PSE 9 Preferences:Saving Files will not stick

MacOSX 10.6, Photoshop Elements 9 - I have tried (lots of times) to set the Append File Extension: preference to Always and to check Use Lower Case. It will not stick. The next time I go into Preferences it is back to Never and the check box is unchecked. My other preference changes all seem to be saved correctly. Why does this one not save?

Let me start this with....in OS 9.2.2 I am able to delete files that are not needed from the system folder. For some odd reason when I try this in 10.3.9 it murders my system...needless to say I have printer extensions, scanner estensions,modem stuff and other not needed things living in there.
Recently I did nothing like that but also had to forcequit a program to only find that everything I opened ...might open once then it would tell me that there was an error---spit the number out---and the program would not open.
I had to do an install/archive then update to 10.3.9 again in order to gain the use of my computer and programs.
You may need to do the same thing...it is llike the cleam install of OS 9, where it replaces the system folder and stores your things into a "safe folder" to return when done. Some items may need to be manually moved and lke my printer/scanner, it needed to be reinstalled.
Insert the install cd and boot to it. Use the disk utility to repair the hd (go under the file menu I think), then choose the install and archive option (click the option button to find it). See if that helps.

Saved file will not show up when trying to attach file in mail

Sometimes... and only sometimes.. when I make a new file and then go back to my email or browser to attach the file it will not show in the place I saved it. If I click to list view SOMETIMES. I check the folder I saved it in and it's there.... .. go back to attach it.. it's not. Sometimes it will pop up if I toggle to column view then back to list view, but not always. Sometimes it's there the first time. Frustrating!!!

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
This sounds like a permissions problem. Have you recently Repaired Disk Permissions? Is the file saved on the same HD or partition where your Home folder resides?

Saved file will not open

When trying to open some files I get the error: "could not read the file because the plug-in could not understand this file"
I've posted this before and the answer I got was "save locally, not the network". I did this (it was happening in CS2 at the time) and the problem occurred less frequently, but still happened.
I'm now using CS3 and am in a production environment so I have to save to a network drive. And the issue is occurring regularly, forcing me to close and reopen Illustrator to be able to open these files.
Is there a real solution to this? It's driving me bonkers.
TIA

Is this related to iOS (iPads and iPhones)?
This is the iMovie iOS forum, so if you're in the wrong place I can get this question moved.
In iMovie iOS there is only one way to export video, and that is Quicktime H264.
You will need the latest version of Quicktime for Windows.

Saved files will not load Premiere Elements 8

I have a Sony Vaio laptop I purchased in 2011, running Windows 7. Preinstalled on the computer was Premiere Elements 8 so I have been editing a video I recorded using this software, December 31, 2014 was the last time I edited the video until yesterday. Yesterday I booted up my computer, started Adobe Premiere Elements 8, Opened my project, watched as the loading meter went to 100%, the loading meter went off and nothing...I was looking at the Premiere Elements 8 screen with nothing, just a grey background with all my headings at the top like I had not opened a project, I have tried this many times with the same results

Thanks for the update. Sorry the solution was not found yet.
I do not see an avenue from Adobe for a fresh download since this was a pre-install from a computer manufacturer. You might be able to get the serial number for this pre-install. If this version got registered at Adobe somehow, there might be a listing for it under "My Products" after you sign into Adobe web site (http://www.adobe.com) with your Adobe ID and Password. Type in My Products in the Search field and follow it to your products. If you see Adobe Premiere Elements 8.0 listed, click on that to reveal the serial number.
But still no replacement installation files.
Let us recap
1. Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and 8.0 Folder deleted
2. You have been through my check list in post numbered 3.
3. You have done general computer maintenance.
4. Can you get into Elements Organizer 9? If so, please go to Edit Menu/Preferences/AutoAnalzyer Options and disable everything under AutoAnalzyer Options.
Did that impact the issue in anyway?
5. We cannot uninstall reinstall or create a new User Account with Administrative Privileges since we do not have access to installation files and probably serial number.
Are we at a stage when System Restore to about December 31, 2014 becomes an option? Or rolling back the Windows Updates to December 32, 2014?
You have ruled out that the problem exists with or without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled. Is that correct?

.PDF files will not open without saving first

Since downloading Adobe Reader 11.0.07 on 5/20/14 .pdf files will not open without saving them first. I want .pdf files to open first BEFORE I save them (using Windows 7 and Firefox 30.0)

Doesn't make much sense to me. Methinks details are needed.

Saved Tiffs will not open in CS2 and generate a "Could not complete your request because of a program error".

this was supplied by Ann Shelbourne.
Saved Tiffs will not open in CS2 and generate a "Could not complete your request because of a program error".
These files will often open in Photoshop 7.0.1 or in CS1 but not in CS2.
The trouble may be caused by bad dates in the EXIF data and can originate from an incorrectly-programmed digital camera; or from a scan that was created after after Jan1 of this year (because of a known bug in some scanner software).
If someone runs into the "Could not complete your request because of a program error" problem, and does not have CS1, try opening the Tiff in TextEdit.
The EXIF data is right at the top. Check the EXIF data for bad creation dates and change any incorrect ones there.
Save and close; and then the file will probably open in CS2 without a murmur.

> If iPhoto causes problems why not open the images from the Finder?
I get the error if I open a file from within iPhoto using "OPen in external editor" and then alter it (or do not alter it) and try to save it over itself, or save it anywhere else.
I get the error if I do "Show file" in iPhoto to see the file in the Finder. Then, if I double-click and it opens in PS, and then alter it (or do not alter it) and try to save it over itself, or save it anywhere else.

Right.

After installation of latest Bridge and Photoshop version (2014.2.2) *.CR2 files will not be displayed correctly, neither in preview nor in Camera Raw dialog.

After installation of latest Bridge and Photoshop version (2014.2.2) *.CR2 files will not be displayed correctly anymore, neither in preview nor in Camera Raw dialogue.
Some pictures have white squares with blue and red diagonal stripes that cover almost the complete picture.
When opening those files I have the same problem in Camera Raw dailogue and even in Photoshop eventually.
I tried to open the same same pictures on another computer with the same version of Bridge and Photoshop but the problem remains the same.
It seems like the files itselves are still ok, because if you open an explorer window the previews of the pictures are all ok. And the pictures' sizes remain the same.
I tried to clear the cache in both programs but it didn't help.
Has anyone an idea????

First see if a reboot of your PC helps. If not,
Resets may be in order:
Photoshop: Press and hold Control - Shift - Alt immediately upon cold-starting Photoshop. If you get the keys down quickly enough - and you have to be VERY quick - it will prompt you to confirm deletion of your established preferences, which will lead to them all being set to defaults.
Bridge: Start Adobe Bridge and immediately press Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS) until the Reset Settings dialog box appears. Select all three options--Reset Preferences, Reset Standard Workspaces, and Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache--and then click OK.
Outdated graphics drivers can also cause display problems. Go to your GPU maker's website and be sure you have the latest drivers for your card model.

How to add a code so my drag and drop movie clip will not stick once it is dragged to final place o

Hello all and kglad, I have to use the old drag and drop code on my movie clips, but the problem is when I drag the movieclip to the area on my .swf file once i release it, it sticks to the hand mover.
I am encloseing the action script I am using could someone or kglad tell me what is missing from the code so that once it is released it will not stick, see code below
circle.onPress = function(){
startDrag(this);
circle.onRelease = function(){
stopDrag();
I am desparate for help on this must get project ready for this afternoon
Seal55

there's nothing wrong with that code but it would be better to use:
circle.onPress = function(){
this.startDrag();
circle.onRelease = function(){
this.stopDrag();
but that won't solve your problem. there must be something else going on like a depth issue. you may need to use swapDepths() to bring your circle under the mouse when releasing.

Freehand can't convert EPS files into editable vectors. I
usually run
EPS files through Illustrator and then into Frehand. If you
don't have
Illustrator you can convert the EPS into a PDF and that
Freehand will
sometimes convert into editable vectors (though it does
involve a lot
more clean up than going through Illustrator.)

A Pages file will not open due to index.xml not found, what is up with that?

I recently saved a file on Pages 5.5.2. on my IMac hard drive. Now I find that on attempting to open it the file will not open due to index.xml not found. Hoe do I correct this?

I have this issue, as well - although perhaps in a different content. When I try to open a file I created in the previous version of Pages, I will frequently (but not always), received the "index.xml not found" message. I am very concerned that I may lose access to some of these files. The old Pages icon is still on my dashboard, although I've downloaded the new Pages (that icon only appears when I open a new document). I thought I needed to upgrade the old documents to the new Pages, but this didn't work. Does anyone have any ideas? And, I'm not a techie - so you'll need to break it down for me.

Pdf files will not open upon downloading

I download a lot of pdf docs for work and want them to open automatically upon download so I can screen them. Since upgrading to Safari 5.1, when I download files (which has gotten much more cumbersome) they do not automatically open upon download. Yes, I DO have the "open safe files after downloading" option checked in Preferences. Any other thoughts? A solution would be most helpful. (If anyone has a solution to how I can automatically download files as easily as in prior versions, that would be greatly appreciated also.)

Some Canon CR2 RAW Files Will Not Open In Elements 8

I use a Canon 7D DSLR. Up until 30 minutes ago I never had a problem opening Canon CR2 RAW files in Photoshop Elements 8.
Some files still open others do not. I can think of only one thing. I was shooting a large number of frames and reduced the RAW Image size down from RAW Large Only to RAW Medium with Small Jpeg to give me more room on the Compact Flash Card.
The Large RAW only CR2 files open fine in PSE 8, the Jpegs open fine, but the smaller sized CR2 files will not open and I get a wrong file type message in PSE8.
Any ideas why this would happen? I suspect it is a function of the camera setting, but all RAW files download as CR2 files.
I appreciate any guidance in this matter. Needless to say I am resetting my camera back to Large RAW files only.

ACR 5.x only supported full-sized 7D RAWs, but ACR 6.x supports 7D mRAW and sRAW, so just update to the latest version of the plugin, following the PSE-specific instructions:
http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
sRAW and mRAW files are not RAWs because the camera has already demosaicked them to RGB and encoded them as lossless JPG.
Here is technical information on the reduce-sized RAWs:

When I try to email a photo as an attachment the iphoto file will not load

When I try to email a photo as an attachment the file will not load?

Open iPhoto, and then go to Preferences (under iPhoto in the menu bar). Check these two things:
1. Under the "General" tab, make sure you have set "Email photos using" to "iPhoto".
2. Under the "Accounts" tab, be sure your email account information is set correctly.

Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 (assumed 64 bit).
First..
1. Have you updated from 13 to the 13.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. If not, please do so.
2. Do the problems exist if you disable the antivirus and firewall(s)?
3. Are you running the program as Administrator? Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer?
4. Have you refreshed the Online Services using Premiere Elements Editor Edit Menu/Preferences/Web Sharing?
5. Have you updated the Adobe Application Manager?
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773
6.Is your video card/graphics card driver version up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
7. Lots more we could go through such as deleting the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if necessary, the whole
13.0 Folder in which it exists.
But, I think that you have enough things going on here to warrant an uninstall, free ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) and then reinstall with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.

If the problems persist after all that then we will adjust to additional troubleshooting maneuvers.
Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

I have installed pse 9 however the organizer will not launch, getting error 1310.

I HAVE INSTALLED PSE 9 HOWEVER THE ORGANIZER WILL NOT LAUNCH. I CAN USE THE EDITING FEATURE HOWEVER THE ORGANIZER WILL NOT WORK I GET AN ERROR 1310. i HAVE SPENT OVER 12 HOURS WITH ADOBE REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND THEY ARE SO FREAKN ANNOYING AND USELESS. CAN SOMEONE HELP

What all Adobe applications are installed on your machine?
Try launching the Editor from its installation location:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 8.0\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe
Does it launch fine from there?
If yes, then as a workaround, you can simply create a shortcut of this .exe on desktop by right click and choosing the option of Send To -> Desktop (create shortcut).
