Understanding TID Issues


Common Problems Opening TID Files

Unknown Software Removed

If you attempt to load your TID file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open TID Files". If so, it typically means that you don't have Unknown Software installed for %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your TID file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.


Tip: If you have another software that you know opens TID files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.


Obsolete Version of Unknown Software

In other instances, your AVCHD Thumbnail File file version may not be supported by your version of Unknown Software. Visit the Unknown Developer website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Unknown Software. Most of the time your AVCHD Thumbnail File file was created by a newer Unknown Software than what you have installed.


Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the TID file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.


Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening TID files are due to having the wrong version of Unknown Software installed.


Other Causes of TID File Opening Problems

Although you might already have Unknown Software or another TID-associated software installed on your computer, you can still encounter problems opening AVCHD Thumbnail File files. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening TID files. Problems unrelated to software:

  • Invalid TID file references in the Windows Registry (the "phonebook" of the Windows Operating System)
  • Deletion of the TID file description from the Registry by mistake
  • Partial installation of Unknown Software that did not fully complete
  • Your TID can't be loaded properly (file corruption)
  • The TID is infected with a virus
  • Device drivers of the hardware associated with your TID file are corrupt or out-of-date
  • Too many applications are open on your PC to load your AVCHD Thumbnail File file successfully
