Question

Hi,

I recieved a large layered PSB file that was probably saved for CS and not saved to be CC compatiable. How can I open this file with CC? Is there an app that I can use to open it?

Hi there,

 

The files created using the CS versions of Photoshop should work with the latest version of the application as well and you should be able to open them without any issues. 

 

All PSD and PSB files are forward compatible, i.e., old files can be opened with the newer versions.

 

Regards

Ok, so what does "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop." mean?

Is possible to have the file re-saved using the version that it was created with? If yes, then please save the option for Maximum Compatibility checked.
