Need your help I have a bunch of photos that are from the year 2000 of my son that I can't view because of old extentions... how would i go about fixing this?
They are coming up as PSF files...  | |

Subject: Re: Displaying PSF format
From: nemonihil-ga on 27 May 2004 12:49 PDT Hello everybody, I just encountered the same problem and solved it. It was a scanned picture of a flatbed scanner. The creating application was called "ArcSoft PhotoStudio" and can be bought at http://www.arcsoft.com/en...tostudio/. However, there is a free tool which can display it, too. This tool is called "xnview" and can be donloaded from http://www.xnview.com/ . nemonihil | |

Clue? -Click once on the file to select it -wait a sec -click again on the file and you can change the filename Or right-click on the filename and one of the options should be 'rename' If the renamed file doesn't open, you should try installing the camera's software; see if you can open the files and save them using a different format. You don't scare me; i got kids | |

Yeah did that... no dice... It is a veryMaryann, on XP the default setting is to hide extensions. Could you actually see the extension .psf still after you had saved it to the hard drive? Something that can catch people out, is that when you rename a files extension, the original extension remains because it was "hidden", and you merely add another extension to the end when you renamed it. Example: picture.psf ----> picture.psf.jpg instead of: picture.psf -----> picture.jpg Just to make sure this is not happening, whilst in My Documents go to Tools > Folder Options > View Tab. Remove the tick from beside "hide extensions for known file types" - Click Apply and OK. Then go and look at your saved picture and see if it has made a diference. Might be bit of a long shot, but worth trying  old camera from say 98 99... dont have it anymore.... nor am certain of the the software...Will try it this way... | |

Because you cannot change filenames if they're on CD; if you've copied them to your harddrive, they're marked as read-only. Again right-click the filenames (when on harddrive), properties and remove the tick at read-only, then try renaming them. Ususally the camera's software can be downloaded from the suppliers website. *takes 2nd cuppa coffee this morning. hey love  [Edited 7/30/07 23:13pm] You don't scare me; i got kids | |
