Camera raw wont open!

hi, iv been struggling to open canon cr2 files in camera raw, every time i try i get the message  "Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camera Raw editing required that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature."
im am using -  mac OS X 10.6.8, and both bridge and photoshop are CS5. and my camera is a cannon 500d
i was told that downloading a dmv converter or a camera raw plug in might solve this problem but i dont know if this is reliable or where i would even find them.
i really need this software working asap for uni so i hope someone can help x

The D3300 has been supported since Camera Raw version 8.4. So have you downloaded the trial version of Photoshop CC? Are you sure what version of Camera Raw you are using? In Photoshop go to Help->about plug-ins->Camera Raw, and it will tell you what version is installed.

    Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?
    The next step would be to restore the iphone as new in iTunes. If that doesn't work, make an appointment at the Genius Bar at the nearest Apple Store.

  • Ipod 4th Gen camera shutter wont open

    I recently updated the Ipod to ios 6.1.6 but the camera shutter wont open and when i save photos from apps like safari it saves them then instantly deletes the photos I just told safari to save. this is my first apple product and to be honest with this much problems i'm actually considering a more Linux based device. but if the apple community can help me in anyway to fix my expensive device it would be appreciated.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Front camera shutter wont open anymore after upgrade to iOS5.1

    i have a less than a month old ipad2...after upgrading to the iOS 5.1 the front camera shutter wont open anymore...did the reset but it didnt work.will downgrading to the 4.3.3 make it work again?? please help...

    You can't downgrade, it's not supported. Have you tried closing the Camera app completely and seeing if it works when you re-open the app ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Camera 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

    camera shutter wont open to take a pic....???

    The most popular thread on this has nearly 25,000 views. Below is the follow-up post I put on that thread and all these related threads.
    If it was just a hardware problem, Apple should fix it for all of us. But I can't quite understand how it's a hardware problem when the problem is not common to all my camera apps; the Apple camera app does not work at all now, but I can take regular pics with other camera apps I have.
    But still, trying to switch to FaceTime/self-portrait mode results in total failure and the need to restart....if it was just a hardware issue I'd expect it to not work for all apps.

  • CS3 with Camera Raw wont read Canon 1DM3 images

    Appreciate any help with this vexing problem
    MacBook Pro V10.4.9
    CS3 Extended
    Bridge 2.1.0.100
    Updated to Camera Raw 4.1
    Have reinstalled Camera Raw 4.1 Plug-In into correct folder several times:
    "Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS3/File Formats" per Adobe instructions
    Removed previous Camera Raw plug-in
    Reopened Bridge and it still wont show images
    Went to tools and Purged the Cache - no change
    When I double click on the preview a Photoshop message appears
    "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file"
    I can view the images with Photomechanic
    Can open images with Canon's Digital Photo Professional but I dont like that program
    Again any help appreciated
    Best
    Jay

    Jeff
    You were right on the money !
    The camera was recording sRAW images
    - this despite the fact that it shows RAW on the camera and the file icons are labelled RAW
    I changed to 'true' RAW and Bridge and CS3 work just fine
    Thanks again

  • How to change preference setting in Photoshop CC 2014 to not automatically lauch Adobe Camera Raw when opening Nikon raw .NEF file

    When I launch Photoshop CC 2014 and then open a .nef raw file it launches Adobe Camera Raw and I click Open Image, then I "Convert to Smart Object" then launch Filter > Camera Raw Filter.  Is there a preference somewhere for raw files that just bring you right into Adobe Photoshop without stopping at Camera Raw first?  Thanks!

    Gene,
    Ah!  Okay, makes sense now.  I just learned tonight that some features are not available when using Camera Raw as a Smart Filter.  One being Lens Profile Correction.  So it makes sense to have have Camera Raw open right off the bat to make some tweaks first then continue on.  I found the below on the Adobe website.  Thank you so much!! 
    Note: The following features are not available when using Camera Raw as a Smart Filter (that are normally available in Camera Raw), primarily because they don’t make sense in the filter context: Workflow options and preferences, crop and straighten tools, rotation tools (rotate left/right buttons), snapshots, camera and lens profile corrections.

    What size does the properties dialog show for the 6.7 camera raw plugin?
    Adobe keeps changing the support pages around, so you might try one of these two:

  • Camera Raw default opening in PSE9

    I recently installed PSE9 on my MAC alongside my previous version PSE6. I prefer some of the options(ie. Bridge instead of Organizer, etc.). After processing an image in Camera Raw the image always opens in the default PSE9. How can I make ACR open my images directly into PSE6?

  • Deselecting images in camera raw before opening the rest is deleting the files from finder!

    Hi, as the title suggests, im having an issue with of our machines. There are 6 running camera raw and it is the only one to do this (version 6.6).
    Example situation:
    10 RAW files are dragged into photoshop,
    they open in camera raw.
    all are selected and a white balance taken from the 'grey card' image that has been shot specifically.
    the grey card image is then deselected (with backspace button or otherwise) because i don't need it to be opened in photoshop for further editing with the rest.
    the problem:
    after clicking 'open images' the deselected grey card image is dissapearing from my finder window. the delay in opening in photoshop means i can actually watch it go.
    this doesnt happen on any other of my machines in the studio and that action should simply tell camera raw that i dont want to open that particular image in photoshop.
    can anyone tell me why it is doing that??
    we're working off our server (as we normally do), so the files arent being sent to the trash. if raws are worked on from the dekstop, the same thing happens and they obviously go straight to the trash then
    why is camera raw deleting my files? are they recovereable? how do i stop it?
    any help would be great. its a fast working studio and the grey card shots are not something we can afford to be losing.
    thanks,
    dom.

    Sounds like you're working over a network.
    This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
    If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
    See: 
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
      Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
         Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.   It should.
        Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
      If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
    When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

  • Skips Camera Raw when opening image from PSE organizer to CS

    I have PSE7 from before and recently purchased CS6. I want to keep using PSE as an organizer and edit in CS6. When opening a raw file (CR2) from the organizer to CS using Ctrl-h the image opens directly in CS without opening in Camera Raw first. If I open an image directly in CS it goes through CR first. How do I send the image directly to Camera Raw and then to CS from the organizer? I am running on Windows 7 64 bit. The Camera Raw for PSE7 if 5.6 and 7.3 for CS6. Tried posting under photoshop (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5006582#5006582), where it was suggested I post in the elements forum.

      Unfortunately PSE7 can’t be updated to Camera Raw 7 and this is undoubtedly preventing the file from opening in the CS6 raw dialog. Your best bet is to open from CS6 Bridge by double clicking the thumbnail in Bridge. In any case Elements will create an export copy for external editing with Ctrl+H and you will end up with lots of duplicates and sidecar XMP files stacked in version sets in the Organizer. I think for raw files you will find Bridge much easier. If you finally save as PSD, Tiff or jpeg after you finish editing that version will also be visible in Bridge but you could also import it into Elements e.g. if you wish to add it to an album.

  • Using Bridge to Camera Raw to Open Image button also drop shadow problems

    I remember when I was working with RAW in PSE 8. I would be in Bridge looking at a pic and double click on it. PSE 8 would open in Camera RAW and I could play with the pic a bit, make some adjustments, then click on OPEN IMAGE. When I did that it would open in PSE and it would be in jpg format. With this PSE 9 and the updated Camera RAW 6.3, when I punch OPEN IMAGE I still have a picture labeled .CR2 which I think still means RAW. When I double click in Bridge the .CR2 pic shows as 8 bit depth. I can do a little more work on it and use SAVE AS. When I do that, the sample file name that shows is still in .CR2 format and I must change that to .jpg and then below change from PHOTOSHOP to JPEG to save my file as a jpg file. Is there something that I have to change in preferences to get it to open the image in jpg format when I hit the OPEN IMAGE button? Or, is this an "improvement" with RAW 6.3? Also, I seem to be having trouble adding a drop shadow (or any other effects) on jpeg pics. At least it doesn't show up on the screen after I apply it. I just recently updated to Camera RAW 6.3 and updated my Operating system on my iMac computer to OS 10.6.6. I emailed this request to my good friend with an identical setup on his iMac and he is having the same response when performing the above operations. Any ideas what the problem might be?

    Okay, previously you seem to have been using the bridge version of camera raw to edit your raw photos. That has many more options than the PSE version of the raw converter. (If you still have PSE 8, you can see the difference by using File>Open in the editor to open a raw photo for the PSE version of ACR, which works the same way in PSE 9.) In PSE's raw converter, you use the Open button, then save your photo in an image format in the editor. The Save button in ACR in PSE is only the DNG converter.
    Layer styles should work exactly the same way as in PSE 8. However, in any version of PSE a drop shadow, like a real shadow, needs someplace to fall, so unless there is empty space on the layer, it won't appear. Try creating text or drawing and simplifying a shape and adding a drop shadow. Does it appear then?
    Also remember that Jpegs won't let you save either layers or transparency when you resave the file.

  • How do I get camera raw page open

    How do I get the page to open in Elements 10 that has the histogram and sliders for contrast, exposure, etc?  I can't find it anywhere.  All I can get to open is the edit page that shows apples

    Ok, Actually, I saw on a video on Elements 11, there were sliders that you could adjust contrast, temperature, all that and a histogram at the top.  Somebody told me it was in camera raw not elements editor.  I'm frustrated because as I had said earlier in my elements 10, editor, there's all these green apples (filters, like blur,etc).  I need to be able to adjust the contrast and all that before it gets to editor.  So actually, I'm looking for those sliders.  I'm new and aggravated and ready to throw this out!  But, I'm still trying!  Thanks
