The title pretty much says it all. I save as .pds or .bmp, but when I go back to open the doc., the icon is Quicktime. This has happened also when I've saved bunches of images to a CD. Are they really Quicktimes?

Are you using Mac or Win? If you are on a Mac try rebuilding the desktop. Restart while holding down command and option until you see the message asking if you want to rebuild the desktop. Tell it yes. This usually helps when icons start taking on an appearance that they are not supposed to. If you are on Win, I have no idea. A Win user will have to help. Either way, the files you saved are most likely not Quicktime. If you save as a psd than is is a psd, it does not spontainiously become QT but someimes icons do get screwed up.

I'm using Windows 98SE, & when my icons start acting up, such as your describing, I use a program called "Tweak UI" for repairing them. Hope that'll help'ya some . . . Mark.

OK...I'm a Mac fan, but this is on Windows XP. kruzr: where can I find "Tweak UI"? THanks for the help.

Microsoft PowerToys for Windows XP You can't use the same version of Tweak UI on WinXP as on Win98.

If you're on Windows, right click the file in windows explorer, click open with, and in that window select the program you want as the default program to open tne file, then click always open files of this type with.
