Cannot open CR2 files from Canon T4i with Photoshop CS5

Please help

tienstran,
Don't hold your breath.  You will NEVER be able to  open raw files from a Digital Rebel T4i EOS 650D EOS Kiss X4i directly in CS5.
There wil not be any further updates for CS5, ever.  The last version of ACR that will ever run with CS5 is ACR 6.7.1, and you are correct that you need at least ACR 7.1 (or higher) to open your files.
On the other hand, you are wrong about support for your camera in the free Adobe DNG Converter.  All versions of the Adobe DNG Converter form 7.1 and up—including the Adobe DNG Converter 8.1—do support your camera model.
Once a version of either ACR or the Adobe DNG Converter supports a given camera model, all subsequent versions will continue to support it.
So, go and download the Adobe DNG Converter 8.1 and convert your raw Canon files to raw DNG files that you can now open in any version of ACR that will run with CS5.
Remember:  the Adobe DNG Converter works on folders containing your raw files, it does not see the individual files in the folder.  You must point the Adobe DNG Converter to the folder itself, not the files.

  • Cannot open raw files from canon 6d in photoshop cs6 or lightroom 4

    I just bought a canon 6d but now the files are not opening in lightroom or photoshop. is there a plug in or something I can use to make these work?

    The Canon 6D has been supported since LR 4.3 and PS-CS6/ACR 7.3 so you may need to update.
    You can find LR updates on this page:
    http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
    You should be able to update to ACR 8.7.1 via Help / Updates in PS’s menus.
    Or if that doesn't work, you can download the ACR 8.7.1 installer from here:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/camera-raw-plug-in-installer.html
    Unless you’re still running an older OS, like Windows Vista or earlier or OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, then you’ll need the ACR 8.3 installer from here:

  • I can open RAW files from my camera in photoshop cs5, but they dont save properly after editing

    I can open RAW files from my camera in photoshop, but then after I have edited, i save as .raw, and open up the newly saved file and it just comes up as a grey messed up picture.  What am I doing wrong?

    I thought that it was preferrable to do editing on RAW files rather than TIFF for highest image quality.
    Yes, it is preferable to do as much editing on the raw files as you can including global and local tone & color correction in Camera Raw...but there is a limit to the work you can do and sometimes you must go ahead and render the raw file into Photoshop for additional work. Then you'll be needing layers and other functionality that can't be done on a raw file. At that point you'll need to save as a TIFF or PSD. If you work in 16 bit and a large enough color space, the TIFF or PSDs will still be capable of the highest quality...as others have indicated, the Photoshop .raw file format ain't for photography per se.

  • PSE 11 won't open CR2 files from Canon PowerShot G15.

    I was interested in PSE 11 so I could use ACR 7.x to open the raw (CR2) files from my new Canon PowerShot G15 camera--but even after updating the files, PSE 11 won't recognize my camera!  It's still not listed in the group of supported cameras on the Adobe website(s).  This camera has been out for a few months (at least!), so it's unbelievable that Adobe still won't support those files.  They only go through the G12, not up to G15.

  • Updated to latest ACR 6.6 but still can't open CR2 files from Canon Rebel XSi

    I updated to latest version of Adobe Camera Raw 6.6 but still can't seem to open my CR2 files in Photoshop. Can't open them in Lightroom either, no preview in Bridge or OS.
    I'm running OS 10.7.2 and Photshop 12.1 x 64 which is CS5.1 I suppose.
    I've downloaded Canon's EOS utility hoping that would somehow do something as well but nothing.
    The images were shot on Canon Rebel XSi which is certainly supported by the newest version of ACR. So I have no clue as to what's happening... I previously downloaded these images onto my old laptop about a year ago and everything was fine, however now I'm not even getting a preview in OS. Do I have to revert to an older version of ACR (perhaps the same one I used originally?) to open these files again? These files have been stored on a hard drive, so I'm not downloading them directly from the camera-again, this probably has nothing to do with it but not sure what to do. A lot of the posts I've seen recommend downloading the latest version of ACR to fix the issue, but again I've done that and as a matter of fact the camera (Rebel XSi) has been supported for some time now...
    In OS, when the image is selected no preview:
    Lightroom error:
    Bridge, no preview:
    Photoshop error:
    Ideas, suggestions?

    Something appears to be wrong with your files.
    Are most of your images approx. 3.7 MB?
    This is very small for a 12 MP image.
    If you go back to the original file on your laptop, what is the file size?
    Also the fact that the Mac OS is not showing the preview is unusual.
    Perhaps these files got corrupted when they were moved to your new computer.
    Can you open these files OK on your old laptop?
    Is the OS showing the previews on your old laptop?
    Also compare the file sizes between old and new computer.
    Have you tried repairing your permissions?
    Try Disk Utility in your Macs Applications - Utilities - Disk Utility to see if this helps.
    Good Luck!

  • Cannot open CR2 files from T5i in Photoshop CS5.5

    I have talked with Apple. These files can be brought in to iphoto and then exported. This is not what I want to do. I want to open in Camera Raw. Is there a workaround with a converter for CS5.5? I see there is Camera Raw 8.1 available. From what I have read, it is only for CS6 or CC - forcing me to upgrade? Then, according to some posts, the Camera Raw update 8.1 is buggy and does not work as well as previous versions. Can somebody shed some light on this for me? I really don't want to re-iinstall, uninstall, flush cache, look for fixes, etc, etc.
    Is there a converter or plugin that works with CS5.5? my original question.
    thank you

    Your Canon T5i requires ACR 7.4 which is only available for CS6
    You can download the latest version of DNG - Digital Negative Converter 8.1 which can convert files from newer cameras to DNGs that can then be opened in PS CS5.5
    Make sure you get the DNG converter 8.1 NOT the ACR 8.1
    This is a stand alone application, so you need to start it and then point it to a FOLDER that contains your files.
    It works on folders. It does not convert individual files.

    Hi, I can't open my RAW files from my Canon 1000D in Photoshop and Lightroom cc (trial version) Also the DNG converter doesn't recognize the CR2 files. When I check the list with supported camera's the 1000D is there so it should be working. Anyone knows how to fix this? Thanks!

  • DNG raw plug in 8.2 cannot open raw files from canon camera S120

    After downloading DNG raw plug in 8.2 for CS5 for the new Canon S120 camera, the raw file still cannot be open
    Can someone help

    Right, ACR 8.3 is for cs6 and cc; it will not work as a plugin update in CS5.  You should download the 8.3 DNG converter stand alone program from
    http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates.html
    then use it to convert folders of your new S120 cr2 raw files to folders of dng files, which can be processed in your cs5 by acr 6.7 (latest cs5 release).

  • I cannot open CRW files from Canon 6D in PS6 (Cloud)

    The app manager shows it has updates and when I start the update it tells me to quit app manager which in turn terminates the update download.
    Advice?

    Yes PS CS6 will open Canon 6D raw file. It just that you need to make sure you have at-least ACR 7.3 installed. You can check it from Help->About Plug-in->Camera Raw
    If you have the older version, then you can install the latest one i.e. ACR 7.4 using the Photoshop updates. Help->Updates
    Hope that Helps!

    Updates did not install a version of ACR that would handle the files. I found the link to ACR 8.7 on another thread, but it wouldn't install on Snow Leopard.

    Fortunately I had an available install of Lion, and that did the trick -- ACR 8.7 is now installed and I can see my images! Thanks for your help.

  • Photoshop Elements 10. Cannot open .cr2 files (Canon 650D)

    Running win 7. Latest version camera raw is 6.7. It will not open .cr2 files from Canon 650d. Adobe says need camera raw 7.1 which supports 650d. Cannot update Elements 10 with 7.1 as it is not for this software.
    How do i open cr2 files?

    You have two alternatives:
    (1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.4
    Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.4
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

    I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

    Canon 1DX support was added to ACR in version 6.7, 7.1.  An updated CS6 should be at level ACR 8.6.  If your ACR is not at level 8.6 try using CS6 menu Help>Updates.  If that does not install ACR 8.6 try downloading the ACR and DNG 8.6 converter and see if ACR 8.6 will install into your CS6.

  • How to open *.CR2 files from new 60D ??

    My Elements 7 will not open or recognize CR2 files from my new 60D.  Nor will it allow me to open CR2 files in another format.  I get error messages saying they are "the wrong type of file" or that a codec is missing.  It opens CR2 files from my two Rebels just fine.  I have downloaded the most recent codec (1.7.0) I can find from Canon to no avail.  I downloaded a trial version of Elements 9 - same problem.  Am I doing something incorrectly?
    Thanks, JackM

    Well, after downloading - and purchasing - PE9, and downloading ACR 6.2, am still having the same problem; not recognizing the 60D CR2 files.  I have actually downloaded the 6.2 several times, with and without unzipping and extracting files, to no effect.  I will try calling Adobe Monday to see what the heck is going on.  This is extremely disappointing.
    I may have to resort to use DPP for raw conversion, save as a TIFF, then open in PE for editing (this does work).  If that's my only option, I hope Adobe will refund my purchase price.  I'll try to keep you updated on what happens.
    Thanks for your help.
