.psd files not opening

I use Photoshope Elements 9 to do scrapbooking.  My desire is to us Dropbox so I can work on my laptop or on my destop.  All of my photos are on my laptop.
I moved some .jpg files, .mob files, and some .psd files to dropbox off of my laptop.  When I tried to open them on my desktop, the .jpg and .mov files were fine.  The .psd files opened the Photoshop Elements 9 program, but gav me the following message, "could not complete your request because Photoshop Elements does not recognize this type of file." 
Since the file was made in Photoshop Elements 9, I'm wondfering why it won't open on my desktop when I send it by Dropbox.

It’s possible DropBox uses versioning or some form of compression on PSD files if they are a large size.

  • PSD File Not Opening - Error When Opening

    Hi there! I have been working on this PSD file for a long time... it's a design for my organization's next website.
    Now recently I went to open up the file and got this error (images... shows what happens when I click ok at each popup).
    I have tried anything I could find online on recovering PSD files and all that, but no luck. Now one thing though that did stand out for me was that when I go to File - Open, the preview of the file when I last edited does show up.
    Does this mean there is hope and a way to fix this file? I REALLY need the file up and running.
    I would greatly appreciate any help. Also I will be more than happy to send the file to anyone who could repair it for me.
    Thanks!

    Does this mean there is hope and a way to fix this file?
    No. If it is a persistent thumbnail in the file, it is a separate data chunk and this does in no way imply that while this partt is intact, other parts would be.
    I REALLY need the file up and running.
    You know, people use versioning/ incremental saving and backup copies so they can always go one version back and avoid such problems. I just need to look at your file opening dialog and get nightmares. Work files don't belong unorganized on your desktop. They go into an individual folder on a separate partition/ drive and then you save a new version with every siginificant step. I mean, you could have accidentally deleted the file while cleaning up your desktop and then what? Really, you need to work on the fundamentals here and straighten out your workflow. Other than that it's probably more effective to simply re-create the file from scratch instead of wasting time trying to find a fix for something that very likely can't bve fixed at this point...

  • Psd files not opening in CC but in CS6

    even when I change prefs of psd files by command i and choose to change all the files so psd will open in CC, the windows before I close it returns to Ps CS6

    OK, it took me a few minutes but I found the solution. Unzipping the template in Archive Utility gave me the wrong folder. Unzipping it in Stuffit Expander gave me a fine Pages template. So I guess my problem is solved.

  • Why is my .psd file not rendering correctly in ae

    Some layers of the .psd document are not rendered correctly. However they are imported.
    The strange thing is that when I first move from Photoshop to Illustrator, save it as an .ai file it is rendered properly (in Ae).
    I am kind of clueless as to what is causing this issue.
    Kind regards,
    Jelle

    Okay if more information is needed, i'll provide. However you may disregard my initial comment about illustrator. It flattens the photoshop layers so I do not have any flexibility in After Effects. In other words, my main question remains: why is my psd file not rendering correctly in ae?
    Further details:
    -photoshop cc and after effects cc.
    -macbook pro retina
    If still not clear enough, please tell me what details you are looking for furthermore

  • PDF File not opening in browser for sharepoint 2010

    Recently we have moved our web application from one server to another in Sharepoint 2010. Back up of entire web application was taken and restored in another server. But in the new server , the PDF files in the document library is not getting opened in browser.
    it always open in browser
    I have already made following changes but didn,t work
    Set browser file handling to Permissive from central admin
    Set "open in browser" in setting s of doc library
    Set the doc library file handling property using $docLib = $web.lists["Your Document Library Title"] $docLib.BrowserFileHandling = "Permissive" $docLib.Update()
    Added "AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeType.Add("Application/Pdf") in web app
    Installed Adober eader in client machine
    Even after trying all these, the PDF files are still opening in Client application(Adobe reader) but not in the browser
    It would have been great help if anybody provide a solution for this. I have been banging head on this for two days

    It would be handy if you didn't double post too.

    To answer your question, you've tried most things that I normally see working, but there may be an extra solution here for you.  The solution 2 Powershell that deals with updating the Inline MimeType may help.

  • Pdf file not opening on pushing fdf file with F key in Adobe  Reader

    Well i am a novice developer in case of PDF Development.
    The problem which i am facing is:-
    In our application a PDF document submits the data to server and server sends back FDF to client with f key as http path of PDF which is present on web server.
    This all works well in acrobat professional 7.0 but in abobe reader 8.0 the PDF file doesn't open up on pushing FDF.
    On debugging the problem i found out that if server sends response within 480 milliseconds then reader is showing the pdf otherwise it don't shows up.Since in our application it will always take more than this time because of several operation performed to serve the request posted to server,So the
    PDF will never show up in case of reader.
    I was unable to understand what make it special in acrobat professional that session lasts more than 480 milliseconds whereas in reader the session doesn't last that long.
    I really need uregent help on this.
    Thanks in advance for help.

  • Quick Time file not opening

    Suddenly QuickTime 7.5.5 stopped opening the movies stored in one Hard Disc.
    Here are descriptions of how problem occurs:
    1) The preview in finder +column view+ shows only blank space, but not a movie.
    2) Instead of opening the file QT claims that "This is not a movie file"
    3) Not all the movies in the disk are injured but about 80 % of them. There might be in same folder movies that behaves normally and movies that behaves as described above.
    I have restarted the machine few times and repaired the disk with disk utility, with not any couraging results...
    If there were any ideas what the problem might be, and how to fix it, advices would be very much appreciated.
    Screenshots of the problem:
    http://koti.welho.com/tsuonio1/File-not-open.jpg

    Two possibilities spring to mind. One is that the HD itself has been damaged somehow. Try copying one of the "bad" video files to your boot drive and opening from there. If it won't copy, your HD is clearly bad, if it copies and plays then something weirder is going on with the drive.
    The other possibility has to do with the h264 codec you used. Apple's implementation of the H264 standard is a work in progress, they've been gradually adding features that are part of the full standard and may have broken something. If you recently upgraded QT that may be the problem. If you created the files using a third party H264 codec that might explain the playback problems. Also, you should install Perian (www.perian.org) and see if that helps, their codec plays back many formats that Apple doesn't support out of the box.
    You may need to upload one of the bad files to an filesharing website of some kind so that other folks here can download and look at it themselves.

  • .indd files not opening with recently installed Indesign CS3

    The .indd files don't have the Indesign icon next to them, instead they have the win32 icon. When I double click on one of the files an error message appears telling me that...
    "this file is not a valid win32 application"
    Even when I right-click on the file and choose to open with Indesign, it tells me the same thing. Also in this options menu, Indesign is not shown with the Indesign logo next to it, but rather the windows generic 'unknown file type' logo.
    If I open Indesign first however, and then choose file>open and choose the file. It opens fine.

    Exactly my situation yesterday, with the icon disappearing and INDD files not opening within InDesign from Explorer.
    I'm using an early XP Pro, which I guess qualifies it as 32 bit.
    The steps to rebuilding everything using the Folder Options in Windows Explorer are:
    Tools > Folder Options > File Types
    If INDD is not listed, click the New button to creat an entry, otherwise select it and click the Advanced button.
    You have an option to change the icon, so navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS3 and select the InDesign icon.
    Then under actions you need to create four actions that will relate to the context menu choices when you right click an INDD files, so click New and add actions for edit, open, preview and print.
    In the Application used to perform action box enter "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS3\InDesign.exe" "%1"
    Those quote marks are important. Just browsing to InDesign.exe will fill the box for you, but for some reason - for me at least - it creates the %1 indicating to open the file you selected, but it doesn't wrap it in quotes. And without those quotes (at least on my machine) InDesign will start but won't load the file.
    There is also a check box to use DDE. I don't know what's appropriate here, but I ticked the box and it works OK.

  • Linked PSD files not found when opening .ai files via shared folder

    My main user folder on the iMac is set to be shared (read/write, including all enclosed files) with my MacBook Pro so that I can get someone to help me on a big job. The job is a series of one-page InDesign files (they are newspaper advertisements). The IDD files contain a series of Illustrator files with linked PSD files.
    The idea is that we can both work on the .idd and .ai files in the same folder at the same time.
    It's all working fine EXCEPT that whenever an .ai file is opened on the MacBook, Illustrator doesn't know where the linked PSD files are. We can update the link, but when the .ai file is then opened on the iMac and saved, the same thing happens the next time it is opened on the Macbook.
    I don't want to embed the PSD files into the .ai files as sometimes I have to modify them and they can be linked to up to 20 .ai files. Any ideas?
    G5 iMac OSX 10.7.5 / Macbook Pro OSX 10.8.2 / networked via FireWire cable / file sharing on, laptop user has Administrator status, all files are read/write, permissions include all enclosed files / CS6

    If you are rebooting the computer holding down T to share via firewire, that is your problem. that mounts the other computer as a hardrive and probably messes up the filepath.
    Turn on sharing via Ethernet or wireless
    Connecting two computers using Ethernet
    You can use an Ethernet cable to connect two Mac computers and share files or play network games.
    To connect two computers using Ethernet:
    Connect a standard Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on one computer to the Ethernet port on the other. You don’t need to use an Ethernet crossover cable.
    If your computer doesn’t have an Ethernet port, try using a USB-to-Ethernet adapter.
    On each computer, choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Sharing. Note the computer name for each computer.
    In the Finder on one of the computers, choose Go > “Connect to Server,” and then click Browse.
    Double-click the other computer in the window and enter your password, if necessary.
    If you manually configured the TCP/IP settings for the Ethernet service on the computer you are connecting to, you may need to enter that computer’s TCP/IP address in the “Connect to Server” dialog.
    To see or set the TCP/IP address, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Network, and select Ethernet in the list.

  • Opening PSD File - Not Enough Memory

    I created a sequence of images from Particle Illusion in a PSD format. When I open one of the images in Photoshop (CS3), it opens - no problem. When I try to open it in Illustrator CS3, I get the message "Not enough memory to place the file".

    On Windows XP 64, opening PSD files with Illustrator CS3 does not seem to work.
    What you can do to resolve this issue is to save the file as PNG in Photoshop. That can be opened in Illustrator and transprency is preserved.

  • Getting file compatibility error on PSD files being opened in same program they were created in.

    After creating and saving a PSD file in Photoshop CC, then re-opening it on the same computer in the same program/version, I'm getting the error: Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop. This is a recent issue, but one I've now had on sseveral different files.
    I'm running the latest update of CC on Mac OS 10.9. I have also tried opening the file on other computers running the same version of Photoshop, and am getting the same error.
    Any ideas on how I can fix this/prevent this?

    Hi Larry,
    I am embarressed to say that I am not sure! . Today was the very first day I opened illustrator.
    I started with the Adobe Production Premium suite about 10 months ago. I have been focusing on After Effects and Premier mostly, with a little bit of Photoshp for good measure. The training book that I bought has information on how all the Adobe products work together. It is actually quite exciting, and I hope to polish up our workflow considerably with it.
    All this said, as a result, I have not changed any of the standard default settings - this adds to my view that you and Moika are correct, that I am runnign out of space in some "Under the Hood" way when trying to save.
    If I start a new project in AI and type "abiabioa"  - it saves as a .ai file fine - If I open the project PNG file given, and try to save with no edits ant all - the program closes.
    It is 19H39 here now - if I go to sleep soon, it will be morning quicker and I will provide feedback! (it's Christmas time - I believe I am allowed to regress to childish thought patterns in relation to time!)

  • Jpg and pdf files not opening

    has anyone come across an issue with jpg or psd files created in photoshop not being able to be opened by recipients?

    thank you for your help. I have zipped the files before emailing and the recipient was able to open the files. Although this is a solution, it is a bit weird that it only happens when i send to certain people.
    Thanks again. Jo

  • PSD files not importing properly into AFX CS5?

    I'm having a bit of trouble with After Effects CS5 and Photoshop CS5 .psd files.
    Basically I've got a few images that I want to import into AFX as .psd files but when ever I do, all the images show the exact same image, yet when I open them in Photoshop CS5 the image that I made is there so I know I haven't saved over my files.
    This occurs wether importing as multiple files or singular. I click the Photoshop sequence option as well as clicking the composition - keep all layer styles.
    What am I doing wrong and why aren't my images showing up as individual images but rather all of them being the same one image regardless of what I've imported?
    Do I have to import as footage rather than composition?
    Thank you and hope that made sense, if not, please ask me to explain as I need to fix this quite fast.
    Thank you.

    Thank you for that.
    I've just been importing them as footage and that seems to be working fine as well.
    I shall try without the Photoshop Seqeunce ticked.
