Canon 5 d mark 2 - opening RAW/CR2 files with CS3???

I have CS3 version 10.0.1 and Raw convertor 4.6 and a Canon 5 d mark 2
I have downloaded the Camera RAW and DNG converter 5.2 and camera profiles but photoshop still will not open the files and Bridge just displays the RAW icon. Photoshop says it does not recognize this file format?
Any other suggestions- I have downloaded it now a couple of times and tried to install- but no luck - it still does not recognize the 5 d mark 2 .CR2 files - HEELLPPPP!!

>will I be able to edit them with Bridge?
NEVER! But you can use Bridge to open your DNGs in Adobe Camera Raw. :)
Bridge is just a file browser. It does not open, edit or save files of any kind. It just hands the files over to the appropriate application(s) to open them, like Photoshop, Camera Raw, Illustrator, Acrobat, even MS Word, etc.

  • How do I open a CR2 file using CS3 photoshop

    how do I open a CR2 file in CS3

    You cannot open a raw file from that camera  directly in CS3 and never will be able to.  That camera model was supported for the first time in Camera Raw 5.2, which requires CS4 to run.
    You need to convert your Canon raw files to raw DNG files first.  Download, install and run the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.1, which is not tied to any version of Photoshop at all,

  • PSE 7.0 - Can't open RAW .CR2 files

    I know this question has been asked many times, and I'm not a novice user, but I can't get it to work.  Here are the details:
    Windows 7(x64)
    Photoshop Elements 7.0
    Camera Raw Plugin 5.6.0.148 (old camera raw .8bi file removed, I did not use the 64-bit version of the new Plugin)
    Camera:   Canon SX50HS (which is included in the list of supported cameras)
    Nothing I've tried has eliminated the "wrong type of file" message when trying to open .cr2 files.
    So, then I read that I should get the Adobe DNG converter (v7.2.0.46) and convert the files to DNG format.  OK, I got the converter but it doesn't recognize the .cr2 files in the folder in which they exist.  I read another post which indicated that the DNG converter only worked from the C:\ root directory.  So, I put one of the .cr2 files there, and used that as the folder to "select images to convert".  It began scanning my drive, and found all of the .tif files on the drive, but none of the .cr2 files.  It did not convert any of the .tif files.
    I am new to the use of RAW format images, but not to the concept of drivers, plugins, versions, and following installation instructions precisely and have years of professional experience in software (even more frustrating!).  It seems as if there could/should be a plugin update utility that prompts for the camera make/model, verifies that it is compatible, and installs the appropriate software.  I'm sure that the camera information is also embedded somewhere in the image file.
    Sorry to beat this poor horse any further, but any insights would be most welcome!

  • I cant open my .CR2 files with photoshop verion CS5.1

    Hi i recently photographed an event and I used the Canon Rebel T3i. I also stored all the Images with using RAW format. When I went to edit my photos i could not open them with Photoshop.
    I could open the JIP files but not the RAW camera files that were .CR2 files

    the file appears to be from a camera
    model which is not supported by the
    installed version of Camera Raw.

    documentation for additional information.
    The version of Photoshop that I'm using is CS5.1
    I also updated the Camera RAW Plugin to version 6.3.0.79
    I also went to the help tab in Photoshop and clicked on update and updated but I still had the same problem.
    I thought that was going to get me edit my .CR2 files but it just displace the same error message.
    pleas help.

    The T3i was first supported by Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 6.4

    CS5 is compatible with Camera Raw up to version 6.7.

  • Problems opening & resaving NEF files with CS3/CS2

    I seem to be having problems sending my NEF files to Photoshop from Aperture. This started happening just today & I'm not sure what to do.
    What happens is that when I open a NEF file in external editor, instead of just opening up as a psd file in CS3 or CS2 directly like it used to do, it now opens Adobe Raw instead which means that I am unable to resave back into my Aperture Library. Is there anyone who has experienced this as well? Any suggetions as to the cause and a solution? I tried checking preferences for both Aperture as well as Photoshop but nothing seems to work.
    The only thing I can think of is having just updated Adobe Raw to the latest version, 4.3 I think. Other than that Aperture did start up about a week ago & declared my library corrupt & proceeded to rebuild my library. Other than that it was behaving normally until today. Its really irritating & counter productive to be unable to resave my edits in Aperture.
    Any help or suggestions will be very welcome indeed. Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the tip Eduardo, but I checked the preferences and they seem to be correct.
    It seems that only images in certain projects were affected. Could be the ones that Aperture rebuilt earlier. I guess I may have to try exporting the raw files from the affected projects, then deleting and reimporting the projects again. I did try to rebuild the thumbnails but it doesn't seem to help.
    Does anyone have any other suggestions for me to try before I do this?

  • Can i open raw cr2  files from my canon 70d in photoshop elements 12 as my elements9 wont?

    I am struggling to open photos from my canon 70d in  elements9 will elements12 open them?

    Yes, pse 12 will open the files from a canon 70D
    (after the camera raw plugin is updated using Help>Updates in the pse 12 editor)
    In the meantime, you can use the free adobe dng converter to convert your 70D files to dng copies, which pse 9 should then open.

  • Unable to open T1i CR2 files from CS3

    Running CS3 on Windows Vista.  I have updated Camera Raw plugin to 4.6.  I am able to view raw files from my Canon 5D, but not from new Canon T1i.  I get error message of "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document."
    I read that I should use DNG software, but when run, I get error messages on the converted files. I have been able to use Canon software, but would prefer using Adobe.

    What version of the DNG converter are you using?
    It has to be the equivalent level to the Adobe Camera Raw version that would be needed for that camera, ie 5.4 or higher.

  • Why can't I open RAW camera files with Photoshop 6 anymore??

    Attempted to open file, as I've done hundreds of times before. I get pop up window saying software can't open file. Nikon cameras used in my office are all supported.

    What cameras? What system? How are they transferred to the computer? Where are they stored? Did you change your camera settings recently? Manipulate the files in another program? There could be a million reasons...

  • Cannot Open CR2 Files with v6.0

    I recently bought a Canon 7D and discovered that I cannot open its CR2 files with Elements 6.0.  Am I forced to upgrade to a new version?

    canon 7D is supported in only in Elements 8 and above. Now you have two options:
    (1) Upgrade to later PSE versions.
    (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.3
    Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.3
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • I have Lightroom 3.6 and Camera Raw 6.6 but I can't open my CR2 files from my Canon eos 6D

    Hi,
    I have Lightroom 3.6 and Camera Raw 6.6 but I can't open my CR2 files from my Canon eos 6D
    Lightroom doesn't show a thumbnail image and when trying to import it says the camera format isn't supported. But normaly Camera raw 6.6 should cover the Canon eos 6D
    All help is welcome,
    Thanks

    No, the older versions are not free.  If you upgrade you will have to get Lr5 unless you can still find Lr4 for sale somewhere as it has been discontinued by Adobe.  You can also use the FREE DNG converter to convert the 6d files for use in Lr3.6.

  • HELP! Cannot open Canon RAW (CR2) file in PP5.5.2 (Mac)

    Hi folks.
    I cannot import RAW (CR2) files (Canon 5D2) files into premiere pro 5.5.2!
    I can get them into After Effects (through cameraraw) but PP does not even show them as a "supported file type"
    If I drag and drop from the finder I get "unsupported file type" error
    My understanding is that CR2 files are supported in CS5.5
    Any ideas
    MacBook Pro OS X 10.7.2 (Lion)
    For the rest, everything seems to be "normal"
    Thanks in Advance

    To use Camera RAW, you will need to process the files through a Camera RAW converter. With the proper ACR module, PS, and Lightroom will handle that processing, as will the Canon utility. With Adobe ACR, make sure to update to a version that handles YOUR camera's RAW files - mfgrs. tweak those model to model, so keeping the ACR module current will insure that you can handle the particular Camera RAW files properly.
    I agree with Stephen's rec. to NOT use JPEG, if ultimate quality is of a concern. In PS, I just process my Nikon, Panny or Canon Camera RAW files to PSD. I would assume that the Canon utility would have the option for TIFF, as my older one does - there is no option for PSD in it. Do not know about the newer Canon Camer RAW processing, but TIFF should be just fine.
    Good luck,
