Updating Camera Raw for Elements 8 on Mac

Hello everyone,
I'm having a serious issue when I tried to update the Camera Raw plugin for Elements 8 on Mac. I downloaded the proper update (ElementsCameraRaw-6.3-mul-AdobeUpdate.dmg, the one specified for Elements 8). Inside I found an application (AdobePatchInstaller) but when I run it, it says it needs Adobe Application Manager. I downloaded Adobe Application Manager 1.5 for Mac and installed it, but when I tried again to install the Camera Raw update it said the update is not applicable. I think maybe the Application Manager version isn't good (it says CS5, but I didn't find one for Elements).
Could anyone help ... ?
Thanks in advance

Hi Rave,
Below is the list of steps from the Adobe KB article for installing the Adobe Camera Raw plug-in 6.2 on PSE 8:
Link to the KB article: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/863/cpsid_86312.html#main_Install Camera Raw 6.1 for Photoshop Elements 8 on Mac OS
Install Camera Raw 6.2 plug-in for Photoshop Elements 8 on Mac OS
Close Photoshop Elements 8 and Bridge CS5.
Download Camera Raw_6_2.dmg from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4809. Opening the downloaded file mounts the disc image containing the following two files:  Camera Raw.plug-in and cameraprofiles.mpkg.
Put the new version of the Camera Raw.8bi file that was downloaded into the same location as the original version.
Navigate to the root of the local disk (not your home folder).
Navigate to the following location: Applications/PSE8/Plug-Ins/File Formats.
Move the original plug-in from the location listed in step 5 to a backup location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensure that you keep this version in case you want to revert.
Copy the downloaded copy of the Camera Raw plug-in into the installation location listed under step 6.
Launch Photoshop Elements 8 or Adobe Bridge CS5.
To install Camera Profiles, double-click CameraProfiles.mpkg and then follow the on-screen instructions

    Do you really mean this error happens during download, or does the download complete and the error arise during installation? Where are you downloading ACR 6.7 from?
    Cheers,

    Camera raw 6.2 Here's a list: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applic ations.html  If you need to open files from a newer camera you could use the 7.1 DNG Converter to convert the files to dng copies which will open in pse 8.

  • Camera Raw for Elements 10 for the Canon EOS 7D MkII? Downloading

    Is there a "Camera Raw" for "Elements 10" for the "Canon EOS 7D MkII"?
    If so could I please have the link to where I can download it?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    The Canon 7D Mk II is currently not supported by any version of camera raw.
    It is expected that Camera raw 8.7 will include support and we are hoping that it will be released soon.
    PSE 12 has ceased to be updated - you will either need to update to PSE 13 or use the DNG 8.7 converter (when it becomes available) to convert the CR2 files to DNG files - PSE 12 will then beable to use the DNG files.

  • How can I update Camera raw for Photoshop CS5 to access images from Canon Rebel T4i?

    How can I update Camera Raw for Photoshop CS5 to access images from Canon Rebel T4i? The updated version of Camera Raw 7 says it only works with CS6. Outside of buying a new Photoshop, is there anything I can do?

    Buy Lightroom (much cheaper alternative to Photoshop) - does all your 'Photo-related' tasks. Full version of LightRoom 4 is $149/- - http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-lightroom.html
    LightRoom 4 supports ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) 7. Once processed with Lightroom, if you still need, you could take the photo in JPG or TIFF format into Photoshop CS5 for further processing.
    Another option is to use Canon Raw Codec that would've come with your camera's box to process the RAW images and then take them into Photoshop.

  • I am looking for Camera RAW for Elements 11 for a Nikon D610

    Does anyone have the link for Camera RAW for Elements 11 for a Nikon D610?

    According to the Adobe Supported Camera List - a D610 needs ACR 8.3:
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    According to the Adobe Apps list, ACR 8.3 only works with PSE12:
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    So either upgrade your PSE to 12, or use the DNG Converter 8.3 or 8.4, to convert the NEFs to DNGs that PSE11 can read.  The DNG Converter can be found, here:

  • Camera Raw for Elements 7 enabling use of Nikon D7000

    I use Elements 7 with Camera Raw 4.5 I now wish to edit RAW
    images from a Nikon D7000. How do I go about obtaining the r
    elevant Camera Raw download for use with Elements 7 which will enable me to view and process
    Nikon D7000 RAW images?

    The last version of Adobe Camera RAW that PSE7 will work with is ACR 5.6, and that does not support the newer D7000.
    Either buy PSE9, or download the latest DNG Converter 6.3 and convert your NEFs to DNGs and open those with the older ACR.
    You can get the downloads for both ACR 5.6 and the DNG Convert 6.3 by going to http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/ and using the dropdown at the top to find Camera RAW for your computer type.  If you update Camera RAW then be sure to use the PSE-specific instructions on the page or in the readme.  The DNG Converter is a standalone program that operates on an entire folder of RAWs at a time.

  • No update Camera Raw for CS5

    The only update of Camera Raw for CS5 was ver 6.7.1 in Mid 2013 but the Nikon Df wasn launch in Dec last year.  Adobe did not update the file therefore my Creative Suite 5 could not see the new NEF file unless I use DNG Converter to change to DNG file.

    Adobe does not update obsolete versions on ACR.
    So if you expect ACR to support RAW files from cameras that were not available when support for that version of ACR stopped with the release of the next version you will be probably dissappointed.
    Please try the free DNG Converter to get the files into a format your obsolete version of ACR can process.

  • Camera Raw for Elements 6.0 - how do I purchase plug in?

    I am trying to use Camera Raw with Elements 6.0.  Does this come with Elements and I just can't find it, or do I need to buy a separate plug in? The updates on Adobe say that it doest not recognize my file type.
    Thank you!

    Your best bet is to use the free version of DNG converter and watch this video to learn how to use it:

  • I can't figure out how to update camera raw. Elements won't read my ARW. files.

    Help? haha Elements won't read my ARW. files. It says to update camera raw but I don't know how.

    What camera model do you have?  What version of Elements are you using (Help / About Photoshop Elements) and what version of Camera Raw are you using in Elements, now (Help / About Plug-in / Camera Raw)?
    These questions are relevant because each camera model must be supported individually and Adobe only adds support to currently available products.
