Can't open ABR brush file in Photoshop CS6. Any solutions.

Hello,
I downloaded a set of brushes as an ABR file, pasted it into the 'brush' folder in the 'presets' folder, but when I try to load my brushes I can't see any ABR files in my brushes folder.
Does anyone have any ideas?
I'd be so grateful if anyone can help.

If you are using Windows, did you place them in the 32 bit Program Files (x86) folder or the 64 bit Program Files folder?
Place them in here
C:\Users\Your Name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Presets\Brushes
so both versions can see them.

  • I can't open D7200 NEF file with Photoshop CS6. I checked the updates and there are no updates available. What do I do?

    Hi,
    I can't open D7200 NEF files with Photoshop CS6.I checked the updates and there are no updates available.What do I do?
    Nitin

    For the time being, shoot JPEG images. At this time there is no support for NEF files from the D7200 in any Adobe product. It was released at such a time that it wasn't included in the last Camera Raw update. And Lightroom hasn't been updated either. Consequently, there is no DNG converter available at this time. We will have to wait and see what programs will be able to accommodate the D7200 when Adobe releases updates or upgrades that support the camera.

  • Can't open Canon Cr2 file in Photoshop CS6

    I purscahed PShop CS6 Upgrade a few days ago as an upgrade for the full CS4 Extended (which was upgraded to CS5 last year).  I installed CS6 as an upgrade to the installed and registered CS5. 
    Neither Bridge CS6 nor Photoshop CS6 will read Canon Cr2 raw files, and the "About Photoshop" splash screen indicates my purchased CS6 is a Beta version. 
    What has gone wrong?  Should I uninstall CS5 and CS6, reinstall CS4 and then apply the CS6 upgrade to CS4?
    Thanks

    Hi Chris
    Thanks for the reply.  My reply is a bit delayed from time zones - I
    live in Australia & had to go out to do some work.
    My CS6 upgrade was bought from the Adobe Store Australia on May 10.     
    Order number is:  AD003318323AU
    The downloadsI got on May 10 seemed to cause the problem.  I had trouble
    with the Akamai option but used a second option to get CS6 in 2 files -
    the small exe and the big zipped file.  The small exe wouldn't unzip the
    main file so I unzipped it manually and installed from that, and somehow
    or other I finished up with the beta version.  I'd never installed the
    beta version before this, but the "About Photoshop" splash screen made
    it obvious that I had it then.
    When I got home a while ago I ran the Adobe download process again and
    this time it worked, and file sizes and date last modified etc were
    different in today's download.  I deactivated the first CS6, uninstalled
    it, ran Adobe Creative Suite Cleanser Tool and reinstalled from todays
    downloaded files.  My new CS6 is the correct & current version.
    Adobe will probably have another confused customer somewhere who did
    what I did at about the same time and got the beta version instead of
    the real program.
    The CR2 files I couldn't open were from a Canon G1X.  My Canon 5D Mk2
    files opened properly.
    Thanks again

  • Just upgraded to 10.8.4 and now can't open canon raw files in photoshop cs5 with camera raw plug in 6.7

    i've just upgraded to os 10.8.4 and now i can't open canon raw files in photoshop cs5 with camera raw plug in 6.7 which worked perfectly prior to the upgrade....anyone else encountered this issue?

    Adobe's software is a mess in terms of the fact that it's sprayed all over the place and may not survive an OS upgrade.  Try reinstalling Photoshop CS5.

  • Cannot open my NEF files in Photoshop CS6 from my new Nikon D800 camera.

    That's it, I Cannot open my NEF files in Photoshop CS6 Camera Raw from my new Nikon D800 camera. What am I doing wrong or what is wrong? I have the plug-in Camera Raw 7. and can open TIFF files but not the NEF files.
    Peace,
    Charles Fennen

    Hi ssprengel,
    to explain the scenario, i am basically a D7000 user and I do post production with Windows computer. But for an assignment I have hired D800, they have provided me their SD memory card. I have used the same memory card while shooting.
    I have transferred the NEF files from the camera using Nikon software. The transfer was successful but i am not able to open the Raw NEF file with ACR. Even my plugins are updated till date.
    The NEF thumbnails are having small lock logo in the bottom left corner. I do not know what does that mean. Like this.
    Kindly let me know what would be the prob? if my RAW files are corrupted kindly let me know how will I recover them?
    Thank you.

  • How can I open a cc2014 file in my cs6 version of Indesign ?

    How can I open a cc2014 file in my cs6 version of Indesign ?
    I have several files that has been saved in a cc2014 version and I can't open them in my CS6 version of Indesign.
    I don t have access to anyone who have the cc 2014 version to convert the file.
    How can I do it from my cs6 version?
    THANKS!

    You can't do it from CS6.
    You have to export to IDML from InDesign CC2014 (or whatever the version it was created in) and then open the IDML in the earlier versoin of InDesign.
    All explained in the FAQ on the main forum page.

  • Can't open raw format files in photoshop elements 3.0

    I'm sure this question has been posed here 1,000 times already, and I've just spent over an hour surfing the web, using adobe on-line support, etc. -- too much to sift through, and none of it giving me a simple answer.
    So here's the question:
    - Using Windows XP
    - I have a Nikon D40
    - Photoshop Elements 3.0
    - 2.3 Camera Raw Plug In
    From what I am able to gather, I SHOULD be able to open raw format files using PE 3.0, but I get the various error messages:
    "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document".
    "Could not complete your request because the file-format module cannot parse the file".
    Am I missing some sort of simple step before I start downloading plug-ins I don't need and messing up all the settings on my computer? Any help would be appreciated, and once again, apologies if I'm repeating a question that's been asked a million times before.

    Support for the Nikon D40 was added in Camera Raw version 3.7. So you would need Photoshop Elements 4.0 or later to be able to use that.
    To use your version you may need to download the free DNG converter from http://www.adobe.com/products/dng/ and convert your D40 files from NEF to DNG.

  • Bridge CS6 insist to open Camera raw files via Photoshop CS6 instead of CC

    Hi
    I´ve trying to start using Photoshop CC instead of CS6. The problem is that my Bridge CS6 is opening Camera RAWs to Photoshop CS6 as a default instead of CC. I`ve changed Finder defaults and as well as Bridges own File type assosiations to use Photoshop CC as a default, but still it isnt working. I wouldnt want to delete Photoshop CS6 completely.
    Any help, anyone?

    Which version mac os x are you using?
    If it's mac os x 10.6.8 snow leopard, then post back before installing bridge cc.
    I believe you need to install bridge cc so your camera raw files will open from the camera raw dialog in bridge cc to photoshop cc.
    Also of note is the camera raw version for bridge cs6 doesn't have any of the new features that the bridge cc version of camera raw has.
    If you open the the Creative Cloud Desktop.app, then you should see Bridge CC available for install.

  • Unable to open CR2 photo files in photoshop CS6

    I am not able to open my CR2 files (from a Canon 70D camera) in my Photoshop CS6 via camera raw. The pop up window suggested updates, which I did, and the problem persists. Any suggestions?

    Which operating system are you using?
    You tried Help>Updates from within photoshop cs6 to get the camera raw update, either 8.3 (windows xp and vista and mac os x 10.6.8)  or 9.0 (all other operating systems)

  • Can't view abr brush files in Preset Manager

    My problem in Photoshop CS5 is that I can't see the .abr files using the Preset Manager.
    Specifically, the Load dialog for brushes shows the Adobe Photoshop CS5/Presets/Brushes folder as empty...
    ...even though Windows Explorer displays both the default brushes and the many brushes I just purchased.

    I was under the impression that brushes will only show under preset manager if they were manually loaded into photoshop by selecting Brush then Load Brushes and then selecting the abr file you wanted.  I always save my extra brushes/styles/actions etc under seperate folders away from Photoshop as you can easily direct the Load Brushes etc to where you have them saved and then load from there easily.  And as I have  many of these extras, keeping them seperate from Photoshop saves load up time when starting Photoshop.  Hope this helps

  • I can't open my CR2 files in Photoshop CS5

    I have a Canon and this silly CR2 is really confusing me! Going from an Olympus to this is a TOTALLY different ballpark.
    For those of you to roll your eyes-I have looked through other discussions about this and I can't figure the problem out myself. So please help me if you will! I have checked the Camera RAW setting and I'm certain it's correct. Maybe I'm just missing something else?! Please help! I don't want to convert them all to TIFFs.....

    I thought I looked at the list yesterday and it had mine listed. I have a Canon 70D.
    Yes, it's listed and was first supported by Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 8.2.
    Now do the second step by seeing which version of ACR is compatible with which version of Photoshop.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
    You'll see that Photoshop CS5 is only compatible with ACR 6.0 through 6.7. In other words CS5 will never be able to open Raw files from the 70D (released July 2013) - or any other brand new camera whether Canon or Nikon.
    So you need CS6 or Photoshop CC to open Raw files from the 70D. Or from any other brand new Canon or Nikon.
    This is not a Canon problem. It's a CS5 is out of of date problem and would apply regardless of camera manufacturer. If cameras saved in DNG format, you could still use CS5.
    DNG?! Is that similar to RAW?
    Yes.
    Raw files are proprietary and are specific to camera makes and models.
    DNGs conform to open standards. Adobe created the DNG format to avoid the very problem you're facing now. However the camera manufacturers prefer to stick to their proprietary Raw formats thus forcing Adobe and its customers into this never ending update and upgrade cycle with Camera Raw.

  • Can I open Windows CS3 files in MacIntosh CS6?

    I have Windows Adobe CS3.
    I also have Windows XP and must upgrade to Windows 8.1.  Someone said I must upgrade my Creative Suite because Windows 8.1 uses different drivers.  I also must buy a new computer, printer and scanner.  Is this true?
    If I buy a MacIntosh computer and Creative Suite instead, can I still open my Windows CS3 files?
    Thanks.

    The latest CS6 and CC will both open previous versions of CS 3 files. Platform of origin is irrelevant.
