A:

If you think they are Word docs, change the extension to .doc and see if you can open them.

Did you ever use a canon camera and its software? That is also a possibility.

What application did you use to create the PSF files?
Or, what kind of document is it supposed to be? Text, image, database, etc,?

What was the name of the application that created the documents? I can't tell from your post. The system may not be correctly recognizing the file format to begin with, which is why it is assigning an extension unfamiliar to you and also why you can't find anything to open it with. If you tell us the application that created the files originally and what type of files they are supposed to be... such as spreadsheet or word document or whatever we might be able to come up with a solution.

Yosemite is incapable of running Power-PC applications.

A file with the PSF file extension is an Adobe Photoshop Proof Settings file.

The OS is incorrectly recognizing the files and adding a .psf extension by mistake. You need to change the extension to the correct extension. Odds are you will need to use .docx or .doc.

I don't know what would change the extensions. With Word X (and earlier versions of OS X), it was easy to create documents without an extension. But, again, I don't know what would have added the extension.
