Aperture 3.6 and iPhoto 9.6 crashes with nikon .nef files (raw format)

I've got a problem with raw files support for my Nikon D700 camera. Even though this camera is listed here: https://www.apple.com/pl/aperture/specs/raw.html both Aperture and iPhoto see .nef files as a white image. If I try to edit one, both apps crash.
How can I get a raw files support in these applications?
I have updated os, apps and even tried to remove and reinstall raw camera bundle as it was described here RAW files suddenly show up as "not supported" (Aperture 3.5.1, OS X 10.10). No luck.
My OSX is installed on SSD, while iPhoto library is on the secondary HDD drive.

Norbert, I cannot find the post you are referring to.
Have you had the problem with Aperture 3.6? This is surprising, since the Aperture 3.6 released is supposed to fix this bug, see the release Notes: Aperture 3.6 Release notes
Aperture 3.6 Update
Adds compatibility with OS X Yosemite.
Fixes an issue that could cause Aperture performance to slow down while browsing through images with onscreen proofing enabled.
Fixes an issue where Aperture could become unresponsive in rare cases when adding to a shared photo stream.
Fixes an issue that could cause Aperture to unexpectedly quit when using the Write IPTC Metadata to Originals feature.
Aperture no longer displays the alert, “This library has been opened with a newer version of Aperture.” when using Library First Aid with libraries previously opened in iPhoto.
Do you remember, which of the presets in Library/Application Support actually is causing the problem, since deleting all of them is causing a lot of work to restore the custom settings? It would be great to know the specific file.

    I have Windows 8.1 installed on my Macbook Pro Retina (Late 2013) and it keeps on crashing with a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR BSOD error. Is this an issue with the bootcamp driver not compatible with Windows 8.1? or is there something I can do to fix this.
    I also keep getting WHEA-Logger Event-ID 19 warning events in the Windows Event Logs with the following details.

    likely win8.1 dont have official bootcamp support yet
    1/3 of my logins into win8.1 result in a fatal bluescreen

    I re-downloaded my Photoshop recently and Adobe Bridge no longer displays my Nikon NEF files and Camera Raw will not open them.  I get a message saying that Camera Raw does not support my camera type but it always has in the past.  The bridge no longer shows the picture view of my NEF files.  These are Nikon NEF files from the Nikon 5100 DSLR camera.  How do I fix this?

    When you re-installed Photoshop, you also re-installed the version of Camera Raw which shipped with Photoshop - in other words you reverted to an older version of Camera Raw which does not support the D5100.

    The D5100 was first supported in Camera Raw version 6.4.

  • Lighroom and Nikon NEF files

    I have some questions about Lightroom's handling of Nikon NEF files, specifically the parts of the NEF files that Nikon has decided it is a brilliant idea to encrypt. I am using a Nikon D200.
    How does Lightroom handle white balance in a NEF file? Has Adobe licensed the "mini-SDK" from Nikon, is the white balance estimated from the image data, or how is this done?
    And what about the sharpening (and other data?) - how does Lightroom handle that? Is it always the same (by camera)? Can the default settings be customized?
    I am also interested in knowing whether using NEF+JPEG enables Lightroom to use more of the image metadata, as white balance/etc is not encrypted in the JPEG file. Will using NEF+JPEG give me the in-camera settings for the data that is encrypted in the NEF file? I'd be happy to shoot RAW+JPEG with a small JPEG if it helps Lightroom with the in-camera settings.

    To answer your question, yes, Adobe has licensed the mini-SDK from Nikon in order to get at the encrypted white balance info. Nearly everything else is encrypted and inaccessible and can only be accessed by Nikon software.
    Ironically, all this has done is push me almost 100% in favour of DNG.
    Shooting NEF+JPEG will not get you anything more, in terms of more available data. Technically a NEF image will have an associated in-camera preview that Lightroom replaces with its own previews (no one wants to see the actual raw data, which hardly looks like an image). Apparently there is a limitation with Lightroom such that identically named image files differing only in extension will not be imported properly, anyway. Check the archives of this forum.
    The in-camera settings in the file are not useful for you unless you use Nikon imaging software.
    I've pretty much decided the following:
    - Shoot only raw, and let your camera and Lightroom generate the previews you need at the time.
    - Create a camera profile for importing those raw files. Every camera responds a little differently.
    - Either keep the raw files or convert to DNG for archival purposes. The arguments for and against this are easy to find elsewhere on these forums and on the web.
    If you need to be able to tweak your NEF images on the computer as if you were tweaking the camera controls /before/ taking the shot, you have to use Nikon software. I personally see little value in this, but your kilometreage will vary.

  • Camera Raw 5.5 Crashes on Nikon NEF, 5.4 Does Not

    I was successfully running the trial version of Photoshop Elements 7 with 5.4 of the raw file filter. I purchased the Premiere/Photoshop Elements 7 bundle, uninstalled the trial, and installed both full versions.
    I also downloaded Camera Raw 5.5 and installed it.
    With 5.5 I would receive "Adobe Photoshop Elements (editor) has stopped working" when opening a Nikon NEF file, and Elements would abort. Both x64 and x32 versions of the Camera_raw.8bi file would cause the same problem.
    I reinstalled 5.4 and it worked fine.
    Windows Vista Ultimate x64 Service Pack 1
    Inten Core2 Quad Q6600

    Are you sure that you only have one copy of the plug-in installed in the install directory at a time?

  • I have Photoshop CS5.5 Design Premium and need to open Nikon NEF files

    I have Photoshop CS5.5 Design Premium and need to open Nikon NEF files.
    I just downloaded the plug in for CS5.5 and it does not work. I put the Camera Raw.8bi file in the correct location as specifiec in the "read me" file.
    Can someone guide me on how to do this, adn make it work?
    Thank you.
    Jay

    so far no luck.
    I ran DNG program for Windows (I have Win 8) and ran the menu to convert
    the files on the same memory card from the camera.   Of 135 files, the
    status column for the first 68 files said "converted," but the for all the
    rest, it says "There was an error writing the file."
    Of the files that "converted," they do not open, and I get the same error
    message as before: "Could not complete your request because it is not the
    right kind of document."
    So, what a mess.
    I get conflicting indications of the version of Photoshop I have. When i
    click "About Photoshop in the Help menu, it says CS5 Extended.    The Error
    message for the dng files says CS5.1 Extended.  Does it make a difference?
    I've been at this three hours now.  It's a pain.   For many years I had no
    problem with NEF files, as I had installed the plug-in as required. This
    time it is not working. So I am not new to this.

  • PSE 13 and Nikon NEF files

    Considering upgrading to PSE 13 and was wondering if PSE 13 supports Nikon NEF files for a Nikon D5300 without an additional plugin. The D5300 is shown as supported for version 8.6 converter and I currently have PSE 10 and have to use the DNG converter on all NEF files which is not only a pain but time consuming.

    Hi,
    The D5300 is supported by camera raw 8.3 and later.
    PSE 13 includes camera raw 8.6 so should be able to read your files.

  • I have a JVC GY-HM100U and when I try to get the video files (MP4 format) off of the the SD card I get the error message OSStatus error -12909...any thoughts?

    I have a JVC GY-HM100U and when I try to get the video files (MP4 format) off of the the SD card I get the error message OSStatus error -12909...any thoughts?

    To be more precise: You MUST shoot in mov. Then drag the Clip bins from the card to you hard drive. Then drag the clips to FCP timeline and FCP asks you if you want to change to the right codec and of course you say YES. Now you can start editing. Can not be more simple. This camera was specially designed for use with FCP.

  • Imported RAW images badly corrupted, looks like red paint splashed all over the sky.  Photoshop and Iphoto have no problem with the images from my D800E.  Aperture worked fine for me in June with the same camera.  The Nikon software shows no problem.

    I am having a problem importing my images into Aperture 3 from my Nikon D800E.  The images appear as if red paint was splashed across the sky.  The Nikon software used to transfer from the camera does not show this problem and Photoshop 6 is fine with the images exported as jpg from the Nikon software.  Aperature does not even like the jpg images usable by Photoshop.  I am suspecting that Aperture is not correctly using the camera raw file.  Also, the histograms are radically different between the corrupted images and the Photoshop (good) versions.  Aperture worked just fine for me in June with the same camera.  All drivers and software are current as of this posting.  Anyone else out there seen this before??

    Are you sure you do not have Highlight Hot & Cold Areas turned on? (View->Highlight Hot & Cold Areas)?
    The bug in Digital Camera raw only affected Raw images. In your first post you wrote:
    Aperature does not even like the jpg images usable by Photoshop
    If the JPG's have the same problem then it isn't this bug.

  • IPhoto and Nikon NEF files in Yosemite

    Hello,
    Since I installed Yosemite last weekend, I cannot upload photos from my Nikon D610 NEF (RAW) format. Every time I have tried to upload -either by connecting the camera with the cable or by inserting the memory card in the Macbook- iPhoto starts to idle when I click "import photos". Beach ball appears and after several minutes iPhoto crashes. I use a Macbook Pro 2.8Ghz, intel core i7, 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 (late 2011). I even tried doing it one by one... same problem.
    Is this a problem that Apple is going to solve: NEF or RAW compatibility with iPhoto and Nikon files? Does anyone now how long for this to get fixed by Apple? I have hundreds of photos in my memory card to upload and work with.
    Thank you.

      Support for your camera was added in Camera Raw 5.4 which means support will be available in PSE7 and automatically in versions 8, 9 & 10.

  • Nikon NEF files and Aperture 2

    Can anyone advise how to allow adjustments to NEF files in Aperture 2?
    I just bought a Nikon D700 after using a Canon w/out problems for years.
    I imported to iPhoto and then to Aperture. All the files appear in view but adjustments are ghosted out and it says are "not enabled".
    I have NX2 but find it clunky and would prefer to use Aperture.
    I'm appealing for help after spending nearly all weekend trying to get it to work.
    Very grateful for any advice!

    I would guard against upgrading to Ap 3, particularly if you are running 10.6.4, unless you are willing to face head on the issues raised in this thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2470180&tstart=15&start=0.

  • Iphoto library rebuild crashes with KERN_PROTECTION _FAILURE error

    My first post - and throwing myself to the mercy of the forums for help. Appreciate your ideas and help
    My problem started with installing iLife '11. As part of the instal it must rebuild the iphoto library. I got my EXCBADACCESS / KERNPROTECTIONFAILURE error. This led to me regressing back to the previous version of iPhoto (8.1.2
    The good news is that I can open my iPhoto library. Everything works well, no problems at all. I have about 40,000 images plus slideshows, photobooks, -> that s a lot of meta data and I dont want to lose it
    Now I need to get my iPhoto library in tip top condition - and then I can upgrade to the new version. However when I rebuild (ticking the first three tick boxes) it always crashes.
    I read on a post that .MOV files can upset iPhoto. So I deleted these from my library and imported them into iMovie instead
    I also had a troublesome corrupt photobook - so I deleted that
    I tried rebuilding the library with iPhoto Manager - but gave up when I read that the slideshows and photobooks do not transfer across
    I have the library backed up - so I can try different destructive ideas. But at 8 hours + to rebuild the library (it fails very very near the end of the process) and then about 12 hours to restore from backup then it takes a long time
    The failure is always the same high level message - with slightly different detailed logs
    I will paste one example below - just the first three pages - you can have more if you need
    Also please note the library lives on the internal HDD of the computer
    Appreciate any help

    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Mail and iPhoto not working well with Mountain Lion..

    Is it true that Mountain Lion has been a big disappointment?
    I am helping a friend with his computer and what it is doing is NOT normal. He has Mountain Lion, I have read not very nice reviews. Mail and iPhoto are not comunicating properly; 'sleep mode' takes forever  and other small bugs that I am not used to having with a Mac. Any advice? Thanks!

    Any advice?
    Sure. Here's some advice. If you have a question ask it. Give detail. Explain what the problem or issue actually is. Don't editorialise, just ask the question.

Maybe you are looking for
