Can't open NEF files from my D3S in CS4

I just bought a Nikon D3S and cannot open raw files in CS4.
I would appreciate any and all help with this issue.
Thanks,
David

Have you installed the latest Camera Raw update?
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4680
New camera models are added to Camera Raw from time to time, and the Camera Raw 5.x series goes with Photoshop CS4.
The list of supported cameras for the very latest CS5 Camera Raw 6.x plugin is here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/cameraraw.html
The equivalent list for 5.x is in the ReadMe pdf file for installation.  I believe your D3s camera is supported by 5.7.
At some point it may be that Adobe ceases to make the older versions of Camera Raw suppoort new cameras, at which point you'll either have to do an additional conversion to .dng then open with the older Camera Raw, or update to the latest version of Photoshop.
Hope this helps clear things up for you.

  • Can't open NEF files from Nikon D90 in CS4.

    I had to uninstall and reinstall PS CS4, now I am unable to open my NEF files. I've used CS4 for years and always been able to open NEF files. Any idea what is going on? Any suggestion? I'm computer illiterate so please keep any answers as simple as possible. Thanks

    So your Camera Raw is not up-to-date.
    The Nikon D90 was first supported in Camera Raw 5.1
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    and CS4 is compatible with Camera Raw up to version 5.7
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
    If Help > Updates in CS4 still says you're up-to-date then try installing Camera Raw 5.7 manually

  • Can't open NEF files from my Nikon D800

    I am running Mac OX 10.6.8, Photoshop 13.6.1 x64, Camera Raw 7.1.0354 and Lightroom 4.4.
    Now Camera Raw and Lightroom won’t open raw files from my Nikon D800. Why is this!??!?
    My iMac is model year 2006 and can't be upgraded to Mavericks (thank you Apple!)

    1.— First, be glad your machine can't run the extremely buggy Mavericks OS. 
    2.—Did you mean Photoshop 13.0.6 ?  There's no such thing as Photoshop 13.6.anything.
    3.— The current version of ACR is ACR 8.4.  You should ALWAYS update to the latest version.  Once a camera model is supported, it will be supported in all subsequent releases of ACR.
    Beside new camera support, each ACR update contains any number of unannounced, unheralded bug fixes, improvements and enhancements.

  • Can't open NEF-files from D700

    After installing Mountain Lion and Lightroom 4 i can't import my images from my Nikon D700. Not with LR or with PS. OSX and Creative cloud is updated.

    Will be a permission issue with the location you are trying to import to most likely.

  • Have CS 5 Installed on my iMac and works ok. But installed on my new MacBook Pro it won't open NEF files from my Nikon D810. Displays NEF icons, but when I try and open them the response is: Make sure latest RAW updates are installed. If problem persists

    Have CS 5 Installed on my iMac and works ok. But installed on my new MacBook Pro it won't open NEF files from my Nikon D810. Displays NEF icons, but when I try and open them the response is: Make sure latest RAW updates are installed. If problem persists follow link: http://www.adobe.com/go/kb407111. Have installed Bridge 5.0.2.4; Raw Ref Version 7.0.0.308; DNG converter_8_7_1.dmg; Bridge 5.0.2 Update 2. Also same problem with Lightroom which I don't normally use. Lightroom_3_LS11_mac_3_6.dmg installed.

    In the link you posted it states that the Nikon 810 requires ACR 8.6 or newer.
    Version of ACR are specific to versions of Photoshop. You cannot use 8.6 nor even 7.0.in CS5.
    I believe that ACR 6.7 is the latest that will work with CS5, so make sure you have this installed and get rid of ACR 7.
    Having 2 versions of ACR will cause problems.
    You have already downloaded DNG Converter 8.7.1.
    Have you double clicked the DMG file to allow you to install DNG Converter on your computer?
    Be aware that DNG converter is a stand-along application and not a plug-in.
    You need to open DNG converter at select the FOLDER that contain your .NEF files.
    Don't open the folder and try to select individual files, it doesn't work that way.
    After converting your D810 files to DNGs you can then open the DNGs in CS5
    The problem is your camera didn't exist when CS5 & its version of ACR was developed.
    i don't use Lightroom, but the list mentions Lightroom 5.6 as needed to open D819 so your 3.6 version of LR won't cut it.

    For the D600 NEF's you have two alternatives: (1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)  Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.3  Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.3  You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click.

  • Can't open raw files from a supported camera

    Hi.  I just uninstalled pse 12, installed pse 13 and ran all updates.  I still can't open raw files from my Nikon D5200, which is a supported model.  It works on a Vista system I have with pse 12, so it definitely isn't the camera.  Any ideas?

    The D5200 has been supported since midway through PSE11’s life, so PSE12 and PSE13 should work ok.
    I’d suspect that the NEFs have been touched by Nikon software which can rendering them unrecognizable to Adobe products.  You can test for this by using Explorer to copy a newly shot raw file from your memory card to the computer and then see if that will open, making sure no Nikon software has viewed it or been involved in the copy process.
    If the files are corrupted, then a utility from here can reverse it:

  • Major problem: I can not export NEF files from Lightroom

    This is just plain weird: I can't export NEF files from Lightroom 2. I can export any other file format, but not NEF. With Lightroom 1 this was no problem.
    It makes no difference whether I choose the export command with my mouse, via the menu or with a key stroke - nothing happens.
    Lightroom version 2.0
    Camera Raw version 4.5.0.175
    Camera Nikon D3
    Photoshop CS3 version 10.0.1
    MacOsX version 10.5.4
    I've called Adobe, and they simply don't know. I have reinstalled Lightroom 2 with no succes. Restarting, repairing permissions, nothing helps.
    Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
    Marsel

    Marsel, your language is confusing, First, you cannot 'export' NEFs to PS. You can send a copy there from within LR as a tif or psd.
    Exporting per se takes place through the Library module under the Export function. When Nef's are exported by choosing 'original' in the export dialogue, the file is the 'original' NEF accompanied by an XMP. That Nef, if opened directly in PS from your file system should appear in the Camera Raw window, where you can make whatever new edits on it you want or change the original adjustments you made in LR. Then, once you open that file in PS from the Camera Raw window, any further work you do will be pixel editing. That work can then be saved in a number of formats, but not as a NEF.
    Transferring files to PS from LR for editing is another matter. That sends a copy of the original NEF, including LR adjustments to PS as either a Tiff or a PSD (your choice via the dropdown). After you have edited that Tiff or PSD in PS and hit save, it will send a copy back to LR as a Tiff or PSD, which will appear next to the original nef.
    These procedures work perfectly on both my windows 32 and 64 bit machines with LR2 and 2.1. with all my NEFs from several camera models.
    When you say 'export' do you really mean sending a copy to PS or do you mean 'Export' as LR defines that term?

  • Opening NEF file from Nikon D7100 i Photoshop Elements 11, problem.

    How do I update Adobe Bridge CS4 so that I can view NEF files?
    Unfortunately, you don't. Bridge can never be updated again once a new version of Creative Suite comes out, so bridge CS4 can't be updated past where it was back when CS5 came out. There is no way to make bridge CS4 see the raw files for the D7100, I'm afraid.

  • I can't open pages files from USB and iCloud due to : "The necessary file index.xml is missing".

    I can't open pages files from USB and iCloud due to : "The necessary file index.xml is missing". Original file is written on iMac (2014) and saved to an USB stick and then transferred till macBook Pro (2009, Yosemite) for editing. Then I shared the files by iCloud but I am not able to open them on iMac again. Niether can I use the USB stick to transfer the edited files back. I'm running Pages '09 4,1 (923) on the macBook and Pges 5.5.2 (2120) on the iMac.
    Håkan

    Pages 5.5.2 is extremely incompatible with even other Macs let alone the vast majority of PC and MsWord users out there, so not a good idea to leap into the fire with both eyes shut.
    After having done that to the first Pages 5 files, Apple has repeatedly done it to even the most minor point updates. Apple can't even anticipate its own erratic changes let alone what everyone else needs doing.

  • How can I open raw files from my Nikon D7100 in CS4 or CS5?

    How can I open raw files from my Nikon D7100 in CS4 or CS5?

    Andy,
    In the simple and short form, what happens with the ACR (Adobe Camera RAW) module is that it gets updated with regularity, to accommodate the camera mfgr's. changes for their newer models. That ACR works within the host program, such as Ps, PsElements, Lightroom, etc.. At a point, Adobe ceases to support older host program versions. When that happens, the user has a few options:
    Upgrade the host program version
    Use another host program, such as PsElements or Lightroom
    Use the free DNG converter, per Curt's suggestion. That is not host program dependent
    Glad that the DNG Converter works for you.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Can't open PDF files from Windows Explorer on Windows 8.1

    Hello,
    after I've upgraded to Windows 8.1, I can't open PDF files from Windows Explorer (directly double clicking the file). The AcroRd32.exe runs in the background (2x !) as I see the processes in task manager, but there is no user interface visible. I have Acrobat
    Reader 11.0.06, the desktop version (not Metro). I tried uninstalling the Acrobat reader and installing it again but this didn't help. The only way to open PDF files is to close the AcroRd32.exe from the task manager, open empty Acrobat Reader from the desktop
    and then drag&drop the PDF file over that window. This is quite inconvenient. Is there a way to fix this issue so I can open PDF files directly from windows explorer?
    Many thanks!

    I had to install adobe reader, but   PDF's used to display just fine with IE, any idea what happened ?
    Windows 8.1 pro.
    thx

  • I'm going back to cs4 after using cs6 and I can't open nef files in camera raw.

    I'm going back to cs4 after using cs6 and I can't open nef files in camera raw.

    Each camera needs a specific camera raw version (ACR).  And each ACR is tied to a specific version of PS.  See this list http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html

  • Can not open RAW-Files from Nikon D4 in Photoshop cc

    hi. i can not open RAW-Files from Nikon D4 in Photoshop cc. (Camera RAW 6.7) can you help please?

    ACR 6.7 would be for an older product, PS-CS5 or PSE10 or PRE10.
    What does Help / About Plug-ins… / Camera Raw… show in PS-CC for a version for ACR and is there more than one version of ACR in the Help / About Plug-in list.  Help / About Plug-in is what I’d do on Windows; I’m not sure if the menu path is the same on a Mac or not.
