Having installed J River Media Center 17 (Beta) and sent $50 to Matt Ashland happily enough for the privilege, I have been very satisfied with its audio performance . . . and also its performance in displaying my photos. But J River seems to have "colonized" my computer in some fashion! Now when I try to use Adobe Bridge to open .jpg files in Adobe Photoshop CS2, the files insist on opening in JRiver Media Center instead (as if all I wanted to do with them is view them)! I can no longer use Bridge to sort and load the files I wish to edit in Photoshop. How did this happen? Can I turn J River off somehow when I am working in Photoshop?
A related issue: I use Outlook Web Access in IE8 for email. But now with J River 17 installed, I can no longer open .jpg files attached to my emails----or better, I can't open them quickly as once I did. I have to save the attached file to my harddisk first (then in an extra step open them in J River). An attached .pdf file opens immediately in Adobe Reader; an attached .docx file opens immediately in MS Word. So why won't J River open .jpg files from attachments in the same quick and celerous fashion?
(I'm working in Win XP Pro, Service Pack III, on a Dell Latitude notebook PC.)
