DPP digital photo professional will not open images in folder

I have a number of subject folders of vintage photographs from my father and his father, pro's and published.  The images were scanned (Canon, of course!) and subsequently adjusted and manipulated for levels, cropping, and gray scale to eliminate yellow paper color, etc.
I have several folders that DPP will NOT open, just placeholders with a big X on it with the full file name.  I cannot see any reason some folders would load without issue, others don't .  There is no probablem with any other graphics program.  Oh, Windows 7. 
I really need to be able to have this work right for my business.  DPP is the only program I've found that will make excelletn contact sheets/index sheets that allows full control of the printer so I can custome set and do duplex printing.  Easy Photo Print also makes nice index sheets, but with absolutely no printer control or options.  Bzzzzzt.
Thanks, Paul

I didn't post it in Printer discussions, I believe I put it in Software.
 "Get something else."  Wow!  Want insight!  You mean like Nikon, Sony, or Panasonic?
 In fact, I DID already say that I "got something else," Xnview. 
It is indeed under the General Printer Discussion on my side of the site!    Check the top of the page.
Get something else meant software not brand. How did you draw that conclusion?
Unless you have me totally confused, it sounds like you want a file management program not a photo editing/ printing program.
DPP is photo editing/printing software designed to be used with Canon cameras and printers.  It will open those file types.  Mybe it will open others I don't use it that way since it is not it's purview.

    Hi MztengaM!
    Welcome to the Canon Forums, and thanks for your post. Canon USA does have a Flickr Group already established! It's called "Canon Imagination." While it does not focus solely on Digital Photo Professional, it is the one and only official Flickr Group for Canon USA. Feel free to join and contribute!

  • Mail, preview, photo booth, will not open

    After installing Leopard (on my 3rd attempt, clean install) mail, preview, and photo booth will not open at all. i'm opening them from the applications folder, not from the dock. i get an error message that says the programs unexpectedly quit. hopefully i don't have to do another installation. 3 is enough.
    i thought it was interesting that these 3 programs are in order alphabetically, and every other program has opened fine.
    any help/ideas would be great

    Welcome to Apple Discussions:
    You might check whether this is a preference corruption issue. For example, you can find the Mail preference file in [Username]/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    Drag this file to your desktop (so you don't lose it). Then try relaunching Mail. If that works, a similar process might fix your problem with the other applications, too.
    Please post back here if that helps. If it does, please mark this posting as having "Solved" your question. Thanks

  • Photo Booth will not open.  My camera works well with other apps.

    Photo Booth will not open.  My camera works well with other apps. 

    try running it in either 32 or 64bit mode and see if this changes the experience. Locate the icon in Finder, right click "get-info" on it and see the checkmarks "run in 32bit mode" ..
    on Lion some users had trouble opeining pb when "iglasses" was installed, also a thing to check.
    Else repair permissions of the disk, using Apples disk utility app.

  • My Lightroom 3 closed after trying to edit a photo and will not open again.  Help please!

    My Lightroom 3 closed after editing a photo and will not open again.  It says Lightroom is not working and Windows is looking for a solution.  I am in a bind and need my Lightroom opened asap.  Please help!

    In your operating system, go to the folder where your Lightroom catalog is stored and see if there is a file that ends with .lock
    If so, delete it and then LR will open properly.

  • MY Photo Editor will not open.

  • Edit photo in LR5 not opening image with LR edits in PSCC

    I've been using the edit photo in PS option from LR2 all the way through to LR4 with no issues, and now since upgrading to LR5 and PSCC my images will not open in PSCC with the edits Ive done in LR5.  Its beyond frustrating.
    Can anyone suggest any tips?  I have reset warnigs in the preferences, played with the external editing options, but so far nothing has helped.  

    Under the "Additional Enternal Editor" / Application you are probably pointing to "Adobe Photoshop Elements" instead of "Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor"   See here for more info

  • New iOS7 Photos app will not fit images to screen?

    Since upgrading to the latest ios7, what used to be a rather pleasant and relaxing experience, now is rather tedious and has actually forced me to put down my iPad.  I download a lot of graphic novels and before iOS7, I could read a whole page without having to tap the screen, etc.  Now, the pages are off the screen, so having to resize the image is an added step.  Why?!?!?!?  If it was a 1-10 pages, I think there wouldn't be a problem, but these files have 210 pages in average.  Any suggestions out there?...  I'm not looking to use any of these files as background or wallpapers, which most people have been complaining about.

    I have important photos on iPhoto and will only transfer photos from 2012 to Photos. Can you help me?
    How are you migrating from iPhoto to Photos?  And what exactly happens?
    When you first launch Photos, it will automatically open the default iPhoto Library in your Pictures folder.  If your main iPhoto Library is somewhere else, drag it to the Photos icon in the Dock to migrate that library to Photos.
    Where is your main iPhoto Library? Is it on an external drive - if yes, how is this drive connected?

  • My Adobe photo shop will not open

    All files,without prompting, come up missing.  Now adobe will not open because of missing files directs me to re install but I cannot do that it appears without buying back in.  We just erased the version once and downloaded again prompted by your tech but Now I am out and cannot get back in. Lost some very valuable images not replaceable.  Purchased the program Nov 23, 2012. Lots of trouble with it.  Would gladdly settle with my money returned but if not need to have the program work.  I am out a lot of money if I lose my images. My email is
    [email protected]

    Sorry I did not know you do not have techs is it more important to know
    that than why in hell your program loses images and now I cannot get
    back in.  I explained I tried to download but was directed to a window
    which payment plan I wanted one yr two years three years and the costs.
    So myh question is can you help me?  Someone representingt Adobe took
    over from Iyogi trying to help and took over the downloading but the
    downloading was not complete at first I could only access one have of
    the page of Adobe Photoshop element 11.  So do you have some advise for
    me or are you more concerned with the accuracy of my misdirected
    queries. This is the first time I have every had an answer like yours.
    Do you have someone in yhour company who can help with my problem or
    not. I can use other methods if necessary to have my money returned.

  • I-Photo files will not open

    I have a Mac OSX 10.4.11 system. Some of my iphoto files in the iphoto folder in the finder window have morphed into documents that will not open rather then the usual .jpg files. I have the thumbnails in the library but, when clicked, they open to the grey rounded corner square with the exclamation point in the center. These grey windows affect about 40 of 1000+ pictures. When getting "info" on these document type files it does not say what type of file it is, only that it gives the answer "none" as to which application can open the document/file.
    I have tried rebuilding the database by opening iphoto holding down the option and command (apple) keys to no avail. This does not seem to be the usual disconnect between thumbnail and file because when going iphoto/user/library/originals the files themselves will not open.
    I will appreciate any info on this ---    Thank you,  Jeremy

    Hello Mr. Terence --- 
    It was a disconnect/location problem between the thumbnail and the files. I figured out this morning that the pics that were grey! bombing were all located in one folder in a larger 2006 folder.The file had pictures from both 2005 and 2006 in it so I tried moving the grey! bombing folder to the 2005 folder from the 2006 folder and Voila!! the pics were now showing up in I-Photo.
    I don't know/remember if I re-labeled the problem file folder or whether or not myself or the computer did the sorting into the "year" type files. Probably my mistake because one wouldn't think that the computer itself would forget where it put/located something.
    In any case, problem solved! I did have to remove the .jpg from the files that I had tried last night and that had subsequently opened in "Preview" to get them to work after re-locating the problem file. Thank you again ---
    ---Jeremy

  • Missing iphoto photos/ window will not open?

    While working with downloading photos from a CD, I dragged some files from my hard drive Pictures Icon into the trash. When I tried to open iPhoto again, the wheel just spins and iPhoto will not open. I went back to "Pictures help" and read that items should not be moved from "Pictures." because it may affect iPhoto!!! I dragged everything from Picturers back out of the trash and back into the Pictures window. iPhoto still will not open. What can I do now to open iPhoto?
    imac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   iPhoto 4.0.3

    Start iPhoto while holding the shift+option keys until you're prompted to confirm your intention to rebuild the database. Click "Yes", the click "Save". Give it a few minutes.
