Launch PB in CS5 and get "The operation could not be completed."

I had been using the PB plug-in previously and it worked fine.  Since that time, I have installed no new hardware or drivers but have installed Topaz Adjust 4 filter.  Now, when I have an image opened in PS CS5 and I click Filters -> Pixel Bender -> Pixel Bender Gallery... I get a modal dialog with the title Error and the message "The operation could not be completed."  I tried reinstalling the extension and no luck.
Here's some relevant info:

I take it you've rebooted your machine a few times since all this has happened? Something must have changed to cause this problem. You could try deleting the Photoshop preferences and the Pixel Bender plugin preferences. You doublechecked that you have the latest drivers from nVidia (and you did so by manually comparing the result provided on the nVidia driver page with the driver version found in the Display preferences? Are you running on a laptop? If so, who is the manufacturer?

  • I cannot "save" my newly reduced size video after using the "TRIM" feature...I get "The Operation could not be completed". Why?

    I would start with my original AVI file, then hit duplicate to get a duplicate file to work on....I then would use the "TRIM" feature to shorten the video. Then when I hit "close", and it prompted me to name the newly reduced file, and saved it appropriately.So I did this procedure with two of my AVI format videos and it worked flawlessly.
    But I have tried to do this same procedure with a half a dozen more AVI videos and it will not allow me to name the modified file after I have "trimmed it" and save it...when I enter the name for the modified file and hit "close", I get the message "The operation could not be completed".  Why isn't it allowing me to save the files??

  • PS CS5 The operation could not be completed. A file system I/O error has occurred

    Howdy...
    I'm using Photoshop CS5 and when I go to use a handful of filters such as Liquify or Lens Correction I am suddenly getting an error message saying:
    "The operation could not be completed. A file system I/O error has occurred"
    Doesn't matter if it's a massive file or a small one. Sometimes the Liquify box will actually come up, but after I make one or two strokes, the beachball comes up and moments later I get the error message again. It doesn't actually crash PS, it just prevents me from using those filters. Each time I click, the error message comes up again. I've also tried it with my PS CS3 on the same Mac and it does the same thing. However on my 4 year old MacBook Pro, it's absolutely fine. Grrrrr!
    I have my PS set as default on 64 bit. I have a scratch disk with nearly 500gb free (which is not my start-up disk) I am running a Mac Pro 2.8 GHz 8 Core Intel with 16gb of ram, so it's not a memory problem. Running Mac OS 10.6.7 but did the same on 10.6.6 too.
    I have repaired the disk permissions on the start-up disk. I have reloaded a fresh copy of PS (a few times). Even did a hard Un-install with maccs3clean after trying a regular Un-install with no success.
    I had an 1.5hr conversation with an Adobe Tech guy earlier today and he's scratching his head, so I'd thought I'd throw it open to you guys hoping someone has had the same problem and can save the rest of my hair from being pulled out.
    HELP!

    Hi Guys,
    I know this is an old post but I need to bump it.
    I work for a image processing company and we all sit on top spec mac pro's with 16-32 GB of RAM, top graphic cards and SSD drives.
    All of my collegaues' computers are working fine when it comes to using liquify and all of the filters that come with CS5, but it sure doesn't work on my mac at all.
    We have a tech guy who has re-installed the OSX on a new SSD drive now two times and we have started from scratch with installing CS5 but it still will not work. I keep getting "the operation could not be completed..." every time i try
    to liquify or do any other filter work.
    I am 100% sure it doesn't have to do with any disk permissions or broken drives in my case.
    Could there be an issue with the graphic card or any other hardware component since it's clearly not a software related issue?
    Any help would be much appreciated because we are very much in the dark here.
    Best regards,
    Anders

  • The operation could not be completed (Error code -43)

    Trying to run Time Machine for first time. Get "The operation could not be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error code -43)." Have rebooted etc... suggestions?

    What is the partition map scheme (Apple partition map, or GUID?) and what is the format (HFS+/Mac OS Extended or other?) of the drive? For PowerPC Macs the Time Machine drive requires "Apple Partition Map", and for intel-based macs it requires "GUID". Both architectures require "HFS+" (otherwise known as "Mac OS Extended") for the format of the drives.

  • PS CS5 Save for Web and Devices reports "The operation could not be completed"  ?

    I teach in a lab of 27 computers, 110 students and part of the curriculum is teaching students to "Save for Web and Devices" this year for some strange reason none of my students can access "Save for Web and Devices"  they get the error message "The operation could not be completed-A write permissions error has occured."

    http://involution.com/2010/06/13/adobe-photoshop-cs5-write-perimissions-error-on-snow-leop ard/
    It worked once last Friday but today it failed, I'm getting very nervous about being able to prepare my students for the ACA exam without this function.
    In a discussion forum they suggested "zipping and deleting" the save for web preferences, I tried that.  Shut down Photoshop reopened it and that did not work.
    I am at a loss.  Seems like a bug.
    Any ideas.
    We are using iMacs running  Mac OS X  10.5.8

    The error message may not simply address the location to where the students will save a single file. The error likely applies to the temporary location where the various optimized versions might be automatically saved as you preview the image as JPG/PNG/GIF. I would wager that you would not see this error when you are logged into one of the students' computers as an admin.

  • Bridge CS5 freezes after error message...."The operation could not be completed, there is not....

    Error - The operation could not be completed.  Not enough storage is available to complete this operation.
    After this happens I have to close Bridge as it is unresponsive to any further commands and I often I have to use the task manager to close it.
    I have scoured these boards and the web for a solution and have found others w/ the same problem (even people w/ much more RAM) but have not found a solution beyond the usual advice of changing cache settings, increasing page file, or making sure there is enough hard drive space.
    I have two 1TB hdd's w/ over 80% free space on each but I only have 2 GB RAM (all my old motherboard can handle).  However, this error message occurs even when Photoshop is not running (only Bridge) and my RAM usage meter shows that I still have plenty of unused RAM available.  I did not have this problem w/ Bridge CS4. The error msg. of not enough storage doesn't make since considering the available RAM showing and ample space on the hard disk assigned to the cache (which is a different physical drive than my OS or the Bridge program.)
    Here are some of the things I have tried:
    reset Bridge preferences at startup, changed the location of the Bridge cache, its size and options, purged the cache, changed the page file size on both drives to the max, defragmented drives, disabled Norton anti-virus, etc.
    -What else can I try?
    -Would creating a new partition on my 2nd hdd to be used solely for the Bridge cache make any difference and if so, why?
    Please help, I am willing to try anything to get this to work.  It is a personal challenge at this point.... and I am determined to get Bridge CS5 to work on my machine...... 
    Thanks in advance for any advice or insturctions you may offer!

  • Hi Friends... I'm trying to delete a back-up file on mu TC but I get the message "The operation could not be completed because the item "bands" is in use. I'd like to start the Back from scratch, could help me out with deleting the current file?

    Hi Friends...
    I’m trying to delete a back-up file on mu TC but I get the message “The operation could not be completed because the item “bands” is in use. I’d like to start the Back from scratch, could help me out with deleting the current file?

    Sorry, I am very confused. I asked the following question....
    Is this the only backup file on your Mac, or do you have other backup files and data on the Time Capsule disk?
    The answer that you gave was....
    This is the only one
    Now you are saying that....
    But I have lots of other files on Time Capsule! The back up file is only one of them.
    Can you clarify, please?

  • When restoring an iPhoto library I got an "unexpected error" message and the operation could not be completed. Is my best choice to try again?

    One of my external hard drives died. I had several iPhoto libraries in it. Fortunately, I used Time Machine to backup to a Time Capsule and I can see all the iPhoto library icons in Backups.
    When restoring the first iPhoto library, after three hours, I got an "unexpected error" message and the operation could not be completed. Indeed, the restored library is smaller than the library in Backups. Is my best choice to try again and replace the restored library (which apparently must be missing some photos)? It would mean another 3 hours plus of restoration with fingers crossed...
    Any suggestions? Thank you in advance!

    I am always suspicious of using a different OS to the one that was used to run the backup.. ie if you used Snow L to backup then there is absolutely nothing wrong with using SL to restore.
    Mount the TC sparsebundle and verify it using disk utility.
    A5 here. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    You might also like to load the widget in Time Machine so you get whatever the full error message is..
    I cannot find any reference to the error code you are getting..
    My recommendation would be to try it on a different computer.. restore the whole backup to an external drive large enough to accept the whole backup.
    Use the manual methods pondini recommends.

  • Why do I get this error: The operation could not be completed because an error occurred when creating frame 1364 (error -1).

    In motion 5, when I go to export - H.264 - I get this error: The operation could not be completed because an error occurred when creating frame 1364 (error -1). Why and How do I Fix It???

    What version of FCPX ?

  • What does "The operation could not be completed because an error occurred when creating frame 0 (error -1)." mean, and why does it keep happening?

    So I've been trying to export a video file from Motion 5 (and FCPX), and I keep recieving the message "The operation could not be completed because an error occurred when creating frame 0 (error -1)". I've found the problem has something to do with a video file in the project, Ive tried multiple versions of said file, in multiple formats (.mov, h264, etc.), and I keep getting the same result.  The file was originaly a 640x480 wmv file. Any suggestions?

    I ended up figuring out a solution, but I'll get to that in a sec.
    To answer your question, I converted the .wmv file in a program called Media Converter (available in the App store), and converted it to an h.264 file (then later to a .mov file, and then to an .mpg). I could view the file, and work with it in projects, but any project I tried to output with any version of said file, would result in the afor mentioned message, with the same results in FCPX (and Compressor 4 as well).  I tried multiple frame rates, resolutions, files types, re-converting the file, all with no luck.  My impression from said experiments, and reading other discussions was that it was a corrupt file. 
    Then I got frisky...and a little desperate. I brought the converted file (the .wmv to .mov) into Motion 4... and an export worked first try.  So I exported a pro-res file from Motion 4, and used that file in the already built Motion 5 project, and voila! 
    So, who knows what that means in real terms, as for the whats and whys.

    Confirma que se trata de una cuestión de permisos.
    Por cierto te aconsejos actualices la 9.1  a 9.2, posiblemente se habría arreglado así también.
    Bueno los pasos son:
    2. Select Go from the Finder Menu.
    3. Select Computer.
    4. Select Macintosh HD.
    5. Select Users.
    6. Select your user profile.
    7. Right click on user profile. Select Get Info.
    8. Go to bottom and unlock with admin password to make changes.
    9. Make sure your user profile has Read and Write privileges by selecting from dropdown menu.
    10. Go down to wheel at very bottom and select Apply to enclosed items. This should allow Adobe Bridge to run properly.
