Cannot Open a JPEG image as a Camera Raw file in Elements 5.0

I tried opening a JPEG image, using "Open As" function into Camera Raw in Elements 5.0 Editor and I receive a "program error" message. How can I change settings or otherwise enable Elements 5.0 to open a JPEG into Camera Raw?

The latest version of ACR which is compatibe with Elements 5 is ACR4.6. You can download it fromhttp://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4034&fileID=3758
I think the Adobe site says 4.5 was the last forElements 5, but I know 4.6 works. ACR5 needs Elements 7(or possibly 6). Good luck

I recently switched from PC to a Mac Book Pro and some things are different. I used to be able to open a jpeg or tiff in camera raw on my PC in Photoshop CS6 by going to file, open as, picking my image under file name and "open as" click on camera raw. Ho

I recently switched from PC to Mac and I want to be able to open a tiff or jpeg in camera raw. I could do it on my PC but can't figure out how to do it in Mac??

Use File>Open, set Enable to All Readable Documents, then click on your tiff or jpeg and select Camera Raw under Format
Then click on Open

I can not open a crw image in photoshop camera Raw.

When I go to open a CRW Image in CS5,Bridge It will not open.It says Could not complite your request because it is not the right kind of document.Need help bad.
PS How do I tell what version of Camera Raw I have.By the way I have a Canon EOS 10D camera.Thanks.

Within Photoshop go to the "About Plug-in…" menu item just below "About Photoshop" to find the Camera Raw version number. On which menu that is depends on your platform, Macintosh or Windows, which you neglected to mention.
Raw files from your camera have been supported since version 2.0 of Camera Raw for years and years, so it's not a question of your version of ACR. Any version of ACR that runs in CS5 should open those files.
I suspect your raw files are damaged (corrupted).

Opening camera raw file in elements

I am using photoshop elements 5.0 on windows vista. My problem is I am not able to transfer my raw files to the editor. The message I get is 'cannot open raw files/08...NEF because it is the wrong type of file' I am very much a newbie at this so any detailed help would be much appreciated

Janis,
You need to upgrade your ACR plug-in to version 4.5, which does work with Elements 5.0 according to this:

Follow the instructions on the download page to the letter.

How do find the list of Supported Cameras raw files for Elements 12

Where can you find the list of cameras that are supported by photoshop Elements 12 raw processing?

Hi R Kelly,
I tried to follow your directions for marking your answer as correct….. but I could not locate the “Correct” under the box where your answer appeared. I tried clicking on the green icons to the right of the page but I could not get the “not answered” phrase to change to “Correct answer”. I have not used this forum before and have no clue how it functions…. sorry

Dear R Kelley,
Thank you so much for your help. I am thinking of purchasing the Panasonic Lumix Fz200 and wanted to be sure that my editing software supported my cameras raw format. The OSX system is….. iMac Mavericks. do have the Camera raw 8.5 with both my Elements 12 and the Photoshop CS6 Extended. I will go ahead and order my camera… yeah!
Again, thank you,

Cannot open scanned JPEG images

Have an iMac running Yosemite 10.10.1 Have just scanned a photo and it has been saved in Documents as a JPEG file - just as I have done many times before. But now when I try to open the file I get a message "The file “IMG_20150103_0001.jpg” could not be opened. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize." JPEG files from earlier scans ) from before I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.1) however still open.

I would try to see if you can get Image Capture to serve your needs. People often have trouble with dedicated 3rd party software for peripherals, and unless you are doing something more than basic scanning, Image Capture will do the job. There's a good chance Image Capture will work for you.

Opening Camera Raw file in CS3 Bridge

I have CS3 Bridge and CS3 Dreamweaver instaled as well as Photoshop CS2.
I want to open Camera Raw files in CS3 Bridge. The Bridge Help file says:
"Select 'Edit Camera Raw Settings' in Bridge General Preferences to open Camera Raw dialog box in Bridge" (as opposed to opening in Photoshop.)
But my Bridge General Preferences has no such checkbox option. When I open a CR file in CS3 Bridge, the file opens in Photoshop CS2.
How do I get the file to open in CS3 Bridge.
Thanks, CMA

I had a problem with this previously and came up with the following:
If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF and hold down the shift key, Camera Raw will not be scheduled
If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF image, the image will always schedule Camera Raw if the Bridge menu item Edit/Preference/Thumbnails has Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG and TIFF checked (Bridge JPEG and TIFF Checked).
If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF image and Bridge JPEG and TIFF is unchecked and the JPEG or TIFF image has previously been processed by Camera Raw, Camera Raw will be scheduled if Camera Raw Preferences dialog has Always open JPEG files with settings using Camera Raw or Always open TIFF files with settings using Camera Raw checked.
If I am in Bridge and double click a TIFF image and the TIFF file has layers, the TIFF file will not schedule Camera Raw.
In Photoshop Preferences (Edit/Preference/File Handling) there is a check box titled Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG files. I checked the check box and opened a JPEG image in Photoshop Camera Raw was scheduled. I clicked Open Image in ACR and then saved the image in Photoshop (JPEG saved in Photoshop after passing thru ACR). I then Unchecked the check box and opened the JPEG file Camera Raw was not scheduled.
The only action I see for the Photoshop File Handling check box is to either schedule or not to schedule JPEG images. I do not see any related action for TIFF files in Photoshop. My expectation is that TIFF files will open in Photoshop not ACR.

Pse8 - open several jpeg images in raw

I have achieved this 2x but unable to do so consistantly, i open folder/files with organizer - file>get photo videos>from files folders; select all, click fix>full edit and mostlyl all photos open as jpeg individual photos not in RAW - help dave h

There isn't really a way to force JPEG and TIFF files to open in Camera Raw from the Organizer. The reason some files are opening in Camera Raw and others are not is because those that are opening in Camera Raw have been opened there previously. Once you open a JPEG or TIFF in Camera Raw, the file becomes tagged and will continue to open in Camera Raw. You can open groups of images in the Elements Editor in Camera Raw to give them this tag. Just use File > Open As, choose your files and set the format drop-down at the bottom to "Camera Raw" (Just use File > Open on Mac).

Opening jpegs from iPhoto in Camera Raw

Hi there, I really hope someone can help me as i have just purchased PSE10 for Mac and am a complete novice!. I have bought the book 'The photoshop elements 10 book for digital photographers' and would like to begin to learn to edit my jpeg photos (organised in iphoto) in camera raw, however after setting PSE 10 as my external editer it only opens the jpegs in an editer but not the camera raw one.
Is there a way of changing this? I've searched the net for a the answer but cant find it
I plan to take future photos in Raw mode so I only need this for my existing photos
Many thanks
Chris

Not sure about iPhoto but you cdan opeb directly from the Editor App.
Open the Editor and click:
File à Open
Select your image and choose camera raw as the format, then click the Open button.
The image should open in the Adobe Camera Raw dialog where you ca use all the regular sliders.
The attached notes should be helpful.

See for yourself which version of ACR is needed for that camera’s RAW files
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
then check your version (Photoshop > About Plug-In > Camera Raw).
Your version of Photoshop does not support that version of ACR.
You could use the free DNG Converter.

You have to change the settings in whatever program you use to open the jpg. Firefox has no control over that. What program do you use to open jpg?

Why does photoshop 12 editor open my Nikon D90 Camera RAW files only as jpegs???

Why does photoshop 12 editor open my Nikon D90 Camera RAW files only as jpegs???

Hi,
Which operating system are you running on?
What makes you think that the raw files are being opened as JPGs?
Do you shoot RAW+JPG and opening the JPG files bt mistake?
If you are opening a RAW (NEF) file and it doesn't show the Camera Raw screen but goes straight into the editor then it may be that your screen resolution is too low.
What is your screen resolution?

Elements 9 saved file "cannot open because it is the wrong type of file"

I have Windows XP. I just purchased Photoshop Elements 9.
I open a raw, tiff or jpg image in Elements 9, make changes to it and then save it as a tiff or jpg.
About a third of the time the icon for the saved image appears as a file and not a thumbnail of the image in my saved folder.
When I try to re-open it in Elements 9 I get the message "Cannot open because it is the wrong type of file"
I never had this problem with Elements 7.
Please help!
Mike

Every camera model has its own raw format, and Adobe can't update the camera raw plug-in until it gets the information from the manufacturer, and the process takes a while. You shouldn't have to wait more than a couple of months for this. In the meantime you can use the manufacturer's software, or try downloading the latest DNG converter to see if it can make DNG files from your camera that will work in ACR.
Incidentally, you're not talking to adobe here, just to other users like yourself.
The standlalone DNG converter download is here:
http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
Just pick the DNG Converter for your platform from the pulldown menu.

Opening RAW files in Bridge - not recognized as "Camera RAW files"

I would appreciate any help with this as I am frustrated after spending hours trying to figure this out:
I use a Mac OS X laptop
I have a Panasonic (DMC FZ8) camera that I've been taking RAW pictures with. I plug my camera into my computer and try and open the RAW files directly from the camera using Bridge (I have Photoshop CS2)..I have also tried copying the files to a folder on my desktop and opening from there. The problem is that Bridge doesn't recognize my .RAW files as actual "Camera RAW" files and the icons remain as the Preview icon and not actually a preview of the image. If I click on it to open it in Photoshop the "Photoshop RAW Options" come up set on 8 bits and when I open it, it's just a gray screen. I have checked the settings for RAW Camera and the Panasonic RAW files .raw is selected. I have also tried selecting "show only camera raw files" in my window that is open and my .RAW files that are there gray out - so the program isn't recognizing them.
I just downloaded the Plug-in 3.7 Camera Raw and had to create folders for it in Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS2/File Formats. the only folder I had was Application Support/Adobe so the rest I created.
I'm now lost as to what I should do next. Nothing I try seems to be working.
PLEASE HELP!

>I plug my camera into my computer and try and open the RAW files directly from the camera
Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
That is a monumentally bad idea. Transfer the closed files to your local hard drive first.
This excerpt is from a long-gone post by the late, lamented author Bruce Fraser:
Bruce Fraser - 4:17pm Jun 14, 04 PST (#5 of 21)
Opening files directly from the camera is a bad idea for a variety of reasons*, and it most certainly isn't faster than using a FireWire or USB2 card reader.
         Drains the camera battery
         Runs the risk of the software you're using to open the images writing to the card and destroying the format
         Runs a small but significant risk of USB power frying the camera
         Slowest method known to mankind of getting images off a CF or SD card
