Richard,

Take a look at http://www.acrobatfaq.com/repairext.htm .  You don't say
which Win OS you're using (the dialogs used vary a little).  You say you
don't have a PDF file type listed - so you are probably on Win 9x.  The
error you get when trying to make a PDF association is consistent with the
incorrect PDF opening you experience.

Open the 'File types' dialog and scroll down the list looking for
Photoshop-style icons in the left column.  Highlight each one you see and
read the info in the grey section at the bottom of the dialog - it will show
the icon, and associated extension.  Worst case, grab a coffee, highlight
entry one on the list and use the down arrow key to read through all the
registered extensions (lots!) until you find PDF - which will be showing a
Photoshop file icon.  Now use the instructions at the URL above to repair
the extension association.

I have acrobat 4.0 and recently upgraded photoshop to 6.0. Photoshop is now
opening pdf files by default and I want to go back to acrobat as the default
reader. When I tried to edit the file associations in windows I couldn't
find a pdf type. When I tried to create a new pdf type I was told pdf was
already in use by photoshop.
