    Default Double clicking won't open Photoshop document

    This just started happening; when I double click a PS document, Photoshop CS will launch but the document won't open. It also won't open when I drag the document to the PS icon in the dock. The only way I can open it is to use File; Open and navigate to the file. Anyone have this happen before?

    Happened to me. Simple fix was to reinstall Photshop. Problem fixed.

    Try apple-i on a PS doc. then put PS in the 'open with' and then click 'use this program on alle these kind of docs' (Sorry for translation-I am using a Dutch Finder)
    This could prevent a totally new install.

    You could also try to trash your PS prefs: (from Panther but I think in 10.2.8 pretty the same) User>Library>Preferences>Adobe PS settings
