Camer Raw Plug-in Issue
When sending a photo from LR5 to CS5 I get a message saying this version of LR may required the photoshop camera raw plug-in version 8.2 for full compatibility. I don't know what to do?
Photoshop CS5 uses ACR 6.x. You need Photoshop CS6 or later to have Camera Raw rendering compatibility, or render the image as Tiff when doing an Edit In > Photoshop CS5.

Installer, application manager and camera raw plug in issues
Hi - I need help.
I'm running on Windows 7. I have just upgraded Photoshop to CS5.5 from CS4 (on my laptop not a creative cloud version). I have since uninstalled Photoshop CS4. I was trying to install the camera raw plug in 6.7.1 but it would not install and I got a message saying that the application manager was damaged and to download it again. I have downloaded the application manager file but cannot install it. I am getting the "installer failed to initilize" message. I've read through the forums on this and cannot find a solution.
I have extracted the file so I am not trying to open a zip file. I have downloaded a second time to a different location and tried installing again while logged into creative cloud but got the same message. I saw the comment about deleting the Adobe/OOBE folder and trying again but was wary about doing this as I don't know what this folder is. Can someone tell me what this is and why I would delete it?
I don't think I had this issue before I uninstalled CS4. I think I had already downloaded a camera raw plug in for that version. So I am wondering if deleting CS4 caused the issue.
I then downloaded CS6 cloud version thinking that perhaps I would get application manager installed correctly within that. I have now been able to install the camera raw plug in and this is now working in CS5.5 but strangely still cannot run the setup.exe for the application manager (So perhaps it is just a problem with Installer?).
Can someone tell me if application manager is just relevant for cloud based products or is it required for desktop versions as well? Could creative cloud be interferring with my desktop version? Where can I find the application manager files? If I uninstall CS6 will I have the same problem with application manager not working in future? I do not really want to use a cloud based version (CS6) and don't want to keep unnecessary programs on my laptop.I signed up to Creative Cloud when both desktop and cloud versions were supported and may not continue when my subscription expires.
To fix this problem without CS6 do I need to reinstall CS5.5? (To do this I will have to reinstall CS4 as it was an upgrade version). Would just reinstalling CS4 fix the problem? Can I just reinstall the application manager part of either of these or is there a simpler solution?
Thanks in advance as I am not super tecchie and am running out of ideas.Hi
I have Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection but have only installed Photoshop and Bridge ( this includes files associated with that install). Since installing that I have also installed Photoshop 6 (with Bridge etc).
The issue I had in Photoshop 5.5 was I was unable to read files from Canon EOS 5D Mark 2. I was trying to install the camera raw plug in 6.7.1 to fix this. I got a message saying that the application manager was damaged and to download it again. I downloaded the application manager file (adobe application manager 8) but couldn't install it. I got an "installer failed to initilize" message.
So I downloaded CS6 to see if that would fix the application manager issue. I have now been able to install the camera raw plug 6.7.1 and this is now working in CS5.5. So the initial problem is fixed for now but what I want to know is -
- Is the Application Manager associated with the version or does it stand alone as a separate file?
- If I now uninstall Photoshop 6 will the Application Manager uninstall also, or will it continue to work in 5.5?
- What is the best way to uninstall version 6 - should I do this through Application Manager not Windows Control Panel? I cannot see where to do this.
The Adobe site says to start AAM by :
Choose Help > Updates in a Creative Suite 5 product.
Double-click PDApp.exe in the following locations: Windows 64 bit: \Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\core\
If I chose Help in Photoshop 5.5 - the update option is greyed out and not available.
If I follow the second option I get the Creative Cloud Application Manager (version 9) offering me updates for version Photoshop 6 only.
How can I find out if I have a working Application manager for 5.5?
What is the best way to uninstall version 6?
You are right I have found folders / files which need to be cleaned up from CS4 eg: plug ins and a lot of empty folders. What is the best way to clean up these - can I just delete them in Windows Explorer?
Sorry this is long - I am learning as I go

Bridge wont recognizw my Nikon d610. I am running windows 8 and photoshop cs6 with 8.6 camera raw plug in. How can I get bridge to recognize my camera? Thanks!!
That camera model has been supported since ACR 8.3 and it is most certainly supported by ACR 8.6 and ACR 8.7 (beta).
Either you have damaged, corrupt image files, or a faulty Photoshop and/or ACR installation.
If there are no privacy issues, you can post one of your files to the FTP service of your choice (such as Dropbox or yousendit.com), post the link to it, and someone here can take a look at it for you. -
Invoking Photoshop CS5 from Lightroom 4 asks for Camera Raw Plug-in 7.0
I have just downloaded and installed Adobe Lightroom 4.0. When I try to invoke "Photo / Edit in Photoshop CS 5.1" I get the warning "This version of Lightroom may require the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in version 7.0 for full compatibility. Please update the camera raw plug-in using the update tool available in the Photoshop help menu". However, the update function in Photoshop CS5.1 says that there are no updates available and searching adobe.com I can find no references to Camera Raw plug-in 7.0. What is one to do? Thanks.
No, the warning is not the issue. As I've said, "supported cameras" are not the problem.
I do initial processing on my images, then using Lightroom CMD E push them to Photoshop for further editing. The message says "7.0 may be required for full compatibility" should I ignore that warning and click "Open Anyway" because there really aren't any compatibility issues?
LR 4 Develop module is much different than LR 3, just as CS5 version of ACR is different than what I've seen in the CS6 beta. My assumption is there would be compatibility issues - as the warning says - when using LR4's develop engine then passing it on to CS5. I don't use ACR in Photoshop since I use Lightroom, I use Photoshop for detailed image editing in conjunction with the Nik Software selective tool run as a window within Photoshop.
So how about a clear answer: Just click "Open Anyway" and everything will work great? When I first work on an image in LR4, then further edit it in Photoshop CS5 with ACR 6.7 installed, Save and Close the image in Photoshop sending it back to Lightroom it will all work just like yesterday when I did all that in Lightroom 3 without any error messages? -
i've just upgraded to os 10.8.4 and now i can't open canon raw files in photoshop cs5 with camera raw plug in 6.7 which worked perfectly prior to the upgrade....anyone else encountered this issue?
Adobe's software is a mess in terms of the fact that it's sprayed all over the place and may not survive an OS upgrade. Try reinstalling Photoshop CS5.

Camera Raw Plug-In V6.3.0.79 Problems
BACKGROUND
I am running Elements 9 V9.0.2 on an iMac with V6.3.0.79 of the Camera Raw Plug-In.
I am totally new to Elements as of five weeks ago.
The Camera Raw Plug-In worked fine for the first several weeks.
Now, it locks me out of doing anything to a file once I go through Camera Raw - Open the file into the Elements Editor - try to do anything(i.e. duplicate background)
PROBLEM
Sometime in the last few weeks, the Camera Raw Plug-in stopped working correctly:
1- Now, anytime I open a file into Camera Raw and
a- do nothing to file in Camera Raw OR
b- do anything simple/complex in Camera Raw
2- Then from Camera Raw choose the Open Button to go into the Elements Editor
3- The file is always "locked" - I can't even duplicate the background - all functionality is ghosted out.
4- Yet I can take that same file and go straight into the Elements Editor and I can duplicate the background.
5- This is not the way the Camera Raw plug-in worked for several weeks - I could duplicate the background in the Editor after going through Camera Raw.
ATTEMPTED SOLUTIONS
1- I have reinstalled Elements 9 (and the Camera Raw Plug-In) three times - each time the install is totally successful
2- I have checked several forums I found nothing that would give a clue as to a possible solution
POSSIBLE PROBLEM?
1- The only additional related software that I have newly installed around the time of the first occurance of this problem is Elements+
2- I am not saying that Elements+ is an issue, but it is the only "new" thing I can think of that may relate to the problem
3- I have left Elements+ out of the picture when I did the above 3 reinstalls.
4- Nothing changes the problem
Does anyone have any ideas about what may be causing this?1. Yes there is no point in opening a jpeg from camera raw as 16 bit.
2. Raw images have the most headroom for post processing and a much smoother tonal range.
3. You can only do a small range of edits in PSE to 16 bit files, so the problem would remain. CS5 is required to use the full range of tools on large 16 bit files. I always shoot in raw and use Adobe Lightroom for all my raw processing and rarely need elements except for any artistic stuff and adding text. Aperture is available on the Mac and can now be purchased from the app store at a knock down price almost equivalent to Elements. -
I still use CS3 because I am really fluent in it and can do all the things I need to... scared to upgrade:) My issue is that I just started shooting photos in RAW and cannot open them in Photoshop. I downloaded the camera raw plug in and followed the steps posted on the Adobe site but it still isn't working. Is it impossible for me to open the RAW files in CS3? I have a Canon Rebel T3i. Please help!!! Thank you!
Your version of Photoshop will not open T3i images directly. Support wasn't added until Photoshop CS5.
Prior to the Creative Cloud Adobe stopped updating older versions to be able to read raw files from newer cameras whenever they released a new major version of Photoshop. The version you have is no longer receiving Camera Raw updates.
You can check it yourself:
First you need to determine whether Adobe has released support for your new camera in your version of Photoshop. To do that, look at these two pages. You'll want to find out the earliest version of Camera Raw that can support your camera, then what version of Photoshop can run that version of Camera Raw.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
If you were to have found your camera is supported by your version of Photoshop, you would have needed to download the latest update for Camera Raw. There's more information on how to do that here:
Keeping Photoshop Up-To-Date
However, since your version of Photoshop cannot support your camera, you can download and install the latest version of the free Adobe DNG Converter, which can take your raw files as input and put out DNG format files, which your version of Photoshop can open.
Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
The DNG converter DOES work, but if you want maximal quality from your raw files (not to mention the convenience and ease of use of directly opening your raw files) you'll want the latest version of Photoshop. Adobe has made substantial improvements in raw conversion quality in recent years.

I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?
Canon 1DX support was added to ACR in version 6.7, 7.1. An updated CS6 should be at level ACR 8.6. If your ACR is not at level 8.6 try using CS6 menu Help>Updates. If that does not install ACR 8.6 try downloading the ACR and DNG 8.6 converter and see if ACR 8.6 will install into your CS6.

I think I may have a Camera Raw plug-in conflict or plug in may be in the wrong place. In both PS3 and Bridge Nikon raw files (NEF) will not open. I've noticed that in photoshop in the pull down menu-about plug-in, I have 2 Camera Raw (s) listed, getting info one is 4.0, the other 4.6.0.30. It appears that my files and .xmp are 4.0 just by searching for 'Camera Raw' either 4. or 4.6 in spotlight. nothing is listed in spotlight under camera raw 4.6, but all my images are listed in the spotlight if I search for camera raw 4.0! I can not open either in Bridge or Photoshop CS3 I just receive the error message 'could not complete this request because photoshop does not reconize this type of file'. any help would this is greatfully appreciated. Thanks
Well if you have a fairly new Nikon camera PS CS3 will not have the proper version of ACR to support that camera.
You could use the Adobe DNG converter to convert the NEF files to DNGs or you can update PS to a newer version that does have support for newer cameras or you could buy Adobe Lightroom V4 which also has support for the newer Nikon cameras. -
I have Photoshop CS5.1 (bought in 2011). The photoshop Camera Raw plug-in is not recognizing the format of my new Nikon D610. I updated the version of my Camera Raw plug in and am still getting this message when trying to open images in photoshop. Please help.
This link shows that ACR 8.3 supports the Nikon D610 and 6.7.1 was the final version for CS5.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
So you can upgrade to CS6 and ACR 8.7.1
or using the DNG converter, convert your Nikon raw files to dng format to open in CS5.
Here is the download link: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
or Windows: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
And here is a great video tutorial on how to use the converter.

I have Photoshop CS5 and am trying to download the Camera Raw Plug in that will allow me to open images taken with a D800 camera .
It appears the download has been successful when I look in my " Downloads " Folder but I still get a message up saying the installed version of Camera RAW won't support the Camera model ( i.e. D800 ) . What am I missing ??
Tony FletcherYou need to download and install Camera Raw 6.7.1 for CS5. Once you have downloaded it, you need to install it while CS5 is closed.
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.7.1 Update
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Camera Raw 6.7.1 Update
Once downloaded, unzip/unpack the file, and run the executable to start the update, following the instructions. -
If I'm in LIghtroom 5, and try to Edit in Photoshop CS6, I always get the following message: "This version of Lightroom may require the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in version 8.6 for full compatibility." But I have updated to 8.6 and have no remaining updates. How can I fix this?
If I click "Open Anyway" or "Render using Lightroom", I get the following message:
"Adobe Photoshop CS6 cannot be opened because of a problem.
Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Photoshop CS6 works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X."
Please tell me what to do so I can edit from Lightroom to Photoshop.In Photoshop, if you choose Help - About Plug-in... - Camera Raw, does it say 8.6?
Seems to me there was some hiccup they found in the update process, which prompted this:
Camera Raw updates cannot be applied
I honestly don't know if the problem could apply to 8.6 as well, which is why I asked you to check to make very sure you really got it.

Camera RAW plug-in for Photoshop 8 Doesn't Work
I downloaded Camera RAW plug-in 5.6 following the instructions, for use with a Canon Rebel EOS xTi. The file downloaded and was pasted in the proper folder ( C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 8\File Formats\ ). And when the RAW file still didn't open I downloaded Camera RAW plug-in 6.2 and pasted in the same folder as above. When I couldn't access the plug-in from Photoshop Elements 8.0, I tried Help-Updates. I still can't access or open RAW files. How can I fix this problem?
Make sure you delete all previous versions of the 8bi file from the File Formats folder before you start.
Make sure you use the correct download link:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4810
Extract files from the download folder then drag or copy the new 8bi file into the File Formats folder.
You can confirm successful installation by opening Full Edit and clicking Help >>About Plug-in >>Camera Raw
