All my .psd files are corrupt after a pc restart...

What the hell?!?! What could have caused it and is there any chance I can restore anything ... Everything on my pc seems ok but the psd files ...
"Could not complete your request because it is not a valid Photoshop document."
This is what I get
I am using Photoshop CC on Windows 7

It sounds unlikely that multiple PSD files have become corrupted. My first thought when seeing the thread title was a bad Windows FAT (File Allocation Table) but even that sounds unlikely to only affect PSD files. So I'd be looking at the common denominator, which is Photoshop. Have you tried creating a new document, and saving and reopening?
I think I'd try opening the files with another app like Irfanview, or just reinstalling Photoshop. Do you have the files backed up?

Time Machine Backup - All JEPGS & PSD files are lost

I have backed up all my photos (JPEGS & PSD Files) on my external hard drive before re-installing the operating system.
My machine is up and running again.
When I inserted my external hard drive in the USB port, a back-up was made on the time machine.
I can’t seem to find any JPEG files on my external hard drive,
the specific folders are all still there with a thumbs.db file in each folder.
Would you be able to tell me where all my JPEGS (photos) have gone?
Is there anyway I can retrieve these photos?

OK the scenario you have described does not sound good. Selecting that same external drive to be your Time Machine drive may have resulted in that drive being re-initialised meaning that you have lost whatever data was previously on it.
If you view your Time Machine drive through Finder and you only see a folder structure similar to the following image where is shows a folder named Backups.backupdb (as mine appears, though ignore the "OWC Icons & Shareware" folder as that is specific to my drive) then I am afraid that the files and folders that were previously on it would have gone.

Files get corrupted after import-export

Hi
After exporting images from HTML DB 2.0 and importing them some of the files are corrupted after import.
This has happened with one .js file and with one .pdf file.
All the other (including some PDF-s) are correct.
The "File Character Set" specified on import is correct and there are no other parameters I can change.
If I look the contents of corrupted files it seems that another file has been pasted at the end of the original file.
What could be wrong?

Hello,
Any news on this ? I have the same (reproducable) problem with a .js file.
Uploading works fine, but when I try to download it again, the contents of another file seems to have been appended at the end. The file also doesn't work when I try to include it using #WORKSPACE_IMAGES#...js

I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

Psd files are getting corrupted

Hi
I am using PSE11 on a Mac, and have experienced PSD files getting corrupted twice now. They are digital scrapbooking files, where I have started with a layered PSD file 'template' and personalised it (with lots of effort!). I save it and close it. Later I try and reopen it and it will not open. The Adobe Photoshop Elements dialog box says 'Reading Photoshop Format' but it just gets stuck - the progress bar does not move beyond 1/3. This is really bothersome as last time it happened I had no option but to start over and redo the layout. Any ideas or suggestions as to why or how this might be happening? What could I do about it? I am reluctant to reinstall PSE, as I prefer version 11, have no disc, and last time it took many calls to Adobe to be directed to a place where I could download it (they kept telling me I would HAVE to buy the latest version.
Thanks, J

A little more info about the files and just how you're saving them would help, as would info about your version of PSE. What color space are the files? Have you reset your PSE preferences?

Windows Updates causing PSD files to corrupt?

I was curious as to if anyone else has ever had an issue with Windows Updates performing (possibly the updates that came out this week for various Microsoft products) in XP causing PSD file corruption in certain files?
The situation I'm looking at is that one of our users' computer had an update, which installed yesterday. Suddenly, 2-3 PSD files (which I am able to open on my own computer) are giving an error when trying to load of "Could not complete your request because it is not a valid Photoshop document." Tried recreating the prefs folder to no avail.
The only solution that worked was performing a system restore to a previous date. However then today the computer reinstalled the update again and the files appeared to corrupt again and not open. Other PSD files are still opening fine (as well as importing via Place in Illustrator), its just these particular few that are not (they will not place in Illustrator, giving a similar error message saying it is not a valid file type).
Any ideas, or anyone else having similar symptoms?

I have a Windows 7 laptop using I tunes 64 and all my music files are
on an external disc. I rarely use I tunes and at one point moved all my files
(including the music files) from one external disc to another without
considering what affect this would have on the I tunes library. When I eventually
attempted to use I tunes, every selected a song from the library resulted in a
message stating that the file couldn't be located. After following some of the procedures
explained in this community I was able to reconnect the library back to where
the associated music files are presently stored. However, there are still 2
problems that need to be corrected. 1) Every song file now has a duplicate. One
file works and the other file will result in the same message stating that the
file couldn't be located. Before there were 4,000 songs in the library, now
there are 8,000 songs. I need to eliminate the 4,000 dead song files. 2) All
the playlists are still associated with the dead song files which makes the
playlists unusable. Can the playlists be reconnected to the usable files
without manually having to recreate them? Thanks in advance for the help.

So am I understanding correctly?
You used your iPod as a hard drive (drag and drop) instead of having iTunes install the music?
If you used drag and drop your choices are different than if you used iTunes to transfer.
Good luck!

ITunesSetup says some install files are corrupt, iPod wont be read by pc..

My ipod and itune were working fine earlier today and before, but whenever i try to update to the latest verion the install says some install files are corrupt, and now my itunes suddenly no longer reads my ipod... This is like the 20th time this ipod not being read by pc problem has occurred and it's really making me never trust apple with pcs again.

2. "I ran the system rescue cd and fsck'ed both partitions" -> Did you get any direct filesystem error message from the system?
3. What happens if you try to delete the corrupted files and restart ? Does it become corrupted too every time?
4."X sometimes won't start, I get a black screen and I need to power down by holding the power button." -> Which driver/kernel/xorg version do you use ? I've experienced such a situation with the nvidia-185.18.31 driver.
Thank you for your quick response.
1. Is it safe to delete the corrupted files in /var/log? I already deleted viminfo after it got corrupted the first time, but it happened again.
2. In the rescue cd, fsck quickly said "it's ok" without checking. Is there a way to force it to check? The man page doesn't say. The longer check I get sometimes when booting ("hasn't been checked in the last X mounts yadda yadda") shows only "fixed write time in the future" from time to time.
3. The Xorg.0.log particularly gets corrupted after the hard restart that I issue when X fails to start and a black screen locks up the pc.
4. xf86-video-ati is 6.12.2-2, kernel26 is 2.6.30.4-1. xorg-server: 1.6.3-2. The black screen issue will be (I hope) solved in the other thread I made (link in first post), but I have the suspicion that both problems are very closely related (one is the cause for the other, or some sort of vicious circle.)

Accidentally deleted iTunes, is there anyway I can download it again and have it just back up my iPod instead of clearing it of all data? All of iTunes files are still on my computer, but the actual program got deleted.

I was trying to clear space on my C drive and decided to delete programs that I didn't use or that I didn't recognize. (Bad idea, I know that now.) Anyways, accidentally deleted a program that iTunes needed to run and the computer said it would undo the uninstall and restart to fix the problem but when it restarted iTunes was gone. So my question is, after I download iTunes again, is there a way I can just backup my iPod to it's last sync (which was coincidentally right before I accidentally deleted iTunes) instead it being cleared of all its data? All of iTunes' files are still on my computer except the actual program itself.

Hi, InsaneCharlie.
Thanks for the question. I see you have uninstalled iTunes and want this program back. Start with completely uninstalling iTunes if present and all of it's components in the order specified in the article below. Once this is done, download and install iTunes. If none of your data was modified in the iTunes media folder, then your data should be present upon installation.

Externally edited files are corrupted

I'm trying to put together a book of images and I quite like what iPhoto offers. However, after importing the pics into the book template and arranging them, they needed some cropping and tweaking. I double click to open the images in Photoshop CS5, edit and close. The updated image is now saved as a separate file in iPhoto.
I then tried to create a PDF of the book and iPhoto reports that files are corrupted or missing - always the files I edited in Photoshop.
Anyone else experience this?
Cheers,
SNaP!

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair Library permissions.

Application files are corrupted. How do I reinstall application files?

I own the macbook Pro. My application files are corrupted. How do I reinstall them?

"Any more ideas?"
The point of my reply was for you to apply the 10.3.9 Combo Update over your installation. Repairing Permissions is always a good idea before and after any update or upgrade. Did you try this and still having Java problems/errors?
This will not harm anything to apply the Combo update over your OS.
You did not post which version of 10.3 you are using but you may wish to check to see if this Apple Knowledge Base article applies to your situation:

Cannot install downloaded Elements 12 files are corrupt

This time is costing me more than the program cost. I've spent hours uninstalling Photoshop Elements 12, installing Photoshop Elements 10, then my Premier Elements 12 was corrupt so I downloaded the installed after logging into my Adobe, now it will not install and says the files are corrupt. I need to get this program back on my computer please.
Windows 8, i7 processor, 16GB of RDRAM, 3GB of Graphics Memory, fast internet connection, problems finding any help from Adobe.

Hi timmyleeturner,
Do you have any antivirus, firewall or any other security software installed on the machine?
If yes, then please try to turn them off and download the software again from the link below.

Also check the size of the installer on the website and on your machine.

Your application files are corrupted!

I recently purchased a new MacBook Pro. I also have a three year old MacBook Pro that the new one is replacing. When the new one was removed from the box, it was running fine. It also asked me some questions concerning it being a replacement, so I said 'sure' and it wanted me to run the Migration Assistant. So I ran the Migration Assistant for the next four hours.
When it was completed, it said everything was copied successfully. Now, whenever I log onto the new MacBook, I receive the following error message:
"Your application files are corrupted! For security reasons please reinstall the application." Then there is an OK button.
I have tried reinstalling the application files (I think). Also, it only happens when I logon. So, I made a new account thinking the account may be the problem, but the new account shows the same error message. I tried holding down the Shift key until the progress bar appeared, but still no luck.
The old MacBook ran, or still runs fine and error free. What is my next step?
Thank you.

Recovery Mode and reinstall.
Or erase and reinstall.

OS X Internet Recovery
Mac models introduced after public availability of OS X Lion include the ability to start up directly from an Internet-based version of the OS X Recovery system. OS X automatically uses this feature when the Recovery System on the hard disk isn't available (such as when your hard disk encounters an issue, or when your hard disk has been replaced or erased). OS X Internet Recovery lets you start your Mac directly from Apple's servers. Starting up from this system performs a quick test of your memory and hard drive to check for hardware issues.
OS X Internet Recovery presents a limited interface at first, with only the ability to select your preferred Wi-Fi network and, if needed, entering a passphrase. Next, OS X Internet Recovery downloads and starts from a Recovery System image. From there, you are offered the same utilities and options as a local Recovery System.
Requirements for reinstalling OS X using Recovery
Reinstalling OS X using OS X Recovery requires broadband access to the Internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the Internet from Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation
If you use Internet Recovery to reinstall OS X, it installs the version of OS X that originally came with your computer. After installation is finished, use the Mac App Store to install related updates or later versions of OS X that you have previously purchased.

Some installation files are corrupt. Please download a fresh copy and retry

Hello,
I have installed BusinessObjects XI 4 SP02 on server 2008 R2. BO Client tools with sp02 and Patch 8 is also installed.
When tried to install BO Server patch 8 (ENTERPRISE02P_8-10009484) I get this error;
"Some installation files are corrupted. Please download a fresh copy and retry the installation."
while unzipping, WinRAR window throws below message in red;
CRC failed in dunit
\crystalreports.boe.clientactions.java.webpath_bundle-4.0-core-64\content.cab
I have tried twice with fresh copy downloaded on same server and still can't pass this error.
Loading latest patch such as patch 10 is last option since all client machines here are on patch 8.
Has anyone seen this behavior?

Hi,
I'm installing an updated version of Dashboard Design (SP04 Patch 0 - includes FP3). However, during the extraction of the installation file, I get the following message :

I tried to download the application again from SAP Service MarketPlace but the same message rises during installation.
The downloaded file is XCELSIUSENT04_0-20006661.exe
Did anyone manage to correclty install this version ?
Thanks for your feedback.
