Camera Raw only converts 1 at a time

Hi, I recently upgraded to CS6 from CS5.5 on Windows, and i recently just did some work in Camera Raw, and I noticed that when I saved the RAWs into JPEG format, it only did one image at a time, instead of the 3 at a time that CS5.5 did. How do i change it so that it's more than 1 at a time, because that saved me so much time when it did more than 1 before. Thanks

Here's a screenshot of what i mean below:
I have Camera RAW 8.2.
So at the top you see the one image processing. On CS5.5, three images processed at once, so I was surprised to see this in CS6.

Apparently the multi-threaded save is a cloud-only feature, now.
Here is what I see on my Windows 7 64-bit computer saving the same set of miscellaneous images in the two different PS versions using the same version of ACR.

I need to get the Adobe Camera Raw to convert my Raw shots to jpeg. Do I buy Photoshop CS6 or Photoshop CC? I am not a professional photographer and am only using photoshop sparingly.

I need to get the Adobe Camera Raw to convert my Raw shots to jpeg. Do I buy Photoshop CS6, Photoshop CC or can I just get simply the ACR? I am not a professional photographer and am only using photoshop sparingly. I currently have an old version of Photoshop, the Photoshop CS4. Thanks.

The program would stop, but the files would remain on your computer. Before stopping, you could do a batch convert to tiff or png, with a strong recommendation for tiff. Png only support transparency whereas tiff supports layers, live type, transparency, etc.
Keep in mind the app you open the tiff file in may not support all of those features, but it could if they tried.
The psd files I would backup to a cd or dvd before removing for space, but if you have the room, keep them as some apps do support psd files.
Best part is when you are ready, you can start your subscription again and use all of those files once again.

Nikon AW110 .NEF Files in Camera Raw / DNG Converter

I'm a bit new to NEF, and even RAW to be honest. But far as I can see both DNG converter 8.2 and Camera Raw (newest) is not happy with the .NEF Files from my Nikon AW110 camera. It won't open them.
Is this something that will just be updated in DNG or RAW sooner or later? I have an early release of the AW110 and naturally there is not too much support out for it yet.
Please let me know if I should be able to open these or not. It's no worry if there's nothing i can do about it yet, I just want to make sure my camera raw or photoshop isn't broken.
Trying on OS X 10.9 (and 10.8) Photoshop 14.1.2 and Camera Raw 8.2.0.94
Thanks guys

ACR/DNG Converter 8.2 were released mid-Sept, which seems to be about the time or just before the Nikon 1 AW1 was available, so you’ll need to wait until at least the next release of ACR 8.3 / DNG 8.3 sometime in during late-Nov to early-Jan timeframe, I’d expect, unless there is something strange about that camera that requires extra time.
The first place ACR/DNGC are available is the release-candidate at Adobe Labs, so check back there from time-to-time:
http://www.adobe.com/
Here is the list of currently supported cameras, where the Nikon 1 series is just above the Olympus section:

Updated camera raw / DNG converter for CS4 compatible with D800 NEF?

I have just bought a D800 but cannot convert my NEF files into DNG. I have Photoshop CS4 with latest camera raw updates available. I see in the forum that an update is available in the lab but only for CS5. Shall we expect an update for CS4 as well? Thanks

No. There will be no more ACR updates for Photoshop CS4. That version is no longer supported. You can download the DNG converter and convert your images to digital negative files that can then be opened in the ACR that you already have. Since your camera is so new I'm not sure if it's even supported by the DNG converter. You might have to wait for the next update.
Your other alternative would be to upgrade your Photoshop. Of course, that will cost a little money. But not nearly as much as your new camera did.

Camera Raw/DNG Converter 3.5 Update Posted

Windows:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106&platform=Windows
Macintosh:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106&platform=Macintosh
This new version of the Camera Raw plug-in replaces the original Camera Raw plug-in that was installed with Adobe Photoshop CS2 and Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 and 4.0 software. Visit the Camera Raw page for a complete list of supported cameras.
Important notice:
Read the installation instructions carefully. Incorrect installation will prevent Adobe Bridge and Adobe Camera Raw 3.5 from reading raw images correctly.
Support for the following cameras has been added in this update.
Kodak EasyShare P712
Nikon D2Xs
Panasonic DMC-FZ50
Panasonic DMC-L1
Sony A100

To answer the most likely questions:
No, this update does not support the Nikon D80 nor the Canon 400D [Rebel XTi] yet. We receieved these cameras too late in our development cycle to make the cut for this release. We understand there are a lot of users now getting these cameras who want support as soon as possible.
There are also a bunch of other cameras models likely to be announced at Photokina which will want to support as soon as possible.
Because of this demand, we are planning to make the time gap between the ACR 3.5 and 3.6 releases shorter than usual, so you will not have to wait all that long for support.
Also, we are nearing completion of the Beta 4 release of Lightroom. This will be released fairly soon (before the release of ACR 3.6). Lightroom is currently in a free public beta program:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/lightroom
Beta 4 of Lightroom will have preliminary support for both the Nikon D80 and the Canon 400D.
So in the time period the Beta 4 release of Lightroom (soon) and ACR 3.6 (shorter cycle than usual), you wil be able to processor your Nikon D80 and Canon 400D files using Lightroom Beta 4. You will also have the option of using the Beta 4 build Lightroom to convert the Nikon D80 and Canon 400D raw files into DNG format, which can then be used with ACR versions as old as 2.4.

Camera Raw objects convert to "2010" if opened

My workflow involves DNG’s that have had basic corrections and sharpening applied with Lightroom 2.x. I open these as object layers in Photoshop, giving me the flexibility to still make adjustments to Camera Raw settings if needed. With PS12 and ACR 6.x, the simple act of opening these smart layers immediately converts their “process” (under the “Camera Calibration” tab in ACR) type from LR 2.x-compatible “2003” mode to “2010 (current).”
“Process” changes how sharpening and noise reduction behave, and is meant to provide compatibility with the “older” “2003” settings, which are still very much alive for users of PS10-11 and all LR (production, not beta) users.
PS12/ACR6 automatically applies the “2010” process whenever the ACR dialog is accepted, whether during file open or layer open, even if you never open the tab that “process” lives in. While ACR changes the mode, it leaves sharpening and noise settings unchanged, resulting in significant over-sharpening of the raw images. I can go to this tab and manually reset the mode to “2003,” but I really shouldn’t have to.
ACR 6 should default to using whatever “process” it finds in the raw file’s xmp, and remain in that mode unless the user explicitly changes it. If there are no previous settings, then ACR would default to the “2010” process. If (for some reason) users want the new-file default to be “2003," then create a preference in ACR to make that happen.
This would allow me to not worry about “process” toggling behind my back on “old” files, and would allow PS 12 to properly respond to all files; those that have had settings changed in ACR 5.c or 6.x, as well as unprocessed ones.

That's a bug and should be fixed in the release version of ACR 6.1.

Photoshop CS5 Clicking Done in Camera raw only returns to Bridge

I have th latest camera raw and pshop.
Since i loaded CS5, bridge will not open in pshop, but only returns me to camera raw when I click done or ctl-click done.
Any suggestions why?
Thanks
Hal

I've got the same problem! but the depicted solution doesnt work for me. did you solve it?

Camera Raw only offers to open 16-bit raw files in 8-bit mode

I am using a windows CS6 Bridge => Camera Raw (8.2) => CS6 Photoshop (13.0.1 x64) to try to open various 16-bit raw files (.dng, .nef, .arw) which Bridge sees as 16-bit, but only an 8-bit version makes it into photoshop.
How do I convince Camera Raw to do its job?
Lightroom (4.4) is able to export a 16-bit .psd which sort-of-works but shouldn't be necessary.
Thanks in advance,
Steve

You set the bitdepth in your work options dialog box, which you access by clicking on the line that looks like a link right under the ACR preview:
Don't be afraid to read the Help files or other documentation that came with Photoshop (otherwise known as Read The Fine Manual).

Two cameras, but only one works at a time, need help

I've gone over the messages here but not found any answers to my type of problem. I have two WVC54GCAs both have static IPs on my lan and I can view them both fine from there.
I forwarded the port for one to 47624 and the other to 47625 in my router at home and in the camera configuration I specified to use these alternate ports instead of the default 80 port. When I get in to work and try to view them over the internet by their ip address and port# (e.g. http://22.22.22.222:47624) I get a timeout error, but I can see one if I go to port 22.22.22.222:80 (even though the port I specified in the camera setup was an alternate port). I used dyndns open port testing tool (http://www.dyndns.com/support/tools/openport.html) which shows 47624 and 47625 are both open ok.
I can log into my router on 22.22.22.222:8080 from work and the router logs show that the dyndns tool connected to the router via these ports upon testing. I was using a Netgear router and thought that might be the problem, so went out and got a Linksys wRT54G2 router to see if that worked better, but have the same issue as with the Netgear. Here's the weird part, if I go into the router from work and change one of the cameras to forward to port 80 instead of the alternate port I'd set for it, I can view that camera on port 80 despite the camera config still set to use an alternate port. So then when I take the first camera off port 80 in my router and change the second one to port 80, I can view the second one as well that way. I have Comcast as my ISP and a Motorola SB5100 cable modem and can't figure out why I am unable to bring them up over the internet using the alternate port settings I specified. I've spent a lot of time on this, I'd really appreciate any help or other suggestions on what to do.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

As far as I know, all Comcast modems are just bridges...no firewalls in them at all.... The other possibility is that your IT dept at work is blocking the traffic...have you tried this from any other place outside your LAN?

I just upgraded to Photoshop cs6 so that my new camera (Nikon D7100) would work in Camera Raw. However, it will not download from the "Update" option in CS6.

I just upgraded to Photoshop cs6 so that my new camera (Nikon D7100) would work in Camera Raw (I was told that the Camera Raw update 8.3, which is available for CS6, included this camera). However, it will not download from the "Update" option in CS6. I have tried over 10 times - it just says update is not working. and I cannot find an alternate way of downloading this file. So I still can use my camera, even thought I paid to upgrade. HELP please.

What OS do you have? You say you have explained what you had (computer/opsys) but I honestly don't see it here. If you had mentioned that my advice would have been different; I believe you can only upgrade as far as Camera Raw 8.3 on an older Windows system. There is more information here (look specifically for the "Revert to 8.3 ..." titles).
Adobe Camera Raw Help | Camera Raw/DNG Converter 8.4 on Mac OS 10.6, Windows XP, and Vista
What you've done/written in your last post confuses things further, unfortunately. Photoshop 13.1 is strictly a Creative Cloud version. The highest you can go is Photoshop CS6 13.0.1.3 with perpetual license.
And as far as I can recall, that version can work on Windows back to XP:
System requirements | Photoshop
I don't think you're out of luck, but you seem to be leaping into doing things without having the full story, and are jumping to conclusions a bit too quickly.
Here's what I suggest you try:
1. Remove Photoshop entirely with the Creative Suite Removal Tool:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
2. Install Photoshop CS6 from your original media or from here:
Download CS6 products
3. Update the application using its own Help - Updates process. That really should get you the latest Camera Raw version that will work. If that does not bring you a Camera Raw that works with your Nikon, use the "Revert to 8.3" instructions above.

PSE7, PS CS4, Organizer, Bridge, Camera Raw, Canon DPP

I'm trying to develop a process for using the various tools available to easily browser through a shoot's photos, zoom as needed, choose favorites, make any changes, etc.
I have PSE7/Organizer, Bridge/PS CS4, Camera Raw for both PSE7 and PS CS4, and Canon DPP. I owned PSE7 first, and I like it's backup features as well as the keyword/album and browsing interface, but I'm finding it may not be good for fast processing of a shoot's photos when they are RAW.
I'm shooting in RAW and I'm finding that zooming RAW images in Organizer is not possible beyond whatever preview image is present. Instead, I must open the image, which causes Camera Raw to open. Once in Camera Raw, I can zoom with greater control.
But what I notice is that using Bridge may be better to use for browsing RAW images, especially if I desire to open them in Camera Raw for greater zoom control, touch ups or whatever. The reason is that it seems to take longer for PSE7's Organizer to open a photo in PSE7 and Camera Raw than it takes for Bridge to open the same in PS CS4 and Camera Raw.
Here are my findings:
First time open of RAW or DNG:
Organizer opening to PSE7/Camera Raw: 15 seconds.
Bridge opening to PS CS4/Camera Raw: 10 seconds.
Second time open of RAW or DNG:
Organizer opening to PSE7/Camera Raw: less than 10 seconds.
Bridge opening to PS CS4/Camera Raw: less than 5 seconds
"Second time open" means that I keep the relevant application open when I return to the organizer. For example, after PSE7 opens, I do not close it when returning to Organizer, and likewise, when returning to Bridge, I do not close PS CS4 when returning to Bridge. The above figures show Bridge can open a RAW or DNG photo into PS CS4 and Camera Raw faster in both the case of PS CS4 not already open, and when an instance of PS CS4 is already open.
In exploring all of this, I tried using DPP as my "Organizer" and it, of course, was the fastest at opening photos to its editor which has a few preset zoom positions. It does have a "Transfer to Photoshop" option but that takes 30 seconds and converts to a TIFF in a temp directory. So DPP seems like something to avoid unless there are RAW editing features which do not exist elsewhere.
Given the above, it seems the best process for me is to use PSE7's Organizer for the features I like (i.e., backup, keywords, albums), but use Bridge/PS CS4 when processing a shoot's photos for keepers. Then use Canon DPP only if it has something which I must use, or just like better.
Do my choices here make sense, where I'm not missing something? If there's a good link that discusses high-level process for dealing with a shoot's photos to find keepers, that would be great to know about.
I realize what's best for anyone really depends on each person's preferences/needs, so the questions I ask are seeking general answers given the limited information I've explained about what's important for me (i.e., going through photos quickly, having good zoom control for review, and being able to go to either PSE7 or PS relatively fast... my findings say that Bridge/PS CS4 seems best for this unless DPP has something I must utilize).
Thanks,
Tom

Barbara and George M, You both had answers, but only one can be selected as "Correct" ... I wish the forum allowed splitting that. I gave Barbara's answer the "correct" mark since it was first. George M, I clicked "Helpful Answer" on your response, but your info was much more than just "Helpful"... great tips on the import/download file/dir naming. I'll look into that.
I played around with Bridge/PS quite a bit more, and I'm sold on its way of doing things. I get it now. It stores all keywords with the files, so this removes the need for any organizer-proprietary/custom format databases for retaining such information. This is actually the way I prefer to work, with as much control and as close to the files as possible, or at least with enough info about the files so I can do the right backups, ensure I'm saving the information I add, and so forth. PSE7 has the benefit of allowing keywords without affecting the files, but that's not a big deal for me so long as the metadata-writing software in the products I use isn't buggy, destroying the file (I know, I know, have a backup!).
I really liked PSE7 because I was thinking in terms of an organizer maintaining non-photo data (i.e., keywords) as does PSE7, but since Bridge embeds the info as metadata in the photo file itself, it removes the need for that type of organizer. With that known, the issue of backups no longer needs to be organizer-centric. With Bridge, I know the files and folders themselves is effectively The database. That means I can use whatever I use for my normal backups, and things are actually much more manageable and understandable down that route. So the Bridge/PS route is not only more powerful and faster (in my experience on my laptop), but the Bridge-way of embedding the keywords in the file keeps me loosely coupled, actually completely decoupled from being reliant on an organizer-specific database and all that jazz.
Thanks for helping/clarifying with your feedback on this.
Tom

Still Looking for Camera Raw Plug-In for CS4

I have Adobe CS4, and, after extensive searching, cannot find the correct version of the Camera Raw plug-in for my Mac (OS 10.6.8). I just did successfully download and install the DNG converter 8.1 for Macs. Today I downloaded version 5.4 for mac then it told me to quit before proceeding with the installation, that there was a newer version available. Adobe states my camera's minimum requirement for Camera Raw is version 5.4.
file://localhost/Users/Cea/Desktop/Adobe%20Camera%20Raw%20cannot%20install%20message.tiff
Can anyone guide me to the right one? Camera Raw only been a dream until now. I finally have a great DSLR that supports raw, I've been playing around with it in iPhoto, but it's now time for me to take this to the next level.
Thanks very much.

Ask such specific questions on the Camera RAW or Photoshop forums and include info about your camera. If it's a newer model, this may ber perfectly normal and the files may require you to upgrade to CS5.1 so you can use the latest versions of Camera RAW or use the standalone DNG converter...

Re: Batch function / Preserving Camera Raw edits

Production Premium CS5.5
Windows 7 Pro sp1 64-bit
Hi folks - My problem is Photoshop's Batch (via Bridge), nor Image Processor nor a Droplet will preserve my Camera Raw edits. It's as if the .XMP files don't exist, though I store them in the same directory as the .CR2 files.
Here's my workflow:
Copy images via Bridge to a new directory on HDD (.cr2 files)
Make selects, label, move / delete rejects
Run Global Camera Raw edits
Run any Local Camera Raw edits
Convert .cr2 to .psd
The easiest way to convert a bunch of files is to run a Batch command (or Image Processor or a Droplet) but every time I've tried all the Camera Raw edits disappear. I've read the other posts about this issue but the most recent was a year ago and there was no solution in the thread. Maybe someone has figured it out and can help me.
Consulting Adobe's Help page...
(underlining is mine)
"Here are some tips for automating the processing of camera raw image files:
When you record an action, first select Image Settings from the Camera Raw Settings menu in the Camera Raw dialog box. In this way, the settings particular to each image (from the Camera Raw database or sidecar XMP files) are used to play back the action.
If you plan to use the action with the Batch command, you may want to use the Save As command and choose the file format when saving the camera raw image.
When you use an action to open a camera raw file, the Camera Raw dialog box reflects the settings that were in effect when the action was recorded. You may want to create different actions for opening camera raw image files with different settings."
from http://help.adobe.com/en_US/creativesuite/cs/using/WS91C1E0BD-9600-42b2-8EBE-1E012ED61058. html#WS43B6DFCC-DBBE-4a9a-A985-7871DF914288
I don't understand how both underlined sections can be true. If the first bullet point is correct there'd be no problem, unless I'm misreading it. It says quite clearly the edits will be honored provided you choose "Image Settings" from the (teeny-tiny) drop-down menu. When I do that the resulting action (as seen in the steps) is always recorded as if I chose "Custom Settings." But that should work too; either way, "Image Settings" or "Custom Settings," I'm telling the script to read the .XMP files, which are in the same directory as the raw files.
But then the 3rd bullet point suggests we create different actions for every Camera Raw edit. I can't believe that's the case - a different action for every edit? That would kinda kill the idea of automation wouldn't it? Well hopefully it's my fault - user error - and someone can set me straight.
Any thoughts you can share will be greatly appreciated... Thanks!

You have a fair point about the help document, both lines are very contradicting. And indeed, it is kind of ridicule to create an action for each different setting, not helpful for speeding up workflows at all...
Personally I almost never use the Image Processor but it has a setting to 'open first image to apply settings'. When you select this option the first image opens the ACR window and you only have to hit enter or 'open image' this one time to let the processor do its work automatically on the next files to get the results showing the correct settings made in ACR.
The easiest way to convert a bunch of files is to run a Batch command (or Image Processor or a Droplet) but every time I've tried all the Camera Raw edits disappear. I've read the other posts about this issue but the most recent was a year ago and there was no solution in the thread. Maybe someone has figured it out and can help me.
No, not for me. The easiest way for converting my DNG with settings to a PSD (but also as Tiff and jpeg) is to use the save image button bottom left in the ACR window ( ACR CC has a lot of extra options and ability to create presets with amount of pixels, color profile and bit depth). You can select multiple files in Bridge to open in ACR filmstrip mode and cycle through them with tab, shift and arrow keys to apply settings very quickly. When satisfied with the result select all files in the ACR filmstrip and use the save image button to have them all saved as PSD in one go
I also have a lot of custom created actions and never have been able to create an action for open Raw files (in my case DNG) bypassing the ACR window and have the settings applied. My solutions for this is to use the save as command in ACR and save them as PSD to a dedicated folder. Then I have no problem to run the action in PS itself. Or a droplet for that matter.
