How do I open/convert a .pza file?

[MotionMan]

I have an 8 year old .pza file with, I believe, a number of photographs in it. I do not have "PhotoSuite". I have Macs, but I have access to Windows (in Parallels) or, if necessary, I can jump on a PC at work.

How do I open/convert this file into something useful?

i do not know of this pizza file. what program did it originate from?

tried/have access to photoshop? or perhaps a win7 computer (which might have a little more compatibility than older versions)?

I do not have access to either.

i dunno, google seems to think only that old photosuite program will open it. and the company has bee bought out by roxio.

long shot would be to call roxio and see if they have a solution. or look for a copy of the software on the net (sounds like abandonware by now, but i won't mention the word that rhymes with schmorrent).

My guess is you'll need to grab an old copy of Photosuite (torrents maybe?) and run it in your VM. My google-fu did not turn up anything promising.

Yeah, my butthead cousin-in-law tried to pull a lmgtfy on me, but then even he could not find the solution in the results (I did look there first, of course).

Looks like Roxio Creator is your best bet to try and run it, or find an old version of Photosuite.

Simple, you page Dr. Pizza.

Here's some google-fu for you. The only realistic solution seems to be obtaining the original software.

Got it in the mail (PhotoSuite III - Thanks A), installed it, opened the file, found out my father-in-law had populated the file with aliases to pictures that were on his computer at the time (2003).

LOL.

Too funny. How big was the .pza?
