Photoshop Elements 8 not reading Raw files

I have an old version Elemnts 8 running on Mac OS 10.6.8 that I have used mosty for jpg files in the past. I now have a new Nikon D7000 and am shooting in Raw only PSE 8 will not recognise my raw files, I have been on numerous plugins to try to update PSE and see if I can get the right plugin to interface with the D7000, not much information out there to help me. I just installed Camera Raw 6.2 as it appeares to be the most untodate that can still be installed in PSE 8 but my Raw files are still a blank icons and PSE will not recognise them. I rang the Adobe Tech people and they would love to help if I put some money into their pocket.. I don't see why I should when it is obviously a fault of their software that it wont read Raw, other wise they wouldn't have so many update plugins out there to try to fix the problem. has anybody been able to find a solution to this, and can you help me.

a fault of their software that it wont read Raw, other wise they wouldn't have so many update plugins out there to try to fix the problem.
Just FYI, every single camera model has a unique raw format, so every time there's a new camera release, adobe must update the raw plug-in with the information necessary for that format, and they need the necesary info from the camera maker to do that. Raw isn't a generic format, unfortunately, and adobe also makes other changes to the raw converter from time to time, so there's a limit to how long you can continue to get new versions with your older software. (In CS, they deliberately cut you off when a new CS version is released, but in PSE it's true compatibility that mostly determines when the upgrades stop. Your version of Bridge was also part of CS4 so it got stopped when CS5 came out. )
Another option would be to use the software that came with the camera to do your raw conversions, save as Tiff and edit those in PSE.

Photoshop CS4 will not read Raw files from Nikon D60. [was: No automatic updates for my PS CS 4 on windows (for reading .Nef files)?]

Hi
I have been using PS CS4 for several years.
Yesterday, I went to PS CS4 help and selected "updates", but I get the message "There are not updates available at this time; Please note that some updates for the following products cannot be determined at this time: Adobe Updater".
I need the updates because I just purchased a Nikon D60 and my Photoshop does not read the .NEF files produced by the camera.
any idea, please?
thanks

Do you really mean the Nikon D60 which shipped in 2008? Was it purchased secondhand?
The Nikon D60 was first supported in Adobe Camera Raw 4.4.
Photoshop CS4 ships with Camera Raw 5.0 so it can read D60 NEF files out of the box. No updates required.
If you do mean the D60 then something else must be going on. e.g. are you using Nikon software to transfer files from camera to computer?

Can Photoshop Elements version 13 handle raw files from Canon camera 7D mark 2? Where can I read about it on Adobe web site?

I found an Adobe web site note that raw plug-in version 8.7 will support Canon 7D mark 2, but is not included in Elements version 11.

My new Photoshop Elements 12 has a RAW file plug-in, but when I try OPEN to select a photograph, there are only generic icons instead of pictures-- I can't tell one photograph from another! How can I fix this so I can tell which photograph I want to open?

The first thing I did was UPDATE. I have all the latest updates available (according to the updater). The Camera Raw Plug-in says it is version 8.0.
The RAW files are from a Canon T3i. It's a very common camera, I can't believe it wouldn't be supported.

My program does not read raw files from mark III

My program does not read raw files from mark III

emac77,
Support for Canon 5D MIII RAW files was announced in ACR 7.1 (Adobe Camera Raw 7.1).
The current stable release is ACR 7.2 while ACR 7.3 is still a Release Candidate (Beta).
Starting ACR 7.2, Adobe stopped supplying a manual download link which was available till 7.1. Adobe Application Manager (AAM) is the only way for you to update to ACR 7.2.
However, here is a direct download link that AAM connects to for the download that you can use to grab the .zip or .dmg (Mac) file. Download and install. See if you're able to open your files then.
ACR 7.2 for Windows: http://swupdl.adobe.com/updates/oobe/aam20/win/PhotoshopCameraRaw7-7.0/7.2.82/Setup.zip
ACR 7.2 for Mac: http://swupdl.adobe.com/updates/oobe/aam20/mac/PhotoshopCameraRaw7-7.0/7.2.82/Setup.dmg

How can I get Elements 13 to read RAW files from Nikon D750?

I've upgrade my camera from the Nikon D3200 to the Nikon D750. With the D3200, I used Elements 11 to edit both JPEG and RAW files, but found out today Elements 11 isn't compatible with the D750 to read RAW files. I downloaded the trial version of Elements 13--which is compatible per the Adobe help desk, but the RAW files shot with the D750 still aren't being seen; however, I do see RAW files that I took with the D3200.
Same memory card is being used and I formatted the card when I changed it from one camera to the other.
What am I doing wrong? I almost always shoot RAW, so I need to be able to the files.
I'm wondering if Elements 13 really is compatible with the D750.
I want to add I'm using a MAC.
Thank you!
Shannon

I was able to figure out the issue--the D750 files must be converted to DNG files first, then I can upload them to Elements and edit them as I would a RAW file.
If anyone else is having this issue, I found the video helpful: Learning | LR/PS - The Advantages of the DNG File Format | Photoshop.com.
You can find the free DNG converter here: Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
This works for both MAC and Windows.

Why is Elements 12 not recognising raw files from my Nikon d5300

What am I doing wrong, the main reason I bought Elements 12 was to regcognise eaw files from my Nikon d5300

Hi,
You shouldn't need to use the DNG converter unless you are using the MAC app version. The D5300 should be supported by Camera Raw 8.3 which should be compatible with Photoshop Elements 12.
In the editor go to Help -> About Plug-in -> Camera Raw to see which version you have loaded. The latest for Photoshop Elements 12 is 8.5. If you have an older one then go to the Help menu and select Updates.
If you are up to date, then you may have use old Nikon software to access the NEF files and that is known to corrupt them so that Photoshop Elements can't read them.

Photoshop Elements 10 not recognizing .NEF files from Nikon D3200 camera

I've been using Photoshop Elements 10 to edit raw .NEF files from my Nikon D3000 with no problems. Recently I purchased a Nikon D3200 and I shoot in raw .NEF files using that also but Photoshop Elements 10 will not recognize those .NEF files to edit. The error I'm getting is saying the file type is not correct. Any way to correct this?

For the D3200 you have two alternatives:
(1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) 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
Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.2
You can convert a whole folder of NEF images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

PSE9 not reading raw files in Mountain Lion

What need to be downloaded so I can read raw files in mountain lion. PSE9 was able to read them in Snow Leopard?

I guess all the updates for PSE 9 from this link:
<http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=40&platform=Macintosh>
Alternatively, you could use the update features of the Element itself that will download everything for you automatically and al;so install them for you.
Good luck.

Elements 10 will not read RAW files from my new Lumix G5

All my RAW files taken with Lumix G1 are fine but the RAW files from my new camera (Lumix G5) won't open. What should I do?
Looking at help in E10, it says ACR is version 6.7.0.339
Elements 10 is version 10.0 (20110831.m.17215)
Any ideas?

You need at least ACR 7.2 for those raw files, and ACR 7 is not compatible with PSE 10. So you have three choices:
1. Upgrade to PSE 11 (not the mac app store version, which is stuck at 7.1). If you are considering this, I would wait a month or so, since Adobe historically releases a new version every Sept/Oct.
2. Use the panasonic software (silky pics?) to convert the raw files and send the resulting images to PSE for further processing.
3. Download the free adobe DNG converter, which can create DNG files that are compatible with your version of ACR.

LR 5.7 not reading RAW files

I have a Mac OSX 10.10.3 and a new Canon 7D II. I upgraded to LR 5.7 because I read that my camera was supported by this update. However, when I try to upload my photos I get a message stating that the software can't read the RAW files. I tried uploading the DNG converter and the Camera RAW 9.0 but nothing is working. I've read the LR forums and the FAQ's and can't find an answer. Has anyone else had this problem?

the canon 7d mark II needs cr 8.7 or better which comes with lr 5.7
check your cr version in lr.
p.s. the latest and last version of lr 5 is 5.7.1.

Lightroom 3 on OSX version 10.8.5 - not reading raw files

I have a new mackbrook pro, osx, version 10.8.5 with Lightroom 3. The program will open but will not read my raw files. Do I need an update for Lightroom 3? If so, which update? Iphoto will read the raw images and I can drag images from iphoto into lightroom but Lightroom will not load the raw images from my camera. Please help.

If you have to work with it, I would simply import through the finder to a folder on your hard disk and then import from there. You might have to set up the USB communication mode on your camera to Mass storage isntead of PtP (should be somewhere buried in the menus). Changing that setting might help with the direct Lightroom import too. You might also get better results going through a card reader (you can get them at many places for <$10) instead of connecting directly to the camera which is always a recipe for problems and slow imports. A card reader is a good investment as they usually are MUCH faster than going through the camera's USB connection.
A Lightroom upgrade to v5 is $79 dollars. It might be worth it to think about. I understand tight money though and sometimes even $80 is a big deal but you might not have been aware you can get upgrade pricing if you have LR 3. ANother option is getting the creative cloud photographer deal which is $10/month and includes both the full version of Photoshop and Lightroom. I don't like the idea of rental software but that is quite the deal.

My PS CS5 does not read Raw Files

I have two Macs and on my MacBook Pro it has never read my raw files from my canon camera (.cr2) so I always edited those on the iMac.
Now after an update I can only edit raw images on my iMac (.nef) and I can't edit any raw images on my macbook pro at all.
What do I do?
I looked through some online tutorials and I checked for updates and it says the program is updated.
Any help would be so appreciated.
Nikki
