Can't update camera raw:  "Unable to apply updates"

Can't update camera raw:  "Unable to apply updates You are already running Adobe Application Manager. Please close all instances of Adobe Application Manager before applying updates." The only instance of AAM that is running is the one that opens automatically when I click "Updates" in the PS 6 Help menu.

What's your OS ?
Check in Task Manager (Windows) or Activity Monitor (Mac) if there is any instance of AAM running.

  • HT4757 Can the digital camera RAW compatibility update 3.13 work for iPad?

    Trying to transfer photos from my Nikon 3200 to iPad using the camera kit.  Can the digital camera RAW compatibility 3.13 update work for iPad?  Attempts to download it directly to iPad sends it to Evernote and then message comes up that synchronization failed.  Not a tech geek by any means so if you can help, please explain as simply as possible.  Thanks much.

    45 views and no replies? Isn't there anyone that can answer if I need this update or not or is my question not clear? Does anyone else have a similar question relating to  the Digital Camera Raw compatibility update 3.11?

  • HELP!!  Adobe Updater won't work and can't install camera raw 4.6

    I just installed Photoshop CS3 Extended onto my new MacBook Pro running Mavericks OS.  My Adobe Updater says "No Internet connection.  Please check your Internet settings and/or firewall.  Waiting for connection..." That's the first problem.  I figured out how to manually update Photoshop and Bridge, but Adobe Updater still shows this message when trying to check for updates.  Also, I've tried to update Camera Raw from 4.0 to 4.6 and I can't figure out how to manually install it.  I knkow the website says to do the following:
    Mac:
    Exit Photoshop CS3 and Adobe Bridge.
    Open the Finder.
    Navigate to the root of the local disk (not the user’s home folder).
    Navigate to Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS3/File Formats.
    Move the existing plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensure you keep this version in case you need to revert back.
    Copy the Camera Raw plug-in, Camera Raw, from the download into the same folder as in Step 4.
    Launch Photoshop CS3 or Adobe Bridge.
    I nativagated to Library/Application Support/Adobe, but there is no Plug-Ins folder.  So, I manually entered "Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS3/File Formats" and it says this folder doesn't exist.  Can anyone help me update my camera raw?!  PLEASE!!
    Thank you so much!

  • Why can't I update Camera Raw 6.6 through Help menu?

    I have a Photoshop Element 10 Editor (the one bought from App Store), and now I try to update Camera Raw to 6.6.  After reading through Adobe's website, they suggest to update it from help menu but problem is I couldn't find the update in my help menu.  What did I do wrong?  So I then downloaded the Camera Raw 6.6 from Adobe Website trying to manually install it, and now I got a message "Update is not applicable".  What does this mean now?  Any advice please...
    Also, I contacted Adobe via Live Chat, and then I got supporter who asked me for only serial number otherwise there is no help.  I then told him, App Store did not provide one but seems he doesn't have a clue what is App Store and insisted me to contact the store directly to ask for a serial number.   ???  I tried to explain him that the App Store is the store where you downloading software online through Apple's computer, and he seems still not understand what App Store is and concluded me if I have any other question I would like to ask?  Great.. so I asked him where he is residing and he replied "India".  Well.. I don't know how the support live chat go through India, but I want a support from someone who know what "App Store" is.  His name is Vasu, seems to be a gentle man but.....

    You can't update it because you have the app store version. Apple doesn't allow apps sold via the app store to update any way except via the app store, and adobe evidently doesn't think it's worth creating a whole new version every time there's a raw update. You can do it manually, although it's quite a pain. Directions are in this thread:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4106312#4106312
    EDIT Incidentally, although I doubt it will help with tech support (they often seem to be missing all PSE pages from their script books), for the app store version your serial number is your apple ID, at least when it comes to qualifying for upgrade pricing and things like that.

  • 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.

  • Update problem - can't upgrade Camera Raw

    I recently upgraded my Macbook Pro. I am trying to reinstall my Photoshop CS5 Extended (student edition) and complete the upgrade to Camera Raw 6.7, but I get an error saying "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later." I click on "contact customer support" link, which brings up a page with the title " Error: This serial number is not for a qualifying product."
    I bought this myself, and did not deactivate it prior to wiping my hard drive and upgrading my operating system. Is this the problem?
    How can I update Camera Raw, and all the other Adobe extensions for that matter?

    Here is the error that appears :

  • Can't update Camera Raw 8.3

    Just bought Elements 12 and it wouldn't import my RAW files from my Olympus OM-D E-M1 camera. I assumed that's a result of Camera Raw not being updated to the latest revision so I checked to see if there was an update available and sure enough, there was. That's where the good news ended. I can't run the update until I quit both Elements Organizer and Elements Auto Analyzer. Quiting Organizer is easy but there doesn't appear to be a way to quit Elements Auto Analyzer on the Mac. As a result, I can't run the update and can't import the RAW files. This is an example of poor programing on so many levels it's embarassing. At the moment, I have a totally useless piece of software.
    I'd love to have a shortcut to work around the problem but Adobe really needs to clean up their act here.

    Consider
    Trying to update it with the full Photoshop version can be done, but this will prevent future automatic updates from working.
    I would question that generalization. Specifically,
    a. If you had Premiere Elements 12, updated Camera Raw from 8.2 to 8.3 manually using the files pointed to, if and when there is a Camera Raw 8.4, I do not see any problem updating Help Menu/Update or manually for that 8.3 to a projected 8.4.
    In the case relating specifically to this thread, Premiere Elements 12, I see no reason why a manual install of 8.3 will prevent future updates of that Camera Raw version if there are more released that are compatible with 12.
    b. However, if I had version 11 which probably did not support Camera Raw beyond Camera Raw 7.4 and did a manual install of 8.2 (which I know can be done), I would not expect to use Help Menu/Update to update that "8.2" to "8.3".
    And updating manually with "full Photoshop version" here will get you the same Camera Raw 8.3 with all its "Elements" disabled features just as always when comparing to Help Menu/Updates  by the book.
    I base the above on my personal experience with version 11, where I manually installed Camera Raw 8.2 and obtained the results cited.

    You can get the camera raw 8.8 updater from here for photoshop cc 2014

    There is as of yet no update for lightroom 5

    You would need to convert the files to dngs first before lightroom would read them.

  • ? CS5 Unable to Update Camera Raw or Bridge

    Adobe support case #0181633618
    I spent over three hours on the phone with Adobe's technician, and the problem is unresolved.
    We un-installed CS5 Photoshop and reinstalled it as a "new user."  Install stopped midway to say there was an ISP problem.  We chose the option “install anyway."  This message was the same on the initial CS5 installation.  I upgraded from CS4.  Never a problem with CS4.
    Turned off all antivirus and firewall software.
    Could not find other Photoshop applications running while watching the Task Mgr.Processes.
    We manually download the updates and also let Photoshop Updater download them. 
    Photoshop starts and runs fine, but will not update Camera Raw and/or Bridge.
    Error message: "another version of Updater is running.  Try again later." 
    Thanks,
    Bob

    There are comprehensive answers in the Camera Raw forum and Bridge forum.

  • Can't update Camera Raw because updater says need to close Bridge

    Help! I am trying to update Camera Raw on CS5 so it will work better with LightRoom 3, but the updater stalls and says to close Bridge. Bridge does not appear in Task Manager, and I even uninstalled it, but I keep getting the same message. Why is Bridge holding up the update? Thanks.

    Check in Task Manager (Windows) or Activity Monitor (Mac) if there is any instance of AAM running.
