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.

  • 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?

    Please help.
    Thanks in advance,

    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!

  • Rh9:Unable to view PDF files from search results in Firefox

    Is this a Firefox plug-in issue, rather than a Robohelp issue?
    Background info:

    Any ideas?
    Thank you,

    I think it is an Acrobat issue. I have seen it and with PDFs not linked to Fm or Rh. Sometimes you can see the issue and sometimes you don't. I also have Nitro PDF and that displays the PDF without problems.
    If it is a PDF you create, I guess you could try some different settings or use something else to create it to see if the problem goes away.

  • Unable To View PDF Files From Google Mail

    This is probably a GMail problem, but it's on my iPod Touch so I thought I'd ask.
    Up until recently, I've been able to view PDF files that have been attached to emails in GMail on my iPod Touch. However lately, I've been getting the following error message when I click on the PDF file:
    +Server Error+
    +We're sorry, but Google Mail is temporarily unavailable. We're currently working to fix the problem -- please try logging in to your account in a few minutes.+
    Well, I've done the logging out and logging back in, and it doesn't work.
    When I try to download the files on my computer, it works fine.
    Is anybody else experiencing this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

  • CR2 files from CANON will corrupted when preview by Adobe bridge

    Hello Frides
    This problem started for me since Sep 2012, on CS5 and CS6
    Windows 7 Ultimate
    64 GB Ram
    Quad Core i7
    ACR 7.3
    ACR 6.2
    Camera Canon 5D M2
    The problem is when I preview my archive files it corrupt the as well; I can see the CR2 file using ACDsee Pro 5 but when I convert them to Tiff or JPEG it export the corrupted file.
    The scary part is if I'm losing my archive CR2 files,
    I can’t open these file in Canon Digital Photo Professional after they damaged with Adobe.
    This evening I was working on a photo and export it as Tiff , when i change directory in Bridge the same CR2 file corrupted!!!!!
    I delete the XMP file associated with the CR2 didn’t help, its look like when bridge try to update the thumbnail somehow it
    I tested on my portable workstation
    Lenovo w701ds
    16 GB Ram / i7 QC / Window7 Pro
    stil get this random problem.
    CHecked the CF card / Card reader / all my cables  on both PC's
    My problem is a software problem
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!   SOS

    I have tried all of those and different versions/order of import, different drives and different cards.
    Sorry, cross posting the same time it seems.
    I just put the image back on the memory card and checked it in the camera and it views normally in the camera.
    Again, you are not viewing the Raw file at the back of the camera, it can't show because the Raw data needs to be first demosaiced using a dedicated Raw converter like ACR or Canon DPP. What you see is the embedded jpeg preview the camera produces for this purpose and for using in Finder and other systems that can only view jpeg.
    I did try downloading it to a different hard drive directly from the camera...I was able to view the image for about 30 seconds before it corrupted. As I mentioned, for this particular image I actually did a full ACR edit and created a jpg from the RAW file yesterday.
    Here we are getting to the strange part of the problem. Can you provide a screenshot of the problem file?
    When this happened about 6 months ago, after re-creating a file in the adobe library (unfortunately I can't remember where it was or what the file name was)...it stopped.
    That probably would mean the Cache file and plug in from the User library / caches/ Adobe/ Bridge CSxx / Cache and plug in
    or from same user library / preferences / Bridgexx plist file. Both files are recreated fresh and empty after restarting Bridge
    I was actually able to go back to the corrupted images (4 out of 6) and view the corrupted images and edit them normally!
    Try to reset the default setting in ACR
    It just started again recently and I have 5 or 6 images that it's happened to. The first 5 corrupted as soon as I loaded them in ACR, this is the first one that corrupted after I edited it. I've tried opening them in iphoto and Canon DPP and they initially preview normally and then corrupt once they fully load the jpg preview.
    Can you show both results from ACR and DPP in a screenshot?

  • Bridge 5.4 doesn't show thumbnails of .CR2 files from Canon 50D

    I downloaded bridge5.4 now my CR2 files taken from my Canon50D are not loaded as thumbnails in Bridge, the drop down menu displayed when clicking on them does not show the "Open in Camera Raw fundction". What should I do?

    If after purging the cache and rebuilding it and camera raw still does not work it either means the current version does not support the camera (if new camera), you have the ACR file in the wrong folder, or there is more than one version in the folder.
    Open up PS and click on help/about plug-in/camera raw.  It will tell you what is there.

  • Unable to open raw files from canon d70 in elements 12 help

    hi. just purchased elements 12 as i was told it would open my canon d70 raw files. have installed elements 12 and done the update from the update box in elements but still it wont open raw files. any help would be greatly appreciated.

    There is probably a way to hack your system into work with ACR 8.3 using the plug-in ZIP file from this page and copying it manually to the specific folder where it needs to go:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/camera-raw-84-support-policy.html#To%20run%20Came ra%20Raw%20on%20Mac%20OS%2010.6,%20Windows%20XP,%20or%20Windows%20Vista,%20remove%20the%20 8.4%20plug-in%20and%20manually%20reinstall%20Camera%20Raw%208.3
    Download the 32-bit version of ACR 8.3 from the page, above.
    Unzip it to the file Camera Raw.8bi.
    Copy that new Camera Raw.8bi over the top of the existing one in this folder:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 12\File Formats
    Then install the DNG Converter 8.3 as mentioned in the page, above.

  • Bridge stops recognizing it's own .xmp files from Canon 5DMKIII

    I use Bridge to add keywords to my RAW files. I use both a Canon 1D MKII and a Canon 5D MKIII camera. I use Canon's "Digital Photo Professional" (DPP) to process my RAW files because I prefer the colors (I am a picky perfectionist, so don't try and convince me to use ACR to process my RAW files!) When I make changes to my RAW files shot with the 5DMKIII in DPP and "save" the changes to the RAW files, Bridge suddenly doesn't recognize the file's associated .xmp file, and my keyword association is lost. If I simply open the file in TextEditor and re-save it, suddenly Bridge recognizes the file again. RAW images shot and processed with this same procedure from my Canon 1D MKII don't exhibit this problem.
    This thread from a couple years ago is the same problem I am experiencing:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2933287#2933287
    Is there any other solutions to this? I shoot several thousand images per weekend, and opening each file in TextEdit and saving is NOT an option!
    Please help!
    P.S., I'm using Bridge CS5.1 v 4.1.0.54

    Birds of a feather you and I, except that (with the help of a very nice forum member here) I have actually managed to get the same color out of Camera Raw that I get from Canon, so that is now my default in Camera Raw.  Unfortunately, we created a profile for a different camera than you have (I use a 40D), so it is not applicable for you.  But I just wanted to comment to say that I know EXACTLY how you feel. 
    Sorry, I don't have much to offer re: help for your .xmp issue.

  • Viewing Raw files from Canon G15 in Aperture

  • After updating Firefox, I am unable to open word attachments from my Outlook email, although the download works when I check emails in Internet Explorer

    Following a Mozilla update, Jave console has been disabled and is incompatible with the new upgrade. I'm not sure if this is affecting my ability to open word documents that are attached to email, but I am unable to do this when I open my emails though Firefox. If I open them in Internet Explorer, the .doc file will open normally. I just prefer to use firefox rather that internet explorer

    I just got off the phone with support. First, he claimed that WAV files are not supported (although the user guide claims it is). Next, he suggested that WAV files that are transfered through BB Desktop will work, but not files that are downloaded from attachments. Finally, he stated that the file must be in the Music folder in order to work. I was able to use AIR Browser to move the file over to the Music folder, but it still won't play. When BB Desktop syncs music files over, does it create a specific subdirectory in the Music folder? Has anyone been able to get a WAV file to play (regardless of how it got on to the PlayBook)?

  • Most recent RAW update, New Aperture and Maverick but still Aperture cannot view RAW files from my Sony RX-100 camera.

    I have all the most recent Software updates and a brand new version of Aperture but when I connect my Sony RX-100 to my MBP, Aperture cannot view or import the RAW files. It will import JPEG format. I am new to Aperture and would appreciate some advice here. Do I need an old RAW format update or is there something else I need to do here.
    Thanks for any help.

    Keith, the latest raw support claims to have fixed issues with the RX-100 raw support:
    Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 5.03This update adds RAW image compatibility for additional cameras to Aperture 3 and iPhoto '11. Jan 16, 2014
    This update adds RAW image compatibility for the following camera to Aperture 3 and iPhoto '11:
    Canon EOS M2
    It also includes fixes that:
    Resolve an issue that prevented lens correction from working properly with Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 images
    Address a color cast issue on some Olympus OM-D E-M1 images
    The RX-100 has been supported since earlier, but the previous raw support has introduced a bug.
    itunesisbullshitplopcrapshould update the raw support. 
    This requires Aperture 3.5. and Mavericks.
    Correction: This requires

  • Photoshop CC: unable to open Raw files from Canon T1i

    I am trying to edit photos in the raw CR2 format I took with my Canon T1i.  I cannot get the new Photoshop CC to open them.  I think I need a plug in to do this but cannot find out where to download the plug in.  Please send a link to the plug in 5.4 for windows and how to download it so i can finish editing the photos I have.  Thanks!

    The Canon T1i has been supported by Photoshop since Photoshop CS4 (via an upgrade to ACR 5.4).
    The Adobe Camera Raw plugin has been able to read T1i Raw files out-of-the-box in Photoshop since CS5.
    Something else must be happening.

    Cannon 6D requires CS6 with ACR 7.3.  You either have to upgrade or convert to DNG files.
