Could not complete the ... command because of a problem with the filter module interface

I just reinstalled Photoshop CS6. I'm running OS X 10.8.2 .
I use the Nik plugins suite, and reinstalled them as well. Now whenever I try to use one of those plugins I get the error "Could not complete the ... command because of a problem with the filter module interface."
The reinstallation was a bit of a struggle due to issues on Adobe's end, and I am hesitatnt to just dive in and reinstall without wome idea as to what might cause these errors.
Any insight appreciated.

Not sure I know what you mean by "disabling the Nik filter folder".
I have the latest updates for the Nik filters and they are compatible with CS6.
Since yesterday I tried uninstalling the Nik filters, manually locating and removing every file related to Nik/Nik Software, redownloading the Nik installers, uninstalling/reinstalling Photoshop, and reinstalling the Nik filters. Same result.
I am pretty sure this is something on the Photoshop end, but am not sure what to do next. Maybe repeat the above and use the Creative Suite cleaner before reinstalling?

Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Color Engine

Hi all
This bizarrely started this morning - completely out of the blue - and I've no idea why.
Setup: Mac 10.8.2 / Creative Suite Premium PhotoShop CS5 extended (patched to 12.04)
Am working on images exported from LightRoom 4 (16bit A3 Pro Photo RGB PSDs) in PhotoShop CS5.
As part of my image grading process I have a PhotoShop Action that does the following: copy layer to new document (document respects all of copied layer settings) > Image > Adjustments > HDR toning > apply a certain HDR preset > copy to resultant image back to original doc > set opacity as 40%.
Totally out of the blue, after having this action for about 2 months, this morning I start getting a warning dialog of "Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Color Engine" and the action fails. The failure seems to take place at the 'make document' part of the action and seems to somehow be related to the contents of the clipboard.
I've tried trashing and re-creating the action. It works first time out fine and then - on the next image - errors again.
At present I can only safely carry out the work 'manually' by completing all the actions myself.
I can think of no settings that have changed and the OS hasn't been updated in a while.
I have found one other thread on a similar problem in PhotoShop Elements, but no definitive solution.
Any help appreciated as I have a shedload of stuff to process.
Best wishes
TP

OK: trash of prefs didn't work. Tried thrice. Re-created orig action. same problem.
BUT!
Your 'Image > Duplicate' suggestion does seem to work. If I use that in a new action as the method for creating the HDR version doc (instead of 'Select > Copy > New > Paste), it seems to work.
Will try that out this afternoon, but for now: WIN!
Many thanks for the suggestion!

Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Colour Engine??

When I am playing back a set of recorded actions, I receive a message that says "Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Colour Engine". This occurs after I copy a part of an image to paste it onto a new file. It occurs during the "Make" part(making a new file) and I was just wondering how to fix it.

It's a known (but esoteric) bug in Photoshop CS5 and earlier, seen with grayscale images. It used to crash utterly, but after I reported it I think they patched Photoshop 12.0.something to avoid the crash. However, the step still fails when you make a new grayscale image in an action.
I saw it because I created an action to paste the clipboard into new document, all in one motion. It virtually always works as long as I have a colored image in the clipboard. But not grayscale.
One workaround, which is not particularly convenient, is to turn on prompting for the Make new image step. I haven't used this workaround for a while, but it used to be that if you confirmed the "File New" operation manually it would continue and work. I don't know if the workaround is still valid.

Could not complete your request because Photoshop Elements cannot recognize the file extension. (-25600)

im trying to add a water mark to multiple photos but I keep getting Could not complete your request because Photoshop Elements cannot recognize the file extension. (-25600) error. how do I fix this?

If you open up editor then expert mode then you click file and the it's manage multiple or something like that. It will pull up a box asking you where you would like to get the photos from. I picked a folder where I just edited the skin tone and then saved it. I'm thinking it has something to do with the way the files save but I'm not sure how to get it to change. But after the box comes up you can add a water mark to all the photos in the folder. I found the video of how to do it on here.

When trying to write a text on a photo I get this as soon as I draw the textbox"Could not complete your request because of an problem error" then "An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred. Photoshop Elements will now exit."

After updating my macbook to Maverick, PS 7 I had for years stop working. I then download the Elements 12. It has been a few weeks and I can't do anything on it.

Could not install 10.5.3 for ipod -- Problem with the windows installer

"There is a problem with the Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personel or package vendor."
What program needs to run?
Apple has 68 billion dollars in the bank and they can't get a program running?

It's more like your computer can't get it running.
What have you tried to do to troubleshoot the problem? By the way, it might be more helpful to post this in the iTunes forum since it's related to the iTunes application as this forum is for the iPod Classic.

Could not complete Save command because there is not enough memory (RAM).

So yeah. Recently I keep facing this problem when I am using my PSCS5. It happens randomly, be it on single-layered work or multi-layered ones.
I can't do anything because when this happens... yeah, I lose my work for sure - I can close every program except PS but it is still like this. In fact it just happened again, which prompted me to put this up.
I took a screenshot although I think it is not needed. Basically this error occurs. And it doesn't... tell me what to do.
The thing is, I am on Win7, 3GB usable. Based on my task manager I have only used 1.91GB of memory - there's a whole 1 GB more unused, yet I get this error. CPU usage is at a sweet 1~5%.
So... any advice on what I am supposed to do? >< Thanks all.

Though most of my experience is with Photoshop on my 64 bit system, I do do some testing on Windows 7 32 bit, and frankly I'm not finding problems with cranking the Photoshop RAM use even all the way up. I do this sometimes because my own plug-ins use malloc() and free(), not Photoshop's buffer suite, in some places and I need to see how they behave when Photoshop's got all the RAM for itself.
Thing is, Photoshop really CAN'T grab all the RAM for itself on a 3 GB 32 bit system... It can only glom on to up to only 2 GB in the normal case, so I really, really doubt that having your RAM setting up to (only) 75% is a problem.
Common lore about how to manage Photoshop's memory use is somewhat based on past experience with different operating systems, and that's simply been changed some with the modern Windows systems.
But I hope that the change does help you. Maybe just that it's different will be helpful, in that it will move things around.

Could not complete import command.

Hello,
I get an error message that says "Could not complete import command because of a problem with the acquistion interface." I've commented out all of my code and even the code inside of the main entry point and still get this error. What causes this problem? Thank you.

Could be a bad PiPL description, could be that you aren't returning the right value for success in your code, etc.
Go back to the example code that you know works, then work forward to your code and test it at each step.

Nik Software Crash: "Could not complete the Color Efex Pro 4 command because of a problem with-"

Nik Software/Photoshop Crash: "Could not complete the Color Efex Pro 4 command because of a problem with the filter module interface." Define, Viveza work fine, the others, Color Efex, HDR Efex, Silver Efex don't. I called Nik and they said they were familiar with this problem and that it was an Adobe problem. They helped me uninstall and re-install the latest version of the filters. Didn't fix the problem. I called Adobe technical support, they confirmed that indeed it was an Adobe problem, but, they can't help me because they no longer offer support on CS5. I'm on an iMac with Mountian Lion 10.8.5, running Photoshop CS5.1. I searched the internet and found this problem mentioned in several places, just couldn't find the fix. Interesting coincidence - I had been using Photoshop and the Nik software perfectly fine, even the morning of the day it began to crash. I got a pop-up message from Adobe asking if they could anonymously monitor my usage to better their products. I clicked on "Ask me later." Then, my product crashed every time I tried to use the above-mentioned Nik software filters. ??? Why would they want to monitor my usage of a product they won't/don't support anyway? Help someone please - I really love the Nik software. I paid top dollar for it back in the day because people like Dan Hughes actually answered your questions themselves. The customer support was the best in the industry. The opposite is true of Adobe, is it not?

Thank you so much Chris. I know I'm not the only person to run into this as both Nik/Google and Adobe acknowledged this problem. I did however try something else to try and isolate the issue further. I tried editing with Nik/Google Color Efex & Silver Efex, etc., in Aperture, and sure enough, the Nik/Google filters wouldn't open, or they would crash Aperture. So - it's looking like a Nik/Google problem. They used to be so good. The crazy thing is that I had been using Photoshop with the Nik filters just fine, even earlier that very day. What could have gone wrong? Was there some kind of automatic update Saturday 3/1/14? And it was especially weird that it happened immediately after I refused to allow Adobe to (anonymously) monitor my usage. I'll call Nik/Google back tomorrow and tell them what you've told me, as well as letting them know their filters crashed Aperture too. I'll report back as soon as I find a fix. I know I'm not the only one out there who's experienced this.
Thanks again!

PS CS3: "could not complete your request because of a program error"

Hi,
I am using Photoshop CS3 on Windows XP Pro (Upgraded from PS v7.0 a few months ago) on about 10% of my images I'm getting an the error:
"could not complete your request because of a program error"
when trying to save the file after doing changes to it. Oddly enough I do NOT get the error when doing "Save As" even after the recieving the error on a save. Nor do I get the error if I open one of the affected files in PS v7.
I believe from searching on line that the problem is "something to do" with the format of the metadata in the images. I am not sure exactly what, nor am I sure why it only affects about 10% of my images - all of which have been processed, captioned and keyworded the same way. However it is noticable that I cannot open "File info" dialog box in PS CS3 for any image that won't save. The error given is: "Could not complete the File Info command because of a problem with the File Info module"
Oddly, I CAN open the same File Info dialog box in Bridge CS3, I can change metadata via Bridge but then even after doing that the problems still exist when the image is opened in Photoshop.
At the moment, the ONLY work round I have is for each effected image, open it, do a "save as" - to save it under a different name delete the original image and then rename the image back to it's original name to ensure that my DAM can still locate the image.
I am a professional photographer with over 25,000 PSD files. As you can imagine it is impractical to manually open every image to see is affected. Can anyone think on any automated method to locate which images have the problem?
Does anyone have a fix to this problem? The workround above has one MAJOR drawback. Like most/all DAM users I locate and open my images from within my DAM (IMatch in my case). If I use the save-as/delete/rename method while the DAM is open I lose the data records associated with the image in the DAM. (The data is lost when the original image is deleted).
Any help would be appreciated. This is becoming a MAJOR problem for me.
Thanks,

Hi Rob,
I've uploaded one of the images to my server....
http://www.iphotos.co.uk/downloads/tmp/FA0309A-E02305.zip (30Mb download).
I wouldn't say that the "image" is corrupt - the "image" is fine and in fact "Save As" to a new filename corrects the problem altogether. What I would say is that PS CS3 isn't handling the metadata in some of my images correctly. I use a lot of different programs to view/edit/update both image and metadata. PS CS3 is ONLY program I have found that has any problem with the files.
I only have two makes of camera Canon 5D and 10D. I can't say for certain whether it affects 10D files as the vast majoity of images I'm working on are from my 5D. What I can say however that not all images from a given shoot with the 5D will be affected - only a small proportion of them.
Anyhow, please download the zip file and extract the PSD to a suitable location. Then open the image in PS CS3 from that location. Make a minor edit to the image and you will see that PS CS3 can't save the file. Quit. Open the image again and select "File | File Info" and you will see the other error message. If you open the file and do "save as" to a new filename and repeat the above step everything works as it should.
If this was just a single file that I was having problems with I'd put up with the work round of "Save as" to correct the problem. But with 25,000+ PSD files and at a guess a random 10% of my files being affected you can imagine how frustraiting this is.
Thanks,
Ian.
