pand Posted March 8, 2022 Posted March 8, 2022 I have the latest version of affinity designer installed on macOS Monterey. When trying to open .psd files I get a failed to open notification, under which it says "the file type is not supported". It opens only one of my .psd files even though others are basically the same in size and everything else. I'm uploading them from local storage. Quote
walt.farrell Posted March 8, 2022 Posted March 8, 2022 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums, @pand. What application created them, and are they created by different levels of that application? Can you upload one of the ones that fails for us to look at? If they're private/sensitive, a forum Moderator will be able to provide a private upload link so you don't have to expose it publicly here.

pand Posted March 9, 2022 Author Posted March 9, 2022 They were originally created in Pixelmator and then exported to .psd from there. I've done it this way before with several illustrations and never had a problem with opening them in affinity designer. File 1 is the one that opens with no problem, file 2 is one of those that doesn't. 1.psd 2.psd Quote
Staff Lee D Posted March 10, 2022 Staff Posted March 10, 2022 @pandI can confirm Designer reports that the file can't be opened. Even PS reports that some of the layers seem to be corrupt and offers to open it flattened. Quote
