  Hello.  I use Photoshop CC 2014 on a MAC with os x LION.  I also have Photoshop CS6 installed.  When I double-click on a file in Bridge CC, it always opens in CS6.  If I say 'OPEN WITH Photoshop CC 2014', or if I drag the file directly to the CC, 2014 in the Dock, it will open in CC.  Since I want to double click or hit back in the deck, I constantly have to wait that the file opens in CS6, CS6 abandonment then opens another way to get into Photoshop CC 2014.  I tried to disable CS6 by hiding, but double-clicking Bridge has nothing.  Any ideas why this happens?

• I'm trying to download Flash Player 11.4.402.278. However, when I double-click the file to install it, it does nothing? What can I do?

  I went to the Adobe site to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (11.4.402.278). The download was successful. However, when I double-clicked on the file in the download for Firefox, it did nothing. The file security warning dialog box does not appear. I don't know what is happening. Y at - there someone who can help me?

  The download location by default on Windows Vista is the record of downloads, under your user folder. You could try to close Firefox and check there to see if the Flash installation file has been downloaded... If you see it, double-click on the file. If this does not work, try again:

  After you download the file to install Flash on your computer, open the downloads window, right click on the file you downloaded and select "Open containing folder", then take it out of Firefox before running the Flash installation program that you downloaded.
