Camera Raw editing not enabled

I had to do a system restore only to find on return that
I get a message saying  "Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camera Raw
editing requires that a qualiftyjing product has been launched at least once to enable this
feature"
I can open and work on my ORF's via the mini bridge but not the big one, very frustrating. Can anyone help please without me having to reinstall the whole of CS5?
Thank you in advance,
RonB

Hi Curt,
I did the uninstall, run the adobe script cleaner and re-install the whole CS5 suite. I even uninstalled all my other adobe software such as the flash player and the acrobat reader to make sure that there are no other parent application to run but I still get the same error message.
I can also send to you the log of the adobe cleaner if needed. I encountered an error when I run it first but I followed the instructions to manually delete the folder in the path: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe/OOBE
Then after I deleted the folder I rerun the cleaner and found no other items related to the CS5 suite.
After that, I re-installed the C5 suite, updated it to the current ones you have in the website. Then I restarted my computer. Then I opened PS first and from there I opened Bridge. When I try to open an image directly to camera raw from Bridge or copy the settings of an image it still gave the errir message indicated above.
I'm sure I am not the only one encountering this problem thus it would really help a lot if we can find a resolution to this issue since the CS5 suite is really a good application, a cut above the rest, except for thisparticular issue.
Thank you very much for your continued assistance.
Regards,
Kio

    If you really tried every solution how can we help?
    Seriously, give us system details, camera model, ACR version reported under PS Help, and we can maybe suggest something.

  • "Camera Raw editing not enabled"  why!

    Im suddenly unable to edit in Raw...says "Raw Camera editing not enabled. I recently switched from Cloud CC suite to Coud Photography

    This issue comes when qualifying product (say Photoshop CC) licence is not activated.
    Sign and Sign out of CC app and then launch Ps , then try accessing ACR.

  • Camera Raw Editing Not "Enabled" on Bridge

         I recently had to have a new HD installed on my MacBook Pro.  When restoring everything on the new HD using Time Machine I was pleased to see my whole CS4 Master Collections apps restored.  Later I tried to use CS4 Bridge to edit RAW photos.  I got an error message that said Editing RAW was not enabled.  Help?

    I don't think you can restore Adobe programs with Time Machine and have them work properly.  Can you uninstall, and install with disks?

  • Win 7-CS4 - Bridge - ACR 5.5 Camera Raw editing not enabled

    I have just migrated to a new Win 7 system. Fresh install of PS CS4, I found I could load CR2's into ACR but not jpg's. Wehn I tried to check Camera Raw preferences in Bridge I got message "Camera Raw not enabled...." even though PS had been started several times. I tried to update to ACR 5.5 but got same message. I installed it manually as per instructions but still same result. Cannot load jpg's into ACR. I do not have this problem on two XP and one XPx64 systems.
    Is this a problem with win 7?
    Thanks,

  • Camera Raw Edits Not used in Batch

    Hey Everyone,
    I hope that someone can help me. I made alot of edits to about 100 images in Camera Raw ( ie (de)saturation, exposure adjustments, color adjustments,etc).
    I wanted  to finish up the images ( sharpening, saving) with an action that i created in Photoshop CS6.
    However, when i run the action in photoshop, none of the adjustments that I made in camera raw are visible. In other words, the saved images that were output of photoshop batch were essentially the images right out of the camera. What am I doing wrong?
    I appreciate your help in advance.
    -Andre

    The Action is very simple and does not make much sense to me.  The open step is not expanded so I can only guess that its and interactive open step inserted into the action using insert menu item and you selected file>open.  Other Since your original question is about RAW files I assume your opening a RAW file that has ACR settings previously set. So ACR should open the RAW file you select with its previously set ACR settings.  If  this is and interactive ACR step you can use Open as Object or Open Image.  Since later on in the action I see select layer "Background" you must be using open image for open object would create a smart object layer not a background layer.  You action then dupe the background layer and sharpens the duped layer select the background flattens and save as jpeg.   The result would be the same without the dupe and flatten.  These are needless steps.
    I also don't fully understand your original title "Camera Raw Edits Not used in Batch". Batch actions would normally not have and open step. Photoshop Automate Batch or a Photoshop script like the Image Processor would normally process open document or open files select in the bridge or pointed to in the batch process dialog. If the action has an open step the Batch Dialog has an option that can be used to override open steps. You did not show your bath dialog setting. I have never user that option and don't know exactly that option works. Particularly in this case where you failed to expand the open step.  If it is and Open As Camera RAW all image files in the source location will be open through ACR however JPEG  and Tiff files may not have ACR settings and other image file formats other the raw may cause errors. I do not know how the open step was recorded or how a open as camera raw steps are overridden. I'm sure Open recent and open file would open raw file through ACR and other image files formats would be open Photoshop where JPEG and Tiff file may be set to open through ACR.  Do all image file in you source image location have ACR setting and the file type set to be open via ACR?

    Details, please.  Platform, exact version of Photoshop and of your OS, what trouble shooting steps you've taken so far, etc,
    First thing to try, if it had worked before, is to Purge the Cache in Bridge.

    I have a problem with camera raw: "camera raw editing is not enabled" pops up when i right-click on a picture, in adobe bridge, and I try to open with camera raw :-(((
    Could you help me please? i tried many of the solutions on the forum (some of them I did not understand so I did not do it), but they didn't work...

    You should have only ACR plug in isntalled on your system, could you check
    if it is in the right place"

    Here is a copy of the ACR plug in instructions:

    Mac:
    1. Exit Photoshop CS4 and Adobe Bridge.
    2. Open the download file and double-click CameraProfiles.dmg and follow
    the
    on-screen
    instructions.
    3. Open the Finder.
    4. Navigate to the root of the local disk (not the user¹s home folder).
    5. Navigate to Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS4/File Formats.
    6. Move the existing plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder
    on your desktop). Ensure
    you keep this version in case you need to revert back.
    7. Copy the Camera Raw plug-in, Camera Raw, from the download into the same
    folder as in Step 5.
    8. Launch Photoshop CS4 or Adobe Bridge.

  • Camera Raw editing is not enabled - ACR5.4 Vista 64bit

    When I use Bridge, and right click and select to open a raw file in Camera Raw, I get this message:
    "Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature".
    There is no problem in Bridge when opening a raw file in Camera Raw when just Open With (PS) or double-clicking
    I have seen many have the same problem, and I have tried most of the hints found in forums, but no luck.
    I running Windows Vista 64bit. Installed and activated Photoshop CS4 in the standard directories and installed ACR 5.4 manually as described by Adobe by copy the plugin files to folders:
    Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats\
    Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats\
    There are no other files in this 2 directories.
    I have tried purging cache, and have closed both Brigde and Photoshop and startet Bridge from Photoshop by using -file, -browse in Bridge. And still the same problem.
    There are no errors in the files alm.log and amt.log in %temp% directory.
    Thanks for any help

    I have just upgraded to Win 7 64bit and have had a similar problem with getting "Camera Raw editing is not enabled" in Bridge
    I had installed CS4 as a trial whilst I tested that my install of Win 7 was OK
    When I activated CS4 I was using CS4 64 bit and never got the "I have deactivated the software from another machine" question
    I tried lost of things to get Camera Raw editing in Bridge and all failed.
    When I tried CS4 32 bit it wanted to activate the software - it  asked the "I have deactivated the software from another machine" question and then rejected the activation as two PC were using the key.
    I deactivated CS4 from the 64bit side and removed the key
    Then I activated using CS4 32bit - all seems OK now
    Hope this works for you

    Have you opened Photoshop or any other Adobe app that Bridge works with?  You need to do this if you've upgraded PS or just signed up for CC.

  • "Camera Raw Not Enabled" Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature.

    I upgraded my computer yesterday to a Mac Mini 2014 from a Mac Mini 2011. Restored the drive from Time Machine.  The message I received when trying to use Photoshop was I had to many computer enabled. The option was to disable the other two and use this one, which I did. I tried to open a JPG in ACR and got the message "Camera Raw Not Enabled" Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature". If I open a Canon RAW file Adobe Camera Raw opens normally. Stumped.

    The problem cleared itself. Don't  have a clue why.
