As far as loading the software, this may be a dumb question but have you tried changing the compatibility settings for the software? Doesn't always work but it could be worth a shot.

It's supposedly a Compressed PhotoDefiner (?) lossless (.cpd) file (http://www.photodefiner.com/home/). Though when I try to load up the software, I can't get it to take on any of our windows machines (running 8 and 7). Don't have a mac on hand so don't know if that works or not, currently.
