How do I copy Camera RAW defaults to another computer?

I use Photoshop CS6 and Adobe Camera RAW to process RAW files (D700).  I have ACR preferences set to make the defaults ASA specific, which means I have 41 defaults for ACR.  I have a folder of images shot with the D700 that includes one image for each ASA the camera can select when auto ASA is activated in the D700, that's where I get 41 ASA values.  I use the images in this folder to set a default for each ASA value and then select one at a time in Camera RAW and click to set a new default for ACR (Adobe Camera RAW).  These defaults are saved in some location on the computer, but I don't know where.  I would like to copy these saved defaults to another computer that is also running Photoshop CS6.  Does anyone know where the defaults are located, or is there a better way to accomplish this task?

If I understand what you said, I think this will only save RAW Defaults for that specific image conditions.  I have the RAW converter set to make it specific to image ASA and for the D700 it can set 41 different ASA values for the image.  I have 41 Camera RAW Defaults for the D700 and would like to transfer all to the second computer, that's the reason I am looking for options to accomplish this task. 
I have a folder with 41 D700 NEF files with each having a different ASA value.  I select this folder of images in Camera RAW, adjust each image to the defaults I want - the main difference is noise settings.  When I have the settings I want, I click the Done button.  I then open the images again in Camera RAW, select one at a time and select the "Save New Camera Raw Defaults".  Now when I open new NEF files for the D700 it will automatically apply the Default I want based on the image ASA. 
I currently copy the folder with the 41 images that was saved with the defaults I want and open them one at a time and save a new default on the second computer.  If I copy the "Camera RAW" folder it should give me all the same defaults, custom camera profiles, custom curver, settings, etc. 
I have not tried this yet, but if it works it will save a lot of time keeping the two computers in sync relative to these parameters.

    How can I install camera raw on to my computer.  I have CS5 but no separate camera raw application ? Thank you

    Camera Raw is not a separate application that can be identified and used separately from Photosho. It is a plug-in that is accessed from Photoshop or Bridge or Photoshop Elements. When you attempt to open a raw image the plug-in is activated if it is able to recognize the files created by the camera you used. However, support must be provided for every individual camera model. Updates must be provided with this new support. The latest version of Camera Raw that can be used with Photoshop CS5 is Camera Raw 6.7. You can find out what version of Camera Raw is installed by going to the help menu in Photoshop and then clicking on plug-ins->Camera Raw. If the version that is reported is older than 6.7 then you can click on help->updates and obtain an installation of the last version of Camera Raw you can use. If your camera is newer than what was supported in Camera Raw 6.7 then you will have to use the DNG converter or purchase Photoshop CS6, or subscribe to the creative cloud photography plan ($9.99/month).

    HELP. ............Hi folks hope some one can help me please.Having a problem in Bridge I open my images in ACR,  as I open files in a folder and lets say they are labeled in yellow  they are all going back to  the camera raw default , in other words no matter what work I have done, inc cropping they  all go back to ,as they came out of camera. What on earth is happening? I am on PS CS6. I might point out everything was working normally up to  yesterday, when this first started.
    I recently changed computer to 64bit from 32bit, not sure if this causing  the problem or not. Any help would be appreciated.

    Robert,

    Also please give exact versions of Photoshop CS6 (13.what.what), of Bridge and of your OS.
    Thanks.

  • How do I stop camera raw adjusting contrast and brightness automatically when I open any image

    Every time I open in image in camera raw or Photoshop it is applying an automatic contrast and brightness setting. I have tried resetting to defaults with cntrl shft del but it doesn't make a difference. It also when I just flick through thumbnails on bridge. The pics look almost like they have a cartoon like filter on them!!any ideas on how I get it all back to normal it's been great in the past . I use cs3

    Short answer, learn how to use the tool...
    As for the "auto" adjustments, are you sure that's what's happening or are the images changing based on the differences between what the camera preview and the Camera Raw preview look like? If you have indeed somehow turned on the "Auto" adjustment and saved that out as a Camera Raw default, you can go into the Camera Raw flyout menu and choose the option to Reset Camera Raw Defaults. If however you are talking about the inherent differences between the way your camera renders raw and the way Camera Raw renders it, that's an entirely different discussion...
    As for your other question, try rephrasing it as it doesn't mean a thing to me so I have no idea how to answer...

  • Why can't I save camera raw defaults?

    I am currently unable to reset my camera raw defaults in CS5 (Camera raw 6.5).  When I click on "Save Camera Raw Defaults", the changes do not show up when I open up a new image using Adobe Bridge. I seem to be stuck with the changes I made some time ago. What could be happening?

    Camera Raw uses the same settings you used last time to open a file.  That's just the way it works.  The defaults you set will be used on any image you haven't opened before.
    In order to revert an image that's been opened before to the new defaults, you need to do one of the following:
    1.  Choose Camera Raw Defaults from the menu:
    2.  Depending on how you have configured Camera Raw to remember your past settings, either delete the sidecar XMP files or go into Edit - Preferences - Camera Raw... and purge your Camera Raw cache if you'd like to throw away all previous settings and have future opens use your new defaults.

  • Camera Raw Defaults & Presets not showing menus (BRIDGE)

    Hi There
    I just upgraded to a new version of PS CS3 & Bridge and the option to apply Presets, or to Apply Camera Raw Defaults is not showing when I right click a file in Bridge. It also doesnt show up in the menu. I need to be able to Batch process hundreds of photos at a time and then convert them to Tif formats. I used to be able to do this by applying my Adobe Camera Defaults to many images at once. How do I do this now????
    I am running Bridge 2.0.0975 and PS 10. Help!! This is critical for me!!!
    thanks so much!

    > Even if old versions are available for download, having older versions available on disk in case of malfunction is a perfectly acceptable practice.
    > This applies to any update of any software.
    Agreed. I have gigabytes of disk space packed full of iso's, dmgs, and zips for
    (almost) all of the software I've installed on my computers. It's a pain to
    manage sometimes, but I know I can go back and reinstall PS7 (for instance) if I
    need to even though I have no clue where the CD is at. It's just one part of my
    configuration management and backup strategy. I don't have a sysadmin to take
    care of this kind of thing for me any more, unfortunately, so I have to do it
    myself.
    This plan also has the advantage that I don't have to be online to download
    older versions from a vendors site (if it's even available) or go searching for
    a seeded torrent (if it's not).
    I'm not saying this approach is good for every one or even good for anyone but
    me, but it is a perfectly valid way of doing things.

  • Camera raw default does not remove crop

    In bridge, when I go to edit>develop settings>camera raw defaults, the crop is not removed to get me back to default. How do we rectify this? That makes me open any cropped raw in raw dialogue and manually remove the crop. No good.

  • Camera raw defaults

    Hi, I have been trying things out in camera raw in cs5.5 extended and I cant work out how to reset the default settings. Every time I open an image in raw everything is obviously wrong. Can anyone please help?

    Welcome to the forum!
    According to a handy excerpt from the book Camera Raw Controls, the "Default control" (circled in red in the image below) "provides a simple way to return to the Camera Raw Default settings in the Basic panel based on your current Default settings (which can be changed)."
    And here's a great introductory video on the version of Camera Raw that shipped with Photoshop CS5:

  • How do I access camera raw from withing Lightroom

    Bear with me as I am new at this. I am trying lightroom and have read several reviews of 1.1 and Camera Raw 4.1. I read Martin Evening's update on 1.1 and he has a whole section on using CR to make adjustments to the raw file.
    I imported several raw images in nef and dng formats into lightroom. I cannot see any way to open Camera Raw from any of the menues in lightroom. Could someone tell me how I get to Camera Raw 4.1 from within lightroom?
    I have no problem accessing the image in Camera Raw from Bridge. It was my understanding that you do not need Bridge, just Lightroom to use Camera Raw.

    ACR operates as a plugin within Photoshop or Photoshop Elements and does not operate on its own.
    Lightroom is a separate software program which incorporates the ACR conversion processes for working with raw files. It does not require your having Photoshop installed on your computer.
    I think Adobe has created a lot of the confusion in re naming the program "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom" from the earlier name of "Adobe Lightroom" since it is not a part of Photoshop.

  • How do I access Camera Raw Plug-in for PSE 11?

    I can't figure out how to access the Camera Raw plug-in for Photoshop Elements 11 ( on a Macbook Pro OSX.)  I recently installed  PSE 11, and when I select "about plug-in" within the app, it brings up a box that shows version 7.1.0.354.  Does that mean it's already installed?  If so, how do I access it to edit a photo? In past PSE versions I simply chose "Open file / as Camera Raw" but that option doesn't come up.

    In the File Open dialog ensure you have All Readable Documents selected for Enable.
    Click on the file you want to open
    Change the Format to Camera Raw
