I am no longer able to access any photos in my photos library that were originally saved as pict files. (They were clips from old iMovie and Idvd projects...) I can see them in the library but when I try to open them I am not able to. Would like to convert them to jpg but don't know how.....
iMac 21.5″, macOS 12.5
Check out Graphic Converter

It will open and convert those files for you. It also has a generous trial period.
I have some pic files from the 90s. Most won't open in GraphicConverter-- I'm not sure why. Thorsten Lemke is the author of GraphicConverter, and he answers emails and is very helpful. My pics are not interesting enough for me to have contacted him, though. But he has several times helped me with weird photo stuff. I recommend GraphicConverter.
how to open, save, or convert a pict file in Mac photos using Mac Monterey?
