PS7 compatible with CS3? Can't open file in PS7

Have a problem I'm hoping to get some help with.
Have a client running PS7 with no option to upgrade.
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!
~Danny

No one should be running Photoshop 7. The 7.0.1 is
mandatory.
Make sure there are no Smart Filters or Smart Objects in the file, nor anything that includes any feature that didn't exist in Photoshop 7.x.

Is Adobe CS5 compatible with CS3 and Dreamweaver 8 files

All,
We have eight users that are using CS3 (Photoshop, InDesign and Acrobat 8) plus Dreamweaver Studio 8 on Windows XP Pro 32-bit. Two of these users are moving to Windows 7 64-bit. We don't have it in the budget to upgrade all 8 users. Will Adobe CS5 Premium files (particularly InDesign and Dreamweaver) work with CS3 and Dreamweaver 8 files?
Thanks

InDesign absolutely NOT! InDesign can only save back one version.
But...CS3 runs just fine on Win7 64 bit.
I'm not sure about what issues you'll have with Dreamweaver.
Please post followups in the InDesign and Dreamweaver forums.

Error 6640 InDesign CS3 - Can't open files.

Hello;
I can't seem to open, save or export any of my documents due to an Error Code: -6640 that pops up when I click on any of the folders in the 'Open File' box. The message reads:
"The operation could not be completed. There was a problem with selected file or folder. It might have been moved, renamed, or deleted."
I'm on Mac OS X 10.5.2. Has anyone encountered this and found a solution to remedy it?
Thank you.
Gregg

Update system to 10.5.4 and InDesign to 5.0.3 to begin with.

Clamxav scan came up with dev/fd/3 can't open file

Hi all!
I'm running a clamxav scan as i am worried that i may have something on my comp after a security compromise on one of my gaming accounts. It has come up with
"WARNING: Can't open file /dev/fd/3: Permission denied"
and as i have no idea about computers or what on earth this file is or used for i am not sure if it is anything i need to worry about...
Thanks for your help!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
It's nothing to worry about, it's actually a little bit of developer code to find the file descriptor of an application, not something a user needs to read or write so just forget about it.
More: +To understand what is going on, first note that "/dev/fd" is a "virtual" thing. It is a kind of a hack (developed for the use of shell scripts, I think) that gives a program a view of *its own* file descriptors.+
+This means that if I have two programs running (e.g., '/bin/bash' and '/usr/bin/du'), and each of those looks in "/dev/fd", they could see different things. Each will see one file for each file descriptor that it has open, and the name of the file will be the number of that open descriptor.+
+For example, by default, each program will have three open file descriptors, 0, 1, 2 (stdin, stdout, stderr). Different programs will have different ones open, so what you saw above is the result of that. The shell looked in "/dev/fd" and saw a number of files, one for each of its open files. The names were then passed to 'du' on the command line, as if the command were+
+du -ks /dev/fd/0 /dev/fd/1 /dev/fd/2 /dev/fd/3 ...+
+Then 'du' runs. Without looking at the code, I can only guess, but what has to be happening is that 'du' has closed FD 3, and when it tries to get information about '/dev/fd/3', the kernel gives it an error. The error is "EBADF" (see '/usr/include/sys/errno.h'), because access to "/dev/fd/3" is the same as accessing file descriptor 3 (for example, stat("/dev/fd/3",...) is the same as fstat(3,...))."+

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path using any of these perfectly normal methods:
1. double-click file in the Finder (e.g in a Folder on your Mac or on your Mac desktop etc.)
2. select file and choose "File... Open" command-o in the Finder
3. drag file to the application icon in the Finder.
4. Select file in Bridge and double-click, choose File.. Open.. or Drag icon to InDesign icon in dock.
If you try to open an ID file named with a "#", you will get an error message "Missing required parameter 'from' for event 'open.'"
This happens to any InDesign file that has a "#" (pound sign, number sign, or hash) in the filename or in the file path (any parent folder).
To reproduce
Name an InDesign file Test#.idd Try to open it in the Finder or Bridge (as opposed to the "Open" dilaog of InDeisng itself).
"Solution"
The file WILL open using File... Open... command-o while in InDesign application.
Rename the file or folders that have a "#" (shift-3) in the filename.
Report to Adobe if it bugs you.
This does not occur in "plain" Leopard 10.5 nor Tiger 10.4
Untested in Panther or before and
Untested with CS3 and earlier in Snow Leaopard.
Anyone have those and want to try this... ?

In case this really bothers you: we've added a workaround for this into Soxy. If you enable the option, these documents will open fine on double-click.
You need Soxy 1.0.7 from:
http://www.rorohiko.com/soxy
Go to the 'Soxy' - 'Preferences' - 'Other' dialog window, and enable 'Open InDesign via Script'
(Irrelevant background info (it's all invisible to the user): the workaround works by special-casing how Soxy opens documents in InDesign: instead of using AppleScript, Soxy will use ExtendScript to instruct InDesign to open the document - which works fine).

How do I reinstall iWeb 3.0.3? I inadvertently opened an html file of my website and tried to open it with iWeb '09. I get a message saying "Can't open file" etc., etc. I've tried reinstalling the updated version. Iweb will not open.

Delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder. Then launch iWeb and see if it opens.
What happened was trying to open the html file reset the file path that iWeb saves in its preference file to tell it where to go when you launch iWeb. Deleting the pref file and launching iWeb creates a new file and iWeb looks in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder for the Domain.sites2 file it uses to create your site.

My trackpad can't open file with double click

i don't know what's going on, but my trackpad can't open file with double click. i have to open it with right click, open or open with. i've tried to fix it in the system preferences, it didn't work out well.

William - you are wonderful! I had looked at that - they were set to 'internal' which seemed like RH...but selecting the 'design view' and then reselecting 'use default editor' instead of 'auto-select editor' did it. THANK YOU!!!!!

Can't open files in iCloud

Just recently, I haven't been able to open files stored in iCloud using either Pages or Numbers. When I try with either application, I get an error message saying, e.g., "The file “Wines.pages” couldn’t be opened." What can I do to fix that?

Possibly you have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed over 110 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs.

Can't open files in Elements 6

I am a new mac user - switching from windows 3 weeks ago. Have Leopard installed on macbook pro and just bought Elements 6. I made Elements the default editor in Iphoto, however, can't open files in Elements nor in the Bridge that came with Elements. Also, the photos don't even show up in Bridge! Are they supposed to? I used Elements in Windows - had no trouble. Are Iphoto & Elements really compatible? What am I doing wrong?

The problem is your workflow. If you use iphoto, you don't use bridge, and you should never poke around in the iphoto library from any program except iphoto, since that's a fast road to corrupting the library, which is as delicate as a gardenia about being touched by anything but iphoto.
You have two choices:
1. Set PSE as your external editor from iphoto in the iphoto preferences, then send your photos directly from iphoto to PSE. If you do that, Save, not Save As, without making any changes to the name or format of your photo and iphoto will keep one version + original for you. If you save another group of edits, it will replace the previous version.
2. Export the photos from iphoto to your desktop or somewhere and then use File>Open in PSE, save the photos under new names and reimport them to iphoto as new files.
If you prefer to use Bridge, then don't use iphoto. Trying to use both is a shortcut to madness.

Can't Open Files in Photoshop CS6 13.1.1

Ever since I updated my Photoshop to 13.1.1 I can't open files in Photoshop. Everytime I try to use file > browse it hangs when I select a file to open and then when I try to just double-click on a .psd file in my normal Finder it never opens and it hangs the program.
I'm running 10.8.2 on a 15" MBP Retina and using Creative Cloud. Any help would be appreciated since it's preventing me from working on this computer.

Cyndi -
I would start with the easiest thing Archive the preference file to your desktop then we can continue from there if that doesnt work.
- Close PS
- Type this into your run menu
%appdata%/adobe/adobe photoshop cs3/
- Now drag the Adobe Photoshop CS3 Settings folder onto your desktop
- Keep the adobe folder window open
- Launch PS
- If this works then there was something corrupted in the preferences somewhere
- If this doesnt work then delete the newly created preference folder from the adobe folder and drag the one from your desktop back into the adobe folder.
Hope this helps.

HELP!!! Is CS6 compatible with CS3?

This seems like it should be a simple question - but I have not found any answers on the Cloud site and Adobe's India help center literally had no idea?!?!?!?! REALLY? Does anybody know if the Cloud version of CS6 is compatible with CS3?

Not able to get you on this... , With Cloud the CS6 applications is what you get ...If you are asking about the file created in CS6 and you want to open it in CS3 , then we need to know which application and File format
