Can't open/add files to any program.

Everytime I try to open a file in iTunes,VLC player and etc the window (that contains the files.So I guess finder(?) ) disappears.The first time within a milisecond and the second time it stays open longer.

Hi
I created my website using iWeb, and use iWeb SEO Tool (3rd party software) to upload onto the internet so that my website can be found on the net.
But since upgrading to Lion OSX I can't open my iWeb file in iWeb SEO  - my Library file has been moved and my iWeb file has disappeared!! I have since found the iWeb file through Finder (by using Go to ~/Library/) but still cannot find it using iWeb SEO so can't upload changes to my website.
Can someone help please? It is very frustrating!
Many thanks in advance!
Have you checked to see if iWeb SEO is compatable with Lion or if there is an update for it? Apple have dropped iWeb from their iLife suite in Lion. It will continue to work, but uploading to MobileMe will cease very shortly.

  • Can't open/place files in other programs

    I can't open or place Illustrator files in InDesign or Photoshop, and vice verse, unless I save them as pdf's first.
    I'm pretty sure I used to be able to open and place any file in any program without making them pdf's. Any ideas?

  • "The files appears to be unsupported or damaged" - I can't open the files in any software

    I have just returned from a trip where i was on the road for 7 weeks and out of 5000 shots have 30 corrupted DNG files, one of which i would love to save please can you help? My work flow:
    Shoot DNG files using Leica M9
    Take SD card out sporadically and using SD card reader mount on Macbook air (very old) v1
    Open Lightroom 4 on macbook air import to HD
    Drag and drop in Lightroom on to external HD
    Realised pretty soon some thing was not right with images but continued work flow with out problems with any other import
    On returning home i imported project into a new LR5 project on my 15'' Macbook pro running OsX10.8.5, processor 2Ghz intel i7 with 8gb ram
    IN LR 5.5(just updated) on my Macbook pro & Macbook air LR4 I can see the preview of the corrupted images in library mode but when go to Develop i get the "The files appears to be unsupported or damaged". In Photoshop CS5 i get "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognise this type of file"
    The corrupt files are the same size 36.4MB as the non corrupt images suggesting the info is there. Is there software anyone can suggest that will open the file with the corruption so i can some how fix in photoshop? The SD card was one of many used and was over written many times after so i can not retrieve the images that way i'm afraid.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated and i can forward you a copy of the file if you have the time.

    Realised pretty soon some thing was not right with images but continued work flow with out problems with any other import
    Exactly what was not right?
    Most likely a hardware problem causing corruption in the transfer of files from SD card to your computer. It could be the SD card itself, card reader, hard disk or memory.
    Side issue:
    Open Lightroom 4 on macbook air import to HD
    Drag and drop in Lightroom on to external HD
    why don't you save yourself a step and import directly to the external HD (and thus also produce one less place where file corruption can happen)?

  • Can you open ID files with any other apps?

    I was a subcontractor for a printer. The printer's client requested the production files. I package the files. Five books. Each folder contains ID file, art, supplied word docs, and exported PDF. The client calls printer and says they all open but one. I open it, check it, email it. She calls me this morning to tell me the one file still won't open. I asked her what version of CS she has and she says she doesn't have InDesign. I tell her it's impossible to open ID file without ID. She goes off on me for questioning her, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, can someone tell me if it's possible she somehow opened the other 4 files somehow in some conversion app. The only thing I could think of is if they have QX and used markzware ID2QX plug in from within QX. I'm in the process of repackaging the files so all the ID files, PDFs, Word Docs, Art, Covers are all in separate folders.
    For the record, I opened all 5 ID files on my PC before sending to the client so the files aren't corrupt.

    My arrangement with this printer is that I surrender production files. Another part of the job was that I have to return LIVE paginated word docs to the client for future editing. In addition, the word docs are in Spanish and the client was very specific about page breaks. Furthermore, even though there are 5 books, I get Spanish word docs from 7 people. The word files come to me formatted. Almost as clean as my ID files would be. So I've been editing the word docs, exporting to PDF and placing those into ID.  I paginate and add art to fill in the holes as per sample books provided. So the layout files contain nothing but PDFs and filler art. It was the only way I could think of to give the client back word docs paginated specifically as they were given to me.

  • After installing Adobe, I find I can't open pdf files and the program shuts down automatically.

    Older versions of Adobe did not give me this trouble.  What's wrong?

  • Can't open a file with spaces on the filename.

    Lets say I have a file:
    /home/orv/Open - Me - Please.txt
    When I double click to open that file with any program, the result is something like this:
    "Unable to find /home/orv/Open%20-%20Me%20-%20Please.txt"
    I'm not sure what to call that process of converting the file name so I've been unable to google it up to find a fix or a way to change the behavior of the file manager.
    I've checked the settings in Nautilus and nothings there. Any clues? Thank you!

    I tried removing everything in my home directory to erase all settings, still the same problem.
    I tried using a different file manager and still the same problem.
    Here's another example of my problem and its quirks:
    Lets say I have a file called:
    /home/orv/I am a Movie.avi
    In nautilus or thunar, double-clicking that file so I can play it with Mplayer will give an error:
    Failed to open file:///home/orv/I%20am%20a%20Movie.avi
    However, when I drag and drop using the file manager into Mplayer, it works.
    So my problem is this automatic conversion of whitespaces into the %20 which I don't know how to turn off.

  • Some users can't open Excel files. It is trying to open it in Internet Explorer "An error has occurred. Please try again."

    I have some users in my company that can't open Excel files from any document libraries on SharePoint 2010. The receive the error message "An error occurred. Please try again."  We don't currently use the Excel calculations services. When
    a user opens an excel file they are prompted to either Read Only or Edit.
    This affects less than 5 people in a large company.  They have the Full Control permissions and have been able to open the files previously.  There has been no changes made to the server either.  I can't find anything that points to this in the
    event viewer. 
    It doesn't matter if which computer that they try to open this up from either.   All computers are Windows 7 Professional with IE 9 and Office 2010 x64.   
    I can't find anything that points specifically to this exact error. None of the excel files contain pivot tables.    This one has me stumped.

    I would make sure no one has open on machine / locked on machine (Would assume you checked this, but wanted to add)
    Also would have assumed you restarted the machines (:))
    Make sure the file security did not change (check to ensure no one changed the sercuity of the excel)
    Make sure the version of excel is the same (Changing from 2010 back to 2007 affects the file, etc.. on convert) that no one converted and saved thus causing error in file.
    Can they open other excel files?
    It sounds like the excel file it self has changed if you cannot see issue in SharePoint logs.
    If it is all SharePoint excel files - try deleting one persons access and readding them to see if that helps.
    SharePoint has issues ;)

  • Can't open .Sit files

    I've been trying to install some drivers that download as .sit files. I then can't open these files. Any suggestions out there?

    Bartley,
    You will have to install Stuffit Expander.
    Please read: Mac OS X 10.4: Where is StuffIt Expander?
    Allume StuffIt Expander doesn't come with Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger.
    But Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger lets you compress and decompress archive (.zip) files that work with both Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows.
    If you'd like to use StuffIt Expander too, for example, to open .sit or .sitx compressed files, you can download it from the Allume Systems website.

  • OneNote recordings "We're sorry, we can't open the file because it is in use by another program."

    Constantly, OneNote breaks and screws up my recordings that are synced with my lectures. It is such a fragile process and very frustrating. As soon as I'm done recording, I press stop. When I test the recording, it says, "We're sorry, we can't open
    the file because it is in use by another program." I just recorded and then stopped it. If i close and reopen OneNote, it says, "oneNote is cleaning up from the last time it was open." And the recording still says it's in use by another program.
    I've even restarted the laptop and it still won't open. The only way i could salvage the file is if I copy and paste it into another folder, and then it will open through windows media player, but all the live syncing with my notes are gone. Where are these
    files stored? If I could save the sound and find the file/format that holds the syncing data again, I could work around this. They are no where to be found on my computer. Other forums give locations, but my folders are empty. Some other recordings work and
    sync nicely, but I have still lost many recordings to this error. However, if I play a file and then close it without stopping playback, that file, too, will now be unusable. It will be stuck as "We're sorry, we can't open..." no matter what i do
    and again i have to copy/paste it into a new folder and then move it back. I had the same problem on my last laptop. I record in Windows Media Audio 10 Professional at 192 kbs, 48 kHz, and stereo CBR. I need the high quality because the lecturer is too quiet.
    It seems to happen when I record long lectures, 45 min+. Shorter recordings tend to work fine.
    Please help, this would make note taking so much easier.

    A bit of a confusion on my part;
    Now we have created these REPORTS using Basic Crystal Report 10.5, which comes bundled with Visual Studio 2008 and .Net Framework 3.0. Now on our machines, we have never experienced any issues.
    Going by the above, you should have references to CR assemblies of version 10.5.3700 only. No other references.
    Now, looking at this paragraph:
    BUT on the DEV server (web server) which has .net Framework 3.0 and in its GAC its has CRYSTAL DLLs version 11.5 (required to create an Object of ReportClass and its related functions) ; sometimes we get the following error while exporting crystal report to pdf:
    I wonder what runtime was deployed to the server. E.g.; if you are using CR 10.5, your assemblies will be 10.5.3700 and you should be deploying the following runtime (depending on 32 bit / 64 bit, etc.):

  • I can not open raw files in elements 12 any help please?

    I can not open raw files from my Nikon D610 in elements 12. (I have already downloaded raw converter 8.3 but to no avail) any help please would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Can you confirm which Camera Raw PSE 12 is actually using by loading the editor and going to Help -> About Plug-in -> Camera Raw.
    If you do Help -> Updates it may install the latest camera raw of 8.4 - not on XP or Vista systems.
    Do you use any Nikon software to download the images? The older versions have been known to corrupt the files.
    See the following for more info.

    Reinstall 10.6 again, but this time hold c boot off the 10.6 and erase the ENTIRE internal drive.
    You do this by selecting the drive makers name and size on the left hand side, not the slightly indented partition underneath it.
    If you erase and install 10.6 only into a parittion, say Macintosh HD, the you still have the hidden Lion Recovery Partition on the drive and it appears you already have 10.7
    In the MAS, hold option and click Purchases to redownload Lion
    FYI, you don't need to install 10.6 to reinstall 10.7, 10.7 can be reinstalled via the Lion Recovery, Command r boot.

  • Error message: "Dreamweaver can't open .jpg files"

    I'm using DW 8, and I have installed the 8.0.2 update. I'm
    having trouble inserting certain JPG images into a site. I get an
    error message pop-up that states "Dreamweaver can't open .jpg
    files". It will allow me to insert some jpg files, but not all of
    them. I've tried drag & drop and going through the Insert menu.
    The files are not large at all. Doesn't appear to be any problem
    with png's or gif's. It's incredibly frustrating. Anyone have any
    suggestions? TIA.

    > why was i taught that all my web images need
    > to be in 72dpi if it doesn't really matter?
    most people suggest 72 because it was an old standard with
    the early
    macintosh DTP programs. For web use it's easier to
    standardize on it because
    when you make an image, you have to put ~some~ number in the
    resolution box
    and it might as well be 72 as any other number. It simplifies
    moving image
    files around in different applications if they are all the
    same resolution.
    For display in a browser, these will all have the same file
    size and display
    size in a web page:
    600x600 pixels at 1dpi
    600x600 pixels at 72dpi
    600x600 pixels at 6000dpi
    It's when they are used in other applications or when a
    direct url like
    /photos/1.jpg is printed out that they may display in the
    resolution, not
    the pixel dimension.
    I came across a page once where the designer always saved his
    images with a
    resolution of 6000 dpi or some other odd number because he
    thought that if
    people dragged the image off the page to save it- most of
    them wouldn't be
    able to resize it. or some other idiot reason maybe.
