Tiff files suddenly don't open in preview and powerpoint

All of a sudden my tiff files that still could be previewed two weeks ago, before an update of Lion, won't open anymore in preview and powerpoint. The files are not corrupted, since photoshop opens them normally. Anything know about a bug in latest lion version? Any suggestions to solve this?

Same issue. Can not use DVD studio pro with imported subtitles anymore (TIF Files). Anyone found a workaround?

Is anyone having this same issue?
Is there a quick and easy method to convert to CS4.
I have 4000 ads, 3,000 are from freelancers that are CS3 or CS2.

Select a couple of .ai files and Get Info on the files. Go to the Open with line and set it to Adobe Illustrator. When it ask if you want it to do the same for this file type answer yes. The OS is probably seeing the file as a PDF and Preview by default is set to open PDFs.

My Mac is opening my doc in preview instead of Adobe. I loaded the latest version. It still opens in preview and I get a blank page even though the doc is there. How do I handle this?

How do I open a doc in adobe instead of preview? Three Imac people in a group all having the same problem. I was told to download the latest Adobe, which I did. I still cant view the document even though I downloaded it to read it. It keeps opening in Preview and shows up blank. Help!

Right click on the document and select Open with-Adobe Acrobat. Or right click on the document and select get info, go to the open with drop down menu and select Acrobat. If you want all documents of that type to open with Acrobat check the box.

Edit smart object open in preview and not ai...

Hello,
Al working on a layout with CS4 master collection. In PS I pasted an ai as a smart object.... But now when I edit the smart object it opens in preview and not AI.
Any thoughts?
thanks

The matter has come up recently already, a forum search turns up:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2416222#2416222
So unless updating the OS helps the problem may be persistent.
A work-around may be to Export Contents, edit in Illustrator, save that and then Replace Contents back in Photoshop.

Attachment don't open en previewer is not working in Outlook 2013

When i get office attachments in an e-mail in outlook 2013 on a windows 8.1 pro.
The attachments don't open. And the previewer of outlook tels me that the content can not be previewed.
Any one any idea what can be the solution to open and preview these documents?

Hi,
Did you get any error message when you try to open attachments?
What's the file type of the attachments? Can you open and preview a Word or Excel attachment in Outlook? By default, Microsoft Outlook 2013 blocks potentially unsafe attachments (including .bat, .exe, .vbs, and .js files) that can contain
viruses.
In addition, please try to clean out the Temporary Outlook Files folder to check if it helps. See:
http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/securetemp.htm
Please let me know the result.

Photoshop CS4, Saved a Tiff file now won't open correctly

I saved a file as a .tif and it saved as normal then I shut down Photoshop and then the PC. The next day when I try to open the file it doesn't open correctly it opens but the right hand side of the photo is on the left and the left hand side of the image is now on the right, its like its been cut in half and put pack the wrong way.
It also didn't open with the layers only as a locked background. When I view the file in the icon it looks fine until I open it.
Help!

Laura, I'd guess this is not promising for you. TIFF files tend to be large, so I am wondering if you might have closed Photosho and the PC before it had finished saving? Do you remember the pixel size of the original image, and what is the file size in Mb? I am not sure how Photoshop treats TIFF images, depite them owning the file format after buying it from Aldus a few years ago, but it sounds like it was saved as a series of tiles, and the information about the order of those tiles is corrupted. You might be able to Google TIF file recovery program, but it is unlikely you'll get the full file back with all the information saved with it.
If you don't get a better answer, keep a weather out for when Chris Cox is posting, and bump this thread.
Good luck

File suddenly "cannot be opened" after no changes

Hi
I made this file about two weeks ago, and when I went to go look at it today, it just said "file cannot be opened" without any other information.
I sent to a friend via Dropbox (the file had a bunch of pictures in it) after I made it and all was well,
But she just emailed saying she cannot open it because it says she dose not have the newest pages.
I thought I would just convert the file to Word and then put it through Dropbox, but when I tried to click on it that error message came up.
I am 90% I have the newest update
I can't seem to access file anywhere now. I cannot even download it again from Dropbox. I have made no adjustments since the last time I sent it.
Is there anyway I can figure out how to get that file again? It's pretty important and I have spent a lot of time on it!
I would really appreciate any help!
Thank you

I went back and re-read your original post. I want to assume that you created this document in Pages v5+, but not assuming anything, is there a chance that you could have created it in Pages ’08. That certainly would generate a terse, unable to open dialog. Since your friend could not open it in Pages ’09, I suspect that it is a v5 vintage document, possibly created with a version of Pages v5 before the v5.2 update.
I have a couple of Pages v5.2 authored documents that sit on my Desktop. They each get opened at least twice daily. Sometimes, Pages v5.2 refuses to open one or the other. It might refuse 2 -3 times, and on the next try, opens normally. Pages v5+ is not Apple's finest effort.
There are possibilities:
Try pressing the shift key as you try to open your document.
If your friend still has the document you e-mailed her, have her send it back to you. See if you can open it.
Can you open the document with Preview, or Quick Look (click to select, then space bar)?
Do you have this document on a Time Machine backup?
Otherwise, thanks to Apple's penchant for proprietary, cryptic document architecture, nothing on earth can resurrect the content.

Opening files tiff files from desktop always open with Camera Raw with Photoshop 2014

Why do my desktop tiff files which in the previous version of PS CC, opened directly into Photoshop (File>Open), but with PS 2014 always open into Camera Raw first? Is there a setting/preference that needs to be changed?

Preferences - Camera Raw...
Under JPEG and TIFF handling, change to "Disable TIFF support" to have images open straight into Photoshop.
Edit: R_Kelly, you beat me to it.

.PSD files suddenly won't open

CS3 Extended, on Vista Ultimate,
Was working fine, then one day went to edit a file and got a message saying could not open due to program error.
I have reset preferences and turned version cue off, but still nothing works.
I have previewed the "flattened" image in brava, and in the open console of adobe, so i can see the file is there.
I have reinstalled adobe, but still nothing.
I have tried saving new images and opening them, but they will not!
HELP!!!!!! this has put a project on hold!

> I made another user-account, and the you CAN open your files.
But this is just a way, not a solution.
It is a diagnosis. It means the preferences in the original account are corrupted. (This happens.)
In the original account reset your preferences as described in the FAQ.
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.ef4a07f/1
You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.

Quicktime files suddenly won't open

Hi, I'm running OS 10.8.5. Recently updated some codecs and various other updates for my OS--the most recent updates. Now my videos will not open, nor will jpg's open in Preview! (?) No error messages, just won't open. I am a video artist, and have various file types--it won't open any .mov, .mp4, or any others. All do open in VLC, so it's not the vids. I've been running QT 10.2 with no problem till now. Some weirdness: I noticed that when I updated iTunes (which may have nothing to do w/ this), it updated to the Yosemite version (12.0.1.26), though my OS is Mountain Lion. Help?

Unfortunately, the latest version of QuickTime does not have the ability to export using third-party plug-ins, however Apple has made QuickTime 7 available to install alongside QuickTime X. You can install it from the Snow Leopard install disk or by running a Quartz (*.qtz) file.
QuickTime 7 will install to your Applications/Utilities folder.

Captivate file suddenly unable to record/import/copy and paste - shuts down with error message.

Hi
I have a project with lots of recording and I am now unable to do any of the following. Suddenly when I try to:
add a new recording slide
import a recording slide from another file (one by one)
copy and paste a recording slide from another file
Captivate freezes and shuts down because it incorporated an error. Then it tells me that another instance of captivate is recording and to shut it down when I re-open it and try to record again. (there isn't another open)
I have tried:
opening it and renaming it and shrinking the file size, but if I need to do one more recording it freezes on the new file.
opening a new file and recording. this works, but the problem is that I cannot import or paste the other slides from the original file into the new file to make it complete. I also cannot import this new recording into my original file to make it complete.
opening the backup and trying to import or record.
saving it under a new name and trying to import or record.
Any sugestions?

Metro Apps don't open on Local and Domain account. Works on Microsoft Live account. Windows 8.1 Pro

This is Happening on Three different computers.
All computers are Windows 8.1 Pro. This is a clean install.
When the computer is initially setup, I first sign on with my Windows Live ID and everything seems to work fine there.
After Joining the computer to the domain, none of the Metro UI apps will open, they open briefly and close.
Added a local account and found that it also does not work there.
Steps I have tried to resolve this:
Modified owner and permissions on registry Key: HKCR\AppID\{3EB3C877-1F16-487C-9050-104DBCD66683}
Changed owner to Local Administrator and gave full controll to Local Admin and Domain user account.
Ran DCOMCNFG and under Computers ->My Computer-> WinInetCacheServer Properties I went to the IDENTITY TAB and changed
it to the Interactive User.
That did not help.
Ran this command: "powershell
-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.xml" from elevated command prompt and also did not help.
I tried downloading the App troubleshooter but it would not run.
I also tried "wsreset.exe" and got an error saying: " Windows cannot find 'ms-windows-storePurgeCaches'. Make sure you typed the name
correctly, and then try again"
When Trying to open the app and it fails I get this error under Applications in Event Viewer:
"Activation of app winstore_cw5n1h2txyewy!Windows.Store failed with error: This app does not support the contract specified or is not installed. See the Microsoft-Windows-TWinUI/Operational log for additional information."
Anyone know how to resolve this.
We are looking to implement Windows 8.1 Pro to our clients pretty soon and need to get this resolved asap.
Thanks

Hi,
Did you mean that this problem only after you join the computer to the domain? if so, you may need to check whether you domain controller would install any program to your system. or you can contact domain adminstrator for further assistance.
In addition, run the following in a Command Window (CMD) to re-register the Store App:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.XML

Hyperlinks from my MSWord files suddenly don't work because "/FirefoxHTML\Shell\Open\Command" has somehow been added to the end of each URL.

When I click to open the hyperlink in my Word file, the message I get in Firefox is "The requested URL /submissions.htmlFirefoxHTML\Shell\Open\Command was not found on this server." When I delete that portion of the URL, the website opens fine. What can I do to make the hyperlinks work properly?

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it, but it didn't work. The link information is written correctly on the MSWord page. But when I click on it and the Firefox tab opens, the page can't be found because "FirefoxHTML\Shell\Open\Command" has been added to the end of each URL. Might it help if I reset Firefox?
