Camera raw missing clarity tool

all of a sudden in my camera raw window i'm missing the clarity tool and i have no idea how to get it back? i think i might be missing another tool but i'm not sure. i tried reinstalling CS3 but no luck. has this happened to anyone else? any fixes?
thanks!

Buko is correct. The number in the name of the preferences file does NOT match the actual plug-in version number.
I attempted to report this
minor bug late last year, but the creator of ACR and Ps does not consider it a bug:
(Minor?) Bug: ACR Preferences file does not match ACR version number

Camera raw missing from filters

camera raw missing from filters, how do I get it there?

If you have cs6 (may work with others but never tried). A little trick I do to open my jpeg in camera raw is the following:
1. In photoshop select File > Open
2. Select the file you want to open in camera Raw
3. In the format drop down at the bottom, change it to camera raw
4. Hit open
that's it your in camera raw with the JPEG

Hope this helps!

Camera Raw missing color channel

I am using PSE9 for images from my Pentax K5. All updates have been installed.
The raw files (PEF) have always worked in Camera Raw.
Today however, I have opened some raw files and found that ACR is not showing the red channel in any images. The JPEG thumbnails in camera are displaying correctly.
I have also opened the same files with Pentax Digital Camera Utility 4.40 and it displays the images correctly. This confirms the data has been recorded - thank goodness it is not a capture problem.
Any suggestions and solutions as to what has happened to Camera Raw?
Thanks to all who consider my problem.

I have been using a Pantone Huey colorimeter for many years now with great effect.
Unfortunately, this appears to be the source of my problems although I'm not sure why it would suddenly fail.
When I factory reset the Huey, i.e. there is no calibrated monitor profile, it displays all images accurately. As soon as I calibrate the monitor, the colors display incorrectly again.
The latest version of the Huey software was made back in the days of Windows XP. Therefore, there is no guarantee it will work with Windows 7 although it has been doing so for some time.
It may be time to replace it with a Colormunki or Spyder4.
If I go ahead, I'll post the outcome.

Can you help with the moire adjustment tool in Camera Raw?

I have a file with a lot of moire on a child's dress and am having problems using camera raw moire adjustment tool.
I opened a jpeg file (not raw) in camera raw. When I use the moire adjustment brush - set to +100 - and click on the eyeglass tool in the window to see the effect - it shows a white overlay.
Clicking the preview button doesn't show up any difference.
I have saved several files as tests but the moire remains unaltered.
Any help appreciated. Or alternatively, suggestions on how to deal with Moire in Photoshop.
Thank you.

If possible deal with the moire issues up front. If you have original re-scan to see if you can reduce effect. If not do a web search for this. There are several tutorials listed such as http://photographylife.com/how-to-remove-moire-in-photoshop
Hope this helps.

Free hand selection tool using Camera Raw?

When using the Camera Raw “Spot Removal Tool” or the “Adjustment Brush”, the selection tool is circular (which makes it difficult many times to select the exact spot). I have to make several smaller circular selections to get the exact area that I want to work on. Is there a way to make a free-hand selection (like you can in Photoshop)?
I am using ACR 6.6.
Thanks to anyone who can help me out.

Just to be clear...this is the Camera Raw forum. The moment you click Open in ACR you have the fill functionality and feature set of Photoshop at your disposal. I think you need to make a much stronger use case for adding completely new functionality that can arguably be done better one step after ACR in Photoshop.
I take thousands of concert photos shot in raw mode. Up until recently, I would process each photo through Camera Raw and then into Photoshop for additional adjustments and save another version of each photo in Photoshop. With the recent improvements to Camera Raw, I have discovered that I can do all my processing in Camera Raw and have no need to go into Photoshop for adjustments (for 99% of the photos). I now save all that storage space (by not having to store 2 versions of each photo) plus my process is streamlined. I have also further automated Camera Raw with an external keystroke macro program to quickly jump to the different sliders. If I was able to have the free hand tool in Camera Raw, I would replace multiple adjustments using small circle selections with one adjustment using a free hand selection saving much time.
Is the above explanation a stronger case?

CS5 won't open RAF files from FinePix HS10 & Camera Raw 6.3- Is there something I'm missing??

Ok-
I've bought CS5 Extended and then updated it (including the Camera Raw 6.3 update).
I am using a MacBook Pro (and an iMac also).
When I try to open the RAF file I get the message "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." Yet the release notes for Camer Raw say that it will open FinePix HS10 files...
So I then decided to try a manual install of Camera Raw- I get the same message.
I have checked with other HS10 users and their PS does open them.
Is there something obvious that I am missing- or is there a problem with the camera raw or the photoshop cs5??
Hope someone can help!!

I didn't realise that the Camera Raw won't work in 64bit mode. Converting to 32bit enabled the files to be opened.
Actually, that's wrong. Camera Raw 6.3 WILL run as a 64-bit plug-in when hosted by Photoshop CS5 if CS5 is running as a 64-bit app. It'll run as a 32-bit plug-in when hosted by Bridge or Photoshop CS5 set to run as 32-bit.
So, there's something else going on here....
How are you trying to open the raw files? From within Bridge or the Finder? How did you update Camera Raw to version 6.3? From the updater? Is ACR 6.3 in the correct install location? main Library (not the User but root), Application Support/Adobe/Plug-ins/CS5/File Formats/Camera Raw.plugin
Can you open raw images from within Bridge? Have you tried to view raw files with Bridge before you updated Camera Raw? Have you trashed the cache foe the folder? In Bridge under Tools/Cache/Purge Cache

No Adjustment Brush Tool in Camera Raw 5.2

Hi, I'm new here. After watching a Gavin Hoey tutorial on HDR editing, I decided to give it a try. My pc came with PSE 7.0 pre-installed (it's version 7.0.1 and the camera raw is version 5.2.0.65) When I drag a RAW image into the edit window of PSE, it opens in a camera raw 5.2 window. On the Hoey tutorial, the window has an adjustment brush in the top toolbar, but on mine, there is no such tool. Is this normal, or can I download an update to fix this? I'm guessing PSE is a "diluted" version of PSand that's why the adjustment brush is missing.

The tutorial was undoubtedly using Camera Raw hosted by the full version of Photoshop.
Camera Raw in Photoshop Elements is emasculated by design, even though the Camera Raw plug-in is exactly the same one used by the full version of Photoshop. There's only a limited subset of the features and tabs offered by Camera Raw when hosted by Elements.
I don't remember at what stage the Adjustment Tool was added, so you should try updating Camera Raw at least to version 5.7, or higher if your version of Elements supports a higher version.
In my opinion, Photoshop Elements is overpriced by about $80.

Missing features in Camera Raw 8.1

I have just purchased and installed Photoshop CC. It should come shipped with a fully loaded Camera Raw 8.1 but mine is missing the Advanced healing brush and Upright tool. Despite 3 hours on online chat and the telephone with Adobe support none of 3 different agents could come up with a reason ar a solution to the problem. Does anyone out there have any ideas?

Did you do a check for updates?

If you go to Help>System Info from within photoshop cc, what version of camera raw does it list?

Camera Raw 6.6 missing functions

I use PSE 10 with Camera Raw 6.6. It appears to be missing functions such as the paint brush and the ability to mask. I've tried downloading it again, but the additional functions did not reappear. Any suggestions?

Masking is only available in conjunction with sharpening under the detail tab. Hold down the alt key whist dragging the making slider to see how sharpening will be applied to edges.
There is no adjustment brush tool available in the Elements version of camera raw. It’s only available in CS6 or Lightroom.

Lens correction tool in Camera Raw 6.0???

I bought Photoshop CS5 last night and got everything loaded up. The first thing I wanted to play with was the lens correction tool that is supposed to be in Camera Raw 6.0. For the life of me, I can not find the barrel distortion corrections and auto CA corrections. I find them in Photoshop, albeit a very limited selection of lenses (Canon's extremely popular EF 16-35L is not even an option) but not Camera Raw. It does not appear to be an option under the lens correction tab. What am I missing?

It will be in 6.1, not 6.0.

I purchased Adobe Creative Suite with my Mac so I have an installed version. I have tried rebooting, but to no avail. When I search for help on the site, none of the help explanations fit (e.g., delete a folder that doesn't exist on my computer). I have a 27 inch iMac running OS X Yosemite version 10.10.1. Thanks.

Sscrase what specific error messages did you receive within the installation log files for the update?

CS6 Camera raw 7.0.0.308 : can't find manual defringe tool, only automatic by checking a box. The lens effect tool only offers custom and manual panel. No colors for manual defringing. ??

You should update your camera raw plugin to version 8.3

No Crop tool in Adobe Camera Raw, have updated to 8.7 but still not there, how do I get full tool panel please?

Hi, I have the $9.99 Adobe CC package but in Camera Raw I do not have the full tool bar, went to Adobe site and downloaded Camera Raw 8.7 but still not there, I have Windows 7 on PC. Please can anyone help. Thanks.

Yes, in the camera-raw preferences you can set ACR to open as a plug-in when editing TIFs or JPGs. There are three settings -- paraphrasing: Don’t, Open all, and Open those with settings. You would want to set JPG’s setting to Open All at least temporarily.
Of course you can also use PS to crop, right?

I can not open my photo, opened in lightroom, in photoshop CS4. Plug-in camera raw is missing

I can not open my photo, opened in lightroom, in photoshop CS4. a plug-in camera raw xx is missing. Advice to update does not work. There is no plug-in in the map photoshop plug-ins.

This is expected. CS4 will never be able to open files from a current version of LR and a modern camera.

Adjustment tools in Camera Raw not working

Downloaded CS 5 and opened Camera Raw, then attempted to use the adjustment tool and received the following message "Unable to create local adjustment. All the local adjustment controls are set to have no effect on the image." Can anyone provide assistance please and thanks?

I had the same problem and tried turning of GPU in Photoshop and in Lightroom which did not work, however in the RAW window when I found the preferences tab which is the tab with the 3 horizontal lines and unchecked GPU there Camera Raw did start working and the blue screen was replaced by my image. Hope this clarifies it more and you get yours to wok also!
