Suddenly getting "unsupported image fomat" on RAW files that have been working perfectly.  How do I fix it and can I get those images back?

I am suddenly getting "unsupported image file" for RAW images that have been working just fine.  How do I fix this and how do I get those images back?  Version 3.4.5, Canon 7D, everything up to date and no updates since files were loaded into Aperture.

Would it help to buy a separate external hard drive for Aperture?
That would be by far the best solution. And it would make the backup easier. You could include the "Aperture" drive in your Time Machine backup. With the original files stored on your Time Machine volume there is no way that Time Machine could back them up.
Use Disk Utility to format the new drive "MacOS X Extended (Journaled)".
Set the "Ignore Ownership on this Volume" flag. (select the drive in the Finder, use "File > Get Info ⌘I)
In the "Get Info" panel your drive should look like this:

    I have files that have been on my computer for over a year and I have used them several times and all of a sudden they wont open.  I received an error message saying they are improperly downloaded or came as an email attachement which is not the case.  Please advise

    They seem to be word files - they will open if I choose "open with" microsoft word, but if I double click they don't open they are appearing as PDF on my screen.  I even opened one and then tried to "save as" making sure I chose .doc and they still appear as PDF
    I just created a new document response.doc in word and when I saved to my desktop it appears as a PDF file and I absolutely did not create a PDF or save as PDF it was a simple word
    doc.
    The message says "Adobe reader could not open response.doc because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example attached in an email and not properly decoded)
    The reader version is I believe the most current, I always update when prompted.  OS is Windows 8

    If it is the same app for the iPod and the iPad (universal or iPod/iPhone app) and not a iPad only app, the only way is to restore the iPad from the backup of the iPod.  That will wipe out all the app data currently on the iPad though.
    If the iPad is an iPad only app, then there is no way.

  • Artifacts and corruption on Photoshop CC files that have been worked on a lot

    I'm having the problem below when working on a Photoshop file created with Adobe Photoshop CC. I have had this issue on 2 different machines and 2 versions of photoshop, working from my hard drive. This is what I get:
    As you can see it's totally messed up my photoshop file and when I export out (as a JPEG/PNG etc) it still has the artifacts. I have now had this with 2 different retina Macbook Pros running 2 versions of CC. I've never had this before and have used CS5 for years with no issues and I'm not using a network so I'm thinking it's something to do with CC. Here's when it usually occurs:
    - When I have been working on a file a lot, these are mocks for clients and it tends to be happening on the homepage (which has had the most iterations)
    - Seems to be connected to smart layers (but not exclusively), when I try and mask with a smart layer I'll get strange banding and some of the text will render with obscure colouring
    - It also affects the layers, text layers that cover small areas of the canvas are selectable from nowhere near and they obscure other layers
    - I can click into text layers and update the colour and sometimes that will fix them and they re-render normally
    - It seems to degrade the more I work on it, the first thing will be small lines, then the layers will obscure other layers (for no obvious reason when trying to select them) and then the colour banding will appear
    At the moment is causing me a bit of a headache and I can't see how to get this PSD back without recreating the entire design.
    Can someone please help....

    Seems strange that I would get the same problem on 2 different macs with the same results. Is there anyway of finding out if it is the ram/hd before splashing out on either fixing it or getting a new Mac? Also like I said I never had this problem with CS5, which I used on one of the macs before I upgraded. I've got a feeling if I take this problem to the Apple store they are probably going to say it's the software and not the hardware.

  • I do not get a readable or editable PDF file that has been converted to Microsoft Word.

    In the past I have been able to convert PDF files to MicroSoft Word, and Edit and Save the Documents. Now, the converted files are unreadable and uneditable. How do I correct this problem?

    Thanks for the email, Stacy!
    I don't have an old PDF file that I converted to MicroSoft Word, however the new file that I am trying to convert and edit is the same kind of file that I've converted and edited before; An Invoice from the same Company. Is there a possibility that a download, MicroSoft Compatibility Pack for the 2007 Office System, onto MicroSoft Windows XP Home Edition Version 2002 computer might be causing the problem? Should I download to (.doc) or (.docx)? Any help will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,

    Hi Joseph,
    I'd like to assist!
    Have you tried converting one of your old PDF's that have worked in the past to see if it still works?
    Are these files scanned to PDF files?
    You may want to try utilizing the OCR solution.
    Let me know if that works.
    Looking forward to hearing back from you!
    Kind regards, Stacy

  • I'm unable to open Safari.  I keep getting a alert security message Suspicious Activity Might Have been Detected. How can I fix this proplem?

    I'm unable to open Safari.  I keep getting a alert security message Suspicious Activity Might Have been Detected. How can I fix this problem?

    You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
    Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Step 1
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
    Step 2
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
    Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Deleteing files that have been downloaded by Software Update Service

    I have an XServe that is set to download the latest updates from Apple, and the the workstations pull the updates from the machine. I noticed the XServe was running out of space. I had a look and found that over 11GB of files are sitting in the following destination:
    Macintosh HD/usr/share/swupd/html
    These look like all the software updates that have been downloaded.
    How do I delete these files? If I had to just delete the files in this destination would it affect anything? I don't see anywhere in the software update service to delete the files it has downloaded.
    Also by looking at the machine, the System Drive is 80GB, and the Software updates are 11GB's. And I only have 2GB's left on the machine. I have made all the invisible files visible, but still cannot see where all the other data is sitting.
    I have used the WhatSize app and still cannot find the remainder files taking up all the space?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    What happens if you use a "offline browser" like HTTrack and
    open these
    files in DW?

    I have been working on a wedding slideshow for days and have over 3,000 pictures in albums on iPhoto.  It suddenly will not open without upgrading to Aperture and I can't find any of my photos!!!!  I need these photos, to complete the video, not to mention I don't want to lose them. I have had trouble ever since upgrading  to Maverick.

    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.

  • I cannot re-open files that have been saved in Numbers version09 - it states "You need a newer version of numbers to open this document". This is the latest version

    I cannot re-open files that have been saved in Numbers version09 - it states "You need a newer version of numbers to open this document". This is the latest version & also the one I have created/saved???

    Jules,
    You may delete Numbers 08 if you wish, but some folks like keeping it around. Close all your Numbers docs and Quit the Numbers app, and the other Numbers app if necessary.Then click the Numbers icon on your doc. Then select Numbers > About Numbers, and in the window that pops up, see which version it is. If the Dock icon started Numbers 08, you can cure that by dragging that icon off the Dock and letting it go in a puff of virtual smoke.
    Now, to put the Numbers 09 icon on the Dock, double-click one of those known Numbers 09 documents so that Numbers 09 starts up. Verify by checkig Numbers > about Numbers.
    Now click and hold the Numbers Dock icon and select the Option for Keep in Dock.

  • Is there any easier way to edit imovie files that have been exported as mov file then added to FCE 4?? As every move I make has to be rendered and takes forever??? Also my recording is going out of focus without me touching the camera, why has this happen

    Is there any easier way to edit imovie files that have been exported as mov file then added to FCE 4?? As every move I make has to be rendered and takes forever??? Also my recording is going out of focus without me touching the camera, why has this happened any idea what causes this??
    iMovie '08, Mac OS X (10.5.8), FCE 4

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

    Depends how they were transferred. If you used Migration Assistant, a new user was created. Look there in your documents folder. If you used Setup Assistant, look in your documents folder.

  • How do I access files that have been recovered (after a Mavericks problem) with the .cca file extension

    How do I access files that have been recovered (after a Mavericks problem) with the .cca file extension

    First, to access documents you must use an app designed for that specific Document type. So Pages will not be able to open PDFs. The Documents app by Readdle can handle PDFs though. In the latter case, you'd open the app, click the menu icon at its top left, and click Open to go to your iCloud Drive. With Pages, if you had files outside the main Pages folder, click + then iCloud and navigate to the file's location.

    Hi David,
    Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
    Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?
