I do my back ups by copying a large folder of photo files. When I tried
this after starting to use CS3 windows XP couldn't read the files with the smart
layer in them. I had to reopen them in Photshop CS3 and flatten out the smart
layer or take them out completely and then resave in Photoshop. Then Windows XP
could copy them. Also in Windows 7 when using Window Explorer the psd files show
up just as an icon while jpg and tiff files show up as the image. I assume
all this was just incompatiblity in code. Since hard drives had gotten so much
bigger and cheaper I didn't really need to use smart layers. CS3 is edition 10.0
so if there was an update a never got it. Don't know what file linking is.
