Problem parsing the path data

I am trying to open a PSD doc in Photoshop CS3 and I am getting an error: problem parsing the path data. Is there any way around this?

Is the icon really an alias? Aliases have a hard-to-see arrow in the lower left corner. If you click once on the icon and do a Get Info, you'll be told if it's an alias, and if so, where the original is, or once was if the original is gone.
Following Ramon and Buko's advice, I got rid of Norton products and several minor irritations at the same time.

  • Problem parsing the path data - error on jpgs

    Photoshop CS2 v9.0.2 Windows XP SP2
    Received the following error message in CS2: "Could not complete your request because of a problem parsing the path data"
    I began getting the message above after adding ITPC data to three .jpg files. The message appears when I try to open the files from either Bridge or Windows Explorer. Other files are not affected. The .psd master file with the same metadata opens ok. I tried clearing the ITPC data, but this had no affect. I also tried moving the file to a different folder and renamed the file with no success. The files open ok in Windows Paint and appear ok in Bridge.
    I created the ITPC data on one file in Photoshop and saved a metadata template. Then, in Bridge 1.0.4.6 I used the "replace metadata" command on the other two files.
    I searched the knowledge base and this forum. I found only one hit in the forum from 2007, but there were no responses.
    Can anyone describe what triggers this message, and how to avoid it or fix it?
    Thanks

    Foward / backward slashes should not cause issues, as they are part of the standard character set on any system for obvious reasons, but I would more assume that this is an issue in how Windows translates the file info to native paths and tries to access those paths for verification. I seem to recall having read something along those lines recently in relation to some security issues, but I'm not really sure. anyway, does "escaping" the characters improve the matter (\\ or \/)?

  • There was a problem reading the layer data. Read the composite data instead?

    I can't open my psd with properly in Photoshop, it keeps showing :There was a problem reading the layer data. Read the composite data instead? 
    Photoshop cc
    Help please

    I just discovered this issue. Apparently if your PSD document has a tonne of layers, it will save normally. Then suppose you are working on it one day, and create lots of new additional layers...saving that will then corrupt the PSD file, as apparently the number of layers exceeds some hidden limit. You will not be able to load that back in, as Photoshop doesn't appear to allow you to do that.This issue appears for both PSD & PSB files. I lost a few weeks of updates, but recovered thanks to a few backups.
    One clue you can use to ensure you don't inadvertently save over the file (thereby corrupting it), is to try duplicating a layer or a group of layers. You will not have the option to do so. If you encounter that, immediately open a new file, and drag a few groups of layers to the new document (and deleting them in the original document). You should then go back below the 'limit', allowing you to save normally.
    As for the original corrupted file, well I tried repairing it with a whole host of tools. But nothing worked ....

  • Problem with the path of field  in process

    Hi,
    We have a problem about data/FSFIELD_ too.
    To create the form we have used a wsdl connection.
    And when we make a process we have :
    /process_data/demandeForm/object/data/xdp/datasets/data/FSFIELDS_
    So we can't acces to elments of the wsdl form.
    When we execute the process nothing happend, so we think it's normal because we don't have acces to elements.
    We have tried to change the path :
    /process_data/demandeForm/object//data/form1/Body/getRequestState/in0,
    using the xml schema of the form ( form1/Body/getRequestState/in0 )
    and we tried /process_data/demandeForm/object//data/in0
    but this solution doesn't work.
    (in0 is the field name).
    Have you any idea ? please

    In the situation where no schema exists the process variable has no concept of the structure of the xml data that is being used. Hence it uses the FSFIELDS_ node as a placeholder for the root node. So if you know the path starting from the root to get to the node that you want then you can create an expression (by typing it in) that looks like this:
    /process_data/demandeForm/object/data/xdp/datasets/data/FSFIELDS_/rootnode/next node/next node/target node
    Or you can use the XPath ability to search for the node by using a double slash. Th eexpression woul look like this:
    /process_data/demandeForm/object/data/xdp/datasets/data/FSFIELDS_//nodename

  • How can I debug a problem with the 3g data connection on my iPhone 4s?

    This question didn't get any answers in the "Using iPhone" forum. Thought I would re-ask here. Note, I had to reset the network again today 2 days after the last reset:
    I've been having intermittent problems with my 3g data connection on my iPhone 4s on ATT. Whenever this happens I see full bars etc, but can't browse from safari or get any data in other apps. My wife's iPhone 4 right next to me has no issues at all. Switching on/off airplane mode and turning off/on Cellular Data does not help. The only thing that helps is resetting the Network Settings or hard restarting the phone.
    I figured my problems were hardware related so I took my phone in for a replacement the other day. Things started out fine but after I upgraded it to 5.01 and restored my backup and now I am back to having the same issue today. I assume the issue is with something coming from my backup / restore but is there any way for me to pinpoint what could be causing the issue. I have a lot of apps, I'd rather not have to reinstall and set them all backup manually, but I would if I knew that would fix the problem... but for all I know one of the apps could be causing it.
    Anyone have any logs I can check or testing I can do on my end?
    Thanks!

    Unfortunately, Apple does not make any logs available to the average schmoe (like us) for networking, kernel dumps, or anything else (assuming, of course, it is not jailbroken).
    Your best bet is to take it back into the store. Ask them to look at the notes in GCRM regarding the last time this occured, then explain after upgrading to 5.01 it is occuring again. Then ask them for a phone swap since it is a reoccuring issue and doesn't sound like an OS/SW issue. Good luck!

  • Parsing the respective data in the String which is dynamic

    Hi,
    I have customer application, in which we are handling the validation for customer details through a custom validator
    For example, if I have not entered the mandatory value for custFirstName.I will get an error message in my java class as below:-
    String errMsg = "Required value missing for CustomerVO.custFirstName"
    Here I need to parse the error message (ie) I need only the field and VO which causes this error hence i need "CustomerVO.custFirstName" only
    so that I can write the code to set the value for custFirstName
    Like
    if (mandatoryErrMsg){
    //parse the errorMsg and get the respective field with VO (ie)CustomerVO.custFirstName
    //and set the value
    CustomerVO customerVO = new CustomerVO();
    customerVO.setCustName("xxx");
    save(customerVO);
    Like wise i will get a different field with different VO
    Like :-
    String errMsg = "Required value missing for AddressVO.State"
    Here I need to write a generic method which parse the only the respective VO and field like in this case AddressVO.State.
    Since the VO and field can be anything. What is the min and max limit we need set for parsing and hoe we can parse only the
    respective VO and field. please provide your opinion on this.
    Thanks.

    Ram wrote:
    As per your previous post, it seems you need to parse only the last word of the error message. You can easily get the last word of the error message by using substring and lastIndex() methods.
    For example,
    String errMsg = "Required value missing for CustomerVO.custFirstName";
    String lastWord = errMsg.substring(errMsg.lastIndexOf(" ")+1);You will get "CustomerVO.custFirstName" as the value for lastWord. Now you can easily split the value String.split() method by "VO." as delimiter.
    lastWord.split("VO.");
    That's one possible approach. Without knowing more details about the forms the error message can take, we can't know if it will work in all cases. Which I pointed out in my first response, and which the OP chose to ignore when demanding we solve his problem for him in his reply.

  • Having problems parsing String to Date

    Hello,
    Could someone please explain to me why the following code snippet parses the day and year correctly but returns the month as January regardless of which date I supply?
    SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("M/D/y");
    try { Date date = format.parse("5/5/2000"); }
    catch (ParseException e) {}          
    System.out.println(date.toString());
    // returns --> Wed Jan 05 00:00:00 PST 2000

    Refer to http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html
    > SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("M/D/y");Capital 'D' indicates Day in year. So day 5 in your example refers to the fifth day in Jan. Use small 'd', which indicates Day in month ...

  • HT201699 I'm using an iPhone 4 which i purchased last month, there seems to be some kind of problem with the mobile data network

    Hi,
    I bought a new iPhone 4 last month, totally fell in love with it untill there was this problem regarding the apn disappearing. I manually added the apn info and it worked fine for some time but soon after I disabled the mobile data/3g connection and enabled it later I always use to get a msg saying "Could not activate mobile data network" even after it being active( 3g symbol always used to be poped up at the top). Though the apn is filled with a valid data it shows me the same msg over and over again. It some times works on rebooting but the rebooting the handset everytime i want to use the connection sounds very pestering. Please suggest me with somehting to get rid of this problem...

    Hi Abdul,
    Check if the data you are getting for the two fields in your data loading are correct. I think it has some illegal characters(I guess it has a trailing space). If possible try and correct it in the source system itself.
    If you are doing full load for the master data, everytime the system is going to pull these values in and throw error. One other way of avoiding it will be to maintain routines to eliminate these.
    The quickfix will be to correct it at the PSA level and load it again.
    Regards.

  • Problem with the master data loads

    Hi Guys,
                 I am trying to load 0MATERIAL_ATTR in QA,but it is throwing error(Record 2 :0MATERIAL : Data record 2 ('000000000000000012 '): Version '000000000000000012 ' is not va ) and also similar error is coming when i load for 0VERSION(Record 1 :0VERSION : Data record 1 ('000E '): Version '000 ' is not valid ).
    but for the same master data object in development with the same R/3 data the loads are successful,only in QA it is giving the problem.

  • Problems with the path

    Hi
    1. I am using WSAD 5.0
    2. I have created a web project it has the following directory struture
    Java Source
    MyFile.java // This file needs to access the xml in MyData
    Web Content
    // MyData contains few xml and js files
    MyData // POSITION 1
    META-INF
    WEB-INF
    classes
    lib
    MyData // POSITION 2
    MyShow.jsp
    3. In the buildpath the source is set to Java Source
    **Question 1: Which is the correct POSITION of the Folder 'MyData'?
    1. Assuming the folder is placed in POSTION 1
    Java file
    -- What would be correct relative path access the xml file in MyData
    (i tried ../Web Content/MyData/abc.xml,
    ./Web Content/MyData/abc.xml and
    /Web Content/MyData/abc.xml but NOTHING worked)
    <I know the ./ is for current directory and ../ is for parent one and / is for the root >
    Jsp file
    I am ABLE to access the javascript files with path /MyData/abc.js
    2. Assuming the folder is placed in POSTION 2
    Java file
    -- I am ABLE to acces the xml file with the path /MyData/abc.xml
    Jsp file
    -- The file is NOT ABLE to access the path /WEB-INF/MyData/abc.js (WSAD automatically also creates the same path)
    **Question 2: Depending on the position of folder how would i access MyData from JSP or Java file
    -- One more important thing is that in WSAD 5.1 the folder created is 'WebContent' instead of 'Web Content' <without space>, Does it has any thing to do with it?
    Any help would be highly appreciated, any links which would give my insight on this will also be of immense help
    regards
    Tarun Dhillon

    I am not sure i understand your problem, however you need to arrange your directories so that they are in a logical order from the context root for your application
    for Websphere Developer questions, you should probably try an websphere newsgroup as well.

  • Problem with the Posting Date of Goods Receipt or Invoice Receipt for PO

    Hi All,
    I am working on 2LIS_02_SCL - Purchasing Data (Schedule Line Level),
    For our report, we should get the scheduled PO quantity,actual PO qty, Scheduled date and actual date in the report.
    we are getting all these fields from the above extractor...
    For a PO which is opened (Delivery Completion indicator not set) - we where getting all field as in ECC(ME23N)
    But for a PO which is finished(Delivery completion indicator is set) - we where are getting actual GR qty,planned qty,planned or scheduled date at schedule line level.But we are not getting the Posting Date of Goods Receipt or Invoice Receipt for PO from history EKBE for all the schedule line.
    ex:
    for open PO
    PO num         item num   schedule line    Planned date   actual date  difference  actual qty  planned qty  difference
    450002432   10                        1              01/10/2011    02/10/2011       1 day          100             100             0
                                                     2              02/10/2011    04/10/2011       2 days        200             400            200
                                                     3              03/10/2011    07/10/2011       4 days         300            300              0
    For the same PO when it is Finished or completed(Delivery completion indicator is set)
    PO num         item num   schedule line    Planned date   actual date  difference  actual qty  planned qty  difference
    450002432   10                        1              01/10/2011    07/10/2011       6 day          100             100             0
                                                     2              02/10/2011    07/10/2011       5 days        200             400            200
                                                                    03/10/2011    07/10/2011       4 days         300            300              0
    for all the schedule line its displaying the last posting date(i think its taking from EKKO table)
    Is there any possibility to get that posting date history ....

    You can have multiple receipts against a PO schedule line, but this extractor is not meant to go to that level of granularity.  Please try to use 2lis_02_sgr instead which provides goods receipts per PO schedule line.

  • Problem with the master data restriction

    Hi All,
    I have a master data 0EMPLOYEE. The requirement is such that we need to restrict the future dated records i.e BEGINNING DATE <= SYSTEM -DATE. This we need to do at the extractor level which was done successfully. Now even after refreshing the master data 0EMPLOYEE in BW, I see the future dated records. May be these are the earlier records which were pulled.
    I don't want to see these records in the cube. Obviously I need to put the same logic in cube. But I need to know where should I write this code. I want to know the BEGINING DATE field is assigned to what field in the cube?
    Every where the assignment is of type "Master Data Attribute of".
    Thanks,
    Srinivas

    Hi,
    after doing at the extractot level,you need to replicate and then activate the DS.
    Then run the InfoPackage with repair full req and then run delta DTP. It should solve ur data issue.
    For Cube logic,
    You need to declare the data declaration and select stmt in start routine and then write the code in indiv level routine.
    check which field have u mapped for the masterdata and i think you can use cal day for beginning date but i'm not sure on this.
    Wait for other's suggestion.
    Cheers,
