"Open With" EPS Photoshop and Illustrator

I have updated to 10.6.5 and having issues opening EPS files in Illustrator and Photoshop. It will only open them in one, whereas before it would choose the appropriate program it was created in.

I go to "get info" and select the appropriate program and "change all". Then it opens ALL eps files in that one program. I can't get it to open vector EPS files in Illustrator and raster EPS files in Photoshop.

Please help! "Editing Original" from InDesign and Quark is driving me insane!!

2.8 Quad-Core Intel Xeon, Mac OS X (10.6.5)

Snow Leopard only allows one app to open generic EPS files, you can't split them. If you want to report this issue to Apple's engineering, send a bug report or an enhancement request via its Bug Reporter system. To do this, join the Mac Developer Program—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report or enhancement request. The nice thing with this procedure is that you get a response and a follow-up number; thus, starting a dialog with engineering.
