Cannot open JPEG images in Photoshop CS3

When I try to open jpeg pictures in photoshop cs3, i get an error: "Could not complete your request because an unknown or invalid JPEG marker type is found."
It has just recently begun doing this, like maybe three days ago. Has anyone ever seen this error, or know how to solve it?
my system specs... AMD Turion tl-60 @ 2.0 GHz, 4gb Ram in vista 32 SP1, nvidia ge-force 7600, main hdd 200 GB 7200 RPM drive, 2nd hdd 80 GB 5400 RPM drive

I am getting errors (same as at top of thread, "invalid JPEG marker") saving a TIF as a JPEG, and then attempting to reopen the JPEG.
It seems to mostly work OK the first time, but if I then reopen the same TIF and save as a JPEG again - that JPEG will usually be corrupted. If I close Elements 2 each time, before opening a TIF and saving another JPEG, there is no problem.
I tried opening the corrupt JPEG with several other programs, and it definitely is corrupted.
This error did not occur several months ago as far as I am aware. We have tried this on all 4 of our computers. I am thinking that a Windows Update may be causing the problem. I tried using System Restore to go back to April 17th, but after 45 mins it announced that it couldn't restore, so I am reluctant to try another date.)

  • Opening multiple images in Photoshop CS3 windows

    I can open an image just fine in Photoshop CS3 by going file-open and clicking on the file, I then want to bring in another image into Photoshop CS3 by using file-open which I can do but then the first image disappears and only the second image is in Photoshop. Any ideas?
    Thanks, Larry

    Freeagent- It worked! Thanks for the advice.

  • Cannot open multiple images in Photoshop

    I recently purchased a new laptop (OS: Windows 7 Enterprise, 32 GB RAM) and installed CS5 on it.  All of the applications work well except for Photoshop.
    At first Photoshop would load correctly but crash when I tried to Save As.  I deleted the preference file upon startup and that fixed the problem. 
    Now every time I open more than one image in photoshop, my screen goes completely black. It doesn't matter whether I try to open them sequentially or all at once.  The most I can have open is 2 images.  When trying to open a 3rd, or when selecting more than one file to open all at once, the screen goes completely black. Eventually the screen does come back on, with the error that my AMD driver stopped responding and recovered.  But now Photoshop is frozen and I have to close Photoshop through the Task Manager. My video card is AMD FirePro M6100 and has been checked for driver updates. 
    Do we know what could be the source of this problem?  And how can I fix it, I often need >2 images open at once. 
    Thanks!

    All I coul find is this AMD FirePro M5100 / M6100 Graphics Driver Driver Details | Dell US

  • I cannot open an image in Photoshop CS5 (windows 7).

    When i go to file open and i try to import a picture all that comes up is the  grey checkered background. over in the layers box i can see the image. I have cs5 on 2 computers it works great on vista but i am having problems with windows 7 can some one please help!!! thanks

    Try disabling OpenGL drawing in preferences.  If that works, it means you need to update your video card driver.
    Also make sure you are running the latest version of Photoshop CS5 (12.0.1).

  • Bridge won't open JPG files in Photoshop CS3

    I changed my preferences to remove the check-box "prefer Adobe camera RAW for Jpeg and TIFF files" , restarted Bridge and tried to open a JPEG from bridge directly into photoshop. But double clicking on the image in bridge opened "paint".
    So I change the Bridge preferences back to Prefer ACR for JPEG again, restart Bridge, and then bridge tells me that it cannot find Photoshop CS2. CS2 is not even loaded on this machine anymore.
    So then I go to the file type associations preferences and "browse" to the CS3 version of photoshop, restart bridge, and double click on a JPEG and it again says that CS2 cannot be found. I change the association again using the "browse" to CS3 and then it opens the image up in "Paint" again.
    Why won't Bridge open JPEG's in ACR anymore?
    Why won't bridge open JPEG's in Photoshop CS3 anymore?

    Bill, thanks for the reply. But I do not think that the file associations is the answer here. If I am using bridge to open files in ACR or Photoshop, I do not believe that I need to change the windows file type association. I have other PC's where the file association is not photoshop and bridge works fine opening these files. In fact, when using windows explorer to navigate JPG files, I do NOT want photoshop being opened to preview these images. On my other PC's, I can both preview JPG's using windows picture viewer, and open the JPG's via bridge in ACR. Furthermore, Photoshop CS2 is NOT the application listed for JPG's in the folder options in the control panel. So the problem that I have here has something to do with Bridge or perhaps something is corrupted int he files.
    The reason why I suspect a corruption, is that not all files behave in the same manner in bridge. Some files with the same extension open as I would expect, while others do not. I did not realize this fact when I made my original post.

  • Please confirm, I cannot open RAW images in CS2 from EOS 50D

    Platform: XP Pro SP3
    After shooting my first session using the new Canon EOS 50D DSLR I cannot open RAW images in Photoshop CS2. Canon told me there was a free upgrade available to replace my current RAW editor ver. 3.7 BUT it appears from what I've read that I must buy CS4 to open RAW files created in the new Canon 50D. Thank you for your efforts.

    > ... from what I've read that I must buy CS4 to open RAW files created in the new Canon 50D.
    Considering the $$ you paid for the 50D, updating CS2 to CS4 for the sake of all the improvements in ACR would be well worth the $200.

  • Why can I no longer open images with Photoshop CS3, running on Mac OS 10.4.11?

    Why can I no longer open images with Photoshop CS3, running on Mac OS 10.4.11?

    You may be able to drag and drop the icons from one toolbar onto another, you can then hide the toolbar that you no longer need. For details on how to do that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+customize+the+toolbar

  • Have photoshop cs5 installed on desktop..got new Canon rebel T5i camera...cannot open RAW images...updated and installed plug-in...still now working.  Need help, please.

    I have photoshop cs5 installed on desktop...got new Canon rebel T5i camera...cannot open RAW images...updated and installed plug-in...still not working...help please.

    In any event, that camera was first supported by ACR version 7.4 which needs at least CS6 to run.  Naturally, all later versions support it too.
    Your choice is either to upgrade your Photoshop, or to look for, download, install, launch and run the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 on each folder containing your raw Canon files to convert them first to raw DNGs that you can open in CS5.
    In no case does an Adobe application belong "on your desktop".  The default install location should always be respected and left alone.

  • Opening raw files in photoshop cs3

    can anyone help please, can i open raw image files in cs3? do i need a plug in or a download? 

    You need Adobe Camera Raw (ACR).  Go to the download page and download the last vesion for CS3, believe it was 4.6. 
    Be aware that each version of Photoshop has its own series of ACR. 
    So if you have a latter model camera it might not work with an older ACR.  To check look here  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html

  • Cannot open JPEG files in PE9

    Cannot open JPEG files in PE9 "because an unknown or invalid JPEG marker type is found"

    it wants
    to default into a JPEG file and there is a JPEG marker on the end of the
    saved file even when I select Photoshop format.
    I would really like to see a screenshot of the save as window, since any time you have a layered file PSE fights you every step of the way and makes you save as a copy when you choose jpeg as the format.

  • Lightroom won't open an image in Photoshop CS2

    I have Photoshop 1.1 on a PC running Windows XP. I can't open a Lightroom image in Photoshop CS2 through the "photo" menu because the menu selection to open an image in Photoshop is dimmed. Also in "Preferences" in the "external editors" tab it says "Photoshop not found." My Photoshop is on the same drive as Lightroom. Am I wrong in assuming LR should open an image in CS2?
    In a related matter I opened a Photoshop customer support case about this, but did not receive a reply. Is this typical of Adobe? Isn't this the kind of question they should answer even without a paid support plan?

    Richard,
    What I did when faced with a similar situation was to go to Control Panel, and select Add or Remove Programs, then select Uninstall or Change for Adobe Photoshop CS2, then when prompted whether to Uninstall or Repair, choose Repair. This will fixup all the registry entries that appare to be missing from your system.
    Works for me at least.

  • Opening raw images in Photoshop Elements 9

    When opening raw images in Photoshop Elements 9 (File -> Open or File -> Open As), the Adobe Camera Raw dialog do not open.
    Instead I get a window with a progress bar and the text "Reading Camera Raw Format".
    The image then opens in the Photoshop Elements editor.
    I have tested this with raw images both from Canon EOS 1000D and Samsung WB2000 cameras.
    I would appreciate any suggestions on how to solve this issue.
    I run Photoshop Elements on a HP netbook running Widows XP and with an Intel Atom N450 / 1.66 GHz processor, 2 GB ram and a screen resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels.

    Unfortunately you can't see the raw converter in PSE 9 on screens less than 800 px tall, which means not on netbooks. PSE will automatically convert it for you, but that dialog box and a few others, like the Advanced Downloader window, will not appear.
