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 I upgrade Camera Raw support in Elements 10 to level 8.3 or 8.4?

I just bought a Nikon D5300 and I wanted to shoot see some test images I shot in Camera Raw. Trouble is that Elements 10 support for NEF files is at level 6.7, and, according to the Adobe charts, the D5300 NEF files are supported at level 8.3 or 8.4 because the camera is newer than Elements 10. So, I tried to run an update in Elements 10, but it's telling me that it's up to date.
So, how do I get support for my new camera in Elements 10? Is there a way to upgrade the Camera Raw support to level 8.3 or 8.4?

I posted a second question because I tried the DNG converter, but it doesn't support the 5300, or I can't get it to work. So, my thought was to try to find a copy of PSE 11 I could register, and then try to upgrade it.
Soapbox mode on.
Much of the conversation about raw files relates to the continuous improvement process of both the camera manufacturers and the software makers. In my case, Nikon released the D5300 in November 2013 with full support for it in its View NX software. And I can use that software to create JPEG's that PSE 10 can work with, but it's far from an optimal solution.
Adobe brought out PSE12, and the Camera Raw plug in covers a host of new cameras including mine. OK, but the issue is that those of us who have 'older' software then are forced to upgrade to the PSE version that will support our cameras, instead of just installing a plug-in, as we do to our browsers when a new version of Flash Player comes out. the only thing constant is 'change'.
It's apparent from comments I've been reading on the Forum that many of the Adobe employees who answer questions here are put out by the pace of change and the amount of work they have to do in order to respond to new cameras, etc. That's their job, and they should complain less and work more, IMO. If those Adobe employees are irritated by the questions we users ask, perhaps they should reconsider the attitude they display in answering them, or maybe even a career change.
However, Adobe itself should be making the plug-ins for PS, LR and PSE so they can apply to older versions when possible. Adobe needs to set a horizon on what older products to work with, and not just the latest version. When I worked in software development, that horizon was -2 versions plus the two in development. By that logic, PSE 10 should be capable of supporting the latest versions of the Camera Raw plug-in. And if I were in Adobe's software development unit, this is what I'd pitch for. Microsoft does it, and Adobe does it too with Microsoft products, so why not with PS, LR and PSE? It's not that hard, people.
Soapbox mode off.
I can and probably will use the Nikon software for raw images. If I want to use some special effects, I can come back to PSE or LR. But I'm not disposed to throw another $80 to Adobe for a product every time I buy a new camera.

Which camera make and model are your Raw files from?
Camera Raw ships with Photoshop and is constantly upgraded by Adobe to keep up with new cameras as they are released to market.
It's likely that your camera requires a version of Camera Raw which is not compatible with your CS5. Or you may simply need to upgrade Camera Raw via Help > Updates in Photoshop.

I have cs5 for windows and can´t use camera raw (6.5) with nikon d800e

I have photoshop cs5 and can´t use camera raw (6.5) for nikon d800e.

You will need to update to the latest ACR ver 6.7.1 for Photoshop cs5.
If you go to Photoshop's Help menu > Updates..., it should be available for download.

Unable to upgrade Camera Raw with CS4 in Lion...

Hi All,
very frustrating; I have been unable to upgrade Camera Raw despite several attempts.
I've downloaded the latest version as an upgrade; I've done Software upgrades through PhotoShop, but for some
reason these do not seem to have taken, ie., the version of ACR in Bridge preferences remains 5.0.
This makes it impossible for the computer (a brand new MacBook Pro) to read or convert to DNG raw files
from a Nikon D300S.
Oddly, ACR 5.0 converts raw files from a D700 just fine.
Also puzzling is that my attempt to upgrade to ACR 5.7 in a 5 month old iMac have been smooth as silk (OS 10.6.7)
Help!

At one point, I was one of the most vocal critics of camera raw in the CS4 / Lightroom v2 days. In short, I felt that there was not enough control over noise reduction and fine detail rendition when processing digital camera raw files, especially at higher ISOs, although I had been quite pleased with earlier versions. That all changed when CS5 / LR v3 was released. You now have an enormous amount of control over exactly how much sharpening and how much noise reduction will be applied to an image. The amount of fine detail one can extract from a low-ISO raw file is extraordinary. When you crank up the ISO and an image gets noisy, you now can choose whether or not you prefer a smoother look at the expense of some of the more subtle texture details, or a slightly grainier look where one has a feeling that no significant fine details are lost from the original capture (what I prefer). The raw processing defaults in Adobe's latest software are good starting points, but for my personal tastes, I generally do modify them a bit with less NR and slightly more sharpening at a smaller radius.
Even out-of-camera JPEG files will benefit from the new processing engine. I find that turning down the sharpening and NR in-camera, and then applying some subtle tweaking in LR, for example, makes for much better looking images even when starting from a JPEG. If you are a raw shooter, like I am, then upgrading to the latest Photoshop and Lightroom is absolutely 100% worthwhile in my opinion!
I personally feel that the quality of raw conversions in Adobe's latest software are pretty much the best there are. I have used many other raw converters (Capture One, Aperture, RAW Developer, Silky Pix, Canon's DPP etc.), and while each have their strengths, overall I far prefer the look of the final image from Adobe's latest software. Sure, I might find the colour rendition slightly better, in some cases, from some other raw converters, but colour I can fix. Poor detail rendition or heavy-handed/crude noise reduction I cannot.
EDIT: Also should mention how good the lens correction controls are. Not only are there automatic lens corrections available (possibly of limited use with an M8 due to potential lack of lens EXIF information), but the manual corrections are extremely useful. Chromatic aberration, vignetting, highlight fringing and distortion control all work extremely well and are minimally harmful to image quality, unlike performing those same corrections in Photoshop after the raw conversion stage. You also have excellent perspective corrections that, amazingly enough, seem to have very little impact on image quality even when fairly dramatic adjustments are made.
Lastly, I own both Noise Ninja and Topaz DeNoise and since upgrading to Adobe's latest software, I don't think I have felt the need to use either of those two third party NR plugins once. Purely from a noise reduction standpoint, upgrading to CS5 or LR v3 is almost like getting a new camera, almost like moving from a cropped sensor to a full-frame as far as high-ISO image quality.
I would suggest you download Lightroom v3 and give the 30 trial version a whirl. Spend some time in the Detail section of the Develop module and make sure that for each image you are looking at, ones that you may have edited in previous versions of Camera Raw or Lightroom, that you have "2010(Current)" chosen in the "Process:" section of the CameraCalibration tab in Develop. That will ensure that you are fully benefitting from the latest raw conversion engine. Zoom in to 100% before you tweak the Detail settings to make sure you are seeing actual pixel-level detail. I think you may be amazed at what you can do...
Regards,
Mike Mander

Camera Raw update for CS5 Extended

I am looking for a Camera Raw update for CS5 Extended. I currently have CR 6.7.0.339. IS there something newer for me to use with CS5 Extended, Ver. 12.1x64?

Camera Raw 6.7 is the latest version that's compatible with Photoshop CS5. There's nothing newer for CS5.

If you need Camera Raw 7+ for your camera, you'll have to upgrade to Photoshop CS6.

Since installing Photoshop CC I can't access Camera Raw from the program Bridge.

Since installing Photoshop CC I can't access Camera Raw from the program Bridge. When I try, I get a message that says, "Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature." Is Photoshop CC a qualifying product? It has been opened a number of times, but it doesn't solve this problem.

I am having this exact same problem and just upgraded to Windows 7...many people are saying to update the Plug In for Camera Raw to 4.6, but that is not working for me to see it in Bridge or Camera Raw.

Can I use Camera Raw 5.6 in CS3?

I am using an old laptop with old software for a trip overseas and have CS3 installed. CS3 is unable to read the RAW files from my Canon 7D. Looks like it can only be opened in CS4 or later, anyone know a work around?

No, you can't use Camera Raw 5.6 in CS3. Your only option is t upgrade or download the free DNG Converter and convert the raw files to DNG.

How do I change the CS6 Camera Raw to the CS5 mode?

Hello! I prefer to edit my RAW photos with the CS5 Camera raw interface, ie Fill Light instead of Highlights/Whites, ect... I see that when I open or apply an older CS5 preset to a raw in CS6, the interface switches back to the CS5 interface, which is great, and shows its possible. So how do I open new raw files in CS6 using the CS5 interface as default?

Well...
First, you probably don't want to do that.
Secondly, you don't want to do that.
But if you still want to do that, go over to the Camera Calibration tab and choose a different Process.
Then you can Save New Camera Raw Defaults
But you really don't really want to do that.
I suggest you think twice about changing your default to an older Process Version, because there are a lot of things the old process did poorly that the new one does much better.
I assume you want the old process because you like the way the controls work better, but it's well worth taking the time to get used to the new controls. It really is.

Problem using/upgrading camera raw

I have Windows 7/64 bit. When I first installed Photoshop CS5, I immediately upgraded Camera Raw. Later, after opening Bridge from Photoshop, I found I could not get Bridge to open a file in Camera Raw. I knew that Raw was working because I had previously opened an Adobe lesson file using it. When I attempted to open one of my files I received an error message: "Bridge's parent application is not active". I have since learned that Bridge will only open a file in Raw, if Bridge is initiated from the 32bit version of Photoshop (or if the 32bit version of Photoshop is open). OK, I thought I'd solved the problem, ie open both the 32bit and 64bit versions of photoshop and then access to Raw is fine. However, I then decided to upgrade Camera Raw in the 32bit version of Photoshop. When I then attempted to open what I thought was the 32bit version, I got the 64bit version instead and, of course, lost the access to Raw.
I've only learned this after uninstalling and re-installing several times. I'm now not willing to upgrade Camera Raw for fear of losing access to it again. This is not a very satisfactory situation.
Does anyone understand what is going on, and whether there is a work-around?
Thanks
Grahame M

There's nothing wrong here. You only all too quickly updated it. You need to run PS at least once, and open an image via ACR (the one that it installs by default), so it configures itself. Once that has happened, updates should go smoothly without all the higgledy-piggledy. For more specific guidance ask in the ACR and Photoshop forums.
