You should really lighten up, man :D! Maybe practice some yoga :P. But to (en)lighten your spirit, the reason you can't open *.3ds is probably because you're trying to open them directly, instead of importing them ;). From the manual:
If that doesn't work, you can always try to drag the *.3ds file over a viewport to load it. Hopefully this will rid you of some of that frustration ;). |

3d studio MAX only opens .max files, and as MyseriXYZ said: you have to import the other formats like in your case; the .3ds-file format. |
