Question: My photo shows a lock in the layers palette. How do I unlock the file?
Answer: Most photos open with the background locked. To unlock it, you need to convert the background to a layer. You can do this by double-clicking on the background layer in the layers palette, or by going to the menu: Layer > New > Layer from Background.
