Trouble Opening CS6 Files

We upgraded from CS5.5 to CS 6. Whenever we click on a file to open, it asks to "Open With." The desired program is not an option, so we browse to locate it. Nevertheless, the file still can not be opened with the right program. To open it, I have to open from within the program itself.
Has anyone else experienced this issue and established a solution? Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Thanks so much for your reply.
All CS6 programs are giving us problems (ID, PS and Illustrator).
I'm unclear what to do to "fix them in your operating system." Can you clarify for me if you have a moment?
Thanks!

Having Trouble Opening TIFF Files

I'm having trouble opening TIFF files into Camera Raw. I have checked all my settings in Adobe Bridge and everything seems to be saying that TIFF files should open in Camera Raw when I click on then int and then into photoshop when finished editing in camera raw.
I'm trying to open 32 bit HDR images saved as a TIFF file into Camera Raw, and there seems to be nothing I can do to get them there. I have tried everything I can think of. When I right click on it (cmd click I'm on a mac) the option to open in camera Raw isn't there. I have tried clicking and dragging the image into Photoshop to try and force it maybe to open into Camera Raw, and I have opened photoshop and tried opeing it up from mini Bridge. In mini bridge I have the option to open the image into Camera Raw when I click this nothing happens.
I'm not sure what else to try I'm on CS6 and Camera Raw 7.0 .

Alright I'll try that thanks!

It might be that you need to update camera raw to version 8.3 by going to Help>Updates from within photoshop or bridge.
(i don't remember exactly in which version of acr that was added, but probably after version 7.0)

Trouble opening cs6 v17 from cs6 v16.2.1 (illustrator)

Trouble opening cs6 v17 from cs6 v16.2.1 (illustrator). Tells me that the document was v=created by a newer version and of course flattesn and groups EVERYTHING. Should I have been notified of a software update?

Ask in the AI forum and tell people what features you actually used in your artwork, what fonts, what system you are on etc.. Flattening always has a specific cause, it's not per se a file compatibility problem.

Trouble opening pdf files on version 9.4...

Hi, I recently updated (10/7/10) my Adobe from 9.34 to 9.4 and now I'm having trouble opening my files that were working fine with 9.34.. I read the other post but the problem still seems to occur for my mac..the error message I am getting is..
Adobe Reader could not open 'maher39767_0324639767_02.11_chapter11.spdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
I reinstalled Adobe and I'm still getting the problem...
Please help.

Does this happen with any pdf or this particular pdf ? If it happens with this pdf only then may be the pdf is not properly downloaded or may be damaged.

I'm having trouble opening pdf files for weeks now. Help please.

Hi,
Do you have Adobe Reader installed on your device? You can check it under Settings-->Apps. If Adobe Reader is installed on your device and still the pdfs open in some other app, then you might have chosen that app to be the default app for always opening pdfs. You can clear the defaults for that application. Just go to Settings-->App--->Polaris(or any other app where the files open)--->Clear Defaults. Next time you try to open a pdf, you will be presented with the options again. Hope this helps. Please let us know if you still face some issues.
Thanks.

I am using CS4. Can I open CS6 files? I am receiving "plug-ins not available on your system" messages and I'd like to open anyway but clicking on OK doesn't work.

I am using CS4. Can I open CS6 files? I am receiving "plug-ins not available on your system" messages and I'd like to open anyway but clicking on OK doesn't work.

InDesign CS4 can open .indd, .indt and .inx files from earlier versions, but not from later. It should, however, be able to open .idml files saved or exported from newer versions, with the understanding that unsupported features will be lost, text will probably reflow due to differences in texts engines between versions, and that the greater the gap between versions the more likely there are to be noticeable differences from the original. You will need to be sure CS4 is at version 7.0.6 to read the .idml.

Having Trouble Opening .EPS File

I am trying to open a .eps file in Illustrator CS3. As it is trying to open the progress bar for Parsing EPS format appears. Once the bar reaches the end, an error message shows up saying operation cannot complete because of an unknown error. Can anyone please tell me why this is happening? Even tried opening it up in Photoshop and paring error message appeared. I am using a PC on windows Vista. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Scott,
I received the emailed file in zip. Tried opening it with illustrator and the same problem happened again. Any reason why it may still not be opening up? Do you recommend maybe reinstalling illustrator. This problem never happened before. Thanks

Where did the file come from?
Was it emailed to you?
Email servers often corrupt eps files. It's best to have the person zip the file before sending it.

Trouble opening acrobate files with reader 10.1.7.

I have trouble opening acrobate files with reader 10.1.7. When I click on the file to open it with adobe reader x, nothing happens. If I click on Adobe Reader X icon, a message comes up: preparing to install. After that, I can open a PDF, but only until the next reboot.

Something went amiss during the install. Windows keeps trying to finish the incomplete install every time Reader opens.
Use the Adobe Cleaner to completely remove Reader.
Download the offline installer and reinstall without a download manager

Error message when opening CS6 files in earlier versions

PSCS6 with 12.0.4 update. Mac OSX 10.8.2 16GB 1333 Mhz DDR3 543 GB Available
I've recently become aware that other people are getting an error message when opening many of my my psd files if they are on earlier versions of PS and also on PSE, (including the latest version). The message is:
This document contains unknown data which will be discarded to keep layers editable. To preserve the original appearance instead, choose flatten to load composite data as a flattened image.
Three options follow: Flatten Cancel Keep Layers
When 'keep layers' is selected the file opens as normal. However, people with much earlier version (CS version 8) don't get the option to keep layers, and the layers are flattened when the document is opened.
I still have CS5 on my mac, and I find that if I take my finished file into CS5 and save it there, the customer does not get the message above, and the file behaves as it should. Those on very early version of PS can also open the files without any issues.
I've been using CS6 since it was released and have had to delve through all my files and save them in CS5. Not every file is affected and I've been unable to find a common thread.
Hoping someone can throw some light on this.

This similar to the message one should get in an older version of photoshop such as photoshop 7.
If one presses ok instead of read composite that might preserve the layers with the original look.
But sometimes if a layer blending mode or some other feature is used an earlier versions of photoshop doesn't have, reading the composite is the only way to preserve the look of the image.
You said your using shape layers?
If they are shape layers you didn't use a stroke from the tool options bar?
Can you post an example of the image with the layers panel visible that you get that message with?
I guess your using photoshop cs6 with the 13.01 update?

Cannot open cs6 files in cc

Hello,
I recently subscribed to CC after completeing a project on the trial version. However since purchasing CC I have been unable to open any of the CS6 files I had downloaded (I could open them whilst on the trial period). Yesterday I just kept receiving the error message " Cannot open the file **** Adobe Indesign may not support the file format, a plug in that supports the file format may be missing or the file may be open in another application" Today I cannot even click to open any of the files, they are in a faded typeset in the documnents or downloads folders. I can open any indesign files I have created from scratch though? So it seems it is just the files originally created in CS6 that are affected. I am working on a macbook, if that makes any difference.
Many Thanks for your help.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for your help. I am working on the 9.2 version Willi.
I am unable to open the downloaded cs6 files on their own, even from the file menu, as the error message appears, but today they are no longer in faded type in the folder, and I am able to click on them and drop into a new indesign file and resave.
So thank you for your help.

Need to open CS6 file in CS4

I have a very simple one page file with text that was made with CS6, when I try to open it in CS4 I get a prompt telling me to either upgrade my plugins (what?) or upgrade my version. Well, since the latter is out of the question I want to upgrade the plugins that the error message is referring to. But what is that? Where do I do it? I was kinda surprised cause its a simple straight forward one page doc with text on it, that's it! How many plugins can be used to create that? My feel is that it's just another way of forcing people to buy new Adobe software.
Ps: Had a browse on simmilar topics here on this forum and some suggest to save the file again in a different format, but that's kinda impossible when I can't open it. How does one "re-save" an indd file?

Was not able to edit my post so I'm adding it here. I found this on the Adobe site:
"Make sure that the version of InDesign used to open the IDML or INX file has all available updates installed. Otherwise, InDesign returns an error about missing plug-ins when you try to open the file." But I didn't find any way to work with updates, what kind if "available updates" are they referring to? I went to Help--> Updates in InDesign and I received "There are no updates at this time." That's a little weird tough cause I've never searched for any updates since I bought CS4 when it was released.
