Issues when opening files with pse9..need help

i am helping a friend with her images that have been saved on a disc as a .psd file, she would like to use her pse9 to view them but when i go to open the file i get this message in pse9 stating "this document uses unsupported color mode..." and then asks me to convert rgb and then the image looses the color. i have looked online for everything i can think of and still can not find an answer. do i have to open with an older adobe photoshop in which i think that was what it was orginally saved with or am i doing something wrong...these images are very important to her and i dont know much about these programs..please any help or suggestions would be nice..
                                                  Thank you

midnight24,
In your initial post you stated that the files are .psd files.
We learn now that they were created in an alien program. So be it.
You state that you cannot open them due to ?corruption. Something about a video game, the relevance of which escapes me.
Suggest that you do the following:
Download Irfanview at www.irfanview.com. This is a free program which will probably open the files.
If so, save them via Irfanview, and open the newly saved files in PSE. Do this with a test file to be sure that it works.
Report back with your progress.

  • Dreamweaver very slow when opening files with external links

    Is there any way to fix Dreamweaver CS5 (Windows 7, 64bit) when opening files with external references?
    For example, I have a very simple CSS file, and toward the top the file has a line that says:
    @import url("https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Ubuntu:500,700");
    This causes the file to take around 20 seconds to open in DW. If I comment out the line or remove it, the file opens almost instantly. This behaviour is also present in files that contain an SSI.
    DW often crashes before being able to open the file and I need to restart the app.
    Can I disable DW from attempting to load the references?? It's obviously what is causing the issue IMO and would love to make DW workable again!

    "Enable Related Files" isn't the fix for this issue. It's slightly different - I wanted to still load related files, but only the ones local to the file I was editing.
    The fix was to use DW's Resolve To IP Address feature. It required adding a registry value - it fixed the issue straight away

  • PS CS5 stalls when opening file with type layers

    Macbook Pro / 10.6.7 / 4GB RAM / 2GHz i7 / CS5 12.0.4.x64. No extra plugins or anything. New system, clean install from last week.
    When I open a file (any size/color/dimensions) that has type layers PS with hang for about 25 seconds, then come back just fine. If I clear the font cache (I use FontExplorer X 3) the problem will go away for a brief time (minutes?), then come back. Close and reopen a file, same hang. Close PS, reopen PS, reopen file, same hang.
    Files with no font layers are not affected — no hang, no delay, snappy... unless a file with type layers is already open, then there is the same delay.
    If a file with type layers is open in PS and hung on open, and I open/double-click it again from the finder I get another hang.
    Turing off font preview makes no difference, turning off OpenGL makes no difference.
    But, turning a font on or off in FontExporer does clear the problem for a while.
    Any thoughts?

    It looks like the plug in was the culprit. I have it turned off and haven't had the problem in a while (though I haven't used PS in a bit on text-heavy projects either).
    Thanks for the help.

  • Weird CS4 hanging issue in windows Vista when opening files with PS already loaded

    I just installed the demo. I have a dual monitor setup running Windows Vista Ultimate x64 with 8GB ram ...
    It appears I have both the 32bit and 64bit versions of PS CS4 installed. If I open either of these apps, then choose say a jpg on my desktop, right-click in windows, choose, 'open with' and select 'Adobe Photoshop CS4', then PS hangs - period. After a while, clicking the title bar of the app (which is a kind of menu bar in this version) causes it to return to the old look windows title bar where it shows my image name and the zoom etc, but with the usual (Not Responding) at the end of the title bar text!
    It does this no matter which version (32 or 64bit) is presently loaded. It also does it if I have CS4 loaded and I select 'Edit with Photoshop' in Lightroom 2.1 (my main app which is configured to output files in 16bit PSD format).
    Another weird quirk I found in CS4 - if I select 'Help', 'System Info' it displays the info on my second monitor, not my first! I figure this by the screen res shown as my second monitor (monitor 3 in Vista) is only running 1280x1024. Not sure if this has an effect on which monitor profile is used by PS - I would hope not as my 1st monitor is my calibrated one!
    Thanks, Paul

    Freeagent - I just did some more testing and figured the issue I think! I had selected 'Enable OpenGL Drawing' in Performance preferences and even though I have the very latest nVidia driver (downloaded today) this still causes this issue!
    One issue I have noticed though since figuring how to fix this - I have 2 monitors and on the left one I have the panels un-docked and laid out neatly on the desktop. I then have the main PS window with it's height shrunk as slim as possible and filling the top width of my 2nd monitor. In CS3 when I open an image, it generally remembers where the last one opened and uses the same place - this includes if I had the image in its own window on my main monitor. In CS4, it seems to want to open them in tabbed dialogs within the PS main window and for some reason they are on minimal magnification, so I need to drag the tab over to my main monitor every time and zoom in to get a decent size displayed.
    Is there anywhere to configure where you want it to open images?
    Thanks, Paul

  • Issue when opening Maps with N78

    Just recently, my phone's caught some kind of little (but annoying) glitch in it's software.
    Whenever i access Maps (whether through the shortcuts on the front screen, or through the menu), it brings up the 'Last devices used' section of Bluetooth.
    I have options to either select one of the recently found Bluetooth devices, search for more, or to cancel.
    Not a huge issue, and certainly not one that affects the phone's performance, but it still bothers me.
    When i select a program, i don't want to have to keep getting rid of the other program it's opening up, before i can use what i want in the first place.
    Bear in mind, also, that i use Maps when on the move in the car (in its cradle, of course). Making this glitch much more inconvenient.
    Is anyone else having this problem, or (more importantly) has anyone got an idea of how to solve this?

    Hi stormbreaker81
    Could only suggest proceeding down the following route in case any of the software has become corrupted.
    To restore your phone to the original factory default settings, press the Menu > Tools > Settings > General > Factory settings. Here you need to enter the default Nokia lock code (generally 12345 unless altered by yourself). After the reset, the device may take a longer time to power on.
    To hard reset/format Nokia N78 (all data will be lost), follow the below mentioned steps:
    1. Turn off the mobile phone.
    2. Press and Hold the following three buttons: green Call Answer button, “*” button, and “3″ button.
    3. Whilst keeping these three buttons, press the power button to switch on the device and only release your fingers when the screen displays the Nokia Logo and the language selection menu.

    We all can learn from this. Whenever you get stuck in a customer-service situation that goes nowhere, as soon as you become aware of the futility, get the name and employee ID of the person, then say, "I don't mean to be rude, I think we're both wasting our time. Perhaps you weren't trained for this issue, or perhaps your system isn't displaying the correct information. It doesn't matter, because I'm not getting proper customer support this way. Please ESCALATE this to your highest-level manager IMMEDIATELY. If that person isn't availabe, ESCALATE me to that person's highest-level manager. If you haven't been given the proper training, you can use this to inform your manager that you need the training. Thanks for trying to help. I appreciate it. I have copied and saved this chat session. NOW PLEASE ESCALATE THIS CASE AS I HAVE REQUESTED ABOVE. I'm waiting now... "
    The point is that you're a customer, and the company needs customers, so the individual who's failing to deliver good service needs to be identified so they can be properly trained, and so that problems in the system can also be identified, but more important is that you get the service you're entitled to.
    If you search the forum for similar questions, you'll see the kind of information that the volunteer users like yourself on the forum need to know about your system and files involved, so they can help you better.
    Good luck.

    To be completely honest, FCPX is a RAM hog. It just is. But, RAM is relatively cheap, and the pay-off is good.
    4GB is right on the edge, IMHO. 16G is ideal.

    What version of Bridge and Photoshop and what platform? Mac or Windows?  I can point you to a downloadable installer.
    If the cdrom was damaged, it may be the problem.
    You would uninstall and use the CC/CS Cleaner to remove any remnants before reinstalling.

    If you are unable to enter the passcode into your device, you will have to restore the device to circumvent that passcode.
    Is the music purchased from iTunes? If it is you can contact iTunes support and ask them to allow you to re-download the music that you purchased from iTunes.
    Also, do you sync the device regularly? When syncing an iPod Touch/iPhone a backup file is made. That backup file doesn't contain your music but it does contain your address book, application data, pictures, notes, etc. After restoring your device, you can try restoring from the last backup that was made of your device so you will not have to start over completely from scratch.
    Hope this helps!

    What version of Acrobat/Reader are you using? Do you see this same issue in other files/applications?
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
