Cannot upload raw files to lightroom 2.0 from my Canon Q10

Lightroom says the CR2 files are corrupt - but I am quite sure they are not because: a) I can view them on the camera and, b) Picasa downloaded them just fine. I originaly tried downloading to LR directly from the camera. When that failed, I downloaded the CR2 files to the hard drive and then tried importing them into LR2. Same error message - the files are corrupted.
Any and all help would be appreciated.
I am going to contact Canon as well.
Thanks
Peter

Peter,
I'm having trouble identifying the "Canon Q10"... does it have an alternate model designator in the US, as many Canons do? Is it a relatively new release camera? Have you previously been able to upload RAW photos taken by this particular model camera into Lightroom 2?
If not, the issue most likely is that Lightroom and Adobe's Camera Raw 5.2 don't support this camera yet. A future release likely will.

If that's your problem, the interim solution is to use Canon software to download the RAW photo and convert it to TIF, and import the TIF to Lightroom. Or shoot RAW+Jpeg, and import the Jpeg to Lightroom and await proper RAW support. Sorry.

I have a new camera and cannot import RAW files into lightroom.

I have a new Sony NEX 5 and have tried importing the ARW files into lightroom. The files are recognized when I import photos from device. When I choose the .arw files to import, I receive an message "unknown errors occurred" and files won't import. I have never had a problem importing files from a card or directly from my older camera. Any suggestions?

Check here to see if your camera is supported yet.
If its a camera launched in the last month it won't be. But you can try LR 3.2 RC and see if it has been added. Otherwise you will have to wait until LR supports the format. This is a problem caused by manufacturers constantly using their own formats which require Adobe to investigate every new format before adding it to LR. In 99.99% of the cases the so called new format from the manufacturers is just a line of code with the name of the camera in it. You can use a EXIF editor tool (just google, lots of free ones) to change the name in the RAW file to one presently supported and then convert to DNG. If you do go down this road then ensure you also keep a copy of the original files just in case something has actually changed.
If you are still using LR 2.7 and the format you need was introduced with LR 3 you don't need to upgrade, you can just use Adobes standalone converter to convert the files to DNG and then import them.

Cannot open Raw files on Lightroom 3.6

Hi I have Lightroom 3.6, and it will not let me open Raw files. I have a canon 600D .
How can I get my Lightroom to open Raw Files ?
Thanks kindly for any replies.

You can d/load the free DNG Converter and convert the CR2 files to DNG and they will import to Lr3.6 or you can upgrade at a small cost to the latest Lightroom which will also import the CR2 files.

Downloading RAW pictures into Lightroom 2.2 from a Canon EOS 50D

I am having problems trying to download pictures either directly from my Canon EOS 50D, or using a LEXAR card reader.
The preview screen in Lightroom shows the thumbnail images (all have the format IMG_0007.CR2 for example), but when I click on Import, it does not find the images. Import results tell me "the files appear to be unsupported or damaged".
I can view all of the original images on the monitor screen of my camera, and they appear to be fine. The same is true for both flash cards I am using (Sandisc Extreme III 16GB and a 2GB). I'm worried that I cannot retrieve about 400 pitures.
Any suggestions??? Many thanks. Ben

Thanks to both Sean and John. Unfortunately I still cannot load the Raw files. I tried loading 2.3RC... no difference. I also tried dragging the images from the card reader on to my extrenal drive and then importing, still no luck. I was taking JPG and Raw images simultaneously. I can load the JPEGs with no problem, it's the Raw files that it tells me are unsupported or damaged (in the message Lightroom gives me.) Maybe the Canon EOS50D is too new for 2.3RC???
Any other ideas??

DNG Converter.

It's a way of opening the Raw files from your OM-D EM-1 without having to upgrade to LR5.
In short, you open the Raw files from the camera uing the DNG converter, convert the Raw files to DNGs. Then you edit the DNG files in LR4.4.

Photoshop Elements 9 and cannot open Raw files from my Canon EOS 1000D camera.

I am using Photoshop Elements 9 on a Windows 7 based PC and would like to know why I cannot open Raw files produced by my Canon EOS 1000D camera.
I have checked the version of the plug in as 6.5 for raw files which is supposed to open .cr2 files and should be compatible according to Adobe site info.
any ideas for next move.
Mick

Hi,
According to all of Adobe's charts, the Canon 1000D should be supported by the basic PSE 9 even without updates. When you said you checked the camera raw version in PSE, did you do that by going to the Help menu and selecting About plugins -> Camera raw?
The Canon 1200D requires ACR 8.4 which is only compatible with PSE 12 - so for PSE 10 your brother would need the DNG converter.
I can't find a sample raw file to try (I do have PSE 9). If you want to upload a sample file to dropbox and give me access, I could try it on my system.
Have you tried opening one of your files on your brothers system?

Just bought Canon 40d - Use CS2 - Cannot read Raw files in Bridge

Heading says it all really. Just purchased new Canon 40D Body and have been using CS2 on Mac OS 10.4 for over two years. Cannot read RAW files in Photoshop Bridge which is what I have used consistently with 20D files up to now. Quick search on Google brought up fact that Adobe had not up upgraded Bridge to read new 40D files but that was 2 years ago. Am now looking for plug-in! Can anyone help or am I now forced to upgrade my CS2 or move away to Aperture or Lightroom? Any help gratefully received. Rob

The 40d is not supported by any version of Camera Raw that can run in CS2. You need at least CS3 and ACR 4.2 or greater.
Dowload the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 5.3 and convert the raw files from your 40d to raw DNGs first, then you can open the DNG files in ACR 3.7 hosted by CS2.

How do i open a raw file in lightroom

how do I open a raw file in lightroom?

Yes, those are good links, but let's clean up the terminology too so we're all talking the same language.
There is no "open" in Lightroom when referring to photos.
You can "import" photos into Lightroom ... this means that now Lightroom has registered the photo's location and other pertinent information into its database, but it does not store the photo itself in the Lightroom database (or anywhere else in Lightroom), so Lightroom never contains your photos; the photo continues to be stored on one of your hard drives, wherever you want it to be, and the file is visible in your operating system.
Once you have imported the photos, then Lightroom can perform tasks on the photos, such as Develop, Print, e-mail or upload, etc. and once you have imported photos into Lightroom, you should not move or rename or delete them outside of Lightroom.

Why can't I upload any files into lightroom?

I've been using Lr for a while and it never gave me any problems, but all of a sudden I can't upload any files into lightroom, whether it's from my iphone or a raw file. I've updated all my software and computer yet lightroom still says it can't read any files once I hit the import button. Any ideas? Thanks!!

Hello! Thanks for answering
This is what is says: Could not copy a file to the requested location.
However, when I started having trouble with this it said something like "lightroom can't read the files". I then updated all of my software.
I'm thinking it could a directory issue?
Also, by "upload" I meant when I hit the IMPORT button.
thank you!!

RAW files in Lightroom (migrating from Aperture)

Hello,
I am an Aperture user that is thinking to migrate to Lightroom after the last announcement by Apple regarding its professional photo application.
I use to work with RAW files in Aperture and I would like to do the same with Lightroom. In this guide, in which Adobe explains how to migrate to its software, I cannot find any help about transferring RAW files to Lightroom (in my case, .NEF files by Nikon). Is it possible to do it?
Thank you in advance, Valerio.

That app does not do it all for you automatically. It does some preparation in Aperture and duplicates your entire picture collection.
Valerio, Adobe’s guide does say you should simply import your files into Lightroom. However, they must be in regular folders - "referenced" rather than "managed". See my Moving from Aperture to Lightroom for more detail.

I cannot open raw files in elements 10

i cannot open raw files in elements 10

The 650D wasn’t supported until ACR 7.2 that was released the beginning of October 2012.
Adobe only updates ACR for their current version of Elements, which is PSE 11, not 10.
So you’ll either need to update to PSE11 or use the DNG Converter 7.2 to convert your CR2 files to DNGs and open them in the older version of ACR.
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106 <http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106&platform=Windows> &platform=Windows
Another alternative would be to get Photoshop Lightroom which doesn’t cost a lot more than Elements and will give you more raw processing capabilities, and you’ll still be able to do Edit in Photoshop Elements for any pixel editing with your older version of Elements:
