Problem with opening programs of text and photos after the upgrade of computer for Windows 8

Original title: Photos open in Notepad

Hello

Laptop with win 8.

Recently upgraded XP to win8 with purchased MS DVD.

All text programs open graphics (pictures) in Irfanview & if I send them WORD show as hieroglyphics jeeperish.

And all the photos to open Notepad in hieroglyphs jeeperish but if I open them with "Sendto" Irfanview or MS photo editor pictures appear.

Seems the association went haywire. How can I fix this please?

8 win in my PC is not that.      .. thanx... .Nick

Hi Nick,

Please contact Microsoft Community. I understand that you have a problem with opening the programs of text and pictures after the computer upgrade to Windows 8. I appreciate your efforts to solve this problem, I'll probably help you solve this problem.

This problem could occur if the default applications are not set correctly.

I suggest you read the article that will help define the default applications that Windows automatically uses when you open a particular type of file, such as a song, film, photo or Web page.

Choose the apps Windows uses by default
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/choose-Programs-Windows-uses-default

Hope this information helps. Reply to the post with an up-to-date report of the issue so that we can help you further.

  • Could not find photos after the upgrade to Windows 7

    Bridge worked very well under Vista, but after the upgrade to Windows 7, I can't find one of my photos with bridge files.  Photoshop CS4 find them OK and made Lightroom, but for some reason Bridge does not list the sub folders.  If I click on libraries, he says "no file".  It does not list the pictures or my pictures.  I'm totally stumped.

    AlAugustine wrote:

    I tried all combinations of ctrl-click, click and ctrl, etc, I can think of but nothing reveals the reset box.  When I double click on the desktop icon, it loads almost instantly leaving no time to press ctrl before loading.

    One thing I did not mention, is that you must check that the bridge is already done in the background.  Open the Task Manager and click the processes tab and see if bridge.exe is listed.  If program so quit smoking.

    If you have the possibility of automatically loading at startup deck, I recommend that deactivate you in the Advanced preferences file.  It causes more problems than it solves.

  • CalendarAgent close unexpectedly and more after the upgrade to 10.11.5

    After the upgrade to 10.11.5, I get popup after popup stating "CalendarAgent quit unexpectedly" (forgive the change of fonts copy paste)

    He's going to stay here until I have click and then within 10 seconds, it will return. After reboot, after forcing reboots, nothing I've tried so far solves the problem.

    Please launch the Console application in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Step 1

    For this step, the title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select

    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

    in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

    List of newspapers seen ▹ display

    in the menu at the top of the screen bar.

    In the upper right corner of the Console window, there is a search box to filter. Enter the name of the application crashed or process. For example, if Safari has crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes).

    Each message in the journal begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages since the time of the last fall, as appropriate. Copy to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command + V.

    The journal contains a large amount of information, almost everything that is not relevant to solve a particular problem. When you post a journal excerpt, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

    Please don't dump blindly thousands of lines in the journal in this discussion.

    Please do not post screenshots of log messages - text poster.

    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

    Step 2

    In the Console window, clear the search box, and then select

    DIAGNOSIS AND diagnostic USE information reports ▹ user

    (not diagnose them and use Messages) in the list of logs on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points downwards. You will see a list of reports of incidents. The name of each report begins with the name of the process and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report on the process in question. The content of the report is displayed at right. Allows you to copy and paste to validate all of the content, text, not a screenshot.

    I know that the report is long, perhaps several hundred lines. Please report all this anyway. If the report is only a few lines, make sure that you have disabled the search box.

    If you don't see any report, but you know, he had an accident, you have chosen diagnostic and using the list of Log Messages. INFORMATION on the USE of DIAGNOSTIC AND choose instead.

    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you change the UUID ' anonymous, ' a long string of letters, numbers and dashes in the header of the report, if it is present (it cannot be). "

    Please do not post other types of diagnostic report - they are very long and rarely useful.

    When you post the journal excerpt or the accident report, you might see an error message on the web page: "you have included content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the forum software. Thanks for posting the text on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

    Hello-

    You install these distributions on a non-English system?  If so, the first thing to try is the workaround solution listed on this known issue.

    The known problem lists only the Italian OSs because inconvenient BONE, but in fact, it can happen on of many different non - English OSs. I will update the text accordingly the next time I update the list of known issues.

  • After the upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 games installed in my laptop (Chainz, Cubis and Bejeweled, etc.) have bars on each side when displayed in full screen.

    I have a laptop Acer Aspire with a screen 16:9 wide (15.6 "), it has the latest graphic drivers ATI and all operating system updates.  After the upgrade to W7 (free upgrade with the purchase of the laptop) everything works wonderfully except all the games installed now not displayed in full screen, I get black bars on both sides, they used for Vista, but not with W7.

    I already tried different settings in the games options, administrator, resolutions screen different, being run in maximized 'Vista' and 'Run' mode of the file properties dialog box shortcut and .exe.  This happened without any security program installed that is not a factor.

    I am at a loss.

    This is to maintain the ratio l / h. It is how the images stretch. ATI no longer has the opportunity to play with the proportions for the sort of stuck like that unless you can find in your version of ATI Catalyst. It is in fact full screen as opposed to windowed mode, but it does not cover the entire screen.

    You can try different resolutions within the application to see if it will actually make your apps full screen to use the entire screen. That's all, remains to be done. I don't know why ATI has decided to exclude this option because some people hate the black bars or hate the stretched images.

  • When and what can expect to happen to my computer after the end of support for windows XP?

    What is Pageheap?

    The answer to your direct question, when you think that say you, is a Google search away.

    -It is not supported to Microsoft for an operating system you probably have to worry.

    It is your own ability to stay static, I want a computer faster, better equipment, a new printer, scanner, camera, etc.

    The manufacturer of the software or hardware that you use every day will probably abandon Windows XP well before the April 2014 date when Microsoft stops by releasing the same critical patches for Windows XP.

    Their new printers will have only Windows Vista drivers, maybe just Windows 7.

    Their new scanners, cameras, etc. will be the same.

    I don't see the major software companies (AutoDesk, Apple, Adobe, etc.) continues to produce products that would work on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 and what comes next in 2014.

    Everyone always loves to find a single entity to blame for their reluctance to change with technology - but usually it's just the changing world overall - not a single instance of it.

    Having said that - there are many people who still use Windows 98 twelve down on the line.

    They can't see certain things on certain web pages, cannot use certain devices, they might be able to pick up at their local drug/warehouse, even store and using the latest versions of major software packages are probably a lost - cause but they do very well in their microcosm.

    So - it mainly depends on you and your ability to do not change.

  • Problem of PC keyboard laptop Compaq Presario CQ60-224NR after the upgrade from Vista to Windows 7

    I have recently upgraded the OS on my laptop PC Compaq Presario CQ60 224NR Vista Service Pack 2 to Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit Service Pack 1.  I updated the drivers before upgrading and checked for the latest drivers after upgrade also.  After the upgrade, the keyboard of the laptop works only partially when I use a web browser.  This includes IE and Firefox.  Above the QWERTY keys do not work correctly.  If I press one of these keys or SHIFT and one of these keys, the last character, symbol, or space I typed before is repeated instead.  Y at - it a fix for this problem?

    Well, I searched for several hours and found a solution, at least for me I am a customer of Comcast and I installed constant guard.  There is a key logger that is included in the package that it causes the problem.  I uninstalled GuardedID and my problem disappeared.  I hope it works for you.

  • Problems with the screen resolution, Cloud based software and Photoshop after the last round of updates Windows 8.1.

    Original title: screen resolution problems.

    Since the last series of Windows 8.1 update the resolution of my monitors has been changed for the worse. I use an AOC 2367 M (resolution 1920 x 1080) as my first monitor and a 42 inch Sony Bravia (resolution 1920 x 1080) as my 2nd monitor. The changes are more noticeable on the Sony Bravia and any adjustment I make to the resolution only make worse it.

    I also have problems with some software clouds as I load using citrix and when I try and navigate once opened software, I can't because the pointer selects a point about 50 mm on the side of the where he is hovering. In fact it is very difficult to open and close as anything and I resorted to the laptop to get concrete results.

    Photoshop now also comes up with a message when I open it up to inform me that the monitor profile seems to be defective.

    Any suggestions would be helpful as I thought initially an another upgrade must follow to correct the ills of windows 8, but appears not to have happened.

    Hi Joseph,.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to download and install all Windows updates available including optional updates. You can also install the latest device drivers for all devices including display drivers and monitor drivers on the manufacturer's Web site.

    Method 2:
    Adobe Photoshop CC version 14 is compatible with Windows 8.1. See Windows Compatibility Center for more information. To solve the problem with Photoshop CC, I suggest you try the procedure described in the article and see if it helps.
