Cannot open dng files using Photoshop CS4 after formatting my computer.

I had  Photoshop CS4 installed at my desktop and because I couldn't open my raw files taken with my Sony A99 I downloaded DNG Data Converter.After that I was able to open my dng files using Photoshop CS4.After some months I formatted my computer and I reinstalled Photoshop CS4.Now I cannot open my older dng files and I get an error message.Also I cannot update my initial version of Photoshop from version 11.0.

Mac or Win?
Did you update Photoshop after reinstalling it?

  • Cannot open CR2 files with Photoshop CS4.

    I own Photoshop CS4 and I recently bought a Canon 5D Mark III. Every time I try to open a CR2 file I get an error message that says "it is the wrong kind of file." Help! What do I do?

    you need cr 6.7 or better.  ps cs4 can only be updated to 5.7
    you can use the dng converter, http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106

  • I can't open .CR2 files in Photoshop CS4

    I'm unable to get the .CR2 files from my new Canon Rebel T3i to open in Photoshop CS4.  I just got this camera and I never had this problem with my old camera (Rebel Xsi).  The raw files from the Xsi will still open, but not the ones from the new camera.  Can anyone help me understand why this is happening?
    Thanks,   Jo

    Just to be perfectly accurate, that would be two options. 
    To use the free Adobe DNG converter, you would download and install the very latest version then whenever you want to edit raw images you'll go through a process something like this:
    1.  Upload the .cr2 files from your camera into a folder on your hard drive.
    2.  Run the DNG Converter application and select the folder (it works on folders, not files).
    3.  Convert all the .cr2 files to .dng files.
    4.  Open the .dng files into Photoshop CS4 through the Camera Raw dialog.

    You can't directly but can use DNG Converter to convert your files so ACR can read and process them.

  • Cannot open DNG files in CS3 or Lightroom?

    When I convert RAW files from my new DMC-LF1 camera to DNG, I can not open the files in CS3 or Lightroom. Isn't DNG supposed to be a universal format?
    I do not have problems with converted DNG files from my Nikon cameras.

    I use the free Adobe DNG Converter vers. 8.1 der supporter mit Panasonic DMC-LF1. I just downloaded this version and now am able to open my Panasonic DNGs in Lightroom, but not in CS3. There are no problems opening my Nikon DNGs in both programs.
    This certainly leaves the problem about DNG as a universal format lasting far out in the future, doesn't matter what camera the file came from.

    As far as I know DNG is supposed to be standardised format. What are you using to convert the RAW files to DNG?

  • 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.

    Is it possible that the creator of the files set a password? That's usually the only time PSE asks for one, although you may be able to open the file just fine in a pdf program that isn't password-aware.

  • Cannot open DNG files via Bridge or Lightroom in Photoshop?

    I have a problem that has popped up since I installed the 5.6 RAW upgrade to my CS4/Lightroom 2.2 package.  Hopefully someone would be kind enough to help me diagnose it, as it affects only about 85,000 raw files currently in my Lightroom Catalogue. 
    The files were originally shot using a Canon professional camera in their proprietary RAW format, CR2. This conversion occurred upon input into Lightroom while at the same time the original CR2 files discarded (as I am not the son of a Hard Drive Manufacture!).  After the installation of the recent DNG/RAW converter upgrade I first noticed that the dng files would not display in Bridge even if I rebuild the cache, however, if I downloaded a Canon CR2 file they displayed without a problem.  This condition Bridge; Lightroom continued to display both types of RAW files correctly, however the dng file now had a small triangle with an explanation symbol inside it on the top right of the thumbnail preview indicating that “Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo, while there was no associated problem with the canon CR2 file.  The message 'You will not be able to make adjustments to this photo” was associated with the triangle icon.  Quite discerning, considering this has occurred to all 18,000 previously imported and rendered dng previews.
    I then tried to import the files into Camera RAW using the ‘right-click technique’ in Bridge on the dng file symbols representing the thumbnails that would be there if I did not have this problem.  When I right clicked and selected ‘Open in Camera Raw’ there is no response what so ever.  If I drag the dng symbol to the Photoshop desktop it results in the following error message “Could not complete your request because of a program error.”  Either way there is no getting the dng file into Photoshop.
    I have attempted the following fixes:
    1.       Clean reinstall of CS4 (saving preferences)
    2.       Clean update of Camera RAW 5.5
    Does anyone out there have any solutions, recommendations, work-around or suggestions for this situation?  Is it a problem with a conversion of the metadata? The file structure itself?  Can it be fixed? At this juncture I am out of Tums’s, that nasty tasting pink stuff in the bathroom and am headed for the pharmacy for something stronger.
    I would appreciate any help at all.

    I know it does help find a solution, but I have run across some older DNG's that will open in LR 2 but will not open in Bridge/CSR 4. (These are DNG's created by Scott Kelby for his LR 2 book - I have attached on to this post.)  I can open them first in LR and then tell LR to edit the image in Photoshop and it will open. I have not yet had the issue of LR not being able to open the DNG correctly. However, I may not have done a DNG conversion since I installed the 5.6 upgrade. When I get a chance I will go convert some CR2 files and see what happens.
    Mike
    I have uploaded one of Kelby's dng's that will not open in my desktop nor laptop Bridge/CSR 4 w/all updates. DNG 5.6 is unable to process them as well. It will import into LR. Other than that I cannot cause DNG's not to load into Bridge/CSR.
    Opps the file is too big. You can download it from here. Kelby's Technical Copy Editor told me she did not have the same problem. Weird. I hope you solve your problem.

  • Cannot open Dng files

    Hi!
    I'm trying to write a script which opens .dng files and then after a few changes, saves them as .jpeg.
    I'm working with CS2.
    I've tried using open with "RawFormatOpenOptions". If I do not initialize the fields inside this struct, it says it misses some values, and If I choose the values manually (I've selected the same values as the ones that appear when I open the image manually) It gives me an error which says "cannot open the file because the open options are incorrect".
    How can I open these .dng files? I do not know which parameters I need to fill in the options so that I'll be able to open the files.

    Problem solved. I had to delete the preferences file (resetting preferences by pressing the required keys when launching Bridge did not solve the problem).
    I am glad I learned that trick by visiting this forum!
