Updated to latest ACR 6.6 but still can't open CR2 files from Canon Rebel XSi

I updated to latest version of Adobe Camera Raw 6.6 but still can't seem to open my CR2 files in Photoshop. Can't open them in Lightroom either, no preview in Bridge or OS.
I'm running OS 10.7.2 and Photshop 12.1 x 64 which is CS5.1 I suppose.
I've downloaded Canon's EOS utility hoping that would somehow do something as well but nothing.
The images were shot on Canon Rebel XSi which is certainly supported by the newest version of ACR. So I have no clue as to what's happening... I previously downloaded these images onto my old laptop about a year ago and everything was fine, however now I'm not even getting a preview in OS. Do I have to revert to an older version of ACR (perhaps the same one I used originally?) to open these files again? These files have been stored on a hard drive, so I'm not downloading them directly from the camera-again, this probably has nothing to do with it but not sure what to do. A lot of the posts I've seen recommend downloading the latest version of ACR to fix the issue, but again I've done that and as a matter of fact the camera (Rebel XSi) has been supported for some time now...
In OS, when the image is selected no preview:
Lightroom error:
Bridge, no preview:
Photoshop error:
Ideas, suggestions?

Something appears to be wrong with your files.
Are most of your images approx. 3.7 MB?
This is very small for a 12 MP image.
If you go back to the original file on your laptop, what is the file size?
Also the fact that the Mac OS is not showing the preview is unusual.
Perhaps these files got corrupted when they were moved to your new computer.
Can you open these files OK on your old laptop?
Is the OS showing the previews on your old laptop?
Also compare the file sizes between old and new computer.
Have you tried repairing your permissions?
Try Disk Utility in your Macs Applications - Utilities - Disk Utility to see if this helps.
Good Luck!

    As you probably know the Canon plug-in enables Log & Transfer in FCP7. I'm not sure whether it works with Final Cut Express or not.
    Look in Applications>Canon Utilities. I'm running 10.6 as well and that is where it's located on my machine.
    Good luck.

  • Can't open cr2 files from my 5D but can from my 20D

    i just got a new computer (windows vista) and on my old computer i could open cr2 files from both my 20d and my 5d just fine. but now on my new computer i can't open the cr2 raw files from the 5d but can from the 20d. I have photoshop cs2. I am not planning to upgrated to cs3 anytimes soon, do I just need to install a plug in? Please help.

    Kristen,
    No, no, no. The DNG Converter is a stand-alone executable program. You can even put it on your desktop. You would need it only if your camera model is NOT supported by ACR 3.7, which is the latest version you can use with Photoshop CS2.
    In that case, you would use the DNG Converter to convert your raw images to DNG files first and then opening the DNG files in ACR 3.7.
    Now, the ACR 3.7 plug-in has to be installed in the correrct location, which is where the old ACR plug-in resides. You will be replacing that old, obsolete ACR plug-in (while Photoshop is NOT running).
    [The default Photoshop installation comes with and installs that obsolete ACR plug-in.]
    Read the instructions on the download page very carefully, and refer to the FAQs of this forum on the same page where you added this topic.

  • Installed Adobe Camera Raw 8.7.1 but still can't read raw files from new a7ii

    Have latest update of LR. Just bought new camera A7ii but LR would not recognize raw files. Downloaded and installed Camera Raw 8.7.1 and restarted. Still can't recognize files. What did I do wrong?

    Have latest update of LR
    Please tell us the version number
    LR would not recognize raw files
    Exactly what happened? Is there an error message? If so, please quote the complete error message exactly as it appears, word-for-word, verbatim, changing nothing.
    Downloaded and installed Camera Raw 8.7.1 and restarted.
    As Bob Somrak said, this won't help, and he provides details on what to do.

  • After updating Bridge & PS, still unable to view CR2 files from Canon M3

    I cannot view CR2 Raw files from the Mark III on Bridge CS6 and Photoshop CS6 to convert into TIF and JPG files for a client. I have updated all of my Adobe programs, restarted, and the files are still not showing up for me. Help please!

    Thank you for elaborating.
    Your system should absolutely be opening those files.  Any of the versions of ACR (Adobe Camera Raw Plug-in) that run with Photoshop 13.0.6 can and will open those files if properly installed, that includes the current version, ACR 8.6.
    Go to About Plug-In > Camera Raw… in the Photoshop menu and see what version shows up there, just to check that the plug-in is installed correctly.  There should only be one version of ACR in the plug-in menu.
    That Canon camera model has been supported ever since ACR versions 6.7 in CS5 and 7.1 in CS6.
    If ACR only shows once in the plug-in menu and you still cannot open your file(s), then you in all probability have corrupted files.
    The fact that you can see the images in Apple's Preview means nothing, only that Preview is showing you the embedded JPEG preview embedded in the file. Such JPEG previews generally do not get corrupted even if the raw file has been corrupted.
    I hope you have the original CR2 files or good backups. 

  • Can't open RAW files from Canon 70d in Elements 11.  Is there an update?

    I have a new Canon  EOS 70D but my Elements 11 won't open RAW files. Is there an update i can download?

    You need to upgrade to PSE12. Alternatively, download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software) You could also use the Canon software that came with your camera to convert to tiff, which would open in PSE11.
    Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.2
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.2
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • I'm using a 30 days trial of PS  CC...but I Can't open raw files from my NIKON D 7100

    I can't open raw files in PS CC.
    I'm using NIKON D7100.

    Noel,
    Good morning, and may I just add  THANK YOU!
    While certainly not as efficient or handy, that is the answer.  I simply
    instructed my PC to open the containing folder, in this case my direct card
    reader, and manually copied the files to my hard drive (highlight first and
    last-SHIFT-Enter) and moved them to a pre-named subdirectory.
    I opened PScc and pointed to that file, clicked on the photo I wanted and
    VIOLA!  Opened in Camera Raw and I was off to the races!
    Perhaps the user groups can make some noise and someone at Nikon may take
    notice!
    Thanks again for the suggestion.

  • I use CS3 & with 7.2 download still can't open Raw files from Sony A99 camera

    This is a real setback until compatibility occurs. Anyone have the answer?

    Hi ecoessays1,
    Unfortunately CS3 does not support the 7.2 Camera Raw Plug-in. Here is a list of Raw-compatible Adobe Applications. From the list, you can see that Photoshop CS3 only supports Camera Raw 4.0 through 4.6. With that being said, the Raw plug-in Supported Cameras list states that you need atleast Plug-in 7.2.
    With that being said, you will need to upgrade your software version to CS6 or Creative Cloud (CC) in order to support Camera Raw on your Sony A99. Photoshop Elements 11 and Lightroom 4.2 and above also supports Camera Raw for your camera model.
    Hope this helps!

  • Downloaded Camera Raw update 6.2 but still can't open raw images

    I followed all the steps as indicated on this page: Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.2 update but for some reason I still can't open .CR2 files . My camera (Canon Rebel T3i) is on the list of supported files. What should I do? I'm using Windows and I have Photoshop elements 8.0.

    You need camera raw 6.4 for your camera. It is mot compatible with PSE8. You need to upgrade to PSE13. Alternatively, download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in PSE8 (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.6
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.6

  • I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

    I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

    Canon 1DX support was added to ACR in version 6.7, 7.1.  An updated CS6 should be at level ACR 8.6.  If your ACR is not at level 8.6 try using CS6 menu Help>Updates.  If that does not install ACR 8.6 try downloading the ACR and DNG 8.6 converter and see if ACR 8.6 will install into your CS6.

  • HT204053 I have installed the latest version of Apple but still can't see ICloud in System Preferences- how can I fix this?

    I have installed the latest version of Apple but still can't see ICloud in System Preferences- how can I fix this?

    Lion is required to see the iCloud Preference Pane: this is an upgrade, not an update, and has to be paid for. If you want to install Lion, go to the Mac App Store and purchase and download it there ($29.99).
    First check that your Mac meets the requirements for Lion:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space

    Don't be afraid to bump this topic. There's also an App Store forum where you might repost this question, but give some of these details in your post.  I'd rephrase the topic to something like "Can't use App Store to upgrade." (Instead of can't "open".) Then give the details.

  • I just updated Indesign but still can't open an .indd file.

    I just updated Indesign through the Creative Cloud App, but I still can't open a file provided by a client. The error message says the file was saved with "a newer version of Adobe Indesign CC (9.2). Not sure why this is the case since I have a CC subscription. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Okay, I figured it out. There are 2 versions of Indesign, Illustrator and Photoshop currently released by Adobe: CS6 and CC. Hadn't been paying attention, so it was confusing. It's not immediately clear on the Adobe site that there are 2 versions. Not very good customer support/relations in that respect.

  • Pages downloaded, but I still can't open iCloud pages from iPad. Says that I need a new version of Pages on my Mac

    For my Mac Pro, after I downloaded the new Mavericks OS, I downloaded the new pages. However, I still can't open iCloud pages from iPad. Says that I need a new version of Pages on my Mac.
    Please help.

    It appears that you are launching the old version, probably using an icon in your Dock. That icon is an alias & is not updated. You will need to go to your Applications folder & find the new Pages 5 icon & double-click it. Once it is launched, you can right-click on the icon & choose Options > keep in Dock from the contextual menu.

  • I ordered the full creative cloud on sunday and received an order number but still can't open any of the programs. When i check the status of my order online, it says it can't find it. Is this normal after 3 days?

    I ordered the full creative cloud on sunday and received an order number but still can't open any of the programs. When i check the status of my order online, it says it can't find it. Is this normal after 3 days? I tried asking in a chat window instead of the forum but no one answered and after about ten minutes my screen restarted and closed the chat window down. It seems a little frustrating not knowing what happened to my order and not being able to contact anyone. Is all this usual with Adobe or are they just having technical problems this week?
