Can't go from Bridge/Camera Raw to Photoshop Elements 8

I originally installed trial version of photoshop CS4 and photoshop elements 8. I decided I liked elements better so that is what I purchased. I did fresh install off of purchased disk. I can launch bridge from within PSE8, then camera raw from Bridge, but can't Open into PSE8 from bridge or camera raw. I can open camera raw but when I finish and click "open" the file always tries to open into Photoshop CS4 (for which the trial is now expired).
I have updated to camera raw 5.7 and followed the instructions on the adobe site. I can tell the camera raw plug in is running from the CS4 library Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats (deleted it there and it no longer worked) and not from Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-ins\Elements 8\File Formats.
Any suggestions on how to get my PSE8 to play nice with bridge and camera raw and run the camera raw plug in from my PSE8 file formats instead of CS4\file formats?

Yes I am using an Imac with snow leopard. Thank you for your help! I changed every file association I could in the bridge file associations from PS CS4 to Photoshop Elements.
Changing the file type association took care of the problem in bridge for .dng files as long as I open the dng file from bridge to photoshop elements (brings up camera raw which when click done returns me to elements).
The panasonic file association in bridge is .raw but my raw camera files are .rw2. Can't find that one in the associations of bridge. The fortunate thing is they do open from finder into preview (if that helps at all).
I can now work around this by changing them to .dng files, but that is kind of bulky.
Thanks again for your assistance.

Adjustment Brush Tool or Graduated Filter Tool in Camera Raw for Photoshop Elements 12?

Is there an Adjustment Tool or Graduated Filter Tool in Camera Raw for Photoshop Elements 12?

Those are Lightroom tools for those who don't want to use a regular pixel editor like Photoshop or Elements which have much more powerful tools to do that.
The idea with the reduced set of feature in the ACR version of Elements is that features available in Elements are not necessary in ACR. You need to use the Elements editor more frequently than if you are working with Lightroom.

Camera Raw in Photoshop Elements 12

Hello,
I read on chip.de that camera raw is freeware if you use a Adobe product. But the camera raw version in my photoshop elements 12 has only very few possibilities compared to the complete version. And there is also no update higher than 8.5. Is that correct?
So I need to buy Lightroom to have the full function of camera raw? Photoshop is to expensive for me as a hobby photographer.
Greetings, Nina

The type of Raw File used in my Canon 7D MKll is not supported in Bridge, Camera Raw or Photoshop 5S. How can I fix this?

The type of Raw File used in my Canon 7D MKll is not supported in Camera Raw, Adobe Bridge or Photoshop 5S. How do I fix this?

I gather you are using Photoshop CS5? The most recent Camera Raw version that CS5 will accept is ACR 6.7. Support for the Canon 7D Mark II was added in ACR 8.7.1. You will have to use the DNG converter to covert your CR2 files to the universal DNG raw format. Here are the links for the DNG converter:

How to bring up camera raw in photoshop elements 13

How to use camera raw in photo shop elements 13. I see it's not available like in Photoshop cc. What to do?

It would be best to ask here:
Photoshop Elements

How do I prevent all my photos from my camera going to Photoshop Elements 10? I only want them to first go to my computer.

??

Hi,
Since you are new to Photoshop Elements I think that you would benefit from learning more about tags and albums.
In your case you could allow the new images to be imported into the organizer, add tags to all the images and then filter the view to see only the ones you want to see, There is not much of a overhead to a photo being imported into the organizer. As I said before, a copy of the photo is not saved within the organizer, just a link to. The only extra information stored is the link saved in the database.
One word of warning. If you have imported an image into the organizer, do NOT delete, move or rename the photo by any other application. Others often ignore this rule and end up with missing files.
If you need further help, then ask away.
Good luck, enjoy
Brian

Videos from camera do Adobe Photoshop Elements 9

I brought my pics/videos over to my computer from my camera using Adobe Photoshop Elements 9, and when I did this, I told the program to delete the pics/videos. I've gone back through all of my pics and videos, and there is one very important video missing. Can anyone tell me where it would've gone? Since I had it delete off my camera, it's not there anymore, but I can't find it in Photoshop Elements either.
Holy cow, it took me about half a dozen tries to even get to this spot where I can post this question!

Yes, use the Editor
File >> Import

Can't open NEF with Camera Raw from Bridge

I recently updated to CS6 and got a new Nikon D600. Downloaded the lastest DNG converter but when I pull up files in Bridge I can't open them with Camera Raw anymore. My process was to open in Bridge. Select the NEF files I wanted then click mouse+control, which gave me a menu to open in Camera Raw. Now my only option is Photoshop CS6. I downloaded the trial for Photoshop CC and Bridge CC but still can't select to open with Camera Raw.
What is going on? I have never had issues like I have been. HELP Please.

From your description it sounds as if Camera Raw isn't installed, or is installed incorrectly. In Photoshop go to Help/about plug-ins/Camera Raw and verify that you have it installed correctly. Since you are on a Mac, I cannot advise as to where it should be installed.
The other thing I have been thinking about in your situation is, how were these images downloaded from your camera?if you used an older version of Nikon Transfer it can alter the files so that they cannot be opened in Camera Raw.
Do you have other software like ViewNX2 or CaptureNX2, and will those programs open your files?

Can't select 'open in camera raw...' in Bridge

I have CS3 and I just recently updated my camera raw plug-in to 4.2. Updates have allowed me to see my CR2 files (instead of an icon) ; which was a problem before. But now I can't select the 'open in camera raw...' function in Bridge. The function is still listed in my 'file' menu, however it's grayed out and cannot be selected. I'm hoping this has something to do with a setting, or at least an easy fix. Any help or guidance on this would be extremely helpful! Thanks!

Camera Raw 4.2? The current version is 4.6.
If you can't access the Camera Raw command from Bridge with raw files, the odds are you didn't install it correctly...since you don't bother to state your OS, we can't really help you with WHERE to place Camera Raw (and only ONE version of Camera Raw) but you should go back and double check it's in the correct place for your OS.

How can I update Camera raw for Photoshop CS5 to access images from Canon Rebel T4i?

How can I update Camera Raw for Photoshop CS5 to access images from Canon Rebel T4i? The updated version of Camera Raw 7 says it only works with CS6. Outside of buying a new Photoshop, is there anything I can do?

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.

Corrupted RAW in Bridge CC, Camera RAW and Photoshop CC

Hello,
I am using up to date versions of Bridge CC, Camera RAW nad Photoshop CC and I have the following problem.
- after transfer photos from Canon EOS 6D to computer thumbnails in Bridge seems to be fine
- when I open file in Camera RAW file seem as below example
- when I open file in Photoshop CC file seem as below example
- when I open RAW in IrfanView image seems to be fine
- I can open image in IrfanView, save as TIFF and in Bridge and Photoshop seems to be fine
- the problem occurs randomly, about 5% of images from 500 images
Do you have similar problem? Does anybody have any idea?

The previews are ok in Bridge because it's just a preview jpg, not the actual RAW file. I'm not sure why it would open OK in Irfanview. I had a similar problem after a HDD crash and tried Irfanview with no more luck than any of the Adobe programs.
Have you tried Adobe's DNG converter to see if you get the same result? Is this a consistent problem, or just this one time?

Can't open Tiff in Camera Raw CC

I have checked the Camera Raw preferences to open jpgs and tiffs in Camera Raw. I have the Bride CC preferences set to Bridge CC for jpgs and tiffs.
I c n open jpgs in Camera Raw, but I can't open tiffs in Camera Raw. I must be doing something wrong.
The settings for jpgs and tiffs in Windows file association are identical.
The settings for jpgs and tiffs in Bridge preferences are identical.
Yet, I can open jpgs in Camera Raw, and I can't open tiffs in Camera Raw.
Any suggestions?
Lynnea

Can you, from within Photoshop, choose File - Open As, then choose the TIFF file, and set the selector over on the right to Camera Raw?
I know that you'd really like to set up to open them automatically through Camera Raw, but this could serve as a workaround.

RAW images in Lightroom aren't opening in camera raw in Photoshop. Instead, I have to open the image in Finder before it will open in Camera Raw in Photoshop. How can I correct that?

RAW images in Lightroom aren't opening in camera raw in Photoshop. Instead, I have to open the image in Finder before it will open in Camera Raw in Photoshop. How can I correct that?

Your question is a little unclear. In a "normal" Lightroom/Photoshop workflow the raw images do not open from Lightroom into Camera Raw. Lightroom has all of the Camera Raw functionality in the develop module. When you choose to open an image in Photoshop, and Lightroom and Photoshop are synchronized (i.e. referencing the same version of Camera Raw) then Camera Raw is simply used to interpret the Lightroom adjustments as the image is transferred to Photoshop. If Camera Raw is an older version then Lightroom offers you the choice to open the image or create a PSD or TIF file that includes all of the Lightroom adjustments. But in either case, opening in Camera Raw is not part of the workflow. It is possible to open the image as a smart object or convert the image to the smart object in Photoshop and then open it in Camera Raw. That is done from within Photoshop or is one of the open options in Lightroom. If you choose to go the smart object route the image first has to be opened in Photoshop and then from there you can open it in Camera Raw.

New Camera RAW in Photoshop CC 2014 won't open multiple Panasonic RAW (.rw2) at the same time from Windows Explorer.

New Camera RAW in Photoshop CC 2014 won't open multiple Panasonic RAW (.rw2) at the same time from Windows Explorer. If I select 2 raw files and click "Open" Camera RAW will only open 1 raw, then when I click "Done" it will close and open the second, sequentially. Previous Photoshop CC and RAW worked fine, it would open mulitple RAW at the same time. How do I fix this?

If it worked for you that way previously there isn't much to comment about. I just tried opening multiple images from Windows Explorer with Photoshop CS6 and Camera Raw 8.6, and the first image would open and when I clicked cancel then the second image would open. But if I wanted multiple images opened in Camera Raw to work on them simultaneously it was necessary for me to open them from Bridge. I just did it as an experiment because I normally use Lightroom. Anyway, IF it was a feature at one time to work as you described, it doesn't seem to be that way now.
