I recently had to reformat my hard-drive, and now I am having a problem getting files to open by dragging a file (.jpg, .png etc.) onto the Photoshop Icon on my dock. Normally this would open the document in Photoshop - instead, nothing happens. I assume I need to turn a preference or something on...
Please help...

Sounds like your using a MAC?
Does photshop say anything while trying to open the file?

You might want to try changing all your preferences to default.

That might change it back to normal so what your trying to do works. Hope that helps

Or perhaps you lost something in your adobe file? Try uninstalling CS2 and re-install it. Good luck!

Well - none of those worked. Perhaps its a setting on my machine itself?
