Operating on nef files with photoshop elements

I have a nikon d7100 camera and photoshop elememnts 8.  At present I cannot open the NEF files into elements 8.  What is the solution? If I have to upgrade to elements 11 - will this software do the trick (or is there any other option?)

You need to "read up" on Adobe Camera Raw (ACR), how the versions change as cameras are introduced, how ACR versions apply to versions of PSE and, generally how the various versions of "RAW" files are translated to something viewable.
The short version is that your 7100 is so new it was not included until ACR 7.4, the last of the 7.x series.  To use any version of the 7.x series you need PSE 11.  Earlier versions of PSE won't accept the 7.x series.
Adobe DNG Converter upgraded to 8.1 last week.  7.4 is history!

    An attempt to open a pdf file with Photoshop Elements (version 12) resulted in a pop generated by the Photoshop Editor stated "Impossible to execute this operation (opening file) because one of the specified colour is not managed". Is there any mean to adapt the file to make its reading possible?
    Did somebody get the same problem?

    It is a high order probability that your SQL's report generator is creating the PDF, not Acrobat (which by design and EULA cannot be used in as/with server).
    That the report generator outputs to an old-old version of PDF bears this out.
    Wiki articles on PDF are very nice for those high level intro summaries.
    To know / understand PDF you purchase and study the ISO Standard for PDF (ISO 32000-1:2008).
    Rather than "PDF validation" you may want to consider addressing the appearent root cause of the problem(s).
    You can change the email2fax application to one that can deal with older PDF versions.
    You can change the report generator to one that can output to the ISO Standard.
    (Perhaps the in-use application can be configured to output to the current version of PDF (i.e., the ISO Standard).

  • I can't open D7200 NEF file with Photoshop CS6. I checked the updates and there are no updates available. What do I do?

    Hi,
    I can't open D7200 NEF files with Photoshop CS6.I checked the updates and there are no updates available.What do I do?

    For the time being, shoot JPEG images. At this time there is no support for NEF files from the D7200 in any Adobe product. It was released at such a time that it wasn't included in the last Camera Raw update. And Lightroom hasn't been updated either. Consequently, there is no DNG converter available at this time. We will have to wait and see what programs will be able to accommodate the D7200 when Adobe releases updates or upgrades that support the camera.

    Hi Nh239,
    Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your NEF files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your original NEF’s as backups and for use in Nikon software)
    Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.2

    You can convert a whole folder of NEF images in one click.

  • How can I edit a Nikon D7000 .nef file using Photoshop Element 8?

    In order to read and edit a picture taken in RAW format by a Nikon D7000, using Photoshop Element 8, what should I do?  Any plug in that I should download?

    The D7000 was first supported in Adobe Camera Raw 6.3 which is compatible with Elements 9 or later

    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
    Either upgrade to Elements 12 or use the Adobe DNG converter to convert D7000 Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in Elements 8.

    No.
    You need the Adobe Camera Raw plug-in; download and install it and you'll be up and running in a few minutes.

  • 16 bits Tiff files with Photoshop Elements

    Hello,
    I scan slides and films and get 16bits Tiff files. For post scan processing I would like to use PE but on the one I have (PE6 for Mac) most of the time before I start using a tool PE is asking me to convert the file into 8bits 'cause Element doesn't manage everything with 16bits files. Do you know if this is likely to change or if I need to buy Photoshop for my needs (as lomg as Photoshop works with 16bits which I assume it does).
    Thanks for your answer and advices

    Adobe seems to want to keep this as one of the distinctions between 
    PSE and PS. If you want to work with layers in 16 bits, you need to 
    move to PS. All you have in PSE are the more basic functions.

    Help required with Photoshop Elements 4.0 this has been installed on my new Toshiba laptop with windows 8.1 for some 18 months and operating well. Now it will not open, message pops up saying “attempt to access invalid address” then “application not responding” Suggestions how to access would be much appreciated. Tks. Stuart

    What is the size of your hard disk?  PSE 4 is a very old program and I suspect it is not able to access the entire hard disk on your machine.  Just a thought here.

    You need camera raw 8.4 for your camera, if it’s Digital Rebel T5 EOS 1200D EOS Kiss X70. It is not compatible with PSE11; so it’s a bit odd if that software was bundled with the camera except that it will work with jpegs. I suggest you download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will editable in PSE11(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.4

  • Tagging TIFF-files in Photoshop Elements 5

    I'am still using Photoshop Elements 5, but the organizer refuses to tag my TIF-files from a Nikon  D 300 (tagging JPEG's is no problem).  Because I would like to continue saving my edited pictures as TIFF-files, I would be glad, if anybody could give me a hint how to manage this problem.

    1) NEF (RAW) + JPEG Fine. I load the NEF-file with the Editor into this opening frame (don't know it's name). After treating the picture there I choose "Open picture" (translated from German) and continue treating the picture with the Editor. At last I save it as a TIFF- or an JPEG-file.
    2) Yes
    3) After drawing the icon with the tag to the picture it is to be seen for about three seconds. If I choose a new category, this icon appears below the picture.
    After this I choose "Save the tag- and featurecharacteristics with the photo" (translated from German) and get the answer: "The tag- and featurecharacteristics have been written into the file metadata" (translated from German).
    If I load the photo/file into the Editor, there are tags/keywords within the files I before saved as JPEGs and no tags/keywords within the the files I before saved as TIFFs.
