Problem opening up Illustrator FIles!! Help Please

I recently updated Illustrator from CS to CS2. I checked that I could open my files originally created in CS and then deleted the program. But now I find that certain files wont open now using CS2. When I try to open a file it tries to load up and then says "Can't Open the illustration" and blank file appears. WHat can I do?
Please Help ASAP
Denise

If they were saved to be PDF compatible, you could try open them in Acrobat Pro and save them as a pdf or Encapsule Postscript and then try opening it in CS2.

  • Upgraded to Tiger and now can't open any illustrator files! Please help me!

    I upgraded my OS to Tiger and then updated to 10.4.8 and now can't get any of my Illustrator EPS files to open. I have spent the whole day trying to figure this one out (Launch Services advice in other posts) without any luck. What is going on here?!!! I have so much serious work to get done this weekend!
    Please help me!

    It's hard for anyone to offer any advice when you don't tell us what specifically is happening or not happening. Is there an error message? If so, what does it say? What version of Illustrator are you using? Does Illustrator open at all? Does it open regular Illustrator files? Have you reinstalled Illustrator?

    I want to open a Illustrator file in Illustrator CS4 but i am getting this message "This is an adobe illustrator file that was saved without PDF content..." I tried the save as option with "Create PDF compatible file" option but still same message is showing. PLEASE HELP.
    Thanks in advance.

    I have uploaded the files to my dropbox - Dropbox - AI
    I would really appreciate it if anyone is willing to down-save the version of these files to Illustrator CS4 and send it to me.
    thanks

    Hi George ,
    Is it happening with all the PDF' or any specific one?
    Could you please share the error message so that we can replicate at our end ?
    Try repairing reader  once and see if that fixes the issue.

  • Cannot open old Illustrator files (pre version 8) in CS4 trial

    Hi
    I am thinking of upgrading from Illustrator CS2 to CS4. However, I have downloaded the trial version and have found that Illustrator CS4 cannot open old Illustrator files earlier than version 8 (pre 2000) whereas Illustrator CS2 had no problem with this. I do not want to resave my old files as there are way too many of them (hundreds!).
    I am running Windows XP.
    Has anyone else had this problem?
    Thanks

    Exactly what happens when you attempt to open one of these old files in AI 14 (CS4)? (If you get an error message, what does it say?)
    Can you post a sample file up on a server or service and provide the link here? That way, others with AI 14 can test to see whether it's something peculiar to your installation.
    Please also tell us exactly how you are attempting to open the files. (Double-clicking in Explorer? Using File | Open from within Illustrator? Dragging and dropping onto an AI 14 shortcut?)
    >...CS4 cannot open old Illustrator files earlier than version 8...
    I find it very difficult to believe AI 14 can open version 8 but not version 7 files. There was no significant change in the native file format.

  • Problems opening a mov file on quicktime

  • My computer broke, so I had to change the hardisk(?). Now iTunes dosen't work anymore. It says that the program is either lockes, on a locked unit or I don't have the right to open the library? Help please? :)

    My computer broke, so I had to change the hardrive-hardisk(?). Now iTunes dosen't work anymore. It says that the program is either locked, is on a locked unit or I don't have the right to open the library? Help please?

    Sometimes a restart can fix this issue, but sometimes you have to fix the iTunes Library.itl file.
    Try quitting iTunes, renaming the itunes file "iTunes Library.itl" to "iTunes Library Old.itl"
    then open itunes again
    This should generate a new library file.
    From this point you can try two different avenues.
    1. Re-add everything to your library by going to the iTunes file menu, and selecting "add to library"
    2. You can try deleting the iTunes Library.itl you created, changing the name of the old file back to iTunes Library.itl
    I hope this helps. I did something like this a while back and it worked for me.

  • Lightroom 1.4 - problem opening up NEF files

    Hi there,
    I've been having problems opening up NEF files in Lightroom 1.4, a message keeps coming up saying that the file is not recognised. I'm using a MacBook Pro and can't get a solution - can someone please advise on the best course of action?
    Thanks!

    >a Nikon D3
    I don't think that one is supported in LR 1.4. The camera was released after LR 1.4 was released. To get support for that camera, either upgrade to LR 2 or convert the NEF files to dng using the free DNG converter that you can download from http://www.adobe.com/products/dng/

  • I am using PSE 9. I had no problem opening my Raw files from my Canon Rebel XT  Now  I have a Rebel 5ti and pse 9 won't reconize the Cr2 files

    I am using PSE 9. I had no problem opening my Raw files from my Canon Rebel XT  Now  I have a Rebel 5ti and pse 9 won't reconize the Cr2 files

    See this faq:
    FAQ: Will Photoshop Elements work with my camera, or Why won't my raw files open?
    That will explain why each new camera model uses its own raw format. (.CR2 does not indicate a format, only a Canon family of formats).
    The first link tells you what version of camera raw is needed for your camera : https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    You need ACR 7.4
    The second link tells you which ACR versions are supported by Elements versions Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    PSE9 supports version 6.5
    Further down on that paper, you get links to download the free Adobe DNGconverter for Mac or Win.
    This standalone software can batch convert a whole folder of raw files to the DNG raw file format that your present PSE9 can read.
    Otherwise, you would have to upgrade to version 10 or later.
