Q: .pic files will not open

I use Snow Leopard and have a bunch of .pic files. I believe they were photos taken with and old Apple Camera back in 1997. Can anyone help me open them?

Thanks

iOS 6

If you are using Snow Leopard you should be able to open .pic files in Preview. Have you tried that?

Unfortunately no, Preview does not work. I have tried several apps but nothing so far will work.

Digging around a bit it seems Preview stopped supporting .pic in OS 10.6, 10.5 and earlier were OK. Do you know anyone running a Mac pre-10.6?

If GC doesn't work you might look at XnView.

Lo and behold Graphic Converter worked! Fun to look at old family photos from 1996. We have come a long way with digital camera photos since then though!

Thanks for your help.
