Can't open just created file in illustrator

Hello!
Yesterday I created 4 logos and saved them in AI and today I can't open any of them. Illustrator says it's in know format and can't be open.
This error happens all the time for last 2 month and not only with illustrator, but with photoshop and indesign too. I can't work like this! I can't redo everything all the time.
I use Mac with Yosemite and CC2014.
Can someone help me? I tried restarting, clearing preferences and installing and uninstalling all the apps. illustrator

kirito,
It is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky, at least for a while, but it is better to be safe than sorry.
In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:

    Can you open any file, i.e. jpeg, etc.? Have you installed the Apple legacy Java: Java for OS X 2014-001? I'm guessing you have because you wouldn't be able to open PS at all without it. But have to ask.

  • Photoshop CS3 Can't Open or Create Files

    Since today I'm having problems opening or creating files.  When I try to, nothing happens.
    I tried resetting the preferenced file, but that didn't work.
    I don't have a network printer, so that can't be it either.
    Any help?

    I assume you tried this, but have you rebooted the computer?
    Has the screen resolution been set to a very small value? It needs to have at least 768 pixels vertically in order to show the Save dialog, for example.
    Is it possible the boy facilitated the download and installation of other software on the computer?

  • Photoshop CS 5.1 - can't open or create files

    Hi,
    I have Photoshop CS 5.1 32bit and 64bit (running on 64bit windows), and sometimes it happens so that I can't open files (jpg, psd, ...) in it. When I drag and drop a file to photoshop, or click on Open file dialog, or even try to make a new document, nothing happens.
    I have tried tricks with deleting preferences, but it didn't help. The only thing that helps is restarting windows - but this is not a practical solution for me.
    I would expect some help from Adobe on this, since we pay a lot for their products!
    Thanks,
    Marek

    I'm not literally "looking into it" as I'm not with Adobe nor can I reproduce the problem (and I am running Windows 7 x64 on several machines).  I'm really trying to catalyze the conversation here to help lead to a discovery.
    I think, since Adobe has said they've not been able to reproduce the problem, it falls on those seeing the problem to try to isolate it further.
    If it were me, I'd download and run the freeware tool Autoruns, then disable the software that's starting that you don't know you need.  Perhaps you'll discover what it is that's getting in the way of normal Photoshop operation, and can share that information here for others to use.  I actually use this tool myself regularly to keep my system clean and lean.

  • I can't open an .ai file in Illustrator without a dialog box appearing "Open PDF."  I have no idea what I can't open it as an Illustrator file (and not a PDF)

    Once I open a page as a PDF, all my layer info is lost.  I've tried opening it on two machines and the dialog box continues to appear.  Again, it's not a PDF extension. 
    Thanks for the help!

    Since you're sure you saved it back to CS5, the issue might have been caused by saving directly to the server. Illustrator does not particularly like that.
    90% of corrupt files are caused by saving directly to the server.
    You might try and first copy the file to your harddisk and then open it from there. Opening files directly from the server is an issue as well.

  • 10.5.5 Can't open previously created Illustrator files!!

    I've recently updated to 10.5.5 and now I can't open previously created Illustrator files, prior to the update, I had no problems. I get the error message- can't open the illustration with an OK box which, when clicked, opens the document in preview mode, but I can't do anything with the document!
    Anyone else have this problem?

    That implies that you didn't preserve a bootable backup/clone as strongly suggested in

    Without one of those, your only solution is to try an Archive & Install installation.

  • Created file in illustrator then opened in photoshop but color code changed?

    I Created file in illustrator and then opened the art in photoshop but the wierd thing is that the color code changed. If you look at the image with you eye the color will look the same to the naked but if you use the eye dripper tool you can see that the color code has changed between illustrator and photoshop.
    Is there a way to make the CMYK color code stay the same?

    In Illustrator the "Edit---> color settings" are set to "North America General Purpose 2" and the that is the same color setting choice in Photoshop.
    For example there is a black color in Illustrator that has this CMYK code "60, 49,47, 100"
    but in photoshop the CMYK code for the same part of the graphic changes to "75, 68, 67, 90"
    This is only one example of many color code changes that are happening and this may look like the same color on the screen but I need them to both have the same code because I am doing specialized printing and need no changes in color codes like this to occur.
    If I have the color setting in both photoshop and illustrator both set exactly the same "Edit---> color settings" then do you know why this color shift would be happening. Please help.

  • Just upgraded to 10.8.4 and now can't open canon raw files in photoshop cs5 with camera raw plug in 6.7

    i've just upgraded to os 10.8.4 and now i can't open canon raw files in photoshop cs5 with camera raw plug in 6.7 which worked perfectly prior to the upgrade....anyone else encountered this issue?

    Adobe's software is a mess in terms of the fact that it's sprayed all over the place and may not survive an OS upgrade.  Try reinstalling Photoshop CS5.

  • Just upgraded to Lion, can't open any pdf file downloaded from internet that was fine with Leopard. How can I overcome this obstacle ?

    Just upgraded to Lion, can't open any pdf file downloaded from the internet that was fine with Leopard before. I just got a black screen when I clicked on a pdf icon on a given internet site, and same happened with several sites that I visited. How can I overcome this obstacle ?

    Try two things with Safari not running:
    1) Launch Adobe Reader, open its preferences, select the Internet category, and check the values under "Display PDF in browser using".  If it's checked, try unchecking it.
    2) Look in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins (at the top-level of your boot volume) for something names AdobePDFViewer.plugin.  If you see such a file, try moving it to a folder named "Disabled Plug-Ins" (if such a folder exists) or onto the Desktop.
    Then see how things work.

  • My macbookpro is not opening pdf sites from safari or firefox, it goes to the address but just gives me a black screen. I can however open a pdf file that I have saved on my HD, it opens on preview. any thoughts?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste (command-V) into the text box that opens, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

    Hello! Can't open an IDML file. ID file was created in CC (10). It is a 100 page (50 spreads) doc that is one big table. It was created in CC (10) and saved as an IDML file. I have CS6 and when I try to open it, it shuts down ID almost instantly. The file was created on a MAC and I am trying to open it on a MAC. Any/all advice is greatly appreciated as I am up against a deadline with this unopened file! Many thanks in advance, Diane

    There's a good chance the file is corrupt. As whomever sent it to you to verify it opens on their end.

  • I have just bought a Panasonic Lumix compact camera. Aperture and Preview can't open the RAW files from this camera. Panasonic recommend downloading 'SYLKPIX Developer Studio SE' to save RAW file formats.How can Aperture and Preview read the files?

    Either use 'SYLKPIX Developer Studio SE' to develope the RAW files and to save them in another lossless format like TIFF, or try if Adobe's free DNG Coverter can convert your Lumix RAW files to dng. Then import the dngs. This way, your files will still be RAW files.  This works (most times) for my Lumix FZ28.
