"THIS FILE COULD NOT BE OPENED" Msg in new 1.1 install

Hi-
I just downloaded the 1.1 update. And even though I can SEE all the pics in my library, I get that message at the top of everyone of them? I've only had it a few minutes now but what's up with that?

Bridge has taken on a bit of the LR look and feel:

There are a number of other apps (from other companies) that have also changed to be remarkably similar to Lightroom, but as we say only Lightroom provides the authentic Phil Clevenger experience (our UI designer):

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I guess.
> Are there any plans to do an archiving thing?
I can't speak to specific schedules or priorities, but as a part of the problem of managing a photographic workflow, I think archiving eventually needs to be something that Lightroom helps users manage more effectively.

S4BB Audiobook won't work - this file could not be opened check that you have the correct permissions and try again

I bought the french audiobook J'accuse from S4BB and it simply doesn't work. I sought help from Blackberry and got the message that BB doesn't support 3rd party apps. I contacted S4BB, who by the way says they have a warranty on their apps, and got the email back that "for the issues and refund you would need to contact BlackBerry as the only way you can download to the playbook is through App World we do not have access to their system."
I have deleted the app and re-installed, uninstalled and re-installed, searched permissions (not listed there), and it simply does not work. It says "this file could not be opened check that you have the correct permissions and try again".
I put a warning comment on blackberry app world that the app doesn't work and that support is hard to get, and Blackberry has removed both the comment and the very low rating I have this. I found this to be the most disturbing part.
Is there anything I can do to either get this app to work, or get a refund on this app?
Also, why was this comment and rating deleted - this seems to be contrary to the nature of comment sections on apps and does not do a service to your customers who may download this app which doesn't work?

Try right clicking on the installer and select run as administrator.

"Could not complete the Video Frames to Layers command because the movie file could not be opened."

I'm using Photoshop CS5 extended.
I've been using that to make gifs. It was fine when I import video frams into layers with the video formats of .mov or .avi. But After I installed OSX 10.6.8, this message comes up everytime I want to import videos: "Could not complete the Video Frames to Layers command because the movie file could not be opened."
So I installed my old OS back which is 10.6.3 but the problem is still there.
May I know what to do to solve this problem because all along I've been fine with making gifs and importing videos until now.
Please help, thank you.

The computer deities may be trying to say something to you. GIF is not a video format.
Are you opening video with the same codec that was successfully opened before?

Could not complete the video frames to layers command because the file could not be opened

I recently learned to make gif images using KMPlayer and my Photoshop CS6, but today I hit a snag that I can't seem to get around. Normally I capture a scene from a show DVD I have in KMPlayer and then import the video frames into layers/frames in photoshop with no problem. Well today I went to do that, and captured the scene with what seemed like no problem (the small captured scene saved with no problem) but when I went to CS6 to import the video into layers, I got the error message "Could not complete the video frames to layers command because the file could not be opened". At first I thought it was the KMPlayer saving the files wrong, so I retried and got the same error message. Irestored the players settings back to a default and the file still wouldn't open in photoshop, and then I even tried uninstalling/reinstalling the player trying to get it to work, and then I thought it must be photoshop, because even scenes I had captured at an earlier day that worked perfectly fine when importing would not open.
What could possibly be causing this problem to occur. Should I uninstall/reinstall photoshop and see if that works, or am I doing something wrong?
The files I'm trying to import are AVIs as always, I even tried to capture scenes in other formats to no avail. What could be causing the problem?

I uninstalled an reinstalled photoshop totally and it didn't fix the problem either. I made a post on the KMPlayer's forum hoping for an answer but I haven't recieved one yet. I'm starting to think it's the kmplayer having a problem capturing, since I've started getting the error "could not import the file to layers because the file has no layers" sometimes in photoshop, but I'm still trying to work around in photoshop to see if the problem came from there.

Cs5 camera raw: "this file could not be created" problem

When I'm attempting to save raw files in any format (jpeg, dng, tiff, etc) to a different directory from where they're intially opened from I get "this file could not be created" error. It saves fine if goes to the same directory where the file has been opened from.
The problem started happening for no apparent reason. There have been no changes to the system (no new installs, etc), except for recent adobe updates, but I can't find any other users complaining about this problem. This happens on admin and all other accounts. Any suggestions on how to fix it would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
photoshop cs5 / win7 64-bit

Hm, perhaps a folder closer to the root than the folder you have selected has a permissions issue.
Is the folder you're trying to use rooted on the hard drive (i.e., does the path begin with a drive letter)?
Keep in mind that whether you are an Administrator or not, with Windows UAC enabled the app is normally not running as an Administrator. That can affect permissions. You might want to either try running the app via Run As Administrator or temporarily disable Windows UAC to see if this is an issue.
How are you starting Camera Raw? From within Photoshop or Bridge?
Also, do you have the latest Camera Raw update?

CV02N Error in Windows 7: This file could not be found!

After uploading a file to the DMS, we could usually double click the file name and the file will be opened automatically in WORD.
This was succeeded in Windows XP.
But in Windows 7 environment, after clicking the file name, the WORD is started, no file opened. It says: This file could not be found!.
Is there any solution about this issue? Thanks!
BTW, I have tried GUI 720. But the issue remained the same.

Now what? You've imported the photos, do whatever you want with them.
You should really consider reading or watching some basic tutorials about Lightroom, such as

System synchronization failed--Protocol Error: Handheld file could not be opened. (4004)

I have reviewed Palm Support Page and the forums and recognize this is an old story but the solutions offered haven't worked for me. I have had my Tungsten 2E for over a year and an earlier version before that. It has been working well for me until I had a problem (out of the blue) with the HotSync. I reinstalled the Palm software after checking cables, etc. I was able to relink and get updated info from my handheld to the desktop but with a few blips in DocstoGo where I had to delete documents and add them back to the desktop and resync with the handheld. All the info is on the handheld but see the log below to see the message "System synchronization failed". A suggestion by other users is to delete the "PmTraceDatabase" to file C:\Program Files\Palm\N\Backup\PmTraceDatabase.PDB but I cannot find the named file on my desktop program files for Palm.
Does anyone have an explanation other than "live with it" since I believe I'm getting all my info synced?

Photoshop not importing MOV doc- "The file could not be opened." error

Hello!
I have photoshop CC and I am trying to complete a video project. So far I have searched high and wide to figure out why my .mov doc is not opening on my timeline and gives me an error: "The file could not be opened". I took the video on my iPhone 5 and exported it to a mov file.
On the timeline I click on the movie icon next to the layer name, I click add media, click on my file, then I get the error.
I didn't see that anyone else on the forums have had this same error code so I was wondering if anyone knows what is going on with my system.
I have a brand new iMac... I don't see why I would have these issues.

Nope I havent touched the Documents folder.
Forgot to mention that I'm on Windows 7

Message in Develop "The File Could Not be Opened"

My photos are in an external 500 gig hard drive. I am using a new iMac. In Lightroom when I go to the develop module and select an image I get a message saying The File Could Not Be Opened. I can not do any editing. I can open photos from the hard drive in other programs and edit them but not in the Develop module of Lightroom. I have 1.2 version. I have had this happen before when for some reason the computer could not find the external hard drive. But it is finding it fine.

Identify missing files ("The file could not be opened")

Hello,
I purposely deleted photos outside of LR. The photos are still in the catalog. When I attempt to develop a photo in the catalog which I forgot was deleted outside of LR the message "The file could not be opened" appears after a short delay.
This raises the question of how to identify ALL photos in a collection where the source files have been deleted (or otherwise cannot be found) and to mark those items for deletion from the catalog, and subsequently delete them.
Basically I want to assure ONLY those photos that exist (on my drive) are in the catalog.
(I realize there are many instances where on wants to maintain items in a catalog that are archived on other media and not readily available, but that's not what I want here.)
I have LR 1.1 on WinXP Pro with ample memory and disk space.
Thanks in advance for all tips and pointers.

Did you try synchronize folders? Right click on the folder name and select. I haven't done this, but the help says it's supposed to deal with missing files as well as added files.

"The file could not be opened"

Allright, here comes The Learning Curve.... just downloaded the trial version (CD on order)after using beta 4.1 for awhile. Though I removed the beta version via "add/remove programs", LR 1.0 automatically repopulated the previous images, and now, as I try to use the Develop module, a number of those images come tagged with an edit across the top "The file could not be opened", which inactivates the Develop tools.
This also happened with some of the images that were newly imported into LR 1.0. Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong?

You have to repoint LR to where you moved them. Next time move them in LR, not in Explorer. They probably show a ? on the Grid thumnbail cell. Click it for one and navigate to show Lr where it is and LR should find the others.

Handheld file could not be opened on sync

After reading Pm Trace Database Error I was able to download fileZ and fix this problem with this file but I have two more files with the same error, (4004) handheld file could not be opened, syncerr_file_not_open. They are multimail messages and midataidcache. I could find multiimail using filez but not midataidcache. I found midataidcache in a backup folder and put it back on the handheld. I am not that "great" at this but will try and fix this with your help. Thank you!

You installed wireless sync. Go to wireless sync then tap on settings. Then go to connections then go to advanced and check enable other sync apps.
