To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

When downloading a file Firefox opens Innumerable tabs and is very difficult to stop.

Are you aware of this problem, if so what is its cause and how do I fix it?

You may need to change the action for a content type as shown here - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+keeps+opening+many+tabs+or+windows

Help - PSE Install Gone Wrong. Error Messages & Gibberish in Mac Files

Hello,
I hope someone can help me!!! I am super freaked out . I installed the PSE 8 for on my Mac last night. I had tested the trial on my computer without any problems a few months ago. So anyway, the program immediately started giving me error messages about not being able to copy and paste images. Then I noticed one of my Keynote documents text became jumbled. And more importantly, a Pages file that I am getting ready to send to a printer is now 95% gibberish! I have not closed it out and tried to save a new file but the new file is still gibberish.
When I installed the PSE 8, I check marked all the boxes (options) and I am wondering if that is the problem. How do I fix my files so the gibberish goes back to normal? I know I will have to reinstall the PSE which is no big deal.
My main concern is having my Page & Keynote files fixed!
I am grateful for any feedback and suggestions!!!!
Thank you,
Nikki

Thank you! I will be sure to repair permissions after installs. I didn't know that.
So while I was on hold for about 45mins. with customer support, I discovered that my files that had gibberish became normal once I changed the font. 90% of the files were using the Adobe Garamond Pro font. So when I changed the font to Arial, you could read it again. So it seems like the Garamond font got corrupted. I need to use this file for the 12 page newsletter that I have already typeset.
Now that PSE is removed, the Garamond font is back to normal!!
I am going to wait until I get the newsletter off to the printer before I reinstall PSE. Any suggestions on how to not let PSE corrupt it or why do you think that happened? I did tell it to install everything on the CD (all the extras which may had extra fonts?)
Thank you again,
Nikki

I've had MS Office:mac 2011 on my imac for around 18 months now. Outlook has just disappeared and when I find the file and open it it tells me that there is a problem and I may need to re-install it. I've just done this using the installation disc which, then said the installation had been successful.
Outlook is still not working. Can anyone please advise me on what to do next.

Remove MS Office 2011 completely (here are instructions) and reinstall it.
It's not a simple or fast process but it is important to follow all of the steps in order to get all the files that Office scatters around. This will not affect your data files, only MS Office and its preferences.

I dragged my ext. HD iTunes backed up folder into my new mac. Now there are duplicates of every song!! The problem is both versions seem to actually BE there when I check the info. Now I have no idea if iTunes is playing the files in the trash or not

Hi. I'm in a situation here and would really welcome some guidance. I dragged my ext. HD iTunes backed up folder into my new mac. Now there are duplicates of every song. Both versions seem to actually BE there when I check the info. So, I moved what I thought were duplicates into the trash from iTunes, and resigned myself to the fact that I would have to do this manually for each album. I did this with about 10 albums. I emptied the trash and lost them even though they still LOOKED like they were in iTunes. I repeated the process tonight on a bunch of other albums not realizing yet that I had screwed up terribly the first time. This time I saw what had happened and pulled the files out of the trash, onto my desktop and dragged them back into iTunes, then deleted the duplicate files that had exclamation points next to them. Now I have no idea if iTunes is playing duplicate files from the trash or not, and am nervous about emptying the trash. Anyone dealt with this before? Thank you

I used time machine to restore on a formatted MAC. Now the HDD space has reduced by 100GB but I cannot see any of the files. How do I find and delete those 100GB data from the HDD?

Not necessarily. I'd suggest downloading and installing the "combo" update. That's a combination (thus the clever name) of all the updates to Leopard since it was first released, so installing it should fix anything that's gone wrong since then, such as with one of the normal "point" updates. Info and download available at: http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate Be sure to do a +Repair Permissions+ via Disk Utility (in your Applications/Utilities folder) afterwards.
