PS7.0.1 Could not open file because it is not the right kind of

Hi:
With prior versions of PS I could open a .pdf, either from a single page file or from the whole document. But now using PS7.0.1 the subject error message is all that I get. I'm using a registered version of Acrobat 9 Pro to do the extraction. The goal is to extract a drawing from the pdf document, clean it up in PS and save for web publication.
I've looked at the forums, knowledgebase and Google with no luck.
Any ideas on how to get it to work?
Have Fun,
Brooke Clarke

Hi Buko:
-------SOLVED--------
In Acrobat under File Export there is an option for images in a number of different formats. Just the thing.
Thanks again & Have Fun,
Brooke Clarke

  • Garage band can not open files because sound can't be found

    can not open file. it says sounds are not on computer. but they certenly are! it offers me to buy it.... of i dont do.
    i meen i used that sound to create that file...
    one day it just worked again for some times. but now same problem again...

    Please repost in the InDesign forum. It sounds like a permissions issue. Please state your OS, your version of InDesign, and the location of the files that you cannot edit.
    BTW, in Lion, Apple decided that older files cannot be opened for editing. You need to open the file and do a save as to create an editable file. This is supposed to protect you from accidentally overwriting old files. I think it is a little big brotherish. But some have said they are happy with the new way of handling old files.

    If you can read this ... go for it.  For info, we have an app that gets county data, makes a PDF and allows a user to open or save it.  Out of the 12 districts and 88 counties we have, some districts and their counties work fine.  2 in District 5, 3 in District 4, these all produce this error.
    A "Cause" given at this link: http://kb.calyxsupport.com/kb/article.php?id=769 is that a corrupting character exists in the file path and/or the filepath is too long.  On this line of thought, it is being looked into if these 5 instances are somehow corrupting the file path when it is being concatenated in the app or, in the case of these 5 instances we know of, is the concatenated file path too long?
    Well, in case the rubbish leads to an answer, there you have it!

  • In Photoshop Elements 10, when I try to save a photo, I get the error message: "Could not save file because there is not enough memory (RAM)." I have plenty of RAM and no other programs running. Why am I getting this message?

    Why?

    The problem with write permissions for the OneDrive folder only shows up in Lightroom 6's export dialogue, that's why it's to irritating. Lightroom 5.7.1 is not having that problem nor does the file explorer. The problem also exists on both of my machines. I will try to check for other problems with the OneDrive troubleshooter though: Running the OneDrive troubleshooter - Windows Help   

  • Adobe Reader could not open "file"

    Adobe Reader could not open "file" because it is either not a supported file or it has been damaged. All files and programs on the desktop are shown as Adobe Reader ikons. When I remove the Adobe Reader program, the desktop is ok but when I reinstall the Adobe Reader it makes a mess again on the desktop and in all programs. It seems that the Adobe Reader is somehow a default program for all applications. How do I solve that problem? Best regards Helle D.

    For your first question: are you sure that 'file' is a PDF file and that it is not damaged? And you may find this useful for your second question:

    Actually if you look to the right of this page in the "More Like This " section you'll see people reporting a -3001 error message when using Software Update. I think these are quite old discussions but among the solutions are a Permissions Repair or updating through a new user account. It would cost nothing to try.

  • Fatal error : can not open file 'msvcrt.lib'

    Hello dudes !
    I am using windows and jdk1.6. I want to develop one application using JNI. As steps for JNI, i have created Helloworld java class and compiled it, then created header file using jnh. After that i have created HelloWorld.c file.
    To build dll file, i am executing the below command
    "cl -Ic:\java\include -Ic:\java\include\win32 -MD -LD HelloWorld.c -FeHelloWorld.dll".
    Command giving the output as follows:
    HelloWorld.c
    Microsoft (R) Incremental Linker Version 8.00.50727.42
    Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
    /dll
    /implib:HelloWorld.lib
    /out:HelloWorld.dll
    HelloWorld.obj
    LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'MSVCRT.lib'
    Can anybody say why it is giving this problem.
    Also i tried giving the msvcrt.lib path as the value for -MD option,
    cl -Ic:\java\include -Ic:\java\include\win32 -MD"c:\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\lib" -LD HelloWorld.c -FeHelloWorld.dll
    Then it is giving "can not open file LIBCMT.lib" .
    Note : ...\VC\lib and ....\VC\include are added in the path.
    Can anybody tell the solution for this ?
    Thanks in advance!!

    Hi,
    I was with the same problem. You have set the your VCC environment.
    Path, Include and Lib.
    In your directory VCC (2003 toolkit), you have a .bat file (vcvars32.bat)
    Run the bat, or copy and past this command in your command prompt.
    In my compilation, I run the code, wihtout -MD and -LF. In your, just:
    cl -Ic:\java\include -Ic:\java\include\win32 HelloWorld.c -FeHelloWorld.dll
    thanks,

  • "Could not open scratch file because disc is not available" Mac

    I recently changed the Photoshop (CS6) Scratch Disk choice from the default Boot Drive to one of the other internal drives in my MacPro (OS 10.6.8).
    When I restart Photoshop (CS6) I get the message:
    "Could not open scratch file because disc is not available"
    and Photoshop will not launch.
    I then restart Photoshop with "Command - alt - shift" keys held down
    (as per suggestion at <http://forums.adobe.com/message/3937003>)
    and reset the preferences which allows Photoshop to come back.
    (Resetting preferences returned the Boot Drive to scratch disk status.)
    I have another MacPro that - same OS 10.6.8 and Adobe CS6 - and I don't have this scratch disk allocation problem.
    What is going on with the one  MacPro that prevents me from selecting a Photoshop scratch disk other than the boot drive?

    Ignore Ownership worked. Thank you!
    I saw this suggestion on another Discussion thread but wondered if that could be the problem since the non-boot scratch disks used on other computers here do not have this property chosen.
    "Permissions", "Ignore Ownership", and "apply to enclosed items" remain a mystery to me.
    As for Terminal, I've had my hand held a couple of times while I went there and it was not a comforting experience.
    Our work setup depends on complete access by everybody to everything (Read&Write Privileges apply to everyone here). We occasionally swap drives between computers which may cause problems, but why should it and how am I to know. The computer that prompted this discussion had its main hard drive replaced a couple of months ago which may have contributed to the problem.
    Is there a down-side to ignoring ownership on everything and having "read-write" privileges apply to everyone (aside from lax security)?

    Hi,
    The D810 requires Camera Raw 8.6 or later - the latest version that is compatible with Photoshop Elements 12 is Camera Raw 8.5 as far as I can see.
    You need to either buy a new version of Photoshop Elements or use the free Adobe DNG converter.

    Have recently updated Adobe Reader and now unable to open downloaded documents - Message received is could not open 'file name.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). When I check the file it shows Zero KB downloaded but the file appears - any suggestions?

    Obviously your download was not successful.
    What is your operating system?  How exactly do you download such files?

  • Using Maverick, error message: Adobe Reader could not open '***.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).

    Receiving error message using current Maverick version: "Adobe Reader could not open '***.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).".  Is fix the same as on previous OS versions?

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
    Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
    Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • "could not open scratch file because disc is not available"

    Help. I am running a new photoshop CS5 (12.0.4) on a  new I-mac running 10.7.1
    The program seem to load and authorize correctly but when I try to open it I get 2 sequential error statements
    "could not open scratch file because the disc is not available"; then

    Where do I start?

    Hi,
    having the same problem here. We have 10 Mac Pro machines with OSX 10.6.8 and CS5 Photoshop 12.0.4. By now five of these machines have given the same error: "could not open scratch file because disc is not available" and "could not save ... because of a program error".
    The scratch disk is the same one which has the system and it hasn't been touched.
    I have repaired the disk permissions.
    This just started two days ago and haven't noticed it before. Any clues what could be causing this?
    Thanks,
