Cannot open file because identity of developer cannot be verified

Hi,
I cannot open a Text-Animation file I downloaded from: http://www.blender.org/download/
The msg. I get from Core Services says: "Blender can´t be opened because the identity of developer cannot be verified"
It does´nt matter if I double or Richt-Click to Open.
Is there a way to get the developer verified???
(Would really like to use this App!).
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Right click on the file and choose open from the menu.
If that does not work (and you are sure that this app is safe) go to System Preferences>Security & Privacy>General, set 'Allow Apps etc' to 'Anywhere'. Change it back after you download this app.
Be aware that bypassing the normal security settings may not be safe.

I am in the middle of a job using CS 6, but at the same time opening the Creative Suite apps. I created an InDesign file in CS 6, saved it, and now I can't open it. I'm getting this message: Cannot open file because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.1). You must use that version or later to open the file." AARRGGHH! So how do I access the file?

Sounds like you opened and saved it in CC, so now you need to go back to CC and either complete the project there, or export to IDML to take it back into CS6.

An attempt to open a pdf file with Photoshop Elements (version 12) resulted in a pop generated by the Photoshop Editor stated "Impossible to execute this operation (opening file) because one of the specified colour is not managed". Is there any mean to adapt the file to make its reading possible?
Did somebody get the same problem?

It is a high order probability that your SQL's report generator is creating the PDF, not Acrobat (which by design and EULA cannot be used in as/with server).
That the report generator outputs to an old-old version of PDF bears this out.
Wiki articles on PDF are very nice for those high level intro summaries.
To know / understand PDF you purchase and study the ISO Standard for PDF (ISO 32000-1:2008).
Rather than "PDF validation" you may want to consider addressing the appearent root cause of the problem(s).
You can change the email2fax application to one that can deal with older PDF versions.
You can change the report generator to one that can output to the ISO Standard.
(Perhaps the in-use application can be configured to output to the current version of PDF (i.e., the ISO Standard).
Be well...

Unsolved: unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document

I'm trying to open a presentation I made some time ago, it is a .key file I used to open without any problems. Now the message appears:
"Unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document".
I tried the solution described here, but it didn'd work: i change extension to .zip, unzip it and there is no index file. There are only pictures from the presentation in .tiff
I also sent the file to my friends and they had the same problem opening it. It's very strange, I've successfully opened it before. And the problem is only with THIS file!
Please help me out!

Have you tried to create a new Keynote Presentation? Do you have another previously saved Keynote file you can try to open? These will make sure it is a problem with this specific presentation and not the whole program.
Try to delete the Keynote Preferences. They are located in the folder Macintosh HD>Users>your username>Library>Preferences and titled com.apple.iWork.Keynote.plist.
Your profile shows that you are still on Mc OS 10.6.6, is that true? You might try to update to 10.6.7 as I believe that there was a font issue fixed in this update (I don't know for sure since I am still on 10.5.8).
Try those and report back and we will see what we can come up with.

URGENT - Error "Unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document" - and there is no index file (so the usually suggested solution doesn't work)

Hi there,
As you see in the heading, I am getting the error "Unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document". There has been a number of threads on this and there seems to be a usual work around that works in many cases, by changing the file extension to .zip and then looking for the index file and making some more extension changes...unfortunately, in my case (and it also happened to others), there is no index file, so the usually suggested solution doesn't work...Can someone please help? I am working on a tight deadline and would like to try and recover the file.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best,
Just a regular apple user
PS: any other presentation opens fine in Keynote (09)

Keynote can't open file because it is damaged

I've created several presentations in Keynote 09 that worked fine initially but suddenly won't open anylonger. When I click on the file, I get the following error message:
"Keynote can't open file because [filename] is damaged"
I was able to open two of the 3 affected presentations by opening them through File =>Open recent, then resaving them as a Keynote 08 file.
This lead me to think that maybe double-clicking the file to open it doesn't work and opening it through File =>Open does. Indeed, one of my Keynote 09 files that didn't open on double-click and generated the error message opened just fine when opening it though the application file menu.
I tried this on the other 09 files but that trick doesn't work anylonger. It seems to be totally random. The same file will open at times (through File -> open), but not at others. I'm at a loss here.
I was able to resave all 3 files to Keynote 08 and am able to open all of them now, but the problem I'm sure will persist with new presentations I create in 09. Any suggestions?
Maybe a directory problem? Anybody run into the same problem yet?
I have a feeling I'll br throwing 09 out the window and going back to the old version of Keynote.

I have had similar issues with KY '09. After working on a file over a few days, a message pops up saying it can not be saved. It created a backup copy that was saved so no work was lost. However, the original file is gone and only the backup remains. I can save it as a different name and go back to work but get the same issue.
This is a 10 slide keynote with mostly text and a couple images. *** did they do in this version. I too will probably revert as I work at a school that just purchased a site license for iWork '09 and iLife '09.
I am still testing the export of a recorded keynote to QT as my first export did not include the audio which was a problem in KY'08 and QT version 7.6 I believe.

Garage band can not open files because sound can't be found

i meen i used that sound to create that file...
one day it just worked again for some times. but now same problem again...

Please repost in the InDesign forum. It sounds like a permissions issue. Please state your OS, your version of InDesign, and the location of the files that you cannot edit.
BTW, in Lion, Apple decided that older files cannot be opened for editing. You need to open the file and do a save as to create an editable file. This is supposed to protect you from accidentally overwriting old files. I think it is a little big brotherish. But some have said they are happy with the new way of handling old files.

When downloading, why do I get a message saying "Safari cant open file because the file has moved since it was downloaded?" I just attempted to download the file from a website. Thanks.

When downloading from a website, I get a message that says, "Safari cant open th file--- because the file has been moved since you downloaded it. How do I correct this problem. It wont let me open attachments from yahoo email either. Thanks.

EDIT:
After posting I see this question has the tag of "windows". I don't know if this applies to the Windows version or not.
The only time I see this message is if I download something, trash it, AND empty the trash. If I don't empty the trash, it finds it there. It will find it wherever I move it to, unless it is was in the trash and emptied.
Using Finder, is the downloaded file in your Downloads folder?
Maybe if you go to Safari/Preferences/General and change the location for downloads to something else then change it back to Downloads it might correct it.

Can't open files because ID5.5 is missing

Was happily creating ID files in 5.5 and had a computer disaster. New computer, new install -- up to ID5.0. But ID5.5 disc won't install and InDesign 5.0 won't open any of my old files because of a list of missing plugins. How can I get a new install of ID5.5 without spending more thousands? I am retired now and need ID for freelance work.

If you have a serial number you can download 5.5 form this link:
Direct Download All Official Adobe CS5.5 Free Trials
http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs5-5-direct-download-links.html
Follow instructions exactly
And if you haven't serial number download a trial version, then save your documents as IDML and open in indesign cs5

Cannot open file because its not a movie file?

I have a file that was ingested using FCP and has been edited using FCP. I moved the file from the default place to a couple of different places for organizational purposes. After being absent for a couple of weeks, the video now cannot play. I try to reconnect in FCP and it is an unrecognized file. I try to open it in QT on multiple machines and QT cannot open it.
Not sure what to do next. Ideas?

Sorry. I thought I had mentioned that in the OP, however after looking I see that I didn't. The files were recorded from my camcorder. Its a consumer Canon HD camcorder. Pretty standard. I have used and ingested loads of video from this camera before.
Thanks

Cannot open file because saved CS7.0, what?

Sorry - i do not understand this: i try to open a indd file with Indd CS6 and i see this alert:
I do not use CS7.0 but i use CS6 8.1! What is the problem?
I do not know what Indesign have created this file.
(Note: InDesign CC open the file with no problem!).
Many thanks!

The error messages were written before the decision to name the new versions CC instead of CS7 was made. The file was saved in CC (version 9.x)

Error Message - Can't install because "identity of developer can't be confirmed."

Hey Adobe here's an idea.
Maybe have some sort of actual customer support instead of this virtual support group where users have to try and figure out your product.

There's a similar bug for Firefox that produces the error,
'''Firefox.app can't be opened because the identity of the developer cannot be confirmed'''.
In case it helps, see this Firefox article (and the related discussion):
*[[Firefox can't be opened on a Mac - how to fix it]]
Just substitute "Thunderbird" for Firefox" in the instructions.

Now that you have marked your question as solved there will be little interest in it and little chance of a solution for you.
Start a new thread, don't mark it as solved until it is.
