Can't Download RAW images

After I got back from Africa, I downloaded all my RAW files into my Toshiba Satellite laptop and got them cropped and organized. Then I spilled about half a pint of apple juice on the keyboard which killed the hard drive. Had it replaced by the Geek Squad. Toshiba does not supply recovery disks with new laptops so I had to order them from their USA affiliate.
Geek Squad used the disks and now, as you can see, my laptop is once again functional. Or almost.  The recovered machine will not accept RAW files. It directed me to two sites: 1) a commercial site where a patch was sold for $29.95.  2) the Canon site where the software was free. Tried the free Canon software which did not help.  Then I downloaded the disk that came with the camera.  All to no avail.
Other than suicide, you got any suggestions? guidance? enlightenment?
 many thanks, cyber-ignorant Bill

Not sure what you mean about downloading RAW files.  I have been doing Digital Photgraphy for about 12 years and use RAW files from many differnt Camera brands.  The RAW data from the diffent brands is all a bit different.  I use about 6 different graphics programs.  Not all of these programs read all RAW file formats.  You most likely have a file association issue.  If you have any graphic files on your computer (Tiff, JPEG, GIF, PNG, etc) and install a new graphics editor program, file accociations will generally default to open in the new program.  In most cases this is not a problem.  It can be a problem opening "Brand Specific" RAW files in the new program.
The best way to fix this is to navigate to the location where you store your RAW files (from the same camera) on your system and double click one of the files and see what program opens the file for viewing.  If this works for you, then navigate to the camera media card (plug in the camera or plug the card into a card reader slot on your computer, printer, card reader) and do not allow the transfer of the files. Right click one of the files on the card, click properties, change the file association to the program that opened the files on your computer.
Another way to do this is to open "My Computer" or "Computer" on Win 7  systems,  find your camera folder (it will generally look like a hard drive.  Open and navigate to the folder where the files are stored.  Drag and Drop to your Desktop.  Open the folder on your desktop, right click a file and change your file associations as stated above.

  • Can't download RAW images and see them

    I'm using Bridge 3.  When I download RAW images, all I get is the same amount of thumbnails that say CR2 (on a blue banner) on a page with a gray lens.  What's happening?

    They're all blue with a flower motif.  Does this
    information help narrow down the possibilities any?
    It still indicates you have not the right ACR plug in for the file type of
    Raw you are using or your install of ACR plug in is fault.
    In PS check in menu Photoshop / about plug ins / Camera Raw. Inhere should
    be only one version visible and it should say 4.6 in your case if you have
    installed that plug in correctly.
    If this is correct check if your camera that produced the Raw files is
    listed in the supported dSLR for that version. Check this link and if it
    does not work for you (many links are country specific on the Adobe site) do
    a Google search on:  " supported raw files for ACR 4.6"
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4033
    If that camera is not in the list find the latest DNG converter (version
    6.1, it is in the list on the Adobe site / support / updates and search for
    DNG)
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106&platform=Maci
    ntosh
    Use this converter to convert your files to DNG and try again.

  • Can I download raw images from my Panasonic Lumix DMC - FZ45 to my iMac using Aperture3 ?

    I want to start using Aperture3 as long as I can handle Raw images from my Panasonic DMC-FZ45 with it but that camera is not on the list - will it work?

    If the camera is not on the list then Aperture will not be able to handle the RAW images from the camera.
    It's surprising as this is a relatively old camera, so if it's not in Aperture by now I would  tend to think it won't be included. You could download the trial version and see what happens just to make sure.
    One other thing, you could convert the RAW images to DNG using the Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter for Macintosh and then import those.

  • Just purchased Elements12, can't download Raw images from SD card from new Panasonic Lumix DMC-Gx7. CF card from Canon 5D works fine. I understand I have to upgrade camera raw, does anyone know how to do this and where to fine it. Please and thank you..

    Can you please tell us which operating system you are running on and details of the camera producing the raw images (Make & Model).
    Each different camera model has it's own unique format of the raw file and so the camera raw has to be updated occasionally. Gives us the details above and we can help you further.
    I'm new with windows 8 and brand new computer

    FWIW, my Help/Updates does not work. My ACR is 8.0 and each time that ACR has been updated during the last year I have tried to update it through Help/Updates and each time I have received in the Application Manager window that opens the text, "Your applications are all up to date." I suppose it is possible that the fact that I have an updated copy of LIghtroom (5.6) is confusing the Application Manager.
    Because I do all my Raw processing in LR it does not really bother me that the PSE 12 ACR plugin does not update.

  • Can't open RAW images in Photoshop

    I purchased a new computer. It runs 64 bits. I have CS4. Since uploading it to my computer, I can not open RAW images. I have downloaded the most recent updates.
    I have been using the 32 bit photoshop because I could not get my NIK filters to work in 64 bit. But I can't open any of my RAW images.  I can't open them in either 32 or 64 bit.
    I have version 5.0.0.178 of Camera Raw.  I only know this because I can see it under "About filer.... Camera Raw".  I cant find any camera raw filters in adobe/plug-ins in either version of photoshop. I have a huge photoshoot tomorrow. I NEED to open RAW images.  HELP!!  Regular Support is down for the next few days.

    If you look at this list: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html
    You will see you need Adobe Camera Raw 4.6 or later.
    As Chris says, update either maually from here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4681
    Or use the Updater from PS help.

  • Can't Import RAW images on new Mac with Lion

    Ever since buying an iMac in the summer with Lion installed, I haven't been able to download RAW images from my Canon 40D, either to iPhoto or Lightroom. My work-around has been to download to my iPad and then download from the iPad to the iMac, which has worked everytime except tonight for some reason... hence why I'm finally posting this. I can still download with out any problems to my Macbook with Leopard. I've found other posts with similar issues but no good solutions other then people switching back to jpeg... which really isn't an option. Any suggestions?

    When I look into the System Library
    /System/Library/CoreServices/RawCamera.bundle, I see the file has a date June,17,2011
    Do you have the same RawCameraBundle?

    How can I process Raw Images taken with a Nikon D7000 in PSE Extended?

    Hi there
    Unfortunately, CS4 does not support the Nikon D7000. You'll have to download the Adobe DNG converter (links below) to process RAW files from your camera.
    DNG converter 6.3 - Mac
    DNG converter 6.3 - Windows

  • Can i download the images used in the adobe PSH 13 manual that accompanied the CD's

    Can I download the images contained in the PSE 13 electronic manual

    Thank you. I already figured it out by searching the whole internet
    But there's a thing bugging me. I want to delete the log file in which all paths are stored because everytime I run the plugin I get duplicates of the paths.
    So I thought of removing the existing log file before every time I use the plugin.
    I tried LrTasks.execute("del %HOMEPATH%\\Documents\\photosPath.log"). But nothing happens. When I use my personal path then it works pretty well. But I want it to work on any computer....

    I've up graded my Canon 5D Mk1 to a Mk3.  now I can't download RAW files as veiwable thumbnails via CS4 Photodownloader only as 'tiles'.  I can still double click these tiles and open in PS elements and edit OK.  But they remain as tiles after editing although the resulting Jpeg can be seen as thumbnail in folder although needs purging first.  Please help.

    Can I download tutorial images for Adobe Photoshop Elements 2 online?

    I'm not sure which images your referring to, unless you mean the ones referenced in the pse 2 help under Photoshop Elements 2.0 Tutorials
    (or some that may have been available thru the pse 2 updater)
    In the folder that photoshop elements 2 installs into, there are some Samples and Tutorial folders with some of those files.
    On a windows machine look in either
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 2
    or
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 2
    Also, on the pse 2 install cd, there are some images in the Goodies>Stock Art folder
