Opening cs3 to CS5 .psd files?

I'm new to photoshop CS5 and I get this error on some PSD files "Could not complete your request because it is not a valid photoshop document" and I think its because these files .psd were made/saved in CS3. So is there a way that I can open the CS5 CS3 .psd files?

If CS3 .psd files should open in CS5, so nobody knows what could be my problem? Thank you!

All file names start with a period?  . somefile.psd

These files are usually preview/meta. They are not the actual image files.

Search the largest somefile.psd instead of . somefile.psd

  • PSE 8 cannot use the option up DNG or PSD files

    I'm working through the book from Mark Galer "Adobe Photoshop éléments 8 Maximum Performance" and in the part 1 project 2, it takes you through a process to make the adjustments located in part with the cab and the main Editor.

    I opened the DNG in ACR adjustments for it and then following the instructions in the book clicked on the 'Open the Image' button to take back me to the PSE MAin editing area. It then says should be able to return to the DNG file using the file-> Place menu, but Place is greyed out.

    I tried to work my way around it and began to think that the option space was not at all available. If I open an entirely separate psd file, it is grayed out, but if I open a jpeg file is allotted me.

    Of course, missing me something here. I must admit that I am not too impressed by the book, because it seems to ignore certain milestones at different stages and I hd to guess some of them (like the DNG files are required for a project and method to use to open).

    Can anyone help with suggestions on how to go through the trial, opening a DNG in ACR, open it in the main editor and then go back to reprocess differently in order to put in the separate layer.

    Thank you very much

    Neil

    The option to place is generally not available for 16-bit files, then when the image editing in acr

    change where says depth of 8 Bits/channel or once you open a 16-bit file access

    Image > Mode > 8 Bits/channel.

  • files between cs3 and cs5 compatibility

    Hello

    What are the issues of the compatilibity between Photoshop CS3 and CS5?  Can they be used together without much (if any) questions?

    Thank you.

    They can happily coexist on the same system, as long as you have the disk space.  Photoshop has always been like that.

    You will be able to run one at a time, at a given moment, however.

    About the compatibility of files, I did not how many it is necessary to open a file in Photoshop CS3, but the new version offers a preference setting "Maximize compatibility" to save the .psd files.  On occasion, I opened the .psd file in Photoshop CS3 saved by CS5 (using the parameter above) and I didn't know all the problems at all.

  • CS5.1 Extended 64-bit Photoshop stops abruptly loading psd files

    For some reason any Photoshop CS5.1 that I installed on my Windows 7 64 b has stopped working.  It still works on my other computer however.  It starts fine, but when I go to open a PSD file (that I modified here before) nothing - absolutely nothing happens!  When I try to create a new file the same nothing happens.  Can someone give me a hint?  I hope that I have not reinstall or something.  I don't think I did updates to Photoshop, it has just stopped this week's work for no apparent reason I can think.

    I also returned and tried my CS5 version and the same thing happens.

    Looks like a lot to a video card driver bug prevents drawing documents, or you used another screen and Photoshop to open documents on this screen (the system still thinks is active).

    In most cases, updating the web site of the manufacturer of the GPU video adapter driver solves the problem.

  • Save PSD files in Photoshop CS5.5

    Hello

    I'm new to photoshop and I'm having a problem to save my layers in PSD Photoshop cs5.5.  I created 4 layers, and they all look great. the screenshot of my properties panel looks like this:

    photo shop pic 2.jpg

    The problem is that after having record in a PSD file and during the recording process of the layers box is checked, it only opens with all the layers.  So, if I close the original that has all 4 layers and then it reoping after his saves, it's not the same.  The image looks correct and all layers are in the picture, but on the properties panel aside, it looks like this

    Please help, because now I'm not able to change this picture later if I like it because I can not select individual layers.

  • Reclassification of CS3 to CS5.  Problems with the old file.

    I design a monthly publication, which is always started from an InDesign template.  This template has been created in CS3 and Incopy all links have been created using CS3 as well.

    We have upgraded to CS5 today and now we are unable to connect to these stories.  Here is the error message:

    "This story must be converted to the format"InCopy Document"in order to change it."

    Should I dissociate and create a new InCopy Documents or is there a quick way to solve this problem?

    Thank you!

    I don't know, I think it's pretty fast.

    Open the file in CS3.

    Select all the stories in the Panel assignments (shift-click to get them all). -10 seconds

    Click the icon to break the (trash) link at the bottom of the Panel. -1 second

    Close the file in CS3, do a save as w/a different name if you wish. -5 seconds

    Open the CS3 to CS5. Save or save as. -20-30 seconds (depending on the size)

    (Personally, at this stage, even if I was not using InCopy, I would still be exporting to IDML and then reopen it in ID CS5, by saving the document without title with another name, since you are skipping a few versions.) But it is not necessary. If you do, add another minute).

    Choose Edition > InCopy > export all stories, 10-20 seconds, depending on how much it must export.

    The end. It is 2 minutes, Yes?

  • Maximum size of the psd file of CS5 2 gig?

    I´m PS CS5 64 bit on a system Win7 w 4 GB of RAM running. I ve read somewhere on a PSD file size limited to 2 giga max.

    Still holds true?

    Thank you all for your comments!

    It can only be read by Photoshop CS or newer. Don't know about Illustrator, but it's probably the same for her. You can also try using the format of TIFF files that supports up to 4 GB in size, but once again, only Photoshop CS or newer will open them if they are beyond 2 GB

  • Opening documents InDesign CS5 to CS3?

    I found this useful article on how to open a CS5 document in CS3.

    http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/InDesign/CS/using/WSa285fff53dea4f8617383751001ea8cb3f-6d4da.h tml

    Unfortunately it doesn't because I need to have the CS4 in order to remove it. I have only CS3 and CS5. Is there another way to get InDesign CS5 document in CS3?

    Help, please!

    The only way to get CS3 to CS5 is through CS4 CS5 does not know .inx and CS3 does not .idml. You will lose all the features that are not supported, and you should expect differences in line because of the differences in text engines. To come back really isn't a recommended workflow.

    What is the compelling reason, and how many files you need to convert? A number of us would be willing to do one or two for you, but as I said, this isn't a good workflow, especially if they do a round trip.

  • First use - crashes when opening a PSD file

    The first thing I did when I ran Photoshop Elements to open a PSD file that I had received from graphic designer.

    It crashed. Not frozen, no hourglass. I couldn't close it. I got it to EndTask.

    When I opened it again, I could open a jpg fine, but when I tried to open the PSD again, it crashed.

    I tried an another PSD of the same creator: same result. The files I want to open are approximately 150 megabytes.

    I downloaded a sample PSD on the internet, and I could charge it very well.

    Please tell me what is the problem. I buy this software only because I need to be able to open PSD files.
