CS6 error "file is not compatible"

windows 7 x64
photoshop CS6 beta
how i can recover it?
and why had error?
damaged file

The last 3/4 of the file is missing - mostly replaced with zeros.
Could be a disk error, could be interference from another application (we've seen some third party plugins mangle files like that: especially font managers).
The contents are gone. Your best bet it to use your backups.

Save with Maximize Compatibility in CS6.
Choose Edit > Preferences > File Handling (Windows) or Photoshop > Preferences > File Handling (Mac OS).
From the Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility menu, choose any of the following:
Always
Then re-save your file so it can open in CS2

TS3694 When trying to update or restore my Iphone I get an error message saying...could not be restored because firmware file is not compatible. What is this and how can it be resolved?

When trying to restore or update my Iphone 4 it errors out with message:..."could not be restored because the firmware file is not compatible." How do I resolve this?

Ask him if he has 'jailbroken' the ipod touch. Some jailbreaking firmware resets it to Ipad firmware and so it is very difficult to restore as itunes simply doesnt recognise it for what it is. It's Apple's solution to try and stop mass jailbreaking.

How do I resolve: "Could not complete the Crop command because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop" error message?

Photoshop document created in current version of PSCC2014, now will not crop, resize, etc without throwing compatibility error.
"Could not complete the Crop command because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop."
How do I resolve without recreating the file?

Ooops. Hit save reply prematurely.
You may be able to open the flattened composite or the embedded JPEG preview of your file in Adobe Illustrator, GraphicConverter (Mac only) or some such application, but your layers will be gone.
The problem of working across a network is that it's not supported by Adobe:
This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work. It should.
Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

File is not compatible with this version of Photoshop error

Computer crashed yesterday and now I am getting "File is not compatible with this version of Photoshop" error and unable to opening in PS CS5 or Fireworks CS5. Any ideas? Also tried the PS repair download and would rather not pay $30 to find out it can't do it. Seems like a common error but in all of the forums I haven't found a solid answer. Appreciate some real advise.
Thanks in advance

This is the free app that all the PSD repair hacks are based on: Telegraphics - Free plugins for Photoshop & Illustrator...and other software
There are 3 possible reasons for that error: file corruption on disk, more than 8000 layers in the file, or a layer somehow went over 30,000 pixels in a PSD file (which would be legal in PSB, but not in PSD).

Firefox was working, today did not start with error message the the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you're running.

Computer has Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. Firefox has run fine for over a year on this computer. Nothing was changed or updated except Windows update shows that it installed updates on Aug 19. I had computer off for week before because out of town, came back and started on Aug 18, but Firefox worked on that day. Did not use FF again till today. Today on Aug 22nd, firefox will not start, shortcut icon has changed to program not there. Exe in folder when clicked brings up error message say the version of this file is not compatible with version of Windows I am running. Firefox exe shows created Aug 20. I suspect update, either Windows or FF but lean towards windows, happened that broke things. I notice IE 10 updates, .NET framework updates and malicious software removal tool updates were installed. I have tried restarting computer, did not fix. Tried to run as admin, didn't work. I do not want to uninstall FF unless have to because of all the stuff I have in there, bookmarks, last pass passwords, etc.

Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files ('''not the profile folder where the bookmarks are stored''') and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

CS5 file is not compatible error

"Cannot complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop"
Hi, I'm sick of my computer problems...
So I'm trying to make an animation, I'm using about 4 or more video layers in order to do so, and I noticed this issue.
I save my file, and then try to reopen it and it gives me this error.
Why? Should this not be fixed? Or how can I fix it? I would really appreciate it because I have a deadline ^_^
I also tested it, I tried remaking the same thing, saved it as a different file name and kept the same one open, I try to open the saved file into photoshop and gives me the same issue.
- I also checked my HDD with checkdisk, no errors, what do you know
- I can also see the image clearly in Adobe Bridge, hello file I can't open.
- I tried to open the file on CS4 32-bit on my other computer, and guess what, it works fine and opened fine without issue. Why?
I'm using WIndows 7
Photoshop CS5 Extended
I work in the 32bit version, but I have both versions installed (32 and 64 bit) I feel more comfortable working in 32 bit, the files will not open in64 bit either.
If there's a way to fix this stupid issue, let me know thank you very much.

1) Make sure you installed all the updates for Photoshop CS5. The current version is 12.0.4.
My guess is that you are still on 12.0.0.
2) Check your disk for problems/corruption.

HT201210 the download of updates has an error at the end that my firmwear file is not compatible?

An error appears when trying to download my iphone the my firmware file is not compatible?
What does this mean?

Delete it? My iPhone was connected to my laptop, and I said Download and Install (or whatever) from iTunes. It downloaded it, then announced the firmware version was wrong... so I know of no intermediate file to delete. I just tried it again, hitting the Download Only button, but I see absolutely no indication of where that file would be stored, or, now that it is (supposedly) downloaded, how I would go about installing it. Thanks for your suggestion, though.

Error message: File is not compatible with this version of Photoshop

When I try and reopen a psd file I have created, I get the message "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop"
Used to get this on occasional files using CS2, have now started getting it on CS3 files. The only way to get round it is to redo the work!
Am using Photoshop CS3, V.10 on a G5, OSX 10.4.11. Which is connected to a PC network.

Ran into the same message on files created by one of our designers. His computer needed a "cleansing" to stop corrupting files. Files were actually being corrupted locally, so it wasn't only a server issue...at least in our case. One thing that we did that "sort of" worked...we transferred the file to a PC and ran a shareware utility that repairs PSDs (Advanced PSD Repair Software). It said it repaired the file successfully, BUT it separated the files into a couple of hundred individual documents. Each layer and layer mask was a separate file. I didn't see any setting to recover as a composed file so I guess this is just how it works. If your file is not heavily layered and complex, I guess this might work for you, but, like I told the designer, I ain't goin' in there and reconstructing your layers. =) I know this doesn't help if you don't have access to a PC with Photoshop loaded in it, but thought this might help some poor soul along the way. Good luck...

Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of photoshop

Hello,
I'm a beginner in PS. I was edit TIFF file in PS. Size of file is 21x89.1(22.6 MB). Then suddenly power - cuted. But after 5 min turn on PC and PS can't open my TIFF file.
Error is (could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of photoshop)
What should I do, how I open this TIFF file? I realy need to open this file?
Please help me...
Regards, Suvd.S

Out of curiosity, were you actually saving the file at the moment the power cut off, or had you just saved it?
If not, I don't understand the reason the file should have become corrupted. If it was successfully saved on disk from the prior save operation, just shutting off the power on Photoshop would lose your current edits, but the file should still be intact.

When trying to install ITunes I get: The version of this file is not compatible...

I've been trying to install a new version of ITunes on my computer for over a month now with no luck. Here's the message I get every time: "The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32bit) or 64 (64 bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher."
I had the previous version of ITunes on my system and it was working fine, except that is was having an issue with my DVD burner. It was a real bear to remove from my computer in order to upgrade. Now I can't get any version of ITunes to install. :-(
I am running an AMD Phenom IIX4 965 Processor, 64-bit Operating System. The original computer OS was Windows XP Professional 32-bit. I upgraded to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit over a year ago and didn't have any trouble with it until this last attempted update. Help!

I have the exact same problem as well. I've been having this since I tried installing the 3.0 drivers for Bootcamp drivers. The 2.2 drivers worked perfect, and I wasn't getting this error. I'm pretty sure It's something in the drivers as well, but nailing it would be very hard. It also doesn't appear to happen to everyone with similar spec'd Macs either. It's weird. Any solution to this would be really helpful. Thanks.

CS5: Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photosh

After several hours creating a PSD file in Photoshop CS5 I attempted to revert some changes and got this error "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop".
I closed the file and restarted Photoshop and still get this error.
I restarted the computer and still get this error. Now my hours of work are WASTED!
This file was created using Photoshop CS5 Extended and was never in any other software.
Details:
Mac Photoshop CS5 (12.0 running in 32 bit mode)
File had a video layer (h.264)
MaxBook Pro 2.8Ghz
OSX 10.6.3

I was able to open the file in Photoshop CS2 and all layers were intact. PS CS2 gave me the message: "A layer is corrupt and will be discarded." Turns out that was the video layer. The file itself was fine and I am again working on it in PS CS5.
Which leads me to ask: If a video layer gets corrupted why can't PS CS5 open it?
PS CS2 had no problem opening the file, it just flatteded the video layer - it even kept the current key frame.
Additional info: Just before the file went bad I made a level adjustment to the video layer and set a keyframe in the animation panel. Then I saved and got the error "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photosh' in Photoshop Macintosh". Also the source H.264 video file appears to be fine, it's only a 5 second clip and it play fine in every app - even PS CS5.
