Psd files are getting corrupted

Hi
I am using PSE11 on a Mac, and have experienced PSD files getting corrupted twice now. They are digital scrapbooking files, where I have started with a layered PSD file 'template' and personalised it (with lots of effort!). I save it and close it. Later I try and reopen it and it will not open. The Adobe Photoshop Elements dialog box says 'Reading Photoshop Format' but it just gets stuck - the progress bar does not move beyond 1/3. This is really bothersome as last time it happened I had no option but to start over and redo the layout. Any ideas or suggestions as to why or how this might be happening? What could I do about it? I am reluctant to reinstall PSE, as I prefer version 11, have no disc, and last time it took many calls to Adobe to be directed to a place where I could download it (they kept telling me I would HAVE to buy the latest version.
Thanks, J

A little more info about the files and just how you're saving them would help, as would info about your version of PSE. What color space are the files? Have you reset your PSE preferences?

All my .psd files are corrupt after a pc restart...

What the hell?!?! What could have caused it and is there any chance I can restore anything ... Everything on my pc seems ok but the psd files ...
"Could not complete your request because it is not a valid Photoshop document."
This is what I get
I am using Photoshop CC on Windows 7

It sounds unlikely that multiple PSD files have become corrupted. My first thought when seeing the thread title was a bad Windows FAT (File Allocation Table) but even that sounds unlikely to only affect PSD files. So I'd be looking at the common denominator, which is Photoshop. Have you tried creating a new document, and saving and reopening?
I think I'd try opening the files with another app like Irfanview, or just reinstalling Photoshop. Do you have the files backed up?

SQL Anywhere 11 databases are getting corrupt

Hi
We are having problems with databases that are getting corrupted.
We have a server that runs a SQL Anywhere 11 database. (the consolidated database)
Beside that, we have about 15 remote databases that run on the laptops of our mobile workforces.
To keep all databases in sync, we have setup a two-way server-to-laptop replication.
For the replication process we use “SQL Remote”.
Each laptop should replicate his data once in about 1 or 2 weeks.
For exchanging the messages we use the message type “file”.
This year we already experienced 6 times that a remote database got corrupt after replication. (after running dbremote.exe).
The log file of the dbremote utility does NOT show any errors, the replication seems to be finished without any problems.
But after this, it’s not possible anymore to connect to the database, because of the following assertion error:
[Sybase][ODBC Driver][SQL Anywhere]Internal database error *** ERROR *** Assertion failed: 201501 (11.0.1.2376)
Page 0x0:0x7182d1 for requested record not a table page -- transaction rolled back
Error code=-301
SQL state=HY000
Can someone tell me more about this error?
What goes wrong and why?
Or does someone has some tips on how to prevent this or tips on how I can do some analyzing myself to see what exactly got broken in the database?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Krenton,
Page 0x0:0x7182d1 for requested record not a table page -- transaction rolled back
Error code=-301
SQL state=HY000
Can someone tell me more about this error?
Specifically, the page at offset 0x7182d1 in database (So if you have a 4KB page size, this would be byte offset 7439057 x 4096 = 30470377472 into the database) in 0x0 (the main database running) has a page header that indicates that the data on the page is not table data. We don't know what it is, but the signature for table information connected to the table you're scanning is 'not as it should be'.
What goes wrong and why?
In the real world, lots of things can go wrong. I list some of the possible things on this question here on the SQL Anywhere forum. This list can include software bugs, but can also include instances where the media is not respecting write-through or write-ordering - see http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-34090 (SQL Anywhere I/O Requirements for Linux and Windows) for more details.
There are also known instances where Intel drivers are not set with the correct write-through settings. The details of this are in the documentation: DocCommentXchange (Improving Robustness on Intel storage drivers).
Technical Support should still provide assistance. If the problem is a newly-discovered bug in SQL Anywhere 11, their advice will be to apply a more recent EBF or upgrade to a new version. However, that is unlikely in this case.
Breck is correct - it would probably be best to take a look at the database file in technical support for more clues as to what's happening here. With the current information, it's hard to say more than "something was not correct at the time the page was looked at by the database server."

The password file is getting corrupted after rebooting the standby database

Hi,
The password file is getting corrupted after rebooting the standby database.
Since the databases are not in sync, I had to copy the pwfile from primary to standby to make 'em sync.
(BUT.... the pwfile is not getting corrupted every time I reboot the standby by)
Could somebody please explain the reason for the pwfile on the standby database getting corrupted while rebooting ?

When forwarding Word or PDF Files they get corrupted

I have several users that when they forward either a word document of a pdf file they get corrupted. If I forward directly from Outlook (2007) they are perfectly fine.
Anybody know what is happening? We tend to send a lot of word/pdf files.
Thanks

Okay, let me be specific here.
I have:
Adobe Technical Communication Suite 2 fully installed and licensed to this computer.
I also have an older version of Robohelp 7 installed.
Both have all the updates done.
The machine also has:
MS Office 2003
and the updated Adobe Distiller program.
What I want to do is to "print" - IE, generate - a Word document version AND a PDF version of my current Robohelp 8 project.
(Ignore this part, because this is not the issue. The generation of the files is the issue. Nothing else. The block, and the problem is that I cannot get Word or PDF files to generate from Robohelp 8.)
What I will do with this is convert the Word doc BACK to Robohelp 7, AND import the Word doc in FrameMaker.
(But again, we do not care about what I'm going to do with the files. The end result is not important. What is important, again, is:)
I cannot "print" - IE, generate, a Word document AND/OR a PDF version of my current Robohelp 8 project from the generate dialogue box.
I'm hoping that this clarifies the issue, since there are no add-ons to what I'm trying to do here. I'm not dancing the angels around the head of the legacy pin, I'm not trying to open a R8 in R7, I'm not trying to cure cancer or shoot a bulls-eye at 1,200 feet.
I am trying to "print", IE, generate, a Word document OR a PDF from my current Robohelp 8 environment and cannot do so.
(Sorry for the excessive description, but it looked like we were branching off into realms that weren't the problem at all.)
In response to Peter - I did try a sample project, and the same issue occurs. When I click "Printed Documentation" in either of the projects, a popup comes up that says "Parameter is Incorrect". This is an unmodified item that I'm opening - stock off the installation.

Files keep getting corrupted.

Heavily used, shared, files keep getting corrupted. Seems like StarOffice8 or Solaris (not sure which is responsible) doesn't do file locking! If someone opens the file, when it's already open, there's no indication of that! Obviously that can lead to edits being lost. However, the bigger problem is if 2 people save at the exact same time. In that case the file becomes completely mangled and unreadable!
Anyone have some solutions out there?

The Captivate version number is shown at Help > About Adobe Captivate. But you have to be quick because it's right at the top and the list of credits start's scrolling immediately. Annoys the heck out of me.
Having Admin rights to your PC is not the same as Run As Administrator on an app. It's one of the (many) changes to the Vista and Win7 OSs intended to prevent malicious software from gainin a foothold.
If you're in a corporate IT environment chances are you don't have admin rights to your PC because that prevents people from willy nilly installing apps on their own workstations. However, a good IT Support dude (who usually all DO have admin rights to everyone's computer) can usually configure the security privileges for a particular application to give you admin rights to it.
In the case of Captivate 5x and Win7, the app MUST be set up to Run As Administrator. Otherwise some things just don't work.

Still locks up iTunes for between 2 minutes up to 20 minutes.
Really annoying.
If you find a fix please, please let me know, I have just been throwing hardware at it with no joy at all

I am having an issue in PS CS6 (on a Mac) where in the middle of working on a file, it gets corrupted by filling in a grid of squares in my layer masks as well as deleting out those same sections of misc layers throughout the file. I have reset the preferences, cleaned up the file. Renamed it to another file and 2 weeks later it is doing the same thing. Luckily I had my main subjects as smart objects and it saved them. This second time I just closed it out and opened it again and it is fine. Anybody else have an issue with this? Also it runs really slow these days on my MacBook Pro Retina 2.6 Core i7 with 16gb Ram.

Empty files are getting created at receiver FTP server

Hi Experts,
I have an Idoc to File scenario where I am sending an XML file to receiver FTP server.
Scenario is working fine but sometimes an empty file is getting generated at receiver FTP server.
I have already selected ignore empty file at receiver channel so issue is not within PI system configuration.
When I checked the message log I can see that almost all the files are getting created successfully without any issues, but
for some files/messages I can see that there are below error logs.
"Transmitting the message to endpoint <local> using connection IDoc_AAE_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: Could not get FTP connection from connection pool (1 connections) within 5,000 milliseconds; increase the number of available connections"
"Exception caught by adapter framework: Could not get FTP connection from connection pool (1 connections) within 5,000 milliseconds; increase the number of available connections."
And after there is again success message log in the same message and it creating a file successfully during that time stamp.
but the third party is sometime receiving empty file which I am not able to find in any trace or log (my file name is SD_timestamp.xml).
Can you please let me know what is the solution and what adjustments FTP server need to do in order to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Rahul Kulkarni

The error you are getting that says "Could not get FTP connection from connection pool (1 connections) within 5,000 milliseconds; increase the number of available connections" has probably nothing to do with the empty files problem.
I second Hareesh Gampa that you first should try "temporary file creation". You might also need to tell the FTP owner that he should only pick up files with that are written completely and that do comply with a negotiated file name schema. The temp file should have another schema of course then. He should not pick up just every file that is written. See here for details

Captivate 5 files keep getting corrupted

Our entire office all got Windows 7 (64 bit) and a lot of coworkers' Captivate 5 files are getting the same error message: the file is unable to open, the file is damage, hard disk not having space, etc.
Are we doing something wrong? If so, how we do correct that?
Or is there some compatibility issue between CP5 and Windows 7??

Placed PSD files are grainy

This is a recent occurence.
I always place PSD files into InDesign docs so I can just click to edit. But recently, the images are very noisy/grainy, even though they are not in Photoshop. Print quality is terrible...these are high resolution, edited images.
When I save the PSD files as max JPGs and place them into InDesign, the images are beautiful again.
I've been doing this forever without issue. Current setup is Creative Suite Design Pro CS5.5--I also use LightRoom before exporting to Photoshop for final editing.
The images are beautiful in Photoshop, whether PSD or JPG. And half of the images on the InDesign page are PSD and they are great, too.
But a few of the PSD files are awful--when I replace them with JPGs they're fine.
Any idea what's happening? For years, this has been a tried and true workflow for me.
Thanks in advance.

I switch back and forth from high to typical. The other photos look great, as do these once I replace the psds with jpgs.

The words in the .docx (MSWord 2010) file are getting merged when the file is transferred to another computer for printing. What could be the reason?

The words in my .docx file are getting merged when the file is transferred to another computer for printing. For eg. the sentence "rate of success ......" is displayed as "rateof success" on the other computer. What could
be the reason for this? How to solve this issue?

Have you checked that the document is using the exact same font on both machines? If the second machine doesn't have the font installed that's used in the original document on the first machine, Word will pick the closest matching font, and that may
display slightly differently.

Coded UI - Test Results/Out - The binary files are getting copied to the TestResults/Out folder

Hi,
I am using Visual Studio 2013 for developing the Coded UI Automation Scripts.
Whenever I execute a Coded UI Automation Script, the binary files are getting copied to the TestResults/Out folder.
I do not want these binary files to be copied to OUT folder, and I have tried disabling the Deployment option under Test Settings > Deployment, but still the behavior is the same.
Could you please advice, how to disable copying binary files into the Out directory.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Karthick K

Hi Karthick K,
From your description, as far as I know that when we enable Tracing and HtmlLogger for Coded UI Test and then run the coded UI test, we will get the Test Results/Out folder automatically.
So it is default that the Out folder includes some files like codeduitestproject6.dll, CodedUITestProject6.pdb etc, we could not disable copying binary files into the Out directory.
However, there have a replace workaround is I suggest you can disable Tracing and HtmlLogger for Coded UI Test. After you disable the Tracing and HtmlLogger for Coded UI Test, it will not generate the Out folder.
Similarly, it will not get the binary files.

.css and .swf files are getting generated with Ibot email

Hi Team,
I have an Ibot which use to run on daily basis which contains graph and normal table views, .css and .swf files are getting generated and attached with Ibot email to the users. I'm facing this issue from last two days. Earlier there was no such attachments sent to the users.
Could anybody let me know what might be the reason for that?

any inputs?

My word files are all corrupted- when i open 'get info' under "More info" they all have 'Photos for Personal Use or Home Display" and Authors: technology

My Word files are corrupted. When I open 'Get Info' then 'More Info' I find 'Photos for Personal Use or Home Display' and 'Authors' : Technology. - Nothing to do with the file I'd just written. My most recent files can't be saved or opened.
Is this Malware or some other kind of attack? I grabbed photos yesterday from what seem to be freely available pictures online. I discovered Firevault and Firewall were both turned off. (I hadn't checked before.) Any suggestions?

Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start
with Option #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
