unable to open lif file

[maimisa]

I cannot open some of my lif files and have no idea why that is. One of my
file opened fine but I don't know what was different about that one. Below
is the error message that I got. I've tried to update to the new bioformat
but that makes no difference.

LIFReader initializing C:\Users\maimisa\Desktop\Confocal\15_3_1 confocal

...

I was wondering if anyone else experience this or can help with the issue.
Greatly appreciate any help

Hi Mai,

> I cannot open some of my lif files and have no idea why that is.

This is a Bio-Formats issue. I see that you already started two threads on
the ome-users list [1, 2], which is the best place to ask for Bio-Formats
support. Someone from the OME team will follow up with you there.

Regards,
Curtis
