Thanks James,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">That particular error looks to be due to not having the Netcdf upgrade, the important thing is that it has identified the file as Imaris HDF and is attempting to use the correct image reader.</div>
<div class="">Can you run the below ImageJ macro, selecting the file from the dialog box when prompted, and provide the output log:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">run("Bio-Formats Macro Extensions");</div>
<div class="">id = File.openDialog("Choose a file");</div>
<div class="">Ext.getFormat(id, format)</div>
<div class="">print("ID is " + id);</div>
<div class="">print("File format is: " + format);</div>
<div class="">Ext.setId(id);</div>
<div class="">Ext.getSeriesCount(seriesCount);</div>
<div class="">for (s=0; s<seriesCount; s++) {</div>
<div class=""> Ext.setSeries(s);</div>
<div class=""> Ext.getSizeX(sizeX);</div>
<div class=""> Ext.getSizeY(sizeY);</div>
<div class=""> Ext.getSizeZ(sizeZ);</div>
<div class=""> Ext.getSizeC(sizeC);</div>
<div class=""> Ext.getSizeT(sizeT);</div>
<div class=""> print("Series #" + s + ": image resolution is " + sizeX + " x " + sizeY);</div>
<div class=""> print("Focal plane count = " + sizeZ);</div>
<div class=""> print("Channel count = " + sizeC);</div>
<div class=""> print("Time point count = " + sizeT);</div>
<div class="">}</div>
<div class="">Ext.close();</div>
