Solved: How to change file associations?
I have an iMac G-5 with Adobe Photoshop Elements loaded. After taking a photo, i resize it and make corrections, and save it as a JPEG, using Adobe. However, the next time I open it, I may want only to look at it without having to load up Adobe. I know I can right-click and choose Open with...., but I get tired of doing that. Is there some way to make Preview the dominant viewer on a file created in Photoshop?

RE: Use Preview to open all jpeg files
Yes. Right Click on a .jpeg file and choose Get Info. Then choose the 'Open With' drop down menu and select Preview. Then, every .jpeg should open by default with Preview. Hope this helps.

If you don't have a two button mouse, you can hold down the 'control' key and click the file, then choose, 'open with'. Just for our one button friends.
