  • School Network and Bridge- can't open RAW files

    Hi
    BACKGROUND:
    We are running Adobe CS3 in my school Mac lab (OS10.5 new iMacs and a couple of G5 towers). Students are assigned seats and log in to their home directory on the network xServe server. All their preferences, files etc are stored in their home directory, NOT on the individual computer station. Files are synced to their individual station while they work then saved back to their home directory at the end of their work time.. Students use card readers and use Adobe Photo Downloader to upload images to their Picture folder, which then are visible in Bridge.
    Today a student brought in his memory card with RAW files from his Canon digital SLR. He was working on the G5 tower. Generic icons for all his RAW files appeared in the Photo Downloader dialog box and we could not see the images. ACR has already been upgraded as far as it goes in CS3.
    I have classes of students, most with their own cameras. I am encouraging them to use camera RAW. What do I need to do in order to make sure ALL students can open their images from whatever camera they might have? I wish we can upgrade to CS4 (or 5 when that comes out) but there is no funding for that, so please give me another option.
    Thanks!
    Eileen

    RAW files from a camera that is too new to be supported directly with CS3's version of ACR can be first converted to DNG using the latest free DNG Converter available from Adobe, and then can be viewed in Bridge and ACR even though the original RAWs cannot.
    Your student's RAW files should be convertible in the latest version of Canon's Digital Photo Professional as well, which should have come on a CD with the camera as well as downloadable from Canon's website.

  • Bridge can't open CR2 File from 5D Markii

    I'm unable to view RAW/CR 2 image files shot with a Canon 5D Mkii in Bridge. I have no problem with CR 2 files from other cameras just this new one. I can view them on Canon's Browser, so I know the info's there, but I need ot work in Bridge and PS2.
    Is there a RAW upgrade for Bridge?
    Thanks,

  • Can't Open ACR files from Bridge in Photoshop CC 2014

    I Can't Open ACR files from Bridge in Photoshop CC 2014.  I have uninstalled the programs, and all other versions of PS several times, but no matter what I do, I can't open a raw file I have opened in Bridge, in PS CC 2014. I have to click Open in Photoshop CC 2014 in Bridge.
    Also, on my workstation PC (Win 7 64bit), if I don't open PS prior to opening Bridge, then when I try to open a file from bridge it says it can't run PS on an earlier Operating system than Win 7!
    I have done exactly the same instalation on my notebook, same OS, and everything works perfectly - I just don't understand.

    Guys! This question was asked almost two months ago, and still no-one has replied? I'm still stuck, no matter what I have tried, I cannot find a solution. And please don't ask me to re-install AGAIN, I've done this several times and it simply does not work.

  • Help! I can't open my files in ImageReady from Adobe Bridge

    I have Photoshop CS2. I recently wiped my hard drive and reinstalled the original factory software, and then reinstalled Photoshop CS2, and it has been a little glitchy ever since then. For example, I arrange my files in Adobe Bridge, and then when I go back to them later they are not in the order I put them in. The program is putting the .BridgeSort file in the folder, so that is not the problem. When I restart the computer, if the last folder I had open in Bridge was sorted, it will still be sorted when I reopen Bridge, but if I open another folder that I already sorted it reverts back to the way it was before I sorted it.
    Also, I can't open any files in Adobe ImageReady from Adobe Bridge. Before I wiped my computer, when I wanted to create a slideshow in ImageReady, I just selcted the files I wanted to open and then right-clicked and chose "open in / Image Ready", but now that doesn't even come up as an option. I have already tried uninstalling photoshop and reinstalling it but that didn't fix the problem.

    Try something like this:
    1. Use window explorer to find a jpeg on your computer
    2  Right click on that jpeg file and go to Open With>Choose Program
    3. If the box that says:Always use the selected program to open this kind of file
        is checked, uncheck it and then press the Browse button.
    4. Navigate to the location of the cs2 ImageReady program and double click on it, then
        press ok in the dialog and the jpeg should open in ImageReady.
    5. Close ImageReady and right click on the jpeg and hopefully ImageReady will be
        listed as a choice.
    Hopefully cs2 bridge will also show ImageReady as a choice for jpegs.

  • Can't open CR2 files in photoshop and camera raw

    This weekend I rented a Canon 5D Mark iii. I have downloaded the files and all of the thumbnails in camera raw say CR2 and when I try to open Photoshop does not recognize this product.
    I have:
    Photoshop CS4
    Camera Raw CS4
    Canon 5D Mark ii
    I have checked my updates folder and all my updates are current. Do I need to upgrade to CS5 or is there a way around this?

    Hi I recently had a problem opening CR2 files in PHotoshop cs4. I had to reinstall into a new computer, so obviously it installed the basic programme and not the updates.
    After trying everything, even calling the help desk, there was apparently nothing that can be donw as they no longer support cs4.
    I kept trying and found a you tube video, which i cant find again to add the link but i followed the link and with what I did earlier I can now open CR2 files in my photoshop cs4
    I found the relevany update that I needed to install and downloaded it, camera raw 5.2 ( Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Camera Raw 5.2 update )  this is the one for the Canon 5d Mk2
    After downloading it would not update the progeramme so I was in the same possition, but i noticed the files were there and i just needed to put them in the right place in photoshop so carried on looking for were to put the Plus In.
    This led me to the video.
    To the point.
    Download the update and save to a location where you will remember.
    open Adobe photoshop and go to "edit"
    Them " Preferences "
    then "General "
    Then " Plus-Ins"
    At the top you will see " Add Plug-Ins Folder " Check this box then navigate to the "win64" ( this is because mine is a windows 64 bit computer and the download is specific ) and Choose it.
    Shut down photo shop and try to open a raw.
    Bridge doesnt work for some reason but im going to keep looking.
    Hope this works for you as well.

  • 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!

  • Error message: "Dreamweaver can't open .jpg files"

    I'm using DW 8, and I have installed the 8.0.2 update. I'm
    having trouble inserting certain JPG images into a site. I get an
    error message pop-up that states "Dreamweaver can't open .jpg
    files". It will allow me to insert some jpg files, but not all of
    them. I've tried drag & drop and going through the Insert menu.
    The files are not large at all. Doesn't appear to be any problem
    with png's or gif's. It's incredibly frustrating. Anyone have any
    suggestions? TIA.

    > why was i taught that all my web images need
    > to be in 72dpi if it doesn't really matter?
    most people suggest 72 because it was an old standard with
    the early
    macintosh DTP programs. For web use it's easier to
    standardize on it because
    when you make an image, you have to put ~some~ number in the
    resolution box
    and it might as well be 72 as any other number. It simplifies
    moving image
    files around in different applications if they are all the
    same resolution.
    For display in a browser, these will all have the same file
    size and display
    size in a web page:
    600x600 pixels at 1dpi
    600x600 pixels at 72dpi
    600x600 pixels at 6000dpi
    It's when they are used in other applications or when a
    direct url like
    /photos/1.jpg is printed out that they may display in the
    resolution, not
    the pixel dimension.
    I came across a page once where the designer always saved his
    images with a
    resolution of 6000 dpi or some other odd number because he
    thought that if
    people dragged the image off the page to save it- most of
    them wouldn't be
    able to resize it. or some other idiot reason maybe.

  • Can't open raw files in 32 bit CS4

    Am using Vista 64 bit OS and because I recently purchased Nik Software's Complete Ed was necessary to change from initial set up of PS CS4 64 bit to 32 for their usage compatability. Had Camera Raw 5.0 on 64 bit version, copied camera raw 8bi plug in file format and placed in correct file format folder for the 32 bit version of PS. ...sounds easy enough...but when I attempt to open a raw file in PS or bridge it will not open and get message - Could not complete your request because of a program error.  Camera raw does show up and only once under the About Plug In submenu. Have tried Purge Cache option. Can still open raw files as always in 64 bit version, save and reopen 32bit version to continue but hoping for solution to eleminate that hassle. Thanks for your needed advice!  

    Plugin's have to be rewritten for a 64-bit environment so copying the 64-bit ACR to the 32-bit folder won't work.  You need the 32-bit version of ACR in the 32-bit CS4 folder.
    I'm not sure if the ACR 5.6 updater will work to update both versions, or if you need to download and install the plugin's manually. 
    You can get to the manual install ZIP by following the PSE link near the top of the regular ACR 5.6 page linked on the updates page:

  • Can't open PNG files in Photoshop CS5...??

    I'm seeing lots of threads with this problem but none of them seem to have an answer.
    For some reason right now when I try to open a PNG file in Photoshop it just crashes.  I end up with a neverending "hour glass".
    I had all of my website project directories on a network share.  As I'm no longer sharing all of these files with an office of people I decided to move all of these project files back to my own local machine.  Ever since I've done that I can't open PNG files in Photoshop anymore.
    Any information on what could have caused this, or more importantly, how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    I was able to edit PNG files just fine up until today, and the only thing I've done is move the files from the network share to my local hard drive.
    Any PNG, large or small won't work right now.  All of the other threads I see where people are talking about this say it's happening with their GIF files, too.  I just tried one here and the same thing happened.  From within Photoshop I did File -> Open, browsed to my image directory and the moment I clicked on one of the GIF files it locked up.
    So yeah, I'm certain it's isolated to my machine right now.  I just have no idea at all what could possibly be causing this.  The other threads are mentioning netework shares, too, but usually still trying to open over the network.  In my case it was working fine when I did it over the network, but now that I'm opening local files it's failing.

  • Can not open any files CS5  Win 7 64 bit

    I can not open any files in Photoshop.  I can open them in Bridge or LR.  If I open a file in Camera Raw and try to go to Photoshop, PS opens and just sits there and looks at me as if I opened the program only.

    Is this a new installation that has never worked, or is this a problem that has cropped up recently?
    In any case, there are two things you can do that between them have a very good chance of getting things working for you.
    1.  As a diagnostic, click Edit - Preferences - Performance, and uncheck (disable) the [ ] Enable OpenGL Drawing setting, then close and reopen Photoshop.  If this corrects the problem, then chances are good that your display driver needs to be updated.  To do so, go to the web site of the maker of your video card (e.g., nVidia or ATI) and follow the links to the driver download that matches your hardware and operating system.  When you've updated the driver and rebooted your system, re-enable the OpenGL Drawing setting (remembering to close and restart Photoshop) then re-test.
    2.  Clear all Photoshop preferences to standard defaults.  To do this, press and hold the Control, Shift, and Alt keys IMMEDIATELY after cold-starting Photoshop from its shortcut or menu entry.  If you're quick enough, it will prompt you.  You'll need to go through all the preferences again to ensure any customizations you want are re-done.
    Hope this helps!

  • Bridge won't open JPG files in Photoshop CS3

    I changed my preferences to remove the check-box "prefer Adobe camera RAW for Jpeg and TIFF files" , restarted Bridge and tried to open a JPEG from bridge directly into photoshop. But double clicking on the image in bridge opened "paint".
    So I change the Bridge preferences back to Prefer ACR for JPEG again, restart Bridge, and then bridge tells me that it cannot find Photoshop CS2. CS2 is not even loaded on this machine anymore.
    So then I go to the file type associations preferences and "browse" to the CS3 version of photoshop, restart bridge, and double click on a JPEG and it again says that CS2 cannot be found. I change the association again using the "browse" to CS3 and then it opens the image up in "Paint" again.
    Why won't Bridge open JPEG's in ACR anymore?
    Why won't bridge open JPEG's in Photoshop CS3 anymore?

    Bill, thanks for the reply. But I do not think that the file associations is the answer here. If I am using bridge to open files in ACR or Photoshop, I do not believe that I need to change the windows file type association. I have other PC's where the file association is not photoshop and bridge works fine opening these files. In fact, when using windows explorer to navigate JPG files, I do NOT want photoshop being opened to preview these images. On my other PC's, I can both preview JPG's using windows picture viewer, and open the JPG's via bridge in ACR. Furthermore, Photoshop CS2 is NOT the application listed for JPG's in the folder options in the control panel. So the problem that I have here has something to do with Bridge or perhaps something is corrupted int he files.
    The reason why I suspect a corruption, is that not all files behave in the same manner in bridge. Some files with the same extension open as I would expect, while others do not. I did not realize this fact when I made my original post.
