I just completed a project, closed the app and then wanted to go back in and make a change, and I got: The document XXXXX.pxm couldn't be open.... Document is damaged, or isn't compatible with Pixelmator 3.8.1
I can open other projects but not the one I was working on.
Any ideas??

This error probably has a variety of possible causes. Last time I saw it, it was caused by a transient iCloud sync problem. If the file that is showing the error is on iCloud, have a look at the file size. If it's zero bytes it may well be that. Mine just went away in a few hours after Apple sorted whatever problem was causing it.

Thanks, Ive run into that before, but in this case it is "fully" on my desktop and I get the same error.

For those searching the forum or coming from google, I wrote about the solution here: viewtopic.php?t=19910
Essentially, the solution is:
1. Boot into Safe Mode
2. Open Pixelmator Pro
3. Open any image file
4. Restart into Normal Mode
5. It works!
