:-/ I have an important picture that I need to open. It says that it is a BCI file. I can't get it to open. How can I open this file? I have tried changing the name.
Thank you!You need a photo editing program to open it... Have you tried searching for a program to open it with using the Internet?

[glb]Flame[/glb]Thanks for your help. I have a couple of photo editing PROGRAMS installed on my computer but they can't open it. I have tried to find OTHERS on the internet but have found nothing that will open a BCI file. What the heck is a BCI file anyway?salmonboy......This may help you .

dl65 Thanks, but they can't open this file. The actual file name is ****.jpg.bci
The file may somehow be corrupt, but I did see a thumbnail of it. The picture was taken with a sony camera, but won't open with anything I know of.
Anyone know what a jpg.bci file is and how to open it?Why don't you MAKE a copy of it, and take off the .bci extension, so the copy would be ****.jpg

Just a thought.Thanks, I tried that and it doesn't work either! :-/So then you seem to be LEFT with....

1. Who created the file?
2. What did they create it in (program)?
3. Did it originally have a .bci extension?
4. Where did you get the file?
Hi Never heard of a program .bci that's the program you will need to open whatever that may be put bci into google search and see what comes up. I have jst done that and it showed no program you will need to go back to the source where you got the picture from.The picture was taken on a sony mavica cd camera. Originally the picture would open but only the top half was visible. Next thing I know somehow a .bci got attached to the end of it . I have no idea how. I was looking at files in the recycle bin before deleting them when lo and behold there was a thumbnail of the entire picture, but when I restored it it had a .bci attached to it and now won't open. I really appreciate the helpful ideas you all are offering!Hi I would get onto sony it seems you might need a program to open the PICS from that camera.
