Issue opening 6.5 composition in CS3

Hello everybody,
I allready started a thrad over at mograph; perhaps here are some more people who could help.
Does anybody know a solution for the problem that sometimes occur when you open up a AFX 6.5 comp with PSD Layers that are animated in it, in CS3 or CS4. We often got the issue that AFX misinterprets the anchor points and therefore the placement of the layer gets totaly damaged. I've got that problem on Mac OSX 10.5 and on Windows (xp64) machines.
any help or advice is welcome
cheers

Well, I never use PSDs much and try to create everything in AE or my 3D programs I must admit. This obviously severely limits the probabilities of such things happening. At the times I have, I have not noticed any such issues other than the ones we ironed out during the Beta of CS4, but that's a different topic entirely...Can you post one of those jinxed files for testing? If you can't put it up publicly, just send it via mail (mylenium<\|/>at<\|/>mylenium<\|/>dot<\|/>de).

Can't open EPS files in Illustrator CS3 since installing CS6

I'm on Windows 7, and need to be able to open .eps files with Illustrator CS3. Since installing CS6 yesterday I'm no longer able to associate EPS files with Illustrator CS3. When I right click an eps and go to "open with", only Illustrator CS6 is listed. When I "choose default program", only Illustrator CS6 is listed. If I "browse" and manually select the Illustrator CS3 executable, it still defaults to CS6. Using the same process with .ai files works fine, there is no issue. However these .eps files are not behaving like .ai files. If anyone could suggest a solution to my problem I would be very grateful.
EDIT:
Also, attempting to set the default program through the "set associations" control panel doesn't work, after selecting the Illustator CS3 executable it still shows up as CS6.

Some research solved my issue. Need to create a registry entry for Illustrator CS3 (v13) in the eps file extension section of the windows 7 registry.
1. Navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.eps\OpenWit hProgids
2. Create a new "binary value" key called "Adobe.Illustrator.13" (leave the value blank).
That's it. CS3 is now a valid choice for eps files. Hope this helps anyone who has the same issue.

Having mail 4.5 issues- open mail and get a new features message so I must import messages first in order to use mail 4.5. Just recently put in MAC OSX 10.6.7. Once it imports click done to start using mail, but end up with the rainbow wheel? Now What?

Having mail 4.5 issues- open mail and get a new features message that says in order to use the new features, I must import existing messages into the new version first in order to use mail 4.5. Just recently put in MAC OSX 10.6.7. Once it imports I am to click done to start using mail, but end up with the rainbow wheel of death and it also says you cannot use mail until the import is finished? Now What?

Is Mail still "spinning"? If it's been doing that for a while, I'd kill it, using either Activity Monitor or the OS X application picker. Then relaunch Mail and see what happens.
Two "by the ways":
1) Your system details mention an PPC iMac. Since a non-Intel Mac can't run OS X 10.6, you seem to have another Mac. You might want to consider updating your system details.
2) You seem to have been misled by the poor labeling of the message composition fields on this forum into trying to enter your entire post into the "subject" field. In the future, just enter a summary of your post there and the main text into the field below it.

Opening Camera Raw file in CS3 Bridge

I have CS3 Bridge and CS3 Dreamweaver instaled as well as Photoshop CS2.
I want to open Camera Raw files in CS3 Bridge. The Bridge Help file says:
"Select 'Edit Camera Raw Settings' in Bridge General Preferences to open Camera Raw dialog box in Bridge" (as opposed to opening in Photoshop.)
But my Bridge General Preferences has no such checkbox option. When I open a CR file in CS3 Bridge, the file opens in Photoshop CS2.
How do I get the file to open in CS3 Bridge.
Thanks, CMA

I had a problem with this previously and came up with the following:
If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF and hold down the shift key, Camera Raw will not be scheduled
If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF image, the image will always schedule Camera Raw if the Bridge menu item Edit/Preference/Thumbnails has Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG and TIFF checked (Bridge JPEG and TIFF Checked).
If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF image and Bridge JPEG and TIFF is unchecked and the JPEG or TIFF image has previously been processed by Camera Raw, Camera Raw will be scheduled if Camera Raw Preferences dialog has Always open JPEG files with settings using Camera Raw or Always open TIFF files with settings using Camera Raw checked.
If I am in Bridge and double click a TIFF image and the TIFF file has layers, the TIFF file will not schedule Camera Raw.
In Photoshop Preferences (Edit/Preference/File Handling) there is a check box titled Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG files. I checked the check box and opened a JPEG image in Photoshop Camera Raw was scheduled. I clicked Open Image in ACR and then saved the image in Photoshop (JPEG saved in Photoshop after passing thru ACR). I then Unchecked the check box and opened the JPEG file Camera Raw was not scheduled.
The only action I see for the Photoshop File Handling check box is to either schedule or not to schedule JPEG images. I do not see any related action for TIFF files in Photoshop. My expectation is that TIFF files will open in Photoshop not ACR.

Issues opening CC programs

I have just changed users on my MacbookPro (I had to use a corporate user account they assigned me) and now I'm having consistent issues opening Illustrator, InDesign and especially Photoshop.
What happens is that when I go to open say Photoshop, I will get the icon in the dock to bounce a few times and then nothing happens. I've tried opening a file by clicking on the file and the same thing. I've restarted and then I can open Photoshop. It seems to happen if I have other CC software open. I tried reinstalling Photoshop but no luck.

Moving the discussion to Photoshop General Discussion.

Bridge won't open JPG files in Photoshop CS3

I changed my preferences to remove the check-box "prefer Adobe camera RAW for Jpeg and TIFF files" , restarted Bridge and tried to open a JPEG from bridge directly into photoshop. But double clicking on the image in bridge opened "paint".
So I change the Bridge preferences back to Prefer ACR for JPEG again, restart Bridge, and then bridge tells me that it cannot find Photoshop CS2. CS2 is not even loaded on this machine anymore.
So then I go to the file type associations preferences and "browse" to the CS3 version of photoshop, restart bridge, and double click on a JPEG and it again says that CS2 cannot be found. I change the association again using the "browse" to CS3 and then it opens the image up in "Paint" again.
Why won't Bridge open JPEG's in ACR anymore?
Why won't bridge open JPEG's in Photoshop CS3 anymore?

Bill, thanks for the reply. But I do not think that the file associations is the answer here. If I am using bridge to open files in ACR or Photoshop, I do not believe that I need to change the windows file type association. I have other PC's where the file association is not photoshop and bridge works fine opening these files. In fact, when using windows explorer to navigate JPG files, I do NOT want photoshop being opened to preview these images. On my other PC's, I can both preview JPG's using windows picture viewer, and open the JPG's via bridge in ACR. Furthermore, Photoshop CS2 is NOT the application listed for JPG's in the folder options in the control panel. So the problem that I have here has something to do with Bridge or perhaps something is corrupted int he files.
The reason why I suspect a corruption, is that not all files behave in the same manner in bridge. Some files with the same extension open as I would expect, while others do not. I did not realize this fact when I made my original post.

Couldn't open RAW files in Bridge Cs3

Hi,
the RAW files (CR2) cannot be opened/developed with using Bridge CS3. When I double click the file (CR2) in Bridge, it just gave this prompt in Photoshop, "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file."
I used to be able to open Raw files in my friend's G5 using Bridge. When I double click the file, it will automatically open the Canon Camera Raw with settings for me to adjust before I develop the picture. However when I tried on my own computer, it came out the prompt I mentioned above.
Please advise what is the problem with my Bridge. Do I need to reintall the whole of Adobe suite?
Thank you so much.

Brian
first check again the right location of (only one!) ACR plug in (see post 3 of this thread for details)
Then quit Bridge, in user library go to preferences and manual trash the plist file for Bridge (com.adobe.bridge2.plist), restart again with option key and again reset prefs.
If this is still not working create a new user account and check if Bridge is working correctly in this new user, if so your user account is corrupt and you should do maintenance for the OS (Archive and install).
If still no luck go again to the user library/cache/Adobe/BridgeCS3/cache. This cache file can grow to the enormous portions, check the size and if you wish make a copy for back up. Then delete this whole cache file by dragging it to the trash. Again delete plist file and again restart option to refresh prefs. By deleting the cache file you will need to recache all your folders so it is a very hard way but it worked for me several times.

Opening raw files in photoshop cs3

can anyone help please, can i open raw image files in cs3? do i need a plug in or a download?

You need Adobe Camera Raw (ACR). Go to the download page and download the last vesion for CS3, believe it was 4.6.
Be aware that each version of Photoshop has its own series of ACR.
So if you have a latter model camera it might not work with an older ACR. To check look here http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html

Issue opening .cp files in Captivate 5

Good evening,
I am having issues opening some of our .cp files in Captivate 5. We are currently in the process of converting .cp -> .cptx -> HTML5. I handful of project files, when trying to open, this is what I get:
Just to clarify;
The file is not open already
I have more than enough hard drive space
CPU usage, as well as RAM usage is less than 25%
They are reading as .cp files, and this isn't the only file that is doing this
Any help would be greatly appreciated regarding what might be going on.
Regards,
Geoffrey

I found a workaround. If I open in Captivate 3, overwrite the file, then resave, it seems to open fine in Captivate 5. Ultimately, I wish there weren't so many hoops to jump through just to get these bad boys converted to HTML5. The process now is;
Open .cp in Captivate 3
Save in Captivate 3
Open .cp in Captivate 5
Save as .cptx
Open .cptx in Captivate 7
Publish to HTML5
Save in Captivate 7
Is there an easier way to this process?

I was having an issue opening a spreadsheet with the file extension .xlsm. This appears as an attachment from a client which means macros were utilized when creating the spreadsheet. The problem lies in. The iPads ability to open the attachment. I downloaded the numbers app thinking this would be a default software to open any and all spreadsheets.
Please Help!
Ipad 2- iOS5

You may need a version without macros on it. Unfortunately, pretty much all apps are skinned down versions of their original program, often with less functionality. For example in a word document I can italicize,bold and underline, but I only have a handful of fonts to play with and I don't think I can insert tables or images.
It is very possible that the app simply cannot run macros, which means that document may never work on an iPad.

Just installed 10.5,issues opening iphoto and everything in general is slow

I just finished installing Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.
I am noticing that everything is a little slower - even clicking on MAC HD - takes about 3-4 seconds to show all files/folders etc...
The other thing, is since the install, i cannot open iPhoto!!! Says it having issues opening it, to "relaunch" "ignore" or "send report".
What's going on? I think i liked 10.3.9 better.....
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

You need to buy iLife '06 or later to run iPhoto in Leopard.
There is a slight risk in migrating from the old iPhoto to the new one you may lose photos. The fact you didn't backup prior to installation says you are not properly prepared to upgrade to Leopard. Backup your data to a second hard drive following my FAQ* for user data backup:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
And then once you reinstall the older operating system on the non-backup drive with an erase and install, reimport the data to the older operating system, backup again a clone backup at least twice. Then you'll be prepared to upgrade to Leopard if you want to buy iLife '06 or later.

Cannot open JPEG images in Photoshop CS3

When I try to open jpeg pictures in photoshop cs3, i get an error: "Could not complete your request because an unknown or invalid JPEG marker type is found."
It has just recently begun doing this, like maybe three days ago. Has anyone ever seen this error, or know how to solve it?
my system specs... AMD Turion tl-60 @ 2.0 GHz, 4gb Ram in vista 32 SP1, nvidia ge-force 7600, main hdd 200 GB 7200 RPM drive, 2nd hdd 80 GB 5400 RPM drive

I am getting errors (same as at top of thread, "invalid JPEG marker") saving a TIF as a JPEG, and then attempting to reopen the JPEG.
It seems to mostly work OK the first time, but if I then reopen the same TIF and save as a JPEG again - that JPEG will usually be corrupted. If I close Elements 2 each time, before opening a TIF and saving another JPEG, there is no problem.
I tried opening the corrupt JPEG with several other programs, and it definitely is corrupted.
This error did not occur several months ago as far as I am aware. We have tried this on all 4 of our computers. I am thinking that a Windows Update may be causing the problem. I tried using System Restore to go back to April 17th, but after 45 mins it announced that it couldn't restore, so I am reluctant to try another date.)

Open Nef (Raw) file in CS3

Hi,
When trying to open a Nef (Raw) file from Nikon D90 in Photoshop CS3 the following happens:
- Nikon Scan 4.0 tries to open (why scan?)
and deliveres the message "buffer overrun,
program must be terminated", the header
for this message is "Visual C++ runtime
library"
The default application to open Nef files
is Nef launcher 1.2 according to Adobe Bridge, so why this Nikon Scan 4.0 fuss?
So please tell me what to do to be able to
open Nef files in Photoshop CS3.
Thank You,
Martti

I should have written a bit more. The latest update for ACR, compatible with Photoshop CS3 is version 4.6. If this is too old for your camera* you have to use the DNG convertor
* I suggest you do some reading (especially the links at the top) in the ACR Forum at http://www.adobeforums.com/webx?13@@.3bb6a85c.
Further questions would be better posted there. Include exact system and camera details.
The instructions on how to install are all there too.
