Error message: "This document contains photoshop data which appears to be damaged."

I saved the file I was working on by choosing "Save" from the "File" menu. Unfortunately after 10 min as I saved my work  my PC had "issues" and needed to be manually shut off. I was trying to open the psd file after restarting my computer and I get this error message: "This document contains photoshop data which appears to be damaged. Continue and ignore the photoshop data?" I clicked okay and then I get just a black screen. No Layers or any pictures.
I have tried to preview in Graphic Converter, in Illustrator, in ACDSee, etc... Nothing... I just get a black screen. Also, I have tried file recovery programs: Stellar Phoenix PSD Repair V1.0 and Advanced PSD Repair v1.4
The program Stellar Phoenix PSD Repair V1.0 was able to recover only BMP picture 3.4 KB, it is so tiny that you can't see anything on the picture.
I also have tried to install plugin "psdrecover", for Adobe Photoshop. Unsuccessfully for some reason. The plugin does not want to be installed into the "plugins" folder. I did follow the instructions.
I am using Photoshop 6 version and Windows 7 operating System.
I am in dire need of help. I've been working on it for days. Is there any way to recover that file back?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you're likely out of luck.  We almost never hear of anyone recovering image data from a damaged PSD.
Some thoughts:
1.  Set up backups.
2.  Get in the habit of saving your master file in several different locations as you work on it.
3.  Consider upgrading to Photoshop CS6, which auto-saves your work in the background.  I'm not sure whether it would have recovered the data in your particular case, but it's possible.
4.  Don't feel bad - go back and do the image again, and I'll bet it comes out even better in less time.

    "This document contains Adobe photoshop data which appears to be damaged. Continue and ignore the photoshop data?" --- I am getting this message when im trying to open a photoshop file which I have worked last couple of days and when I say “OK” I’m just getting a blank black background screen and nothing on it.. but the file size remains 10mb... Please help me to recover my designs..!!! pls..

    Did you try opening a flattened version of the file? Press and hold down Opt + Shift (Mac) or Alt + Shift (Win) as you open the file. See if you're able to at least recover a flattened copy of the file that you can save as a JPG.
    If not, I'm sorry to break this  - you may be out of luck. There are lot of PSD repair programs - but they hardly work to recover all of lost data.
    This error message is very rare and is usually caused due to a bad sector on drive, improper eject of USB (if your file was once stored there) or a hard drive that is about to conk. This is one of the reasons you should keep 'Backing up' - make it a process!
    Btw, are you on Windows/ Mac OS?
    Good luck.

    A "quick" fix that worked for me was to uninstall Adobe... then download the base install for Adobe Reader 11.0.
    Then download each of the individual updates and run them sequentially. 
    I've installed back up to the last security update which is version 08 and have been able to do normal Save As operations.
    You will have to disable automatic updates in order to stay at version 08 until Adobe resolves this issue in a later release.

  • Persistent Premiere Pro CC 2014 error message: "This project contains a sequence that could not be opened..."

    I've been working on a project and everything was working fine. I close the program and reopened it an hour later. Now, I keep getting this error message: "This project contains a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type."
    I attempted to use one of the Adobe suggested solutions... opening a new project, clicking on the "Help" Tab and deactivating, but the tab doesn't have that option. I'm also a little afraid to uninstall and re-install premiere pro, the other suggestion, because I'm worried about losing my files.
    I would be grateful if anyone could help me.
    Thank you very much.

    I am not sure but this coudl be reason.
    You have created a vehicle but you have not created the purchase order and Goods Recipt for the Vehicle, means the VEHICLE IS NOT IN YOUR INVENTORY
    First check whether the vehicle is in inventory or not, if not then not possible to do Goods issue.

    Try rebooting your iPad. To reboot your iPad, hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button simultaneously until the screen goes black and the Apple logo appears. If, during this process, a slider appears on the screen to power it off, ignore it and keep holding the buttons down.
    Rebooting your iPad can solve a lot of problems. Try it and report back.

  • 'This document contains a link to an asset being upscaled'

    When opening two separate Muse sites I have received the warning message, 'This document contains a link to an asset being upscaled. You should resize it smaller, or relink to a larger asset using the Assets panel'. However, none of the assets that the site links to have been amended.
    Does anyone know why this might be?
    Thanks.

    I believe the warning you're referring to is "This document contains a link to an asset being upsampled."
    Upsampling refers to the fact the image has been resized to a size larger than it's original pixel dimensions. For example a 72x72 pixel square image may have been placed then resized to 100x100. Such an image will be exported by Muse, but it will not have an optimal appearance in the browser due to being larger than it's original dimensions. (It's been "upsampled.")
    In general you want to have all the images in your site be the same size or smaller than the original placed/imported image data in order to avoid upsampling. Slight upsampling can result in an image that looks dull or slightly blurred, depending on the browser being used. A large amount of upsampling will result in an image that appears pixelated in the browser.
    This message is a warning. Whether or not the result of the upsampling is acceptable is a judgement call only you can make.
    The Assets panel displays an icon next to any image that's being upsampled.
    One other case where this will be reported is for any image that is larger the 2048 pixels in width or height. Muse initially limits image data to a 2048 maximum in either dimension. If you have an image that is larger than 2048, you need to select it in the Assets panel, right click and choose "Import Larger Size" from the context menu. This will pull in the additional image data for whatever size the image is in Muse and thus avoid any upsampling.

  • I'm having trouble accessing my pdf.  Error message:  "There was an error opening this document..."

    Hi
    I have been working on a pdf in Adobe Reader 9.3 on 2007 Microsoft Windows v5.1.  The pdf is set up as a form that I can enter data into.  Last time I worked on it I saved it, and then when I went to open it the next time I had the following error message:  "There was an error opening this document. There was a problem reading this document (14)."
    I have tried to recover the pdf by going to www.datanumen.com/apdf but when I try to repair the pdf I get another error message:  "Xml parsing error: not well formed (invalid token) (error code 4), line 12874, column 20 of file."  The second error message looks like the problem has been pinpointed but I don't know how to fix it.Could you please let me know if there is any way to recover this file?
    Thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction!!

    Thanks for the information.
    Could you please also let me know which version of Adobe Reader are you currently using. If you are not using Reader 9.4.6 (which is the latest version of Adobe Reader), can you try updating to the latest released version by
    1. Launching Adobe Reader
    2. Clicking on Help > Check for Updates
    3. When prompted click on Download followed by Install.
    This will update Reader to the latest version.
    Also, please verify if this issue that you are facing is with a specific PDF alone or is the issue happening with all PDFs that you are trying to print from Win7.

  • Error when creating table (Document contains no data)

    Hi,
    I've installed htmldb 2.0 and after playing with it for a while, everything seems to be ok, except
    for table creation. No matter I use the sql command console or the object creation wizard, the
    situation is the same: i can arrive until the last confirmation page, and after submitting the browser
    complains about a page with no data (Document contains no data).
    I can create other things, such as views, functions, sequences, even applications. Is just table the one giving problems. Can somebody tell me where are the relevant logs, in order to trace better the situation? Or, if you have any other suggestion (maybe I missed something during the installation, or things like that).
    Thanks in advance.

    dario estepario ...

    Sure, this is part of the weird thing: nothing is displayed when this error happens. However, yesterday, a friend of mine made the same test (with another browser) and I saw some messages like this ones on the error_log*:
    [Tue Nov 22 15:12:01 2005] [error] [client 201.138.102.50] [ecid: 1132693921:192.168.1.1:24300:0:155,0] mod_plsql: /pls/htmldb/wwv_flow.accept HTTP-500 Error Reading Data from Client!!
    At least, they are a http-500 errors ... while in my case, I can not receive any answer at all.
    But this was yesterday, today ... every time I reproduce the situation, the error_log does not move.
    Regards,
    PS: Another point: I can create the table importing data.

    Looks like it got stuck.
    You can switch to another program or the Finder (click on desktop) and Apple menu > Force Quit > Adobe
    You can press and hold the power button, it's a emergency force shutdown which you can boot normally and it should be fine.
