Hi All,
I have a project with a number of Layers in it, Photos, Graphics, Transparency Background, Lettering in Curves, etc. I saved the project as usual yesterday and when I went to open it today, it would not open. I created on a Win7 machine and later opened on a Mac which I do on a daily basic. I am using Photoshop CC. I can not recall the exact error, but it was getting an error mentioning a problem with Jpeg. I confirmed that my file was in fact now a Jpeg file. Research indicated that if I opened the file with the Apple Viewer and do a Save As PSD, the file would then be able to open by Photoshop and infact that did work. However, all my layers, history, etc. are all gone and the file is now flattened which will not work for me. I would like to know what caused this so I can avoid it next time as this has cost me a great deal of time now.
I thought as a last ditch effort, I would check my master files on my Win7 machine and they are Flattened Jpeg, no history or layers, etc. Something happened at save time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
