CS4--Cannot Open JPGs directly into PS

I'm using Vista 32. After updating to CS4 I can no longer open jpg files directly into PS by clicking on the file in windows explorer or an e-mail. After much searching and looking for file associations, I was able to get jpgs to open into Bridge from windows explorer, but still cannot get them to open directly in PS. When I attempt to open a jpg from an e-mail message, I get a window in Bridge pointed to a temp folder. I did not have this problem with CS3, but am really at a loss for a fix. Anyway know what to do???
TIA,
Fran

Thank you to all for suggestions. I am posting the solution in case other people run into the same problem. This is a registry issue. Run CCleaner until there are no problems to fix. You will then be able to use "open with" to associate both the psd and jpg files with CS4. At least, it worked for me.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • After Effect cs4 cannot render jpg on network on mac but render locally okay

    After Effect cs4 cannot render jpg on network on mac but render locally okay
    We use intel mac pro as workstation, and our servers are windows 2003 servers.
    After Effect cs4 H264 render  on network without any problem bud jpeg not.
    Thank You
    Ayhan.

    Perhaps you must just enable the Allow Encoding using Legacy CoDecs option in the Quicktime control panel on the network machine or else some of that may not show up. Of course make sure QT is installed correctly in teh first place, as Todd and Rick said. On a server, you may need to set special group policies for that to work, also.

  • Opening JPG directly in Photoshop, passing Camera Raw

    Hi! I would like to open JPGs that were edited in Camera Raw directly in Photoshop and I saw in this video from Russel Brown how I could do this. Only, he is using Bridge CS3 in the video and I am using CS4. The thing is that I don't have "Always open JPEG files with setting using Camera Raw", instead I have a dropdown with: "Disable JPEG support", "Automatically open JPEG with settings" and "Automatically open all supported JPEG". I tried these options but they don't help.
    Menu options in the video
    The menu options that are available to me
    Do you have any solutions?
    Thank you,
    Victor

    I just realised that setting to "Disable JPEG support" bypasses Camera Raw, but it has to be done to every file individually, and in that video from Russel Brown he just set an option and every JPEG opened in Photoshop bypassed Camera Raw. Do you know if this feature can be set in CS4 too?
    Thank you,
    Victor

  • In CS4, "Cannot open file" "Please upgrade your plug-ins..."

    Greetings,
    I am using InDesign CS4 on a PC. I am trying to open an .indd file created by our marketing department. I don't know what version of InDesign they use nor whether they work on Macs or PCs.
    When I double-click to open the file, I get a "Cannot Open File" popup box. The box reads "Cannot open docname.indd. Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign." It then lists 18 different plugins:
    ASSIGNMENTS.RPLN
    TEXT.RPLN
    SPREAD.RPLN
    MASTER PAGE.RPLN
    TEXT ATTRIBUTES.RPLN
    .... and 13 more.
    When I go to Help > Configure Plug-Ins, I can see that I do have all of these plug-ins. But apparently they are not the latest versions.
    Anyone know how I can update these plugins? I have searched for them on the Adobe website, but no joy.
    Thanks in advance.
    Jen

    It's a safe bet that they are working in CS5. The only way to get those plugins is to install CS5 on your machine.
    You could ask your marketing department to export an IDML file from CS5, which you can open up in CS4, but it might fail horribly (and it's guaranteed to lay out incorrectly if they've used any tools in CS5 that aren't in CS4). If you rely on this workflow, by regularly using a document going back and forth between CS5 and CS4, chances are very, very good that it will fail at a critical moment. The only really safe thing to do here is to get everyone using the same version of InDesign.

  • Photoshop CS4 cannot open

    cannot open Photoshop cs4  Error message 148.3  Please help.  Thank you.

    Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Adobe Licensing forum, where you'll get more specialized help.
    Take a look at the help document that Alec posted above - if this does not solve your issue, please post in this thread again so that you can receive additional help.

  • CS4 cannot open CS4 file - upgrade plugins

    I HAVE searched the forum, but cannot find a real answer to this...
    I've been given an .indd file. It was created in CS4. I am attempting to open it with CS4.
    I get that message "Cannot open "name.indd". Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign"
    I have the latest upgrade of CS4, as does the author of the document. I see the plugins in the Plug-Ins folder.
    What do I need to do to be able to open this file? (Actually there are about 20 of these "unopenable" documents)
    Thanks!
    (I am new to InDesign. My company uses Quark.)

    OK. It's posted at:

  • 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.

  • InCopy CS4 and InDesign CS4 cannot open file at the same time!

    I have 2 editors that make changes in my indd file. The one editor is able to open the file concurrently with myself (i'm in indesign) just fine. But when the other editor wants to open the file....I cannot open the indd file and vice versa. We are PC based.
    shane

    Yes, we are all working on the same server.
    And Yes on the Editor A / scenario 1  (Designer opens file and Editor A opens file concurrently). works fine.
    Editor A closes out of Incopy and so does Designer. Editor B opens the file and Designer tries to open the indd file and now the designer gets the warning: Cannot open document. You may not have permission or the document may be open already. This is the same error if the Designer opens the file first and Editor B tries to open it while the designer has it open.
    Editor A and B are able to have the file open at the same time no problem.
    Also this happens to all indd files that Editor B tries to open. So it is not linked to a problem with the file.
    one other note: on the server just above the indd file...when Editor B has the indd open in InCopy... a 'temporary' Indesign Lock File appears.

  • Cannot open jpgs Preview will not shut down, color spinning wheel present

    Trying to open jpgs and all I get is the spinning color
    wheel. The files will not open.
    Preview will not shut down even with apple prompt
    of instructions on how to do so.
    First aid in the OS10 utilities has seemed to disappear, but its still there for OS9.
    I've been opening hundreds and hundreds of jpgs the last few weeks, printing and dumping duplicate images, etc...
    And now I get this.
    Ideas on how to clear this problem up? And ideas as to what the problem is?
    thx - Craig

    It sounds like it might be a good idea to run the disk utilities (applications/utilities/disk utility) and run the repair disk permissions. I have found that this often solves these oddball problems.
    Try completely restarting everything. Run preview before clicking on anything and try opening one of these items from the file menu. does it make a difference? If so, do "get info" on a jpeg image and see if preview is the default viewer for it. If not, that may be your problem. If you have another preferred application you may want to set all your jpegs to open in that application until you get preview straightened out. Best of luck!

  • I cannot open files directly from Lightroom 4 into Photoshop CS5.

    I recently changed to new Macbook Pro and uploaded my Lightroom 4 and Photoshop CS5.
    Now when I go to 'Photo - Edit in - Photoshop' in Lightroom 4. Photoshop opens. But no image appears.
    I've updated the Camera Raw reader but this hasn't helped.
    Anyone got a suggestion that might help?
    I have been making attempts to download updates for my Photoshop PS5 but after 4 attempts I get the same failed window asking me to try later.
    Anyone any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.

    It is important to understand how Lr works.
    Lr displays photos only when they are imported into Lr. A (seeming) exception is for a Raw image that is edited in Photoshop and <Saved> to the default settings that you selected in external editing of Preferences in Lr. So if the default setting is for PSD and you just hit <Save> in Photoshop, a PSD will be created and automatically imported back into Lr so that it will be displayed there. So, this is not really an exception from the rule that an image has to be imported into Lr - it is an automatic import. This automatic import works only for the <Save> to the default settings;it does not work when you do a <Save As> and select a different file format than the default setting. In your case you did a <Save as> to create a JPG. This JPG will not be automatically imported into Lr, you have to import it manually - either through the Import Dialog or by <Synchronize Folder>.
    Apart from that, and as JimHess said, why do you create a JPG in Photoshop from the same file? If you need a JPG, in Lr just export your PSD as a JPG when you need it.
    I often need JPGs from my file, but I create them only when needed by exporting them to a folder of my choice. Usually I delete them after a while. I don't see a reason why I should have JPGs sitting around on my hard drive(s). They can be created again (from the Raw files or from PSD's/Tiffs) if the need arises.
