CS6 is not letting me open any of my files! Please Help!!

Trying to open my files and it is saying it is an invalid format. Worked last night just fine and all of a sudden stopped! Please help!!!

So you saved them directly to the external drive?
Illustrator does not particularly like that.
You could try and first copy the files to your harddrive and then open them.
But you could also search this forum for Jacobs list on recovering corrupt files. Your issues don't sound too good.

  • I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
    Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
    Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
    If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
    Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

  • Since updating my imac 27" it will not let me open any of my programs and is saying to reinstall all, cant even get into safari. please help!!

    Since updating my Imac 27" 8 month old computer it will not let me open up any programs including safiri and iphoto. it is pretty much saying that i need to install all the program again, which i can not afford nor have the time too. can someone please help me be able to get it back to the way it was or help me to fix it so i can keep using it with this software update

    For starters, you could boot from the OS X install DVD that came with your iMac (insert the disk, reboot and hold down the "C" key after the bong). On that disk is Disk Utility; run that, choose the iMac's hard disk, and run Repair Disk. If errors are found and repaired, try running it again until it's deemed OK.
    If that doesn't help, try to get the OS 10.6.8 combo updater from Apple and run that. It will replace a lot of the Apple software that's already on your iMac and may refresh things so that they'll work.

  • I can´t open any page document. Please help

    i can´t open any page document. Please help

    You do need to give more information. What version of Pages, what version of OS X, have you ever been able to open Pages documents, have you made any changes to your Mac? Please be specific with versions, don't just say "I have the latest." Our crystal balls don't work over the internet.

  • I saved my file as a regular Indesign file, and when I went to open it on a different computer it had a lock on it and will not let me open it. Can someone please explain why this is happening and how to unlock it? It's for a very important and urgent pro

    Please help if you can!

    Assuming the file is stored on a network server, and the "other computer" is on that network as well; with InDesign not running on either, navigate to the folder where the InDesign file is stored and find the lock file (it will have the extension .idlk). Delete it.

  • Firefox 3.6.13 will not let me add any extentions. Can you help me fix it?

    I installed Firefox 4 beta and alot of my add ons were not compatible so I went back to Firefox 3.6.13. But my add ons were not there either. I went to the add on extensions in the tools menu and tried to uninstall the extensions that I wanted to put back on my firefox then I tried to reinstall them and got the message Firefox could not install the file at https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/3456/addon-3456-latest.xpi?src=addondetail because: Unexpected installation error Review the Error Console log for more details. -203. I went to the Error Console log but couldn't make heads or tails of it. Please help me.

    Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button (in Firefox 4: right-click the extension -> "Find Updates") to do a compatibility check.

  • IPod shows as camera and will not let me use as disk space. Please Help!!

    Okay, so i know that this has probably been asked before, but every similar question i read was a little different from my specific problem. Maybe someone on here can help me. :)) *crosses fingers*
    I've had my iPod Touch since summer, and I just got a new laptop for Christmas. So I want to transfer my iTunes over to my new computer, of course. I read the tutorial on Apple Support, but when I went to drag my Library over to my iPod, it was showing up in My Computer as a camera, and will not let me use it as disk space. I've also followed the steps to stop the automatic Camera pop-up when I plug in my iPod. Yes, my iPod is set up on manual, so disk use SHOULD be enabled, correct? I am positive that I also have the latest iTunes software. AND my USB ports are up to date.
    Sorry for the overly-thorough problem description, but I have read too many of the similar posts, and I know all the usual suggestions. But seriously, any help is appreciated. Thanks guys.
    -Happy New Year

    Hi,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Sorry to say that you cannot use an iPod Touch as an "external" drive, unlike the "Classic" etc. which I believe have this feature.
    To transfer your library you will have to back it up to disc(s), a different type of HD or use a network to send the files over.
    Good luck,
    Dud.

  • I can't open any Danish web sites - PLEASE HELP !!

    It's very weird, since yesterday haven't been able to open any Danish web sites.
    As soon as it ends with .dk it won't open the page. And seeing that my web site ends with .dk I can't get my personal e-mail to my mail program either.
    This is not only Firefox. It's all my browsers.
    I'm on an iBook G3.
    I cleared cashes - cookies etc. Nothing's working. And I've been able to open all the websites from other computers, so the problem must be coming from mine.
    PLEASE HELP !!

    I'm definately no network specialist, just heared an emergency call ..
    my guess, try...:
    system prefs/network...
    select your network settings, click on "TCP/IP" ...
    paste into DNS Server (any or all...)
    213.191.74.19
    213.191.92.87
    131.234.39.10
    131.234.39.11
    131.234.137.23
    131.234.137.24
    195.8.224.1
    195.8.224.1
    these are some German DNS servers, which allow (me...) to access any, even Danish websites ...
    I'm pretty sure, there're lots of Danish DNS Server, which works faster/more reliable, but just give it a try, how it works...........
    unfortunately, I don't have the IPs of any danish DNS... as said, me no specialist, I just know, "these works"

  • How do you open the downloads that have been saved? I can make it to the download list but it will not let me open any of them.

    When I open an email with an attachment, it downloads the attachment and saves it to my downloads. At a later time, I return to the download list and try to open it and it will not allow me to open them. How do I open my saved downloads?

    If the Open or Open Containing Folder entry in the right-click context menu of a file in the Download Manager is grayed then that means that the file is no longer in that original download location. It may have been removed by cleanup software or anti-virus software if you haven't deleted the files yourself.

  • Photoshopcs5(trial) not letting me open any pictures?

    when ever i go to edit an image or pull one into photoshop it comes up with that image? does anyone know why?? or  can anyone help?!

    Boilerplate-text:
    Are Photoshop and OS fully updated?
    As with all unexplainable Photoshop-problems you might try trashing the prefs (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed) by pressing command-alt-shift on starting the program or starting from a new user-account.

    Since the iPod has been disabled from entering the passcode incorrect too many times then you will need to restore it to factory settings in recovery as shown in the article below:

  • My mac book pro just stopped allowing sound and when i restarted it, it does not let me use any of the icons on the desktop, then allows me to use them after 3 minutes,and then still NO SOUND! What do i do? PLEASE help.

    I have an issue with my computer.  the volume was working fine on wednesday june 29th 2011 (thats the last I could remember) and today is july 3rd 2011.  so when I start the computer up it does not let me play anything trough the iTunes volume when I start a song it goes immediately to pause but no sound comes out.  When I click on the volume in the menu bar it does not allow me to raise the volume up, nor does it allow me to play volume through my speakers when I am on youtube.com. AND when I go to system preferences it has checked off that it is on mute, BUT  it is a light gray color and it does not let me check the setting off.  please help! what do I do? I think it is still under warranty because it is only between 11 months-12 months old.
    *******************************************************ANY ADVICE WOULD BE APPRECIATED THANKK YOU!*************************************************************

    That you are getting the BONG is a good sign, it's unlikely to be hardware if you are able to hear that.
    Start by running SW update. It's not that there is a specific fix, but when updating it may rewrite some system files which may get this going again purely as a side affect. Worth a go, and should not harm the system.
    Try reset the PRAM - Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    Hopefully one of these quick fixes works, otherwise we'll need to try isolate the issue next - so if still having a problem, I'd try create a new user and login as that user to see if the issue persists (which will tell us if it's system wide or user specific)
