CS4 Bridge does not open JPEGs in Camera Raw 5.6 which is grey

I downloaded Camera Raw 5.6 onto my iMac (Snow Leopard).   I have an Olympus E-620.   ORFs (raw) open in bridge, but the Camera Raw is greyed out in the file menu.   Also, Camera Raw does not show up under "open with".   My husband has iMac (same configuration) - his Camera Raw 5.6 shows up and he can open up JPEGs in RAW, which I cannot.   I checked his settings against mine - seem to be the same.   Suggestions???

Purge the cache for those folders and if that doesn't work, trash the Preferences for Bridge.

  • In Bridge, can't open jpeg in camera raw

    I have CS3 installed on several computers. On one of them, apparently Bridge and/or Raw never updated to the ability to open a jpeg in Raw. I can do this on the other computers. When I suggest running updates, it says none are needed. I'm confused.
    Mike

    Jim,
    Actually I'd only discovered this feature recently as Bridge was not program of choice - my 7 yr. old system didn't have resources to handle PS and Bridge well simultaneously, having only 512 MB RAM. Was lucky to run Photoshop alone, s_l_o_w_l_y on a P4. This all changed with 4GB RAM and a dual core. What a relief.
    Old system dubbed 'Frankenstein' sits networked in pasture in case of need for XP dependent programs or external bkups which no longer run in Vista without wiping data and reformatting. Fortunately won't need them to thanks to networking the two. Only thing not supported by Camera RAW is .bmp which I'll convert. Files from scans years ago of old photos before understanding formats. Live n' learn.
    Much of the time I use Lightroom in lieu of Bridge, but there are times it comes in handy for quick access. Now that Lightroom 2 works interactively with Photoshop it's made this less necessary, but still have uses for both.
    John~
    You are indeed fortunate Vista is your friend. Must have plenty of RAM to run 64 bit. I on the other hand run 32 and intend to downgrade next fresh install so previous peripheral investments work again. Did not play nicely and Microsoft failed to support their own products, deserving a hall of shame award IMO. Still waiting for MS's next OS, as functional and non functional skip generations with that company.
    Close friend also loves Vista, but couldn't help noticing he runs an XP machine on the side like myself.... hehe just in case for specific needs. I'm sure he wouldn't mind my saying we are both happy for you though. ;^D Whatever works. Each person has different needs as always.

  • How to stop CS4 opening JPEGs in Camera Raw?

    Hi guys,
    I'm hoping someone out there can help.  Recently for some reason CS4 decided it wanted to open all JPEGs in Camera Raw.
    I am trying to restore whatever setting has changed so JPEGs open directly in Photoshop not Camera Raw.
    And before anyone states the obvious yes, I have deselected "Open JPEGs in Camera Raw" under Camera Raw prefs.
    I am on a mac (OS X 10.5.7) and have installed the latest updates for CS4 (Camera Raw is version 5.0.0.178).
    Any (constructive) input would be welcome.  Cheers.

    Generally, once a JPG has been opened in ACR and has an embedded adjustment
    recipe it will continue to be opened in ACR even though you have the
    preference set to not prefer ACR for JPGs.
    Your verbiage is different than what I see for Camera RAW Preferences in ACR
    5.4 on Windows, so maybe you need to update to the latest ACR or maybe Mac
    and PC versions of ACR are different.
    In my CS4 Extended (11.0.1) / Edit / Preferences / Camera RAW preferences
    for ACR 5.4, down at the bottom, you can set JPG and TIFF Handling - JPEG to
    Disable JPEG Support instead of Automatically open JPEGs with Settings to
    make it ignore the settings in JPEG and/or TIFF files.

  • I am running a TRIAL VERSION of Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended and Bridge does not open.  Help?

    I am running a TRIAL VERSION of Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended on MAC and Bridge does not open.  It did open when I first downloaded it - but now a black question mark is over the BR icon and it does not open up.  Any ideas from anyone? 

    Hi Steve -
    I just thought it was interesting and helpful to me to learn that the icon for Bridge does not appear anywhere.  Not in Application Folder.  Not in the Finders Directory Files.  I see your point - if I could locate that icon - I'd be set by dragging it onto my DOCK and launching it from there. 
    So - I'm assuming I need to uninstall CS6.   Please list all the steps for me to uninstall so that I don't miss any CS6 files. 
    When I search in FINDER for CS6 uninstall- I see two icons -  red adobe "UNINSTALL ADOBE PHOTOSHOP CS6" (both files are identical)  Under KIND they both say Alias - with two different dates they were last opened (in November - few minutes apart).  Is that what I use to uninstall completely all the files related to PS CS6 Extended as well as Bridge? 
    Do I need to DEACTIVATE ANYTHING ANYWHERE? 
    DOES ANYTHING NEED TO GO INTO TRASH. 
    I just want to make sure 'everything' related to CS6 Extended is off my computer and out of all the files.  In the event i want to re-install - naturally I don't want to run into any conflicting 'issues'.
    Do you think if I reinstall I will run into this same problem again (BR not launching)?  Is there anything I can do to prevent it?  I note on the forums - going a few years back - that there have been a lot of issues related to this same problem - even in other versions of the Creative Suite.  Is Adobe doing anything to rectify this problem for us Photoshop CS Suite lovers or is all their focus just going into CC? 
    Thank you so much for trying to help me resolve this issue.  It is very frustrating to have an Adobe product that is not completely functional.  Especially when the Creative Suites are so expensive.  I appreciate all the time you've put into this issue.

  • Mini Bridge does not open in InDesign after installing 8.0.2 upgrade

    This question was previously posted in the InDesign forum (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5833991#5833991), but it was suggested that I should cross post it here.
    I installed InDesign CS6 upgrade 8.0.2.  Now I cannot open Mini Bridge.
    If Bridge is not already open,
         - selecting File | Browse in Bridge...  or clicking on the Bridge button: Bridge opens - good!
         - control-click on the Bridge button: I get a Reset Settings error dialog - NOT good!  I cancelled this and Bridge opened fullscreen okay.
         - alt-click on the Bridge button: Two Bridge applications opened fullscreen! - NOT good!
         - shift-click on the Bridge button: Bridge opens, but Mini Bridge does not! - NOT good!
    If Bridge is already open,
         - selecting File | Browse in Bridge... or clicking on the Bridge button: the ruler bars dim and nothing else happens! - NOT good!
         - control-click on the Bridge button: Bridge opens maximized! - good!
         - alt-click on the Bridge button: the already opened Bridge, plus a new Bridge, both open! - is this normal?
         - shift-click on the Bridge button: the ruler bars dim and Mini Bridge does not open! - NOT good!
    I have tried resetting the preferences in Bridge and rebooted after doing so.
    My main concern is that I cannot get Mini Bridge to open at all.  I can ignore the other problems mentioned above, if I can just get Mini Bridge to open.
    This problem does not exist in Photoshop CS6.
    I have restored my C: drive from backup twice and tried the upgrade a total of three times.  The results are the same each time.
    Does anyone have any idea what is causing my problem and how I might correct it?  I am running 64-bit Windows 7 Professional SP1, 3.40 GHz Intel Core i7-3770 CPU, 32.0 GB installed memory.

    Sorry to hear that, forgot to mention the resetting of preferences in InDesign.
    Have you also tried that (ctrlAltShift while starting ID)?
    I'm afraid I have not really more ideas and I am a Mac user and don't know anything relevant about Windows.
    And ultimate you have of course the option to reinstall CS6 after an official uninstall in combination with the Adobe Clean Tool. But before doing so read all instructions and have a proper back up of all relevant customized settings, workspaces etc.

    Hi Peter,
    Just to bring you up to speed on what has happened to this issue, none of the suggestions that I received in the Bridge forum helped.  However, after restoring my C: drive back to prior to my updating attempts, I was able to successfully upgrade InDesign in Safe Mode (this is a Windows startup mode that blocks non-Microsoft applications from starting up on reboot).  Mini Bridge is now working correctly.
    Thank you again for your assistance.

  • Bridge issues:  Bridge does not open.  It can show multiple times in TaskBar but nothing to user

    Issue 1 Bridge does not open.  If you click on the application multiple times in trying to get it to load... it shows the app multiple times in the TASK BAR Manager. 

    Sounds like you may need to restart the computer Braswels.
    Try that and see if it resolves the issue.

  • Get an Error window, The source folder does not contain any supported camera raw files

    I am using CS2 and it would not open up my latest RAW files, I was getting a warning Could not complete your request because it is not the right kinds of document. So, I checked the Camera Raw Plug-in and it says Version 3.7. I see that my camera an Olympus E-20 is supported. But it is not opening the Raw files, the day before I took jpeg and they have opened. I will not trash my Adobe Photoshop CS2 because it was a royal pain to install and I don't know where the CD is.
    I installed the latest DNG Converter and when I try to open up the folder which has all the RAW images that didn't open in Adobe, I still get an Error window that says, "The source folder does not contain any supported camera raw files." Why? It says it supports my Olympus E-20. I actually have the E-20n, I don't think that is the problem. My RAW icons usually show up as small image thumbnails and this time they are gray icons only with the incorrect date under the icon. Is there another product I can use without spending money? These images I took in RAW were special and I don't want to lose them. Please help!
    Esther

    Hello, I was using only CS2 with my Olympus E-20n for 5 years, no problem. It just started acting up in RAW this year. I downloaded Picasa that same day and now it seems to be opening up all of my RAW files that didn't open the other day. So, I think Picasa installed a new plug-in adaption to CS2 because now all my RAW icons have a new logo on them, the same one that's in Picasa. Strange, but it works now and I am not complaining anymore. I love CS2 and the many ways I can adjust RAW files, so I am using it, Picasa is a sideline now that I can take a look at many thumbnails and it organized all my photo files by the year and folders. Amazing free software. I have probably 60,000 images in my computer and an external hard drive and Picasa picked them all up and made a library, cool.

  • How do I open jpegs in Camera Raw?

    I can't seem to find any instruction on how to open jpegs in Camera Raw. It says that it will do it, but I haven't found the way to do it. Command R is never highlighted when I'm in Bridge and click on a jpeg. Help!
    Thank you,
    Gregg

    I am encountering the same problem in Bridge. Although I marked the preference to open jpeg in Camera Raw. Everytime SC3 opens with the picture.
    In early July I folowwed a thread discussing the same problem - without solution. Could it be that this is a bug in Bridge and hopefully Adobe is working on an update?

  • Procedure for opening jpegs in Camera RAW

    I am helping a friend who is running Elements 6 on an iMac.  I can't seem to find the setup which will allow him to open jpegs in Camera RAW.
    I know this must be simple but I'm having trouble.  Thanks for your help.
    Mary Lou

    Barbara, while I have your attention, one of my struggles is that my students are partly working on a Mac and some on a PC and Elements isn't identical on both platforms.
    I frequently use the slideshow in Bridge on my Mac.  I took the time to watch a tutorial in Elements 7 working from Organizer.  It has so many more options than slideshow on a Mac.  Can PC users access it from the Organizer even if they aren't currently using the Organizer?  I normally teach students to control their downloads by placing images in specific folders, either in Pictures or on an external hard drive.  Will the Organizer still be available for viewing a folder of images stored elsewhere?
    Thanks,
    Mary Lou

    Even though I have checked "Automatically open all supported TIFF's" in Camera RAw Preferences - My tiff files do not open up in camera RAW - PS 6

    Sorry I'm taking to along, but I checked a few things using ACR 8.6
    Saved a png as an 8 bit tiff, then to 16 bit. Changed the background layer into a floating layer, all opened in ACR.
    It was when I added an adjustment layer, that it no longer opened in ACR.
    Now what can I recommend? If you have Lightroom, you can Import and work on your layered tiffs that way. I hope this is a viable alternative for you, because I think ACR does have a problem with layered tiffs and I don't really know of any workaround, but you are free to explore.
