Another missing RAW Preview problem....

I have CS4, on Windows 7 64-bit, and was using Bridge5.5... EVERYTHING worked fine EXCEPT that Lightroom 2.6 complained when going to CS4 that it didn't like 5.5 and wanted 5.6. I checked but there didn't appear to be an "installation kit" for 5.6 for Windows 7, 64-bit so I got the download at
www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4624.
Copied the Camera Raw.8bi file to the two directories on my system where Camera Raw.8bi files currently resided:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats\Camera Raw.8bi (13644 KB, 3/3/2010 3:17:16 PM)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats\Camera Raw.8bi (13644 KB, 3/3/2010 3:13:43 PM)
Started Lightroom and CS4, and things appear to be happy......
THIS MORNING, I started Bridge. And suddenly I have icons for my .NEF files instead of previews. And now Camera Raw on my
context menu. I can double click and they'll open in the Camera Raw in CS4, but nothing in Bridge.....
ALL I did was follow the instructions and copy the new plugins to where they were....... What the heck did I do wrong?

I"m not sure if this will help, but I just tried running the update from
Camera_Raw_5_6_updater.zip...
Ran the setup and got the following on the "Photoshop Camera Raw (64 bit) popup screen:
Cannot Install Please click the Quit button
Photoshop Camera Raw 5.6 - Already Installed
Photoshop Camera Raw (64 bit) 5.6 - Photoshop Camera Raw (64 bit) not installed
and all I can do is push Quit..........
If the 32 bit version is installed (which I'm guessing since the message is NOT very informative), HOW DO I GET RID OF IT?
And/or HOW do I get this #$%^& installer to just install the right plugin?

Just resolved the Bridge CS4 no-RAW-preview problem

I trashed the ACR 5.7 update I downloaded yesterday with the previous ACR 5.6 I had on my cloned drive and now Bridge does indeed show previews with RAW files, just as it has before. I'm hoping the Lightroom 2.7 update I also did yesterday will still play nice with 5.6. I'll find out.
Adobe has a problem with 5.7, I think.

No; ACR 5.7 is fine.
From what you said in your other thread, you were using the wrong folder to house the Camera Raw plug-in.
Here's a screen shot from and old post:
Note that the plug-in for CS4 is in a different folder from that of CS3. Also make sure you are NOT in your user library but your Root Level Library.

Missing Camera Raw Preview Button CS6

Something I use on a regular basis in Camera Raw CS5 is the Preview button to get a visual sense of adjustments I make in RAW before going into photoshop. I was recently upgraded to CS6 at work and in RAW the Preview button is missing. Does anyone have any knowledge of what's going on? Is this one of the number of changes made from CS5 to CS6?
The first image shows what my current CS6 RAW page looks like, missing the preview button.
The second image shows the preview button on CS5, which I would sure like to have on CS6 RAW.
I'm enclosing two images? the first

When i open my Canon RAW-files with preview or transfer them to another program using preview they change to color despite the fact that they where all shot in B/W... How to change this?

When i open my Canon RAW-files with preview or transfer them to another program using preview they change to color despite the fact that they where all shot in B/W... How to change this?

I shoot only RAW - no JPEG-files except those visualizing the files on my memorycard or computer. I think i have to refine my question;
1. I know there is possible to make B/W HDR-images.
2. I know the best HDR images are based on RAW-files.
3. When i transfer the images in question to a HDR software they change, so when i view them in the software (either Preview or the HDR software) they are suddenly viewed (and processed) in color.
4. This never happend on my PC so i know it has to do with either Finder or Preview.
5. Do i have to make all my B/W HDR-images on the PC or is it a way for me to change how Finder/Preview show/alter my images?

Bridge CS4 5D Mark ii RAW preview.

I can't preview Raw thumbnails in Bridge cs4 from my 5d mark ii. I can open them but not preview them. I installed plugin 5.3 update in the right place but no cigar. A year ago I had the same problem with another computer and I adjusted a slider which corrected everything. I'm on a Mac os 10.8. Please help.

If there are no images on the hard-drive, do you mean you are you viewing old images off an external drive, then, or perhaps off the camera’s memory card in a card reader?
To simplify things, try using Finder to copy a brand-new 5D.2 image from a memory card to a newly created folder on your internal hard-drive and then look at it with Bridge and see what happens. Also try flipping to high-quality thumbnails in Bridge.
Otherwise, someone with Mac experience may have to chime in, to confirm if a Mac version of Bridge has its own version of Camera Raw separate from Photoshop, with the possibility of only the PS one has been updated, somehow. You could do a search of your entire hard-drive and see how many Camera Raw plug-ins you find and if their timestamps all match the most recent one you updated. You could also do an Adobe Plug-Ins within Photoshop and see if there is more than one instance listed. This happens if a new ACR is put into the wrong folder and PS still finds it during the initial plug-in scan.
If Adobe has a fix, then someone here likely knows what it is.
To confirm, your subject says RAW Preview, but you’re not able to see either thumbnails or the larger one-at-a-time previews, and the only thing that seems to work is when you choose Open in Camera Raw from w/in Bridge, you can see it and work with it.

Icon Preview Problem in Finder

Hi,
I've had my new MacBook for about a month now, and as my photo collection has grown I'm starting to notice that while using CoverFlow (which I have as the default view for most of my folders), there are always some icons that appear as a generic JPEG icon instead of having the image preview. This problem goes away (all icons have previews) once I open the same folder again or refresh it somehow (for example by selecting Calculate All Sizes in View Options). However, once I restart/log in again, it happens again. Most of the images are normal JPG's from the web, and which ones have missing previews is completely random. This applies to all of my folders, and I've seen the same thing on several other Macs as well (the family iMac and several others in Apple Stores). This only appears in CoverFlow view, though.
Here are a couple of screenshots to illustrate the problem:
http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l4/Octavarius/Screenshot-IconsinFinder.jpg
http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l4/Octavarius/Screenshot-IconsinFinder2.jpg
Does anyone else also experience this issue? Is it a common issue? The Show Icon Preview option is checked, by the way.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Jacob

Keep in mind that it's the icons below the Cover Flow section that are the problem. The blurry photos in the Cover Flow section on the first screenshot have very small resolution, that's why they're blurry, but if you look in the second pic, you'll see some others that are completely sharp. Just in case you misunderstood.
I do sometimes get blurry pictures in the Cover Flow section, just after they're downloaded, but once I log out and back in, they're fine and stay that way.
Once I click Get Info on an icon that's missing the preview it's immediately refreshed and the preview is there again, as it should be. It seems like Finder is sometimes skipping certain previews the first time you open a folder since log in.
What did you mean by custom icon? How do you set/delete one?

Smart Sharpen preview problem

CS4, Mac Pro 2.6 quad, 10.4.11, 5gb RAM, 7300GT video card.
Working with smart sharpen filter, the preview does not update but the file window does. However, achieving the desired results using the file window does not translate to the image after the filter finishes. In fact, it looks as if only a small portion of the filtration has taken effect. Could this be another GPU Open GL problem? Try different settings in smart sharpen, even some very drastic ones, each time the results were much less.

And are you viewing the sharpened file at 100%? No other percentage view will do.

RAM Preview Problems in After Effects CC

AE CS 6 RAM Previews work, but two problems to report with AE CC on the same computer. Possibly two faces of the same problem.
1. Having QuickTime Player open while doing a RAM preview makes the RAM preview stutter. I quit the player, and now the RAM preview plays back without dropping a frame, though Info palate shows "fps: 24 (realtime)", but the RAM preview playback is slow: ie, a tenor sounds like a baritone.
2. A RAM preview that looked and sounded fine last night, is now playing back slowly (tenor sounds like a baritone), though Info Palate shows "fps: 24 (realtime)". I have no other applications open. The only thing that changed is that I quit AE, slept the computer, slept a little myself, and then launched AE. Trashing the cache files (manually), rebooting, relaunching and re-RAM-previewing creates a functional RAM preview, so I assume there is some problem with the cached files or the retrieval of them.
Is anyone else getting either of these? If so, what is your system configuration?
Also, I posted on another thread that Quicktime import/render works with AE CS6 on this computer, but AE CC can not import, play, or render QT reliably (without throwing error messages). Perhaps all of this is part of the same problem.
Thoughts?
Cheers,
Benjamin
CS 6 CC | Mac OS 10.8.4 | MacPro5,1 | 96 GB Ram | PROJECT & MEDIA drive: Mercury Accelsior > 500 MB/s read/write | CACHE drive: Mercury Accelsior > 500 MB/s read/write | Nvidia Quadro 4000 Mac | CUDA Driver: latest update | Wacom Intuos 5

96 GB RAM is accessible in 10.8.4 on my machine according to OWC. I'm working on a stereoscopic 4K project with large files and hundreds of layers. I regurlarly render with AE MP while working with huge files in PS, and am glad to see the % of RAM AE uses displayed in my render cue between 3 and 60%.
I have 12 processors (24 with hyperthreading)
I have reserved 10 for other applications leaving 14 for After Effects
4 GB per x 14 = 56 GB for AE. leaving 40 GB for everything else
I've played with what and how much I have allocated being sure to keep the CPU counts even, but this does not fix the RAM preview problems described above. Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Benjamin

CS4 Premiere Pro General file format & preview problems

I was redirected here after posting my complaint on Twitter, so please excuse my forum manner.
I've been using Adobe Premiere Pro (CS4) for about a year now, and I've been editing videos along with other packages with no problem. (Only problem being my slow processor). Up until last week Premiere Pro has been completely fine. But seeing I have a project deadline next month, I thought I would spend a day trying to kick-start the video editing.
My source videos were originally photograph-frames animated in Flash CS4 into .MOV, decided to use the H.264 output codec. As I have finished exporting my needed videos, I imported them into Premiere Pro as usual, as I have in the past. But then I encountered the common problem that I have seen quite a few have also encountered with .MOV, or jsut general "no-preview" problem when the source video is fine.
I then took a day to research online about Premiere Pro's compatability with .MOV, among other container and formats. Upon using softwares such as MediaInfo and GSpot, I found that there might have been a problem with missing Codecs within my Adobe package. I then tried to convert the .MOV into .MPG (mpeg2), hoping such standard codec would work with Premiere Pro as they they in the past. No result avail.
I then turned to the uninstall route (retaining user info) and re-installing. The problem has NOT been fixed, what's more is that it crashes almost instantly after I try rendering the workplace. (Even post-rendering does not show the preview, but the files in the Adobe folder, does). Here's a screencap to my latest workplace, if it helps:
[IMG]http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k83/neo0031/AdobePreProcap.jpg[/IMG]
Before the re-install, I believe I was running Premiere Pro CS4's latest update (4.2.x) something, now it is back to 4.0.0. But I don't think that is where the main problem is? I recently changed my locale from a certain language to Japanese to run a certain program. Would that be causing the problem(s)?
Does anyone know a way that I can FIX this? Any help is appreciated and I thank you all in advance.
I am using a Sony Vaio NS series laptop,
a 2.0 GHz Intel Pentium Dual Core processor
3GB RAM,
intergrated graphics Intel Chipset Family Series 4( I think).
Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit.
I tried moving the Scratch disks from an external portable hard drive to the local hard drive, to no result.
Again, any help is appreciated. I would appreciate direct advice rather than links. Thanks again.
Neo.

I have updated my CS4, Ppro to 4.2.1. The problem still remains. Would it have anything to do with my project setting? I don't have much knowledge to setting one up. The difference between the AVC projects and etc?
EDIT : I took the problem to my lecturer, and he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, but his "magic touch" click on the preview panel (Main composition) has made the video show up! But even after render, it won't play. But scrubbing along frames is now fixed. Any idea what's causing the no-preview-playback?

I have download the after effcts CC via Creative Cload ... and it was working fine until a few weeks ago.
But now every time i want to make a RAW PREVIEW on a project composition ... it shows me the following error "After Effects error: Raw Previem needs 2 or more frames to playback".
This is the frist time i had this problem ... i have seached the net, for solutions and the only thing that worked th frist time was to Purge the All Memory and Disc Cache, but now that does not work
Can someone please tell me the solution please ??
Regards ASilva

Lol ... i was ready to send a screen shot an try to reply those answer ... and the damn after effects is working again ... don't ask me why because i don't know.
but either way here are the answers and my replys:
1- What exact version of After Effects?
R: Downloaded After effects Creative Cloud and instaled the program from there so i guess i have After effects CC version 12.2.1
2- Have you installed the recent updates?
R: no i haven't i have instaled the program 2/3 weeks ago ... and do i need to have the Creative Cloud intaled to do them ?? my teacher said i needed to unistal it.
3- Operating system and Machine i use are on my profile
4- What versions of drivers for your graphics hardware do you have installed (including CUDA driver and driver for display adapter) ?
R: I have the 334.89 graphic controler from Nvidia, and PhysX - 9.13.1220, Virtual Audio 1.2.20 also from Nvidia
5- Do you have any third-party I/O hardware (e.g., AJA, Matrox, Blackmagic, MOTU)?
R: No i only have a cooler and a mouse
6- What kind(s) of source footage?
R: humm i don't know i use normal .mp3 musics from the net and .wav and use images .jpg and .png
7- If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
R: "After Effects error: Raw Previem needs 2 or more frames to playback"
8- What were you doing when the problem occurred?
R: Nothing ... i simpli completed the project ... Cloud prewiew it once ... and then caput ... could not do more prewiews
9- Do you have QuickTime installed.
R: No i don't have ... my teacher said it was not necessary.
10- What other software are you running?
R: Right now ... i have Bridge, Audition, After Efects, Ilustrator, Photoshop, Flash, Indesing, Premier and Dreamweaver, instaled on my PC ... i also Have Blender a 3D Program, don't know if it is important though.
11- Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed?
R: Do you consider Video Coplilot 3D element and Red Giant Trapcodes effects and MPC Codec pack in this category ... then yes i have.
These last questions i don't understand what you meant by them so i left them
Are you using OpenGL features in After Effects?
Does the problem only happen with your final output, RAM preview, or both?
Are you using Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously multiprocessing?
Are you using the ray-traced 3D renderer?
If the problem is with output, give your exact output settings (both render setting and output module settings). Screenshots help.
What is the exact sequence of steps that you are taking?
With Regards ASilva
PS: Tomorrow will see if it gives me the error again

Missing raw file driver for Canon S90

I miss raw file driver for Canon S90. The software delivered with the camera works, but it doesn't work in finder, Aperure and so on, just in Canons own software. When will the driver be available for SL?

Apple hasn't said anything about it, but they're always quiet on everything (I think this works to their advantage for new products, but it works to their detriment for product updates.)
Anyway, they recently released the latest Camera RAW update and surprised a lot of people by not including the S90. Adobe had problems with the S90 -- images would "load" but looked poor. I can only guess Apple also had problems and decided to push it to a later date rather than hold up the whole stack of RAW camera updates people had been waiting on (typically they release an update with support for a list of cameras).

Aperture applying D7000 jpg WB to RAW previews--I do NOT have that selected

I have always, and still have, set Aperture to NOT apply jpeg settings to RAW previews. Now, with my new D7000, it is doing this no matter what I do. I have the Preview settings in Aperture preferences with the apply jpeg settings Unchecked.
I do NOT have this problem with my D90.
Any help resolving this would be greatly appreciated, as would anyone else experiencing this problem chiming in (in case there is an issue with the D7000 RAW conversion in Aperture 3)
I have the latest versions of Aperture, Mac Os 10, etc.

Chromey,
I am importing only RAW files. The setting I mentioned in Aperture is to allow it to use the settings for the imbedded jpeg to generate the previews in Aperture. RAWs have imbedded jpeg data, since even if you only shoot RAW in camera, there is a small jpeg that needs to be created for your camera LCD.
I think this setting is a red herring with respect to your problem. The setting you are chasing is only to allow Aperture to show you a preview quickly, *while it is importing*. I.e., before Aperture parses the 12MB RAW file, it can parse the first 40K of it and extract the embedded JPG to show you. If you were to walk away from your computer as soon as you hit "import" and then come back only after it was done, the setting would be meaningless.
The real issue is that Apple's RAW decoding is applying the white balance, as indicated in the metadata. There have been a couple threads recently about this sort of thing, but I cannot seem to find them right now. Interestingly, though, I think the other threads were questioning why Aperture was not applying some of the attributes to the RAW decoding for a particular camera.
I guess I do not know what the right answer is. I am actually very happy to be able to set white balance in my Canon XTi and have Aperture apply that setting.

DW CS5 Missing Related Files Problem

Hello
Hoping somebody may be able to help me with a missing related files problem in CS5. I've tried Adobe phone support but they couldn't solve the problem.
*Some* of my sites (but not all) are not showing all the files related to that page. My pages are typically in .asp vb server model and contain .asp virtual includes (header, nav etc) plus .js and .css linked files
However DW is only showing the .asp includes as related files and not css or js ones. In design view the CSS is displaying correctly, and all styles appear in the CSS inspector but not showing as a related file in the bar. In CS4 it works fine.
I've tried deleting the site and recreating it, copying the files to a new folder and setting up a fresh site, creating a new folder and downloading all files from the remote server but no joy. I've also tried refreshing related files. if I click on the filter in the bar it only shows the asp includes and nothing else.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated, this is a great feature when it works
Cheers
MB

UPDATE:
Managed to solve this problem, this is a new issue to DW CS5, previous versions do not seem to exhibit this problem
It occurs when you use site root rather than document relative paths for js/css etc files AND don't have the remote site url (web url) specified in the site setup | local info dialog, or do not have it fully qualified with http://
ie. ../js/file.js works fine without a remote web url but /js/file.js does not show the related file in the bar unless a remote url is defined.
Hope that helps anyone else that encounters the same issue!
