Not a Valid Editor

I just recently FTPed into a site to edit it because it uses really old coding and it's not SEO friendly. When I try to click on some of the files though, Dreamweaver says "Can't find valid editor for this file extension." Does this mean the files were just too old for the software to be able to edit?

What kind of file extensions do they contain?
Typically DW can edit, .htm, .html, .shtm, .shtml, .php, .asp, .js and .xml files.

PSE 9.0 error: ".....not a valid photoshop document"

Platform is XP Pro...camera is Canon compact digital.
I downloaded photos to desktop folder. PSE allowed me to open the first 3 photos from the folder to edit, then I got the above error message.
However, when I right click on the photo in the desktopp folder to "open with Photoshop Elements" the PSE 9.0 editor opened all the photos.
WHY?
TIA,
Doc

I know this thread is a bit old, but I wanted to share my experience and solution in case anyone else runs into this.
The other day, I spent many hours editing some photos for a client. I saved them all and closed Photoshop. When I tried to open the .PSDs, they all came up with this "Not a valid Photoshop document" error. I was freaking out. I could see the thunmbnails and previews with the MacOS Finder and could see the images just fine in Lightroom, but couldn't open them in Photoshop CC.
Finally, I remembered that these were NOT supposed to be .psd files! They were supposed to be TIFFs. What happened was, when I edited them from within Lightroom into Photoshop, they opened as TIFFs. However, when I did "save as", I wanted to name them similarly to some other files I had. I clicked on one of the existing files to copy the file name in the Save As dialog to make it easier to name the new file I was saving, but I didn't realize it was changing the file extention from ".tif" to ".psd" as well. The older MacOS (version 9 and earlier) didn't rely on file extensions fo identifying file types, so it didn't hit me right away that this would be the problem. When I changed the incorrect .psd file extension to .tiff, the files opened in Photoshop just fine.
SO... if you run into this "Not a valid Photoshop document" error, try figuring out if it's actually another file type (.jpg, .tif, .png, etc) by either getting the file info from another program or just experimenting with different file extensions. Chances are good that your file isn't actually corrupt, but just named improperly!

Dreamweaver CC and Windows 8.1 - Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension

Was running the latest version with no issues and then I loaded Office 2013 .. Now when I am in the remote site and try to double click on a .cfm file, I get a dialog box..Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension..
I tried the support chat and they said Dreamweaver support was not available, try again later???
So I thought I would reinstall the CC version and now I can see the Dreamweaver icon next to the files but still ... can't open the file..
Any assistance would be appreciated?
Leo

The issue is only in Windows 8.x where when Dreamweaver CC is installed, it is not able to turn on the file type associations by default. The workaround for now is to manually add the extensions both within Windows and then within Dreamweaver CC itself.
Go to Control Panel > Programs > Default Programs > Set Your Default Programs and select Dreamweaver CC and then select 'Choose defaults for this program' and Select All or the extensions you want to open in Dreamweaver CC
Start Dreamweaver CC and go to Edit > Preferences > File Types/Editors and add '.cfm .cfc' to the extensions and then add C:\Program Files (x86)\Dreamweaver CC\Dreamweaver.exe then click on Apply and Close
That should be it.

When I try to use the Smart Brush I keep getting this message "Could not use the Smart Brush tool because it is not a valid Photoshop document"

When I try to use the Smart Brush I keep getting this message "Could not use the Smart Brush tool because it is not a valid Photoshop document". Can someone please help me fix this? It's never done this before until now...

First go to the editor preferences>general and click this button, then restart the editor and try again. If that doesn't do it, more info, like your version of PSE and your operating system:

Can't find valid editor

I've just recently purchased Dreamweaver 8, and am having a
problem that I found solutions to on the internet (including this
board somewhere) - but it's not working.
I use JSP files but have a different extension - "JWQ". I've
added this extension to the JSP entry on extensions.txt - for both
the Java Server Pages and All Documents lines. I have also added
this extension to the winffileextension/macfileextnesion as well.
Dreamweaver keeps giving me the can't find valid editor. (I can
work around this by just opening it with dreamweaver - it parses
things in both code and design view).
Anything I'm missing?
Also, I have a "site" setup that when I update the template,
NONE of these files update unless I have them open. the template
updater returns "0 updates" across the site. I've worked w/ MX 2004
@ an old company I thought I had these issues resolved for future
releases, but this is driving me crazy.
Any help appreciated.

Try this, right click on the access.mdb pick open with/
browse click the
dropdown go to your programs folder find Microsoft
office/office/msaccess.exe and click open see if that works.

Hi,
I tested your EDI data using B2B document editor. I am getting the following Error:
The Interchange Trailer is missing. The segment itself may be missing or the Segment Delimiter may be missing.
As Dheeraj mentioned in previous post, ISA segment is not constructed properly. I have modified your EDI data and validated in B2B document editor.
Correct EDI data:

thx, mfg iggy

Ummmm, what did you edit Xorg.conf with? It looks like there's some weird encoding or something causing it to look like "EÂxtensions" instead of "Extensions".
Maybe you could try opening xorg.conf in a basic editor like vi or nano, deleting the "EÂxtensions" bit, and just retyping it.
That's not a pro viewpoint or anything, but it could be somewhere to start.

Error message 'not a valid PDF document'

Stuffit is the only app I know of which can decompress its own format. Your Windows clients must use the free Expander to open them. Otherwise, use OS X's built in zip compression and they'll be able to open the files without the need of third party software. Right click on any item, or group of items and choose, "Compress xxx Items" (how it will read if more than one item is chosen).

I have Win7Pro64, tried to Un-Install Firefox control panel, no luck, tried running helper.exe from Uninstall folder and it says "Not a Valid Win-32 Application" What gives?? Just want to update to 3.6.4 and that didn't work either so I'm trying to remove

Running Win7Pro64. Tried to update to 3.6.4 and it failed. It said to download the whole program so I did. Tried to install and says that the "License File" is missing. SO I go to un-install 3.6.3 myslef with Control Panel. All that did was remove Firefox as a listed program in control panel, all of it is still there in Explorer and it runs fine. So I go to use Helper.Exe under the Uninstall folder of Mozilla Firefox and when I click that, it says "Not a Valid Win-32 Application" What's up with that?? All I want to do is remove 3.6.3 so that I can clean install 3.6.4. I tried installing 3.6.4 two different ways with failures both times. I tried to remove 3.6.3 using two different ways, and that also failed both times.
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== I tried updating to 3.6.4. It failed both with the update and the full download, so tried to un-install 3.6.3 in control panel, then helper.exe with no luck.

You don't want to update to 3.6.4, trust me. Stay with 3.6.3. If you need to download it again you can find it here:

Bug in Tabular form Not Exist Validation, fails when creating multiple rows

Hi,
I have a Not Exist validation created for a Tabular form:
select 1 from my_table where col1 = :col1 and col2 = :col2Execution State: For created and Modified Rows
which is working fine when a row already there in DB
and I am trying to enter a new row with same data.
but when there's no data and I enter two rows with same data, validation does not fire, first row should allowed to enter
but for second row it should give error that data already exists, which is not happening.
for example,
let's say I have a row in DB with: 1, 2, 3
when I try to add a new row with same data ie. 1, 2, 3 validation fires and showing error, which is fine.
but let's say there's no data in DB and I am entering two rows with:
1, 2, 3
1, 2, 3
validation is not working this time, it is allowing to enter both the rows.
do I need to create a manual validation for this or what?

Hello Tauceef,
>> Now I got it, I was under impression that it will validate one by one row before insertion,
>> but it's going to check all the rows first, then do the insertion.
Just to clear things up, the APEX engine works exactly as you describe, but this is your problem.
The APEX engine do check\validate all the rows first, one row at a time, and only if all the rows pass validation, the DML processes kick in. The DML processes work on the entire Tabular Form record set (per page view, of course).
In order for your type of validation to work (the one that queries the database), as you want it, the validation and DML actions have to run together, row by row. This is not how things work, because it’s less efficient/optimal, and may lead to a situation where a certain row can fail validation, but other row(s) already been inserted/updated/deleted into/from the database. This could be a very tricky situation.
Vikram has suggested to rely on a database constraint, and control the APEX error message. This is possible, although I’m not sure that in this case, the Tabular Form will retain all the user changes, in case of validation error. You should check it.
Another option, which Marc hinted on, is to manipulate the G_Fxx arrays. In your case, you should loop through the new rows, compute their MD5, and make sure that all the rows have different MD5 values. This is on top of the current validation, which makes sure that the new rows do not already exist in the database.
Regards,
Arie.

BI 7.0 Infoset query open problem: query_tech_name_Fxx is not a valid char.

Our BASIS transport our BW 3.5 queries to BI 7.0 system. We can open all queries on the BI 7.0 box without problem except Infoset queries. The Infoset is composed of two ODSs and when openning it BI 7.0 query designer, can not see any design element in the panes of Rows, Columns, Free Char. and etc., instead the error msg shows (in between two dashed lines below):
Terminate: query_technical_name_Fxx is not a valid characteristic for InfoProvider [A122(BRAIN)]
Diagnosis
Customer enhancement RSR00002 or the implementation of BAdI RSR_OLAB_BADI delivers query_technical_name_Fxx as the characteristic to be calculated. 1. is, however, not a valid key figure for InfoProvider .
System Response
The information from query_technical_name_Fxx is ignored.
Procedure
Check the exit.
Procedure for System Administration
We've checked the enhancement RSR00002 and it's components and find they are all the same as our BW 3.5 system. query_technical_name_Fxx is Company Code InfoObj. in one ODS and it's one of the key to join these two InfoSets.
Any idea?
Thanks

I have tried EVERYTHING (well, nt everything, I don’t have the fix I suppose).
I found plenty out there and nothing directly correlates with this issue.
I searched on all parts of the errors I got.
This contains an interesting blurb about setting up access for the apppool id correctly.
That’s not the case for me. It works in dev and the same id are used there.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi.
You say its a multiserver farm, do you have more than one web server then?
If thats the case, have you tried accessing the site on each server directly?
Found this for you, maybe that can help?
