  • Can't make the default program for PDF files Adobe Reader 9

    Hello. I have trouble changing the default program for the pdf files of Adobe Reader 9. Whenever I select the program, it does not appear. I'd appreciate any help. Thank you.

    Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but here is your solution:

  • How can I make Firefox (9) the default browser for Android (2.3.4) on a Motorola Bionic (5.5.893.XT875)?

    Several suggestions online (for example, through the Manage Applications-All-Browser, or the settings of Firefox) have not worked. Browser 'faults clear"is grayed out, probably because there is no set of default values, and I've yet to find how to put everything. Firefox has no button 'Settings' and 'Website Options' or 'Préférences' means making FF by default. Whenever I click on a link, FF appears as an option, however, and it works fine.

    You need get the Actions dialogue box to appear and check the use as default action at the bottom of the list. One of the common ways for this to appear is to follow a link to a program of e-mail or a social network like Facebook or Twitter application.

    Assuming you have Reader 9.3.4 already installed on your machine, you can try the following to make demand opening of default PDF Reader 9.3.4:

    1. right click on any PDF on your system, and then click the option 'Open with' from the context menu that appears. In case you get another submenu, click on program selected in this menu. (Where you don't see 'Open with' option, then hold down the SHIFT key and right-click on the file)

    2. click on the Browse button in the dialog box that appears, select Reader 9. Make sure you check the box "always use the selected program to open this type of file"

    3. click on OK.

    This will make Adobe Reader 9 as the default viewer for all PDF files on your system.

  • How can I make a printer the default printer?

    I have several printers, but I want my b & w laser printer is the default, especially for sites that does not give me an impression box with options. Currently, some sites send data to my bubble jet all-in-one, a printer, I'd rather NOT use.

    I had the same problem, with the return to an all in one printer that I use rarely, ignoring the Firefox default laser printer. I cured it by removing the all-in-one and printing from Firefox. The next time I rebooted, Windows "found new hardware", but Firefox remembered the laser as a default printer.

  • The default program for .ai files is Bridge and Windows won't let me change it.

    My computer refuses to associate with Illustrator .ai files. On the contrary, she associated bridge.  Even when you right-click on a file and go to "open with...". "Illustrator is not an option.  It is especially annoying because I like to work with objects smart AI in the PS and when I go to edit a smart object, my computer tries to open it in Bridge (then what's happening, it's the folder Temp opens in Bridge and I have to hang out in Illustrator to edit.)  It is a huge obstacle to productivity, and I'd like to get this resolved.  Here are some pictures of what happens when I try to edit it in Windows.  First of all, you will see that illustrator is not a recommended as default of AI program.

    And when I go to browse and select Illustrator CC 64 - bit, it brings back me to the dialog box 'Open with' above as if I had not done something.

    Thanks for any help that anyone can provide.

    Hi guys

    I found the solution to your problem.

    The problem is that Illustrator CS6 and CC is using the same name 'Illustrator' so when you go for example CC folder and choose windows illustrator.exe already sees Illustrator was added and just jump back to the same screen.

    If you look in the folder C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS6 \Support Files\Contents\Windows (64-bit), you will see the name of the file (illustrator.exe)

    If you look in the folder C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CC (64 Bit) \Support Files\Contents\Windows you will see the name of the file (illustrator.exe)

    If you change the file illustrator.exe for CS6 or CC for example IllustratorCC.exe for the record CC

    Change the names of these for example

    If you look in the folder C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS6 \Support Files\Contents\Windows (64-bit), you will see the name of the file (illustratorCS6.exe)

    If you look in the folder C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CC (64 Bit) \Support Files\Contents\Windows you will see the name of the file (illustratorCC.exe)

    Then, you will be able to add them to the list of associated files.

    You can do this for all applications from Photoshop, first, AE, etc, are all the same

    Hope this helps

    Thank you

  • How change PS cs6 are not the default program to open files.

    I have PSCS4 and PSCS6 of the trial. CS6 open all my RAW and PSD files by default now. I want to open PS CS4 PSD and RAW default, like her, CS6 being single trial.

    I have a Mac Pro, OS X 10.7.4. (Lion)

    I tried to change it in this way:

    File - Get info - open with-change of CS4 - change (use this application to open all documents like that one). It won't allow me not, falls to the PS CS6.

    I can open files by clicking right and chosen PSCS4, (shown as Adobe Photoshop CS4.app (11.0.2(11.0.2x20100519 [20100519.r.592 2010/05/19:02:00:00:00 coupure; branche r]))

    This long arm for CS4 name appeared after I installed CS6.

    Is it possible to do this on Mac? I can't find anywhere the file associations and the program.

    Thanks for the help,

    Something to try:

    • Open Adobe Bridge CS4.
    • Go to Preferences - file types Association dialog box.
    • Click on the [ reset to default Associations].

    Hello

    Could a right click on the PDF file > open with > choose program by default and select CD player as default PDF Viewer.

    You can do it from the control panel as well.

    This would make CD player as default PDF Viewer.
