I am getting the message, "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents."  There was no problem two days ago.  I have Photoshop CC.

Platform, Mac or Win?  OS?  What printer?  Printer driver version?

    When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website using Safari, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." When I save the same PDF file using FireFox it opens up immediately. Is there any way to correct this problem with Safari?

    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.

  • Trying to open Aperture, but I get the message, "There was an error opening the database for the library "/Users/davewasson/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary". - and it forces me to quit. What do I do?

    Trying to open Aperture, but I get the message, "There was an error opening the database for the library “/Users/davewasson/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary”. - and it forces me to quit. What do I do?

    Dave-
    You can try opening the old (problem) library by launching Aperture into Library First Aid mode and choosing to Repair (first option) or Rebuild the library. Before doing this, make a backup copy of the old library, since both Repair or Rebuild will write changes to the library database.
    Repair is the faster and less drastic option, so try that first: After backing up your library, hold down both the Option and Command keys while dragging and dropping the problem library on the Aperture icon. The Photo Library First Aid window appears. Select Repair Database, then click Repair. After some time Aperture should open the library, if possible.
    If that fails launch Aperture back into Library First Aid and select Rebuild Database. Depending on the size of your library this operation could take some time, up to several hours for a very large library. When the main window appears you may have some extra Recovered folders/projects. This operation rebuilds the library from scratch and is usually successful at reviving problem libraries.

    When I try to open my Aperture Library, I get this message: "There was an error opening the database for the library “/Users/alyssabouma/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary”.
    I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the library....Help!!

    lyssalou,
    what is your Aperture version and what is your MacOS X version?
    What happened, before this problem occurred? Did you import images, install software, move the Aperture library?
    I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the library....Help!!
    What do you mean by reinstalling the library? Did you reinstall Aperture?
    You might start the trouble shooting with using the Aperture Library First Aid Tools - repairing the permissions, repairing the library, and rebuilding, if necessary, see:
    Aperture 3 User Manual: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library
    Before rebuilding the library, make a backup of the Aperture Library, if you do not have one.

    Thanks a lot, Frank. The lsregister did the trick! I am testing this on 10.8.2.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24770 : I deleted the "com.apple.LaunchServices.plist", and restarted the Finder, even logged off and on again; did not change anything. The file has not been recreated, so it may not be used anymore.
    http://itpixie.com/2011/05/fix-duplicate-old-items-open-with-list/#.ULZqa6XAoqY
    The direct "copy and paste" from the post did not work: I had to retype it :
    /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
    but then it worked like a charm!
    Cheers
    Léonie
    And btw: I turned on the "-v" option for the lsregister to see, what was going on, and saw plenty of error messages (error -10811); so I repeated the command with "sudo". After that I still saw five iPhotos. Repeating as regular user finally got rid of the redundant iPhoto entries. It looks like registering as super user may be causing this trouble.

  • Can't print to my Canon Pro-100. Get error message:There was an error opening your printer. Printing

    Can't print to my Canon Pro-100. Get error message:There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be availableuntil you have selected a printerm and reopened any documants.

    Your printer driver is having problems.
    Resetting Photoshop's preferences sometimes clears it up (by removing previous print settings that the driver is supposed to read, but sometimes fails at).
    Otherwise you'll have to work with Canon to figure out why the driver is misbehaving.

  • When I clcik to download a pdf file the browser downloads the file but when adobe goes to open it I get often the message"There was an error opening this document. The root object is missing or invalid."

    I also have safari on my computer and if use it and go to the same website I can open the file. there is a similar message if I try to open the file with Preview.

    Sounds like the files are corrupt. Time to restore them from a good backup.

  • Access denied to Aperture backup on external drive.  When I hold the comman key adn open aperture to acces a remote drive I receive the message "There was an error opening the database for teh library "/Volumes/VERBATIM HD/Aperture Library BU.aplibrary".

    When I attempt to open an Aperture backup on a remote drive using the Command key when opening Aperture., I receive the message-
    How do access these files?

    How do I copy the libray onto another drive?  Drag & drop?  Can I put it onto my iMac drive without loosing the Aperture files already there?
    yes, you can drag the library to your internal drive. if it has the same name as your current Aperture library rename it or drag it to a different folder.
    I followed the instrucitons when formatting the drive, although I would not rule out an operator error
    You can see the name of the file system on the drive, when you select the drive in the Finder and press the key combination ⌘I (for File > Get Info). The file system will show in the "General" brick of the Info panel.

  • I can't open aperture-  I get this message:  There was an error opening the database for the library "/Users/Kristy/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary". :

    I can't seem to open Aperture, don't know how to back up the library (I have pics I just put on Aperture last week that aren't backed up) so I can just rebuild the library.  Will I lose all my pics if I choose to rebuild the library?

    don't know how to back up the library
    Simply drag your Aperture library to an external drive with enough free disk space to make a backup copy for now.
    What happened before you first got this error message? Did you import new images into Aperture? Did you install new software? Or update software?
    Did you move your aperture library to a new location?
    Does the panel with the error message show an error log? What does it say? The first 50 lines will suffice.
    Will I lose all my pics if I choose to rebuild the library?
    Rebuild is a save standard trouble shooting operations. But it may take a long time, and if your mac has other problems, in interruption of the rebuild may make things worse, so don't do it without copying your library some where safe.

    Using Photoshop CS6 and after printing approx. 10 cards on an Epson R3000 printer the program gives me a dialog box saying "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents."  Even after closing and reopening the program, the print command is greyed out so I cannot select any printer. This also happens with a Brother laser printer. Both printers will produce a test page out side of the Adobe product. Help!

    I cannot get any help either.  I get the message "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents."  I have reinstalled all drivers, powered off/on all printers (2 of them - a Brother HL - 4040cn and an Epson Stylus Pro 7890 - which all worked fine until this morning).  There appears to be no path to a solution.  I have read all the forums and tried about 20 different suggestions all to no avail.  Reboots, changing cables, reinstalling printers and drivers and Photoshop CS6 - ALL TO NO AVAIL.  On a macbook pro retina with 10.10.3.  This issue is out there and some get solutions - but not all - that's my crowd...the not all crowd.  I have yet to be able to print from CS6 any more.  This is a show stopper and my patience is wearing thin.  And I'm tired of stupid questions like "is your printer powered on?" give me a break.  This appears to be an adobe photoshop cs6 problem - as I can print from every other application.  Anyone have any ideas?  Adobe should have something?...
