• Problems when opening a photo directly with lightroom (excluding a file with the "Open with" option)

  Hi, when I installed everything first to lightroom, I open images directly into a folder with a right click on the image and choose 'Open with' option. Lightroom is a program offered in the list. After update of lightroom, the program is no longer in the list. I could manually choose the path and the exe file, but it still doesn't work.

  I found somewhere on the internet a solution where we had to change some paths in the registry for lightroom and delete the other values. He worked thereafter (apparently, the values in the registry is not updated during the update of the programme). When I switched to lightroom 6 is the same thing (can't directly open images more). Unfortunately, I didn't copy the page with the solution and I can't find any more. Anyone know how to fix this?

  OK, I found the solution: How do I put Lightroom.4.2 in 'Open with'?

• "Safari opens with:" option missing

  I have 2 Macs, both execution of the updated OS X with Safari 9.1 (11601.5.17.1).  On the same machine, the first option in preferences > general is "Safari opens with:" but this line does not appear in the General preferences on the other machine.  Why the difference?  I can add this option to the version where it is absent?

  This has to with the option "close windows when you exit an application" enabled in system preferences > general

  

  When her option "Close windows when you exit an application" turned on, "Safari opens with' preferences option will be available.

  

  When her option 'close the windows when you exit an application' is disabled, preferences option "Safari opens with" is not available.

  

• BUG: Open with option missing for M4A / ALAC files (OSX)

  I just discovered this bug incredibly frustrating just starting to work with M4A / ALAC (Apple Lossless Audio aka) files. Right click on a such file and by going to the "Open with" menu, hearing is absent from the list. However, manually opening the same file via by dragging the icon of the hearing or the program while open, or even via the command Open Audio in Audition all work fine. These M4A files are converted directly from iTunes. This forum works hearing CC 2014.

  After some research, I found out the reason why. The file Info.plist inside the Audition.app-> content file is apparently not a section of CFBundleTypeExtension for M4A files. Open that file and search for "CFBundleTypeExtensions." You will see a bunch of entries for this type. In fact, this piece of information tells OSX what file extensions/types can open hearing.

  Example of the type of mp3 file:

  	< dict >
  		< key > CFBundleTypeExtensions < / key >
  		< table >
  			< string > mp3 < / string >
  		< / array >
  		< key > CFBundleTypeIconFile < / key >
  		< string > au_document_secondary_mp3.icns < / string >
  		< key > CFBundleTypeName < / key >
  		MP3 Audio file < string > < / string >
  		< key > CFBundleTypeRole < / key >
  		< string > editor < / string >
  	< / dict >

  So the next logical step, I created a duplicate just below it to M4A:

  	< dict >
  		< key > CFBundleTypeExtensions < / key >
  		< table >
  			M4A < string > < / string >
  		< / array >
  		< key > CFBundleTypeIconFile < / key >
  		< string > au_document_secondary_m4a.icns < / string >
  		< key > CFBundleTypeName < / key >
  		Apple MPEG-4 audio < string > < / string >
  		< key > CFBundleTypeRole < / key >
  		< string > editor < / string >
  	< / dict >

  Save the file, restart the computer or rebuild Launch Services database and restart OSX and viola, now when right click on a file M4A, hearing is an option!

  What I want to know from the Adobe developers is, why is this update option missing in the menu 'Open with' first and will it be fixed for the hearing?

  We record every extension we can open.  Many of the extensions that we support are "discovered" during the launch at various libraries installed and plug-ins, we wonder what they take over.  For example of formats supported by QuickTime may change with different QuickTime components install you, and the formats supported by AudioToolbox can change with versions of Mac OS X.

  The extensions that we even do not match in the dialog below.

  

  That being said, we can by adding *.m4a to our default plist.

  Hi DrKathy1950,
   

  Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following windows Help article.

  Back up the registry

  Follow these steps and check if it helps to fix the problem:
   
  a. open the Registry Editor (start > run > regedit) and navigate to:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer
  (b) in the right side of the screen double click on "NoFileAssociate".
  c. change the value of "NoFileAssociate" from 1 to 0.
  d. now go to:
  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer
  e. Repeat steps 2 and 3.
  f. close "regedit" and restart your machine.
   
  If the procedure above does not work for you (or if you already have "NoFileAssociate" of values such as 0), restart in safe mode and change a file type to open it with a program by default (or right-click and select 'Open with' for this type of file and check whether or not the box is still greyed out) and click OK. The next reboot to fix the problem.

• I don't have any option 'Open with' for downloads

  I click on a file in a Web site to open it, but the box pop up no not the option "open with...". ", only the save option. The file type is a text document with the extension ".prg" associated with in my Windows Folder Options to open with Wordpad. Breast of Firefox Tools/Options/Applications, this file type does not appear, so I can't change it. I've read elsewhere where it is blamed on the MIME type in the HTML header, but Microsoft Internet Explorer gets it right every time, only Firefox does not recognize the file type.

  "Either way, the same site has files with the extension".chg "I open it with Notepad. Firefox offers the 'Open with' option to these files with Notepad as the defauld, but the "always open with" is grayed out. Not that I care, as the default is what I want, but...

  Firefox goes by MIME type, not the type of file, like IE does.

• Restore the option Save as / open with window...

  When you save a file of the interwebs, I used to give the open with option / Save as with a box to check to "do it every time. I clicked accidentally box when recording as it does so now present every time. I'm sure it's pretty simple and feel really stupid asking this sort of thing is usually pretty easy but I now can't return option, I am now default to "save under" every time. Is there something simple I'm dominant?

  Perhaps, you can resolve this problem by modifying the directive/action to the default for the file required special tab in the option menu (sorry, I don't have any English version of Firefox and it cannot name exactly, but it must be something like 'Applications', a tab close 'Private life', the 4th tab in the window 'Options' (MB 'Préférences').

• Cannot start programs - OPEN WITH missing function

  A few days ago, I tried to download and install a chess in Chessbase engine, a database utility. I did not. I remember at one point a flashing horizontal line in the upper left corner of a window black arise at a time, so that illuminates what could have transpired. Basically, I tried to get out without making any damage, but it was not to be the case. Immediately after that, I noticed that many programs Office now had ChessBase icons instead of those who were there previously. In addition, whenever I would try to run any program, including Firefox, Word, etc. it would immediately launch the basic chess program. I did some reading, tinkered around (oops) and restored the original icons for the desktop, but not their original function.

  I am more able to launch ANY program installed (MS WORD 97, for example) by using the OPEN WITH option, that has completely disappeared. I am not able to access the recovery files via the control panel because when I select "Open system restore", the error message in the recovery area States that "System Restore could not be opened."

  When I followed the trail into a .exe file (for MS Word, for example), I can't open it. I tried following some tips on a couple of occasions involving typing in commands in the search box (for example, regedit.exe) but never, it opens the file automatically, or makes a double click. Needless to say (but I say that! LOL) right-click to access the OPEN WITH feature is never an option, because it no longer exists in the menu!

  I use a method 'diverted' to access the internet (start-> all programs-> CCleaner (folder)-> CCleaner Homepage. This puts me in the Firefox browser online where I can ask for help. Help! (LOL)

  Try to start the restoration of the system of the box executer run from the start menu, type rstrui.exe in the box.  If it does not try to run it from a safe secure with command prompt with the same control rstrui.exe.
