IPhoto crashing with RAW files

just navigating through pictures in Edit, iPhoto will randomly crash, some pictures are fine, some are fine this time but not next time...
Also, the crash reporter incorrectly identifies my card as a Radeon 9700 (it's a 9600...); wonder if that's related?
This is new to iPhoto 6 (as is the annoying new folder structure).

BR runs fine for a while on a new user account, but after that it has issues
launching fullscreen view. Grr!
I can imagine your frustration. Assume you have already tried to delete the
Bridge plist file from the user library?
Could you try once more?
Quit Bridge, then from user library delete the Adobe Bridge4 plist file and
from caches in same library Adobe/Bridge CS5 / both the Cache folder and
plug in.
In same library caches also the contents of the Adobe Camera Raw cache
folder (.dat files)
Also same library / app support/Adobe/Bridge CS5 / Workspaces and from here
delete the last workspace file (!!LastMenu.workspace)
Also be sure you have more then 10 % free space left on your disk and also
be sure to check and repair permissions for your system using Apple Disk
utility or other apps for that purpose.
Then restart Bridge holding down option key and choose refresh preferences
once more.
That used to be the final refreshment for troubled Bridge.
There have been some other issues with a MBP but I only have a standalone
MacPro and can't confirm this behavior I'm afraid.

  • PSCS4 11.0.1 (OS 10.5.6) crash with Raw files

    Throughout the day, I will open a Raw image in the Raw dialog box and CS4 will crash (see report below). Sometimes it will crash right when I quit CS4. Every few days it will crash for no apparent reason. Very annoying.
    Any suggestions?
    I only open one Raw picture at a time. I have cut PSCS4's RAM allocation to 80% and made sure my startup disk was not a scratch disk. Here's my details:

    Would you please try to clear your preferences and cache for Camera Raw? Can you also send me your system info from PS. Launch go to Photoshop>Help>System Info and send me via email [email protected] If you crash again can you please submit it to Adobe crash reporter (a dialog should come up) If you can record all your steps before crashing would be very helpful. Thanks!

  • Working with RAW files in iPhoto 5.0.4 and Elements 4.0.1

    I take photos in RAW mode and download them to iPhoto. When I try to edit the photo in iPhoto, the picture is a tiny little file that is impossible to enlarge with any sort of clarity. Also, the word "RAW" does not appear anywhere on the iPhoto window like I read it is supposed to.
    When I drag the file to Photoshop Elements, I get an editing window that has none of the tools usually associated with JPEG files. I get a separate window in which I can darken or lighten the image, that's it.
    Clearly, I'm doing something wrong. No one in their right mind would ever use RAW if this is how it works.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Jack!
    If you're new working with RAW files, your right, it just doesn't make sense. RAW <imho> is a bit overrated. One thing you will need to keep in mind when shooting in RAW, is you will still need to take a well exposed image. What RAW files will allow are CHANGES in all areas of the image v. JPEG which may allow you to ADJUST a few settings in the image. My only suggestion would be to kepp playing around with PSE until you get the hang of it, it is an excellent image editing software. But realize, a well exposed JPEG and RAW file are hard to tell apart...
    Personally, I do not directly download RAW files through iPhoto but will create a folder and download to here, and simply drage folder to iPhoto to import (which are then 'converted' into JPEG files). This way I have the original RAW images safely located outside of iPhoto as well as in iPhoto. You should set Elements as your choice of application to edit files inside iPhoto.
    Good luck, Rick

  • Trouble with iPhoto after latest update for compatibility with RAW-files

    Hi all, I'm having serious trouble with iPhoto since the latest update for compatibility with RAW-files for digital fotocamera's (version 2.4).
    After connection with the camera iphoto starts up as usual and i can start importing my pictures. So far all goes well. After having imported my pictures (visual with thumbs and so one) and having created an event iPhoto isn't able to show any pictures. Stopping and restarting Iphoto gives a message that there are a number of photo's available that havent been imported yet (!!???). I can choose to import or ignore. Whatever i choose i'm not capable of visualising the photo's.
    Anyone with a similar problem and the solution? Can i remove the update?
    I've tried several camera's all with the same problem.
    thx for any replies
    niki001

    Hi Terence, thanks for the reply (i'll wait with the downgrade for now ;-p).
    I made a small step by step report of my findings:
    1. Attach camera to imac
    2. iPhoto starts up with previews of the pictures (so far so good)
    3. Give event-name and start import ( so far so good)
    4. 'Latest Import'-report all fine, previews ok, check with event : previews fine. All seems well
    5. disconnect camera, stop iPhoto. As far as now all seems normal.
    6. Restart iPhoto : Message 'iPhoto Library contains photo's which havent been imported. Import Y/N?'.!!!???
    7. Option Y : IPhoto imports photo's imported in step 3 in a new event box (shown as a 'black box' on screen). Last made event (step 3) shows up as a black square in overview all events. Double click on event gives empty squares where previews should appear. Double click on photo preview gives large explanationmark on screen.
    8. Drag event-box over screen shows thumbs within square, release event returns to 'black box'.
    9. Shut down iPhoto.
    10. Restart iPhoto jumps back to step 6 as long as i keep answering Y.(Each time creating a new extra 'black box event').
    11. When i now look within iPhoto Library i can find a map Import in which i can find back the last imported photo's from step 3.
    12. Dragging these pictures to my desktop (preview gives no problem at all) and from there back in to iPhoto simply recreats a new 'black box event'.
    13. In step 6 option N gives a message 'creat iphoto Library recovered'. In iPhoto Library map Import has disapeared.
    14.When looking into map 'iphoto Library recovered' i can find my originally iported photo's. However same problem as in step 12.
    I used aperture (trial version) to see wether the problem could be photo-related, but here al goes well.
    So, any idea's???
    thx

  • How far does iPhoto preserve the RAW file when editing?

    I'm trying to get a better understanding of how iPhoto handles RAW photos and hope you'll answer a humble, possibly misguided question:
    How far through the editing process does iPhoto preserve RAW data?
    Here's what I mean by this: I understand that iPhoto cannot "edit" a RAW file, but there are a couple of ways it look like it was. Let's take a WB adjustment as an example.
    Option 1: "Convert on import." iPhoto converts the RAW to a JPG when I import the file (or begin to edit it). Then adjusting the WB will be a filter applied to a JPG file (meaning there wasn't much advantage to shooting RAWs in the first place)!
    Option 2: "Fully RAW." iPhoto imports the RAW file and then "processes" it whenever you display or print it. When you edit it (e.g., adjusting the white balance), it keeps track of the new parameters (e.g., WB, or contrast, or cropping, etc.) and then uses these parameters the next time it processes the RAW for display. This would mean, for example, that there would be no difference in quality between
    A. Taking a freshly-imported RAW and setting the white balance to X, and
    B. Taking a freshly-imported RAW, setting the white balance to Y, closing iPhoto, re-opening iPhoto then editing the picture again and changing the WB to X.
    Option 3: "Somewhere in-between." Files are imported as RAW, but then converted to JPG at the end of the first editing. Subsequent edits are treated as JPG edits (including the resulting loss in image quality with each edit).
    Can anyone clarify this? How does the answer differ for different types of edits (e.g., WB vs. image rotation vs., expanding the highlights, etc.)? Is the answer different for Aperture vs. iPhoto?
    Thanks!
    -Mike

    How about the 4 th option... None of the above.
    Option 3 is closest. As the Help says:
    When you edit a RAW-format photo and click Done, iPhoto applies your changes to the RAW image data and stores the data as a JPEG file (the original RAW file remains unchanged).
    It can also be saved as tiff is you prefer.
    Here's where it's different from your option 3:
    Subsequent edits are treated as JPG edits (including the resulting loss in image quality with each edit)
    There is no loss of image quality with each edit because of iPhoto's _[Non-Destructive Editing Feature|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iPhoto/7.0/en/11464.html]_ .
    You can, of course, re-process the RAWs if you choose. This will bring you right back to the Original file.
    Aperture is quite different. It's at your option 2

  • I ran MacKeeper and demo'd my wife's iPhoto archive bigtime: RAW files appear corrupted and lotsa pix w/no thumbnails or "!" marks instead. Help!

    I ran MacKeeper and demo'd my wife's iPhoto archive bigtime: RAW files appear corrupted and lotsa pix w/no thumbnails or "!" marks instead. Help!

    Should I take it that recco'd means 'recommended'? Still have no idea what demo'd means in the context you use. I've often seem it as an abbreviation for 'demonstrate' but that makes no sense. The problem with idiosyncratic abbreviations is that other people don't understand them.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards

  • Anyone know how iPhoto '08 handles RAW files?

    I use Aperture right now...just wondering

    I've got issues with how iPhoto '08 handles RAW files from my Nikon D40. When I first bring up a photo in full screen, it appears soft and slightly out of focus. After 1-2 seconds, it sharpens to full focus but it also brings in additional digital noise. It is primarily visible in skies and areas with subtle color changes. Thankfully I'm not seeing the same in Aperture.

  • CMS crash with core files and multiple report output generation

    Happy new year to everyone,
    Our BOXIR3.1SP6FP2 env has recently started behaving weirdly by triggering multiple output to users inbox and email notification out of scheduled reports. Also we have noticed the CMS crash with core file (almost 4GB) generation at the time of multiple report output.
    Most of the times, CMC crashes and recycles itself. At few times, CMS services alone went shut down.

    3. All core files were generated by boe_cmsd process and are almost 4GB in size (same as max threshold which it breaks).
    4. Shell script which I've added in the BOE servers shows that the CMS DB is available/connecting at the time of CMS crash.
    5. SAP analysed the Core files and skeptical about the below lines.

    I'll continue troubleshooting with a hope to fix it at the earliest.

  • Working with RAW files in PSE9:  Doable or better to use PSE12?

    I have PSE 9 and will soon get a camera with RAW capability.  I notice that Adobe no longer supports PSE 9.  Am I in for trouble if I don't upgrade to PSE 12 since I don't know how to work with RAW files?  It sounds as if I will need something to convert RAW files?  Where do I get it?  Is it a big deal for a beginner with no software skills?

    You can download a free DNG Converter from Adobe and then convert your RAWs to DNGs which can be used in PSE9.
    You don't need PSE12, but if you want to purchase PSE 12, you get the most current features in the Raw processor (which in my opinion is a huge improvement over what is available in PSE9), and you don't need the extra step of converting to DNG.

  • Working with Raw files in Aperture

    I bought a DSL are camera recently and have been shooting RAW
    Naturally my library is filling up with raw files
    My question is - when I want to export a very high quality image how do I get it out of Aperture and keep it as a large ihigh-quality image in raw?
    The export options that I have - from dragging to the desktop to sharing as-  all end up leaving me with a JPEG image which might only be two or 3 MB. The raw file can often be 10 or 15 MB
    So what is the best way to output the full image?

    I have a RAW file (22 mbs),  I can see from your helpful guidance that I can go into Aperture/Preferences/Export and set the export format to (for example)  Tiff 16 bit.  When I do that the exported Tiff file is 53 mbs,  sounds like I have a got a pretty full version there with all the information store in it so no compaints.
    I have another option, export as jpeg in 'original size'.  When I set that and then  'Share as email', the resulting image is 2.2 mbs.  Do you think a 2.2mb jpeg can be the full high quality image ?
    My knowledge of this area, isas you can see, a bit limited. I do understand that if I was sending the image to a printer to get a high quality image, I would send him the 53 mb  Tiff file,   but is the 2.2 mb jpeg a lower resolution cut doewn version of the original  ?

  • Issues with RAW files from my 7D

    I have Aperture 1.5.6 on my computer and the software updater says that is the current version. I shoot with a 20D and a 7D. I upload my raw files to Aperture and edit them from there and then process for a jpeg. However, every time I upload a raw file from my 7D I get the following message when I click on it to edit it: Unsupported Image format.
    Any words of advice, other than just buy Aperture 3??

    I have Aperture 2.X and had zero issues with RAW files from a 7D, so I think the problem is you are on 1.X. Converting to DNG first was a good suggestion if you don't want to purchase 3.X. Yet another reason to hate proprietary raw image file formats.......
