Unable to open jpeg in photoshop from Bridge

Hi
I recently installed CS5 Production Premium on a Windows 7 computer. I have been unable to open Jpegs by right clicking the mouse. When I get the 'open with' tab, the default states Com Surrogate 6.1.
I am unable to ascertain how to set Photoshop as the default programme to open JPEG files.
Any assistance woul be appreciated!
Regards
RoeBean

Default programs (at least in CS3) are in edit/preferences/file type associations. Scroll down the list to change the default opening program.

I have Adobe Photoshop CS4 and have just upgraded my Mac operating system to Yosemite with the newest version of Java 2014 running. When I try to access Photoshop from Bridge or directly open it asks for a Legacy Version of Java 6. As I am a pensioner I cannot afford an upgrade does anyone know of a work-around for this problem?

Hi Daddyfred,
CS4 Photoshop has not been tested on Yosemite. But still you can try the Java 6 update using the below link.

Unable to open JPEG's directly in Photoshop

I had my Bridge preferences set to open JPEGs in Camera Raw. I recently disabled this option but Bridge stubbornly refuses to open JPEGs in Photoshop and I still end up in Camera Raw. The options to open JPEGs in Camera Raw have been turned off in Bridge prefs and Camera Raw prefs. What is going on!

JC,
There are at least three places where you set that, not just in Bridge but
also in Photoshop and ACR. Check ALL your preferences.
>What is going on!
PEBKAC? :)

Tiff previously edited in ACR will not open in Camera RAW from Bridge

Yes, I have googled this and found instances going back to 2010 with no satisfactory answer. I have Photoshop 5.1 and the latest ACR and Bridge that work with it. 2011 MAC Mini 10.8.2.
I scanned a landscape oriented printed email image at 800 spi as a portrait orientation and saved it as a tiff. I opened this tiff in Preview and decided it needed more than minor tweaks so I opened it in ACR from Bridge, made a few adjustments and saved it. I thought I could see what I was doing better if it was in landscape orientation again so I opened it in Preview and rotated 90 deg CCW, saved it as a tiff. Going to Bridge I found Open in Camera Raw greyed out. I went back to Preview to see if I could get what I needed in its Tools while viewing it in landscape. Adjustments took forever this time, so I gave up and took a look at the image characteristics. Rotating in Preview had changed the image size to 3.3333...... times larger at 240 ppi still aRGB, still a tiff. This has never happened before, including slow adjustments
I duplicated the rotated file and changed it back to 800 ppi and normal size, went to Bridge, Camera Raw still greyed out. Original unrotated image
that had been edited in ACR and saved will still open in ACR.
All kinds of strange things have happened since updating to 10.8.2, but I don't think this is one of them because of the complaints I have seen that date back to 2010. I did a full maintenance routine, i e cleared RAM, reboot in single user with fsck -fy, repaired permissions, back up with SuperDuper which repairs permissions again. Then I tried Bridge again, original will open, rotated won't.
Anyone know the answe?

The answer is that making edits in ACR and saving it creates layers in the tiff and Bridge will then not open it again in ACR unless you flatten it. I still don't know why Preview increased the image size by 3.333.....x or why ACR increased the tiff file size by 2.6x and why the flattened tiff is 2x the file size of the original scan but the image dimensions are the same. This stuff apparently is above the pay grade of anyone in google, too.

Adobe creative suite cs5: unable to open files in photoshop. unable to drag objects on illustrator..

Adobe creative suite cs5: unable to drag objects on illustrator or indesign. unable to open files in photoshop, brush doesnt work in photoshop.
In the past I uninstalled adobe creative suite cs5 from my laptop, used the adobe creative cloud cleanup tool, restarted and then reinstalled the programs and everything worked again for about a week. Now everything has gone back to the way it was again and this time the uninstalling and reinstalling isnt helping.
Any ideas?
Im pretty desperate!!
Thanks
Alisa

Hi Alisa
I'm having exactly the same problem. Uninstalled CS4 and reinstalled the 30 day trial of the Creative Cloud and it's stil having the same glitches, not opening in photoshop and not being able to drag/move objects in Illustrator or inDesign.
Did you find a solution to this problem?
Thanks

Why won't files open in Camera Raw from Bridge?

I am trying to open files in Camera raw from Bridge but get the following message.
"Bridge's parent application is not active."
Both Bridge and CS5 are open and I have opened camera raw previously.
Any suggestions.
Cheers

Ah this is just because I haven't fully updated my bridge yet, but the solution still works fine

The video shows replacing a current DLL file with one from last year - the key issue being that the files found in the Bridge and Photoshop folders are DIFFERENT. Why would this be? I checked a PS CS5.1 installation myself and the files are already the same. Is there an illegitimate copy of Photoshop being used or something, causing these files to differ? -Noel

[Solved] Unable to open JPEGs after update

I ran an system update today, and I am now unable to open JPEGs. For example, nitrogen can set PNGs as the current wallpaper, but not JPEGs. In the terminal, the error:
(nitrogen:5408): glibmm-CRITICAL **:
unhandled exception (type Glib::Error) in signal handler:
domain: gdk-pixbuf-error-quark
code : 3
what : Couldn't recognize the image file format for file '/dc/media/wallpaper/background.jpg'
is given whenever I try to set a JPEG as wallpaper. Furthermore, mirage doesn't recognize JPEGs as existing.
During the update, libjpeg-turbo was installed, and I am wondering if this might have something to do with this.
Anyone have suggestions?

Could you please rebuild one of those programs which doesn't work anymore against libjpeg-turbo? In case that solves the problem, it would be very helpful for Allan to know. But in my opinion this is definitely something for the bugtracker!

Cannot open JPEGs in ACR via Bridge

The strangest thing has happened recently. Where I used to be able to open a JPEG file in Camera Raw 6.3 when viewing in Bridge (CS5) it now defaults to opening them only in Photoshop (CS5). My preferred processing workflow is: Adobe Bridge > Camera Raw > Photoshop. But now the middle step processing in ACR is no longer happening automatically (I can do it manually but that's a hassle). I triple checked all my preferences and they are still set up to open JPEGs in ACR as the default. I use a Nikon D700 & D7000 and the NEF (RAW) files open fine in ACR, but not the JPEGs. I am using the Mac versions.
Has something changed with how Adobe is supporting JPEGs in ACR or am I missing something.

This is a workaround rather than a cure............................. for cs5 users............
If you are unable to open .jpg files in adobe Camera RAW from Bridge and the Preferences have been set correctly in Photoshop Preferences, and all avenues have been exhausted or you are getting the error message in Bridge when you right click, or ctrl + r, or go to the ‘Open in Camera RAW’ button at the top of Bridge and also Getting the error message :
‘Camera Raw Editing Is not Enabled, Camera Raw Editing Requires that a Qualifying Product has been Launched at least once to Enable this Feature’
And Bridge does open up RAW files OK
Try this
1. In bridge, hit the ctrl + Alt key together and double click the .JPG image, this should open in Camera RAW (but only the one image clicked, not multiple files.
or
2. Open Photoshop
Go to File.....
Browse in MIniBridge.........
Browse for folder containing images..............
Find image, right click and open in camera RAW
(if you wish to open multiple files, when a number of images have been selected, the Camera Raw menu disappears when you right click), however, hold down the Alt + Crtl key together (Windows) and double click any of the highlighted images, they will all open in Camera RAW as they should do.

Opening JPEG in Photoshop CS3

When i double click a JPEG thumbnail in Bridge CS3 it opens up in Paint.How do i get it to open up in Photoshop CS3.If i double click a PSD thumbnail it opens up in Photoshop CS3,but not the JPEG's.Have i got something set wrong.Thank You.Robert

Locate any JPG in Windows Explorer.
Right click.
Choose 'Open With'
Tick 'always use this program".
Select the application you want (ie PS CS3).
Same logic applies throughout Windows, so you can use this method to associate any extension with any program.

Opening JPEGs in ACR from the Organizer

Many Photoshop Elements users like to edit JPEGs and other non-raw file formats with the Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) plug-in to Photoshop Elements. But if you rely on the Organizer for managing your files, opening a JPEG in ACR is clumsy – in the Editor, you must do File > Open As > Camera Raw and then navigate to the folder containing the file.
I've written a script, EditInACR, with which you can open JPEGs and other non-raw files directly in ACR from the Organizer. You configure the Organizer to use EditInACR as an external editor, and then you use the Organizer’s Edit > Edit With command to open selected files. You can download the script at:
http://johnrellis.com/editinacr/

I've put out a new version of EditInACR that should work with PSE 6, 7, and 8, on Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7, both 32- and 64-bit. (The previous version didn't work on 64-bit or with PSE 8.)

Please let me know if you encounter any issues, thanks.

Can't open JPGs into ACR from Bridge - Windows XP

I was using CS3 on a Windows XP Machine, just installed the latest updates from adobe (to 2.0.0.10 I believe) and can no longer open JPGs in Camera Raw by hitting CTRL-R. I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling all the adobe suite, (back to 2.0.0.95 Bridge and 4.0 ACR)but that didn't help. Now, it seems that some jpgs will open into ACR and some won't. I can't find any differences in these files. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I want the option of opening in raw easily, would rather avoid having to go and check that preference box to open all images in raw every time I want to do so. Thanks!

Bridge should be version 2.1.1.9 and Camera Raw newest release is 4.3.
Unfortunately your bound to set prefs to open jpegs in RAW, I put the ability of opening jpeg and tiff as a choice in ACR or directly in PSCS as a feature request. maybe you will support this, the more people that want it the better it would be :-)

Photos open in random order from bridge

Hi all,
This issue has been bugging me, trying to open the image in sequence from Bridge CS3 to Photoshop CS3.
The images in bridge is in sequence and all I did was select all and double click. My iMac at home works fine but my iMac at studio don't seems to like the sequence at all.
Hope there is a solution to it.
Regards,
Hart

DYP - thanks for response. However, if I select all files in Finder they open in Preview not PS. If I want to open them in PS I have to drag them to the PS icon when they open in random order. The problem has been solved by using Bridge but I would be interested to know more details of your solution.

Hello courtneym48375386,
Could you please let me know what version of Outlook are you using.
Please try opening some other PDF file and check if the same issue persists as this might be a document specific issue.
Also, what happens if you try opening the file in Acrobat?
Let me know.
