Understanding FPX Issues

Common Problems Opening FPX Files

Kodak EasyShare Not Present

Double-clicking your FPX file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open FPX File". When this happens, it is commonly due to Kodak EasyShare missing in %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your FPX file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.

Tip: If you know of another program that can open your FPX file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.

Outdated Kodak EasyShare

Your FlashPix Bitmap Image File file is incompatible with Kodak EasyShare because you might have the wrong version installed. If you've got the wrong version of Kodak EasyShare installed, you'll need to install the correct version. The primary cause of this problem is that your FlashPix Bitmap Image File file was created by a different (newer) version of Kodak EasyShare than what's installed.

Tip: Right-clicking on your FPX, then clicking "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), can provide clues about your file version.

Conclusion: The majority of FPX file opening issues are due to not having the correct Kodak EasyShare version installed.

Other FPX File Issues

You can still experience errors opening FPX files even with the latest version of Kodak EasyShare installed on your PC. If you're still experiencing problems opening FPX files, there could be other computer problems. These other problems include (listed in order from most to least common):
