Camera RAW/Photoshop still deficient

These "Do it now" items remain:
• Camera RAW still does not have the same crop overlays as both Photoshop and Lightroom (e.g., Golden Spiral, Triangle, etc.)
• Photoshop still has a broken Focus Stacker (Edit Menu: Auto Blend: Stack)
• Bridge AOM (Adobe Output Module) still lacks CSS3/HTML5 slideshow scripts (Flash DOA)
• Glitchy screen redraws often don't update live brush size
• Boolean feature would greatly improve searches

Open pictures in Camera RAW and still have paths/clipping paths?

Hello
A big problem in Bridge is that I can not open my pictures in Camera RAW and still have my paths left. I work in a place where we get loads of product photos from many different companies and they almost always have a clipping path in it. Many of the pictures do we have to fix like colour, exposure etc and this is here Bridge comes in as the best solution to batchfix them. But now I have to take the long way through Photoshop. Is there a solution for this?, an update from Adobe or a script or something.
Have a nice day!

You do know that you can deconfigure Camera Raw from opening TIFFs and JPEGs, right?
These are the settings I've chosen. Done this way, JPEGs and TIFFs just open right into Photoshop, and their clipping paths would be intact.

How to get Camera RAW / Photoshop CS5 to work with Canon 100D?

How to get Camera RAW / Photoshop CS5 to work with Canon 100D? I don't want to by this product again and again...

In what way is ACR not working in Bridge? Is there no right-click Open in Camera Raw available from Bridge, or there is, but the ACR version is less than ACR 6.7.1 or what exactly is the issue?
Also, if you open Photoshop and do Help / About Plug-ins / Camera Raw, is ACR missing from the list, or if not, what version does it say is installed?
You might also want to describe what methods you have tried to correct the issue, since saying you've tried what you've seen posted and they didn't work, isn't really much to go on.

Canon 70D et Camera Raw (Photoshop CS5)

J'ai acheté un canon EOS 70D. Je n'arrive pas à utiliser Camera Raw (Photoshop CS5) avec cet appareil. Can you help me ?

Photoshop CS5 is not going to be able to directly open your raw files.
Adobe stopped updating older versions to be able to read raw files from newer cameras when they released a new major version of Photoshop. Photoshop CS5 is no longer receiving Camera Raw updates.
To double check this yourself:
First you need to determine whether Adobe has released support for your new camera in your version of Photoshop. To do that, look at these two pages. You'll want to find out the earliest version of Camera Raw that can support your camera, then what version of Photoshop can run that version of Camera Raw.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
Since your version of Photoshop cannot support your camera, you can download and install the latest version of the free Adobe DNG Converter, which can take your raw files as input and put out DNG format files, which your version of Photoshop can open.
Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
The DNG converter DOES work, but if you want maximal quality from your raw files (not to mention the convenience and ease of use of directly opening your raw files) you'll want the latest version of Photoshop. Adobe has made substantial improvements in raw conversion quality in recent years.

Photoshop CC says up to date in CC Desktop but Camera Raw is still 8.3

When I look at my CC desktop app it says Photoshop is up to date but I know it's not becaus it's still using Camera Raw 8.3 and the 8.4 has been officially released for a week now.
It detected that my Lightroom was needing an update so I think the CC desktop is OK. Also, when I go into Photoshop and select "Updates" from the help menu it does not find any updates.
I already tried signing out and deleting the OMM.db file or whatever it's called and that did not work.
This is not the first problem I've had with updates either. One of the solutions says to remove and reinstall the app needing updates. How am I supposed to know if an app needs an update if it does not prompt me? The only reason I know about Camera Raw is because it's tracked by the photo community and people need that updated all the time to support new cameras.

Fc4122 can you please confirm the version of Camera RAW you are currently utilizing? You can find the version by completing the following steps:
Mac OS:
Launch Photoshop CC
Go the the Photoshop Menu and select About Plug-In
Choose Camera RAW
Windows:
Launch Photoshop CC
Go to the Help Menu and select About Plug-In
Choose Camera RAW
If you can please post the version of Camera RAW version which is indicated it would be appreciated.
If you Camera RAW 8.3 is listed then please remove and reinstall Photoshop CC. If necessary the installation logs can be reviewed to determine why the update may have failed. You can find more details on how to review your installation log files at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html. You would want to focus on the log file for the Camera RAW update which failed to apply. You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

Camera Raw, Photoshop CS2 and Nikon D40

Can't open camera raw images from my Nikon D40 in Photoshop CS2.
I downloaded the camera raw plug-in (3.7) but still cannot open the images.
Many problems:
1) I don't have the folder described in the instructions Library>Application Support>Adobe>Plug-ins>CS2?File Formats. My plug-ins are located inside my Photoshop folder. Even after I put the camera raw 3.7 in the plug-ins folder, it doesn't show up under "About Plug-ins."
2) I don't have an NEF plug-in anywhere. I searched the places mentioned in forums as well as a my entire computer.
Help!

Just one note of clarification that you need to understand. You do NOT have to match the version of the DNG converter with your version of Photoshop. You always want to use the latest version of the DNG converter. It will convert images from all of the most recent cameras that ACR supports. So, currently (as of today) you want to be using DNG converter version 4.4.1. It will create DNG files that will be compatible with any version of ACR back to version 2.4 which works with Photoshop CS.
The other thing to verify is what version of Camera Raw is installed on your computer. You want to make sure you are using version 3.7, because that is the last version that was created for Photoshop CS2. If you are using a Windows computer, open Photoshop and then go to Help/About Plug-Ins and click on Camera Raw. It should only be listed once; if it is listed more than once you have a problem. A dialog will appear that will indicate what version is installed. If it is anything other than ACR 3.7, then you don't have the latest version available.
Be aware that there will never be another update of ACR for Photoshop CS2. But if you keep track of the updates and always keep the latest version of the DNG converter on your computer you will have support for every camera that is supported by ACR.
I don't know if any of this information is helpful to you. I just want to help you understand how to integrate DNG files into your workflow.

Lightroom / Camera Raw / Photoshop issues

I have a workflow problem that's driving me nuts, so I'm hoping someone can help. I organize my photos in Lightroom and do most of my editing in Photoshop CS6. The problem I'm having is that if I select a photo in LR, then work on it in Photoshop, I can't figure out any way to incorporate Adobe Camera Raw into that process. I can open the photos in Raw via Bridge, then process and reopen them in Photoshop, but when I save them, Lightroom doesn't find or recognize them. So what's the workflow to process photos in Camera Raw, then Photoshop, while still having Lightroom recognize them and know where they are?

I agree, the best answers are in the previous replies to the OP. Use Lightroom.!
As an alternative-
If you open a RAW image into Photoshop by a Right-click and select- "Edit In" then "Open as Smart Object in Photoshop" you will have the image open as a background layer in Photoshop with the small corner "smart object" icon. If you then Double-left-click on the PS layer thumbnail this will re-open the image in ACR linked to Photoshop (not Lightroom). This allows you to have created many extra adjustment layers in PS but always go back to ACR if you save the edited image as PSD or TIFF with layers. This is 'Non-destructive' re-editing of the background layer.

Installed Camera Raw update, still cannot access images from Canon G15

The download statement said it was upgraded but, when I tried opening the RAW files, there was still nothing accessible.

Buy Lightroom (much cheaper alternative to Photoshop) - does all your 'Photo-related' tasks. Full version of LightRoom 4 is $149/- - http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-lightroom.html
LightRoom 4 supports ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) 7. Once processed with Lightroom, if you still need, you could take the photo in JPG or TIFF format into Photoshop CS5 for further processing.
Another option is to use Canon Raw Codec that would've come with your camera's box to process the RAW images and then take them into Photoshop.

Saved download for Camera Raw update. still can't open Raw pic in CS5. How do I get the downloaded files to work so I can open Raw images? thanks, Artist Ray

Bought new camera to work with Raw images in CS5 but file would not open so I downloaded latest update. It only allowed me to save in a file ( could have OPENED instead of saving so I don't know those results). How do I get the new download to work in CS5?
Thanks for your help, Artist Ray

Downloaded, unzipped, installed latest Camera Raw, but still cannot view D300 NEF files

Hello,
I have CS3 running on a 32-bit Windows Vista computer. I downloaded the latest Camera Raw plug-in, unzipped it, and installed it, but I still cannot view my Nikon D300 NEF files. I have made sure that I only have the one plug-in mentioned. I went to CS3 Bridge and made sure that Raw is enabled in Preferences. Anyone got any ideas?
BTW, don't know if it matters, but I use Irfanview as my regular picture viewer.
Thanks,
John

John,
Please excuse my inexperience, but I, too, am having a difficult time with this issue. I am trying to view RAW images on CS3 from a D300 Nikon camera. My D70 images are fine in CS3, but not the D300 images. I have downloaded and downloaded ACR 4.6 and made sure it is in the path you suggested, but I am getting the same message, "file is not the correct type." I have Windows 7 on a HP desktop computer. I am also receiving an error message when I open Bridge, which tells me, more or less, that Bridge is not compatible with the OS on the HP. Don't know what else to do...

Camera Raw Photoshop CS2 & Bridge Parsing Problem

I am having an issue with Photoshop CS2. I am trying to work on a .tiff file that I have used the HDR automate tool from. The HDR renders files in 32-bit and therefor I render back to 16-bit once I have compressed the files and save as a .tiff file.
I then use bridge to try and open the .tiff file and the camera raw file is shaded grey. I also have tried opening in PS CS2 and this message comes up when I try and force Camera Raw to Open..."Could not complete your request because the file-format module cannot parse the file".
PS will open the tiff file on a compressed version and not in the Camera Raw Function.
I have read numerous posts on this kind of problem and people say to update your camera raw plu-in and I have done that and am having the same problem.
Any suggestions I would very much appreciate it.

Hi Patrick,
You need CR 4.x and Ps CS3 in order to open non-camera raw TIFFs.

Cannot open jpeg in camera raw photoshop cc

I can open the jpeg file in photoshop cc and in bridge. If I try to open in photoshop cc using open as (windows 7 32 bit) I get an error message "Could not complete your request because the file-format cannot parse the file" when I select camera raw. If I open the jpeg directly in photoshop cc, the file opens ok and then I can use camera raw thru filters. The file will open fine in camera raw via bridge. This same jpeg file opens fine in camera raw using phtoshop cs6.
thanks
Denis

I am experiencing this same problem. The file was created by xray software. It opens with Windows Photo just fine. This problem was never answered for DenisL111. Why is that?

Camera RAW, Photoshop CS, Nikon D50

I have Photoshop CS (not CS1 or 2 or 3, just CS; i.e. v. 8.0) and my camera is a Nikon D50. I have tried installing the Adobe Camera RAW plug-in, versions 2.0 and 2.3, but if I try to open a RAW image from my camera (i.e. in NEF format), I get an error message: 'not the right kind of document'. Can anyone please advise?

I'm afraid I have a new question. With the Adobe DNG converter (v. 5.3) and ACR 2.4, I can now open .NEF files from my Nikon D50 camera in Photoshop CS (v.8.0) and make adjustments to exposure, contrast, etc. But I have a problem with image size. As soon as I convert the RAW (.NEF) file to .dng, it becomes very large, and if I open it in PS and save it, it becomes huge. Here is an example, starting with a particular .NEF file straight from my camera:
.NEF: 5.4 MB
.dng: 11.9 MB
Saved in PS as:
.raw: 34.5 MB
.psd: 34.5 MB
.tif: 34.5 MB
It seems that I cannot save the image in any of these formats as a JPEG in PS.
At that rate, I shall rapidly run out of hard disk space, and even if I get images off my hard disk by burning them to CD, I should only be able to store about 20 photographs on one CD.
It seems that I cannot save a converted image as a JPEG in PS itself, but if I use GraphicConverter to convert the image, saved in one of the formats discussed above, to JPEG at maximum quality, it reduces to 4.2 MB. Is this my only solution to being able to store a reasonable number of photos? It seems rather cumbersome. I should be most grateful for information as to why the file gets so big, and what I can do about it.

Problem with Viewing Camera Raw/Photoshop Edited Files in Microsoft Applications

Hi
When I edit my portraits in Camera Raw or Photoshop and save as sRGB JPEGS they all look fine when viewed in Bridge, Camera Raw and Photoshop.
If I view the portraits in Microsoft Picture Viewer or create a web age of the portraits within Photoshop and view in Internet Explorer, all images look over saturated (particularly the reds) and all the portraits look like they are flushed, blushing, over heated and glowing!
Unfortunately, most people I email, send images to, or post them on the web, will be viewing them in a Microsoft application and therefore they do not appear how they should do with the reds over saturated.
Does anone have a solution to this that is not hit and miss. I do not see the point of investing in CS3 and a professional monitor if my editing looks nothing like the output. Any information would be gratefully received.
Many thanks

This isn't a Camera Raw issue...it's something you should post on the Photoshop or Color Management forums...I note you have posted on the Ps Windows forum and already received an answer (from a Photoshop engineer no less).
