Camera Raw freezing
OK, here is what I am doing:
In organizer, I select the RAW image I want to work on
I click the "full edit" option

Hi,
Have you tried updating to ACR 6.6? (Help >> Updates)
Do you have lots of free disk space?

Camera RAW - freezing while editing image and also wont update to new version
I moved from Mac 10.6.8 computer to a new Mac 10.10 computer. When I did, I transfer of all my files through data migration and it moved photoshop and bridge over for me without having to reinstall. Which was good because I do not have the disc anymore. My Adobe version is CS5. The problem I am having is that when I open large amounts of files within camera RAW (like anything over 15), the camera RAW program freezes. I then have to shut it down and reopen it again. I made sure to try other folders and files and it has happened over 6 times in different locations and different files and different amount of files opening. Any ideas? I noticed that maybe I needed to update my Adobe application because of the computer move, but when I went to the help menu and update, it goes through the entire process of updating all Adobe Applications and fails giving an error message only at the end saying, " There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later."
HELP!"Migrating", transferring or copying applications is not just asking for trouble, it's demanding trouble.
Always install from scratch, from the original media, CD/DVD or download. -
Adobe Camera Raw 8.2 Crashes
Hi everyone,
When I open a smart-object from Camera Raw 8.2 in Photoshop CS6
(i.e. made a new smart-object via copy and double click the icon to open Camera Raw) and I use the eyedropper tool as the Target adjustment tool ((Command + Click) in Camera Raw) to set points on my Curve Camera Raw freezes/crashes. I have tested and it seems to happen when I hit/hold command and scroll over my image to find a point. It shows a circle on my curves but it pauses and freezes.
I have uninstalled Photoshop and reinstalled.
I installed all updates.
Purged Camera Raw Cache,
I'm running Mac OS X 10.9.0 with Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT graphics card
on Macbook Pro Mid 2008 model
I looked around and tried to find articles related to this issue and it maybe a graphics card issue.
However, my driver is up to date and I don't know what the issue is.
My file is on an external hd which shouldn't be an issue but worth bringing up.
Can someone please help with a solution to my issue?
Thank you so much.Thank you, we'll follow up.

After I launch Camera Raw to do additional retouching work the cursor/SW freezes. Only way out of the problem is to do a hard restart. It happens every time now. Using Windows 8.1. Any ideas and solutions? Thanks.
It will pop up with a window asking if you want to clear the preferences. You must press Ctrl+Alt+Shift immediately after initiating ACR by pressing "open with Camera Raw."
I haven't heard of any bugs in the ACR 8.7 for CC, but that doesn't mean that there aren't. -
Adobe camera raw 6.6 freezes when editing
I have a pc, it freezes when switching from one photo to the next. This is a new occurrance and very annoying since I have to force close and start all over again. I process tons of action shots, and this is making it take forever. I have a newer computer with an excellent processor and lots of RAM. Like I said, it's a new development. Can anyone help?
In my case, Canon EOS 7D, on Windows 7, 64bit with all the latest updates. On an HP DV7 laptop with an Intel i5 and 8 gigs of ram.
Photoshop is CS5 64bit from the Web Premium package. I always shoot full res raw files in the adobe color space if that matters.
I also went back and tried with some older files from my EOS 40D and EOS 10D, same thing.
It always seems to be related to opening more than 10-12 files at a time in Camera Raw. It will lock up when going from one file to the next by clicking on them in the left hand panel of camera raw window. This is just doing normal editing operations, you don't have to double click or click real fast or anything special to get it to happen.
The only way to fix it is to kill the Photoshop process in the windows Task Manager process list. Then clear the Camera Raw cache before opening again or else camera raw will not read the file it locked up on previously.
This has been happening very regularly since I updated to camera raw 6.6.
Thanks,
Tom -
Any solutions/fixes. Photoshop itself it's fully functional apart from the raw opening problem. I did have 8.5rc installed, raw does seem to have updated as I now have PS CC (non 2014 version) fully functional. I have already tried a new download and re install of 2014 to no avail. Also tried a download of the separate raw module, no fix either.
Win 8.1 system
Thanks in advance of any help, was trying to avoid a complete Adobe file wipe.Ok, so this is actually a Wacom driver problem( I'm using Intuos 4). If I turn off windows ink in Wacom driver settings then my sliders in camera raw become responsive again, but I lose pressure sensitivity in PS. Just updated Wacom drivers, but no joy. Anybody have a work around/fix?

Bridge freezes when applying camera raw settings to large number of files
I have a folder with 32,000 frames from a time-lapse project that I'm doing. I'd like to apply the same camera raw adjustments to all of these files, and so follow one of the two methods below - neither of which are working with such a large set of files:
Method 1:
Select all files, open in camera raw.
Apply changes to the first image
Select all images, then synchronize the changes to all other images.
Unfortunately selecting "Open in Camera Raw..." just leaves bridge to hang. It's using a lot of memory and processor time, so I would assume it's working, but there's no progress bar or similar to indicate that it is.
Method 2:
Open first file in Camera Raw
Apply all changes, and exit camera raw.
Select all files in Bridge, right click on one and select "Develop Settings -> Previous Conversion"
Unfortunately the final step again leaves bridge just thinking. I waited around an hour, closed bridge, but unfortunately when I opened it again there was no sign that it had copied the camera raw settings onto any of the other files. My computer's pretty slow (see below) but it should have written one xmp file in an hour.
Question:
Does anyone have any workarounds other than repeating the process 32 times for 1000 images at a time?

Installed TWAIN devices: NONEThe files are only 2MP each, and I have the same issue when I apply the changes to RAW files and JPG files. The error occurs though before any changes are applied, before the images would need to be recached, as when the error doesn't occur the dialogue box I mentioned pops up asking what to change.
Your specs sound more then enough I would think. Do you have set the option to Write cache to folders when possible and if so could you uncheck that option?
I don't have experience with this kind of numbers but I do dump the Bridge cache manually on a regular base (every new cycle it seems to be more stable so more interval in the periods of dumping cache) but my main folder contains usually around 6 to 7 K of DNG files from 21 MP dSLR. This starts caching without problems but takes a few hours before done.
Can't use the option cache for folder due to a longstanding problem with error message to replace the CacheT file, hence my question about your setting.
Also I have set the option to previews Always HQ and in the prefs have set the option to build monitor size previews.
As said, don't know the large numbers but the 2 MP files are very small and it should be possible for Bridge I would think?
Did you also try to create a new folder and place the files inthere. Or divide them in to three folders for testing? -
Did the update for camera raw 11-26-2014, Now as stated in headline. Only the Lightroom update is working. Photoshop goes threw the motions, little cycle. then just sets there. Nothing loads, the cycle goes away. and nothing. Bridge just freezes, Photoshop cs6 Nothing.
At first the update did not work on bridge or Photoshop cc. got a error. had to do a work around to get it to install from cloud by renamimg a folder 1.0 and letting cloud re-create it. then the update worked.
But tried the camera raw right after the first update with error.
that's when Raw stopped working. But even after a successful update. It still don't work.
Note: before tempting this update. It all worked. now the only raw editor working is lightroom 5.7 Raw 8.7.
Yes rebooted, yes researched and found nothing.
Windows pc
windows 7
Thank you in advanceThank you for your kind advice and interest in my problem.
I tested:
c:\in\v -folder is the one that jpg is read
c:\in\vlc is folder that the camera raw saves jpg
original file name was:
HIETALAHTI, TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAISEN SEURAKUNNAN PÄIVÄKERHO_cpy004_5000_02.jpg
it is truncated into:
HIETALAHTI, TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAISEN SEURAKUNNAN P.jpg
I shortened the original file name and removed the scandinavian A with dots on top of it and the comma from ther file name:
HIETALAHTI TENAVAMUSK_VAASAN SUOMAL SRK PAIVAKERHO_cpy004_5000_02.jpg
truncates to:
HIETALAHTI TENAVAMUSK_VAASAN SUOMAL SRK PAIVAKERHO_cpy004_5.jpg
the scandinavian alphabet is not a problem (the file names are not always clipped in their position).but causes some extra truncating:
HIETALAHTI-TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAINEN PÄIVÄKERHO_CPY00.jpg turns into:
HIETALAHTI-TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAINEN PÄIVÄKERHO_CP.jpg
and
HIETALAHTI-TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAINEN PÄIVÄKERHO_CPY0.jpg into same
HIETALAHTI-TENAVAMUSKARI_VAASAN SUOMALAINEN PÄIVÄKERHO_CP.jpg
This is why I havent found a good rule in this.
In camera raw the whole file name shows under the preview image but in saving the image the file naming example is truncated.
Even the longest of our file names worked flawlessly for several years until maybe two weeks ago.
60 characters is top length that did not truncate in this testing -
Failure to launch Camera Raw 5.2 correctly on a Mac with Elements 6?
I downloaded and installed the Adobe Camera Raw application, and I read the readme and followed the instructions (although I'm not positive that I did it correctly). When I open Elements and then Camera Raw, the loading window for Camera Raw pops up - but that's it. Nothing happens. The program doesn't load, but elements does not freeze either. Is there something I'm just not undertanding? Do I have to plug my camera in (Nikon D60) or do something else to get this plug-in to work? Please help - I really want to start working with RAW files! Thanks.
Here are the instructions for installing the ACR update:
To install with Adobe Photoshop Elements: NOTE: You must follow all of the new instructions in order to successfully install the Camera Raw plug-in for Photoshop Elements.
1. Exit Photoshop Elements and Adobe Bridge.
2. Open the download file, double-click CameraProfiles.dmg, and follow the onscreen instructions.
3. Navigate to the root of the local disk (not the user's home folder).
4. Navigate to: (Please read directory carefully)
Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS3/File Formats
5. Move the existing plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensure that you keep this version in case you need to revert back.
6. Copy the Camera Raw plug-in, Camera Raw, from the download into the same folder as in Step 4.
7. Launch Photoshop Elements or Adobe Bridge. -
Hello all,
I am sorta new to taking Raw photographs and I have been been using Adobe Bridge/Camera Raw to edit. When I take my photos (I am using a Canon t2i) I have it set to save a raw and a jpg. When I view these images in Adobe Bridge/Camera Raw I notice a clear difference in the jpg and raw (I understand the whole concept behind raw vs. jpg. so im not questioning why one looks different) It is obvious all the adjustments that were applied to my jpg. vs the natural raw. My question is: When I view the same two images in the software that came with my camera, canon digital photo professionals, the canon and raw look almost identical.... My assumption is that canon is applying the same "adjustments" to my raw as it did to the jpgs? Has anyone used these two programs and noticed this?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
MichelleCan't say I'm an expert on DPP myself either. I've only run it a few times myself.
If you're seeing Photoshop freeze just by looking at the File Info tab, that's certainly not expected and you should start a tread specifically to discuss that. The forum may be able to help you get that working.
I happen to like the color my camera delivers in its embedded JPEGs (which I use to quickly review shots via IrfanView). Starting with that color in Camera Raw by default just feels very natural and integrated.
Without a specific custom profile to help you with the task, here's my suggestions for the next best thing:
1. Take an image with a range of different colors in it.
2. Open the embedded JPEG also using whatever means you have to do so.
3. Open it also in Camera Raw and make sure you're using the Camera Raw default parameters.
4. Go into the Camera Calibration tab (little camera icon), and choose the Camera Standard profile as provided by Adobe.
5. Tweak the various sliders so as to match the color between what you're seeing in the JPEG and Camera Raw.
6. Save new Camera Raw defaults.
Some notes:
Make sure you leave the White Balance on As Shot, since storing a specific white balance is probably not going to be helpful.
Test your settings and repeat the above to tweak them as needed using other images.
Keep in mind that not every application does proper color-management. IrfanView can be set up to do so, and I don't recall whether you have to tweak a default setting to make it do that or not (it's been a while).
Hope this helps!

Two problems which have defeated me.
First, I have a new Canon EOS 500D and need to download the recent (July 2010) CS5 Camera Raw update. However both of my computers freeze when I move from the Adobe Support web page to the Download web page. Is this a known problem? What to do about it? I am using CS 5 on a Windows 2007 XP computer.
Second, (probably related to the first) opening a file in Photoshop is not listed among Bridge's "OPEN AS" options. Also, the "OPEN" Default is "PAINT". How do I set Photoshop as the "OPEN" menu default?
Thanks for your suggestions. I am truly befuddled by these issues.
JackIsaacSounds like something is really wrong with your computer, and it isn't clear what, but if you're just having issues getting to the download link for ACR:
Here is the download page for ACR 6.1 update:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4728
Here is the download page for the CS5 12.0.1 update:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4733
If those links don't work, you can probably find the same updates on the FTP site, although some things here are more than a decade old:
ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/photoshop/
See if Bridge and ACR are any happier after installing these two updates. Make sure you run them as Administrator.
If those still don't work for you, try another browser, where Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Google Chrome should all work.
http://www.microsoft.com/ie
http://www.firefox.com/
http://www.google.com/chrome
There are numerous other browsers, as well, but they probably won't work if the above three don't.
Perhaps you either have a virus that you should scan for, or over-zealous internet-protection software that you could try disabling temporarily.
My favorite free virus/malware scanner is from www.MalwareBytes.com
The payfor version will automatically update itself and scan, but the free version works just as well except you have to manually update and scan. -
Can't open raw file after update 6.6 camera raw
Just updated camera raw in photoshop 5 on a mac pro running 10.6.8 os wont open a raw file and program freezes and must force quit to close. Lightroom update has problems as well. Don't recommend updating to either
Same Problem. Everything worked fine until ACR 6.6 install just now on Windows 7 machine (CS 5 Production Premium). Bridge/Photoshop can no longer read my Canon 5D Mark II RAW files, but work fine with older Canon camera RAW files, TIF's, jpegs. How do I uninstall just ACR 6.6 and reinstall ACR 6.5 without doing anything else? Thanks.

Just updated camera raw to 6.6 in photoshop 5 won't open raw files
Just updated camera raw in photoshop 5 to 6.6 on a mac pro running 10.6.8 os wont open a raw file and program freezes and must force quit to close. Lightroom update has problems as well. Don't recommend updating to either
Photoshop CS5, 12.0.4 x64

8GB 1066 MHz DDR3 RAM
Photoshop is configured to open Raw, JPG & Tiff.
Raw files in CR2 format from my Canon EOS 5D MarkII
Applied the Camera Raw 6.6 update last night. There were no problems noted during the update. Did not realize until later that the files would not open any more - I was working with PSD files created several days before. I forwarded several crash reports to Apple after I force closed Photoshop several times. When I opened one of the three files Photoshop would not exactly freeze but the whole system became slow - the force-close menu took a while to display after I right-clicked the icon in the dock. If I dragged and dropped one of the three into the dock icon, Photoshop would open with usual audible disk sounds but the sounds stopped quickly and the program was frozen.
I recovered using suggestions from the forum, used Time Machine to return Photoshop, Bridge and the Adobe folder in the path /Library/Application Support/Adobe/ to the state before the update. The Camera Raw Plug-in is now at 6.5 and I can open RAW files again.

Cannot update camera raw D7000
I successfully reloaded CS5 on a new laptop. However, cannot update camera raw (6.0 current). Under updates, message is "failed to install. Try again later." Also, says to close Bridge.exe when it even isn't open so can't proceed. However, is updated CS5 OK. So, when trying to install raw update, it freezes up. What step am I missing. Cannot open my photo images and had no trouble on my other laptop. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Camera Raw crashes with use of white balance eye dropper.
Using PS CC2014.2.1
Since this update, whenever I use the white balance eyedropper in Camera Raw, if placed over an over exposed region, instead of the dialogue box popping up to warn that the area is too bright, the system just freezes. Have to launch task manager and close PS.
If eyedropper is placed on non-over exposed (not clipped) area, it seems alright. Anyone else experiencing this?Due to the current unavailability of clairvoyants and mind-readers in the forum, we respectfully request you supply sensible, complete details.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.
