stunsworth Posted July 2, 2007 Share #1 Posted July 2, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) My MacBook/CS3 has been behaving a bit strangely recently. A bit of background. I run all my M8 files though the DNG convertor and then catalogue them using iVIew Media Pro - actually I'm currently using the Miscrosoft replacement. Occasionally when I right click on an image and select 'Open with CS3', or indeed 'Open with default' the image opens in CS3 directly (as if it was a Tiff or PSD file) instead of in the RAW convertor. Any idea why? Has anyone else had this problem? I find that if I shut down CS3 and then repeat the above, CS3 reloads and the file opens correctly in the RAW convertor. I don't know if it's relevant but I tend to have CS3 open all the time, so perhaps it's something that occurs when CS3 has been open for more that 24 hours. Any sugestions would be appreciated.

Guest WPalank Posted July 2, 2007 Share #3 Posted July 2, 2007 Steve, I had a similar problem going from Bridge and it effects my Canon RAW files as well. The first time I double click on an image in Bridge, I get the Camera RAW dialogue. The second time it goes directly into CS3. At least from Bridge I can go back and do a Menu drop to "Open in Camera RAW." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunsworth Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share #4 Posted July 3, 2007 Hi Andy, I'm opening the files in CS3, so they should open in ACR, but as I say sometimes they open directly in CS3 bypassing the ACR stage. Very strange. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael-IIIf Posted July 3, 2007 Share #5 Posted July 3, 2007 Steve, Try quitting PhotoShop, then remove the file ~/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.Photoshop.plist and relaunch PhotoShop. It sounds like PS has forgotten a preference setting. PS will automatically build a new .plist file the next time it is run. Keep the old .plist file to one side just in case.
