All the recent discussions here about the virtues of Photoshop CC have finally convinced me that this is the way to go. I bit the bullet, signed up and downloaded it last night. Prior to doing that I was using PS and Bridge CS6.

My intention is to use only PS CC and Bridge CC from now on. But I do not wish to remove PS and Bridge CS6 from my computer.

When I try to open a photo previously processed in PS CS6 from Bridge CC it opens PS CS6 instead of just opening the photo in PS CC, as I would like. If I use the Bridge CC command “Open With” I see both PS CC and PS CS6 available, but PS CS6 is marked as default. That explains why the program is working as it is. But I can’t figure out how to change the default program. When I open Bridge CC preferences I do not see an option to set PS CC as the default.

Any suggestions on how to fix this? I did a search but did not find the answer. I know there are some real PS gurus here that might be able to help. Thanks.

Ah, I should have mentioned I am using a Mac. Thanks though.

I don't know if this applies to Bridge, but I called Adobe because I have Lightroom 5 and wanted to make sure that if I signed up for the Lr Photoshop CC and then a year down the road, decided to quit, I wouldn't loose my current 5.5 that I had purchased and would be able to continue to use it. I was informed and assured by Adobe, that since I own it, I would continue to be able to use it even if I quit using CC. I would assume, and I always get in trouble when I do this, that this would also apply to all other Adobe products as well.

In Bridge CC click Edit>Preferences. Click File Associations. Set the files you want open with CC to default to Photoshop CC. They will now open in CC.
