1. Re: Can't change filetype association back to Acrobat 9
Phillip Jones Jun 2, 2011 1:11 PM (in response to bpylant)the change file ype association works two ways.
if you just select one file it sets asssocation for that one file.
To properly set for all files you select 5 or more PDF's make suere some of them are PDF created by Preview
Then choose Get Sumary Info. Then click on change all. then click okay when it ask if you want tp permanently Change.
If it don't work. Then adobe has introduced the bug (Feature) that MS Office has sice office2008 which overrided this system feature.
Technicall They and MS are breaking the AUI guidelines they have set out how applications a features are supposed to work, if this is the case.

Not neccesarily true. It WILL however only set the association for that particular type of PDF (say one's that were created by a certain application).

And if they were all created by the same application (say Apple Quartz for instance) you're back in the same boat.
The trick is to select a few PDF's (Absolutely no reason that it has to be 5, that's Phillips thing) created by different applications or at least be sure it's one from the application you use.

I've found less than five don't give an accurate sampling. That's the reason for 5 or more created by different Applications.
