After upgrade to Studio 8, missing Fireworks

Question:

After I upgraded to Macromedia Studio 8 and have both Dreamweaver 8 and Fireworks 8, when trying to create a Flash Album Generator 2, I get the following error:

"Must have Fireworks 3 to use, please download your free copy at ..."

What is going on I do have Fireworks 8 now?

Answer:

When you upgrade from MX04 to Studio 8 some of the DW settings carry over. DW still thinks that Fireworks MX is the default app for editing images. Since you upgraded that is no longer the case. Do the following:

Go To DW Preferences
Click File Types/Editors Option
For all image extensions .png,.gif,jpg map DW to your Fireworks 8 application using the "browse" button
After you've done that click "make primary"
Close DW
Restart
