Cannot open a file CS to CS4 after computer Crash

Can anyone offer any help.

When the graphics card broke on the motherboard - I have now removed the hard drive and in a cradle attached to a new computer, I was using my computer with my open, indesign CS files.

The problem is I can't open the files on my new comp on CS4 - it says that "the file is already opened by another user or an application, the file can be stored on a network server and cannot be used until the user closes."

I made sure all the files on the old drive are available via the Security tab of the new machine - I have also ensured that each individual record is able to be used by the new model.

It seems that the file is in use and I do not know how to solve. I found references to the fact that the file may be locked in the file preference but I seem unable to find a satisfactory way (if it's actually the problem)

It's probably hard as the incident happened on the other don't drive on the primary drive where the software CS4

Can anyone offer advice?

Thank you very much

If you click on my name, you will go to my profile and you can send me a private Message. I'll send you the mode of sending the files for me and I'll try it here, but I don't have a lot of optimism. A failure of machine with open files is pretty serious.

If nothing else, you should learn about backing up your files from there. I use an external hard drive and Acronis image (thought that there are other programs that will work too) to make an image of my hard drive to data every night. If there is a disaster I never lose work more than a day of. I also have my system disk image, where I keep the OS and programs, but less often because it doesn't change as often. Also, I used once or twice, to this image to recover from hard drive crashes in a matter of an hour or two instead of the day it would take to reinstall.

  • Cannot open the file Ai CC15 recorded yesterday, Illustrator crashes on attempt

    Hello

    I can't open the file which worked great yesterday in Illustrator CC 2015. All other files will open very well, except for this one. It is a map with several text file and vector shape layers, other than to have a lot of text has nothing unusual in it - no 3rd party plugins, exotic fonts or styles of any kind.

    I could open in Adobe Acrobat and register again with the extension .pdf, but Illustrator opens either this version.

    When I try to open one of the files, Illustrator crashes:

    Not really sure what caused the file corrupted, I closed and reopened several times yesterday and he didn't give me any grief.

  • Cannot open .cr2 files in Bridge CS4 v.3

    Past review for hours; can not find the correct answer...

    I just bought a Canon 60 d, where .cr2 raw files. They open in Bridge, which has already opened my Canon 10 D raw files .crw. What should I do to make the .cr2 files?

    I prefer not to install Digital Photo Professional 3.10 Cannon (supplied with the camera) if I can find a solution/upgrade within Bridge/EP.

    Details:

    MacBook OS X 10.5.8

    Bridge CS4, completely updated to v. 3 with Camera Raw 5.7 v. (which are the latest available updates, I think, just updated today).

    Photoshop Elements 8

    Thanks in advance.

    Your CR2 files the 60 d are not supported for your version of ACR.

    Each provider uses different kind of Raw and sadly enough they also use another type of crude oil for every new camera produces. Adobe offers a free upgrade for the cameras, about 3 or 4 times a year. In the past, that they could not get new types of Raw earlier while consumers so often that meant you had to wait a long time before the ability to ACR was there. Today, they have a better relationship and often get pre model of production for the updates are already there when new cameras are entering the market.

    However being a commercial company, they don't offer upgrades for others then the latest versions of Photoshop and ACR. Currently, CS6 and CC are both get updates but the previous version don't are not updated any longer.

    Here is a list of the supported devices and the necessary minimum ACR versions for cameras:

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Creative-Suite/KB/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html

    Another option is available, and it is the free Adobe DNG converter. The latest version is here:

    http://www.Adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5596

    Or if the link does not do a search on Adobe.com. After the files have been converted to DNG, you will be able to use them in your version of ACR.

  • Click on the link-get "Windows cannot open the file" select a program?

    After clicking on link get "Windows cannot open this file" have to manually "selecta program programs installed" Firefox appears as a choice and I double-click. How can I solve this problem / eliminate these extra steps
    ? Thank you Joe
    I am running Windows XP, MS office Outlook 2007

    Is it a link in an e-mail message in Outlook? This problem arises from time to time.

    While Firefox can usually set himself as the proper application to open the URL, you click in other programs, settings are sometimes blur or do not take. This article has tips to solve this problem: setting Firefox as the default browser does not work - what to do. Anything there help?

    If the problem persists, is there something special about how you start Firefox? For example, you have this launch in a security 'sandbox' or virtual machine? You have all the command-line options set to allow several simultaneous sessions of Firefox, or call the Profile Manager? If none of this sounds familiar to you, the answer is probably not.

  • I get a message saying "Windows cannot open the file...". »

    I had a lot of problems with infections, so I was running many scanning programs.

    After getting my computer almost completely cleaned, I ran the Super Anti-Spyware program.  We find 3 infections, which I'd delete (I don't have no way of knowing that I removed).

    Since then, whenever I try to open a program, or even Windows Update, etc., I get a message saying:

    "Windows cannot open the file.  To open this file, Windows needs to know what kind of program has created.  Windows can go online to search automatically, or you can manually select from a list of programs.

    When I go on the web, I get a lot of options, which are almost free scans that then charge for fixing.  I am also very scared that I can also get another infection from these sites.

    I hope someone can help me solve this problem.

    Yes, each method is a set of measures to try and then go ahead and try each one separate.

    2 method will reset the executable (.exe) extension that will allow you to open programs. It is not clear what exactly you are trying to open so that it can have no effect.

    Keep in mind that the damage caused by malware can be irreversible, in the case of relocations are necessary.

    Hi JRCLNSIN100,

     

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    We would like to get some more information from you to help solve your problem. You better, please answer the following questions.

    ·         What is the disk you use to reinstall?

    ·         Is this a recovery or reinstalling the disc you are using?

    ·         When exactly do you get this error message?

    ·         What is the edition of Windows Vista, you try to install?

    ·         How old is the drive that you are using?

    ·         How are you starting the installation process?

    After researching the error 0x8007000D code is essentially due to file corruption and a problem with the drive itself.

    First check if you have scratches or dust on the disc and clean the surface and try again.

    To check if the disk is wrong, you will need to copy the contents of the DVD to the hard drive and try to install using that.

    To perform a flat installation of Windows Vista, follow these steps.

    Note The hard disk must have at least 3 GB of free space on the disk for the Windows Vista installation files. The hard disk must have at least 15 GB of additional disk space to install Windows Vista. For more information about system requirements for Windows Vista, see the Microsoft Web site at the following address:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/products/windowsvista/editions/SystemRequirements.mspx

    1. Insert the Windows Vista installation disc.
    2. Start Windows Explorer.
    3. In Windows Explorer, click to select the drive for the Windows Vista installation disc.
    4. On the Edit menu, click select all.
    5. On the Edit menu, click copy.
    6. Click to select the hard disk you want to contain the flat installation files.
    7. On the file menu, point to new, click the folder, type Windows Vista Setupand then press ENTER.
    8. Double-click the Windows Vista Setup program, and then click Paste on the Edit menu.
    9. Double-click Setup.exe, and then follow the instructions that appear.

    Hello

    Method 1
    JSON is a java file. or JavaScript Object Notation, is an open standard based on text designed for the exchange of human readable data. It is derived from the JavaScript scripting language to represent associative arrays, and simple data structures called objects. Despite his relationship with JavaScript, it is independent of the language, with parsers available for many languages.

    If you want to open. You must have Java installed on your computer the JSON file. If you have java installed on the computer I suggest you to try the steps from the following link:

  • error LNK1181: cannot open input file "... \..." \.. \build\win\objR\PMRuntime.lib'

    I have create a new Plugin.

    But happen error LNK1181: cannot open input file "... \..." \.. \build\win\objR\PMRuntime.lib'

    Why?

    I looked at the project and have it fixed with success, but unfortunately I can't send that overall because of the way the project was sent initially. Most absolute paths are the paths used in the project file and that's your project needs changes to much space when focused on a new machine. I'll give you advice on how to solve your problem and how to improve the project is configured for better portability.

    How to solve your problem.

    1. Remove $(MODEL_PLUGIN_LINKLIST) from the list and it will work well for you. The wrong way is written in the sdk file attachments that are included in your file accessories
    2. After taking the first point, you will again have a binding error, to solve, it adds ASLSupport.lib to the additional dependencies in the section of the linker.

    How to set up a project in a more portable way

    1. You should avoid using absolute in several locations paths, because when you move the project to another machine, you will need to change the paths to all these places
    2. Even using relative paths does not solve the issue properly, because in this case you must place the project from a location on each computer so that it works correctly. This is the reason why it was not $(MODEL_PLUGIN_LINKLIST) for you. The Adobe sdk samples use relative paths, so move the project so that by using their configuration fails if the relativeness of the road is not maintained
    3. In order to be totally portable, we should make use of macros and define them in one place. So that when you move the project, change the paths in this single file solves everything. An example of this is how you set the id_sdk_dir macro in your file attachments.

    Hope these points help you to solve your problem and put in place the project in a better way.
