did this. it said it isnt valid. when it crashed photoshop had 3 images open. 2 psds and a jpg.
how does photoshop know whats what with the tmp file?
the original psds are just white now with nothing in them! even the targas i was writing to seem to be broken! ill try the corrupted thing maybe?
ooh the stress....:(

Are these were images you just created and hadn't saved yet?
#2
had saved them... and they wont open either.. the original psds.
x = wont open o = will open
psd 1 = x ----> tga 1 = o
psd 2 = x ----> tga 2 = x
jpg = o
was working with psd 2 at the time.
im hoping theres another way around the tmp file which was stored on another drive. how does photoshop know how to open it if you where working with 2 diff psds?
thx for your help guys. any ideas would be great.

Sorry, I'm not going to be much help. I tried searching the forums, but get the message that search isn't available. I did come across this thread <

you can't recover a tmp file. that's not your image, it's ps's scratch memmory file. just delete it, it's orphaned. if you can't recover your original file, it's toast.
couple things you can try: try to open it in imageready. if it opens re-save from there.
try to open w/a third party app. like ifranview or acdsee.
