Camera RAW unable to read Nikon NEF files from D3X

I have just purchased a Nikon D3X and unable to open the Nikon NEF files with Photoshop
Mac OSX10.4 Photoshop CS4
I contacted Nikon support & was advised to instal ACR 5.2
downloaded the update Camera RAW v5.2 and installed as instructed after removing old plug in & clearing cache. Still wont open NEF files
I note on the Nikon website that the cameras supported by Camera RAW include D3 but not D3X

>Mac OSX10.4
Make certain that is OS 10.4.11.
>contacted Nikon support & was advised to install ACR 5.2
Some support!
As Jao said, you need ACR 5.3.

Camera raw does not read D7100 nef files [was:Ernied]

Camera raw does not read d7100 nef files. did update...still no success.

I suspect that the DNG converter will work for you if you use it properly. It isn't your fault, but Adobe has created a kind of a silly interface in the DNG converter. Notice that it is asking you for the folder. When you are browsing for a location within the DNG converter, choose the folder, but don't open the folder. If you do then the DNG converter will tell you there are no images to convert. If you choose the folder then the DNG converter will convert all the files within that folder.

How can I Sharing Nikon NEF files from Mac to Windows

I want to share Nikon NEF and TIFF files between Mac book pro and Windows 7 computers, is this possible and how can I do it ?

Thanks Shootist007,
I am planning to buy a MacBook Pro, my main computer runs under windows 7.
On both computers Photoshop CS6 installed, so this will do the trick?
Photoworks.
Yes Certainly. PS has been reading Nikon NEF files for YEARS. The only problem you may run into is with the Newest Nikon cameras. That is if you have the newest Nikon. That is until Adobe updates Adobe Camera RAW to support the newer Nikon cameras.

Pls help. My Camera Raw, CS6 and Lightroom won't read the NEF files from D610.

I recently upgraded to Nikon D610 and the NEF files were not readable from my old version of Camera Raw, CS6 and Lightroom. So downloaded the recommended upgrades and I now have Camera Raw 8.4.0.199; Lightroom 5.3; CS6 13.01. But still did not read my D610 NEF's. Please help. Thanks.

oh wait, i got it. Just in case for those who will have the same scenario. I downloaded the NEF files from my D610 using the old ViewNX 2.1 software and that was the cause of incompatibility. So i upgraded my ViewNX to 2.9 and downloaded my images again. And it worked this time.

Purchased new camera nikon d7100 and camera raw will not open any nef files, talked to tech support and they assured me an update would fix issue, did update and have same issue still

I have photoshop cs5 and after purchasing a nikon d7100, photoshop will not open any of the nef files like it did with my nikon d90, I contacted support and they assured me after update that issue would be resolved...still not resolved, any suggestions?

Good day!
Please check this list to see which version of ACR supports the camera:
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Then please check your version (Photoshop > About Plug-In > Camera Raw).
As you should see your version is not up to the task.
You can either buy a license for a more current version of Photoshop (CS6 is still available) or switch to the … Cloud License model or use the free DNG Converter.

Lightoom 4.4, Camera raw 7.4 and D800E NEF files

I am trying to get a NEF files made on a Nikon D800E to Import to Lightroom 4.4 with Camera raw 7.4. I get an error that states the following files were not imported because they could not be read.
I can import them to Photoshop CS6 and use them in photoshop but cannot find any way to get them into Lightroom. For a while my photos were partially importing and some NEF files werent on the first few tries (but subsequently did). I have updated LR, updated Camera RAW, updated the MAC operating system, and have a newer version of PS (CS6). I have tried from the camera directly and through a card reader with multiple cards but nothing works. Help!

If you are doing a Copy or Move Import method, the “could not be read” means the DESTINATION folder in your Import panel is not writable, and so when LR tries to read the files after it has copied them to the destination, it cannot.

Lightroom 3.6 Camera Raw 6.6 - Issues with NEF files

Hello all,
I'm sure I'm not the only person with this problem, I'm a Nikon user and when I view NEF files in Lightroom 3, before the images loads completely it looks like it did on my camera but when the loading phase is done the picture darkens and it changes, sometimes darkens, sometimes changes tones.. What is happening here and is there any way around this with NEF files? I love Lightroom but if I can't work with NEF the way they look on my camera then I'm going to have to make the switch over to Capture NX 2 and I really don't want to.... In addition I have no problems with JPEG files so I know the issue is isolated to NEF files. I'm also on a Mac with 10.6.7 if that makes any difference.. not sure it does though.
Please help!!

This is not just a characteristic of NEF files. Adobe software and other third party software does not read the in camera settings, instead it applies default settings. The initial image you see is probably the stored image that was processed by the camera, but it is replaced by the image rendered using the defaults from Lightroom. The default camera profile is Adobe Standard, which does not match what you get from the camera. Adobe has generated Camera matching profiles for Nikon and Canon cameras and a few others. Go to Camera Calibration and select the same profile you have selected in the camera - it will have a name like Camera Standard, Camera Neutral, etc. If you have other parameters set to nominal in the camera, this will be a close match to the JPG from the camera. You can set a new default for Lightroom that will use the setting you select and it will use this when any new NEF files are first opened. If you want the NEF file to open identical to the JPG from the camera then Nikon software is the only option. If you were using a Canon, then Canon software would be the only option.

My Photoshop CS5 is not reading my NEF files from my Nikon D610.

I'm also not able to update my Camera Raw. I have a MAC and I'm using Mavericks OS.

That is correct. Support for the D610 was added to ACR 8.3 and Lightroon 5.3. Yon need to download Adobe DNG 8.6 converter and create DNG files for your NEF files to use CS 5 older ACR version. The latest version of ACR the works with CS5 is ACR version 6.7

Camera Raw won't open certain JPG files from Bridge, others open in ACR with no problem.

Edit: This was orignally posted in the Photoshop > Macintosh forum, which I failed to realize was read only. Thanks to a PM headsup, I'm reposting it here. Thanks
I've searched the internet and the Adobe forums and cannot find a direct answer to what I'm dealing with.
The issue I am having is that Bridge CS5 (current version 4.0.5.11) will open some JPG images in Raw with no problem and others nothing happens at all. All the images come from the same source (Fujifilm Frontier SP2000) so I really don't understand why Bridge ignores some of them as being openable in RAW. For example, say this roll of film has 36 images. If I "Select All", right click, and select "Open in Camera Raw", it will open whichever it deems acceptable in RAW and nothing happens at all to the others (The RAW dialog will, for instance, only open 10 images instead of all 36, and the remaining images are not altered in any way).
I've made sure that Photoshop is prefering Adobe Camera Raw with Supported Raw Files and in Camera Raw Preferences I have the box ticked to Automatically open JPGs with Settings but nothing helps.
My work around is to one file at a time in the Photoshop Open dialog, selecting an affected JPG file and have it open them as Camera Raw instead of Jpeg.
Any ideas? It's done this for quite a while and I have no idea how to fix it.
Thanks.
Cary

Unable to read a resources file from my page

Hi,
I am trying to read a file from the project resources and I can't have access to the physical file. I have the following code in my page:
javax.faces.context.ExternalContext ec = this.getExternalContext();
URL url = ec.getResource("/resources/displayPassengers.xsl");
InputSource inputSourceXSL = new InputSource(url.toExternalForm());
InputStream inpStreamXSL = null;
if (inputSourceXSL.getByteStream() != null) {
log("Loading xml file: " + url.toExternalForm());
inpStreamXSL = inputSourceXSL.getByteStream();
} else {
log("Unable to extract URL from Page context: WEB-INF/displayPassengers.xsl");
The url is not null.
The inputSourceXSL is not null and inputSourceXSL.getByteStream() is always null.
Please let me know how to access the file.
Rgrds.

this should work
InputSource inputSourceXSL = new InputSource(url.openStream());

Unable to read a .gif file from a jar

I have made an application which requires some .gif images.
I packed all the classes and .gif's in a jar file.
I have used no package statement in files, all are in one folder.
While retrieving the .gif file from the jar I have used..
Image img1 = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(ClassLoader.getSystemResource("Lock.gif"));
ImageIcon i1=new ImageIcon(img1,"No Users");
but this does not works and throws nullpointer exception.
I have also tried getClass().getResource() etc.
But none of the methods are working..
Plz. help.
Nimesh

Is the class that is loading the image contained in a package? If the resource name does not start with a forward slash, it is interpreted as relative to the package of your class(when doing getClass().getResource())

I get a message saying that Camera Raw does not support my camera type but it always has in the past. The bridge no longer shows the picture view of my NEF files. These are Nikon NEF files from the Nikon 5100 DSLR camera. How do I fix this?

When you re-installed Photoshop, you also re-installed the version of Camera Raw which shipped with Photoshop - in other words you reverted to an older version of Camera Raw which does not support the D5100.

The D5100 was first supported in Camera Raw version 6.4.

Not able to process NEF files from the new Nikon D4s camera, any idea on when a new RAW plug-in?

Current CS6/Cloud user but have not been able to process my NEF files from the new Nikon D4s camera. Any idea on when and if a patch or new plug-in supporting this camera will be available?

Support for the Nikon D4S has been added to the forthcoming Camera Raw 8.4 which is currently in a late stage beta (formally called Release Candidate).
