CAMERA RAW POST CS2

I have a Nikon D70 and a Nikon D7000.Camera raw with CS2 works fine with D70 but wont accept raw pics from D7000. How do I aquire downloads for camera raw to work with D7000 and do I need to upgrade CS2?

You would need at least CS5/ACR 6.3 to work with your D7000 raw files.
Here is a list of what cameras need what CR version:

Here is a list of what applications will host what CR version:
https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
You can currently buy CS6 for US$700 or CS6-Extended for $1000. CS6 is the last serial-number licensed version of PS and is only updated for new cameras via being able to hose the newest ACR version, but is not updated for newer OSes or newer large monitors or anything else, new.
Adobe’s current PS path is CC which is a subscription service. The most cost effective way to license it is the Photography Plan for US$10/month where the $700 CS6 price would be 70-months or 5 years and 10-months of subscription if the prices stayed the same, which it might not.
CC only works with OSX 10.7 and Win 7 or newer.
You might also be able to use the free DNG Converter to convert D7000 NEFs to DNGs and those might open in the very old ACR with CS2, but I’m not sure.
The DNG Converter is available on the Adobe Updates page:

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.

Why can I no longer open jpeg files in camera raw in CS2? The option is grayed out in Bridge

I was forced to download CS2 from the web after Adobe stopped allowing me to register it from my disks and now I can no longer open files in camera raw. Am I missing something?

As far as i know, photoshop cs2 and adobe bridge 1 (cs2) could not open jpegs or tiffs into camera raw, only camera raw files.
I believe photoshop cs3 was the first version to allow jpegs to be opened in camera raw.
Are you sure you had photoshop cs2 before?
If on the other hand, you can't open camera raw files that you used to be able to open, then you probably just need to update the camera raw plugin to version 3.7

Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows : Camera Raw 3.7 update
mac

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.

Camera Raw in CS2

Hello.
Can I use the new Canon Eos 5D Mark II with CS2? The last Camera Raw update for CS2 is more than two years old, and I start thinking that I need to get CS4 if I want to use that camera.
Thank you for your help.

Roberto,
As I understand, there are no ACR updates for any of the discontinued apps forthcoming...so, you need to upgrade to CS4 or use Lightroom. And you cannot integrate the current ACR into CS2.

D90 and Camera Raw on CS2

My husband has been looking at the D90. I was thinking of getting it for him for our anniversary. My question: we currently run CS2, but not the whole suite, only photoshop. I know that the camera raw isn't supported even on CS3 and my husband likes to shoot in raw. I've seen mention of the DNG converter for lightroom, which we don't have. I've also seen mention of the ACR, which I admit I don't know what that is so I don't know if we have it on our version of photoshop. Is this a possibility for him? Is there any solution for someone just using CS2 photoshop or are we destined to have to upgrade to CS3? I'd hate to get him this camera and he not really be able to use it the way he wants to. Thanks for any information.

ACR is the nickname of Adobe (Photoshop) Camera Raw, the plugin that lets you open raw files in Photoshop.
You will need to download the latest version of camera raw available for CS2, 3.7, IIRC.
Then use the latest version of the DNG converter to convert the raw files to DNG, that ACR will open. For the moment, the plug-in is available in release candidate version:

Camera Raw update for CS2

Will Adobe be supporting camera raw for CS2 any more? I got CS2 last year and I can't afford to update to CS3. CS2 camera raw 3.7 does not read Canon D40 raw file.

Believe me, I fully understand your situation about not being able to upgrade at this point. It is sometimes difficult to tell from the writing why someone chooses not to upgrade. There are a few people who don't want to upgrade just because they feel that Adobe is being unfair. But Adobe has their marketing strategies and other reasons why ACR 4.x will not work with older versions of Photoshop.
One of the main reasons people look forward to a new version of ACR is that the new version always supports additional cameras. There are sometimes other undocumented changes and bug fixes, but the new cameras are the main reason people want to get the new version. Your new camera is supported in the newest version of ACR. That means that it would work as seamlessly as ACR 3.7 works with your older camera. Whenever a new version of ACR is released there is also a new version of the DNG converter that supports all the same cameras as the new ACR. It is always in your best interest to try to have the latest version of the DNG converter as well as the latest version of ACR that is compatible with your version of Photoshop. Photoshop CS2 is no longer being maintained/supported by Adobe. That means that there will be no more updates to the program itself nor for any of the plug-ins. So until you are in a position to upgrade to a new version of Photoshop the DNG converter is your only alternative for working on the raw files from your camera using Photoshop and ACR. Incidentally, the most of current version of ACR and the DNG converter is 4.3.1, not 4.2.

Camera Raw sequence in CS2

When I open dng images into Camera Raw (Photoshop CS2) they appear out of sequence, for example: 001, 003,002, 004. What do I need to do to correct that? Thanks.

Stephanie,
It's sure difficult to get exact information from you. :/
>Leopard version 10.5.
I'll assume that's 10.5.6.
There are many, many known issues when running CS2 under Leopard. Adobe does not support CS2 under Leopard for that reason.
Have you at least updated your Bridge to 1.0.4.6, Photoshop to 9.0.2, and ACR to 3.7?
In OS X, ACR and Photoshop open the files in whatever order the OS hands them to each application. That's why it's recommended that yopu open the files from Bridge, not from the Finder.

Camera Raw update has changed things....

I have Canon 40D and I have the DNG converter 4.2, which is recommended for this camera. I also have the Camera Raw plugin version 3.7, which is recommended for CS2. When I would convert an image from to DNG and open it in CS2 as a Camera Raw image, the window would come up and each line under the 'Adjust' tab (starting with exposure) had an individual auto setting that the image was adjusted to. I found this to be very useful because I could just uncheck the bos to see where the original setting was and make much faster adjustments.
Then, a few days ago I get a message that there is an update available and so I run the update and now the settings are different. There is now just the default or auto and when you select auto it changes everything, it is no longer line by line.
Additionally, this update to the Camera Raw is now changed the color of all my photos. When I open the photos in my Canon software they are full of color, but once I convert them to DNG and open them as Camera Raw in CS2 they lose a lot of color. This was not happening prior to this update.
Is this an issue with the DNG converter or an issue with CS2? I have everything Adobe recommends so I don't know why the color would be desaturated so much. The photos look like crap now. This was not an issue before.
I'm wondering if I can go back and take the Camera Raw file I downloaded and replace the updated one. Does anyone recommend this approach? If so, how would I go about this to do it correctly?
Thanks!
Tyler

Actually, I do understand about the DNG converter now. It's an evolving program, I get that.
As for the update, I don't know either. I thought it was weird because I know anything after 3.7 is not for CS2. I had a window pop up and tell me there were updates from adobe and it was all legit. It was connected to Adobe. I had run a 'repair' of CS2 and so maybe that replaced some current files with the ones in the original software, but I don't know. When I go into my Adobe folders the camera raw file is the one it should be.
I have downloaded the 5.3 and I will convert some RAW images and compare them to see if that corrected the issue. For me, I shoot Real Estate photography so correct color is a big deal to these people. The most noticable place I see color loss is in wood, wood cabinets in a kitchen for example. In stead of rich dark wood it lacks color. This doesn't do well when you are tying to capture a $80k kitchen full of custom wood cabinets. I have also taken the exact same shot in jpeg and it comes out perfectly. So, I know it's somewhere between the DNG converter and opening the image in Camera Raw that the color get's lost. I realize that most of the people on here have forgotten more than I know about how this software works. I try to get the shot I want on site and therefore I have not relied on software much over the years. But, I'm trying to learn how to use this stuff and I appreciate your help while I learn it.
Thanks again!
Tyler
I really appreciate your responses!

Camera Raw Plug-in for CS2

I have an iMac running OS 10.5 with Photoshop CS2... I am unable to open raw files produced on my Kodak pro14n camera. They are coded as ".DCR"files. I have been searching for days at the various adobe downloads/plug-ins sites and have downloaded several "Camera Raw" plugins, but still I can't open any raw files. I get the error--"Not the right type of document"..Wondering if someone knows of the appropriate plugin.or what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks..

[EDITED this post. Please see next one.]
Chris,
Support for that camera was added after CS2 had ceased to be supported by Adobe. That means that you will
never be able to open the raw files from that camera
directly in CS2.
You have two options:
* Either update to Photoshop CS3 so you can run the current version of the Adobe Camera Raw plug-in (ACR 4.4.1 or ACR 4.5beta, neither og which runs under Photoshop CS2); or
* download the latest free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter (version 4.4.1 or 4.5beta), to convert your files to raw DNG files that you can open in ACR 3.7 hosted by Photoshop CS2.

Camera raw CS2 and Leopard

I have been using CS2 with Leopard.I upgraded from CS online with a download to CS2. My hard drive crashed. I was sent a link via email thru Adobe to download CS2 again. When I downloaded/installed the program, when opening Bridge the message I got was"The Application could not load Adobe Camera Raw. Use the Adobe Bridge Installer to install the adobe camera raw plug-in. I have 3.7 in the place that Ramo'n mentioned and no where else. What am I doing wrong can it work with out having to go to a lower Operating system?

Kellie,
>
"Use the Adobe Bridge Installer to install the adobe camera raw plug-in"
That error message is incomprehensible. There is no independent "Bridge Installer" and Bridge has absolutely nothing to do with installing the Camera Raw plug.in.
I can't begin to imagine what would generate such a message error, ever.
I hope someone from the ACR Team responds to your post in this forum. The creator of both Photoshop and Camera Raw, Thomas Knoll, and one of the ACR Engineers, Eric Chan, are very active here, as is Jeff Schewe, who wrote THE book on Camera Raw.
I'm sure no one is ignoring you here, but, as I told you earlier, CS2 is not supported under Leopard. Basically, it it runs fine, if it doesn't, too bad.

10.4.7 and Photoshop CS2, Adobe Camera Raw.

Since updating to 10.4.7 Adobe Bridge will not build thumbnails of DNG files and only builds 1/6th size thumbnails of NEF files. The Camera Raw Plug-in is in the correct folder but Bridge will not show Camera Raw Preferences. All Adobe troubleshooting has been followed with no success, purging cahes etc.. No problems prior to updating to 10.4.7 and the latest iTunes. Any suggestions.

There is no obvious reason why CS2 should not run on your G4. Have you kept the CS2 up to date? Updated Quicktime? Kept 10.4.7 up to date?
There have been known issues which recent (over the last 2-3 months) updates from both Apple and Adobe are said to have resolved.
One obvious suspect is third party plug-ins. Have you tried disabling them (if you have any), and then re-enabling them one by one to see if this makes a difference?
You could also try the Adobe's own forum: http://www.adobe.com/support/forums/index.html although it can be hard to navigate!

I have Photoshop CS2 vsn 9.0 with the Camera Raw 3.7 update and the Digital Negative Converter. I cannot open any RAW files. Does the fact that I've opened them in Lightroom 5.0 before make a difference?

When I try to open the RAW file (CR2) from the Photoshop application or from the Bridge (even while holding down the shift key) I get a message saying it's not the right kind of file. When I try to convert using the converter, it won't recognize the files.

Which operating system are you using?
Which camera are the camera raw files from?
Did you convert the files to dng using lightroom or the standalone dng converter?
If using the standalone dng converter, which version?
In the dng converter did you try setting the Compatibility for Camera Raw 2.4 and later
(Preferences>Compatibility)
You should also be able to send the files from lightroom to cs2 without converting to dng, either by using Photo>Edit In>Photoshop or setting cs2 as an external editor in the lightroom preferences

How do I install a camera profile into CS2 raw converter

I recently purchased a ColorChecker Passport and along with the software, created a camera profile for my Olympus E-300. The CCP software crated a camera profile that was duly placed into the c:\users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\adobe\cameraraw\cameraprofile\olumpus e-300 Directory. When I open an olympus ORF raw file from cs2 or bridge, and select the calibrate tab the only thing that is available in the camera calibrate box is ACR 2.4. Clicking the drop down arrow doesn't show anything else.
I have turned off colormanagement in photoshop.
Can anybody tell me how I can get photo shop to recognize the new camera profile?
I have tried restarting photoshop and Bridge after the DCp file was added to teh directory.
ACR verssion 3.7(?)
OS is windows home 64
8 gigs of ram
Photoshop cs2 version 9.0.1
adobe bridge cs2 version 1.0.4.6
I have also performed the same tasks on photoshop cs3 on my work computer with the same results.

The earliest version of Camera Raw to use DNG Profiles was version 4.6 in Photoshop CS3...so, you won't be able to use that DNG profile in ACR 3.7.

What camera raw plugin for Photoshop CS2 + Canon Rebel T21

I still have the excellent Photoshop CS2 and bought a Canon EOS Rebel T2i. However, the raw files come up in Bridge without picture preview. The file is a CR2 file. When double-clicked, Photoshop 2 opens and gives error dialog:
"Could not complete request because not right kind of document."
I see that version 5.7 and 6.1 of Adobe Camera Raw Plug in are compatible with this camera. Can I use either plug in with Photoshop 2?

Congratulations on your decision to move up to Photoshop CS5. It's a good product.
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by your question, though...
In my own case, I have .CR2 files associated with a program called Irfan View so that when I double click a .CR2 file it opens immediately in this very fast image viewer program. All .CR2 files have embedded JPEG previews, and I can view these embedded JPEGs from my raw files instantaneously with Irfan View.
While using Explorer, if I want to open an image file with Photoshop (i.e., to do an actual raw conversion), I either drag the file and drop it on a desktop Photoshop icon -or- I right-click the file and choose Open With - Adobe Photoshop CS5.
Multiple versions of Photoshop will live happily side by side on the same system. You just can only run one of them at a time.
Most folks recommend leaving older versions of Photoshop installed. This allows you access to the version you're familiar with so that you can go back and check settings, save actions, etc. and it does provide you a backup editor if something should go wrong with the new one.
Assuming you have the disk space, you never really need to uninstall an older version of Photoshop, and in fact uninstalling Photoshop after installing a newer version is reported to cause problems in some cases.
