Hello!
"Couldn’t complete your request because of a problem parsing the jpeg data" pops up whenever I try opening one of my very many jpgs(ca. 40 MB). I work on CS1 and up to now never had a problem with this-it just sort of started two days ago… I can open the files in Image-Ready then have to save them as PSDs (image-ready does not give me another option) which I then reopen in Photoshop to save them again as jpgs with the preview-box unticked.(fix suggested somewhere else-it seems to work). HOWEVER: I would rather not have to do this with all my work. (and I do need to work with jpegs although its a lossy format)
Any ideas what might have happened to my Photoshop? Any Ideas how to fix this? Greetings, Jo.

See the FAQs about trashing/resetting Preferences.

PS: Are you sure they are jpegs? I find it very hard to believe that ImageReady can’t save them as jpg. Do they have layers or transparency? If they do they are not jpegs.

Thanks for the tip with the preferences, will try it out and report.

PS: I found it even harder to believe than you…and it made me a lot more peed off too.

It worked! Hooray! Thank you very much! 🙂

Ps: Image Ready still only wants to save the jpegs from Photoshop as a jpeg if i use "save optimized as". under the normal "save as" there’s still only psd available. Maybe thats normal? I dont really use imageready much…
