Photoshop.exe and files not opening

Hi everyone.
I am having a few problems with photoshop
Firstly some files I have edited and then saved as jpgs will not reopen in photoshop or any other program.
This is the error I get when trying to open them in windows
'Windows viewer can't open this picture because either Photo Viewer doesn't support this file format, or you don't have the latest updates to Photo Viewer'
If I try and open it in photoshop I get this error message
'Could not complete your request because JPEG marker segment length is too short (the file may be truncated or incomplete)'
(I think that should be 'to' not 'too' haha)
I also get an error message when I close photoshop, it's says
XML parsing error; 'not well formed (invalid token)' at line 1
Then when ever I come to shut my PC down it says it has to force shutdown because of photoshop.exe altough photoshop is closed
Any help would be much appreciated as I have wasted a lot of time editing photos, I don't want to re edit anything else until it's sorted.
Thanks for your time

Hi Valeria,
My first inclination was to recommend just reinstalling, but since you said you did a new install of CS6 and that isn't working either I'm not sure if that would help. The user preferences was also a great thing to try.
These might be some other general suggestions for good next steps:
- Try launching with right-click Run as Administrator
- Create a new administrative account, log out of your current one, and attempt launching from there
- See if you get the same behavior if launching while in a Selective Startup
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/run-selective-startup-system-configuration#1TC= windows-7
- Uninstall any changes you made since it stopped working, you should be able to uninstall the Windows update from within Programs and Features, uninstall the Intuos + Spyderpro temporarily to rule them out
Hope that helps,
- Dave

  • Software Updates Missing and File Not opening in Final Cut Pro

    Hi Experts,
    I am having trouble with Final Cut Pro. Here goes:-
    I tried to load up a FCP file called "Overview" in Lesson One of the Apple Pro Training Series book called "Color". The file would not open and I got the following message alert in FCP:
    "File's format is too new for this version of the application".
    I am running FCP 6.0.1 and so went to check for software updates. I could not find any listed for FCP. I did a quick internet search to make sure and found there were indeed updates to 6.0.1.
    So I guess I have 2 problems:
    1. Why won't a file from a book that was published before I bought FCP work on my app?
    2. Why can't I see updates for FCP in the Software Update application?
    I am mega stuck with this. I have read of similar problems to mine on the internet but have found no solution. I hope that you will be able to help me out.
    Thank you all,
    Bob

    Hi Nick!
    Thanks for your reply. I feel kinda silly now but I have been continuously checking Software Update for 24hrs and I just got a new addition to the list which was called "Pro Applications Update 2008-05".
    Seeing something new, I installed it and it upgraded my Final Cut Applications including FCP to version 6.0.5.
    The file then opened.
    I am truly sorry to have taken your time up. As when I posted last time Nick, you were very prompt and helpful.
    All the best,
    This problem is solved for me and I hope all the other people having this problem find this update as luckily as I just did.

  • Photoshop CS5 and CS6 not opening after Windows 7 update

    Hi there!
    I have my Mac on repair so I have to use Photoshop on a very old Windows 7 laptop of mine (the first PS licence I bought was for PS CS4 Win then extended to CS5 during grace period)
    It always worked fine (slow but fine ) since today. I was updating a couple of softwares (Intuos + Spyderpro) and I have been asked to restart my computer to make the updates effective. I've noticed that Windows during the restart was updating itself as well and I said "well, ok!" and let it go. But once my computer had restarted I couldn't open PS CS5 anymore. Desperate I went to the Adobe trial pages and downloaded CS6 but it doesn't work as well. I tried to repair some log errors via CC cleaner and delete PS preferences from its folder but no luck. I don't know what else to do. Bridge works fine. I don't understand what happened and how to solve it.

  • Saving a Photoshop CC project from a Mac (in .PSD format) to a thumb drive and trying to transfer it to a Dell laptop with Photoshop CS6.  Will not open...Error message: could not complete your request because it is not a valid photoshop document.

    Saving a Photoshop CC project from a Mac (in .PSD format) to a thumb drive and trying to transfer it to a Dell laptop with Photoshop CS6.  Will not open...Error message: could not complete your request because it is not a valid photoshop document.

    The file was corrupted somewhere along the way (assuming it was still readable on the Macintosh).
    The platforms don't matter, but you still need file transfer that doesn't corrupt files...

    Wanting to use Photoshop CS6 to open images directly from iPhoto 11.
    Using OSX10.8.2 and iPhoto 11.  Just installed Photoshop CS6 and want to open
    images directly from iPhoto.    Before I installed PS I was not able to edit photos
    in iPhoto 11.  Nothing happens when I click on ‘edit‘ it is blank. 
    And now it will not work using Photoshop CS6 either.
    From Help Center I have gone to iPhoto/Preferences/ Advanced and chosen Photoshop CS6  to Edit Photos but then cannot find an 'Open' to click? Perhaps this is the problem?
    When I select a photo in iPhoto and click the Edit button - nothing happens.
    Please advise. Glenys

    This may be of help to you:
    Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done. 
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements  the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Note:  to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

  • Why are many of my files in Keynote, Pages and Numbers not opening?

    Why are many files in Keynote, Pages and Numbers not opening? I have re-downloaded the apps but with no joy!

    Strange. The photos that don't display in Aperture will still display in iPhoto but when I view the info the file doesn't show resolution information only for those problematic photos
    Files sizes are almost all jpeg. Once I reference the file in iPhoto, the master displayed resolution for the photo within finder. The photo's original file also opened in preview and photoshop.

  • Problem opening PSCS5 32 bit - Photoshop.exe Entry Point Not Found

    I am having a problem opening 32 bit version of Photoshop CS5 in Windows 7.  The 64 bit version opens fine, but when I try and open the 32 bit version, the following window opens: “Photoshop.exe – Entry Point Not Found”  X The procedure entry point_CFCreateApplicationRepositoryPath could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreFoundation.dll.  My only option in this window is an OK button.  If I click this button several times, the program eventually opens. Below is screen shot of the error window.

    Thanks Zeno and others.  Uninstalling Quicktime and then reinstalling it was the fix.
    Thanks again,

  • I upgraded iMac to Yosemite, and my Adobe CS5 products  (Photoshop, dreamweaver, etc) would not open. Multiple issues

    I upgraded iMac to Yosemite, and my Adobe CS5 products (Photoshop, dreamweaver, etc) would not open. A message popped up saying I needed to load Java SE 6.  The Apple Tech support person had me select all the Java folders and files in my library and delete the. I then downloaded Java 7. However, nothing happens when I click on the program icon. I went to reinstall the products, but the activation code was not valid (even though I got it off the Adobe site for my products with Adobe). I tried to install just one product (Illustrator) in the trial mode, but still nothing happens. How can I get my Adobe Photoshop, Dreamweaver and other programs to work?

    some (like illustrator cs5 appear to be incompatible with yosemite, at least, according to some users - http://roaringapps.com/apps:table).
    for the rest, check at the above link.
    if others have had success, your best option would be to uninstall, clean and then reinstall per Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

  • Please help! My Itunes says corrupt file and will not open (IMac 2010). I couldn't fix it by reinstalling so I moved it to trash. It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I can't delete or open to close it, what do I do

    Please help!
    My Itunes says there is a corrupt file and will not open (IMac 2010). I couldn't fix it by reinstalling ITunes so I moved ITunes to trash. It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj". I can't delete ITunes or open ITunes to close the Japanese.lproj, what do I do? Thank you for any help you can provide..

    It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj".
    Interesting. This sort of thing is more common on Windows systems. Taken at face value, one of the iTunes program files (one of the Japanese language resources) is damaged.
    I'd try running your Disk Utility over your startup disk. Does it find/repair any damage? If so can you empty your trash and reinstall your iTunes successfully now?

    Currently when I double click it creates cpgz file and does not open.  The only way to open pages doc is to manually ask to open with pages.

    Hi Karen,
    Sounds like OS X has lost the association between Pages and its files.
    Start by quitting Pages, then going to Finder.
    In Finder, locate a .pages file. Click on it (once), then press command-I (eye, not one) to Get Info.
    In the Info window that opens, expand the Open With section.
    In this section, click on the pop-up menu and choose Pages (even if Pages is already shown).
    Click the Change All button to associate all files with the .pages extension with Pages.
    Close the info window.
    Double click any .pages file to check that Pages will now launch and open the file.
    Regards,
    Barry
