DVD-SP on MBPro - can't open file or create buttons in new one

This is quite bizarre.
I've recently installed FCS2 on a new MBPro - latest OS, QT, etc...
For some reason, I can't create a button on a menu. I can't drag to create one - it never even shows the box. When I drag a shape on and choose "Create Button" - nothing happens.
When I try to open an existing project from another system, it hangs up during "Loading Menus".
I've even deleted the APP, the PREFs, and the RECEIPTS, then re-installed the program from scratch - and the exact same thing happens.
Any ideas?

Without system info or other details we can't tell you anything. Most likely this is a permissions issue where PS cannot access the templates for new documents or other configuration data nor may it be able to create its swap files. Look into that and verify your file permission as well as turn off security tools that may block this stuff. also run as admin to test.

Can't open files or create new files in photoshop CS6

Urgent!
Since I updated photoshop, when I click New or Open File photoshop behaves like I didn't click anything.
But otherwise reacts to anything else I click on.
What is wrong?

Can't open file i created yesterday v5.5 .psd

I just created yesterday a .PSD 5.5 file on an HP (64 bit, etc), and now I can't open it. Message says not compatable... I am using a trial version of CS5.5, but still have 15 days left. Couldn't open on a mac iin CS4 either.
Don't remember if I had "maximize compatability" on or not.

Seems to be several posts with the same problem on this page. No solutions offered yet. Keep track of those post also.

Can't open file I created in numbers

created a file in numbers a couple days ago now when I'm trying to open it I get a message that says it can't be opened and I must buy a new version.I don't understand since i'm trying to open in the same computer and same numbers program I created it in. Am I being forced to buy the upgrade ?

This is confusing to a lot of people. When you downloaded the new version of Numbers (or it was downloaded automatically for you because you have automatic updates turned on in System Preferences > App Store) the old version remained on your Mac. The new version is in Applications. The old version is in a subfolder within Applications.
The icons look similar so it's easy to think you're trying to open a document with the new version whereas in fact the old version has been activated and is trying to open it, giving you message that you need to upgrade.
If you tend to open documents from Finder then right-click and Open With ... Numbers.app (3.0).
Or you can open Numbers 3.0 (the one in the Applications folder, not the iWork '09 subfolder) and open the document from there.
Any icons you had on the Dock before the upgrade are of course still pointing to the old version.

I can't open old Word documents or save new ones. Help!

I'm not tech savvy at all and I really need Word for school. Please help if you can.
Whenever I'm trying to open an old file I get:
"File is locked for editing.
Locked by: another user
Filename: "insert name"
You can open file in read only"
When I click "read only" I get:
"Word cannot open document. The document might be in use, the document might not be a valid Word document, or the filename might contain invalid characters."
When I try to save a new file I get:
"Word cannot save this document due to a naming or permission error on the destination volume."

Numbers 3.0.1 - Can't open file "Work.numbers"

Hello, all Community!
Here's a iWork Numbers file, edited and successful saved yesterday to local folder, named Work.numbers.
Today this file not opening anymore. Number's says: "Can't open file ..." And just one button "OK".
In system log here's next lines:

What I done to try resolve this problem:
1. Checked permissions and repaired.
2. Tried to open file in iCloud web-editor - no result. iCloud says that it can't open this spreadsheet.
3. Tried to convert file via some online file type converters to xls document (i will not put link here). Converter says that I have wrong file format.
Also I tried to open file in some other programs. No luck.
That's all.
File Work.numbers has been closed correctly and was no errors. Unfortunately, we have no any backup copy of this file anywhere. I know, this is stupid, but question now: How can I repair this document? Is any repair tools for iWork files?
The file seems like has right structure.

Unzipping Index.zip is passing without errors. It has many "iwa" files with binnary content and I can't get data from it. But, data in that file is very important for one person.
Could anybody help me to resolve my problem to restore Numbers document?

Hi rabg,
I am using OS X 10.8 on a Mac. This may be different if you are using iOS.
Does Numbers'09 still exist in your Applications folder? Maybe inside a new folder? Perhaps you could use Numbers'09 to open your documents.
Regards,
Ian.

Can you open files on a pc from time machine?

Can you open files on a pc from time machine?

You have to be more descriptive. Partition what?
File sharing can be accomplished many ways,.
Network
Usb flash drive
External hard drive
NAS
DVDs
It is as simple as copying/saving from one computer/drive to another computer/drive.

Clamd "can't open file or directory"

I've just installed Mountain Lion Server on a Mac Mini, mainly for use as an email server. Everything is set up and, in the main, working ok except that if I enable anti-virus checking the mail server closes itself. (The other filtering options work fine BTW.) A look in the logs reveals a message
clamd Can't open file or directory
There's no clue that I can see which file or directory can't be opened.
Can anyone tell me where I can look for diagnostic info?
Thanks.

gambo74, Welcome to the discussion area!
It sounds like the drive directory is corrupted.
Boot from the DVD that came with your iMac. Open Disk Utility and repair the hard drive.

Vi error on nfs mount; E212: Can't open file for writing

Hi all,
I've setup a umask of 0 for testing on both NFS client (Centos 5.2) and NFS server (OSX 10.5.5 server).
I can create files as one user and edit/save out as another user w/o issue when directly logged into the server via ARD.
However, when I attempt the same from an NFS mount on a client machine, even as root I get the following error using vi;
"file" E212: Can't open file for writing
Looking at the system.log file on the server, I see;
kernel[0]: add_fsevent: no name hard-link! dropping the event. (event 2 vp == 0xa5db510 (-UNKNOWN-FILE)).
This baffles me. My umask is 0 meaning files I create and attempt to edit as other users are 777, but I cannot save out edits unless I do a wq! in vi. At that point, the owner of the file changes to whomever did the vi.
This isn't just a vi issue as it happens using any editor, but I like to use vi.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Hey, beer is on me!

Hi all,
Thanks for the replies
I've narrowed it down to a Centos client issue.
Everything works fine using other Linux based OS's as clients.
Since we have such a huge investment in Centos, I must figure out a workaround. Apple support wasn't much help as usual however they were very nice.
There usual response is "its unsupported".
If Apple really wants to play in the enterprise of business space, they really need to change there philosophy. I mean telling me that I shouldn't mount home directories via NFS is completely rediculus.
What am I supposed to use then, Samba of AFP? No, I don't think so. No offense to Microsoft but why would I use a Windows based file sharing protocol to mount network shares in a Nix env???

Iweb installed on a new computer but i have this error message: Can't open file "~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2."

I have just installed ilife on my new computer from my disk. I have several backups of my webpage from my old computer. Everything would be great if I could just run the program. When I click the icon for iWeb I get the following message: Can’t open file “~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2.”
Somebody please help! I desperately need to update my website.

In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Error message: "Can't open file"

Using Keynote 3.0.x I try to open a keynote file created a year ago and when I try to open the "Opening" dialog comes up, you see the progress bar, and then, I get the error message, "Can’t open file" followed by the file name. Any recourse?
PowerMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.7) FInal Cut Pro 5.1

I later discovered the file was damaged. Went back to a backup copy and things were fine. Good think we have backups.

Error message: "Can't open file "[File path, file name].key"

If I attempt to open any Keynote files, I now get this error message.
"Can't open file "[File path: file name].key"
To clarify, the text in the square brackets above would be the file path and then the file name.
The file then will appear on the screen, but is unresponsive to any clicks or menu commands.
The files will open successfully on other Macs, so they aren't corrupt.
Also - I've just checked, and opening Keynote and trying to create a new presentation leads to the same problem: All screen menus / buttons are dead - all I can do is drag the window around the screen.
I've tried to reinstall Keynote, but this hasn't resolved the problem.
Is there some corrupt preference file (or similar) that I need to get rid of? Is there an easy way to do a complete uninstall of Keynote so I can try another install? Or is this a symptom of something else?
All ideas gratefully appreciated!

All the issues I describe in my questions around this time re: Keynote were actually symptoms of a soon-to-die laptop. The Hard Disc was corrupting, and Keynote was the first application to be affected.

Can't open files in iCloud

Just recently, I haven't been able to open files stored in iCloud using either Pages or Numbers. When I try with either application, I get an error message saying, e.g., "The file “Wines.pages” couldn’t be opened." What can I do to fix that?

Possibly you have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed over 110 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs.
