Subject: After effects error when collecting files

Good Morning everyone,

..... at least it is morning here in London :-)
I am dealing with a fast project that has grown like a fungus in all directions
during the last months and i am in the process of backing it up and i have to
do it very well since it is 130 GB big including all surplus assets which i dont
need anymore!
After reducing the project to its bare essentials I initiated 'collect files' and
received the following erroe message in AE CS5, AE CS5.5 and AE CS6:
After Effects error: File path "2min_Retail_J01_1-5.psd" is too long"
I used a lot of multilayered psd compositions ....

What does that mean and how can I resolve that ??..... I have thousands of files
that need backing up and need to separate them from the ones which are not
used in the project.

For any advice me and my client would be very grateful
Thanks and have a wonderful day
Peter
