Illustrator files do not render with multiprocessing on

I have a comp that uses an AI CS5 file that has transparency. If I render using a single processor it renders fine...about 25 minutes!!!
If I turn Multiprocessing on the render takes about 3 minutes but the AI layer is a white box!
What gives?
The AI file is a simple text layer, no effects.
I have tried 2 procs, 4 procs, 6 procs, etc...I have tried 1 GB per proc, 1.5GB per proc etc...
Mac Pro octo 2.26, Snow Leopard 10.6.6, 16GB ram

Do you have Continuously Rasterize set for the Illustrator layer? There is a known issue with layers based on Illustrator files if they aren't continuously rasterized. You can work around the issue by either turning off Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously multiprocessing or setting the layer to Continuously Rasterize.

How do I resolve: "Could not complete the Crop command because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop" error message?

Photoshop document created in current version of PSCC2014, now will not crop, resize, etc without throwing compatibility error.

Ooops. Hit save reply prematurely.
You may be able to open the flattened composite or the embedded JPEG preview of your file in Adobe Illustrator, GraphicConverter (Mac only) or some such application, but your layers will be gone.
The problem of working across a network is that it's not supported by Adobe:
This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work. It should.
Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photosho

I just tried to open a file that I had saved last night and I got the message:
"Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop."
Normally I would just chalk it up to a corrupt file and redo the project but I've had this happen to me 5 or 6 times in the past two weeks. I dont know what to do!
Things I've tried that haven't work:
Opening in ImageReady and Gimp, changing file extention to .tiff, dropping into photoshop as smart object, opening in Illustrator, re-installing photoshop, deleting old actions/plug-ins that might glitch up the system.
I just started a new job and I'm working on a 2.5GHz Mac Mini (OSX ver. 10.7.4) with Photoshop CS6 (16-bit).
I am NOT saving over a server or anything like that.
I did NOT close photoshop too quickly last night.
I do NOT have any Nortan Anti-virus anything.
I've spend hours reading up on this and every fix that I've found doesn't work.
I've been using photoshop for YEARS and I've NEVER had this problem before.
Please HELP!

There is a problem with the latest update, Mac, and saving a PSD file. Apparently it may not open in CS6, but will open in other versions. They are working on patch.

File is not compatible with this version of Photoshop error

Computer crashed yesterday and now I am getting "File is not compatible with this version of Photoshop" error and unable to opening in PS CS5 or Fireworks CS5. Any ideas? Also tried the PS repair download and would rather not pay $30 to find out it can't do it. Seems like a common error but in all of the forums I haven't found a solid answer. Appreciate some real advise.
Thanks in advance

This is the free app that all the PSD repair hacks are based on: Telegraphics - Free plugins for Photoshop & Illustrator...and other software
There are 3 possible reasons for that error: file corruption on disk, more than 8000 layers in the file, or a layer somehow went over 30,000 pixels in a PSD file (which would be legal in PSB, but not in PSD).

Error from reports from ZAM(Graph or PDF) - File does not begin with '%PDF-'.

I just noticed today that any Graph or PDF report I try to view I get the
following error - Error from reports from ZAM - File does not begin with
'%PDF-'. I tried to just save the file and then open it, but get the same
error. I can open other pdf files I have downloaded from other sites ok.
Anyone have any idea? I haven't done anything to that server that I am
aware of in quite a while.
Thanks
Bill

I took a closer look at the files it downloaded, opened them with notepad,
haer is what it says:
XSL Transform or subsequent processing failedThe document has no pages.

Since changing our computer I have been unable to download ebooks to my Reader Library I get a message Some file types associated with EPUB files are not associated with Reader Library; Waterstones suggest that I may have accidentally created a new Adobe

When I try to download them from the Waterstones website I get a message saying:
‘Some file types associated with EPUB files are not associated with Reader Library. Do you want to associate them now? When I reply yes I get another message; ‘Configuration error unable to update EPUB files check network firewall and try again’.
The ‘books’ are saved in the Download directory and I can’t transfer them from there to my E-Reader. I have not had any problems before, it was very simple; I saved the download and it automatically went into the Reader Library.
I contacted HP and they said it is a software error and suggested I contact Waterstones. I contacted Waterstones Customer Support and got the following response:
As the error message is specifically mentioning the firewall it does sound like something in the firewall settings is stopping the download from taking place correctly. However, the files should not be being saved to the Download folder. It would be worth trying again by going to your Digital Order History on your Waterstones.com account and pressing the download button, and then making sure to press "Open" not "Save". When you press Open rather than Save it should give the option to open the file with Adobe Digital Editions. If the firewall message still comes up then I'm afraid something is blocking it on your end.
If the above "Open" download method works but you then still get an error message it could possibly be that you have accidentally created a new Adobe ID when setting up on the new computer, rather than signing in with your old Adobe ID. It would be worth trying the aforementioned download technique again first, but if problems did still persist it would be worth calling Adobe themselves on 0207 365 0735, as they should be able to sort out any account issue.
In response to the first para of Waterstones email I already do what they suggest I do press ‘Open’ not ‘Save’ but I don’t get the open with Adobe Digital Editions (we have installed Adobe Digital Editions on the new computer. Waterstones say we may have ‘accidentally created a new Adobe ID when setting up the new computer’ does that mean that we shouldn’t have installed Adobe Digital Editions on the new computer as it would have already been there? How do I sign in with my old Adobe ID?

Hi all after attampting to get some supoport from adobe by phone.... nice people infurating policys as far as support for digital editions or DRM is conserned... However I got no where with support.
I ended up instaling Digital editions on my desktop PC and going through the motions of registering and borrowing a book then returning it. Then I trying on my iPad, Bluefire worked, Over drive did not so I completely removed Overdrive and reinstalled and re registered. all working now.
Maybe some one at adobe did something. Maybe the install of the adobe DE client on a PC corrected what ever was out of wack with my account. Mayby the server that my account lives on did a scan disk and corrected a bad clustrer.
What ever happend My account is actiove and working again. hope this helps others.

Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of photoshop

Hello,
I'm a beginner in PS. I was edit TIFF file in PS. Size of file is 21x89.1(22.6 MB). Then suddenly power - cuted. But after 5 min turn on PC and PS can't open my TIFF file.
Error is (could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of photoshop)
What should I do, how I open this TIFF file? I realy need to open this file?
Please help me...
Regards, Suvd.S

Out of curiosity, were you actually saving the file at the moment the power cut off, or had you just saved it?
If not, I don't understand the reason the file should have become corrupted. If it was successfully saved on disk from the prior save operation, just shutting off the power on Photoshop would lose your current edits, but the file should still be intact.

PO PDF Error - File does not Begin with '%PDF-'

Hi,
I am working on Implementing PO PDF with XML data and RTF Template. I have created a new template in XML Publisher and followed the following set up steps
Setup / Organizations / Purchasing Options / Control TAB / set 'PO Output Format' = 'PDF'
setup / purchasing / document types / select "Standard Purchase Order" / Set the Document Type Layout to your new template.
When I view the document from PO Summary > inquire > View Document, I get an adobe reader error
'File does not begin with '%PDF-', how ever when I preview it from the template definition, it opens fine.
I tried running PO Output for communication with my custom template but I don't see the parameter 'Purchase Order Layout'. The last parameter in the list is 'Include Blanket'.
Am I missing any set up steps? However when I use the standard Purchase Order Layout in Document Types set up, the Inquire > View Document created a PDF output.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sharmila

I encountered same error in BPA Invoice Print. I remove a MLS function from the program definition and this error disappeared. Have not fully investigated but maybe this will help. Thanks.

CS5: Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photosh

After several hours creating a PSD file in Photoshop CS5 I attempted to revert some changes and got this error "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop".
I closed the file and restarted Photoshop and still get this error.
I restarted the computer and still get this error. Now my hours of work are WASTED!
This file was created using Photoshop CS5 Extended and was never in any other software.
Details:
Mac Photoshop CS5 (12.0 running in 32 bit mode)
File had a video layer (h.264)
MaxBook Pro 2.8Ghz
OSX 10.6.3

I was able to open the file in Photoshop CS2 and all layers were intact. PS CS2 gave me the message: "A layer is corrupt and will be discarded." Turns out that was the video layer. The file itself was fine and I am again working on it in PS CS5.
Which leads me to ask: If a video layer gets corrupted why can't PS CS5 open it?
PS CS2 had no problem opening the file, it just flatteded the video layer - it even kept the current key frame.
Additional info: Just before the file went bad I made a level adjustment to the video layer and set a keyframe in the animation panel. Then I saved and got the error "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photosh' in Photoshop Macintosh". Also the source H.264 video file appears to be fine, it's only a 5 second clip and it play fine in every app - even PS CS5.

Could not complete your request the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop.

User has been working on a photoshop document for a whole day, when they came to open it the next day the were presented with the error message could not complete your request the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop.
The file has been saved locally and hard drive and RAM are working as they should. Does anybody else have any idea to the cause of this problem. the file is 582MB in size. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like it's corrupt.
Have you any backups or other versions?

Error message: File is not compatible with this version of Photoshop

When I try and reopen a psd file I have created, I get the message "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop"
Used to get this on occasional files using CS2, have now started getting it on CS3 files. The only way to get round it is to redo the work!
Am using Photoshop CS3, V.10 on a G5, OSX 10.4.11. Which is connected to a PC network.

Ran into the same message on files created by one of our designers. His computer needed a "cleansing" to stop corrupting files. Files were actually being corrupted locally, so it wasn't only a server issue...at least in our case. One thing that we did that "sort of" worked...we transferred the file to a PC and ran a shareware utility that repairs PSDs (Advanced PSD Repair Software). It said it repaired the file successfully, BUT it separated the files into a couple of hundred individual documents. Each layer and layer mask was a separate file. I didn't see any setting to recover as a composed file so I guess this is just how it works. If your file is not heavily layered and complex, I guess this might work for you, but, like I told the designer, I ain't goin' in there and reconstructing your layers. =) I know this doesn't help if you don't have access to a PC with Photoshop loaded in it, but thought this might help some poor soul along the way. Good luck...
