File will open in CS3 but not CS4?

I recieved a tif, 161.806"x138.889", cmyk at 72dpi. When I try to open the file in CS4 I get "end of file error".
I have to go back to CS3 and open it, save as psd then it will open in CS4. Any idea why?
thanks

There are some files written by CS3 with bad metadata that CS4 could not read.
Or it could be written or modified by a third party program, and CS3 is ignoring the corrupted part.
I fixed a few cases like that in Photoshop CS5.

Probably not. How's your 3G connection? I ask because I've had issues when the 3G connection isn't strong. Same with WiFi too, actually.

Raw files for nikon d810 not showing a picture in preview. Have camera raw plug in 8.6.0.250 . File will open in raw but no picture ahead of time.

Raw files for Nikon D810 not showing a picture in preview for photoshop cs6 . Have camera raw plugin 8.6.0.250 File will open in ACR and process but no picture before opening raw file.

Are you referencing Apple's Preview application or the Preview panel in Bridge? Huge difference.
Try purging the cache for the offending folder(s) through the Tools menu in Bridge.

Some Tiff files will open in ACR, some not

Hello everyone,
I have tried and read on several posts before posting here to get the solution but nothing foudn till now.
I have LR 5.2 and PS CS6.
RAW files are being managed, worked and converted into Tiff (uncompressed, ProPhoto RGB profile, 350dpi) from Lightroom and then imported in CS6 for further adjusted and layer works, etc..
Some files will be opened via ACR before being opened by CS6 and then some days before, they will just open directly into CS6.
I have checked some settings in LR like " Include Develop Settings in metadata inside JPEG...." which is UNCHECKED/DISABLED and "Automatically write changes in XMP" is CHECKED/ENABLED.
What could be doing this or what could i have messed somewhere?
your help and support well appreciated.

Hello everyone,
Apologize for taking so long to revert back but i was out of the country and busy with the end of year work load.
I will describe my workflow for you to get a better idea of the issue am having.
- I take files (Canon CR2. RAW files) from the memory card (Canon 500D, Canon 70D) then copy to my computer / HDD
- Import these same files withing lightroom for selection/rating/etc.. at this stage the .xmp files have already been written beside the .CR2 files as i have a preset for lens correction on import.
- I will then work on the RAW files inside LR 5 for minor adjustments, and then export them in TIFF format.
- I then open PS CS6 then open the TIFF file.
- Some files will open directly in PS while others may open via the ACR window before then i will click on open image to get it in PS.
- I do my adjustments and advanced editing in PS then save the files in same format.
- LR will see the adjustments done outside of LR and i will import the one from disk (to get the changes i made from PS)
This is my usual workflow and i would like to know if LR and PS use the same .xmp files to store the changes done?
Why some files which get the same treatment inside LR opens without getting through ACR window and some will?
Do you need more info? Please let me know and thank you in advance for the support.

[JS] menuAction.invoke() working with cs3 but not cs4 :-(

Hi,
I wrote a script and chose to call a menu through menuAction.invoke();
I wanted to use an independant locale string to avoid dealing with localization.
It works nice on CS3 but just fails in the CS4.
//I want to fit the window to the spread
var myMenuAction = app.menuActions.item("$ID/Toolbar Fit in Window");
myMenuAction.invoke();
I am really stuck because I have read the indesign CS4 scripting guide carefully on page 119. The given instruction seem to be the same as in the indesign CS3 scripting guide.
I can't see what I did wrong and yet, no way to get it working on CS4. Any hint ?
Thanks in advance,
Loic

Hi Peter and John,
FF is so... tolerant to accept the value of the option as the same as it is displayed in the select list.
where IE is so... prudence, that we have to explictly tell it
ie Post Element Text in IE should be like this
<select id="unit" onchange="TankUnit();" >
<option> -S-</option>
<option value="ml"> ml</option>
<option value="kg"> kg </option>
</select> Units

Video for progressive download - workflow works for CS3 but not CS4

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong with the new Flash CS4.
When I used Flash CS3 I would use the following steps to create a Flash video to view online:
Make a folder for all flash content
In the folder I put the "video".flv file encoded from Quick Time
Import the "video".flv into flash
Save the .fla with the same "video" name
Test the movie
Publish settings using the defaults
Save the flash document
I could send the folder (minus the .fla) to the webmaster to store on the server and then he could point to the "video".swf file and the video would play.
This doesn't work with CS4. I only get a green and white progress bar on the player controls with no video. I assume this means the swf can't find the flv, but they're in the same folder, and I thought the path would hold within a folder. I can't even move the folder to another computer and play the video there. It will only work on the computer where I created the files. I would appreciate any help anyone could offer. I've had to go back to Flash CS3 to correct a mistake in a previously finished video. Thanks in advance.

I did add the gaussian blur to it. Exactly like in the tutorial, I copied his steps in the video exactly, even put the exact same percentage of blur on both the alpha 1 copy and alpha 1 copy 2. both even looked exactly like his after each blur was placed. 4.5% on copy 1, 8.2% on copy 2. after this it all looks just like the instructors. its when the 2 channels are combined and it is filled with black that mine looks different. his comes out with the design white on a black background in channel view, and mine came out black with whit outline on black background on the channels. I even tried filling with white instead of black and that does not work either.
I follow the steps in the video exactly and everything matches up to that one step, if anyone has cs4 maybe they could play with a simple flat shape and try the steps and see if they get a flat outcome as well, or is it possible my version of cs4 has a bug?

PDF Portfolio will open in IE, but not in Firefox or Chrome

I have a PDF Portfolio linked on my site. I can open it fine in IE (version 9), but it will not open in Firefox 21 or Chrome 27. When I click on the link, I get the message "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat X or Adobe Reader X, or later." Even though I can open it fine in IE and I know I already have the correct version, I click on the link/button to download now. It says it installs successfully, but I still am unable to open it in the two browsers.
Any advice is appreciated!

.pdf will open in Reader, but not Adobe Acrobat 8.0

I have a large document that was created in Adobe Acrobat 6.0 and apparently the file was damaged (it's also 4.5 GB). I can open it in Adobe Reader 9, but when I try to open it in Acrobat, it shuts the program down and there is no history of it being opened. I've tried opening it back up in Acrobat 6.0, but it says the file is damaged. Is there a way to fix this or do I have to remake the document?

I do not know how you created the PDF. You might try going back and printing to the Adobe PDF printer. Open AA6 and then select the file that way. Does this work?

Audio file will play on iTunes but not on my Nano

I have an important audio file (in WAVE Audio File format) that plays fine on my iTunes, but won't play on my Nano. It's odd -- the file downloaded to the Nano and appears in a playlist, but when I go to play it, the Nano advances immediately to the next song. Do I need to convert the file into some other format in order for it to be playable by the Nano? (FYI, the audio file is 17.4 MB, if that matters).
Help!

Photoshop CC on Windows 7- No files will open

I am running Photoshop CC, freshly downloaded on 9/26. No files will open and I can not create a file. I select File>Open, but nothing happens. If I go to a PSD file on the hard drive and double-click, it opens Photoshop but nothing happens. I have tried JPG, TIF, PSD, and PNG files, all with the same result - nothing. I am running a PC with Windows 7. I did some searching and saw some people mentioned resetting Preferences and/or Malware, but I have tried resetting Preferences and also several anti-malware programs. There is no change. I'm hoping that someone has an answer for me. Thanks in advance! Carl.

I placed my aperture library on a 1 TB external drive (the file is 300 GB) and Aperture churns and churns but will not open the file. I don't know if the file is too large or if it is the external drive or what? any ideas? Smaller files will open.

If this is an external USB drive, you must understand that USB is really, really slow. There may be nothing wrong except for that.
In my opinion, USB external drives are only acceptable for backups, and to get "near Hard Drive" performance, you need FireWire.

Whenever I open a file of any type, that file will open, as well as multiple other files I do not wish to open. How do I prevent this from happening.

Dealing With The Resume Feature of Lion
Managing Mac OS X Lion's application resume feature.
If you shutdown your computer you should get a dialog asking if you want applications to resume on the next startup. Simply uncheck the box to prevent that from occurring. Open General preferences and uncheck the option to Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps. You can also install a third-party utility to control resume features on individual applications: RestoreMeNot or Application State Cleaner.
It is possible to completely stop the Resume feature although I'm unconvinced that it is that annoying. Nevertheless see the following:
If you have not yet done so you must first make your /Home/Library/ folder visible. Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the prompt paste the following command line:
chflags nohidden ~/Library
Press RETURN. Quit the Terminal application.
In the Finder navigate to the /Home/Library/Saved Application State/ folder. Delete the contents of the folder. Back up to the /Home/Library/ folder. Select the Saved Application State folder. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Sharing and Permissions panel at the bottom click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window.
Quit all open programs except the Finder (this is very important.) Next, navigate to the /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/ folder. Look for a .plist file with "com.apple.loginwindow." in the file name followed by some numbers in hexadecimal. Select the file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and in the Sharing and Permissions panel click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window. If you also find a file with the same filename but with a last extension of ".lockfile," then you should delete it.
The above should eliminate the Resume feature system-wide. Note that any future system updates or upgrades will likely undo these changes. You will then need to repeat this procedure assuming there are no major changes in OS X related to it.

File will open in CS3 but not CS4?
