Fix could not complete your request because of a disk error

Fix could not complete your request because of a disk error .When I try to open a PS file, I get the message ‘Could not complete your request because of a disk error’.

The PS file is a duplicate, I’ve copied/’saved as’ an original PS file from an external hard drive to our network drive. It was previously working fine, I was able to open, edit, export, save as and close with no problem. The next time I tried to open the file, the error message came up.

I managed to replicate this issue with a different file. Used the same procedure as before, copied an original file from an external drive to a network drive, only this time I couldn’t open the file and I get the disk error message straight after opening the file.

I saved the original file from the external drive to my local drive, seems to work fine. I tried to copy the file from the network drive to my local drive but seems to have a separate issue with the file size exceeding the limit. (the file is 80mb)

There’s over 150 BG of space available on my local drive, but not sure if this would be relevant as the file I tried to open is saved on a network drive.

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Method:

I found a solution for me! I had the original saved to my desktop. End of my day, moved it into my network drive. Next day, wouldn’t open. I re-downloaded the file from my network back onto my desktop and tried opening it there and viola! She works! Hope this helps someone else!

Surprised Adobe personnel haven’t answered this. I found a solution on another forum, and even though it makes no sense, it worked for me:

 

  • Open Photoshop
  • Go to : Edit-> Preferences -> Type
  • Go to : Choose Text Engine Options
  • Change radio button selection from : East Asian – to – Middle Eastern
  • Press OK.
  • Close Photoshop and reopen it.

Try running this on your MAC

Check Hard Drive Health of a Mac with Disk Utility

 

Are the raw files saved locally on the MAC

Just another thing to try, go to Edit > Preferences > Camera Raw and disable this if it’s enabled restart PS
