Unable to open RoboHtml project

I have received the following message trying open all of my
Help files today: "Open project was cancelled or the application
was unable to load database for [Project name and path]." I
followed the directions in the "RoboHelp X5 Instructions" Tech Note
for this issue but still can't open the files. In fact, I can't
even launch a new project any more. FYI- there are no other users
in any of these files and the last time I opened one was about
three weeks ago. At that time I had no problems.
What could be happening, and what can I do about it?
Thanks in advance for your help.

OK. I did have the Robohelp updates on my machine when the
problem occured that I initially described. However, I have now
uninstalled RoboHelp and all updates, then reinstalled the base
product plus the updates. Eureka! It now works as designed.
When I talked to a developer about this, he thought that
RoboHelp might have been looking at an older version of MS Access
for the .cpd file. I think that would coincide with your
recommendation to make sure that my login is used to install
updated versions of RoboHelp and MS Office products, rather than
the IT person's login. I am sure that sometime over the past month
the Office products or possibly security associated with them was
updated by IT.
Thank you again for all your help.

    Travel and detours have kept me from following up sooner. If the problem that you wrote about still persists.....
    Let us go back over that Adobe document regarding troubleshooting damaged projects.
    3. Delete the Application Preferences
    Where you able to follow that path and delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file at the end of the path? And, after you did, did the saved/closed programs still refuse to open? If you could not carry out this procedure, what were the limiting factors that kept you from do
    7. Test to see if individual media files are causing the problem.
    That is an important one. How far did you get into following the instructions given in the document? If you could not complete the test, what was the major block that prevented you from doing so?
    I want to make sure that we have gone through everything in that document and ruled all factors there in or out. If it was a matter of you not understanding the instructions, I am hoping that the above will channel you questions to me so that I can clarify anything that you did not understand in the Adobe document instructions.
    I do not recall if I asked previously. Even if you cannot open all your saved/closed projects, can you still open a new project and save/close it? Maybe even reopen it?
    Please review and consider.
    Thank you.

  • Unable to open X5 project

    The project I work on is created with RoboHelp X5. One of my
    clients is updating his own help for my project and uses RoboHelp6.
    Now the project he just sent back to me won't open in RoboHelp X5
    anymore. I always get error:
    "This project is from a newer version of the program. This
    project is no longer compatible with this version. Please make sure
    you have the newest version installed".
    However I cannot upgrade to RoboHelp6 since other clients are
    still using RoboHelp X5. Asking everyone to upgrade is not an
    option.
    I also tried opening the "hhp" file instead of the "xpj"
    file, but that also fails with the same error message. In addition
    I then get the message "Unable to create database. Check that the
    directory is not read-only."
    All the files are on the local disk of the PC (not on a
    network drive) and the folders are writable.
    Any suggestions would be welcome.

    Welcome to the forum.
    Option 1] Hop over to PayPal and send me an obscene amount of
    money! I'll come and fix it wherever you are.
    Option 2] Delete the CPD file before opening the project from
    the XPJ file. It will open and should be OK provided the client has
    not done anything RH6 specific, like use variables. There's more
    about this in the topic about Opening Projects on my site.
    Are you aware that you can run both X5 and RH6 on the same
    PC? You have to buy the full version of RH6, not the upgrade, but
    they work quite happily together.

  • Unable to open iMovie project?

    I made a simple iMovie 09 project and burned it to a DVD via iDVD.  
    Then, to save space on my HD, I moved the project to an external HD.
    Now I want to go back to the project to make some edits.   But when took it out of the external HD and placed it on my desktop, I am unable to open it in iMovie.   I've tried simply clicking on the project icon as well as doing File>Import>Movie.  I also tried clicking and dragging the movie icon from the desktop to iMovie with no luck.  iMovie just doesn't see to want to recognize it.
    Can someone help?   Thanks? 

    Hi
    There are so many things to this.
    A. Flash drive - I even don't know if they would ever work - very doubtful
    B. External hard disks - MUST be Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted -
    UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange works for most other things BUT NOT FOR VIDEO no matter if iMovie, iDVD or FinalCut is used.
    C. In the folder iMovie Projects - There are NO MOVIES - but text-documents related to the projects and this document points to the Raw material in iMovie Events folder and how it is supposed to be Played/Viewed in this particular project. e.g. play Clip A from 00:00:01:13 to 00:03:45:02 and so on. So there are no movies in the project folder.
    D. So if both iMovie Events and iMovie Projects folder are copied over to an external hard disk - Then the iMovie in the second Mac has no links to this and will not find it.
    SO to be able to work with one project on two Macs - all moving's of Events and Projects should be done within the iMovie Application - Not on DeskTop/Finder - do not alter or move any folder named
    • iMovie Events
    • iMovie Projects
    on DeskTop/Finder - as they can mess-up and be very hard to impossible to mend.

  • Unable to open IMovie Project in IDVD

    I have created a 40 minute movie in IMovie 08 (my first). I am unable to open the movie in IDVD 08 and Garage Band. The project name is visible in the media browser but is not available for selection.
    I have published the movie to the media browser and it still is not available to IDVD.
    I am new to apple computers and have been unable to get help with this problem.

    Here's two things to try:
    This frequently helps solve some problems. Search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.
    You'll need to reset some Preferences.

  • Unable to open PC projects on Mac

    after double checking both versions are latest and greatest, i'm unable to open CC 2014 Premiere Pro PC projects on a Mac.
    '...made on an incompatible version of Premiere.'
    PC - 8.2.0 (65) build, 2014.2 release.
    Mac - 8.0.1 (21) build 2014.0.1 release
    any thoughts? many thanks!

    Hi Nor_Cal,
    OK, I can see how you might have some trouble here. You should look to IT for guidance on installing updates for your enterprise licensed software.
    does that mean every time i want to update (something that's a feature in CC), i have to completely uninstall my suite and 'download' a new build from IT?
    No. Typically, your IT department will package application updates for you to install. You can request an update package from them when an update is released or when IT decides that the update should be installed on your computer.
    If you'd like to be proactive with your IT department, you can point them to Adobe updates for enterprise customers here: Creative Cloud for enterprise Updates | CCE Updates for IT Admins
    Hope that helps.
    Thanks,
    Kevin

  • Unable to open/edit project in project professional form PWA(project server 2010)

    i have been working perfectly and opening my projects with project professional from PWA
    All of a sudden,i get this error: no permission to read enterprise global file when trying to edit my projects in project professional from the PWA
    i have also tried opening the project from project professional directly and it says (you do not have sufficient permissions to  perform the requested action)
    please what is the cause of this issue and what can i do to resolve it?

    Hello kehinde,
    The cause of this problem is somebody changed something.
    To resolve, I would clear out the cache to see if that resolves anything.
    Then, I would reboot system and see if that resolves.
    If still no go, then I would look into security settings, and start doing some detective work.  I keep a version of project server in a separate instance, that is completely out of the box, so I can have a reference point for settings.
    If still not solution, then I would resave the global file settings.
    Cheers!

  • Unable to open MVC project in Visual Studio 2008

    I started working on an Asp.net MVC website using Visual Web Developer Express 2008 a while ago. Just recently, I managed to get my hands on a copy of Visual Studio 2008 Professional (through
    DreamSpark ). I installed the Service Pack, and also the MVC2 files for Visual Studio.
    However, now I can't open my project anymore. When I try to open the solution in Visual Studio, it tells me that the project type is not supported. Does this mean that I have to resort to using VWD Express again? Is there perhaps some way that I can edit
    the project file so that it will load and compile correctly?
    Note: I installed MVC2 through the Web Platform Installer, and it says that it installed successfully. However, I notice that MVC references in my unit-test project don't seem to be resolved either - is this perhaps because MVC2 isn't actually installed
    properly?

  • Unable to open saved projects in CS5.5

    Hello,
    Im using Premiere Pro CS5.5 and as of this moring when I try to open a saved project Premiere crashes with the error "sorry a serious error occurred adobe premiere and must close". I am able to create a new project which works fine (didnt try saving it and reopening it). I also found that when logging into that machine as a different user Im able to open saved projects.
    I dumped everything in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Premiere Pro\5.5 thinking maybe the preferences may have been corrupted but no luck.
    Any thoughts?

    We are having the same issue. We are using Garageband '09 version 5.1 on our new iMac 10.6.2. Each time we try to save or open an existing file we get this message "The document “My Song 3.band” could not be opened". This is starting to get really frustrating. Do you think with the new operating system we need iLife?
    Happy Holidays!

  • Unable to open portal project in workshop

    Hi,
    I am totally new to WLS92 and Eclipse. Here is my question. I created a portal project in Workshop using the wlp_getting_started.pdf guide. Later on I closed the portal project using Project->Close Project menu.
    Now when I start Workshop, it does not show me the portal project I had created and I am unable to find any menu link that says Open Project. There is one under Project menu but that remains disable all the time.
    How can I open the last portal project in Workshop and then work on that further.

  • Unable To Open .prel Project

    I'm running Premiere Elements 9.0.3 (PE9) on Windows 7. When I launch PE9, I get the "Welcome" window with the three options: "Organize", "New Project", and "Open Project". When I click on "Organize", I can see the ".avi" files that I’ve imported, and under the "Organize" tab, I can see my Video Projects (.prel files). However, when I click on "Open Project" on the "Welcome" window and then select any of the ".prel" files, none of these projects will open any longer. The small “Load Project” window is displayed and indicates that 100% of the project is loaded, but the PE9 window remains blank.  If I then attempt to open a second project from this PE9 window (File => Open Project...), then I get a pop-up window that contains the following error message: “Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premiere Elements to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project.” When I click “OK” on this pop-up window, the same pop-up window appears again. When I click “OK” on this second pop-up window, Premiere Elements crashes and all of the windows close. (Note: I could open all of my “.prel” projects a couple of weeks ago -- I have no idea what changed.)

    BobEZ
    First, there is no Premiere Elements 9.0.3 Update version of Premiere Elements 9. There is one for Photoshop Elements 9. So, I am assuming that the 9.0.3 was a typing error and that you meant to type 9.0.1 which is the required update for Premiere Elements 9.
    There is an Adobe document on damaged projects that you might want to check out.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-elements/kb/troubleshoot-damaged-projects-premiere-element s.html
    But the first thoughts that come to mind on a problem such as this
    a. Have you moved or deleted any of the source media that went into any of these projects?
    b. Can you still open a new project in Premiere Elements 9.0.1?
    c. Is your video card driver up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card? Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements, and are you running the program as Run As Administrator or from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
    d. Have you tried to delete the Premiere Elements 9.0.1 settings file (Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs) found in the path (for Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit)
    Local Disc C
    Users
    Owner
    AppData
    Roaming
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    9.0
    and in the 9.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work to solve the problem, then delete the whole 9.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exits. (Be aware that the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file (new) will be generated after you open Premiere Elements. Make sure that you are working with Folder Option Snow Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the whole path.
    Let us rule in or out the above considerations. And, if necessary, we will go into your computer environment, including optimization and the possibility of pile ups of preview files and conformed video and audio files. Are the Scratch Disks directed to a hard drive space with enough free space to accept them?/
    More later.
    Thanks.

  • My Final Cut Pro unexpectedly quits when I scroll near a certain project in my Project Library (and unable to open said project).

    I was working on a project last night and Final Cut Pro would unexptedly quit several times. I eventually got tired of it and decied to go home. Came back today and the problem continued. I turned my Macbook off and turned it back on, same problem. I moved some of my stuff off my Mac HD into my external hard drives, still the same problem. I ran Disk Utility on all my harddrives, used Preference Manager on Final Cut Pro; the problem continues. I'm able to open and work on all my other projects, but when I even scroll near the file I was working on last night, FCP decides to completely close.

    I hope it'll work for others.
    My version FCPX 10.1.4
    After a lot of research it appeared that some of my thumbnails were corrupted and made FCPX freezing while trying to display them.
    So here is my solution:
    - FCPX is closed
    - Go to your library storage
    - Explore your Library or just remove the .fcpbundle extension if you have chosen to display the extensions then you'll see that the whole library as a normal folder
    - Go to your project folder --> Render Files and move the whole Thumbnail Media folder to the trash
    - Don't forget to rename the library folder with the .fcpbundle extension if you have removed it previously
    - Launch FCPX again and it'll recreate the media thumbnails while opening your library
    Et voila

  • APE 9.0; Unable to open new project.

    I cannot open a new project in APE 9.0; If using the tab on the welcome page, I cannot enter a name; if using the file menu, I can enter a name, but the OK button is non-responsive. Any suggestions?

    WBH
    Is this a problem were "it worked before but does not now" or "it never worked before"?
    For now I am assuming Windows 7 or 8 64 bit, and my details will go to Premiere Elements running on that....
    Have you installed the Premiere Elements 9.0.1 Update for Premiere Elements 9? If not, first order of business.
    You can make the installation with Premiere Elements 9 closed and use the online download from Adobe to your computer:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4929
    Then right click the desktop icon for Premiere Elements 9, select Properties, and then click the Open File Location. That will take you to the Adobe Premiere Elements 9.exe file (file now taking you to the Welcome Screen). Right next to it is the Adobe Premiere Elements.exe file. Right click the Adobe Premiere Elements.exe file, select Send to and then "Desktop (create shortcut) and then close out of there. Open Premiere Elements 9, thereafter using this new desktop icon which is used to bypass the Welcome Screen and some processes.
    Then see if you can open a new project and set the project preset in the New Project dialog, opening from the new Desktop icon to bypass the Welcome and with the 9.0.1 Update installed. If you could have gotten into the opened project, you could have gotten to the update via Help Menu/Update.
    We could have you delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs File or do a complete and clean uninstall/reinstall, as well as work from details of your computer operating system etc., but let us start here. Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 was particularly notorious for display card error messages, so we might end up getting into video card driver updates and/or baddrivers.txt file deletion.
    But let us start here and then determine what next.
    Thanks.
