Can't open raw files in Adobe Bridge CS4

First of all, I use a macbook pro that runs on Leopard.  My camera is 5d Mark ii.  I have photoshop elements 8 for mac, but I love to use Adobe Bridge CS4 for basic editing.  Here is my problem, it won't let me open raw mode to edit.  I have tried the updates photoshop gives on their site, but no luck.  I still can't open them.  Please help me!

If you just go to Help>Updates, Bridge should take care of this for you, unless you've managed to get multiple copies of the plug-in into the folder. If you manually installed things, check to see that there is only one plug-in there, then let Bridge do it for you.

  • Can't open NEF files in Adobe Bridge CS4

    My camera is a Nikon D90 and I downloaded the Camera Raw.plugin Version 5.2. to open NEF files in Photoshop and Bridge from the CS4 collection. It works perfectly to open NEF files in Photohop but Bridge is not able to show the files. I cleared the cache already.
    Does anybody know, what the problem could be?
    Thanks for your help!

    Maybe the plugin is in the wrong folder? It should be in the Common Files/Adobe folder tree, rather than the Adobe/Photoshop CS4 folder tree (where only Photoshop can see it). Also, make sure there's only one Camera Raw.8bi installed.

  • Can't view raw files in Adobe Bridge CS4

    Hi,
    I bought a new iMac OS X version 10.8.5 . I have a Canon 5d Mark ii and I shoot in RAW. I installed CS4.. I also downloaded the newest version of the camera raw plug-in (5.7). I placed the plug-in in applications--> adobe photoshop CS4 -->plug-ins--> file formats.
    In Bridge, I can only view the grey thumbnail that says CR2. I can click on it and it'll open up into camera raw where I can edit some and then open it into photoshop. I want to be able to view the images in bridge to know which ones I want to open up in camera raw. Also, when I right click on the thumbnail there isn't an option that says "open in camera raw".
    Should I also place the camera raw plug-in in the applications-->Adobe Bridge-->plug-ins?
    When I click on about plug-ins on photoshop, it's showing me 2 camera raw plug-ins.. version 5.0 and version 5.7. I can't find 5.0 to delete?
    Thanks

  • Can't open raw files in 32 bit CS4

    Am using Vista 64 bit OS and because I recently purchased Nik Software's Complete Ed was necessary to change from initial set up of PS CS4 64 bit to 32 for their usage compatability. Had Camera Raw 5.0 on 64 bit version, copied camera raw 8bi plug in file format and placed in correct file format folder for the 32 bit version of PS. ...sounds easy enough...but when I attempt to open a raw file in PS or bridge it will not open and get message - Could not complete your request because of a program error.  Camera raw does show up and only once under the About Plug In submenu. Have tried Purge Cache option. Can still open raw files as always in 64 bit version, save and reopen 32bit version to continue but hoping for solution to eleminate that hassle. Thanks for your needed advice!  

    Plugin's have to be rewritten for a 64-bit environment so copying the 64-bit ACR to the 32-bit folder won't work.  You need the 32-bit version of ACR in the 32-bit CS4 folder.
    I'm not sure if the ACR 5.6 updater will work to update both versions, or if you need to download and install the plugin's manually. 
    You can get to the manual install ZIP by following the PSE link near the top of the regular ACR 5.6 page linked on the updates page:

  • I can't open *.indd files in Adobe InDesign CS4

    I've just installed the trial version of Adobe Indesign CS4 and I cannot open my *.indd files which contain my business brochures etc.
    How can they be opened?
    Operating system:  Windows XP pro SP3.
    Processor: Intel E8400, Gigabyte P35 Chipset with 4Gb RAM.
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi, I've tried double clicking as one would normally do and I get the error message:
    Cannot open "filename.indd"
    The files were created in Adobe InDesign by a company that specialises in brochure design and they kindly gave me the files they originally created (to be printed by a professional printer) so that I could make some minor modifications (for the next run from the professional printer), using my trial copy of Adobe InDesign.
    I know that this company uses a Mac operating system but I don't know which version of InDesign they use. I shall ask them if this is relevant (which I guess it will be!).

    Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen!
    My question concerns the impossibility to open RAW-files directly from the program Adobe Bridge. At the moment when you open a RAW-file from Adobe Bridge by double-clicking, RAW-file is opened only in Photoshop. In the settings Adobe Bridge - in "open RAW-files by double-clicking in Adobe Camera Raw» box is checked. When you try any changes in the settings Adobe Bridge system displays a message:
    Bridge's parent application is not active. Bridge requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature.
    The entire line of Adobe products on my computer updated to the latest updates. Previously, a family of products Adobe Photoshop on your computer is not set. Computer - PC, Windows 7 Enterprises.

  • Can't see CR2 files in Adobe Bridge CS6

    I have recently purchased Canon 5D Mark iii and have taken a few shots in RAW mode. When I try to open the file in Adobe Bridge CS6, I can't view the file.
    I also have a canon T2i and the raw file from that camera show perfectly fine.
    What could be the problem? All my CS6 software is up to date.

    Updated to ACR 8.4? There is an issue:
    The fix is to download a 8.4 again via the link below and follow the instructions to replace the existing 8.4 plugin:

  • 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

  • Help! Can't open Raw files in lightroom 2!

    I have been editing my raw files in Adobe bridge but I just purchased  Lightroom 2 and would like to start to use it but I can't! I go to import my raw files and by they end, it says my files were not the right type or corrupted but I can see them in Bridge. Does anyone know if there is a plugin or something for lightroom 2  that I'm obviously missing to fix this? THANKS so much to however has the answer.

    Glad you solved it for yourself. Sometimes hitting it also helps
    Might it be that they were sRAW or mRAW, and now you're importing full size RAWs?

  • Can I open raw files using photoshop elements

    Can I open raw files using photoshop elements

    Yes, depending on the Camera Model and version of PSE.
    All camera makers like to make slight changes to the RAW format for their new models. Adobe then take a few months to produce a camera RAW plug-in to process the new format.
    Give you PSE version and camera model and we could be more help.
