Please clear instructions for getting camera raw working for CS5 (PC)

I've worked for 2+ hours with a support person online and read through camera raw instructions in this forum and have re-installed CS5, downloaded and installed the camera raw plug-in multiple times and just run out of options.  I see in the this forum that there are discussions about getting the files in the right place, but I cannot even tell which file names to check on whether things are in the wrong places. 
Is there someone who can just list what files should be where so that camera raw will appear as a format in Photoshop and Bridge?  I am running Windows 7 64-bit.  When I try to open a file in camera raw format in Photoshop that format does not appear, and when I try to open in Bridge that option is there but greyed out.  I am entirely stuck and the support person gave up saying that if the downloaded plug-in would not fix the problem then he doesn't know what to check or do.  I suspect the files may be in the wrong place, or maybe there are duplicates (one comment in the forum mentions this as a possible problem). 
Thank you in advance to anyone who can help.

Just to make sure we're in sync...  Have you tried the following?
Open Photoshop.
Choose File - Open As - then select Camera Raw from the list of formats.
Also, Photoshop should just open Camera Raw automatically when you try to open a raw file (e.g., .NEF, .CR2), without doing anything special.
Can you specifically describe what actually happens when you try to open a raw file, and how you're going about doing so?

    Native support requires ACR version 8.3, which will only run under CS6 or CC.
    Use the free DNG converter to make DNGs readable in older ACR versions. http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates.html

  • Looking for the camera raw plugin for Nikon d3100

    Hello!
    I'm familiar with how to install a camera raw plugin for photoshop.  However, I've had a difficult time finding the correct download link for the Nikon d3100 for ps cs4.  Will you please point me in the right direction with a link or otherwise?  Thanks so much!

    ACR - Adobe Camera Raw versions are specific to the version of Photoshop you have.
    They don't provide updates to your version for cameras that were released much later.
    You need to download the LATEST version of DNR Converter and use this to convert a FOLDER that contains your D3100 files to DNGs which then can be opened in your older version of ACR for Photoshop CS4.
    The Adobe DNG Converter, a free utility that converts files from more than 350 cameras to DNG, enables you to easily convert camera-specific raw files to a more universal DNG raw file.

  • Cannot get camera to work for the first time.

    I cannot get the camera to work . I have the IPad2 and just tried to use it this week.   Have tried turning on &off and nothing is working. The video will not come on either. Any ideas.

    Have you tried closing the Camera app completely and seeing if it works when you re-open the app ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Camera 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset (if that wasn't what you meant by turning the iPad off and on) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Camera Raw update for CS5 Extended

    I am looking for a Camera Raw update for CS5 Extended. I currently have CR 6.7.0.339.  IS there something newer for me to use with CS5 Extended, Ver. 12.1x64?

    Camera Raw 6.7 is the latest version that's compatible with Photoshop CS5. There's nothing newer for CS5.

    If you need Camera Raw 7+ for your camera, you'll have to upgrade to Photoshop CS6.
    Which camera do you have?

    See for yourself which version of ACR is needed for that camera’s RAW files
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    then check your version (Photoshop > About Plug-In > Camera Raw).
    Your version of Photoshop does not support that version of ACR.
    You could use the free DNG Converter.

  • How do I get Camera Raw for Pentax PEF file to open in Photoshop CS4?

    How do I get Camera Raw in CS4 to recognize Pentax PEF files? I have downloaded and installed the Camera Raw Plug Ins but I still cannot open the file.  I have done this on my older computer but can't seem to get it to work on my new one.

    I just looked that up. You need at least Adobe Camera Raw 8.3 which only Photoshop CS6 and above has.
    Adobe Camera RAW 8.3 include Pentax K-3 support - PentaxForums.com
    So in order to read it in ACR 5.7, you will need to use the free Adobe DNG Converter and convert those Pentax raw files to DNG.

  • How to get Camera RAW / Photoshop CS5 to work with Canon 100D?

    How to get Camera RAW / Photoshop CS5 to work with Canon 100D? I don't want to by this product again and again...

    In what way is ACR not working in Bridge?  Is there no right-click Open in Camera Raw available from Bridge, or there is, but the ACR version is less than ACR 6.7.1 or what exactly is the issue? 
    Also, if you open Photoshop and do Help / About Plug-ins / Camera Raw, is ACR missing from the list, or if not, what version does it say is installed?
    You might also want to describe what methods you have tried to correct the issue, since saying you've tried what you've seen posted and they didn't work, isn't really much to go on.

    please direct me to the Photoshop CS6 camera raw plugin for Canon G15 digital camera
    Thank you

    Hi, rich_fred.
    As the Canon G15 is a very new model, support is not yet available through Camera Raw. In the meantime, try out the software that came with you camera, to see if it can export a TIF or JPEG, which should open up in Photoshop just fine.
    Hopefully support for the G15 will be available in the next Camera Raw update. You can find a list of supported cameras here: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/extend.html

  • How do I get text to wrap around a jpeg photo. Pages instructions don't eem to work for me,

    How do I get text to wrap around a jpeg photo. Pages instructions don't seem to work for me. I'm just beginning to use Pages for other than simple word processing.

    I am creating a photo album with captions and have tried to have one caption wrap around a photo image that is part of a series of three overlapping and descending images. I have selected the photo, clicked Inspector etc. with no luck. I did read a previous answer re floating and noticed that both my text and my image have inline in light colour and floating in dark, which I presume means they are both inline. When I try to click on Floating in Object Placement, nothing happens. The option doesn't appear to be "available", unlike the wrap options below, which do light up and indicate what I want to happen. It just doesn't happen and I don't know how to solve the problem.
    I have had to replace my older computer on which I did all of these projects (newsletters, albums, etc.) with an old version of InDesign, which no longer works with the newer OS 10.6. So I'm trying to learn how to do the same types of things with Pages, and it's somewhat frustrating, since text wrap was quite simple with InDesign.

    There is some confusion about how to apply the method in the replies to that topic. A somewhat easier to understand explanation is at http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/hide-a-software-update-in-os-x-mountain-l ion, among other places on the web.
    Note that you may need to click on the "more" item to see individual system software updates.
    That said, the others are right: the RAW format updates are tiny & it is hardly worth the effort to hide them or to worry about the disk space they use.

  • Getting Camera RAW 4.1 to leave things alone

    Maybe there is a direct answer to this question somewhere on the forum, but I have been searching without much luck. Maybe someone has a concise answer out there...
    How do I get Camera RAW 4.1 to USE all of my in camera settings, and then how do I most effectively open those files into PS3 for image processing (changing them into PSD) for any editing they may need?
    My images are what I am looking for when they come out of the camera, and when I preview them in Bridge. It's only when the NEFs get opened into camera RAW 4.1 that they lose all their settings, and thus saturation, depth, contrast, etc.
    I have heard about saving settings and profiles, but I am talking about thousands of photos in each shoot, with wildly different elements to them all. I work hard to make sure most everything is well set and executed in the camera when I shoot, so it is disheartening to have to "edit" which seems to mean just re-build everything I originally captured via in camera settings. Furthermore, it seems that this editing is very time consuming and rarely matches what I see if the previews.
    I just want ACR's converter to not assume I didn't pay any attention to my in camera settings, and that I want to actually "edit" each photo in its interface. Thanks ahead of time for any help or suggestions that you might have. If it helps, I am shooting with D200s and D70s.

    These issues have been covered here before many times. Just do a forum search.
    In a nutshell:
    This has been covered ad nauseam here. Please do a forum search.
    Camera manufacturers, Canon and Nikon in particular, perform in-camera RAW to JPEG conversions designed to generate the over-saturated, over-contrasty and over-sharpened images that appeal to most amateurs.
    Their stand-alone RAW conversion software also performs the same conversion to your RAW images.
    Noise is also hidden by compressing the shadows so you don't see much of the noise inherent in the image.
    Adobe Camera Raw, ACR, on the other hand, comes with default settings designed to give you the most detail possible (even if this sometimes means revealing some of the noise hidden by the camera manufacturers in their RAW conversion software), as well as the most natural images.
    That being said, you can calibrate your camera to ACR and come up with your own settings to produce exactly what you want, including the JPEG-look of the camera manufacturer, and save that as your profile.
    The key is to learn how to use ACR properly and to calibrate your camera to ACR.
    CLICK HERE for some essential reading. (Revised edition for ACR 4.x by Jeff Schewe shipping soon.)
    The ACR defaults are nothing more than a suggested starting point.
    The color temperature won't necessarily match either.
