Opening .jpeg files in CS5

When I try to open a .JPEG file in CS5 the image opens ok but it is made up of lots of "small squares & lines" and is almost unrecognisable. Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can get around this issue? I've included an example below. Thanks for any help......

That could be due to corrupted files, or a problem with your video card driver.
Try turning off OpenGL drawing in preferences, close the file and open it again.
If the corruption is still showing, then the problem is in the file.
If the corruption went awa, you have a bug in your display driver -- updating it may solve the problem, or you may need to contact the maker of the card.  But leaving OpenGL drawing off will avoid the problem for the time being.

  • Opening jpeg files in CS5.1 extended

    I have installed (and re-installed) CS5.1 extended. I can open Raw files but when I try to open a jpeg it opens a dialogue box labelled Camera raw 6.3 jpeg with the image in it . When I then try to open the file from there into the main CS5 work area I just get a corrupted image.  I previously had the education version installed pending verification which worked perfectly.

    In photoshop got to Edit>Preferences>Camera Raw (Photoshop>Preferences on a mac) and select disable jpeg and tiff support so the jpegs and tiffs open normally into photoshop.
    If the files still look corrupted in photoshop, you might need to update the drivers for your video card from the card makers site not microsoft.
    As an experiment if opening the jpegs without camera raw still results in corrupt looking files, you can go to Edit>Preferences>Performance and uncheck
    Enable OpenGL drawing and see if that makes a difference, but that's not a fix and you still might need to update your video card drivers.

  • Lightroom won't open TIFF or JPEG files to CS5

    Recently upgraded to a new iMac. This morning when I tried to open a TIFF file from Lightroom 3.4.1 into Photoshop CS5 I got a message saying: Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file at /Volumes/Drobo1/Photos/2011/02-14-2011 Yellowstone/Yellowstone-0641-Edit.tif for editing.
    It will not be opened.
    The only way Lightroom will open a TIFF or JPEG image to CS5 is if I tell it to open a copy of the image with Lightroom Adjustments. If I say I want to edit the original or a copy, it won't do it.
    If I go into CS5 and open the TIFF there, it works fine, so the problem doesn't seem to be with CS5.
    Lightroom WILL open RAW files into CS5 without any error message.
    I'm using Snow Leopard 10.6.8, which was upgraded yesterday and am wondering if that's the problem since I could open TIFFs on the new computer before.
    Phil

    Do you have full permissions to the DROBO folder the files are in?  I'm a Windows person so I can't tell you how to check this, but upgrading a OS and then things not working might be related to permissions where the files were created with a profile on the previous OS.

  • Can not open JPEG files and can not create JPEG files from other software

    Can not open JPEG files and can not create JPEG files from other software (For example from Solidworks).
    When I try to right click on a JPEG, a notice window appears written: "Windows Explorer has stopped working - Windows is
    checking for a solution to the problem" and then the notice box disapears, the desktop appears and I can continue working.
    From the other side - If I try to save as JPEG a screen of Solidworks (like a view of a part) the Solidworks falls but the JPEG
    is created (I can see its name in the directory I created it).
    I can open the JPEGS with the Paint software if I want but not with the Windows Photo Viewer.
    I have the feeling that the Windows Photo Viewer disapeared from my computer - just a feeling.
    I will appreciate your assistance.
    Avi T. 2014

    Hi,
    Did Windows Photo Viewer option appear when you right click the JPEG file and select open with?
    I would like suggest you use Clean Boot to troubleshoot if there is third-party software conflict:

  • Unable to open JPEG files

    Hi everyone! Im a new user of MAC (=)) May I ask, how come I can't open jpeg files from my external drive? But when I receive a JPEG file via email, i can open it.
    Help..... Thank you!

    I have no idea, and unless you can give us some details, no one else will either.
    How are you trying to open these files? With what app? Do you get any error messages of any kind?
    Anything else you think that might help us to know would be appreciated.
    Regards

  • Can't open Jpeg files in email

    I just purchased a Samsung Continum.  I love it but I am unable to open jpeg files in my emails.  Am I missing something?

    Just keep in mind, downloading has limitations. The maximum file size for picture / videos/attachments can vary from device to device. The file size limitation is based on the megapixels of the camera on the device. The maximum file size that can be sent from an email to a device is 3 MB. When any message over 350 KB is sent to the device, the file is reduced in size to be under 350 KB prior to delivery. If a device sends a 500 KB file to a device with a lower file size limit the file will be reduced to a file size acceptable by the receiving device.. A message that exceeds the other carrier's limits will be rejected and not reach the intended recipient. 
    Listed below are steps to download attachments
    From a home screen, select Applications.

    No, he said that DW gives him an error message: "Can't open

    won't allow him to insert the file.

  • Safari won't open jpeg files

    Safari 6.0.5 does not open jpeg files. Is there a preference I need to change? Or something like that?

    I can't say that I know whether that's normal behavior for Safari, but it's easy enough to find out.
    Boot into Recovery mode. From the OS X Utilities screen, select Get Help Online. A clean copy of Safari will launch. No plugins, such as Flash, will be available. While in Recovery, you'll have no access to your saved bookmarks or passwords, so make a note of those before you begin, if they're needed for the test.
    Test. After testing, reboot as usual and post the results.

  • Cannot open JPEG files in PE9

    Cannot open JPEG files in PE9 "because an unknown or invalid JPEG marker type is found"

    it wants
    to default into a JPEG file and there is a JPEG marker on the end of the
    saved file even when I select Photoshop format.
    I would really like to see a screenshot of the save as window, since any time you have a layered file PSE fights you every step of the way and makes you save as a copy when you choose jpeg as the format.

  • Setting Photoshop CC 2014 as my "Default Program" to open JPEG files in Windows 7

    I just installed Photoshop CC 2014 on my Windows 7 computer. I had set Photoshop as my "Default Program" to open up JPEG files. Now whenever I double-click a JPEG file, Photoshop CC will launch instead of Photoshop CC 2014. I have noticed that the executable files for all versions of Photoshop are "Photoshop.exe" (no wonder Windows gets confused). If I changed the name of the executable file for Photoshop CC 2014 to something like "Photoshop2014.exe" then Windows will let me choose the program as my "Default Program" to open up a JPEG, however this makes it impossible for me to open up files in Lightroom. Lightroom will default back to Photoshop CC.
    I have changed the name of the executable file for Photoshop CC 2014 back to "Photoshop.exe" and renamed all the executable files for my legacy versions of Photoshop. This still does not work.
    Do I need to make some types of change in the registry?

    This is from the post at this site: Re: Adobe CS6 file associations are all messed up
    Just change the directory to the correct EXE for cc 2014 and you should be good.
    Correct Answerby Curt Y on Jun 5, 2012 7:08 PM
    Here is a registy fix for Win7 machines to the file association problem.
    This from TinusHDCA user:
    I installed Photoshop CS6, then found CS5 was still there. I thought, hey, I don't need CS5 anymore, so I uninstalled CS5. then I found out that Photoshop was no longer available in 'Open with' when right-clicking an image...
    So I went into the Registry, HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\Photoshop.exe\shell\open\command, and changed the (Default) from "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1" to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1" (so changed CS5 to CS6) - and now I see 'Adobe Photoshop CS6' in my 'Open with' list when right-clicking an image...

  • Bridge opens JPEG files in Windows Photo Viewer not Photoshop

    How do I tell Bridge to open my JPEG files in Photoshop and not Windows Photo Viewer? I see that Windows Photo Viewer is selected as the default in my preferences and I do not see Photoshop as an option. I do see COM Surrogate 6.1. I just upgraded from CS5 to CS6 yesterday and I am just noticing this issue. I never dealth with this problem with CS5. Any suggestions? Thank you all for the help.

    If you deleted CS5 after installing CS6 you are one of the unfortunate that also fouled up the file associations. 
    The safest way to restore function is to uninstall CS6, run the Adobe script cleaner and reinstall.
    There is a registry fix that I include as an option, but on vacation so can not find that references.
    Some have had succes with running CCleaner, but registry cleaners can cause some problems of their own if the delete "good files".

  • Can't open CR2 files in CS5, updates fail

    I have some CR2 files I need to edit.  I have CS5.  When I try opening the files I get the following message "Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw.  Please visit the Camera Raw help documentation for additional information." 
    After looking online for some time, I read that updating my adobe applications should allow me to open these CR2 files.
    I go to the adobe application manager and it lists I need updates for bridge cs5, photoshop cs5, and photoshop camera raw.  I click the update button, watch the progress bar go from 0-100% in about a minute as if everything is just peachy, and the this pops up-
    "the following updates were unable to install.  If you wish to install these updates, please fix the problems below and retry:
    Adobe bridge cs5 4.0.5 update, there was an error downloading this update.  Please quit and try again later.
    Photoshop Camera Raw 6.7 Update
    There was an error downloading this update.  Please quit and try again later."
    I've "tried again later" several times over the last month, and get the same thing each time.
    When I click the "contact customer support" link it takes me to a page that says-
    Error "This serial number is not for a qualifying product..." when installing an upgrade or upsell
    All I want to do is edit these files.  I am happy with CS5, and not interested in paying a monthly fee to upgrade, just so I can open these files.  Help Please?!

    I had this issue today trying to reinstall CS5 on a new laptop.   After many hours and trying to get chat support, i read a forum post that suggested installing each update manually from the adobe website.  I tried and it was successful for me........
    Product updates
    good luck!

  • Cannot open JPEG files in Camera Raw from Bridge

    I am using Adobe Web Premium CS3 with Windows Vista. In Bridge under File, the "Open in Camera Raw" is grayed out. In preferences, I checked "Double-Click Edits Camera Raw Settings in Bridge" and when I double-click a JPEG file it still opens in Photoshop CS3. I've downloaded and installed the latest Camera Raw plugin (Camera Raw.8bi dated 3/27/2008) into Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS3/File Formats. Nothing seems to work.

    I am experiencing the same problem under XP SP2. It is intermittent. Everything will be OK and then the next time I open the folder Camera Raw is not available.
    I just did a little experiment. I created a sub-folder in the folder that would not produce Cam Raw and moved a jpg to it. When I right clicked it in the new folder, Cam Raw was there as it should be. I moved the jpg back to the original folder that had the problem and Cam Raw opened in that folder too, but not on any of the other jpg's in that folder.
    I moved all of the jpg's to this sub folder and back and Cam Raw was there on all the jpg's.
    There is without a doubt some real flakies in Bridge. I also have workspaces saved that suddenly are not saved any more.
    Hope this helps out your problem Donald. Oh, I am using web premium CS3 also

  • Cannot open indd file in CS5.5? "Please upgrade your plugins to the latest version or upgrade..."

    I refer to a similar forum post here - http://forums.adobe.com/message/4081971 - which outlines a similar problem with opening a file.
    The difference is the file I can no longer open was created using Adobe indd CS5.5 and I am opening it with Adobe indd CS5.5. I have never had this issue previously. The only change is to a new OS on Mac - Version 10.8.2. Error message says "Cannot open "File name" please upgrade your plugins to the latest version or update to the latest version of Adobe" - I know there is CS6 but why should I now need to upgrade suddenly?
    Can anyone help here? I can forward a link to the file in question if needs be.

    @Catie – did you verify, if your InDesign file is saved in version CS5.5?
    You could do so by using a ExtendScript (Adobe's version of JavaScript) written by Jongware.

    If the problem is due to a corruption of plug-in version information, I fear you have no chance other than:
    1. Update CS5.5 to the latest bug-fix version => 7.5.3
    2. Download a trial version of InDesign CS6, open and export the file to IDML and re-open it in InDesign CS5.5 (though this might not work for a corrupted file)
    3. Try to open the file on a different machine

    without know what camera you're using, I would say that you need to download the Adobe DNG converter 8.8 is the current one. That will create dng files that can be opened in CS5.
