Jpg's do not open in preview

I suddenly got a problem with opening jpg's. All kind of pictures on my computer, from different dates (2000 - 2013), different origins (scans, copies, photographs), different folders, etcetera do not open when I select them. Preview gives me the message that the <name>.jpg cannot be opened. Files would possibly be damaged.
This is strange. I use cloud storage and even all older versions seem suddenly to be 'corrupted'. I cannot open the files with Preview, iPhoto or Photoshop.
Just wondering if someone recognizes the problem?? And if so, if any solution exists. Thanks!

Above problems applies to both JPG's and PDF's. Just a couple of days / weeks ago everything worked fine.

    I have some adobe files that are not opening in preview but will open in adobe reader (11.0.06) which is the latest adobe reader for MAC.  When try to open with Preview, it says
    Please wait....
    If this message is not eventuyally replaced by the poper contents of the document, your PDF viewer many not be able to diplay this type of document.
    You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader which I have already.

    Nevermind, I've answered my own question again. So I can look back in case I have this problem again:
    highlight a pdf file
    go to file, then get info
    select open with then change to Adobe Reader

  • Received jpg CS4 will not open

    I received a jpg from a customer today that CS4 will not open but CS3 will. CS4 just hangs. I closed down the program and tried this several times. CS4 opens other jpgs just fine.
    I am on a Mac Pro w/5 gig of RAM. Have experience no other problems.

    Yes you probably lost a pixel or two when you saved it as a jpeg again. But, since they are sending you a jpeg in the first place I'm going to take a guess that it's just so you can preview it.
    Also, this issue is not consistent. If it were true that every time someone received a jpeg it didn't open in CS4, the forums would be flooded.
    Odds are it's just saved with something strange that is tripping CS4 up (like an ICC profile). It could be 3rd party add-ons. Could be preferences. If you start seeing it happen more from this particular person but not from others, then it's probably a setting applied to the jpeg on her end.

  • NEF ( Nikon RAW file ) will not open in Preview

    I use a Nikon camera - and in the last ~3 weeks the NEF files no longer are displayed in Preview or the finder. Older NEF photos can be displayed.
    Has something changed??
    How do I correct this problem??

    There are discussion threads about this problem in both OSX 10.4 and 10.5. I have the same problem, i.e., older NEF files open but more recent ones do not. No one seems to have an answer. I've followed advice about deleting the aperture .plist file from the library and re-booting. Some suggested it might have something to do with down loading directly from the camera, but I use a card reader. NEF files load fine into Aperture but won't open in Preview. Since I still use 10.4.11, thought going to 10.5 might solve the issue. But it seems not. So now as I get ready to upgrade the OS, I am wondering if quick look will let me view NEF files. My hunch is no. Guess it must be an OS issue which I hope gets fixed soon.

  • Jpg files will not open

    I'm having trouble opeing jpg files.  They have always opened in the past but all the sudden I'm getting a message that says jpg file is not supported or the file has been damaged.  What's going on??  Can anyone tell me how I fix it?

    Adobe Reader cannot open jpeg files.  If your computer is trying to automatically open jpeg image with Adobe Reader, then your file association is damaged and you need to reassign it.
    If you need help with that, tell us your operating system, as well as what program you use to view jpeg (and other image) files.

  • Can't import JPGs but I can open with Preview

    iPhoto 4, OSX 10.3.9
    I copied hundreds of JPGs (from XP) to OSX and tried to import them into iPhoto. I get an error message.
    "Unreadable Files
    The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type of the files may not contain valid data).
    If I open the image with Preview and then save it as a JPG, I can import it, however it is impractical to do this with the volume of images I have. Is this a known issue? Are there any workarounds?

    Just about anywhere else...
    iPhoto is a database and will import the pics to the iPhoto Library Folder when you add them to the library. It will not import pics from the iPhoto Library Folder as a protection against duplication. So, put the pics on the desktop, import them and trash the files from the desktop when you're finished.

  • IWork documents will not open in Preview or display with Quicklook

    I have recently upgraded to OSX Mavericks and updated to the latest version of iWork (including the fresh installation of Numbers and Pages). However new iWork documents are not are not displaying in Finder with a preview thumbnail, or opening with either Quicklook or Preview. I only see the Pages, Keynote, and Numbers document icons.
    The issue is isolated to new iWork documents, as iWork 09 documents still work, as well as most other standard file formats.
    I have checked the Quicklook folder my Library, and have the latest 3.0 version of iWork.qlgenerator.
    I have tried restarting Finder and Quicklook (in Terminal), as well as restarting the machine. However this has not solved the problem.
    It’s not the end of the world, but it is inconvenient.
    Has anyone else had this problem? Can anyone suggest a solution?
    Thanks!

    I don't have any Appleworks files but Numbers & Pages users manuals say they will import Appleworks 6 files. I can't say why yours will not if they are Appleworks 6 documents.
    I also don't have MacLinkPlus but it might be doing one of two things: saving in a pre-'97 format of Excel or saving with non-standard header information in the file that Numbers does not understand.
    I'm not being of much help so far.  I've been looking all over and haven't found a solution for you. Sorry.

  • Cannon CR2 raw files not opening in Preview.

    Just upgraded to Mountain Lion, and now my Cannon CR2 files are no longer opeing in Preview or QuickLook.
    Opeing in Preview causes Preview to open, and the crash, and clearing the Preview prefrence files did not help.
    Looking at the file in QuickLook reports "An error has occured with the previe of this document," and just shows the defualt Preview icon.
    Has anyone else come accross this? I have an Rebel XTi, which has been supported since about 10.5 or so, and is listed by Apple as a supported camera and format, and it worked all the way up until installing 10.8 this moring.
    Any suggestions would be helpful.

    Well, my joke stands corrected by the Great Insider hisself. 
    The funny thing is that I think this particular support policy is good, yet here we find ourselves arguing.  It would be rather nasty but for the DNG converter solution, which I DID mention, and which turns it around completely and makes Adobe the good guys.

  • Pdf file will not open in preview or adobe

    When I open a pdf on my dual G5 desktop and enter the password I get a blank screen in Preview and a "unrecognized token '38,ol' was found". I open the same pdf on my powerbook G5 and it opens fine in Preview and Adobe.
    I recently did a clean install of the OS on my dual G5 destop an have the Above Reader 7.0.7 installed.
    What preference or library files might I change or copy over from my laptop to get this to work?
    G5   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    You wrote: " I shared the pdf so that I could open that same file on both machines. Same result."Sorry, I'm having a bit of trouble following this.
    Earlier you noted you could open the PDF on one computer, not the other. Now it appears that by "same result" you mean that sharing the document with a second computer resulted in it not being able to open on the computer with which it was shared as well as the computer on which the document was received as an attachment.
    So, can you open the document on one computer and not the other? Does it open on the computer with which it is shared, or the computer on which it was received? Or neither.
    Please be as specific and clear as you can be. Thanks.
    Good luck!

  • After installing/uninstalling Adobe, Preview not opening PDFs

    I installed Adobe Reader 8 just to be able to read one lousy document on the Internet. (It would not open past a screen that said I needed 8.0).
    I noticed that it noticeably slowed the opening of ALL pdf documents from the Internet -- Preview was much faster. I deleted Adobe Reader from the Apps folder, but all pdfs are STILL NOT opening with Preview anymore and they're still all slow to open. I tried putting Preview on the doc--didn't work.
    What can I do to get rid of Adobe and restore Preview as the default?
    Thanks!

    Interesting! A combination of the two suggestions worked!
    I did a right-click with my mouse, went into "Open with" and "Other" then choose Preview and checked "Always Open With." This worked with the pdf files only on my computer, but not for pdfs off the Internet.
    Then, per the first suggestion, I deleted just that one plug-in and Internet pdfs now open with Preview as well! Just what I wanted!
    Now I feel confident about deleting Adobe. Thanks you two!!!
