How do I open RAW files in CS6?

Hi sorry if this has been posted before but I dont really know what im doing on here. I was wondering how i can open my RAW files in photoshop to edit them. Do I need a plug in? If so which one and how would I go about installling it. My camera is a Canon 500d that the RAW files are coming from.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
Have you copied the images from your camera to your computer?
After that in photoshop, you should just be able to go to File>Open, pick one of the camera raw files from your camera and camera raw dialog should open.
When your done in camera raw, press the Open button to open the photo into photoshop.

  • Opening Raw files in CS6 from Olympus OM D   EM1

    Can anyone advise How I can open raw files from OMD  EM1 camera.  I ran updates from Help menu in CS6 but it still wont open them.

    You need at least ACR 8.3 for that camera model.
    What version of ACR do you have now?  Help / About Plug-ins / Camera Raw will tell you.
    If Help / Updates doesn’t install anything, then you may be able to use the manual installers, here:

    The Nikon D4S is a brand new camera which has just been added by Adobe to Camera Raw 8.4.

    8.4 has not yet been finally released but you can download and install a pre-release copy for CS6 and CC (it is not compatible with CS5 and earlier)

  • How do I open NEF files in CS6?

    I bought the Nikon D800E and CS6 says that it can't open the RAW files. Thanks for any help!

    I tried to do that and as the download progresses it stops and I get a 
    message to close CS6 which has to be open to get the download. Thank you!

  • How can I open raw files from my Nikon D7100 in CS4 or CS5?

    How can I open raw files from my Nikon D7100 in CS4 or CS5?

    Andy,
    In the simple and short form, what happens with the ACR (Adobe Camera RAW) module is that it gets updated with regularity, to accommodate the camera mfgr's. changes for their newer models. That ACR works within the host program, such as Ps, PsElements, Lightroom, etc.. At a point, Adobe ceases to support older host program versions. When that happens, the user has a few options:
    Upgrade the host program version
    Use another host program, such as PsElements or Lightroom
    Use the free DNG converter, per Curt's suggestion. That is not host program dependent
    Glad that the DNG Converter works for you.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

    You can't directly but can use DNG Converter to convert your files so ACR can read and process them.

    I can not open raw files in cs6 extended ,my camera is Nikon D 800E.
    Hope some one can help me.
                                     Robert chen

    The D800E is definitely supported in Camera Raw 7.1 which is compatible with CS6.
    Which version of Camera Raw are you running?
    Win: Help > About Plug-In > Camera Raw
    Mac: Photoshop > About Plug-In > Camera Raw
    If you're already on 7.1, what exactly happens when you try to open Raw files from that camera?

  • How can I open RAW files from Nikon D7100 in Photoshop Elements 9?

    Three choices:
    1. Upgrade to PSE11
    2. download the free Adobe DNG Converter and then convert your RAWs to DNG, which will open in PSE9
    3. Use manufacturer's software and convert to TIF (or JPG)

  • How do I open raw files from a Panasonic DMC-GF5 using Elements10 on a PC?

    How do I open RAW files from a Panasonic DMC-GF5 camera using Elements 10 on my PC?  When I try to open a Raw file I get a message 'wrong type of file'

    I believe you need ACR 7.1 which PSE10 cannot be updated to. 
    Use the DNG Converter to make DNGs from the RAW files and those should open in your older PSE version.
    You can also buy a newer version of PSE.  Perhaps do a Trial (Try) of PSE12 and see if PSE13 comes out in the next week or so.
    The DNG Converter can be found on this page:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates

  • How can I open RAW files with PSE 12 from Olympus o-md e-m 10?

    How cam I open RAW files ? I use PSE 12, the Olympus om-d em 10 and windows 7.

    Photoshop Elements 12 should be able to recognise raw files from the OM-D E-M10.
    Check which camera raw you currently have by loading the editor, going to the Help menu and selecting About plug-in -> Camera Raw
    If it not at version 8.5 then go to the Help menu and select Updates

  • Unable to open RAW files in CS6 after update

    Hi all,
    I have Photoshop CS6 and have been able to open my D4 Raw files with no issues using the Camera Raw version 7.1 plugin.
    Yesterday I upgraded my Mac OS from Snow Leopard to Yosemite (a big jump I agree) and proceeded to update Photoshop to the latest version as well as installing Adobe DNG Converter 8.8.
    I am apparently still using the same 7.1 plugin version as I always have but I am now no longer able to open any RAW files through Photoshop as it displays a message saying 'files not recognised' when I try to open them.
    Have I skipped too many updates? Do the latest Photoshop CS6 updates leave me unable to open RAW files? Am I being pushed down the CC route?
    Could anybody offer any help at all as I have a wedding to edit but cannot open any files!!! Stress!!!
    I backed up my system through Time Machine before I did the update but im not sure if I restore that I will still have Yosemite OS running.
    Any help or advice really is appreciated.
    Many thanks.
    Phil

    Camera RAW should be at version 8.8 for CS6

  • How do I open raw files from my Canon 6D in Photoshop CS5.1?

    Just tried to open raw files from my Canon 6D in Photoshop CS5.1. An error message appeared: "
    Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw.
    Please visit the Camera Raw help documentation for additional information." Is there a simple solution?

    You cannot, nor will you ever be able to open your Canon raw files directly in CS5.1.  Your camera model requires at least ACR 7.3 which only works with CS6, or Lightroom 4.3.  There will be no further updates for CS 5.1 ever.
    Your choices are (1) to upgrade to CS6, or (2) to download the latest version of the Adobe DNG Converter, currently 7.4, and convert your Canon raw files to raw DNG files that you can then open in your CS5.1.
    You should also know that the rendering in ACR 7.4 is far superior tou the raw conversion in ACR 6.x, so you would be leaving a lot of image quality on the table if you go the (free) DNG Conversion route.

  • Unable to open RAW file in CS6 via LR 4.1

    Not able to open in CS6 from LR 4.1 the RAW (CR2) files created by the new Canon 5D MKIII - the CS6 program opens but the actual RAW file itself does not open in ACR or Photoshop so unable to edit directly from Lightroom.
    (For the record I can open these same CR2 RAW files directly in ACR 7 or CS6)

    Are you sure you can open the 5D.3 CR2 files with CS6/ACR7? 
    When I open your file in CS6/ACR7 I get a message that it cannot be opened and a link to an Adobe knowledge-base article that tells what versions of ACR support what cameras—which of course doesn’t apply to beta versions, which ACR7 is, but is generally appropriate to the situation.
    The blog post Dorin linked to suggests the 5D.3 is not yet supported by ACR7.   I suspect Photoshop CS6 camera-support is lagging behind CS5 because the RAW team had LR4 to get out the door before CS6 was released as beta.
    The 5D.3 CR2 files ARE supported by ACR6.7 RC in CS5 if perhaps that is what you’ve been successful with.  The 5D3 CR2 files are also convertible to DNG by the DNGC 6.7 RC and then could be opened in ACR7.
