Does anyone know what makes this error? I’m getting it in a few different instances. One being taking a patern and filling in a larger document, then saving as a jpeg. There’s no way around it. Even if you completely start over with a new document and re-fill it, the same error occurs. I also see this in some other occasions which I know have nothing to do with a "fill", but these are usually sent in from other people. The only way I can recreate it is with the "fill", but it doesn’t even happen all the time. I’ve also tried to remake the pattern entirely. Is there a way around this? Fill or no fill, just away around this error in general?
Here’s the whole error: Could not open "c:\file" because an unknown or invalid JPEG marker type is found.

that usually means a corrupt file. try opening it in a different application and resaving it (if there’s anything there to save). ps is pickier than most apps in finding this kind of stuff.
I have this problem constantly with Photoshop 7.0, where it can’t read any JPEG that was CREATED in Photoshop 7.0! What the? It can’t read it’s own file? Yup.
Well, something is different about your setup from everyone else — and other than what I already suggested, I don’t know what it could be. And this is the first I recall seeing about 7.x not reading it’s own JPEG files.
Check the plugins again, and try disabling all third party plugins.
No time today to go there, but thanks for the feedback. Another co-worked just tried using 7.0.1 with the same results. Maybe the installations all picked up the same problem from the same disk.
WTF! I have a similar problem, have read other posts with similar problems, but NO-One seems to know what the problem is! I am freaking out. 2 weeks ago I took some portraits. I uploaded them to my computer, everything fine, all viewable. I then saved the ones I wanted to keep in another folder as tiff’s. today I went to open some of the tiff’s, majority work fine, however there were 8 that would not open, error said "can not open because file is not a TIFF file" B.S.!! Fine, so I go back to my original jpg’s and try to open then, now the whole batch with the exception of just a couple give me the error "Invalid JPEG marker". What is the deal? Does anyone know what the answer to this problem is?
I did just download some new brushes, is this related?
I havn’t touched the files, they are exactly as they were straight out of the camera, and I was able to view them 2 weeks ago. I am getting "Invalid JPEG marker" I know they are corrupt- but WHY? Why would all of a sudden my JPEG’s be corrupt?
What should I be checking my system for? I have never had a similar problem.
This is not addressing the problem, Chris. We can’t all be corrupting our JPEGs or placing incorrect extensions (?) on our files.
It’s becoming clearer every day that there is a problem here that needs to be addressed, so we hope you will pass this issue along to the rest of your staff to take a closer look at. I know we’ve never had this problem until we installed 7.0.
I noticed that in the past, whenever I loaded Photoshop, another utility always seemed to load with it… I’m running 98se, so when I hit ctrl-alt-del. this utility shows up as Twunk-"something", 16 I think. Now- since I have been having the corruption issues, I notice that utility does not seem to be running. Anyone familiar with this Twunk_ thing? Is that a possible problem, that because its not running its not reading all jpg’s & tiff’s?
I can confirm same problem with some my images. If I’m save image as TIFF or PSD – all o’kay, in case of JPEG – saved image cannot be reopened with "Unknown or invalid JPEG marker" message. Simple workaround for me is to switch "Image previews" to "Never save" in Preferences->File Handling dialog. I suppose, that problem resides in Photoshop 7 internals.
I’ll investigate this problem a little bit more. If I replace MMXCore plugin MMXCore.8BX version 7.0.1 (size:163840 date:2002-07-17) with older one MMXCore.8BX version 7.0.0 (size:159744 date:2002-04-04) problem disappear. Newer plugin installed with PS 7.0.1 update, older taken from original 7.0 distribution. Tested on two workstations: one – P4 2.6G, 512M ram, Win2000 sp3; second – P3 1.1G, 512M ram, Win2000 sp3.
