"photoshop open options are incorrect"
I have just downloaded photoshop to my Windows 7 computer and I am unable to open any photos at all.
Every time I try there's an error message: "photoshop open options are incorrect"
I have tried opening photos from the Internet, from my digital camera, sample photos everything but nothing will work.
I've tried JPEGS, tiffs, pdfs etc. with no luck and have made sure to include the file type in the photo name.
This is so frustrating as I am unable to work on any photo whatsoever.
Any help would be grately appreciated
If Photoshop starts use menu Help>system info... then copy and past the info here.

Cannot open the file because the open options are incorrect
I'm trying to iterate through a folder of images, open each one of them, duplicate them into another photoshop file and close the individual image. This code works great on a PC (Photoshop CS3), but when I run it on our macs (Photoshop CS3) I will receive the following error on random images. "Error: Cannot open the file because the open options are incorrect" Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I've read about possibly setting the OpenDocumentType but have not seen an example anywhere. This error will sometimes occur after loading in one image or sometimes after 20 images. Sometimes I run it on the same directory multiple times all with various points of error. Sometimes every images is loaded. Any help would be much appreciated. Sample code is below.
i //CODE BELOW
i //allows the user to select an folder full of images
b var inputFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Select a folder that contains the files you want added as layers.");
b var fileList = inputFolder.getFiles();
b var tempRef = app.open(tempName);
b for (var i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++)
b {
b var tempName = fileList[i];
b var tempStringName = fileList[i].toString();
i //used to check if the file in the directory does in fact contain the .png extension
b var reducedFileName = tempStringName.substring(tempStringName.lastIndexOf("/")+1);
b if(reducedFileName.substring((reducedFileName.length - 4),(reducedFileName.length)) != ".png" || reducedFileName.substring((reducedFileName.length - 4),(reducedFileName.length)) != ".PNG")
b {
i //setting reference to opened docuement PNG file
i //This seems to be the section throwing the error. Surrounding with Try Catch revealse the Error noted above
b var tempRef = app.open(tempName);
i //setting a tempName variable to the PNG file name
b var tempName = app.activeDocument.name;
i //setting reference to the active layer in the file
b var graphicLayer = app.activeDocument.activeLayer;
i //setting the PNG layer name to the PNG file
b tempRef.layers[0].name = tempName;
i //duplicating the image onto the opened Photoshop file
b tempRef.layers[0].duplicate(backRef);
i //closing the original PNG file without saving
b tempRef.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
b }
b }It looks as if the folder contains non Photoshop files, one way around the problem would be to change
var fileList = inputFolder.getFiles();
To specify the file types you want to process IE:
var fileList = inputFolder.getFiles(/\.(jpg|tif|psd|crw|cr2|nef|dcr|dc2|raw)$/i); -
Open options are incorrect (Trial Version)
Whenever I try and try and open a photo of any kind, I get a script error that says "Error: Cannot open the file because the open options are incorrect:1". I have looked everywhere and nothing has helped me.

What have you done for trouble-shooting so far?
Restoring Preferences after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved might be a starting point:

InDesign CS5 is not opening after deactivation/activation. How can I fix this? Illustrator and Photoshop open and are working fine. Please help!
First of all, thank you for replying so promptly to my posts this morning!
I can't remember how I got the software on his computer, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't through migration assistant.
I was looking into doing an uninstall of InDesign and a fresh install. However, I initially downloaded the CS5 suite digitally and I can't find out how I am able to perform a fresh install of InDesign. Do you know where I find this info or gain access to download just InDesign again? I can't seem to find anything in my Adobe account that shows where I might do another download. -
[CS3][JS] Open options
I'm dealing with a situation where Photoshop will not open a file using open() because of the error "Cannot open the file because the open options are incorrect". The problem arises because the files have no extension or the wrong extension! I cannot work out how to specifically tell Photoshop to open the file as a certain type. I know what type the files are (mostly TIFFS) before the open command runs.
Tried Action Manager but it did not provide any insight on how to force the open command to, for example, 'open as TIFF'. Any help would be much appreciated.I was having a similar situation with the app.open command via javascript (.jsx). The script had been working fine but I started getting erratic behavior while doing minor edits. After closing the extendscript editor and restarting photoshop, the script began working as it should again. Using CS4 and PC.

"PDF Open Options" in Applescript
So I am trying to batch convert a bunch of PDFs to JPEG files as part of a larger Applescript, and I'm finding that some of the parameters in "PDF Open Options" are ignored. Namely, the "height", "width" and "constrain proportions" parameters.
This code is lifted directly from the Photoshop CS3 Scripting Guide (with filename changed, of course):
tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS3"
set myFilePath to alias "WABEL0457937:Users:Charles:Desktop:8925.pdf"
with timeout of 10000 seconds
open myFilePath as PDF with options {class:PDF open options, height:pixels 100, width:pixels 200, mode:RGB, resolution:72, use antialias:true, page:1, constrain proportions:false}
end timeout
end tell
In the resulting file, the "resolution" is correct, but the height and width are calculated using the PDF's original height and width multiplied by the resolution, and the image is constrained to the original proportions.
I thought it might be a collision with specifying the resolution and the height/width in pixels, so I tried omitting the resolution, but then it just defaults to 300.
Anyone else create a script that opens PDFs and run into this?Thanks for that!
(If those parameters are deprecated since CS2, it's probably bad form for Adobe to use them in their documentation for CS3. Just sayin'!)
Anyway, it looks like the shell script you quoted gives the page height in points with an assumed resolution of 72 DPI. I can use that with my target dimension to calculate what to set the resolution to.
In case it helps anyone else, here's the working code I came up with:
-- ("str_replace" is a custom function to find and replace text in a string, it's not built-in to Applescript)
set pageHeight to do shell script "/usr/bin/mdls -name kMDItemPageHeight " & quoted form of (POSIX path of this_item as string)
set pageHeight to my str_replace("kMDItemPageHeight = ", "", pageHeight)
set pageWidth to do shell script "/usr/bin/mdls -name kMDItemPageWidth " & quoted form of (POSIX path of this_item as string)
set pageWidth to my str_replace("kMDItemPageWidth = ", "", pageWidth)
if (pageHeight as number) is greater than (pageWidth as number) then
set pdf_resolution to round (1000 / (pageHeight as number) * 72) rounding up
else
set pdf_resolution to round (1000 / (pageWidth as number) * 72) rounding up
end if
try
with timeout of 5 seconds
open alias ("WABEL0457937:Users:Charles:Desktop:Test:image_prep:" & image_id & ".pdf") as PDF with options {class:PDF open options, resolution:pdf_resolution, mode:RGB, use antialias:true, suppress warnings:false, use page number:true, page:1, crop page:media box}
end timeout
on error
-- I have some sections here that check for and handle progress windows, password prompts, and such
-- so the script can either continue or fail gracefully
end try
All of the images coming out of this script are just over 1000 pixels at their widest dimension. Since it's not critical that they be exactly 1000 (just very close), I was able to completely eliminate the resizing portion of the script to save even more processing time.
Thanks for the pointers, everyone! -
How do i get photoshop open in Mavericks

HELP!!!!!
In addition to upgrading PhotoShop, your options are:
• Partition your MBP hard drive or add an external drive and install Snow Leopard (with the Optional Rosetta checked) into it. Then use the "dual-boot" method to run your PowerPC apps (including CS2 Photoshop) while in Snow Leopard and boot back into Mavericks when you need that capability.
• Install Snow Leopard Server (available from The Apple Store by telephone orders only for $19.99 + sales tax & shipping costs at 1.800.MYAPPLE (1.800.692.7753) - Apple Part Number: MC588Z/A) into Parallels and then install and run CS2 Photoshop concurrently with Mavericks:

Open file in Photoshop CS4 with PDF open options
Hi, I need to open Illustrator file in Photoshop with PDF open options and set the crop page options to media box. I am not sure how to do it. Here what I have that doesn't work:
*open file "SPACE:Marketing:webTemplatesCreation:working:die_front.ai" with PDF open options media box crop page*
Thank you for your help.
YuliaOpen options are a list… So you supply like so…
open theFile as PDF with options ¬
{class:PDF open options, bits per channel:eight, constrain proportions:true, crop page:media box, mode:CMYK, page:i, resolution:300, suppress warnings:true, use antialias:true, use page number:true}
Where 'theFile' is an alias of your PDF file and 'i' is your page to open (if in a loop) else use an integer… -
So, where I work, we have a script that handles all of our heavy lifting. This script is running on CS6, and all of the users are running CC 2014. Now when the CS6 machine opens a document with any type of vector object from CC 2014 it throws a dialog box asking if I want to flatten, cancel, or Keep layers. I do have DISPLAYDIALOGS.NO set at the top of this script.
I under stand scripting quite well, but I'm just not sure if there are app.open options to tell this to keep layers. Also, I'm pretty sure a try catch block will not work, becuase this dialog appears before the image is actually pixels on the screen.
When the script generates our web images I've tried to flatten the document right after its opened and I still see this dialog. Any help would be super appreciated.
Thank you!app.open will encounter problems that you really have no control over so you get an annoying dialog that you can't do anything with. The one that caused me the most grief is when a script tries to open a corrupt jpg image. IMNSHO, app.open should throw an Exception if it can't open the file and DisplayDialogs.NO is set. That way you can log the filename and deal with it later.
Bottom line is that there is nothing you can do in JS. One thing I have done in the past was use a utility like AutoKey on Windows that looks for these dialogs and automatically responds to them so you can continue processing. I'm fairly certain there is something similar available for OS X. -

I have tried installing the latest Quicktime but it tells me that I have to do software update and when I do, Quicktime does not appear to need an update. I have no idea what to do
Click on your preference and check the Parental tab for possible restrictions. Open iTunes, then click the iTunes menu, select preferences after the window opens click on the Parental icon, take a look at the content restrictions section.

When I open my RAW files in Photoshop CC they are grainy and the JPEGS are not. What is going on? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with my CACHE levels either.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:

If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
A screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
