Camera Raw 8 very slow(unuseable) in Photoshop CS6

Camera Raw 7 had it's major problems with Photoshop CS6 but had a few improvements to speed with the last update on my system. The update to Raw 8 has slowed everything down again to a painful 3-4 second wait before controls, crop tool etc. responds. Anyone else getting this? it seems deja-vu with Adobe. Completely unusuable for any day to day work. Back to CS5 again....?
Running Macpro 8 core 2.66 32gb RAM

First a reminder, these are user to user forums, not a channel to address Adobe directly.
I don't see any slowdown in ACR 8.1 hosted by Photoshop 13.0.5 under Lion 10.7.5 on my MacPro 1,1 Quad.
Try setting the Noise Reduction to zero and tell us if you see any difference.
What exact version of the OS are you running?

Camera Raw won't open in Photoshop CS6

Wanting to begin using the Camera Raw plug-in for PS CS6, I find that it isn't active. (1) In Bridge CS6, the ACR icon in the top menu is grayed out; (2) after clicking a JPEG image file in Bridge, then right-clicking it, there's no option to open it in Camera Raw; (3) using Bridge's File menu, there's no Camera Raw option visible; and (4) in PS CS6, going from File > Open, then choosing "Camera Raw" in the Enable options drop-down list, each JPEG file is grayed out.
My attempts to activate Camera Raw involve (1) downloading DNG Converter 8.7.1 and (2) attempting to download ACR 8.3…Adobe Update. That second effort failed, getting this error code: "Camera Raw 8.3(CS6) U44M2P7". I currently have AdobeCameraRaw7.0ALL and AdobeCameraRawProfile7.0ALL installed on a Mac running OS10.7.6.
I don't know what else to do. Please tell me how to activate Camera Raw using Photoshop CS6.
Thank you very much.

Benjamin, I thank you very much for your prompt and helpful e-reply!
I've downloaded and installed the ACR plug-in for v. 8.7.1.311 Now, files open in Camera Raw, as expected, when using Bridge CS6. That's great.
I have two questions, Ben:
1 -- -- Although the first three options that I mentioned above (working from Bridge) are successful, I'm unable to open JPEGs in Camera Raw directly from Photoshop [as in option (4) above]. I'd like to be able to open JPEG files from PS; is there a preference I need to set to get PS to recognize and enable ACR?
2 -- -- Should I now delete all files related to AdobeCameraRaw7.0ALL? Or are those files required to run with the new plug-in?
Thank you, my friend.

if there is no ACR in CS6 and no support from Adobe what can I do. to get it

My images are going from from camera raw to totally white in Photoshop CS6, I am using a Mac computer.

I am using Photoshop CS6 and my images are opening up totally white from camera raw into photoshop.
I am using a Mac. Just recently switched from PC to raw, and never had this problem.

Is everything up to date?

How do I install Camera Raw update aget downloading for Photoshop CS6 Ext on Windows 7 64bit

How do I install Camera Raw update 6.7 after downloading for Photoshop 6 Ext 64 bit
on Windows 7?

Camera 6 and its update are for Photoshop CS5 , for Photoshop CS6 we have camera raw 7.

Camera Raw 7.3 Update replaced Photoshop CS6 Standard with CS6 Extended Trial version

How do I get back to Photoshop CS6 Standard edition after Camera Raw 7.3 update?
After installing the Camera Raw update photoshop now runs as the Trial version of Photoshop Extended.

I upgraded CS6 and Lightroom 4 today and then when restarting Photoshop CS6 this evening I get a dialog about registering with my e-mail for Photoshop Extended Edition Trial.
I have never owned the Extended edition and did the update from my existing product using the Adobe Update manager. There should have been no reason for this mistake to occur.
I've done upgrades like this many, many times before and have never had my system react this way. You clearly have a bug in your update process and should fix it pronto. Do you know how confusing it is to get a dialog like this? Should I let it register me for a product I don't own? Is that going to somehow trash my legitimate license (now there's the process of activation, I'm always concerned that I'll mess things up and end up unable to use Photoshop until support can help me out)
I'll go find my serial number and re-enter it, but I think this is a serious bug - and will make me much more cautious about waiting to apply updates until I've read the forums to make sure it's safe to do so

Is Camera Raw 7.3 available for Photoshop CS6?

I have Lightroom 4.3 and it keeps asking for Camera Raw 7.3 when I want to edit photos in Photoshop CS6 from LR. My understanding of the Adobe support site is that Camera Raw 7.3 is only available via the Update function in Photoshop. I updated Photoshop but LR still asks for Camera Raw 7.3 and Photoshop still shows Camera Raw 7.2 as the installed version (under System info) and the Update function says Photoshop is up to date...how do I fix this?
There doesn't seem to be an easy way round this problem. How can I download a discrete CR 7.3 executable? My OS is Windows 8.

Hi there, thanks for the reply. I can only assume you have Windows 7. My Windows 8 screens look like this...and Photoshop System Info the last image. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

[Camera Raw] Very slow previews on SSDultaniously

I need to work on 36 files (about 20Mb each) simultaneously opened in Camera Raw. I'm using the adjustment brush, the problem is that each file take 4-5 second to load and show me the preview. This is taking a lot of time.
The fact is that i'm now working on a SSD Hard drive, but nothing changed.
Is there a change to cut out dead times?
that's my current system:
MacPro 2 Quad Core 3Ghz Intel Xeon
Samsung SSD 128GB
Radeon X1900 512Mb Ram
10GB of ram 667mhz
Snow Leopard 10.6.2
Adobe Photoshop CS4
Adobe Bridge CS4
Camera Raw 5.5.0.97
Is that a resolvable problem or there's nothing to do?
Thanks
Filippo

another problem, when I go back to an already processed file (without quitting camera raw), CR realoads again the file... It shouldn't work that way! I've tried lightroom and it keeps memory of files (a bit), but LR doesn't fit in my workflow... and there's still the problem of the first loading...

I recently switched from PC to a Mac Book Pro and some things are different. I used to be able to open a jpeg or tiff in camera raw on my PC in Photoshop CS6 by going to file, open as, picking my image under file name and "open as" click on camera raw. Ho

I recently switched from PC to Mac and I want to be able to open a tiff or jpeg in camera raw. I could do it on my PC but can't figure out how to do it in Mac??

Use File>Open, set Enable to All Readable Documents, then click on your tiff or jpeg and select Camera Raw under Format
Then click on Open

Please help me , my camera raw doesn't open on photoshop or bridge

my camera raw doesn't open on photoshop cs6 or adobe bridge :S and i don't know what is the reason , when i try to open any of my raw photos i get this message
so what should i do ? please any one help me here
thanks

You’ll need a connection to the internet, and probably have a registered version to do updates. Sometimes it takes a few minutes for PSE to talk to the Adobe servers and see that you’re needing updates. If you are connected to the internet, then perhaps your computer has a firewall or internet security that needs temporarily disabled. So try some things like that.
You can also try downloading and running the updaters for ACR 8. CS6 from this Adobe blog page:

Camera raw 7 slow zoom in/out ,but fast process 2003 or 2010

Hi
i did notice that zoom in or out in camera raw is slow , even in middle pc , i'm not talking about hi end pc
but i did find it's amazing fast if use process 2003 or 2010
may i use like default the 2003 or 2010 ?
how can i do it?
thanks
cheers

but do you why 2010 is so slow compared to 2010 o 2003 ?
Just a suspicion: Adobe is adding more and more compute-intensive functionality in the newer versions - for example image analysis that affects the way the PV2012 controls work - in anticipation of more and more powerful computers. It's the normal way of things.
PV2012 seems to take about twice as long for me to complete a conversion than its predecessor. But on my reasonably powerful computer that's the difference between 2 and 4 seconds - no problem, really.
I'm not sensing any difference in zoom speed.
everytime i load a canon raw file , it 's always to 2012!
what 's wrong?
I don't know. Photoshop CS5 comes up with PV2010 for me for images I haven't opened before, because that's what I saved my Camera Raw Defaults as. I don't use the camera serial number/ISO specificity settings though.
Are you thinking of updating to Photoshop CS6? I mention this because the released version is available today.

How can i add camera raw Plug-ins (PS CC) to CS6?

is there anyway i add camera raw Plug-ins (PS CC) to CS6?
In photoshop CC have camera raw Plug-in under filter menu, i can use any time i want, but in CS6 only when i open raw file, but i don;t want use smart object, thanks

The only thing Photoshop CS6 users will benefit from in Camera Raw updates is the addition of new cameras. All of the other features are part of the CC subscription program. It's one of the selling points for moving to the Creative Cloud.

Camera Raw 4.0 unusable in Photoshop CS2

If you have Photoshop CS2 and you download the latest RAW 4.0 update, forget about opening any RAW files from cameras produced in the past year and a half or so. As a clever marketing move Adobe has disabled all functionality for RAW cameras once covered under RAW versions 3.0 through 3.7 when using the RAW version 4.0 in Photoshop CS2. Why would they do that, you ask? To sell more software, of course!
The RAW 4.0 update adds only the Panasonic DMC-FZ8, a camera that I recently purchased. But, if I want to view RAW files from this camera I have to upgrade to Photoshop CS3 or buy Lightroom 1.0, and that is exactly what Adobe is hoping. Suddenly my Photoshop CS2 program has become obsolete because in addition I can no longer open RAW files from my Nikon D200. What is so difficult about making the RAW 4.0 plug-in compatible with other more recent Photoshop programs? Absolutely nothing! Adobe cares more about selling new software than they do about customer loyalty. Such a marketing practice is unfortunate and, in my mind, reflects poorly on Adobe's business ethics.

"I think a nice compromise to the ACR things is to design the next full version of upgrade of ACR (in this case 4.0) so that it will work with the last version of Adobe Photoshop (in this case CS2)."
Yeah, ok, here's the problem with that...Mac CS2 required 10.3.9 or above...Win CS2 required Win 2K or XP/SP2...Photoshop CS3 (and Camera Raw 4.0) requires Mac 10.4.8 and Win, XP/SP2 or Vista.
So, you code to the latest APIs of the system (10.4.x, XP/SP2 or Vista) and you are supposed to magically make a plug-in work on older APIs of the previous version of Photoshop? Even though, to progress and advance (and hopefully optimize) you commit to using the new APIs. So, how ya gonna make Camera Raw 4.0 work in Photoshop CS2-disable it for 10.3.9 and Win 2K? Forget about using new API's and suffer through the old ones?
So, you say, well, just keep updating Camera Raw 3.x...ok, for how long? Forever? For 1 quarter? For a year?
So, you got the Camera Raw engineering team (3 guys) taking time away from Camera Raw 4 to re-write code for Camera Raw 3 for cameras that weren't even sold when Camera Raw 3.x shipped...you ok with that? You realize that it will drain resources from new products with new features, but that's ok. . .you want Adobe to support old products even though they no longer sell them.
I suppose in a perfect world, that would be ok. But as a user of the current Photoshop CS3 and Camera Raw 4, I would want the engineers to be concentrating their time and energy working on what they ARE selling right now. Adding new cameras to Camera Raw 4. Adding new functionality to Camera Raw 4.
People have a pretty skewed view of software, IMHO. They drop down bucks for HARDWARE and expect the software to be upgraded forever, for free. There's just as much value in intangible personal property (software) as there is in tangible personal property (hardware). And...it ain't like these shiny new cameras don't come with the camera maker's software...and Adobe STILL provides support for new cameras in old versions via DNG...which, BTW is free...
Big ol' bad Adobe, out there trying to screw their customers...I don't think so. They bend over backwards to do the right things, but of course, to some people, even that's not enough.

How do you install Camera Raw 8.3 to CS5 photoshop so I can open files ?

How do you install Camera Raw 8.3 to CS5 photoshop so I can open files? Thanks

CS5 does not support ACR 8.5, it only goes as far as 6.7.
You will need to convert your raw files to DNG format with the free converter. http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/digital-negative.html
