MAC OSX 10.6.2
PS CS4
Adobe Bridge CS4
I have a problem with camera raw: "camera raw editing is not enabled" pops up when i right-click on a picture, in adobe bridge, and I try to open with camera raw :-(((
Could you help me please? i tried many of the solutions on the forum (some of them I did not understand so I did not do it), but they didn't work...

get when I right click on a picture to open in camera raw (attached pic)

Could you check inBridge Preferences under start up scripts if you have at
least checkmarks in front of Adobe Bridge and Photoshop:

You should have only ACR plug in isntalled on your system, could you check
if it is in the right place"

Here is a copy of the ACR plug in instructions:

Mac:
1. Exit Photoshop CS4 and Adobe Bridge.
2. Open the download file and double-click CameraProfiles.dmg and follow
the
on-screen
instructions.
3. Open the Finder.
4. Navigate to the root of the local disk (not the user¹s home folder).
5. Navigate to Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS4/File Formats.
6. Move the existing plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder
on your desktop). Ensure
you keep this version in case you need to revert back.
7. Copy the Camera Raw plug-in, Camera Raw, from the download into the same
folder as in Step 5.
8. Launch Photoshop CS4 or Adobe Bridge.

  • Camera Raw editing is not enabled - ACR5.4 Vista 64bit

    When I use Bridge, and right click and select to open a raw file in Camera Raw, I get this message:
    "Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature".
    There is no problem in Bridge when opening a raw file in Camera Raw when just Open With (PS) or double-clicking
    I have seen many have the same problem, and I have tried most of the hints found in forums, but no luck.
    I running Windows Vista 64bit. Installed and activated Photoshop CS4 in the standard directories and installed ACR 5.4 manually as described by Adobe by copy the plugin files to folders:
    Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats\
    Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats\
    There are no other files in this 2 directories.
    I have tried purging cache, and have closed both Brigde and Photoshop and startet Bridge from Photoshop by using -file, -browse in Bridge. And still the same problem.
    There are no errors in the files alm.log and amt.log in %temp% directory.
    Thanks for any help

    I have just upgraded to Win 7 64bit and have had a similar problem with getting "Camera Raw editing is not enabled" in Bridge
    I had installed CS4 as a trial whilst I tested that my install of Win 7 was OK
    When I activated CS4 I was using CS4 64 bit and never got the "I have deactivated the software from another machine" question
    I tried lost of things to get Camera Raw editing in Bridge and all failed.
    When I tried CS4 32 bit it wanted to activate the software - it  asked the "I have deactivated the software from another machine" question and then rejected the activation as two PC were using the key.
    I deactivated CS4 from the 64bit side and removed the key
    Then I activated using CS4 32bit - all seems OK now
    Hope this works for you

    Have you opened Photoshop or any other Adobe app that Bridge works with?  You need to do this if you've upgraded PS or just signed up for CC.

    Hi,
    Open Adobe Photoshop first. Open a Camera Raw file in Photoshop.
    Then open Bridge from within Photoshop from File> Browse in Bridge.
    Then try to open Raw files in Bridge. That should work.
    We need to launch the parent product of Bridge first ( in this case Photoshop). Then we need to open the images in Bridge and it should work normally. 
    Thank you,

  • Camera Raw Editing is not enabled strikes again

    Hello everyone, I've always open raw files from bridge in ACR, since last evening, suddenly, while I am trying to open an image in  camera raw I keep getting an error message that  reads " Camera Raw editing is not  enabled.  Camera Raw editing required that a qualifying product  has been launched at least once to enable this feature." At last I cannot open files in ACR from Bridge at all. After a search in the net I've seen that it seems to be a rather common trouble but none of the solutions I've found (I've read of all in this forum) works for me. Did someone found a final solution to it? Im going crazy traying to understand what is that qualifying product in the message.
    Regards
    Marco

    FWIW, this has happened to me twice as a result of a nightmare computer upgrade. I had to change my motherboard and CPU several times and twice, these different combinations caused Adobe activation to become confused. I got an error about number of activations exceeded and also this error about Camera Raw editing is not enabled. How I solved it:
    a) Called Adobe Support who were able to reset the number of activations, activated Creative Suite.
    b) Exit all open Adobe applications and restart them, it worked.
    This is a minor varation on the previous user's comment, where deactivation/activation worked. I believe that Adobe Support did the deactivation.
    It would be nice if Adobe activation were smarter; I've only ever had one computer, never two and certainly never three.

    No, because I know nothing about your setup. 
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.

  • Getting message that says: Camera Raw Editing is not enabled

    When trying to open a jpg file in Camera Raw I am getting a message that says I first need to launch a qualifying product. Formerly (CS4) I had no problem opening a jpg file in Camera Raw, but now on the Cloud using CS 6 there seems to be a problem. Anyone else having this problem or know how to solve it? Thanks.

    I found the solution of this problem.
    1 Open bridge cs 6
    2 Go to Edit - Preferences - File Type Associations
    3 Select Canon Camera Raw
    4 In the dropdown menu browse for Photoshop CS 6
    It appears that the default seeting is explorer settings.
    That means in my case the exploroer settings was ACDsee
    Please see the screen shot
    Hope this helps

    Hello,
    I selected the link for ACR 8.4.1 for Photoshop CC for Windows and downloaded the setup.zip file and then extracted to my local drive.
    When I try to run the patch installer, it says this update is not applicable and just immediately stops.
    Thanks,

  • When I choose camera raw in bridge I get a Camera Raw editing is not available!

    Hi
    When I choose camera raw with the circular icon in the top right hand corner of the bridge CS6 layout I get a warning saying 'Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camerea Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature.' I have tried launching bridge in all the other Adobe products,uninstalling all trial versions from my computer and reinstalling all adobe cloud products, but still this warning comes up and I can't open jpeg and till images with Camera Raw as I did with CC5. Help please!!

    I see that this issue was posted in the Bridge forum here http://forums.adobe.com/message/4790707#4790707.

  • Camera Raw editing not enabled

    I had to do a system restore only to find on return that
    I get a message saying  "Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camera Raw
    editing requires that a qualiftyjing product has been launched at least once to enable this
    feature"
    I can open and work on my ORF's via the mini bridge but not the big one, very frustrating. Can anyone help please without me having to reinstall the whole of CS5?
    Thank you in advance,
    RonB

    Hi Curt,
    I did the uninstall, run the adobe script cleaner and re-install the whole CS5 suite. I even uninstalled all my other adobe software such as the flash player and the acrobat reader to make sure that there are no other parent application to run but I still get the same error message.
    I can also send to you the log of the adobe cleaner if needed. I encountered an error when I run it first but I followed the instructions to manually delete the folder in the path: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe/OOBE
    Then after I deleted the folder I rerun the cleaner and found no other items related to the CS5 suite.
    After that, I re-installed the C5 suite, updated it to the current ones you have in the website. Then I restarted my computer. Then I opened PS first and from there I opened Bridge. When I try to open an image directly to camera raw from Bridge or copy the settings of an image it still gave the errir message indicated above.
    I'm sure I am not the only one encountering this problem thus it would really help a lot if we can find a resolution to this issue since the CS5 suite is really a good application, a cut above the rest, except for thisparticular issue.
    Thank you very much for your continued assistance.

  • Camera Raw Editing

    To clarify:
    I choose several images in bridge (DNG) and choose open in camera raw so I can mass edit.  An error appears  saying, "Camera Raw Editing is not enabled.  What should I do?

    Curt Y:
    Thank you for all your help.  After the last email I did get the Camera raw multiple selection to work.  I was able to perform the function in CS3 but after all my fooling around the selection for the open in camera raw disappeared.  So on a whim I just selected multiple images and chose "open with"> adobe Photoshop CS5 (default).  It works.
    I also downloaded the plug-in for the Picture package.  It appears the Picture Package is not available for CS5 only the contact sheet.  So I have resigned myself to opening CS3 and printing that way.
    Sincerely,
