How can I fix "gradient file bad or corrupt" in elements 12
When I start elements 12 a notice comes up that says "the gradient file bad or corrupt". If I click ok the program finishes loading but will not open any existing files, it says they are not valid adobe files, even though they were created in elements 12. I have uninstalled and re installed the entire program, but the message still comes up.
Reset the gradient tool or all tools.Look for a box with lines in it on the tool's option bar. Click & reset..
If that does not fix it, suggest that you reset preferences via Edit>Preferences>General. Reset and relaunch.

How can I save a file as eps in Photoshop Elements 11?
I would like to save a jpg file as EPS using Photoshop Elements 11 but EPS does not appear as an option in the drop down list of available file formats. Looking through the Elements 11 help pages it clearly lists EPS as an available file format and explains that it can be selected from the drop down list when using 'save as'. Why does it not appear to be an option?

How can i fix blank "File Info...." in Photoshop CS5?
I wanted to add metadata to some of my photos. However, when I attempted to open "File Info" there was nothing in the dialogue box. It was just empty. Is there a method for fixing this apart from reinstalling Photoshop?
This might also have something to do with your graphics card.
I don't have cS5 loaded, but it might be close to what CS6 has There are some differences in the acutal panels between the two, but that might be in relation to the swf files. The main file structure looks something like this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\XMP\Custom File Info Panels\3.0 with these folders under 3.0: AMT, bin, custom, panels. There are no files under this folder.
Under the "panels" folder there are all the folders of the tabs: Advanced, audioData, camera, categories, description, dicom, gpsData, history, IPTC, IPTCExt, mobile, origin, rawpacket, and videoData.
Under each of these are folders: bin and location. And the one file manifest.xml.
Advanced:

How can I import raw files from nikon d810 to elements 12
How ca raw files be imported into elements from a nikon d810
If the images are in iPhoto for iOS use the Share to iTunes feature. Then connect your iPad to the computer you normally sync with, open iTunes, select your iPad in the left column of iTunes and in the right column select General. Ten scroll down to find the File Sharing area and select iPhoto. You will see a pane where your photos are listed and you can copy them to your computer. I'm not completely sure the copies will be RAW files but at least you have saved a version of the photos.
I use my iPad to review, display and post photos but I use my computer to actually process RAW files. While I often connect my camera to my iPad to transfer photos I never delete them from the card and ill eventually copy them to more than one hard drive. -
How can I fix error message 150:30 in Premiere Elements?
Running Premiere Elements opens the message 'Licence for this product has stopped working' and Error 150:30. I have restarted my pc but it still appears.
anthony944
What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
Without that information, I will assume Premiere Elements 11, 12, or 13 on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit to give you some ideas of where I am going on this.
You could try going to FLEXnet Licensing in Computer/Manage/Services and Applications/Services and make sure that FLEXnet Licensing in the list is started.
If found stopped, please start it.
There is a Licensing Repair Tool.
Adobe - Adobe Licensing Repair Tool
But what I will work for you will be
a. uninstall the program the usual Control Panel way
d. do a ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts)
CCleaner - PC Optimization and Cleaning - Free Download
c. reinstall of the program with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
Please review and consider and then we can decide what next. If any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

How can I fix the quick time file zh_CN.1proj that is corrupted on my computer.
How can I fix file zh_CN.1proj that is corrupted on my computer. I cannot delete Quick Time because of this file.
The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards? -

I downloaded mountain lion and then the new office suite (word, ppt, excel) but now when I try to display one of my ppt's it says 'ppt cannot open the file...the file may be corrupt, in use, not a type recognized by ppt etc.." how can I fix it?? HELP
Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:

Back then when I had the older update with iTunes i never had this problem with trying to put my mp3 files of music into my iTunes library. Now it doesn't want to be put into the library. Once I try to drag the music file to the iTunes library nothing happens, it just keeps showing a cancellation sign with my mouse. So how can I fix this?
Hi William.
The problem is probably that the index is corrupt and you need to completely re-create it rather than rebuilding individual mailboxes. I have no idea what the situation really is now after having tinkered with the contents of ~/Library/Mail/, though, so the following procedure may or may not work.
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, and making sure that there’s enough space available on the startup disk (a few GB, plus the space needed to make a backup copy of the Mail folder), try this:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong -- e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down.
3. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see an Envelope Index-journal file there, delete it as well.
4. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be “imported”. Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index -- Mail says it’s “importing”, but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder. -
I have recently updated my CC programs to the latest version (CC2014) and now all of my files wont open by default into their respective programs, only if I open the program and go to file>open and open the file from there. How can I fix this?
I have tried 'Open with' and the version of the program now installed on my computer isn't even suggested as an option and when I browse for it, the file wont open with it anywayOn Windows (don't know about Mac), the latest version will always take over the file association, and become the default for indd files. It's impossible to change it.
But there is a plugin for ID that makes this possible. Never tried it myself.

I am a professor and frequently need to open pdfs of academic journal articles from electronic databases. Within the last two or three weeks, when I try to do this using Firefox, only the first page of the pdf displays and the rest are blank. In addition, a bar appears across the top with the message "This pdf file may not display properly." So I have had to switch to Internet Explorer to open the files and do my research. What is going on and how can I fix it so I can open pdf files from the Web in Firefox and have them display properly?
My question is simple - why would you put an application in production that has a lot of bugs? To replace a good and steady Adobe product? My customers will believe that I put a pathetic fallible form online. They are not sophisticated on computers so I just tell them to use IE. Ugh

I have an old mpg video file, taken with a very early model "smart phone", that opens and plays fine in my newly "rebuilt" iPhoto library. I cannot open, edit it or share it with any other software. How can I fix it, to be able to do anything with it?
Detail:
I've recently purchaced a 4TB Thunderbolt drive to store my "vast" music and photo libraries. iPhoto had an issue reading the moved library, so I bought and used iPhoto Library Manager to "rebuild" it. Apart from much of the original data such as date taken & camera used etc, it appears to be working well. The aforementioned mpg video was taken some 9 years ago, using an early model "iMate" smart phone, and opens and plays fine on iPhoto, but I cannot open it with anything else, (I've tried iMovie, VLC players, Wondershare and Handbrake) nor can I share it. I just want to edit it, and share it with family.
Any help would be appreciated...No - not iMovie, VLC, Wondershare or Handbrake... Quick time starts with a "CONVERTING", then I get
I've looked at the "tell me more" links, tried downloading some of the movie players there. I'm begining to think the file is corrupt.
