Cannot open .jpg photos sent from PC?

My wife sends me .jpg photos from her Windows PC but I cannot open them or save them to iPhoto. Get a message that the file may be corrupt etc. but other Mac users can open them.

Can you open them in Preview?

    See for yourself whether your ACR version would be able to handle those files if updated:

  • Cannot open jpg files in Preview? Error message "may be damaged or use a file format that preview does not recognize".

    For some reason I cannot open jpg files from a co-worker who previosuly sent files without any problems.  I just bought a MacBook Air with OS X Lion & Preview won't open the files.  She sent the same files to another co-worker who opened without any issues?  Help!  Anyone have any suggestions after having the same or similar problem?

    I don't have an answer as to why Preview doesn't want to cooperate, but if you only need to view the jpeg's and do nothing else to them, you can use two FREE applications that come already pre-installed on your Mac... Those are iPhoto and Safari. Just drag and drop over the application icon.
    You can also find several FREE photo viewers in the APP STORE.

  • Cannot open jpg

    Hi to all
    i am new to mac and the only complaint i have is that for some reason i cannot open jpg files that i sent via BT. or any form
    when i click on it the icon moves(like is going to open) but nothing comes on
    i have Google it and it seems a problem with preview.
    how can i go around this
    is there another app for viewing pictures
    i tried the iphoto but i have to manually send it there
    i just want to double click on a picture and preview it easily

    Preview should be able to view any true JPEG. If the JPEG is encoded in some proprietary format that may give you trouble. Verify your file is a .jpg file.
    If it isn't they sent it to you as an improperly coded JPEG.
    You can always try the Open With command from the contextual menu. Control-trackpad click gives you Open With as a contextual menu in the Finder. This lets you pick another application to open with.

  • Cannot open .jpg files; says read-only and no access

    I cannot open .jpg files I've been working on, even though I saved them as .jpg.  The prompt kept asking me to save the files over & over.  I did for a while then said NO to close the files.  Now it says access is denied.  Went to properties and tried to uncheck box for read-only, but it says I don't have access to do that.  How can I get my files back...these were very special photos.  Please help!

    No...just PSE7.  Unfortunately, when I tried to cut & paste the photos from
    my camera disk to my hard drive, the problem photo completely disappeared.
    When I go into recent history, the shortcuts are there, but none of them
    work.  They say the file has been moved or changed so...I don't even know
    where they are for now.  Do I need to call a repairman?

  • I cannot open any photo in Photoshop CC 2014 after upgrade the application and drivers of video-card.

    Since I have made an upgrade of Photoshop CC 2014 I got a lot of problems.
    At first, I could not open any pictures in Photoshop. It works only if I disable "Use Graphic processor". I installed a new driver for my video-card, but it did not help. I use AMD FirePro V4800 for 10-bit colour.
    I had to return the system to the restore point (before the upgrade), then it worked somehow, but not stable. ACR from time to time had a blue screen with a white cross.
    Now I tried to install drivers for my video-card again, but it resulted in the same issue: Photoshop cannot open any photo. (Other converters and editors and also a new Lightroom work well).
    I use Win7x64, i7 2600, 16 Gb RAM, two SSD's, AMD FirePro V4800. I have never had any problems before the upgrade. And I do not want to reinstall Photoshop because I would have to reinstall a lot of plug-ins, I have already lost a whole day.

    Glad it's not just me!
    Interestingly, when I spoke with Apple, I tried it in a new user account and the problem went away. Apple said to speak to Adobe which I have done and after deleting settings/prefs again the problem remained. Adobe say as it's fine in a new account then it's an Apple issue not Adobe.
    I did find a workaround for now though, when using file - open, set it to list view instead of column view - this fixed my problem but sadly I'm used to working in column view so it's not ideal!
    I also got the same error message when trying to replace a set of brushes yesterday too. I need to go back to Apple now but just need to schedule some time to sit and troubleshoot!

  • Cannot open Adobe Photo Elements 10 on my PC

    I cannot open Adobe Photo Elments 10 software on my PC.  I purchased the software from a local Best Buy retailer about one year ago and registered the product serial number with Adobe.  I also established an Adobe User ID and Password.  I paid for this product with my hard earned money and now I cannot open the program on my personal computer after having been able to do so in the past.  This is extremely poor customer service on the part of Adobe!!!   What are you going to do now to correct this problem or make a full refund to me?!
    Also, what is the Adobe help desk telephone number?  This company ought to display their customer help desk telephone number, email address and chat line prominently on their website if they are serious about good customer service.
    I am waiting now very impatiently!
    If I don't receive a respond promptly I will be forced to file a formal complain with the Fairfax County Department of Consumer Affairs!

    Hi Dean,
    I'm glad you got it all worked out. Here are two things that might help in the future with installation issues and serial numbers/activation issues:
    If you have activation problems try, here -- http://www.adobe.com/products/activation/
    There is an option to click a chat button on that page.
    If you find you have installation issues, you might want to check the Adobe user forum called download, install and setup. It can be found at:
    http://forums.adobe.com/community/download_install_setup
    Best regards,
    Pattie

  • Can't Open a photo sent via iPhoto on Blackberry

    When I email a Photo via iPhoto to a friend's Blackberry, she is not able to open the photo, it shows as a jpeg, but she can't open.
    If I send a photo to her Blackberry from my iPhone she is able to open.
    It appears that it is only with Photos sent from a Mac, same thing happens when her father tries to send Photos to her from his Mac.
    Thanks in advance for the advise

    Thanks, that works when I start a new email from mail and send the photo as an attachment. It does not work when I click on a photo in iPhoto and send it?
    If you select a photo in iPhoto, click mail, once mail opens you go to the format menu and make it plain text it does not work?

  • Cannot open any photos/movies in Entourage, message comes up saying 'folder cannot be found'. Last week I deleted lots of old documents/downlods and fear that I have accidentally deleted file that opens photos/movies.....any suggestions???

    I cannot open any photos/movies in Entourage, message comes up saying 'folder cannot be found'. Last week I deleted lots of old documents/downloads and fear that I have accidentally deleted what is needed to open photos/movies.  Any suggestions please? Should re-install the whole Office:mac program, and is it easy to do this without disturbing what I have on my computer?

    When you password-protected these folders then you did so to prevent anyone from accessing the pictures unless he had the correct password, even if he deleted the password application itself. Are you now asking how to get around this protection? If you
    selected a robust protection scheme then you probably got what you wanted: uncrackable encryption. You need to check the FAQs of this application and/or google for clues. Alternatively you could restore your files from your external backup medium (if you have
    one . . .).

    You move it back to the Applications folder or reinstall it from your OS install disk, using Pacifist if needed.

  • Opening jpg in photoshop from lightroom

    I have Lightroom 4.2 and Photoshop CS6. If I'm viewing a photo in LR and select edit in CS6, the photo doesn't open in camera raw, even though I have CR selected in photoshop preferences as my preference. Is this normal?

    You cannot open directly into ACR from Lightroom.  Lightroom and ACR perform the same functions.  In the transfer from Lightroom to Photoshop the design is for ACR to simply interpret the adjustments made in Lightroom, and apply those adjustments to the image that is opened in Photoshop.  Technically speaking, ACR isn't needed for anything else because it is simply a duplication of effort.  So if you want to return or enter ACR, you have to do as Rick indicated, and double click on the smart object in the layers panel.
