I cannot open files- whether my own or from another source

Every time I go to open a file from the documents I edited in Photoshop Elements 10, this error message shows up:
What in the world is going on here? I also cannot open up PDF links -- another error message comes up. I originally started a similar discussion in the Photoshop Elements forum but was directed to the Acrobat forum because it seems this is more of an Acrobat issue. How can this be fixed? P.S. I did not try to attach this file in the image below to an e-mail or anything like that. I cannot open it in the documents files and can only open it in the Elements Organizer or Editor.

Right click on a PSD file and select "Open with...". In the following dialog, select Photoshop Elements and keep the checkbox to use that as the default on.

Jenn,
there is not just one Acrobat forum (you can see the list here;
http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat ) - this forum is about the
Acrobat SDK (software development kit), and is the wrong place to post a
question about how to use Acrobat or Reader. Take a look at the list and
pick a forum that's better suited.

OK, if you are double clicking a psd file and Acrobat launches to open it, than your system Open With association has gotten mixed up.
The normal fix would be to Right click a PSD and from the shell options choose Open With...Don't select Photoshop yet,
From the next dialog, toggle to radio button Always Use The Selected Program... and select or Browse to Photoshop

Cannot open files and dirs with spaces from most qt-based applications

Hello,
I noticed that I can't open any file or folder that have spaces in the path because an error pop-up appears stating that there is no such file or directory, the error includes the full path but it's "urlencoded" in the sense that spaces are replaced with "%20".
I experienced this behavior in most qt apps: clementine (open containing folder of a song), retroshare, calibre (try to open a book or its folder). Everything works with gtk: pcmanfm, firefox.
I tried changing the default file manager with xdg-mime (switched from pcmanfm to qtfm) but the result's the same. It really seems that qt is trying to open a urlencoded path and xdg-open produces the error.
Any idea? qtfm works, even if it is a qt application, maybe because it's qt5?

I've used, for this, 3 languages on local-gen
on my config
pt-br
pt-br
en-us
On my tries, the spaces, on real, were "language symbols" thar are incompreensible to my current language, and, turns into inacessible

Cannot open files,

I cannot open files, whether jpeg, raw or tiff. I have a PC (notebook). PS10 has stopped opening files. I was in the middle of doing a panorama when it froze, and since then it will not open anything

Hi Goldfinchabc, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Tiger Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If for some reason you can't find your Install Discs, at least try from the Safe Boot onward.

CS5 InDesign cannot open files in the InDesign CS5 document format

I'll be working in InDesign CS5 with no problems then at some point I'll double click on an InDesign file and a window comes up and says - InDesign cannot open files in the InDesign CS5 document format. Sometimes when this happens I have to completely reboot my whole system before I can get InDesign to function correctly. Is this a flaw with CS5? Did not happen with previous versions. It doesn't always happen but I can't figure out what causes it. Would appreciate anyones help. I'm getting to really HATE InDesign!!

I have not uninstalled and reinstalled, but I did just switch over to another workstation using Time Machine. The previous system was Leopard. This one is running Snow Leopard.
I'm not sure how to parse this. When you say "switch over to another workstaiton using Time Machine" do you mean, "started using another machine that happens to be using Time Machine for backups and is also running 10.6 instead of 10.5"?
Or do you mean, "Used the Time Machine program to upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6?" If you mean the second one, well, I can't say I am surprised that things are messed up. And that would make your problem rather different than the other posters, which is good reason for you to have started your own thread (and thus your own solution)....
I'm a little bit leary of getting in and changing things in Terminal, without understanding what I am changing. Plus this is a workstation at work, so if I screw something up, that is not a good things, and I don't have time to spend a day fixing things back up again, with the way our workload is.
Well, you can find a lot of marginal documentation about lsregister and Launch Services, but I wonder whether your understood the ramifications of messing with Time Machine (or maybe I have misinterpretted you!). I'd be surprised if you found another way to fix this, other than uninstall/reinstall.
Good luck.

In CS4, "Cannot open file" "Please upgrade your plug-ins..."

Greetings,
I am using InDesign CS4 on a PC. I am trying to open an .indd file created by our marketing department. I don't know what version of InDesign they use nor whether they work on Macs or PCs.
When I double-click to open the file, I get a "Cannot Open File" popup box. The box reads "Cannot open docname.indd. Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign." It then lists 18 different plugins:
ASSIGNMENTS.RPLN
TEXT.RPLN
SPREAD.RPLN
MASTER PAGE.RPLN
TEXT ATTRIBUTES.RPLN
.... and 13 more.
When I go to Help > Configure Plug-Ins, I can see that I do have all of these plug-ins. But apparently they are not the latest versions.
Anyone know how I can update these plugins? I have searched for them on the Adobe website, but no joy.
Thanks in advance.
Jen

It's a safe bet that they are working in CS5. The only way to get those plugins is to install CS5 on your machine.
You could ask your marketing department to export an IDML file from CS5, which you can open up in CS4, but it might fail horribly (and it's guaranteed to lay out incorrectly if they've used any tools in CS5 that aren't in CS4). If you rely on this workflow, by regularly using a document going back and forth between CS5 and CS4, chances are very, very good that it will fail at a critical moment. The only really safe thing to do here is to get everyone using the same version of InDesign.

A networking error has occurred: Cannot open file (-3001)

When I attempt to use Software Update I get the following message: "A networking error has occurred: Cannot open file (-3001)"
I am connected to the Internet, can connect with iDisk no problem. Manual downloading also works.
Any ideas? Do I trash a corrupted file or what?
Many thanks in advance.

I troubleshot this problem with a helpful Apple tech person who provided a workaround:
Establish a second identity. After you log out of your own identity and into the second identity, you can successfully use software update. He had me trash a number of items deep within the system but nothing else worked. I also ran the Utilities program both off the system and the 10.5 disk with no effect.
So far then, the only solution appears to be the second identity route or to manually download and apply updates. Quite a mystery I'd say!
Any ideas out there?

Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
 Cheers, Tom

I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

Canon 1DX support was added to ACR in version 6.7, 7.1. An updated CS6 should be at level ACR 8.6. If your ACR is not at level 8.6 try using CS6 menu Help>Updates. If that does not install ACR 8.6 try downloading the ACR and DNG 8.6 converter and see if ACR 8.6 will install into your CS6.

I am in the middle of a job using CS 6, but at the same time opening the Creative Suite apps. I created an InDesign file in CS 6, saved it, and now I can't open it. I'm getting this message: Cannot open file because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.1). You must use that version or later to open the file." AARRGGHH! So how do I access the file?

Sounds like you opened and saved it in CC, so now you need to go back to CC and either complete the project there, or export to IDML to take it back into CS6.

Error Message when installing updates: "Cannot open file (-3001)"

I have a MacBook3.1. with Mac OS 10.5.7. Three days ago I installed 5 to 6 updates for iTunes, iDVD, AirPort Express, Java, etc. After the installation, I could not access the internet because my AirPort wireless on the Mac was off (non-existent). I could not even scan for my network. I could not access iTunes, in fact when I opened iTunes, the application got stuck and I could not even "force quit" the application. I went to the Apple Store and was told to Re-install the original OS discs (10.5) received with the MacBook, which I did. After the installation things seemed to be back to normal. I was able to access the internet, etc. However, I could not open iTunes because and I paraphrase "the iTunes version that created/supported the application is not.....". OK so I need to update the software. Now, when I tried to update the software with the newly installed "re-install" 10.5 OS I received the following message:
"A networking error has occurred: Cannot open file (-3001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again."
Meanwhile, I was searching the internet googling the above message. So internet access was not the issue. I decided to create a "test" admin account to see if I could update from another account. Low and behold, I was able to access and update each new software update from the new "test" account and ultimately open iTunes from my personal (main) account.
Very confused and could use some guidance. Any ideas?

Welcome to Apple Discussions:
My general rules:
Never install more than one update at a time - especially those requiring a reboot.
Whenever possible, use the manual updates and for OS updates, always use the manual combo update.
If a problem does occur, reinstall any "bad" updates with manual updates. Yes, they can be reapplied.
Again, one at a time.
