Photoshop cannot open files in the "Adobe Photoshop JPEG file" format

Strange intermittent issue on Mac, 10.6, CS4. Anyone know what happens to standard image files that makes them so PS cannot open them?
Thanks

Check your file name closely. If you have illegal characters it could make them unreadable (dashes, dots, slash, etc.) Also, set OS to show extensions and make sure you have not lableled it xxxxx.jgg.jpg.

What does this mean? I have opened my photos in Adobe Photoshop for years and suddenly I get this message and can't open any of my pictures

I downloaded a cheap PDF editor and it converted all my PDFs to their software. Then when I deleted it, I cannot open them in the Adobe format any longer. Please let me know how to get them back!

It's important to understand that when this sort of thing happens files aren't "converted" at all.
In Windows and Mac, there is just one app (program) that it run when you double click a type of file. There's an app for Word documents (Microsoft Word). There's an app for PDF files. So all that happened is that you installed an app which can open PDF files.
Nothing changed in the files. You can still open them the traditional way if you forget double click - start the app, use Open from the File menu.

Lol: Photoshop cannot open files in the "Adobe Photoshop file" format.

I am saving PSD's only to find I cannot open them after. Oh boy.

Any thoughts? Cheers

Out of curiosity, what do you expect people to offer you after an overly terse description like that?
Exactly how are you saving the files and how are you trying to open them (understanding that there isn't just one way)?
Have you tried opening your files on another system to isolate whether it's a problem with saving or with opening?
Does it happen with every file or is it intermittent? If the latter, does it happen with big and small files?
Do any of the diagnostic or error logging facilities on your system show anything's wrong with it? Are you seeing problems in any other applications?
Basic troubleshooting.

Photoshop cannot open EM5 II RAW files even with 8.8 ACR?!

I have an active Adobe CC subscription so my Photoshop is already the latest version, but when I try to open EM5 II .ORF files, I get message "Photoshop cannot open this file." (see attached screenshot)
EM5 II is already officially supported according to Camera Raw 8.8 announcement page so why can't Photoshop open it? I thought there's something wrong with my setup so I downloaded and installed Camera Raw plug-in installer manually but the result is still the same.
I even uninstalled my Photoshop CC 2014 using Creative Cloud and reinstalled it, I just keep getting the same message.
Any other things I can try?

You are right, when I go to Help > Camera Raw, I see plugin version is only 8.7
But I've run the Camera RAW plugin installer specified in my post above, and DNG Converter is already at the proper 8.8
Why is Camera RAW not updating to 8.8 via Creative Cloud or the manual install? Inside Photoshop, I also went to Help > Updates but it's telling I already have the latest update.
Help!!!

What is the exact file name for Adobe Photoshop Elements application?

what is the exact file name for Adobe Photoshop Elements application?
I jsut downn laoded it and the alias does not work. in the support folder I have an application titled Adobe photoshop Elements Editor and it lauches ok but when I got to import a photo it only asks for a frame from a video.

You do not import anything to the editor. You just open things there using File>Open. Import is only for frame from video and for scanning if your scanner is compatible and you install the PSE twain plug-in.
If you wish to use PSE to keep track of your photos, launch Adobe Elements 11 Organizer instead of the editor.

Ive just signed up for the adobe photoshop pack, i use a mac, when i click download, nothing is happening.. Am I doing something wrong?? When I try and open the software I already had from trial it says its expired, or i need to use a serial number... HELP Anyone else experienced this?

If there is an option to "license this software", and it takes you to a sign-in page with username and password (not a serial number) - then just go ahead and sign in.
If it insists on a serial number you need to uninstall the trial. Then try to download again.

Illustrator cannot open files in the "Adobe Illustrator Document" format.

I recently upgraded from CS4 to CS5.5 on my Mac (10.6.7), and now when I try to open a .ai file, I get the error:
Illustrator cannot open files in the “Adobe Illustrator Document” format.
Google doesn't seem to be much help other than one other person who had the same issue. Any idea why Illustrator can't open Illustrator documents?

Actually, quitting Illustrator and re-launching it solved it. It was the first time I had launched Illustrator after installing it, so maybe it had something to do with that.

Acrobat cannot open files in the "Adobe PDF document" format

The document “example.pdf” could not be opened. Acrobat cannot open files in the “Adobe PDF document” format.
Hi All,
Running Acrobat Pro 9.4.2 on Snow Leopard, have never had this problem before. Showed up about a week ago, I believe with new update. Can't double click on a file in Finder, or drag and drop to AcrobatPro in Dock, but can open from within Acrobat Pro / File / Open command.
All my preferences are correct with "Open With Acrobat Pro" as the default.
I've read all the threads I can find with no answers yet.
Anyone found and answer, I see a lot of us are going through this over the last year.
Only possible common thread I have found is possibly HP printers. But I've been running HP printers all along with no issues.
Thanks for you input.

Moved to Acrobat Installation & Update Issues
Either Acrobat needs to be re-installed or the file is named as a pdf file, but it is not a pdf file. Try opening the pdf file in a text editor and read off what the first line of the file is.

You can't download the CD's, though you can download the installation files. If you are trying to get a download link to work and it won't, try using a different browser.

Where are the pictures found in the Adobe Photoshop 10 organizer?

Nov. 29, I had my computer repaired from a trojan, & I figured out that everything i've done since Sept. 13th was gone because when the computer guy was fixing it, he tried to put in the new MicroSD card reader, but he had to put an old one back in (from Sept.) as the new one had wrong connections.
Then, when he started the PC he only had the C drive (& my documents and pictures are on the A drive). He turned it off and realized he accidentally disconnected one of the mirror hard drives for Drive A. He had to turn it off and open it again and reconnect the cable that was disconnected.
During that moment perhaps a line in the drive had become corrupted. So, I restored through Carbonite, hoping I'd get back almost everything (or at least whatever was done being backed up). However, I lost quite a few pictures.
Tuesday, however, I noticed that the pictures I lost were imported into the organizer for Adobe Photoshop 10, which is on the C drive, so I'm hoping the pictures are still there, even if they are thumbnails (I assume they would be)! But where are the pictures found in the Adobe Photoshop 10 organizer? I assume in a folder somewhere? Am I able to copy them? (A low quality image, is better than no image!)

The thumbnail cache is separate and lives in the system files.
You could try a new catalog - it doesn’t involve any duplication.
Click: File >> Catalog
Click the New button
Give your catalog a name e.g. My Catalog2 (or whatever you prefer)
Check the box Import Free Music - that will bring in the Adobe MP3 tracks used in slideshows
Then click OK
When the new blank catalog opens click: File >> Get Photos and Videos >> From Files & Folders
Navigate to your root folder (normally Pictures or My Pictures or wherever you put your photos) then press Ctrl+A to select all sub folders or make sure the checkbox is marked.
Click Open or Get Media
Wait for Elements to complete the import, accept all keyword suggestions (select all) and then wait for thumbnails to finish generating.
N.B. You may not get all the metadata (keywords etc) but in view of the problems you have had it may be your best hope.
