When you open an image in Photoshop, one of the following errors occurs:

Solutions

When you select a format that from the Format pop-up menu in the Save As dialog box, the suitable extension is added automatically. And when user entered the extension manually, then there is a chance that you could have typed in an extension that doesn’t equivalent to the file format of your file.

In Mac OS
