End of File issue with Photoshop CS5

Running Mac OS 10.6.5 and Photoshop CS5
Steps to reproduce the Problem:
1. Open .psd file from the server
2. Make changes
3. Save
4. Receive error message: "Could not save as "<filename>" because an unexpected end-of-file was encountered"
5. Click OK
6. File disappears from the server
7. Save again
8.  Save As prompt appears
9. Same location is selected with same file name. The file saves correctly.
Work around:
1. Click Photoshop->Preferences->File Handling
2. Under File Saving Options->Image Previews
3. Change to "Never Save"
This option does not seem to have any affect on viewing the list of files in Windows Explorer, but does affect how the files can be viewed in the Mac Finder.
It appears that disabling the option to save “ImagePreview/Icon” results the file no longer being able to Previewed from within Finder.  It also results in the File having a generic ICON.
Hope that this helps others who may be experiencing the same issue.
Will take suggestions for other work arounds or fixes.
Adobe basically says "We don't support working with files directly from a server".
I don't have this problem using Photoshop CS4.

Just to make sure: You are aware that this is not a Photoshop-issue per se even if it may be the only application that produces the problem for you?

  • .PSD File incompatible with Photoshop CS5 after working on it in CS5 for hours

    Hi. Sorry If I've posted in the wrong area, but I'm a little flustered and I have not a clue of where to put this. Couldn't find anything related to troubleshooting.
    I was working on an Illustration in Photoshop CS5 yesterday; it was a trial version. After hours of work and saving regularly (yes, I'm POSITIVE I saved as a .PSD and did not add any extensions) I decided to get to bed. I woke up today, fired up the CPU, and I'm getting this message every time I try to open this file in either photoshop or windows image viewer;
    Adobe Photoshop CS5 extended
    Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop.
    The computer had been restarted after I had saved last night before I went to bed, and it opened the file just fine. All the other .PSD files from yesterday that I've saved are able to open without a problem.
    I only used the brush tool and eraser tool to create the illustrations I worked on yesterday.
    I've updated Photoshop CS5 to 12.0.4 after I found this problem. It didn't solve it.
    I have not downloaded or installed any files to this CPU since I started work on the illustrations.
    I'm running windows 7 64 bit
    2.0 GB of Ram
    AMD Athlon 64x2 Dual-Core Processor TK-55 1.8 GHz
    If anyone needs any information regarding the CPU I'll be more than happy to get them for you; I'm sorry that I don't have all my specs, I'm not very good with computers. I'm sure that If you need something I can fish it out for you. I realize everyone has deadlines to work around; I've tried to get you as much information as possible. Thank you for your time in advance.

    Could be a problem with your disk, a problem with the OS, or it could be the wrong file extension on the file.
    How large is this file?  If I could take a look at the file, I could probably narrow down the causes.

  • Facing Issue with Photoshop CS5.1

    Hi,
    I am facing problem while using Save / Save As / Save for web options in my Photoshop. On clicking Save / Save As commands, my photoshop gets closed abruptly and I am losing all data. If I choose Save for Web option, the file Save dialog box appears and when I click on the 'Save' button, the application gets closed abruptly.
    It was working fine yesterday.
    My version is bundled in the Technical Communicator suite 3.5 and I faced some problems with Adobe Acrobat, for which my IT team took support from Adobe and got it resolved just two days ago. (Case ID - 184809966)
    Any help on this would be highly appreciable.

    What’s your OS?
    Boilerplate-text:
    Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by pressing command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift while starting Photoshop until the appropriate dialog appears after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)

  • Why cannot I open NEF files from a Nikon D600 with Photoshop CS5?

    When I try to open raw NEF files from a Nikon D600 with Photoshop CS5 I get: "Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw"
    Nikon D600, however, is among the camera models listed as compatible with Camera Raw CS5.
    I have never had any problem in Camera Raw CS5 and older versions with raw NEF files from a Nikon D80 camera.
    Is there an update for CS5 to make it compatible with Nikon D600 raw NEF files?
    Many thaks in advance.

    Which verison of camera raw do you have installed? I would update to the latest camera raw plug in. Here is a link to 6.7

  • BUG WITH PHOTOSHOP CS5

    One thing I cannot stand with
    Photoshop CS5 is the snap on files.  I open 10 files and I have 10 tabs.  In order
    to manipulate them, I have to drag the tab out in order to drag and drop layers between files.  I had a
    great idea if you guys like to have tabbed open photoshop files.  Why not
    have the layered files I have be able to drag and drop onto the tabs???????
    This way, when I click on another opened file tab, I can see the layer on the file I dragged and dropped.
    HERE IS AN EVEN BIGGER IDEA.
    When dragging and dropping photoshop layers onto other open tab files, when you drag and drop onto the tab, HAVE THE TAB LIGHT UmP.  This way, when I let go of the mouse, I can click on the tab and KNOW the layer is in the file.
    Just thought of putting my two sents in today.

    I know of someone who had this same issue. He ended up backtracking to 10.6.3 and that fixed the problem. There seemed to be an issue with part of the update that PS didn't like when handling so many open files.
    Hope that helps.

  • Cannot save any file opened in Photoshop CS5

    Hi all, looking for some help...
    I've got a 27-inch Imac running:
    Mac OS X Lion 10.7.1
    Processor: 2.8 GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory: 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 5750 1024 MB
    Storage: 1TB HD with 920 BG free
    The problem is (thus far) exclusively with Photoshop CS5. I have the latest patch installed (12.0.4). No matter what file I open in Photoshop, I can't save. When I try to save, I get the following error:
    This error occurs regardless of file type chosen, whether I 'save' or save-as' and both if I start a new file or if I try to alter an existing file. I have run disk permissions and disk repair on my mac with no luck thus far. I have googled this issue, and found lots of discussions with a similar issue involving the Photoshop preferences file. So, I deleted my preferences file and started over, no luck there. I have gone through and manually checked for locked files—the files are not locked. I have tried saving in as many locations as I can think of, still no luck.
    This is a legit, updated copy of Photoshop CS5 on a relatively new computer with ample space... and it worked yesterday afternoon! I am wondering if uninstalling and re-installing Photoshop is the answer, but I thought I'd try here first.
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Lindsay
    PS: I have read this thread: "Could not save because write access was not granted." Unfortunately it doesn't help me, because I can't save-as either, and I am not working off a server.

    Thanks Zeno -- you are the first person ever to answer my question "how big" with a precise amount.
    I have never actually heard of an "exabyte" before and am blown away by its size of a billion gigabytes... there are a number of other interesting size limits according to the text towards the bottom of the Adobe tech note http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/404/kb404439.html for which you sent me the link, but which I have never before been able to get from Adobe tech support.
    An exabyte seemed so big that I needed to confirm it before I could believe it. From various sources including Wikipedia I was able to confirm that...
    1 Exabyte = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 Bytes = 1018 bytes = 1 billion gigabytes = 1 million terabytes. There's an interesting table of all the names of different data sizes, from kilobyte to yottabyte, at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exabyte
    So if 4 exabytes is the max. size of a PSB file, I think it will just about be big enough for my puny little 16Gb file.
    Thanks again for solving my problem.

  • Issues installing Photoshop CS5 in my Mac Book Pro

    I have heard that there are issues installing Photoshop CS5 in case sensitive Snow Leopard drives. How do I know if I have a case sensitive drive. I was able to download the 30 trial version of Photoshop CS5. My file system is listed as - Journaled HFS+. Is anyone familiar with this issue and will I have this issue installing Photoshop CS5 on my Mac? Thanks.

    As you had already downloaded the installer, give it a try. Well if your file system is Journaled HFS+ installer will not report any error related to file system.
    To check the file system -
    Finder > File > New Finder Window
    Select only the volume under Devices for which you wish to get the file system information.
    File > Get Info
    Under General tab check Format:
    I believe it would be just "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" in your case. For case-sensitive it would be like -
    "Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled)" or "Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive)"

  • Droplet cannot communitcate with Photoshop CS5

    Droplet cannot communitcate with Photoshop CS5  ... that is the error.
    Win7 64-bit ,  LRv3.6 , CS5  Updated   ... Dell i7 Desktop with 24gb and SSD on OS
    The Action in CS5 works, BUT, when I create a Droplet , it does NOT work ... the EXPORT and run droplet out of LRv3.6  saves a PSD file , but then cannot communicate with CS5 to run the Action within CS5  ... in LRv3.6 I can see the newly created  PSD file but nothing is changed to it.
    I tried to drop a PSD file on it , it does not work.
    Here is the "Strange" part  ...   have the same set up on my ASUS Laptop (no SSD)  with 8gb   ...  and the Exact same Action and converted DROPLET  works!    ... when I drop a PSD file on it, it works
    I tried to move the Droplet to the Dell Desktop with the SSD but NOOOO it does not work
    Seems to be PS CS5 on my one Desktop computer cannot generate a  DROPLET that communicates with PS CS5.
    Can someone please help me?
    Thank you,
    HG

    R_Kelly,
    In Win7  ... from the start  (probably because when I made the flip to Win7 it was with i7 computers (Desk and Laptop)  I have ONLY run 64-bit.
    So, I have ONLY run 64-bit  on LR and PS CS5.
    Here's the twist , info  ... that might help other's  ... I hope.
    My i7 ASUS laptop 8gb was always  Win7 64-bit from the start ... I only had to upgrade it from Home to PRO.
    My i7 Dell Desktop 24gb tri-channel (which is where I have the issue)  weny from a Dell installed  VISTA 64-bit Home Prem, to Win7 64-bit Home Prem , to Win7 PRO  ... I "just" did a Clean install with a conversion to SSD on my OS  , so all my programs are re-installed. And things run much faster on this Desktop (but my Laptop is surprisingly fast).   note: when I re-installed , went thru the whole upgrade path, because I had a eSATA external port issue that needed (and was) to be resolved with the Dell disk.
    But, as I said ... it's working  ... not great , but working  ...  
    Learned a few things (from 3 hours tinkering)   ... on the Export to a CS5 Droplet  from LRv3.6  the first thing it does is does a save to PSD (well, given the export flow) , then it goes into PS CS5  (I normally have it open already) ... and then runs the Droplet.
    So, my BIG error is  recording the Action in CS5  with a DNG (ctrl+E from LRv3.6)  ... interesting that my Laptop did not have that issue , AND I could not use the Droplet created from my Laptop on my Desktop either.  Strange.
    Oh, I just remembered something ... On my laptop ,  I "might" have activated  Win7 's ability to run 32-bit old programs  ... it was a while ago  ... and I think you had to load that separatly , it's not automatic.  AND, I did not do that for the Desktop.  Hmmmmmm
    R_Kelly,   Thank you for the Help and Food for Thought.

  • What is the most advanced version of ACR that can be used with Photoshop CS5?

    What is the most advanced version of ACR that can be used with Photoshop CS5?
    Will it open RAW files from a Canon 5D Mark III ?

    CS5 can use up to ACR 6.7.1.  CS6 started with ACR 7.0.
    The 5D Mark III was first supported with ACR 6.7.
    ACR 6.7.1 can be downloaded from the Camera Raw Mac and Win links on the Adobe Download page:

  • Stretched photos after editing with photoshop CS5

    When I crop a photo with photoshop CS5 and then go and review it in Iphoto the picture looks like the unedited version in the "events" but when i double click on it it appears streteched. How do I fix this?
    Also, when I edit a photo with CS5 (for ex: cool a picture if it is too warm) then go to look at it in iphoto it looks like the unedited version and once I click on the photo I can see the edited version.

    The following is how Photoshop should be used from within iPhoto:
    Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done. 
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements  the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Note:  to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

  • Encore & Premiere Pro CS3 with Photoshop CS5

    Hi,
       I have the CS3 suite on Vista 32 bit. I was wondering if I can keep the Premiere Pro CS3 and Encore CS3  and only upgrade Photoshop to CS5. Has anyone had any compatibility issues using this combination? Can Encore CS3 menus be easily edited in Photoshop CS5?
    Thanks

    Welcome to the forum
    You cannot upgrade to a standalone program from a Suite.
    But to answer your question: yes you can edit Encore CS3 menus with Photoshop CS5.

  • CS2 Raw File issues with Nikon D90

    Just saw the post  on Nikon D90 non compatibility with CS2 raw file format. Questions are where to go from here. Running Windows XP with a AMD Athlon (tm) XP3000+ 2.16 ghz 448 mb ram. Is Cs4 or  Cs5 compatible with my system. I used a D70 for years and had no problems. What is going on here? I can probably add ram to get the 1000 mb of ram but what about the rest? Is there another alternative other than a new system? 

    Caution!
    Before plunking down the $$$ for CS5, look for the several threads around here where people are discovering their older AMD processors are not compatible with Photoshop CS5!
    For example:  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/630771
    I'm not familiar with the processors in the AMD lineup, but it's possible yours will not run Photoshop CS5 until such time as Adobe releases an update.

  • Issues with transferring CS5 project with Adobe Dynamic Links to CS5.5

    Hello all!
    Has anybody encountered the issue with transferring CS5 projects with Adobe Dynamic Links to CS5.5?
    When I try to do it the movie hangs on at some clips which are AE compositions...
    The CS5 project works perfectly.
    All AE CS5 compositions are transerred to AE CS5.5 compositions.
    All 'old' Adobe Dynamic Links in Pr CS5.5 project are changed to 'new' ones (I mean, links to AE CS5 composition changed to links to AE CS5.5 compositions)...
    Any help will be appreciated

    Tried to play around. Realised that a solution should be somewhere around re-rendering, 'cos linked AE compositions were always displayed in yellow as if they were original footages - even I changed a composition within AE, just transitions, if they were, changed to red in Pr Pro sequence...
    However, I was unable to re-render 'Entire Work Area' even after deleting all Render Files, just 'Effects in Work Area'...
    Then I simply created a new sequence and copied and pasted all the clips from original sequence. Now I was allowed to 'Render Entire Work Area'.
    Voilà!

  • I work with photoshop CS5 and the stamp is very slow. Why?

    I work with photoshop CS5 and the stamp is verry slow. Why?

    If you can afford it, go with a Crucial M4 SSD.
    If your in a limited budget, go with a Seagate Momentus XT 750GB.
    The SSD will be the fastest one and the Seagate being faster than a conventional drive.
    If you decide to go conventional, avoid the Western Digital Scorpio Blue.  They tend to have issues with Macbooks.
    Good luck
