Can I open psd files created in Photoshop CC with lower version? Actually CS5.

Can I open psd files created in Photoshop CC with lower version? Actually CS5.
My home and office have different version each.

Yes, PROVIDED that the file has not been saved with any layers containing any of the specific new features introduced starting with Photoshop CC and higher.
If the file has been flattened or if it was flat to begin with there will be no problems.

Can I open psd file made in photoshop cs3 with photoshop ps2?

Can I open psd file made in photoshop cs3 with photoshop ps2? Thanks in advance!

Actually you can open a CS3 file with smart filters in CS2
the only problem is CS2 will not understand the Smart filter and flatten it.
If you leave the smart filtered object alone in CS2 save the file and it should still be a smart filtered object in CS3

Import error when importing .psd file created in Photoshop CS3

I have a file that was created in Photoshop CS3. I am trying to import this file into Catalyst CS5, but I keep getting an input error. I created a file in Photoshop CS5 and I was able to import this .psd file successfully into catalyst. So I guess my question is this; Does Catalyst support .psd files created in Photoshop CS5 only? If this is the case, how can I convert the CS3 .psd to a CS5 .psd

I am now building my files using photoshop CS5. A few challenges I have experienced while trying to import into Catalyst:
- If I do a straight import into Catalyst, I loose all my colors in Catalyst. That is, catalyst imports all my vectors without any of the colors I had in Photoshop. My understanding is that Catalyst has libraries to support Photoshop files, so your import from Photoshop should not look any different in Catalyst.
Work Around: I have had to rasterize / merged all my image layers for the different components I have built in Photoshop CS5. Then when I start the import process I click the Advanced button on the catalyst import dialog. From the advanced dialog, I have to flatten (to bitmap) all the images I intend to import.
This process takes about two hours because I have a lot of components on the page.
Is there something I'm not doing right here? I'm not seeing the value add to Catalyst, if it's taking me this long to just import .psd files

Can not open .psd files in Photoshop!

I am using Photoshop CS4 11.0.1 (Macintosh 10.5.6). Files created in Photoshop are saved to disc as .psd. Next time upon opening (both double clicking file and opening from within Photoshop) message appears: ‘Could not complete your request because the file is empty’ (I can see the file and ‘look’ at it using space bar). Older .psd files open normally. I did start using Spaces a few days ago. Maybe that's the culprit? Any ideas?

That sounds like the files are corrupted. I would be looking for disk problems.
And you really should be on MacOS 10.5.8 - they fix a lot of bugs with each dot release.

Can't open DNG files created with Mac CS5 downloader in Mac CS4 Photoshop

I recently installed CS5 on my mac but I kept CS4 installed as well. I notice that I cannot open DNG files created with CS5 in Photoshop CS4. Bridge CS4 shows the files only as icons - no image thumbnails. I am able to open these same files on a Windows version of CS4. Is there some plugin for my mac CS4 that will enable me to access the DNG files created with CS5? Is there a way to use my CS5 downloader when converting my raw files from my camera to DNG files that will make them compatiple with PS and Bridge CS4?

Well, yes...but you'll need to modify your DNG Converter prefs to allow for that. You''ll need a recent (ideally current DNG Converter 6.4.1 or above) and click on the DNG Converter preferences and select the correct DNG Converter options. Check DNG Converter 6.4.1 (the current version) and click on "Change Preferences" to be sure select Camera Raw 5.4 and later then make sure CS4 is updated to ACR 5.7 (which is the last version of ACR for CS4) However, the changes made to ACR 6.x really should be adopted since IQ for ACR 6.4.x is a lot better...

Photoshop cs4 - Can't open .psd files in Bridge

I cannot open .psd files in Bridge, only .jpg and .tif, as far as I know. The .psd files are flattened--no layers. What's wrong?

Generated in PS cs4...always starting with a .jpg, working on it, then saving as .psd.
I open Bridge, navigate to the file I want to work on. The round icon that is for opening files in Camera Raw is grayed out. It IS available for .jpg and .tif files. If I go to the File menu in the upper left, there is no option to open the .psd file in Bridge. If I just click Open, the file will open in the default program I use for quickly viewing all photos (Irfanview).
Thinking also about the reply from 2.rob...
I hope I don't need to designate .psd files to always open in Photoshop in order to get this to work. I have all photo types set to Open for quick viewing in Irfanview, which I like very much. Often I want to look at a .psd file w/o opening Photoshop, which takes a while to load.

i have to give local administrator rights to users that they can work with psd files.

Can't open psd files from Bridge CS6

Had both CS4 and CS6 installed, CS4 Bridge added itself when I wanted just CS6 Bridge, so uninstalled CS4. Now cannot open psd files from SC6 Bridge. What do I do?.

What is Bridge doing when you try to open the PSD file? Do you get a warning, does nothing happen? Did you open the preferences in CS6 bridge and set the file opening preferences to make sure they are set to PS CS6?

Can't Open PSD files in Photoshop! What's happening?

Hi guys,
Can someone pls tell me why when I open a PSD file in Photoshop CS2 or CS3 , the psd file apparently seems to be opened but in reality nothing happens as I only get a blank image in Photoshop? In other words, it's like the file has not been opened at all as I only get the usual very small grey and white boxes in Photoshop although at the same time the psd filename and other data associated with the file can be seen on Photoshop's interface as if the file has been loaded normally when in fact it's far from it?!!!...
Am I doing something wrong?
Just to let you know this happens after I tried to open a downloaded file from the Internet but it happens all the time when I try these kind of files in photoshop.
Pls help
Thanks in advance for your help..
Corolla...

Hello guys,
Thanks for your replies first of all.
To answer your questions John, please refer to the Print Screen in this link: http://i32.tinypic.com/2vhzvvm.jpg
I highlighted in yellow the most important things related to this topic in the pic, also referred to in my previous email.
I got the psd file from a public filehosting site and many users thanked the uploader for his great upload; thus I must have something wrong or I'm doing it wrong as the others seem not to have this prob!!!
As regards Ed's question, no indeed, I don't have any problems if I create a psd file myself closes it and opens it whenever I want.
And the filesizes are not at all small as the ones I'm talking about and which I'm having the problems with are sized from 20MB to 32MB.
Reference to your last question Ed, no I haven't tried to trash/reset preferences as per the FAQ as I have only been using Photoshop very recently.
Thanks in advance.
Corolla
Seems like strange I don't know.

Photoshop CS 5.1 - can't open psd files

Hi,
I have Photoshop CS 5.1 32bit and 64bit (running on 64bit windows), and sometimes it happens that I can't open files (jpg, psd, ...) in it. When I drag and drop a file to photoshop, or click on Open file dialog, or even try to make a new document, nothing happens.
I have tried tricks with deleting preferences, but it didn't help. The only thing that helps is restarting windows - but this is not a practical solution for me.
I would expect some help from Adobe on this, since we pay a lot for their products!
Thanks,
Marek

Hi, Marek,
Unfortunately this is a forum for the CommunityHelp application and not a Photoshop forum, so there isn't a way to get an answer here.
Might I suggest that you describe your problem in a Photoshop forum such as:

Photoshop CS6 can't/won't open TIFF file created in photoshop CS3

Earlier this year, I was still using CS3. I created a bunch of original TIFF files, and modified files which had been created in CS1. When I am having to go back and reference these CS3 TIFFs, some of them are giving me an error message and refusing to open. Evidently, they are not compatible with CS6?! Seriously?!
I have since uninstalled CS3, but the box is sitting on the shelf if I need it (which I am hoping I don't). Any suggestions for a workaround - preferably one which will not destroy my layers.
Thanks!

Well, carp. Just like when you take your car in to the mechanic: I can't find any of the offending TIFF files. Not surprising considering that I have just north of 1,000 on my drive. Yikes.
For the record, the error message basically just said that the file I was trying to open was incompatibile with this version of Photoshop. And just now I successfully opened a file from April 2005, originally created in CS, and it is completely intact. My novice-ness shows through , but it's perfectly intact.
Sorry to bother to Board; I'll come back when (if?) the message comes back.
Thanks.

I can see thumbnail but can't open psd file,photoshop 7

I have no idea to what is going on, but I did all this work and now that I try to reopen the psd file, I can't.
I don't see anything, no layer, no photo nothing.
I am using window xp. got the scratch setup on an external drive with plenty of space. got 4gof memory and plenty of processing power.
once again I can see the thumbnail but can't open the psd file.
Thank you for your help.

I got it to work. I think my main problem was since my psd file crashed I was using existing pdf to save as psd. well that didn't go well with photoshop. Plus the fact my scratch was in an external location. Once I recreated the drawing and installed an additional hard-drive where I relocated the scratch file I was set to go. I now can save and reopen the file with no issues.
I would like to thank everyone who helped me with this issue.
