Can photoshop 7 open cs3 files

I am sending a file to another designer who is using photoshop 7, will she be able to open my file with everything in tact, such as all the the layers and effects (drop shadows mostly/nothing extravagant).
Thanks Renee

I'm also having the same problem, but they do not have the option to upgrade and have to stay with PS7 for now.
I've saved my PSD in CS3 with the preference to maximize compatibility set to "Always", removed all layer styles, layer sets, effects...everything. It's just text layers and pixel layers. They still can't open it.
Am I doing something wrong or are they just not compatible?
Any guidance is greatly appreciated!

Can photoshop CC open raw files from Lightroom 5?

Trying to open raw files from Lightroom 5 in Photoshop CC 2014, with no luck.
Anyone?

Problems are as follows— all versions are current.
1. When in Lightroom, trying to open a photo in Photoshop,-- choosing Photo>Edit in Photoshop CC 2014— Photoshop opens but no photo appears. The only time a photo opens is if it is a JPEG… CR2 does not open, dng does not open
2. When trying to open a JPEG in Photoshop, dialog box opens offering choice between "Edit Original", "Edit a copy", or "Edit with Lightroom adjustments", Only choosing “Edit Original” allows photo to open.
3. When in Photoshop choosing “Browse in Bridge” does not open Bridge… opens CC app and prompts me to install another version of Bridge, or keep version I have. (See attached screenshot) Either way it’s a malfunction… as I said earlier all versions are leanest.
PLEASE HELP!!

Is there any photoshop API functions can let me open a file with photoshop in my plugin?

I used the function system("open file"), it works well in any other program.
For example, system("open 1.psd"), this code can use photoshop open the file 1.psd .
But it just don't work in my plugin program.
How can I use photoshop to open a file in filter plugin at Mac OS X?

Go to settings> general and scroll down to multitasking geastures, turn them on and by swiping with four fingers from the right side of the iPad to the left and back you can switch between apps. I think this is what you need I'm not sure, I hope it helps

Can I open CS3 files in Cs6

Can I open CS3 files in Cs6 For InDesign Also is CS6 Compatible in OS X 10.10

Yes and yes.

Can't open CS3 file

Often can't open CS3 files (I'm working in CS3). Then when the sender resaves in new file, problem is fixed. Huh? Am I missing a plug-in? How do I figure out which plug-in I'm missing? Is this even the problem?

It's not unusual to have this sort of error on a windows machine when trying to open files saved on a Mac and sent without compressing first. I often see two files show up in the attachments, both with the same name.
One is the resource fork, which is useless to windows users and generates that kind of error if you try to open it, and the other is the data fork, which is what you need. You can usually tell the difference by the size. The big one is the one you want.

Can CS2 open CS3 files?

I will be creating CS3 files for a new client that has CS2. Can CS2 open CS3 files? I'm sure this has been asked many times here, but I can't find the answer in a search. Thank you.

Yes, unless the file contains anything created by a CS3 specific feature that does not exist in CS2. They're both old versions, so I can't think of any off the top of my head. Just remember to save with maximize compatibility checked.
A flattened file would never be a problem, of course.

We need to know the exact source of the file and what system you're on. Could simply be an unresolvable compatibility issue/ unsupported format.

Why can't i open raw files from my eos canon 7dii on PS elements 12

Why can't i open raw files from me eos canon 7dii on PS elements 12

Because your camera is newer than your software.
You need ACR 8.7 which was released this week, to open CR2 files from the 7D.2. Only current Adobe products can use this version, which would be PSE13 and the Photoshop versions CS6, CC & 2014 and some Adobe video products.
You can also use the free DNG Converter 8.7 to create DNGs of a folder of images at a time, and then open those DNGs in an older PSE version, but you’ll never be able to open the native CR2 files unless you update the host software to the current versions.
The DNG Converter 8.7 is available from the Adobe Updates page:

Cs4 opens cs3 files with errors

Here's a big heads up for anyone considering upgrading to cs4 - don't! I've been working on a cs3 project and decided to upgrade to cs4 for the extras in the 3D toolset. All the Adobe propoganda implies this can be achieved no problem, as did soemone on telephone tech support. Perhaps I didn't clearly ask 'can I open my cs3 file in cs4'. I can BUT the clips are very much 'out of synch. I'll lick my wounds and go back to finishing in cs3 but don't purchase cs4 if you think you can seamless import your sc3 project. Because it seems you very much can not!

Dennis,
Many thanks.

Subject: Premiere Pro cs4 opens cs3 files with errors
Jarrod,
As I've stated here in this forum, we're trying to transition Adobe technical support to a new organization and providing the best support we can to our customers. That being said, it is a long and sometimes painful process, which is why I am here on the forums at times to lend some support. This doesn't help you and you might not even care so...
Here's a couple of suggestions:
1. make sure your software is updated (Premiere Pro 4.2.1) by going to help>updates
2. clear your prefs - http://blogs.adobe.com/genesisproject/2009/11/having_weird_behavior_with_an.html
3. try importing (ctrl-I) a CS3 project into CS4
Try these things and let me know how you make out. Also, it would be very helpful if you told us about your system and the specs. I've posted about the importance of 64-bit and lots of memory many times. You can find one link here: http://blogs.adobe.com/genesisproject/2009/03/64_bit_os_and_adobe_products.html
The future of Premiere Pro is 64-bit only: http://blogs.adobe.com/genesisproject/2009/10/its_official_64bit_is_the_futu.html
Beyond that if you'd like me to look into your case, please post your case # here or in a private message to me and I'll gladly look at it.
I sense your frustration and its understandable - give us a chance to help you.

Cannot Open 'CS3 file in CS2' - programmatically handle this dialog

I am running a Visual Basic app that cycles through a collection of InDesign documents performing actions. We are using CS2 and the problem occurs when a CS3 document is encountered, which hangs the app. When opening the file manually the following error dialog is encountered:
Cannot open "xxxx.indd". Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the lastest version of Adobe InDesign.
InDesign is launched by:
appInDesign = CreateObject("InDesign.Scripting.CS2")
User interaction is suppressed:
appInDesign.ScriptPreferences.UserInteractionLevel = InDesign.idUserInteractionLevels.idNeverInteract
Documents are opened by:
docInDesign = appInDesign.Open(<FilePath>, False)
How do you handle/identify this dialog/error without user interaction (I would like to skip the file)?
Thanks in advance

If you opening CS3 file in CS2 you alway get error message.
I think best solution is check indesign document version before opening it.
I have code for checking indesign version but it is Javascript code.
But it will give you idea how you can check indesign version and skip that files.
Here below is code:
f = File.openDialog ('Select file', undefined, false);
alert('Indesign version: '+getFileVersion(f));
function getFileVersion(f){
var IDVersion;
f.open('r')
f.seek(29, 0)
IDversion = f.readch().charCodeAt(0);
f.close();
return (IDversion);

Cannot open CS3 file in CC

So I finally stepped up to using Creative Cloud last week, but one file I created about 3 years ago in CS3 refuses to open. It worked fine the first time - and I don't have issues with any other old files - but now I get the error message "Cannot open". I'm using a Macbook Pro, but can't even open the file on my old PC now! Any suggestions?

Ouch. Not much help now, but working off a USB stick is REALLY dangerous. Those things take longer to close files than people realize and pulling them out before things are done can cause real damage.
There's a free tool that might help, though: Repair corrupt InDesign Adobe files on Mac OS X
But keep looking for that backup.

Can Photoshop Batch Resize Tiff Files?

I have quite a number of tiff files that I want to resize in terms of page dimensions and retain the same resolution / dpi. Can Photoshop batch resize tiff files?

Yes Photoshop ships with a plugin Fit image you can record an action to re-size an image to fit within some number of pixels. Image resolution setting and aspect ratio are not changed however the number on pixels the image will have will be less then or equal to the pixels size set. For example if you set width and height to 2000px the largest size image you could have after the operation would be 1:1 aspect ratio square 4MP 2000x2000. If your image has a landscape aspect ratio the re-sized image will be 2000px wide by less then 2000px high and if Portrait the re-sized is will be 2000px high be less then 2000px wide. Bicubic Interpolation for the re-size.
Once you record the single step action. You can batch the action. You can have batch open the image files and save over the original files or have batch save the resized files in a different location. Fit Image and Batch are both found in menu File>Automate>

I can no longer open pdf files in safari 6.02.

SAFARI CAN'T OPEN PDF'S ?
I can no longer open pdf files in safari 6.02. It worked fine up until 2 weeks ago. The pdf's open in Foxfire and Chrome browsers.
I can also download the pdf and open in acrobat directly. Safari only shows the file as ASCII characters.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste (command-V) into the text box that opens, then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.
