5D Mark II file conversion with CS3

I just bought a 5D Mark II, but CS3 Bridge won't open my files. So I downloaded DNG converter 4.5, but when I tried to do the conversions I got a message saying "There was an error parsing the file". How can I use CS3 Bridge with my 5D Mark II files?

So let me make sure I'm understanding everything correctly. Since my studio now additionally shoots with a Canon 5D Mark II camera, me and my staff of photographers has to use the DNG converter after every shoot to convert the Mark II files into a compatible .dng file?
I'm in the process of converting a shoot from today with the 5.2 DNG converter and it's anything BUT quick. This is basically forcing my studio to upgrade every computer to CS4 because this creates a serious kink in the workflow since we need to remain efficient after each shoot.
I have 8 computers that could potentially need upgrades to CS4. This is hard on small businesses when Adobe is updating their software so often. Regular updates I understand, but total version changes is another. It's hard for me to believe that this wasn't intentional to drive more sales towards CS4 upgrades. Maybe I'm totally wrong though; I'm just really frustrated right now. Any help?

  • Sender File adapter File Conversion with key fields

    Please help me guys, I already spent way too much time on this!
    I checked a couple of BLOGs and I think I'm doing the right thing except I'm not getting the result I would expect.
    I'm trying to create an IDoc using the from a flat file.
    I get the following error:
    During the application mapping com/sap/xi/tf/_MM_TEST_ a com.sap.aii.utilxi.misc.api.BaseRuntimeException was thrown: RuntimeException in Message-Mapping transformatio~
    The Source file is this:
    H
    L0015
    The file adapter does create the XML below (looks fine):
      <ns:MT_SINGLE xmlns:ns="http://PPSC_TO_BO_INVOICE">
      <HEADER>
         <ID>H</ID>
      </HEADER>
      <LINE>
         <ID>L</ID>
         <SITE>0015</SITE>
      </LINE>
      </ns:MT_SINGLE>
    When I test the map in IR, with the XML that this file adapter created (above) it works fine!
    Also if I take away the HEADER from the source structure everything works fine and I can create the IDoc, therefore I think something must be wrong in the file conversion, the mapping is so simple there is nothing to fail there.
    The file conversion parameters that I have:
    Document Name: MT_SINGLE
    Document Namespace: http://PPSC_TO_BO_INVOICE
    Document Offset:
    Recordset Name: 
    Recordset Namespace:
    Recordset Structure: HEADER,1,LINE,*
    Recordset Sequence: Ascending
    Recordset per Message:
    Key Field name: ID
    Key Field Type: String (Case-Sensitive)
    LINE.fieldNames: ID,SITE
    LINE.fieldFixedLengths: 1,4
    LINE.keyFieldValue: L
    HEADER.fieldNames: ID
    HEADER.fieldFixedLengths: 1
    HEADER.keyFieldValue: H
    What am I doing wrong???
    Any help is much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Viktor Varga

    Hi Viktor,
    Basic rules:
    1. Down load XML payload(output From Adapter) and test it in IR mapping program. If it is working there is no reason why it will fail in Runtime. Also Check Cache is up to date.
    Generally the problem lies with namespace.
    Hope this helps

  • File Conversions with API...!

    Hi guys...!
    I'm searching for a file conversion product that comes with an API, which will enable programmers or developers to integrate it in their program.
    The product must be able to convert PDF, HTML, Excel, Access, Power Point, and Word into a text document. Most of the product that I found do not come with an API.
    Does anyone know a good product that does that...?

  • Cs4 files compatible with cs3?

    I'm the graphic designer, others do PHP, ASP, etc. If I
    upgrade to CS4, will my associates have difficulty working with my
    sites and/or files if they stay with CS3?
    Thanks,
    Karen

    I don't think so. It would be prudent to backup your site
    definitions, and
    any custom snippets, but other than that, I think it's a
    smooth upgrade.

  • 5d Mk II Raw Files compatible with CS3?

    Hey there,
    Anyone's help would be appreciated on this one. I've recently got the Canon 5D Mk II and am currently using Photoshop CS3. My previous ACR version couldn't read the files so I have just installed ACR 4.4.1.. but it doesn't seem to read the files either. Is this the latest ACR I can install or is there a later version that will read these files? Will CS3 read these Raw files or am I going to have to upgrade to CS4?
    Thanks in advance...

    You either have to upgrade to CS4 or use the DNG converter, which makes 5d Mk II raw files readable and editable in the CS3 version of ACR.

  • File Conversion with special char ' '

    I have a flat file that contains '<' character though it is not an XML file.  I planned to treat the contents like a blog and have something like this:
    <recordset>
      <record>
        <data>
          <i>File content</i>
        <data>
      </record>
    </recordset>
    My File content has something like the following:
    <<SAMPLE>>
    <_TEST_>
    DATEFORMAT, DD-MM-YYYY
    DATETIMEFORMAT, DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI:SS
    SOURCESYSTEM, BM_SRC_OPENBPC
    <ENDTEST>
    How can this be handled as XI will interpret the '<' as XML tag and give an error when it encounters this.

    When you use the content conversion of the file adapter, the characters < and > are escaped automatically.
    When you want to write your own conversion module, you have to do the escaping by your own, if you want the '<' to be treated as a character. You can leave the < unescaped, when you want to treat it as a tag.

  • Canon 5D mark II raw file conversion size blowout

    I am suffering from an issue where my CR2 files from a 5D decrease in size when converted to DNG  from for example 14.4MB to 11.8MB while the 5D mark II files increase from 8.7MB to a much larger 23.6MB after conversion. Both conversions are being done with DNG Converter 5.4 using the same preferences. Any light you could shine on this for me would be greatly appreciated.

    It is because your 5D Mark II files are sRAW images, not raw. (The full 5D Mark II raw files are usually over 20 MB, not ~8 MB.) When you process sRAW files into DNG files, the DNG files are stored in the "linear DNG" format, which is much bigger than the sRAW format.
    p.s., these questions should be directed to the Camera Raw, Lightroom, or DNG forums in the future to get a faster reply.

  • MacBook Pro flashes file folder with question mark and startup manager will not run

    My son's MacBook Pro won't boot (gets the flashing file folder with question mark).  When I try to open startup manager (holding "option" key during boot does not do it).  Other posts suggest inserting the install disk, but I am pretty sure that for Lion, there was no disk, it was just off the website through the App Store.  Any further suggestions?

    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Sender File Adapter with file conversion

    Hi guys,
    I’m using a Sender File adapter with file conversion. The message to be processed has a structure with fixed lengths and in your content are some values that needs to be ignored.
    An example:
    value1  <b>value2</b>  value3…
    I want to ignore <b>value 2</b> but I can’t find a parameter for that! Do I need to define dummy fields on my data type and ignore those fields during mapping? Or there is a specific parameter for that?
    Thanks in advance,
    Ricardo.

    hi,
    there always is another way:)
    you can import the whole line to one field
    and cut it inside the adapter module
    (then you can define start and stop of the substring that you need to use)
    but of course it's not standard even though it's quite easy to achieve in java

  • File folder with question mark, file folder with question mark

    Battery died went to turn on computer with adapter plug...
    white screen with flashin file folder with a question mark???
    How do i fix this?

    That folder with the question mark icon means that the MacBook can't find the boot directory. That can either mean it can't find the hard drive or the Operating System data on the hard drive is somehow corrupted.
    Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    Or if you are running 10.7 Lion, boot from the recovery partition (Command +R on boot) and use Disk Utility to repair your OS 10.7 partition.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is, then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've clicked on the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions. After repairing use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for restarting from your hard drive.
    If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.

  • Hello, mac mini will not boot. I get a file symbol with a question mark, then a white screen, Hello, mac mini will not boot. I get a file symbol with a question mark, then a white screen

    Hello, My mac mini will not boot. When I turn it on, I get the chime, then the white screen, then the apple symbol, then a file symbol with a question mark, then the white screen and then it stays like that.
    Is this a bad hard drive?

    Sounds like it.  Try booting from your OSX restore DVDs - startup and hold down "C".  This will take AGES! Then run Disk Utility from the menu. 
    The flashing ? means your system is corrupt, dead, not there, on a dying HD, etc...
