Why are jpegs opening in preview?

I have my file type association set to CS5, yet suddenly jpegs are opening from Bridge into preview. Anyone know why?

For last few years I had them open in preview from finder, but in Photoshop
from Bridge. Was I just lucky and my luck ran out?
Like Nini I also can't imagine why you should use Apple Preview. You can
view them perfectly in Bridge self when making a custom workspace with big
preview panel. And if you want to alter the jpeg files preview would
probably the last option to do so, especially having Photoshop on your
system ????
But likely you had altered your camera raw preferences in setting jpeg and
tiff files to always open in PS instead of the default setting only jpeg
with altered ACR settings.
When you have set preview as default opening app for jpeg using the info
panel in the finder and the camera raw setting to always open in PS you
probably have back what you want, but why using it that way is still unclear
to me

  • Why are jpegs opening up in photoshop...

    hi... i'm not sure if this will make sense... i'm trying to make a disc of pictures that i have exported as Jpegs from iphoto to my desktop. these are photos that i have edited in photoshop, saved on my desktop as jpegs and transferred to iphoto (because as far as i know there's no way to save from photoshop to iphoto). so a while later i want to make a disc of some of them so i am exporting them as jpegs from iphoto to my desktop. i then am making a burn folder and burning a disc of them. MY QUESTION IS.. how come when i put the disc in either of my macs and click on a photo it is opening it up in photoshop? THESE ARE JPEGS so i don't get it. this disc i am making is for someone else and i want to make sure that they will be able to access these photos.
    thanks in advance.

    thanks for the prompt response- what i want to have happen when i click on the jpeg is that it opens the file on my desktop, not photoshop. am i hearing that if you've done any editing in photoshop, even if you save it as a jpeg, it will always open in photoshop? is there a way to change that? i'm just worried that the person i'm giving the disc to will have a hard time accessing the file. it seems like a pain if it's opening in photoshop--do they then have to resave it themselves as a jpeg to get it out of photoshop so that they can upload the file and get prints? when i tried the disc on my husbands computer, it opened in adobe photoshop and my husband has never even used that.  before i had PS i would just export them to the desktop from iphoto and it just opened them up on the desktop. it's weird that these photos have been imported into iphoto but they're still opening up in PS. again, is there a way to change this? sorry if this doesn't make sense.

  • How to stop photos opening in preview. I have always edited photos right from my desktop and now they are all opening in preview.

    I have always edited photos right from my desktop and now they are all opening in preview. How do I change it back? Thanks!

    They open in Preview by default.
    However, if you open Picture Folder in Preview, navigate to any photo ( without opening it ) then right click on the photo and select Get Info from the dropdown menu.
    About  2/3rds' of the way down on the Get Info tab you'll see a Marker ' Open WIth '. Enter whichever editing program you're using.
    Whenever you open a photo from whatever it's location it will open in the chosen editing program.
    Hope this helps.

    Sorry to hear you are having so much trouble.  The good news is you can return it within 14 days of purchase for any reason.  Return it and have them give you another.

  • Mail: why are draft edits in preview pane not saved?

    Hi,
    when viewing drafts in the preview pane, the preview pane accepts edits, which it doesn't when displaying received mails. However once I highlight another draft in my drafts folder, so that the preview pane shows something else, and then return to the supposedly edited draft, the edits are lost.
    Am I just not getting it, or how do you save edits to drafts made in the preview pane. If editing in preview pane is not actually possible, why does it accept edits then?
    Many thanks if someone can shed some light on this :-)
    p.

    D/L Thunderbird but not set it up as active on line program. No new mail settings etc. Most of the old copied file folders were set as "read only" which I understand is the default of backups and causes problems on non rewrite DVD. Not a problem on ex - HD. I do not understand but it seems TB sets up an "APPS DATA" file that it separate from regular data files (but both are in Documents library). One on-line suggestion was to copy old "APPS DATA" into new TB structure ( a replacement) It did not work. Then tried replacing just parts with no better luck.
    I only want to open the old files. No desire to going back to TB as working program. Use Chrome and gmail now.
    Explorer2 film management program can preview the email in the old file but TB sees it as an empty file.

  • Why are the open windows not listed in any kind of order?

    It's bad enough there's no menu showing all the open tabs, but why does the dropdown menu for open Windows not be in ANY order whatsoever? It would certainly stop having to look up and down the list every time I want to go to a different window if they were in either alphabetical or chronological order.

    The windows listed in the Window menu are in chronological order starting with the oldest window near the top and the newest window at the bottom.
    The problem might be that you've opened a new tab in an old window. The windows are still listed in the same order but now they have the name of the newest tab.
    In my screenshot I opened this question in a new tab in my oldest window.

  • Why are Photoshop 7 Icons/previews incomplete in Tiger sometimes?

    Just upgraded to a super whizzy G5 (Mac user of 15 years)....Tiger is behaving OK most of the time. Problem is, Photoshop icons are incomplete in column view - they often only show one layer of a file, not the composite pic. Files are saved in Photoshop 7 in Classic (so many useful legacy plug-ins with no OSX versions!), with save all (Mac & Windows) thumbnails checked in file saving prefs.
    The thing is, this only occurs sporadically - sometimes the previews are complete, sometimes they are not...any clues?

    I've mentioned this to Apple a couple of times both here in the Lounge via the moderators, and in the public OS X feedback page.
    All previews worked just fine under Panther. But they definitely changed something in Tiger with QuickTime or something that effects previews in the Open dialogue box. If you have a bunch of Photoshop .eps files among a few TIFFs for instance, all of the .eps files will display just fine until you display a TIFF. Then the .eps files will only show a small display of the b&w 4 language message about the file being an .eps. Quiting out of the Open box and reopening it is the only way to continue. But the same thing will happen every time you go from an .eps to another format. Doesn't matter if you're in Photoshop looking at raster .eps images, or Freehand or Illustrator viewing vector .eps files in the Open dialogue. Or any other app that can view .eps icons. Going from an .eps to something else, or from another format to .eps always kills the .eps view icons.
    Bugs me that this still hasn't been fixed. I'm going to copy this to Feedback again.

  • Why are jpegs printing dark from InDesign?

    When I create documents with jpegs, they print very dark from InDesign CS5.5. When I print the jpeg from my desktop, it comes out exactly as it appears on my monitor.
    I'm sure there is a setting that I need to change, but I'm not sure what it could be.

    OK. That's a start.
    If you go to Edit > Color Settings... Does the dialog say they are sychronized? If not, you should do the same in Photoshop and make note of what the settings are, then in Bridge go to Edit > Creative Suite Color Settings and reset them there to the ones from Photoshop, then go back to your InDesign File and go to Edit > Assign Profiles... and assign the smae RGB and CMYK profiles listed for the color settings in Photoshop.
    That should give you the same output, but there's still one more place to check. In the Print dialog, under Output, reset the Send Data field to All.

  • Why Are Pages Opening in New Tabs Instead of Within the Pages?

    Up until I upgraded to 10.1.10, tabs would almost always open in the same page as the link that contained it. If I wanted it to open in a new tab, or window, I can do that myself, using a menu. Now, it opens many more tabs than I need open, and only clutters up the screen, & adds more RAM usage to the already lumbering browser. Why is this happening, and is there any way to correct this?

    No, cause it happens on many sites. I don't see what makes it do that for most, but then once in a while, it will open over the current page, like it almost always did before. I know it does this when I click a link from any Google search results page, which I don't recall it doing before. Up till now (5.1.10), there was always a preference setting where I could select links opening in new tabs, or not. Now, they open wherever they choose to, usually in new tabs, but sometimes not....
    Here's my options:
    "Open pages in tabs instead of windows:
    Some links on webpages open in new Safari windows instead of replacing the current webpage. Choose Never to have such links open in new Safari windows instead of tabs. Choose Always to open new tabs instead of windows.
    Choose Automatically to have Safari open pages in tabs unless they’re designed to fit in specially formatted separate windows; Safari opens those pages in windows instead."
    So, none of these choices allow for pages to replace current webpages, which makes no sense.

  • Why are my open tab thumbnails missing?

    Samsung Galaxy S3. Until today I could see a "stack" of thumbnails representing my open tabs when I click the "page" icon in the upper right corner of the browser window. This would allow me to easily jump from one tab to another. Now when I click on the "page" icon I see only the thumbnail representing the currently open page. If I scroll up in the thumbnail area I will scroll through the open tabs. Scrolling down closes the selected tab. I can not get Firefox back to its original settings. Please help or I will have to uninstall Firefox and install another browser.

    Hmm, my tabs screen looks the same as other recent versions. Could you double check both the non-private and private tabs (the two icons at the upper left of the tabs screen) in case your missing tabs are in the other category?

  • Why are PSDs opening with flattened type?

    I'm opening PSDs in Photoshop CS5 Version 12.0.4 x 64 on my Mac and its flattening type layers.  It does it randomly, and I just open my PSDs through the recent documents menu.
    Anyone having this issue?

    Are you sure the fonts are loaded?
    Could you or someone else have checked »Don’t show again« in the warning dialog?

  • Why are apps opening upon start up in Macbook Pro?

    Whatever apps were open prior to shutting down continue to re open when I turn on my macbook pro.  None are listed in my startup programs, yet excel, iMessage, Safari and email open everytime I turn on my computer

    Yes you need to uncheck "Reopen windows when logging back in" when you shut down and also if you don't want perticular application being opened in startup and you don't want to see it in dock,double click on the app on dock and goto options-> and uncheck it "open at login". Hope this helps..thanks.

  • Why are images opened in new tabs expanding past 100%

    When opening an image of any type in a new tab, it will scale down as normal, but when clicked to "fullsize," it zooms in past 100%, approximately the equivalent of two adjustments of the scroll wheel in.
    Example: I have a 1920 x 1080 display, and if I expand a 1920x1200 image, the width far exceeds the horizontal boundaries (which should be identical, allowing no horizontal scrolling. To better describe this, here's an example: http://i.imgur.com/UfbqFnD.gif
    Note the brackets highlighting the extra scrolling space on the bottom image.
    I have a high dpi display (1920x1080, 15.6 in screen,) have tried setting Firefox to Disable Display Scaling on High DPI Settings, but to no avail.
    Firefox v 31.0
    Windows 8.1, 64 bit
