ok, this worked, i used embedded option now.

but half and full size dont work, why? For new users this is a lot trouble to go through maybe u should change default option to option one?

One more problem, when a double click a picture, to open it, i have wrong colours again :-(

I think it might be due to the new raw standard of Canon 550d.... I needed to update camera raw as well for photoshop.

I just found out it works with option one: embedded (at least for preview)

but with option 2: half size and 3) full size (sorry im using german version and dont know th eenglish expression) i get the pinkish colour, where there should be white colour. (with preview)

Opening the picture itself, not in browser view, again doesnt work as it displays the full size cr2 file.

ok, right there is a problem. FastStone has the same problem if you don't use embedded jpeg
