File won't open on other computer

Hi!
As all of us ia mhaving a HARD time with fireworks on a mac.
however i have avery recent problem, which prevents me from
sharing my file:
my complex woking file (30 pages) won't open on another
computer or crashes on startup.
it's an orginal cs3 / mac file and it won#t pen on another
intel mac. yes i know this might also be a performance issue (
since also my intelcore2 mac need 1-2 min to open the file ), but
since the configuration of the two machines is very similiar there
might t be a problem.
does anybody of you have anythought on this?
usually it helps to copy all data into a new file, but also
this !annoying! workarounf does not help.
what to do?
thx
frido

Please post the link so we can look it over.

File won't open on PC computer anymore

I created a website on a PC with Adobe Muse. I saved it and uploaded it before making a few changes on a Mac computer. Now I cannot open the file on any PC computers. I get an error message saying "This Adobe Muse site file requires a newer version of Adobe Muse. Please update to the latest version." However there is no needed update for the software. If anyone has any solution to this problem I'd appreciate it. I tried importing the HTML but it won't import that either.

Hi,
It seems that you are working on an older version of Muse , whereas the file was created using the latest version. Can you please check if you are using the latest version of Muse or not.
In order to check the version, Please launch Muse , Select Help -> About Adobe Muse CC and please confirm if the version you are using is the same as in this screenshot :- http://prntscr.com/4yjayt
If you are using a different version, Please update Muse to the latest version using the Creative Cloud Desktop Application.
Hope this helps

Files Won't Open On Other Machines

I have a 2 Ghz Intel Core Duo laptop running OS X Version 10.4.8 and am running Logic Express 7.2.3 (961.9).
Recently I created several songs and tried to open them up in two different studios. But every attempt was unsuccessful. Each tim I got a message that my Logic session file was corrupted and could not be opened.
Both studios were using G5s and running current versions of OS X.
In one studio, I tried to open the sessions on both Logic Pro and Logic Express. The other had the identical version of Logic Express as mine. In every attempt I got the same error message.
What could be the problem?
What is the solution?

So you know what I am dealing with.
I was actually present when both of these mishaps occurred (I have been touring around Africa for five months and am now in Capetown South Africa). Anyway, I will take your advice. Thanks for the suggestion.
Ahhhh Africa.
I engineer weekly Radio Shows for Africa,and know all
about their technological hurdles.Getting the local
DJ tracks back to America is quite a challenge.
Yes,it is a good idea to have an extra DVD with
updates to all your software,when visiting the Mother
Continent.and an extra hard drive with your system
installed...just in case the local lions want your
stuff...
As far as knowing that your stuff will work with
their stuff,the only real way is to send a test Logic
song,only with MIDI,and if it opens ok,then maybe
you're good.this will take their engineer only
minutes to test,and they should not chagre for that
time.

FCP 5.1 file won't open in FCP 7

Hi.
I am at my wits end...I have a FCP 5.1 file that I have been working on for years.
I had to upgrade to FCP 7 for reasons I won't go into and now my FCP 5.1 file won't open.
It is a file with footage from P2 cards. It has magic bullet/looks builder used throughout. I am not sure if that is the issue at one point ONE of the messages I got when it crashed (I got a few different ones at different times) was something about looksbuilder not working right.
In a nutshell, it slowly starts to open and then quits. (It gets to about 33 percent open over the course of 45 minutes and then crashes.)
The file is about half a gig and there is plenty of room on the MAC itself so it shouldn't be that the Mac is overtaxed.
I don't know what to do.
I tried opening various back-up copies, etc. because I thought maybe something was just corrupted. NONE of them open.
I tried deleting render files to limit how much it was trying to process when it opened the thing.
I even tried turning off the external drives that hold the media hoping that if it couldn't find the media it would just open the shell of a file for me and maybe I could reconnect it all later. Obviously, grasping at straws...
I am out of options. Do I just need to wipe my computer and reinstall 5.1 from scratch? That would stink because there is another project being worked on on the computer that is a FCP 7 file.
I tried putting a copy of FCP 5.1 back on the computer (so I have 7 and 5.1 on there now) to get it to open, but FCP 5.1 won't work either now (I get General Error 41 - whatever that means) Maybe you can't have two versions of FCP on the computer? Maybe it thinks it got opened in 7 so now it won't work in 5? even though it never fully opened? Guessing...
I'd appreciate any and all help. All I want to do is open the 5.1 file and save it in FCP 7 and work from there.
Thanks!
Shari

Hey Michael:
Thanks for the response. I did something similar in that I opened the file on another computer that had FCP 7 and it was fine. So I saved that. Then I went to my Mac and tried to open that file and it crashed...but it said something about Looksbuilder...so I contacted them and they had me uninstall, reinstall and then fix the preference files for Looksbuilder and it now opens.
YAY!
Thanks again,
Shari

Premiere Pro 4 File Won't Open

Hi all
I have an adobe premiere pro file that won't open. When I double click on it, the load project bar gets to about four fiths of the way, then it just stops. The last time I saved the file, I saved it to my computer, then I saved it to a portable hard drive to back it up (around four minutes later). Both versions of the file won't open. The previous file will open, but I have done 30 hours more work since then (on the new file). I thought it was enough to be saving every few minutes, saving back ups to a portable hard drive... I also have a raid 1 configuration! I was never expecting this. When I leave the Premiere Pro on the Load Project screen, it stays there for hours.
If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi John
Thanks for getting back to me. I just looked in autosave. The file that won't open was last saved at 11:02pm on the 16th. There was an autosave project at 10.25pm on the 16th, and that wouldn't open either (it crashes at exactly the same place as the other one). However, there was an autosave file at 6:17pm on the 16th that would open. Curious though, it doesn't seem to have a lot of the changes I thought I had made by this time. It seems to be earlier than this (although perhaps my memory isn't serving me correctly). Should there be more autosaves that this? I had the program open pretty much that whole time, and nothing between 6:17 and 10:25.
Anyway, that's a start! Something must have happened between 6.17pm and 10.25pm that'd made the file go kaput. I would love to know what, so I can avoid this happening again. First things first though, it'd be fantastic to get the file that isn't opening working.
Thanks for your swift response too, Jim. I opened PP and tried to open the file from the interface. The load project bar stopped at the same place. I can open other projects fine. As to your last suggestion, I created a new project, and went to File/Import then clicked on the file in question. It started importing, then the progress bar froze at exactly the same place. I'm not sure if I did this correctly. Is there another way to import a PP file into an existing PP?
Thanks again for your time. It's just nice to speak to someone about this because I really freaked out when it happened.

Indesign CS4 files won't open in CS6

Installed CS6 on new MBP. Moved CS4 design files over to new computer.
Files won't open in CS6. Get the following message:
Cannot open "filename.indd". The file "filename.indd" is damaged (Error code: 4).
This happens with ALL of my CS4 Indesign files. (*Note: they DO open on old MBP)
I tried exporting one as IDML on old machine - same thing.
Any suggestions? I was told all older version files will open in NEW CS versions. True?

The Voodoo is in the basics. - turn it off...turn it on?
I just quit InDesign CS6 and reopened...now all of my files are opening fine in CS6!
@Bob - just to double check - moved files from old mbp - onto external hd - then brought them over to new mbp...is there a better way?

File won't open in workspaces

File won't open in workspaces. How can I retrieve its contents?

Highlight the file within the workspace, click the down-facing arrow that appears to the right of the file name and choose 'Download'.
Once the file has been downloaded to your computer, open it within the appropriate application.
I suspect that the file you may be referring to is a PDF, but that it's an XFA file. This type of PDF, often created from LiveCycle Designer, cannot be previewed within Workspaces.
Please let us know if you have any questions.

You'll need to include much more information to get a useful answer here: which camera; raw files (assume so, but could be JPEG, TIFF); version of ACR (4.something); computer (Windows, Mac), etc.
Here's a wild guess though - you're using a new (or newish) camera with this older version of PS which (assuming you are trying to open raw files) doesn't support the camera in question. See this FAQ: http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2011/03/why-doesnt-my-version-of-photoshop-or-lightroom- support-my-camera.html
Hope this helps, but as I say, more information will allow folk on this forum to give you a more definitive answer.

Re: itunes won't open Jan 15, 2012 7:46 PM (in response to cratervoid)
1. First check if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
2. If that fails, refer to following article to remove SC Info.lib file:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
3. If that fails, repair your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

Project file won't open

Hi - I am trying to open a project file on my machine done on my friends' computer in Premiere but it says file won't open as it is from a newer version of Adobe Premiere Pro.
I only downloaded Premiere recently and am on the monthly subscription to the cloud so was assuming I would have latest. I can't see how to update it. any clues?
I am operating on Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10.1
Many thanks

Hi,
Please open your Creative Cloud desktop app and check there must be updates for latest version.
Please update and try to open the project.
thank you,

I downloaded my Elements 11 software and resitered it and now it won't open on my computer . . . .

I downloaded my Elements 11 software and resitered it and now it won't open on my computer . . . . do I need to re-install it??

I am working off of Windows 7. My husband restarted the computer and it works fine now. But before you would click on the icon to open the program it would appear as if it were firing up and then just shut down with no message or anything. Not sure but it looks as if it's running ok now! Thanks for responding though!

HELP! Files won't open and previously had Firefox icon instead of DW icons! Leap Year thing?

Hi! I went to update my website, which I do every night before the first day of every month and all the files had a FIrefox icon instead of the usual Dreamweaver one. I have shut down, reinstalled DW MX 2004 but the files still do not open. The icons have now changed to DW but they are not opening with right click, opening from Applications folder, double clicking the file, from get info and open with DW. I am stumped. HELP! Need to update for March 1st.
Is it something to do with Leap Year 29th Feb? Checked the clock in preferences but can't see how this affects it.
Firefox is always updated but the latest version does not seem to be as efficient as previous upgrades. We installed Chrome as well. Do they interfere with each other?

Hi Ken
I wish the 7.1 updater download had helped but it didn¹t. All the files
were backed up before the installation, which went fine.
Mac 10.5.8
We used Disc Warrior to defrag the hard drive, which did not make a
difference.
We recently started using Chrome, so now have 3 browsers in the dock,
Safari, Firefox and Chrome. Do they interfere in any way with each other?
The files, which I hadn¹t touched for a month as I update on a monthly
basis, initially had the Firefox icon.

I am not late with updating the site, which is about New Zealand culture,
month by month (www.englishteacher.co.nz). Probably only the third time I
have been late since 2005. Not a huge amount of traffic, ~300 a month and
free access to content but I would like to solve this problem.
Could a reciprocal link have caused a problem?
At my wits end.
I really appreciate the help though.

CDs from my MAC won't open on other computers

CDs from my MAC won't open on other computers

Any computer, Mac or Windows?
If so, it's likely your drive. You have no problem reading them back because your drive wrote it, so the heads are in the same place to read as write.
The problem is the same as way back to the days of floppy disks. If a drive's heads are out of alignment, disks you create will only work well for you. On any other computer, the tracks are not in the standard position.
To check, try using an external drive (or a different one if that's what you're already using). If the problem goes away using a different drive, then your current one is no good.
