Cant open .dcr file

Director 12, trial.
Mac OS 10.8.2
Old .dcr (guessing from between 2000 and 2005)
Its greyed out in the open file-window.
Is it not possible to open files with the trial version? Something else wrong maybe?
Edit: Renamed it .dir. Not greyed out anymore, but when trying to open it: Cant open file. Its protected. Is it possible to unprotect the file?

No version of Director can File/Open a DCR. If you want to look at a DCR, either drag it onto a browser window, or inside Director you can type this in the Message Window:
w = new window("")
open w
Then point to the DCR you want to look at.

    Apple keeps books for a short time (used to be 40 days. I've not seen a recent time frame)
    What version did you have?
    Books do nor exist except in the iPhoto database so you can not "find" a book vista TM. You restore a previous library (be sure NOT to overwrite your current library) and switch to it

  • Sony NEW RX10 & iPhoto Cant open RAW files

    Hey Guys, I know that not ALL RAW files are equal! I just picked up a NEW SONY RX10 and its shooting RAW files in Sony's ARW format.. I see that the NEW a7's are updated in OSX updates, Im assuming that the a7's and the New RX10 are the same ARW format, but I cant open these files in Preview and Iphoto wont see them either! Im using OSX 10.8.5 (ML) and Iphoto 11 (9.4.3) (720.91) Is anyone else having this issue with a RX10 or newer Sony camera with ARW files... Please reply! I really would like to shoot in RAW and use iPhoto to edit! I guess not ALL SONY .ARW are equal????

    Im assuming that the a7's and the New RX10 are the same ARW format,
    There you go - that is an incorrect assumption (as most assumptions are - as you know when you assume you make an ***ume out of ***ume & assume) - every RAW format for every camera is different and requires specific support for tha tcamera - notice in the support list that many different cameras in the same family are listed seperatly
    Usually Apple releases Sony RAW support pretty quickly since Sony is a major manfactuer of consumer and professional cameras
    Tell Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
    The Sony software that came with the camera may help (although my experiance is that Sony has poor to non-existance support for Macs) and possible the Adobe RAW converter can help until Apple releases the required update
    And it is very possible that the update will only apply to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5.x so it is possible that you will have to upgrade your OS and iPhoto (both free) - when you do be sure to backup first
    The current Mavericks list is at http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5955

  • Photoshop cs3 cant open CR2 files

    i cant open CR2 files in photoshop cs3 ( nope in bridge cs3)
    please tell me what should i do or download?
    thank you

    Troubleshooting 101: What OS? What camera? What version of Camera Raw do you have installed?
    Odds are you either need to update Camera Rae to 4.6 (the last for CS3) or download the DNG Convertor 5.4 to convert recent (as in the latest Rebel or 5D M3's).
    A place to stop regarding compatibility would be the Camera Raw product page and if you had bothered to mention your OS we could point you to downloads as well.

    Subject: cant open xmp files in photoshop element 8
    An xmp file is not an image. Usually those are the files containing the settings used for raw conversion, any metadata keywords, and other data that PS/PSE can't write to the files themselves. If those really are all the files on your disc, contact the photographer, because it sounds like someone made a mistake.

  • I cant open raw files in my cannon 7d

    i have a cannon 7D cant open raw files in elements 11

    Here are what versions of Camera Raw support what models of cameras:
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Here are what versions of Adobe software use what versions of Camera Raw:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
    Cross-referencing these two lists, it would appear that the PSE11 updated to its maximum ACR version of 8.0 will read DMC-G5 raws, and XZ2 raws, but not 70D raws, which you'll need PSE12 updated to ACR 8.3 to work with.
    What version of ACR do you have for your PSE11?  Use Help / About Plug-ins / Camera Raw to find out.

  • Still cant open embedded files with Adobe Reader 10.0.1

    Hi!
    In the first version of Adobe Reader X you had to disable the Protection Mode in order to open PDF-files on a network drive or that are embedded in a i.e Word document.
    I have now upgraded my version to 10.0.1.
    The first issue seems to be solved (open files on a network drive). But I still cant open PDF files embedded in another file??
    I get the error message: The Program used to create this object is AcroExch. That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding. To edit this object, install AcroExch or ensure that any dialog boxes in AcroExch are closed.
    And if I try to embedd a PDF-file myself into a document I get the same result.
    As soon as I turn of the Protection Mode it works...
    Is there a way to keep the PM on and still be able to open documents???
    Regards Daniel

    I'm not sure why Adobe hasn't looked into this.  One description elsewhere in the forum seems to suggest that if the computer has had older versions of the reader installed, it will work -- somehow the embedded file needs an older registry key.  I have yet to try installing older versions of reader onto my machine.  This machine has only had reader 10 installed on it.
    I tried the recommendation that is given in another thread.  Turn off running reader in protected mode.  The first time I did it, it didn't work.  The second time I unchecked the "use in protected mode" box, I closed and then reopened reader.  Now I can open embedded pdfs in word.

  • Cant open a file made with older aftereffects

    i just downloaded this file from the internet it is a aftereffects template. i downloaded the aep file and tried opening with AE cs6. it said that it cant open cuz its made with a old version of AE. I am pretty sure that it should have backwards compatibility, i mean i would understand if CS4 cant open CS6 file. but if CS6 cant open CS4 file that's weird, and i am really confused.

    Are you sure the file is CS4 and not AE4. CS6, according to the documentation CS6 can open AE7 and newer files.
    The file could also be corrupted.

  • Cant open ANY file with Pages 3.0.2 (iWork'08)

    I cant open any file, not even a blank document. When I try to start a new document, I get the message:"The template “Blank.template” could not be opened."  This happens with ALL templates (obviously the name of the template changes to that being tried to open).
    Interesting enough is that Pages do not crash, as the menu bar on top is available.
    Trying to open an existing document doesn't work also, as after selecting it and clicking OK, the browsing window closes but the file does not open.
    This only happens with my account (administrator level). I've tried deleting the "com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist" file from MyAccount/library/preferences (moving it to Trash) but still the same.
    Please HELP   My operating system is 10.5.6
    Regards
    Arturo Trevino

    In your own account, the unique preferences file directly related to Pages is:
    <startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Pages.pl ist
    There is no reason to remove any other one.
    But, before removing it, go to the Preferences menu item to check which is defined as the default template in your own preferences.
    I am tired so I will switch off soon.
    I will be back to-morrow.

  • Cant open Keynote file after reinstall Keynote.

    Cant open Keynote file after reinstall Keynote.
    File there: https://yadi.sk/d/Alxao3sydmdLQ
    What the problem? Who can help me?

    Tested your file and it is corrupt.
    My only suggestion is to find a backup copy of the file as Keynote files have the reputation of being unrecoverable once they become corrupt.

  • Cant open .xib file in xcode solve...

    thanks

    Apropos Rick's messages, the IB error you reported is most often caused by an installation or version problem. This often happens when a new SDK is installed over an older SDK, and is often fixed by removing as much of the previous SDK as possible before re-installing the new one. If you search on the text of your error message in this forum and/or Google, you'll find lots of advice on how to clean your system before installing a new SDK.
    Here's another link you should look at: [http://lists.apple.com/archives/Xcode-users/2009/Jan/msg00084.html].
    I'm also wondering what book you have. You said your book was titled "Beginning ipod development". I can't find that title on the net, so you probably didn't type the exact title. However if that is indeed to title of your book, it might be too old. So if the book came with a CD, you could have some xib files that are too old for your SDK.
    If the above doesn't apply to you, then take Rick's suggestion and get the latest SDK from the iPhone Dev Center. Then you'll need to clean your system to get rid of the previous SDK. Do this even if the previous SDK is the same one you just downloaded, because that's the best way to fix a bad installation. You should also consult the other posts on this subject that discuss permission problems. For example I think you could get IB to fail by installing as one user and then opening IB as another user.
    In any case, if you re-install, there's one step you must never omit: Rename your /Developer folder (e.g. to /OldDev).
    Hope that helps!
