Camera Raw file download problem

Downloaded Camera RAW Images recognised in PS5 Bridge prior to download (thumbnails visible) but after download, no thumbnails visible, only icons, which when double clicked, the following error message appears "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file".
Other previously downloaded files can be opened, and a test picture I just took, downloaded and opened up fine. Looking at the files that won't open, I noticed that the metadata is missing, so I am wondering if during the download process, the files somehow became corrupted. Can any one help with this problem please? Thanks.

The files were the correct size after downloaded them and I used the PS5 Bridge program to dowload directly from my camera.  I have spoken to Nikon and Adobe about this problem and both seem to agree that the files became corrupted during the download process.  Nikon suggested using third party software to recover the files from the SIM card, which I have now done, but out of 120 files, there were still 6 or 8 files that I couldn't do anything with.  the strange thing is that I could view all the files with the Nikon NX2 software, but as soon as I tried to do anything with them, like converting them to a jpg, I got a meaasage saying that the file was not recognised!   So panic over for this particular issue, but I am still curious to know if this is a common problem.  I suppose if nothing else, I have learned a valuable lesson, which is not to delete pictures from the camaera until after they have been successfully transfered to the computer.  Thanks for your interest in my tail of woe!

    The file that you downloaded is a self-contained running application that installs the update on your computer. After you download that file, you need to double-click on it and follow the prompts to install it. After it has completed you will have Lightroom 4.4 installed and it will be ready to run. If you are on a Windows computer, the installation will replace your 4.1 installation. If you are on a Mac then you will have both versions installed and you will have to be sure you start the right one.

  • I have a Nikon d610 and am using PS CS6. I am unable to download my raw files through Bridge on my mac. I have downloaded the most recent Camera Raw files - 8.7.1 - what should I do next.

    I have a Nikon d610 and am using PS CS6. I am unable to download my raw files through Bridge on my mac. I have downloaded the most recent Camera Raw files - 8.7.1 - what should I do next.

    The D610 needs ACR 8.3 so you are easily covered there.  I am not entirely clear on the process you are using the bring the files onto your hard drive.  The safest way is to simply bring all the NEF files into a folder on your hard drive, then find them with bridge and open from there.
    If still stuck, open Photoshop, and go Help > About plugins > Camera RAW and check that 8.7 installed OK.

  • Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw Update for Photoshop CS5. I have a pc.

    Please Help? Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw update. I have a pc.

    If the camera is fairly new then the version of ACR you have with CS5 won't be able to read those file. You'll need to upgrade to a newer version of Photoshop or use Lightroom 5.
    Once a new version of Photoshop comes out Adobe does not support updating ACR from the older version of PS.

  • Problems opening camera raw files.

    I have tried to open camera raw files (CR2 and RW2) and get an error message that PSE9 can't open this file because it is the wrong type of file. I had thought that PSE9 could open and process Camera Raw. Will appreciate your suggestion for resolving this issue. Thanks.

    Try opening directly from the folder rather than from Organizer
    Right click on a file and choose Open With photoshop elements editor

  • Opening RAW files in Bridge - not recognized as "Camera RAW files"

    I would appreciate any help with this as I am frustrated after spending hours trying to figure this out:
    I use a Mac OS X laptop
    I have a Panasonic (DMC FZ8) camera that I've been taking RAW pictures with. I plug my camera into my computer and try and open the RAW files directly from the camera using Bridge (I have Photoshop CS2)..I have also tried copying the files to a folder on my desktop and opening from there. The problem is that Bridge doesn't recognize my .RAW files as actual "Camera RAW" files and the icons remain as the Preview icon and not actually a preview of the image. If I click on it to open it in Photoshop the "Photoshop RAW Options" come up set on 8 bits and when I open it, it's just a gray screen. I have checked the settings for RAW Camera and the Panasonic RAW files .raw is selected. I have also tried selecting "show only camera raw files" in my window that is open and my .RAW files that are there gray out - so the program isn't recognizing them.
    I just downloaded the Plug-in 3.7 Camera Raw and had to create folders for it in Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS2/File Formats. the only folder I had was Application Support/Adobe so the rest I created.
    I'm now lost as to what I should do next. Nothing I try seems to be working.
    PLEASE HELP!

    >I plug my camera into my computer and try and open the RAW files directly from the camera
    Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
    That is a monumentally bad idea. Transfer the closed files to your local hard drive first.
    This excerpt is from a long-gone post by the late, lamented author Bruce Fraser:
    Bruce Fraser - 4:17pm Jun 14, 04 PST (#5 of 21)
    Opening files directly from the camera is a bad idea for a variety of reasons*, and it most certainly isn't faster than using a FireWire or USB2 card reader.
             Drains the camera battery
             Runs the risk of the software you're using to open the images writing to the card and destroying the format
             Runs a small but significant risk of USB power frying the camera
             Slowest method known to mankind of getting images off a CF or SD card

  • Get an Error window, The source folder does not contain any supported camera raw files

    I am using CS2 and it would not open up my latest RAW files, I was getting a warning Could not complete your request because it is not the right kinds of document. So, I checked the Camera Raw Plug-in and it says Version 3.7. I see that my camera an Olympus E-20 is supported. But it is not opening the Raw files, the day before I took jpeg and they have opened. I will not trash my Adobe Photoshop CS2 because it was a royal pain to install and I don't know where the CD is.
    I installed the latest DNG Converter and when I try to open up the folder which has all the RAW images that didn't open in Adobe, I still get an Error window that says, "The source folder does not contain any supported camera raw files." Why? It says it supports my Olympus E-20. I actually have the E-20n, I don't think that is the problem. My RAW icons usually show up as small image thumbnails and this time they are gray icons only with the incorrect date under the icon. Is there another product I can use without spending money? These images I took in RAW were special and I don't want to lose them. Please help!
    Esther

    Hello, I was using only CS2 with my Olympus E-20n for 5 years, no problem. It just started acting up in RAW this year. I downloaded Picasa that same day and now it seems to be opening up all of my RAW files that didn't open the other day. So, I think Picasa installed a new plug-in adaption to CS2 because now all my RAW icons have a new logo on them, the same one that's in Picasa. Strange, but it works now and I am not complaining anymore. I love CS2 and the many ways I can adjust RAW files, so I am using it, Picasa is a sideline now that I can take a look at many thumbnails and it organized all my photo files by the year and folders. Amazing free software. I have probably 60,000 images in my computer and an external hard drive and Picasa picked them all up and made a library, cool.

  • Photoshop CC doesn't open my camera raw files from my new Nikon D800 (ACR v 8.3.0.141)

    However, it opens camera raw files from my D300 without problems.
    Same for Bridge: NEF files are displayed as generic thumbs.
    Can anyone help me?

    I don't use the Nikon software, but I believe that the latest version of Nikon Transfer works fine. I think it comes with ViewNX2, which is a free download, AFAIK.
    I personally download my photos using a card reader and Adobe Bridge (which comes with Photoshop, and contains Adobe Photodownloader).  Not sure, but I think it's included with Lightroom & Elements too (but I don't use those either).  Using Photodownloader has the added advantage of being able to add metadata at the same time.

  • Nikon D600 & Camera Raw Files

    I have PSE11 and the latest Camera Raw files (v. 7.30) and still I can't open RAW/NEF files. The DNG Converter doesn't convert either.
    What have I missed?
    Any help greatfully received!
    Cheers
    Bruce

    Perhaps you are using Nikon Transfer v 1.x, which corrupts raw files of the newest Nikon cameras as far as Adobe software is concerned.  You need to either not use Nikon Transfer at all or use V2.x that is part of ViewNX2.
    A way to test whether it is your Adobe software or your camera’s files that are the problem, is to download a test D600 NEF from the internet and if it works, then it’s your camera’s images or the transfer to your computer, not Adobe software.
    For example:     http://movies.dpreview.com.s3.amazonaws.com/nikon_d600/DSC_4509_03.NEF.zip
    From this page: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/nikon-d600/21
    You can fix NT1 corrupted files with the following utility:

  • I upgraded my camera and opening a camera raw file no longer works

    I went from a Nikon D3000 to a Nikon D5200.  I have an old version of Elements (version 8) and I no longer can open a camera raw file.  I tried finding an answer in the support area but am not sure I found what I needed to know.  Since my camera is new and didn't exist at the time I purchased Elements does that mean that my old version doesn't support my camera?

    You need to buy PSE12 or Lightroom 5.
    Alternatively, download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.2
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.2
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • Opening Camera Raw file in CS3 Bridge

    I have CS3 Bridge and CS3 Dreamweaver instaled as well as Photoshop CS2.
    I want to open Camera Raw files in CS3 Bridge. The Bridge Help file says:
    "Select 'Edit Camera Raw Settings' in Bridge General Preferences to open Camera Raw dialog box in Bridge" (as opposed to opening in Photoshop.)
    But my Bridge General Preferences has no such checkbox option. When I open a CR file in CS3 Bridge, the file opens in Photoshop CS2.
    How do I get the file to open in CS3 Bridge.
    Thanks, CMA

    I had a problem with this previously and came up with the following:
    If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF and hold down the shift key, Camera Raw will not be scheduled
    If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF image, the image will always schedule Camera Raw if the Bridge menu item Edit/Preference/Thumbnails has Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG and TIFF checked (Bridge JPEG and TIFF Checked).
    If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF image and Bridge JPEG and TIFF is unchecked and the JPEG or TIFF image has previously been processed by Camera Raw, Camera Raw will be scheduled if Camera Raw Preferences dialog has Always open JPEG files with settings using Camera Raw or Always open TIFF files with settings using Camera Raw checked.
    If I am in Bridge and double click a TIFF image and the TIFF file has layers, the TIFF file will not schedule Camera Raw.
    In Photoshop Preferences (Edit/Preference/File Handling) there is a check box titled Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG files. I checked the check box and opened a JPEG image in Photoshop Camera Raw was scheduled. I clicked Open Image in ACR and then saved the image in Photoshop (JPEG saved in Photoshop after passing thru ACR). I then Unchecked the check box and opened the JPEG file Camera Raw was not scheduled.
    The only action I see for the Photoshop File Handling check box is to either schedule or not to schedule JPEG images. I do not see any related action for TIFF files in Photoshop. My expectation is that TIFF files will open in Photoshop not ACR.

  • Camera RAW / Bridge CC problem with Exposure in Mac OS X 10.9 Maverics

    Recently I purchased MacBook Pro with OS X 10.9 Maverics and I have a problem as described below while working in Bridge CC:
    If I open Canon RAW files (.CR2) in Photoshop by double-clicking the file (or File > Open With > Adobe Photoshop CC), Photoshop starts and a Camera RAW windows opens. If I set the Exposure value from -0.95 to 0.95 and choose Open Image or Done, a .XMP file is created, but the value of Exposure is NOT SAVED (Exposure value is still 0).  If I set the Exposure to -1.00 (or less) or +1.00 (or more), it is SAVED.
    On the other way if I open any RAW file just in Camera RAW (File > Open In Camera Raw) everything works fine: any changes of Exposure are saved in .XMP files.
    Please note that I have all updates of Adobe and Apple software are installed.
    Anyone can help?

    Can't check with Mavericks because I'm still on 10.8.5, however I can't say I heard this behavior before.
    Can you select a file that is changed with -0.95 but does not show the result and with right mouse click menu choose purge cache for selection, does that make a difference?
    What version of Camera Raw are you using and What Canon are you using.

  • Can't update camera raw file in photoshop cs5

    I have Adobe Photoshop CS5, version 12.0.4.  I am trying to open camera raw files ending in ARW (Hasselblad Stellar Camera) and PhotoShop tells me there are no updates available.  I have downloaded the mac os file (using Yosemite, latest version) and get the message the installation was successful, however, PhotoShop still shows that the Camera Raw Version is still 6.0.0.205.  I can view the ARW files in finder, however when I try to open the file in PhotoShop CS5 I get this message:
    Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw.
    Please visit the Camera Raw help documentation for additional information.

    you can update ps cs5 to cr 6.7
    update by downloading the files directly and then applying them:
    pre cc updates:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
    i'm not sure which camera you have but the hassleblad stellar II needs cr 8.8 or better.
    your options (if that's your camera) are to upgrade ps or to use the dng converter.
