Elements 6.0- Suddenly can't open a file

This is a sudden development, as Photoshop Elements 6.0 has been working fine for years. I am able to open the program, but as soon as I try to open any sort of file, even a new one, it no longer responds. Any suggestions? I have no idea what is causing this seemingly sudden problem.

Well, certainly try the FAQ Paige posted.  If that doesn't help, then try these troubleshooting steps:

  • Suddenly can't open .eps files in FW8

    Hi all-
    I suddenly can't open .eps files in FW8.  Starts to open and then says "Internal error occurred"  Text tool is also acting up.   I think it may be related to one of the extensions I downloaded  from the Adobe Exchange.  Or, maybe it was something I did.  Probably the latter.  Either way, it seems like my FW8 has gotten corrupted.   Ran spyware, adware, defrag, and virus scans.  Even talked nice to my computer, but nothing has worked.  I looked for patches or downloads on Adobe's site but there are none for FW8.
    Anyway, I'm guessing my only option is to reinstall, unless someone out there has a better idea.  If I do reinstall, does it erase everything?  Meaning, will I lose all extensions and all the settings?
    Thanks for your help!

    Using Win XP Media center edition v 5.1 Service Pack 3.  Been too afraid to upgrade to Vista.  Probably about time to upgrade my FW.
    I searched my entire machine for that file, both by file name and by all .txt files and could not find a "Preferences" file anywhere.  Here's what came up under the FW directory path:
    Thanks for your help, Heathrowe!

  • I suddenly can not open pdf files. I have had Adobe Reader Xl and just ran into this problem

    I have had adobe reader xl for some time and suddenly can not open a pdf file. I received an email yesterday with a pdf attachment which I can not open. What could be my problem?

    Hi Pat, My operating system is Windows 7, Home Premium Service Pack 1. My email client (email Provider is Cox Communications - Cox.net).
    Can not in my post means I tried to open a pdf attachment to a email. I received  nothing happens. I do not get a blank screen or any messages. Nothing Nothing happens at all. I can click several times and get no response.
    I did discover that by clicking on the Adobe Icon on my deskt topi get an Adobe box containing  "Do you want to allow changes to your computer. I click Yes and get to my computer where I can find the above mentoned attachment which I think I had previously saved. I then get the attachment whick I can print. This may be printing from my hard drive - I am not sure. I think I could go through this procedure every time I want to open a atachment but it seems a long way around.
    Any help you can give me would be appreciated. I have thought about removing Adobe and reinstalling. Maybe there is a corruption to my Adobe file.

  • Suddenly Can't Open RAW files in Photoshop CS3!

    I have never had troubles with photoshop before, but since I installed windows 7 and reinstalled CS3, Photoshop is no longer able to open camera raw files! When I attempt to open one a window pops up stating: Could not complete your request because it is not the right type of document. What on earth is going on?! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thank you

    Thats Correct. First check if there are two versions or not if there is, then it would be better to delete them and re-download it from this link
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4038&fileID=3755
    After the download unzip the files and then copy the Camera raw.8bi in this location
    >>> C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats
    PS ::  Use Program Files and Program Files(X86) according to your computer.

  • Suddenly can't open pdf file in Word, get a conversion box message

    This just started. Using Word 2002, when I try to open a pdf file all I get is a file conversion box for different systems and languages, none of which open the document. I tried going into the Properties in the file and selecting which program to open it in, but using neither Word or Adobe makes a difference.

    To clarify, I am not using Word to open the pdf files. Those are in My Documents along with Word and Excel files.

  • Suddenly Can't Open PDFs. Starting about three days ago firefox will no longer open any PDFs. I get a blank page in a new tab.

    Suddenly Can't Open PDFs in Firefox. Starting about three days ago firefox will no longer open any PDFs. I get a blank page in a new tab. Nice timing, with finals and everything where I need to view PDFs of practice tests.

    Mozilla Firefox did not do their job, here. I am an editor and am constantly online. Now, I have to go to Safari to download PDFs. I reinstalled an earlier version of Firefox to get rid of the problem, but somehow Firefox has deactivated my PDF download feature. This is a total wreck and I am so angry I could spit. Stop launching new products until you have fully tested them. Customers are not your guinea pigs. Please fix this now- and fire a few idiots on the way- the ones who let this happen.

  • I can not open raw files in elements 12 any help please?

    I can not open raw files from my Nikon D610 in elements 12. (I have already downloaded raw converter 8.3 but to no avail) any help please would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Can you confirm which Camera Raw PSE 12 is actually using by loading the editor and going to Help -> About Plug-in -> Camera Raw.
    If you do Help -> Updates it may install the latest camera raw of 8.4 - not on XP or Vista systems.
    Do you use any Nikon software to download the images? The older versions have been known to corrupt the files.
    See the following for more info.

  • I bought a canon EOS Rebel T5i. It came with photoshop elements 11.  PS won't open my C2 raw files and says my camera isn't supported by the software I have downloaded 7.4 dng converter and I still can't open the files.  What do I need to do?

    I bought a canon EOS Rebel T5i. It came with photoshop elements 11.  PS won't open my C2 raw files and says my camera isn't supported by the software I have downloaded 7.4 dng converter and I still can't open the files.  What do I need to do?

    You need camera raw 8.4 for your camera, if it’s Digital Rebel T5 EOS 1200D EOS Kiss X70. It is not compatible with PSE11; so it’s a bit odd if that software was bundled with the camera except that it will work with jpegs. I suggest you download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will editable in PSE11(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.4
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

    Three choices:
    1. Upgrade to PSE11
    2. download the free Adobe DNG Converter and then convert your RAWs to DNG, which will open in PSE9
    3. Use manufacturer's software and convert to TIF (or JPG)

    Chances are you are simply using a brandnew camera and it isn't supported in any version of ACR yet.

  • Suddenly can not open pages document

    So, I'm faced with a sudden problem. I cant open any pages documents. When I try, there is no error message, the document just does not open. The application itself opens fine, I just can't open any files. When I tried to send the document through gmail, it said that it was zero bytes, so it could not be attached. I am running pages 5.5.2, and osx yosemite. I updated my software within the last two weeks. I don't know when the document was last editied exactly, but I know it was after the updates were made. When I first started trying to open this document, Pages told me there was an update, and I ignored it, thinking that I would do it later. However, I tried to go to the App store to see the update just now, and there was none to be found.

    i think if you edit a pages doc on the cloud it wont let you open it with desktop pages - best idea open on the cloud  -then copy text, paste to desktop pages. Its all part of Apples 'problem with computer? - buy a new one' policy i guess, its to force you to upgrade the Os...
