.ase is an unknown format

All,
I've tried downloading an existing theme and using it in AI
CS2 but I get this message: 'The file "Bell Peppers.ase" is in an
unknown format and its styles cannot be imported.' I've created
.ase files through CS before and these have worked okay. Could it
just be this theme?
Ta, Anthony

Hi Bryan,
So glad it's working for you now. Let us know how you end up
using kuler on kuler stories.

  • Unable to open .eps file "unknown format and cannot be opened" ?

    A client sent me an .eps file (logo). I tried opening it in Illustrator AND photoshop (just to see if it was saved in one vs the other program) - however to no avail.
    Illustrator gives me a message "unknown format and cannot be opened"
    Photoshop gives me a message "photoshop was unable to parse the postscript".
    I'm using Adobe CS4, and I've never seen this message before—would love to know what this means and how to resolve?
    File attached if anyone is able to open / fix it?
    Thanks kindly,
    Chemol

    Thanks for the advice Scott - does compression improve the .eps?  Is it
    silly for me to ask them to compress it since the file is only 766 KB
    (that's how big the attachment is in my email - though I am unable to open
    it)?
    My friend is able to open it on his end - however the 3rd person (client) is
    the one who sent it, and I have already requested a different version - no
    response from them yet.  Unfortunately what the company "has" is what he
    will likely give to me again (ie: same file / unable to open).  So ... I am
    curious about how I can resolve this issue on my end - if possible?
    Do you know what the AI and Photoshop error messages mean? Could the issue
    be a mac vs PC concern? Or is it a corrupt file? Could it be a software
    version issue (old vs new) ... or Quark incompatibility?
    .... just guessing at this point....Any insight as to what different
    scenarios may apply in this situation would be greatly appreciated ..thank
    you.

  • "E:\filename.ai" is in an unknown format and cannot be opened"

    My computer crashed. I just re-installed Adobe Illustrator 10.03. Now some of my ".ai" files show funny looking icons and won't open and instead a pop-up that says "E:\filename.ai" is an unknown format and cannot be opened". Some of my documents are just fine. But there are several Illustrator docs in various spots on my hard drive that are giving me this error.
    Any suggetions on how to get these files to open up?

    OK. Now we're getting somewhere.
    Without knowing more about the precise nature and cause of the "crash," we can only make guesses, and here's mine:
    Basically, Katie, you're screwed.
    My guess is that either the "crash" and/or your boss's subsequent handling of the D: drive (which might have been entirely proper) has caused data corruption on that drive.
    If you have no backup for the files on the drive, and if those files are of critical importance, I would disconnect the drive immediately and get it to a data recovery specialist. The longer you have it connected, the more you reduce the chance of recovering data.
    If the data are somewhat less than critical, you can try some basic recovery steps yourself. Start by making an image backup of the drive (to an external drive or removable media), then run chkdsk on it with the /r option. Rename any recovered files (with the .ai extension), and try opening them.
    Finally, you might send the .ai files that won't open to a specialist who knows the Illustrator file format. He/she might be able to make some partial fixes that will, at least, enable you to open the files.
    If you want, upload a few of the files to a server and post the link here. Some of the experts here might have a crack at it. (Put the files in a .zip archive first to protect them against further corruption during transfer.)

  • IDVD: Files exported from iMovie 11, one works, one "Unsupported File Type : Unknown format"

    I used footage from the same camera (taken on the same weekend using the same settings) in several different iMovie "projects". All were shared from iMovie 11 as "File" using the quality setting "SD 480p".
    In Quicktime Player, all ".mp4" files will play and they show the following info in its inspector:
    Format: H.264, 854 x 480
                  AAC, 48000 Hz, Stereo (L R)
    FPS: 29.97
    One exported file will drag, drop, and burn in iDVD just fine. The other two files show the error "Unsupported File Type : Unknown format" as soon as I try and drag them into iDVD.
    The only difference I can find is that the one file that works is about 803MB, while the files that don't work are 1.87GB and 3.98GB.
    All files and the iDVD project are in the same folder on my startup volume. I've tried deleting com.apple.idvd but that didn't help. I've tried rebooting and starting the iDVD project from scratch but I get the same results.
    Mac OS 10.9.1
    iMovie 10.0.1
    iDVD 7.1.2
    Any ideas?

    Hello Bengt and thank you again for the replies.
    As I mentioned in my previous posts, I'm using iMovie 10.0.1 which has very limited quality adjustments. In every case I chose the smallest size, which iMovie 10.0.1 calls "SD 480p (854 x 480)". I used this same setting on all exports.
    I still have iMovie HD (6.0.4) and iMovie '11 (9.0.9) on my iMac so I tried both of them. In both cases, they could import only the file that works in iDVD. Both older versions of iMovie choked on the longer movies shared from iMovie 10.0.1.
    I have many many hours into the editing of these clips and I do not want to have to go back and redo everything in an older version of iMovie. Might I be better off going with a different DVD creation software? Or am I out of luck? Because I can't really change iMovie 10.0.1's export settings, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to get it to export it as something that iDVD can use (really, I can't even tell why it's different and why iDVD doesn't like it).
    The software "WonderShare DVD Creator" has no issue with any of the files I've exported from iMovie 10.0.1.    

  • What I view the dbx files are of unknown format from TEMP directory?

    When you start Outlook Express DBX file to create a push, but after the program can not find it. There is a configuration change that? In the TEMP folder found files, but they are of unknown format, what I view the dbx files? 

    The user of the DBX Viewer Tool can recover mail messages from *.dbx files in the batch mode. If you recover messages in the Batch mode, messages are extracted from *.dbx files one by one and immediately saved to the hard drive. Batch message recovery can be
    used to recover correspondence from a large number of corrupted *.dbx files simultaneously.
    http://www.dbx.viewertool.com/ The Batch Mode will allows you to considerably save time and effort spent on organizing the process of recovering messages from corrupted *.dbx files.

  • Receiving an "Unknown Format" error code when submitting a form

    Product: Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended
    Hi, I'm trying to find out what exactly is Acrobat expecting as a return value on its form submission.
    two parts to my setup:
    1. The form. It is a garden vaiety form with a button on it which set up as follows:
    Action -> Mouse Up -> Submit a form -> PDF The complete document
    2. The receiver.  This is a REST based service, expecting a HTTP Post.
    For the most part, the whole setup works like a charm - the form is posted by the client, the server receives the file, creates a local copy and processes it correctly. After the post is successfully received, the last step on server is to send a reply to the client. This is where I’m getting stuck.
    If I return an HttpStatusCode.Ok and a blank SOAP.Fault, I’m getting and “Unknown Format” error on the client side. I tried several different combinations/values/etc, including sending the result code only, but since I don’t know what exactly is acrobat expecting, I’m just shooting in the dark. Other error codes I’ve seen include “Invalid Server Response”.
    Unfortunately I can’t find any guidance from Adobe on what Acrobat is expecting in return for the submit functionality, so any help/pointers are greatly appreciated.
    Thanks everyone!

    Here is the contents of a sample FDF that will cause a popup to display when it is imported:
    %FDF-1.2
    1 0 obj
    << /FDF << /Status (Your message goes here.) >> >>
    endobj
    trailer
    << /Root 1 0 R >>
    %%EOF
    Replace "Your message goes here." with the text you want to display, and don't change anything else in the sample. The value of the /Status key in the FDF is a PDF string, so it has to follow the rules described in the PDF standard (ISO 32000) for strings. So read up on it so you know how to properly escape/encode PDF strings.
    Note that the server needs to set the MIME type of the response in the "Content-type" HTTP header to "application/vnd.fdf".

  • HELP!!! "unknown format cannot open"...BUT it's a Illustrator CS3 file?????

    I spent several hours designing a file in CS3. I went to "Save as Web & Devices" and my MAC froze and I had to reboot. I now cannot open the illustrator file without getting the "file is an unknown format and cannot be opened" error. I have tried dropping the file in Distiller, placing in InDesign and trying to place into a blank illustrator file with no luck. I have even tried to open the file in Photoshop file. All attempts say the file is unknown. Did the crash corrupt the illustrator file? If so, is there a way to recover. I pray there is!! I do not want to redesign this project again!!! HELP!!

  • Importing .mov "Unsupported File Type : Unknown format" error

    I have a .avi video from a camera and wanted to burn to a dvd to watch on dvd player. I converted the video to .mov but when I dragged into iDVD I received an error stating "Unsupported File Type : Unknown format". I converted to a .mp4 hoping that might work and had the same error. As far as I remembered .mov and .mp4 should work in iDVD and iMovie but I had the same error in both programs.
    Converted to .mov with iSquint, and to .mp4 with Quicktime.
    Any suggestions?

    hi,
    thank you for responding...  i followed your instructions and this is what comes up when i try to open the movie:
    QuickTime Player can't open_______.mov
    To see if additional software is available that will enable QuickTime Player to open the movie, click Tell Me More.
    i've done nothing different with this movie.  it's the 2nd part of a longer project that i had to break into two parts.  the first part was successfully burned to disk.  i'm at a loss as to why this one is 'different' and why anything else might be required to make it work properly.
    btw, here's the info from the entire project: 
    format: DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, 720 x 480 (853 x 480)
    Linear PCM, 16 bit little-endian signed integer, 2 channels, 48000 Hz

  • Unsupported File Type : Unknown format - idvd surely knows .mov

    I have just installed IDVD 7 03 (ilife'09) and it won't take in .mov or .mp4 or any other video format.
    I'm on macbook pro 10.5.8.
    Unsupported File Type : Unknown format - comes up when I drag it over.
    Begging for help here! Have a client waiting on a DVD i promised!

    I don't really know but feel doubtful as
    DVD is as standard - interlaced SD-video with a frame rate of 25 fps (PAL) or 29.97 fps (NTSC)
    the feeding it progressive material in HD and in some cases as 24 fps  - must be problematic.
    I would
    a. Import my movie into iMovie
    b. Share to Media Browser and as Large (not HD or other res. as result will suffer)
    c. In iDVD import from Media button and Movie and here find Your movie and drop it into iDVD menu window

  • Trying to import dvd into iDVD,it says Unsupported File Type:Unknown format

    Hi there,
    I just had a home movie transferred from vhs to dvd. Now I am trying to import it into iDVD and when i try to the message appears : Unsupported File Type :Unknown format
    Logical Volume Identifier/VIDEO_TS.
    I wanted to put the home movie to music (it allowed me to import the song, not the video).
    It says the kind of file is UNIX Executable File.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    to do this you would first need to convert the DVD (mpeg 2) to QT so you can import to iDvd which btw involves a quality hit. There are apps out there that can do this at a marginal level ... for example:

  • Unknown Format error when using SubmitForm button?

    Can anyone tell me what causes this or how to resolve it? I'm doing a submitForm to a URL and I keep getting UNKNOWN FORMAT error? I am new to this and have no idea where to look.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your response to my original question but the resolution you proposed was to replace the URL with a valid URL. Obviously, I'm not going to place the correct URL that I'm using for a variety of reasons including security. In addition I wouldn't be on here if I didn't need help nor would I be posting more messages. I'm new to this and really don't use adobe for submitting files back to a server. I'm thinking the problem is in the mime type or header information on the server side but it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. I'm downloaded the FDF toolset and now trying that approach from a servlett point of view. Thanks for your response.
