Hi folks,

Does anyone know how to unlock RAW files after importing them from CD's? I've had some stored and I'm bringing them into the new Photoshop CS. They all have locks on them and I'm trying to add IPTC info but it won't let me. I've checked the help sections yet to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I'm probably misunderstanding something... but is that a write-protect lock, by chance? I've had similar problems when moving files from CD- they can get flagged as read-only when they're written to that type of media, and need to be changed back before you can edit them (in Windows, it's right-click --> Properties --> deselect the Read-Only box). If you're referring to some kind of software/copyright lock in CS, I'm afraid I can't help... don't have my copy yet.

Regards,
Steve

That's it! Should have tried it in the 1st place. Thanks for your help Steve.
