Open any file type

I have come on a file that I can't open - and it has no extension as a clue.
Even though it is only 24kb and so likely to be text I'd like to know what ut is before I dump it, so does any one have ideas as to how extract the contents?
Cheers, Colin

Brill - I had tried it on Bean, but clearly it has its limits...

E70 PDF Reader : Unable to open. File type not sup...

This morning I have bought an E70, among others due to its highscreen resolution and the possibility to run a PDF reader on it.
I have now tried ...
  - the pre-installed Adobe PDF Reader
  - the Adobe PDF Reader supplied with the PC Suite CD-ROM
  - the Adobe PDF Reader available on europe.nokia.com
I am fascinated by a software which presents itself in the About box as '1.5', prompts during installation for '1.0.5' and has filenames '1_5_0'.
Apart from minor variations in the SIS filenames they all share the same annoying feature: They refuse to display any of my PDF files but display a message 'Unable to open. File type not supported. 5. !' instead.
It doesn't seem to be a problem of the PDF files, since a collegue of mine was able to open them on his E61 or E70 (forgot to ask).
Any idea what this problem could be caused by?

I am speechless -- but happy.
The complaint about the file type only appears if you try to open a PDF stored in the phone memory but not if you try to open a PDF stored on the memory card.
Problem solved.

Photoshop CC 2014 wont open any files or create a new file

I can't open any files or create a new file no matter what I do. I've uninstalled Photoshop along with every Adobe application then reinstalled creative cloud and photoshop but that didn't work. I've tried moving the preferences to the desktop, didn't work. Does anyone have any answers? Even my IT guy can't figure it out. Please help. It's been like this for a few days now and I have a work assignment due...ahh!

Unable to open any file in Elements 11

Please help. Why would my Elements 11 suddenly refuse to open ANY file. It worked yesterday. I uninstalled and reinstalled. When I select open and select the file, nothing happens. Nothing. No errors, no opening of files, nothing. It doesn't matter what file type I select, even psd files won't open. I'm having to resort to going back and load Elements 7. I have to get this work done. Why is this happening? What can I do to fix?

Make sure you're online with a good connection, open PS 11, click on the Help menu and select "Updates.." on the bottom. The rest should be automatic. It should upgrade you to 7.4.

Photoshop CC won't open any files

I just installed PS CC on a clean machine, did nothing else, no moving of files or plugins. No Adobe products on the PC before this install. And I am unable to open any files in PS, that include opening a new untitled document. Nothing ever opens. What is going ON!? Fresh installation from Creative Cloud app tool.
System is Windows 8.1, no previous Adobe products on this box. Not impressed with Creative Cloud if this is how the tools work right out of the gate. Staff, any suggestions?

PS CS6 had the same problems initially. I did a restart of the system and now it seems to be working. So I'd make sure you tell people if they install or reinstall, try a system reboot before suggesting they start killing apps. I think that's a red herring.
The symptoms and sequence of work-around's I had were the following, which might help in understanding what was going wrong. Note, only PS seems to be affected as all other CC apps I tried successfully opened and created their file types.
Install several apps via Creative Cloud app (PS, AI, etc)
Launch PS CC (and PS CC64)
Would get an error dialog during launch about a defective existing monitor color profile (choosing 'Ignore' or 'Use' made no difference).
Try to create new file (File\New).
On first attempt you get the New Dialog UI. Select any choices, doesn't seem to matter, none resulted in a successful New Untitled windows opening.
On second attempt of File\New you get no New Dialog UI.
Try to open any existing image file on my system (any format), via File menu, or drag drop. Result is nothing, no document window opens. No errors reported by app. Just silent failure.
Uninstall PS CC. NOTE Creative Cloud app doesn't provide an uninstall option, must be done by system Control Panel.
Attempt to reinstall PS CC via Creative Cloud app, but could not because it didn't update as 'uninstalled'. Still listed PS CC as an installed app. ??
Went to Adobe site to CC Download center to initiate new install from there, but that didn't help either because it launches Creative Cloud app which still thought PS CC was already installed.
Chose PS CS6 instead so I could at least install something PS.
Test new install of PS CS6, all the same bug behavior as with PS CC. Identical to experience with PS CC.
Restart PC. PS CS6 works fine now.
Not going to try to reinstall PS CC because I just don't trust this stuff now. Will stay with PS CS6 because its now working.
Hope this helps you guys. I see a lot of people in the forums complaining about various similar issues with opening files. Something you really should address.

Preview app fails to open any file, console log shows errors messages

Hi,
I backed up my old mac using TimeMachine and restored the TimeMachine image to my newly purchased iMac running 10.9.4. There were no errors during restoration, however when I try to open a file with the Preview app (such as a jpeg file), Preview app doesn't open the file and emits a variety of errors to the console log as below.
Is there a way to clear the state of the Preview app so I can fix this issue and use the Preview app to open images again? These image files open fine in Chrome, but I can't seem to use Preview to open any files.
Not sure if this is a bug with system restore or a bug in the new OS. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hi,
I tried both suggestions, but they didn't resolve the issue.   Thank you both for trying to help.
The font tool was crashing when I tried to validate my font files. I looked and I didn't see the font in question listed in that tool. Crash stack is below.
I reinstalled the OS per Linc's instructions, but Preview still is crashing when opening a jpeg file. Crash stack is below.
Weirdly, most everything else seems to work okay: mail, safari, chrome, etc, all seem to function with no issue. The font tool isn't something I care about, but Preview app is something I use to review my pictures, etc.
Any other suggestions? Is there a good alternative app I should use in the meantime to replace Preview while I get to the bottom of the problem and resolve it?
Thanks,
Norm

CS6: cannot open any files JPEG, TIFF, PSD, PNG [was:Help!]

Hey,
So, I'm a freshmen in college majoring in Simulation and Game Development. Two of my SGD classes features Photoshop. I am trying to continue an assignment that I started at school today, but the Photoshop CS6 (64 bit) that I have on my laptop (which was obtained legally and is a gift from my sister) will not let me open any files. Not, JPEG, TIFF, PSD, PNG, nary a one of the photo types can be opened. It doesn't give me any signs of trouble or error messages. It just wont let me open a file or make a new file. I just sits there in all its power staring me down. Ugh, why must Photoshop all of a sudden despise me so? So, could you all please help me and fast? I have deadlines that must be met!
Blessings,
BSE

Okay, I'm going to say this now. I'm a techinically chanellged artistic person. So, I haven't a clue what a OS is...
And no I haven't changed anything on my computer lately, except for the updates that the computer does while it's configuring, which is did earlier when I tried the ole restart and hope it works thing. Which sadly, did not do anything to help me.
Extra Info:
Computer: Dell Inspiron
System Operator: Winows 7 Ultimate
Yes, it's tyhe full version not the trial version.
It's Photoshop CS6 (64 bit).
Yes, I've used it before on this computer.
I've had it for almost 2 maybe 3 months now. I got it as a gift from my sister the 2nd and 3rd week of he beginning of my Fall semester. We're almost at the end of said semester since 2 to 3 weeks ago I have my midterms, which were all jammed into one week. Tests galore.

AE CC not exporting to any file type on Mac OSX 10.10.2

I have been trying to export my AE sequences to pretty much any file type possible. Initially thought it was the Quicktime/H.264 error that people had noted in other threads, even tried it with AME. I've tried exporting several different projects too, some that had third party plug-ins and even test projects with just in-software assets in them. I was having no problem up until just a few days ago when I upgraded. My best guess is that it's OSX 10.10.2 related bug?
Computer specs:
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012)
Processer 2.9 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
-Jishnu...

Oh yes. My bad. It is in face the one-second mark. And it is in every
project I have tried.
The assets in the first project that I noticed this happening on (which was
also the first project I opened after upgrading to OSX 10.10.2) include:
- Solid background with a color gradient
- Alpha Track Matte
- Optical Flare
- Particular
- Null object
But this exact same problem occurs with every project I've tried to export,
regardless of what's in the project/comp

When i try to open any file safari crashes

I am having a problem with my Mac Pro Laptop. I can not open any files no matter the type. When I try safari crashes. Thank you for your help in advance. Very frustrated!

An appointment at the genius Bar for an evaluation is free, in warranty or out.
This sounds like just the sort of "hands-on" problem they are good at addressing.

Photoshop cs3 crashes when trying to open any file

When I purchased CS3 Web Premium it took several months of tooling around to get it to install on Vista HP. Photoshop cs3 worked fine for a few months after installation. It now refuses to open any files - just goes to an eternal spinning icon. When I try to shut it down, it just says not responding. I reinstalled once (takes hours) and it worked for an afternoon. Next morning back to not opening files.
Macine is dell xps M1210, 2Gb Ram, Core 2 T5600 processor, NVIDIA Go 7400 64Mb card.
Help.

Problem (hopefully) solved!
file>open has always been available, but when i select a file and open it is when it hangs. Hitting esc then has no effect.
Tried the reset preferences - still no change.
A friend suggested delete all network printers and voila - it worked! Still keeping fingers and toes crossed every time I use pshop, a little annoying that I have to send files to another machine to print (fortunately I rarely need to print files), and input devices hard to use with everything crossed.
Thanks for suggestions Dave.

In Photoshop CC14, can not open any files or create a new file.

I will open photoshop (recent update and previous), and it will not allow me to open any files or create a new one. The blank screen with the tools just stays the same. Other apps such as Illustrator still work. I'm on Windows 8.1. Please help I need Photoshop for my business.

Photoshop CC 2014 won't open any files, not even create new ones

I have a freshly installed version of Photoshop CC 2014 and it just won't open any single file no matter what I do. I also have Illustrator CC 2014 installed for the past week, and it is behaving fine, and even opening up the files that Photoshop won't open (jpg, psd, png, etc.).
I've tried uninstalling completely, and reinstalling it, and it still won't open any files. Basically, nothing happens after I click the "Open" button from the Open File dialog window.
I've also try resetting my user preferences using this video tutorial, and it also didn't resolve the problem: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/preference-file-names-locations-photoshop.html
Has anyone else experienced this or can give information on how to resolve it?
Thanks!

Well, I finally got it to work through trial and error. Here were the steps that I used to get it to work:
1) Make sure that you are not behind any firewall/VPN/etc, just a direct connection to the internet (if possible). I use Adobe for my work laptop, and I was informed that this could potentially be an issue during installation processes.
2) Uninstall Photoshop via the Creative Cloud application interface.
3) Right-click on the Creative Cloud icon from the system tray and "Quit" (it was automatically started for me from a previous bootup)
4) Right-click on the Creative Cloud desktop icon and choose "Run As Administrator"
5) Re-install Photoshop
After performing the above steps, I can now open any png/jpg/gif/etc file, as well as start a new file. I have no clue why it works or if my steps played any role in fixing it, but I thought it was worth sharing for others to try if they encounter a similar issue. It could be either the firewall I was behind, or the permissions (I don't think Creative Cloud boots up running as administrator). But I am in no position to say I know the exact resolution. Hope this helps!

Dreamweaver wont open any files in Mac OS 10.6.3

I just reinstalled CS4 on my Mac becasue every time I try to open any file, the window panels all blink (refresh) and then nothing happens. The reinstall did not help...nothing has helped.
Even when I go to the "Info" panel for any file and try to do a "Open With" and change it to be CS4...it switches back to Firefox.
Creating a new file in Dreamweaver is fine...I can edit it all day long. However, once I save it and try and reopen...nothing...just those dang panel refreshes.
Has anyone come into this issue and if so, has any idea how to fix this...or even where the issue is? Is it in Dreamweaver, Firefox, Mac OS?
Any help would be great.
Thanks!

I have not heard of this problem before. Have you tried a system permissions repair, and then de-activate your software (Help->Deactivate) and then run the Adobe - Adobe CS4 Clean Script before re-installing?
