Windows cannot find Photoshop CS5 Error in Bridge

This is really about Photoshop CS6 Beta but this error is generated whenever I tried to open a file from Bridge, either Bridge [12.1 or 13.0].  It was frustrating at first.
I tried to figure out why I was receiving this message.  Originally, I had Photoshop CS5 on my system.  Then, I upgraded to Photoshop CS5 Extended.  Finally, I installed Photoshop CS6 Beta.  After the last install, I decided to uninstall Photoshop CS5 which I no longer used.  These are 64-bit programs but I doubt that makes a difference.  Whenever I opened Bridge for Photoshop CS5 Extended or Photoshop CS6 Beta, the shown error would generate.  After reviewing the error closely, I decided to try and look at file associations but not in Windows as I had no problems elsewhere.  It must be in Bridge.
I went to Edit -> Preferences and found a File Type Associations section with every file type it uses.  Sure enough, by clicking on the triangle to the right of the file type, it showed only Photoshop.  By clicking on Browse and going to the Photoshop CS6 Beta folder, I was able to change a couple of the ones I use exclusively and clicked OK.  Afterwards, no problems.  To change each and every one of those is going to require some time on my part.
This brings up an important question regarding upgrades.  I think most of us upgrade before uninstalling the old version.  Here are my questions:
1. Why did not the Bridge associated with the extended version change the file associations to the appropriate version of CS5 when it was installed?
2. Why did not the Bridge associated with Photoshop CS6 Beta change the file associations to this version when installed?
At the very least, it should be an option but I think it should actually point to the new version.  Is this a bug in the Bridge software?  I know Bridge is used for other Adobe applications but this definitely seems to be a bug when the only application iis Photoshop.  I have Lightroom 4 also installed but this application does not use Bridge.  Can this be corrected?

Looks like bridge is still trying to run the old version.  Did you uninstall Photoshop CC after installing Photoshop CC 2014?
Have you made sure and fully closed Bridge and reopened it?  Logging off and back on would ensure that.
Failing the above, people have reported success with using the Creative Cloud Cleaner tool followed by a reinstall of Photoshop CC 2014...

  • Fix "Windows cannot find" designated webpage error on launch; only with Epic, not firefox.

    When Epic is launched from a desktop Icon calling for a particular web page, it throws up a "Windows cannot find" Specified site error box, but then goes ahead and loads the site. It only happens with Epic; never had this problem with the regular Firefox browser.
    I make these Icons by dragging from the address bar once I reach the site. It is a quick way to return later.
    Very frustrating, please help.

    Firefox 21 and Firefox 22 running on Windows 7 have been reported to take a long time to "wake up" from sleep. I realize hibernation is different than sleep, but... this is the closest match for your description.
    Some users have reported that this problem is resolved in Firefox 23 (currently in beta). Others have had inconsistent luck with minimizing Firefox before letting Windows sleep and other measures.
    Please check out this (very long) thread for more information: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/961898 browser freezes after resuming from sleep]
    Or jump to the part about Firefox 23: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/961898?page=3#answer-457321
    The fact that this just started recently suggests perhaps it is related to another program or update, but I don't think anyone has confirmed the exact interaction that causes the problem.

  • Bridge to PS CC 2014:  Error "Windows Cannot Find Photoshop CC" for PSD & TIFF files

    Since installing PS CC 2014, I have been unable to open PSD & TIFF files from within Bridge.  If I do- I get the error above.   Once Photoshop CC 2014 was installed, I removed the older version of PS CC. 
    Sounds like a registry issue created when PS CC 2014 installed alongside PS CC; confusing Bridge of where to send Photoshop files.

  • Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4(64bit)...'

    I've just installed the CS6 upgrade on my WIndows VIsta x64 bit machine.
    Just now, I opened a folder of files in Bridge CS6.
    I highlighted one of the files and selected Ctrl/o to host Camera Raw in Photoshop, which is what I always do.
    But, I got an error message saying that Windows cannot find Photoshop CS4.
    I did uninstall CS5 after installing the upgrade, if that makes any difference.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.
    D.

    For some users an uninstall of previous version wrecks havoc with file associations.
    First try edit/preferences/file type associations.  Click on reset "reset to default associations".  If that does not work click on individual file and set default to CS6.
    If the above does not work you either have to unistall CS6, run the Adobe Script Cleaner or read registry solution in this link.  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1005273?tstart=0

  • Windows cannot find ...wmplayer.ext error with CS5 and Win7x64

    I have the Master Collection installed on a Z800 dual quad core with 36 GB of RAM with a Quadro 3800 and everything runs in Master Collection fairly well so far, but when I am in bridge trying to play AVCHD files either from my Canon HF30 or my HMC150 through Bridge (CS5), I recieve a Windows dialouge box that states
    'Windows cannot find "%Program Files(x86)%\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe'  Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.
    Any ideas?  I can navigate to where the video's are from in Windows explorere and when I double click on them they play just fine in WMP.
    Any help woudl be appreciated.

    I'll try renaming a file to .mts and see how it responds.  Thanks.
    The interesting thing here is that some Adobe products support AVCHD files while others don't.   I have Premiere Elements 8.0 on my laptop.  Premiere Elements includes a file manager called Organizer which functions like Bridge; that is to say, it is used to preview, rank and overall, manage media assets.  My .m2ts files both preview and play perfectly in Adobe's Organizer.  I have spent weeks talking to Adobe's technical support staff and have been passed to more than 20 different people.  None of the support staff seem to understand this issue.  They surely don't have a look at these forums, unfortunately.  They closed my case without a solution.
    I've considered installing Premiere Elements on my desktop PC solely to have a functioning file asset manager, but I don't know if it would result in conflicts or other problems.
    Thanks for your response.  It's worth a try for sure.

  • Bridge Cannot Find Photoshop

    I'm running CS6.  When I'm in Bridge and double click a photo, I get the following error message:
    "Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."
    I don't know why it's looking for CS4, given that I upgraded to CS5.5 over a year ago and then to CS6 about a year ago.

    Did you delete CS4?  If so some users experience file association problems.
    First try edit/preferences/file type association.  CHange the extension to CS6.  If that does not work see this link for a registry fix. 
    I installed Photoshop CS6, then found CS5 was still there. I thought, hey, I don't need CS5 anymore, so I uninstalled CS5. then I found out that Photoshop was no longer available in 'Open with' when right-clicking an image...
    So I went into the Registry, HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\Photoshop.exe\shell\open\command, and changed the (Default) from "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1" to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1" (so changed CS5 to CS6) - and now I see 'Adobe Photoshop CS6' in my 'Open with' list when right-clicking an image...

  • Receiving an error message when connecting to internet saying: windows cannot find "address" but it connects anyway???

    The error message that appears when trying to access internet says that windows cannot find "address" and asks to make sure it was typed in correctly. It continues to connect but is a hassle to deal with the error message each time. Any suggestions?

    What is the ip address you are getting on the Vista Computer..?
    Click Start >> All Programs >> Accessories >> Command Prompt...A black box will appear(Command Prompt)...In the Command Prompt window type ipconfig and press 'Enter'...Look for Wireless Network Connection IP Address , Subnet Mask and Default Gateway...
    IP Address should be 192.168.1.x, Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1 (assuming your router is 192.168.1.1)...
    If you get the above mentioned IP Address, Subnet and Gateway Address then you should ping the Gateway, type ping 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...If it gives you request timed out then disable any firewalls, security softwares on the computer...
    If you get 4 replies then type ping 4.2.2.2 and press Enter, if you get request timed out, then you need to upgrade your router's firmware...If you get 4 replies then type ping yahoo.com and press Enter...If you get replies for Yahoo then you should get the Internet after adjusting the browser settings...
    Adjusting Browser Settings : Open an IE, click Tools >> Internet Options, then delete all files, cookies, history, forms...Goto "Connections", make sure Never Dial a Connection is checked, click on LAN Settings and make sure all the options are unchecked...Once you are done click on O.k...Close the IE and re-open it...
    If yahoo times out then provide static DNS on your LAN Connection...
    Click on the Start button >>> Settings >>> Control Panel >>>Network Connections- Right click on the icon for Wireless Network Connection and go to properties- On the 'General' tab select 'Internet Protocol TCP/IP' and click on the Properties button- Select 'Use the Following DNS Settings' Preferred DNS 4.2.2.2 Alternate DNS - 192.168.1.1>>Click on Ok button to Save and Click on "Close" on main Properties window...You should be able to go online...

  • "Windows cannot find the microsoft software license terms" Windows 8.1 Installation Error - Parallels

    I'm trying to install Windows 8.1 via Parallels on my Macbook Pro.
    I create a new VM and use the .ISO file and get the error: "Windows cannot find the microsoft software license terms. Make sure the installation sources are valid and restart the installation."
    I found this question was answered here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/b1021d66-9774-4b5b-b50b-ad860c5ecc89/windows-8-enterprise-rtm-installation-error?forum=w8itproinstall
    However, following the steps of the solution did not work for me. I created a blank VM and chose Windows 8.1. After this, it asks me to insert the installation disc. I cannot figure out how to use the .ISO as the source at this point. I tried copying and
    pasting the path to the file and dragging the file to the VM, but no luck.
    If there is a way I can install this without this error message or by somehow getting the path to the .ISO that'd be perfect.

    Hi,
    According to your description, I would like to confirm if you have unchecked the Express installation box.
    Be sure to uncheck 'Express Installation' when installing, otherwise Windows setup will fail with an error "cannot find license terms" and get stuck in a reboot cycle.
    I suggest you refer to the following link to use Parallels Desktop to install Windows 8.1.

  • X200: Windows cannot find file error (& cygwin problem)

    Often (about half the time) when I double click an icon (.docx files typically) to open I get a error reading"Windows cannot find ‘C\Users\username\Desktop\filename.docx’. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."   I can *always* resolve this by simply double clicking again.   I ran  a complete disk check (the thing that runs on reboot) and it passed with no errors.  OS: Vista with all updates, Apps: Office 2007 with all updates.  Disk: Solid state (128GB) SAMSUNG MMCQE28G8MUP-0VA
    Any suggestions for troubleshooting tips? 
     I also wonder if this might be related to the following problem.  I have CYGWIN installed, and once I have changed a file in emacs and saved it, emacs can no longer find it (no matter what I do).  These days I get the message within emacs "file is not readable", although in the past the error has said something about a fork.

    Have you run across this thread while trying to resolve this problem - How to start Workbench (Toplink 10g) Not sure if it applies to your situation, but thought it might be helpful.
    If this doesn't help, perhaps you can paste the contents of your workbench.cmd file into this thread and we can try to debug the issue further.

  • Hi why I can't download itunes on my hubby's laptop?It showing an error message "windows cannot find C:\document and settings\pistolero\mymusic...

    Hi why I can't download itunes on my hubby's laptop?It showing an error message "windows cannot find C:\document and settings\pistolero\mymusic... We have itunes before and he accidentally delete it..

    ... We have itunes before and he accidentally delete it..
    If Windows cannot find then the path you referenced (C:\document and settings\pistolero\mymusic...) then it is gone.
    Download and install iTunes again: http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    Once iTunes is installed you can download your purchased music again. This assumes what you purchased is still available in the Store. Here is the procedure:
    Launch iTunes.
    Click on iTunes Store on the left
    On the right you will see this
    Sign in with your Apple ID, then click on "Purchased" (with the orange blob)
    On the summary page that appears select the tab "Not on This Computer" on the right.
    On the list that appears, select what you want and then click the "Download" button.
