have tried alot of things ..like changing its extension.. renaming etc but nothing works…

What has happened to the card? was it erased, or is it just a bad card.

Whenever I have run into the problem you described, I open them with "irfanview" with all the plugins and addons loaded. Everything is available FREE at: http://www.irfanview.com/
It seems to be able to open them when all else fails.. Once they are open I re-save as .JPG close and open in "Photoshop". The "Batch Conversion/Rename" works well also.

I’ve found ThumbsPlus can sometimes open damaged jpegs when Photoshop can’t. <http://www.cerious.com/download.shtml>
