# Open a file

You can open and import images in various file formats. The available formats appear in the Open dialog box and the Import submenu.

1. Choose File > Open.
2. Locate and select the file you want to open.
3. Click Open. In some cases, a dialog box appears, letting you set format-specific options.

   There may be instances when Photoshop Elements cannot determine the correct format of a file. For example, transferring a file between Mac OS® and Windows® can cause the format to be mislabeled. In such cases, you must specify the correct format in which to open the file.
