Can't turn launch in camera raw off, part 2

My problem was I wanted to batch process jpgs but they kept opening in ACR. Thanks to all for your suggestions. I ended up uninstalling and reinstalling PS and Bridge. Still I got the same results. I think that if the jpg has been processed in ACR, it will ALWAYS open in ACR, even when the preferences are set to OFF for auto open in ACR. To batch process them, they will have to be saved-as.
Is this the best work-around?

What I do is use
b Dr. Brown's 1-2-3 Processor
from the Tools menu in Bridge
Tools > Dr. Brown's Services 1.9.4 > Dr. Brown's 1-2-3 Processor

Can't turn launch in camera raw off

I use ACR to process many images, both RAW and JPGs and have the PS3 preferences set to open in ACR automatically. I want to turn off the option to batch process files, but unchecking the preference and trashing some preference files has not worked. Please help. Thanks. Jim K

If turning off all three options and restart as stated in the previous post does not work try the hard way.
Delete the cachefile from Bridge manually from the user lib - caches - adobe - Bridge CS3 - Cache (this one can be deleted, it builds a new (but empty) one after restart.
delete also in the user lib preferences the com.adobe.bridge2.plist file and restart holding down option shift command key combination and choose reset preferences.
This gives you a fresh start in Bridge, go to the prefs and disable the jpg and tiff settings and set prefs to what you desire. You have to rebuild every single folder that you have cached before that's why I call it the hard way... :-(

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?

I have downloaded DNG Profile Editor 1_0_4 and prepared a profile which I can not see in my Camera Raw 6.0 (I have photoshop CS5). Could you please give me an advice?

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.

Can photoshop convert .jpg to camera raw file?

Can photoshop convert .jpg to camera raw file?

And even if you could, it wouldn't be worth it. Raw files are 12-bit (or more) with much higher dymanic range than jpegs. The result is that (in the original raw file) you have flexibility to change white balance, change tone curve, recover detail from highlights and shadows in ways you can't with 8-bit (usually lossy-compressed) data in jpegs. But having thrown that extra information away to create a jpeg, you can't get it back. It would technically be possible to convert that jpeg data into raw format, but you would gain nothing by doing so and end up with a file much larger than the jpeg. In fact if this theoretical conversion went the whole way to re-create a Bayer sensor array of data, you'd be throwing away resolution.

How can I update my Acrobat Camera Raw version 7.1 ?

How can I update my Acrobat Camera Raw version 7.1 when the Help Update window keeps telling me I am not an administrator, which I am as per OSX Accounts?

You should contact Adobe Support and/or post in the Adobe Forums since it's their product.

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.

How can I turn a personalised voice alert off?

As a joke, a work colleague has made my MacBook Air say a personalised message every minute (using the System voice).
How can I turn it off?
How can I get the #$%@ back?

Hi,
Most likely this is an AppleScript or Automator item that is listed in System Preferences > Users and Groups > Your account > Login items
This list can have things put in it by the system such and the iTunes Helper app.
Other than that you can add Apps you want to start up when the computer does or links to specific servers can be set up here.
TO do this you log on the the sever (other Mac or computer) in the normal way with the Name and password dialogue box.
Then you can Drag the icon for th Drive/Computer to the List and it will be added.
It will access that Computer's drive at start up without the need to re-do the Name and Password access info.
AppleScripts and Automator items can be saved as self contained items that then don't launch the app but run themselves.
They may or may not appear in the DOCK.
There may be other ways to achieve this but this is how I would do it.

Can't open files in Camera Raw while in Bridge CS6

05/30/2014
Believe this issue/problem happened after automatic update from Adobe (but can't be sure).
Have always uploaded files from camera into Bridge then do some editing by opening JPEG and RAW (NEF) files in Camera Raw from Bridge.
Now, "Open in Camera Raw" is greyed out and I am unable to find a way to open files with Camera Raw from inside Bridge CS6. This seemed to happen suddenly and without any new software or applications being added to computer. All other apps/software working well.
Have tried various fixes found on Adobe community discussions without success. Problem now ongoing for over a week +.
Am able to open files in Photoshop with no problem but want to be able to do some quick edits using Camera Raw opening files from Bridge CS6.
I'm using Bridge CS6 Version 5.0.2.4. (as part of Adobe Creative Suite 6). Updater states I have most current version of Bridge installed.
I'm using an iMac computer with Intel Core i7 processor
OS X 10.8.5
Have found others with this same or very similar problems on forums but either can't understand patches/directions or unable to complete instructions on my computer.
for example see: Camera RAW update issue with Bridge CS6
From that link/discussion, one finds this "solution":
After you update to Camera Raw 8.4, Bridge CS6 in Mac OS doesn't display image metadata or allow you to edit images in Camera Raw.
To the top
Manually install the Camera Raw 8.4 plug-in.
Exit Adobe Bridge.
Download the file below.
Locate and double-click the downloaded file to decompress it. The resulting file is Camera Raw.plugin.
Navigate to the Macintosh HD folder.
Open the Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS6/File Formats folder.
IMPORTANT: Navigate to the root Library folder on your hard disk, not the Library folder under your user folder.
Copy the Camera Raw.plugin from step 3 into the File Formats folder.
IMPORTANT: This new file overwrites the file already in this folder. It's important that only one Camera Raw.plugin file is in this folder.
Open Adobe Bridge.
Camera Raw.plugin.zip
Mac OS Camera Raw 8.4 plug-in for manual installation
However, when I try the above, I have these issues:
1. When I double click on the downloaded file, my computer opens PhotoShop and an error message is displayed that states "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." (I suspect this may mean my computer has automatically decompressed the file, but I am not certain of that).
2. Not completely certain I know how to "Navigate to the Macintosh HD folder" as suggested in step 4. above (OK, I'm new to Mac; long-time PC user….)
3. When I am in "Finder" and click on "GO" while holding down "Option" key, I find "Library". within that, I can find "Library/Application Support/Adobe" but there is no "Plug-Ins" folder within the "Adobe" subfolder.
4. Not sure how to tell if I am in the "root Library" on my hard disk vs. "Library under my user folder". (Again, new to Mac….)
I have NOT yet tried doing an "Uninstall" and then Re-installing the whole Adobe Creative Suite 6 and would like to avoid that if possible.
Would absolutely LOVE it if Adobe would simply push an update that would fix this problem or if someone would explain to me how I could restore the earlier version that worked perfectly for me.
Any help, suggestions (in very basic, simple terms that any idiot new to the world of Macintosh can understand) would be appreciated. Very frustrated with Adobe at the moment.
Mostly have liked the switch to Mac, but with this and my photo workflow coming to a screeching halt, having second thoughts. (But I suppose Adobe update for PC may cause problems as well.)
Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.

05/30/2014
Literally minutes after I posted the above, I figured this out myself and now I'm a happy camper and things are back to normal!
Here was my error/issue: as a new Mac user, I was not negotiating/finding files on my hard drive correctly.
In case there are others out there with this same issue (and as dense as I apparently am ):
Here is what I did that resulted in a fix:
First Steps:
1. Quit/close Bridge
2. As noted in post above, go to this link to download Camera Raw Plugin file:
Camera RAW update issue with Bridge CS6
Link to get to download is near end of instructions, but I will attempt to insert that link to download here:
Camera Raw.plugin.zip
3. Once file has been downloaded, find it by using "Finder" Click on "Finder" and look on list of options on left side of Finder window to find "Downloads". On my computer, when clicking on "Finder" these options appear in the list at the left:
All My Files
Airdrop
Applications
Desktop
Documents
Downloads
Movies
Music
Pictures
4. Download you just did should be at or near the top of your downloads list and should be named as "Camera Raw.plugin" and will be 83.5 MB in size
5. I right-clicked (two fingers on touchpad) to bring up drop down options and selected "Copy 'Camera Raw.plugin'" from that list to copy file.
Now, you have copied the plug in that will fix this issue. The second set of steps below will walk you through how to replace the file that is on your hard drive with this plug in file that you have copied.
Second set of steps (and this is where, as a new Mac user, I was confused initially)
1. Again, click on "Finder" on your Mac
2. On top of screen, find "GO" and click on that. (You should see "Finder" in the upper right corner of your screen, then "File, Edit, View, GO, Window, Help" Click on the GO
3. In drop down menu that appears, click on "Computer"
4. Then, double click on "Macintosh HD" to open your hard drive
5. Next, double click on "Library" folder to open that.
6. Next, click on "Application Support" folder to open that.
7. Then, double click on "Adobe" folder to open that.
8. Then, double click on "Plug Ins" folder to open that
9. Now, double click on "CS6" to open that folder.
10. Finally, double click on the "File Formats" folder that appears.
11. NOW, you should see this:
12. Right click (two finger press if using a touch pad) to open window with options. Select "Paste Item" by clicking on that option.
13. You will be prompted with an option to keep existing file OR replace the file. Choose "Replace" to past the new "Camera Raw.plugin" file to this folder.
Finally, if you now go back and open Bridge CS6, you should be good to go.
Hope that helps someone out there.
Hopefully future updates will from Adobe will be better.

Lost my Camera Raw presets after reloading CC. How can I get them back into the Camera Raw converter part?

Sorry can't take an image of the screen and post into here.
The section in Camera Raw conversion, where it has the Presets section, I have lost my presets.
Had a computer virus and had to reload everything.
Can somebody please tell me where I can put my presets into the Photoshop and Lightroom CC section
so that it will work?
Thanks

Your LR preset folder can be found using: Edit / Preferences / Presets / Show LR Presets Folder (and there is a Store Presets with Catalog checkbox that you might want to check or uncheck depending on what it was, before).
Your ACR presets are in a Settings folder next to the Cache folder as shown on this page:

Can't download the latest Camera Raw 5.3 in CS4

I've just upgraded from Elements 5.0 to CS4 (with RAW 5.0) and can only open Nikon D80 RAW files. I can't open Lumix LX3 RAW files. I tried to download the latest Camera RAW 5.3 by clicking in the Help Menu and choosing "Update". I get the message "the Installation process as encountered a problem". I then have a choice of choosing; "run update again", "stop installation", or "cancel". I'm also getting this error message with "Adobe Extension Manager CS4 2.1" update. I can't work out if there's a problem with the "Extension Manager", the RAW update, or the "Installation Manager" - if that's what it's called.
I looked in C:\program files\common files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats, and can see "Camera RAW.8bi. I'm sure that is the same name as the RAW Plug-In in Elements 5. Am I having this problem because Elements 5 is on the same Drive, or is there a problem with CS4? To add insult to inury, I have encountered a few other problems, listed below:-
I can't delete a layer by dragging it to the Bin. I have to right click on it and choose "delete layer"
When I make a Levels Adjustment Layer, there is no "OK" button to click on, to make the dialogue box disappear. That wouldn't matter too much, but I don't know how to "cancel" an amendment as I used to do, by pressing Alt key and clicking on "Cancel" to restore the changes. How do I do this in CS4?
I'd prefer all the Windows to Float, so I can move them around. I can't see how to make this a preference. I have to click on the "Window" menu and make the changes for every document. Otherwise, the picture fills the whole screen.
I made some brushes in Elements 5 - mainly a signature brush. How would Iike to copy this brush to CS4? I can see a "Brush Presets" folder, but not individual brushes in either package.
Lastly, I'd like to load CS4 on my laptop, if that's allowed. I don't often connect to the Internet with my laptop for security reasons. Do I need to be connected to load it onto the Laptop.
I bought CS4 from Adobe, and was hoping there wouldn't be a problem with the software. Upgrading from Elements 5 has been a cultural shock, so I hope I don't sound too "dim". I've watched lots of DVDs about CS3 and CS4, but still feel quite swamped with the new features.
I'd be grateful for any help with the above questions.

For floating windows, uncheck the relevant boxes in Edit > Preferences > Interface. And play with the Arrange documents drop-down in the top bar. Also see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405298.html
Save the brushes as an .abr file in a known location on your hard drive and load them from there into CS4.
You are allowed an extra installation on a laptop but you'll need an internet connection to activate it (or use the telphone number provided).

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.

What to do? Without Camera Raw update I can't open Raw files from my cameras. Guy from chat on adobe website just give me link for support website, it's ridiculous.

Hi,
Finally I made an update. I used download files from Adobe update pages (the same websites that were offline for few days), I couldn't do it automatically from PS CS5 application. Last problem is Adobe Extension update, can't do it automatically and manually becouse there are no update files for Adobe Extension CS5 for Windows (only for Mac). Most important is that my Camera Raw can open files from my cameras now. Thank You for your help.
Hey abdzi could you give a short explanation were you found which download files?? I have the same problem and realy need the Camera Raw update. Please!! Thank you

In Bridge, can't open jpeg in camera raw

I have CS3 installed on several computers. On one of them, apparently Bridge and/or Raw never updated to the ability to open a jpeg in Raw. I can do this on the other computers. When I suggest running updates, it says none are needed. I'm confused.
Mike

Jim,
Actually I'd only discovered this feature recently as Bridge was not program of choice - my 7 yr. old system didn't have resources to handle PS and Bridge well simultaneously, having only 512 MB RAM. Was lucky to run Photoshop alone, s_l_o_w_l_y on a P4. This all changed with 4GB RAM and a dual core. What a relief.
Old system dubbed 'Frankenstein' sits networked in pasture in case of need for XP dependent programs or external bkups which no longer run in Vista without wiping data and reformatting. Fortunately won't need them to thanks to networking the two. Only thing not supported by Camera RAW is .bmp which I'll convert. Files from scans years ago of old photos before understanding formats. Live n' learn.
Much of the time I use Lightroom in lieu of Bridge, but there are times it comes in handy for quick access. Now that Lightroom 2 works interactively with Photoshop it's made this less necessary, but still have uses for both.
John~
You are indeed fortunate Vista is your friend. Must have plenty of RAM to run 64 bit. I on the other hand run 32 and intend to downgrade next fresh install so previous peripheral investments work again. Did not play nicely and Microsoft failed to support their own products, deserving a hall of shame award IMO. Still waiting for MS's next OS, as functional and non functional skip generations with that company.
Close friend also loves Vista, but couldn't help noticing he runs an XP machine on the side like myself.... hehe just in case for specific needs. I'm sure he wouldn't mind my saying we are both happy for you though. ;^D Whatever works. Each person has different needs as always.
