Hi all,

I find that XP saves all of my images from the web as "jpeg"

Adobe photoshop doesn't recognize them as "jpeg"

If I go in and maually rename each file, (which take forever when your dealing with free clip art, hundreds) to "jpg"
then Abode will see them.

Is there anyway to get XP to save them as "jpg" ?
 
This solution was provided before by John Inzer. If you are comfortable
editing your registry:

".jpg extension may be incorrect in registry"

Go to...Start / Run...

Type in "regedit" (without the quotes)...OK.

In your registry editor...drill down to:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\image/jpeg

What is entered at "Extension"? (should be: .jpg)
(don't change anything...just observe)

Also you might check:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\image/pjpeg

What is entered at "Extension"? (should be: .jpg)

If the *Extensions* are incorrect, changing them to .jpg
should solve your problem.

To make the change...

Left click "Extension" to select it.

With "Extension" selected...go to...Edit / Modify...

Replace the text in the "Value data" field with
".jpg" (without the quotes)...OK.

Close the registry editor....File / Exit.
