1. Make sure QuickTime 7 or later is installed on your computer.
    It is most likely installed during Adobe Photoshop or Adobe CS3 setup but can also be downloaded and installed from Apple web site.
  2. From the File menu, open Import submenu and select Video Frames to Layers… command.
    The Load dialog box shows up. (This will take more than two seconds the first time but appears immediately afterwards.)
  3. Navigate to the folder which contains your Animated GIF files.
    They will not show up on your Load dialog box.
  4. In the File Name field, type *.gif and press ENTER.
    Your animated GIF files will show up.
  5. Select the file you intend to import and click Load button or press ENTER.
    Import Video To Layers dialog box will show up.
  6. Ensure the Make Frame Animation check box is checked.
  7. Click OK button.
    The animation will load into Adobe Photoshop.
