If you typed in standard English (" I didn't want to know ), it might be easier to understand you.
I made a suggestion which might work to solve your problem with your monitors but if you are to idle to even try it, you will have to solve this for yourself.
Or you could telephone Adobe Tech. Support.

Opening files in 2 monitor setup- CS4

I have searched the discussion db and cannot find an answer. If this has already been answered, please accept my apologies and direct me to the solution.
I am using a 2 monitor set-up, 1) main monitor or startup - menu bar, folders and tools for open applications. 2) calibrated for working on files, nice, clean, no clutter. The problem is that when I open a file in CS4 11.0.2 the file opens on the "main" monitor and I have to drag it over to my work monitor. Not a deal breaker but a constant nuisance. I won't even get into the Color issues which have been discussed here with seemingly no solution. The kicker is that Bridge opens in the work monitor. So, I select a raw file to open, Bridge opens on my work monitor, I make adjustments and select open, the image(s) now open on the main monitor and I have to fish it out and drag it over to the work space. Any thoughts/solutions would be greatly appreciated. Note: this did not occur in CS3 only when I upgraded to CS4.
Thanks
David

It was a big annoyance to me too. I never sorted the problem out, and was surprised when it showed up fixed again in CS5. Unfortunately, I think you are out of luck with CS4.

Kate always open files in a new window after kde upgrade

kate always open files in a new window, instead of the existing window as a new document after kde upgrade to 3.5. someone else have the same experience and have a solution for that ?
cheers,
notz

The problem is solved!
Apparently the Content Disposition: Attachment in the BLOB Download Format Mask does the trick.
For some reason I have to logout and login again in the application to see the change.
I tried changing the Content Disposition to Inline and then back to Attachment, and the file keeps opening in the same window unless I start a new session.
Is there any explanation why it is working that way?
Thanks!

When i Boot up, why is "Preview" always open ?

Hi, i know i dont need to do it, but when i shut down, i have been making sure that all the Programs i have been using are Shut Down, getting rid of the white dots in the Dock.
I know that Finder is always there and cannot be Shut Down, but i Shut Down "Preview" and it is always opened up again when i Start my Lap Top up again.
I guess it isnt that important to know, but why does PREVIEW always OPEN automatically when i Boot Up ?.
thanks for looking.

Why can I not open files saved on a server?

Why can I not open files saved on a server?

I think I figured it out. I set the compatibility mode to Windows Server 2008 (which is the OS on the server we are using) and it opened just fine. Whoop Whoop. Thanks for your help.

Why does iPhoto always open/appear at launch?

Why does iPhoto always open/appear at launch? Someone used my computer under another account, and now my preferences seem to be changed. How do I fix it so iPhoto must me opened manually?

Some possibilities:
Right click on the iPhoto icon in the Dock. Is Open at Log In Selected?
Check your System Preferences -> Accounts -> Log In Items
Is there a camera or anything that your Mac might think is a camera (flash drive, USB Hard Disk formatted to a FAT format, phone) attached to your Mac. If so, disconnect it. If you don't want to disconnect it, set iPhoto to "Do Nothing" when a camera is attached. You do this in the iPhoto Preferences.

How do I get firefox 4 on Windows 7 to 'remember' to open on monitor 2? It keeps opening on the main monitor, only.

When you open a program in a multi-monitor set-up and transfer the program to the second monitor and close it, when it next opens it should open on the second monitor. Firefox 3.x performed this way. Firefox 4 does not -- it only opens on the main monitors, always.
Please build this into the product or provide an option for it?
Thanks,

Update: I forgot something about the way BootCamp installs Windows...
I had temporarily turned off BlueTooth on OS X because I didn't need it, and when you do that, it effectively removes it from the system's list of devices.
So I just wiped the Windows partition, turned BT back on in OS X, and re-installed Windows. Just to make sure, I went through and manually installed all the drivers by hand and then let the BootCamp utility install them as well, and it's been working like a charm!

Why does InDesign always open multiple files in reverse number order?

Whenever I select multiple InDesign files to open, despite being named accordingly Page_01, Page_02, Page_03, etc. InDesign always opens them in reverse order tabs. If I open 10 spreads at once instead of staring at page 1 I'm looking at the back.
Is there any way to fix this? It's driving me mad. I cannot think of why it would be doing this.

Create a book (File -> New -> Book...) and add your files to it. Rearrange the files to the order you want. Then select the needed files and double-click to open them. The tabs will be populated respecting the order the files appear in the book.
Important: BEFORE adding the files to the newly-created book, go to the book panel menu, choose "Book Page Numbering Options..." and deactivate "Automatically Update Page & Section Numbers", to avoid unwanted renumbering of your pages.

Why will CS4 not open DNG files converted from Olympus E-M1 raw files?

For several years I have been able to use the DNG Converter to convert .ORF raw files from my Olympus E-M1 and then open them for processing in CS4. Suddenly CS4 quit recognizing these DNG files saying "Photoshop could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file"
I have not changed any preferences. I'm using E-M1 v3.0, DNG Converter v8.3.0.141 on a Mac. I have deleted DNG converter several times, even reinstalled an earlier version but nothing changes.
However, CS4 will open DNG files converted from Pentax raw .PEF files from my K-5. Weird. It's the Olympus raw DNG conversions that won't open.
I can view the DNG converted files in question in Mac's Preview just fine but not CS4. Any ideas will be appreciated.

Be sure the DNG Converter's compatibility is set to provide support for your version of ACR:

Why does Excel always open old files?

Since upgrading to Mavericks, whenever I open Excel, the last few spreadsheets I was working on when I upgraded are always opened. I can't seem to prevent this behavior. Is anyone else seeing it? Is there a way to stop it doing so?

If you right click a jpg file, you'll see a contextual menu, select 'Get Info' and in the resulting window about mid way down you will see a drop down menu "Open With', select Preview from the list and then don't forget to select "Change All'.
Now all your jpg's will open in Preview.

Bridge CS4 always opens in the same folder

Since I upgraded to Photoshop CS4, Bridge always opens in the same
folder. It used to open up whatever folder I was working on last.
There must be a setting somewhere to tell Bridge to open the last
visited folder but I can't seem to find it. Any ideas?

Thanks Curt. That helped. I do have Bridge set to automatically start with Windows. I thought that shutting down Windows would cause Bridge to remember the last visited folder since Bridge was closed but I need to right-click on the Bridge icon in the system tray and exit before shutting down Windows. At least now I know why this was happening!

Always open files in code view (with option to switch back to design/split)

I almost never use design view and it's very annoying that Dreamwaver CS4 can't seem to understand and remember that. I can be editing a file one day in code view, and when I open the file again the next day it opens in design view!? Is there a setting for this somewhere or is this a bug? Any suggestions for a solution?
Someone suggested I add the relevant suffixes in the "Open in code view" field (Preferences > File Types / Editors) but Adobe has decided that if I choose to always open a certain file type in code view via this method, I will not be allowed to temporarlily switch to design/split view.
Any other suggestions?

All I can suggest is that you post an official feature request via the official form and wait for Adobe to implement something in CS6 or CS7 (assuming the feature set for CS5 is set in stone by now).

I set firefox to open a filetype (.SGF) w/ a program but it doesn't, so I set it to save/ask and neither option works, it always opens file link in a new tab.

I've gone into the Options and set the .SGF file to open with Smartgo. It refuses to do that. Clicking on a link to a .SGF file simply opens the file as text in a new tab.
Since this didn't work, I tried to set firefox to download it instead, because then I can use the window's filetype associations to open it. It won't download the file unless I actually right-click and save-as on the link.
This is tedious when viewing lots of these files. I even set it to Ask me after I saw the the Download option didn't work. It doesn't Ask me. What is going on here?
Also I am using firefox 23
EDIT: It seems to be website specific. Some websites will allow me the option to open it in Smartgo, others will just open it in a tab as text. What is causing this discrepancy and can it be surmounted through browser settings?
An example website to showcase the issue is:
http://igokisen.web.fc2.com/wr/lg.html
clicking on any of these links will not download, open, or ask about what you want to do with the file.

That happens if the server sends the file as text/plain.
You can see this if you open "Tools > Page Info > General": Content-Type: text/plain
Files send this way will always open in a tab.

In CS4, "Cannot open file" "Please upgrade your plug-ins..."

Greetings,
I am using InDesign CS4 on a PC. I am trying to open an .indd file created by our marketing department. I don't know what version of InDesign they use nor whether they work on Macs or PCs.
When I double-click to open the file, I get a "Cannot Open File" popup box. The box reads "Cannot open docname.indd. Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign." It then lists 18 different plugins:
ASSIGNMENTS.RPLN
TEXT.RPLN
SPREAD.RPLN
MASTER PAGE.RPLN
TEXT ATTRIBUTES.RPLN
.... and 13 more.
When I go to Help > Configure Plug-Ins, I can see that I do have all of these plug-ins. But apparently they are not the latest versions.
Anyone know how I can update these plugins? I have searched for them on the Adobe website, but no joy.
Thanks in advance.
Jen

It's a safe bet that they are working in CS5. The only way to get those plugins is to install CS5 on your machine.
You could ask your marketing department to export an IDML file from CS5, which you can open up in CS4, but it might fail horribly (and it's guaranteed to lay out incorrectly if they've used any tools in CS5 that aren't in CS4). If you rely on this workflow, by regularly using a document going back and forth between CS5 and CS4, chances are very, very good that it will fail at a critical moment. The only really safe thing to do here is to get everyone using the same version of InDesign.

Why can't I open files from ACR to CS5?

I have been using CS5/Bridge/ACR for a year now and all of the sudden, I cannot get the RAW images from ACR into CS5. I always open my RAW files from Bridge, make my adjustments in ACR, then select all and open images into CS5. This has always worked just fine, but recently only a random number of images will open, if any at all!
For example, If I select 10 images to open in CS5, it may be 4 that open, or it could be 8, or it could be 0. I haven't done anything new to my computer. I have uninstalled photoshop and reinstalled it twice and that hasn't helped.
I am so frustrated. I thought I purchased a quality product (which I have loved until now since I can't even get my files in to use the program!) and am so dissapointed that I can't use it anymore.
Hopefully someone can help me. I really want to use photoshop again!

You could try to reset Bridge preferences. Hold down the Ctrl key and start Bridge. You should get a reset window with 3 options.
