Canon 5D Mk II Raw files in CS4?

Ok, I just bought a new macbook pro with snow leopard , whatever and a new version of cs4 it will not recognize RAW fles from my 5d mkii it just shows them(all un supported RAW files) as a default icon that has two photos on it on eon top of the other photo and the pic is of a little boy on a beach and next to the photo is a Loupe maybe?/ do I need to add adobe camera raw or what? I was on the phone with apple and they had no idea and of course there is NO adobe customer support anymore so I am screwed, in fact I have been on the phone on hold with adobe customer support for two weeks as I wanted to change from my Microsoft OS cs4 to apple and I could not get thru so I actually bought a brand new version of cs 4 so I could work and now I have a NEW Mac and a NEW cs4 for it and STILL cannot work!!! anyone PLEEEEEEEZE?????

Thank you Mr. Chan. for your assistance. I am not sure what you are attempting to point at though. The program I am using is DNG 5.5 and my Photoshop CS4 is up to date.
As mentioned above :
" Okay, thanx Got it. Seems it was a 101 question and answer. I was looking to make a selection of Individual RAW files in my folder for my testing the performance of the DNG Converter 5.5. "
I did convert a single file to DNG
I stumbled onto the solution on my own. The source of my problem was my thinking that i would select a file for conversion out a folder of files and not the entire contents of a folder. DNG wants to do everything in a batch and is not set up for individual selection of a file from a folder of files. Once I made a folder and placed one file in that folder the program worked. Logical for batch processes but silly of them not to allow a single file selection from a operators perspective.

Opening Canon 5d MarkIII raw files in CS4?

I'm unable to find an update that will allow me to open Canon 5d Mark III raw files in CS4. I've downloaded a few updates, but nothing seems to be working. Help!

Convert the 5D Mark III Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS4.

To edit 5D Mark III Raw files, you need at least ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) 6.7 (preferably 7.1). ACR is a plugin for Photoshop which Adobe must continually update on a camera by camera basis.
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cam eras.html
CS6 was the first version to support ACR 7.1. CS5 supported ACR 6.x.

If you really want to edit Raw files, you would now be required to join the Creative Cloud since CS4 is no longer eligible to upgrade to CS6 or any version thereafter.
Your other option would be to buy a new full version of Photoshop CS6 (superseded today by the new version Photoshop CC which is only available via the Adobe Cloud).

Can't open canon raw files in cs4

I recently had to rebuild my pc after a problem that stopped a few of my programs working (I'd installed xampp so I could use wordpress on the pc but it stopped cs4, firefox, video studio and a bunch of other stuff working - removal and reinstalling did no use, I had to build a new disc).
I reinstalled cs4 and got all the updates but now I find I can't open can raw files with cs4 or bridge. I tried replacing the Camera Raw.8bi file with the latest file from adobe as per their web instructions but it still doesn't work. So I tried the adobe dng convertor (version 8.3) and ran the files through that, still no luck, I can't open the files.
I could open them wwith canons own software and save as a tiff, but then I'm losing a lot of information.
I'm still running vista home premium - no I can't upgrade to windows 8.1 and use the latest photoshop and lightroom software because 8.1 doesn't work with my nikon scanner or my epson large format printer. It doesn't like a few other items I have either.
I remember I had to download a few files a couple of years ago when I first bought the pc (a whole 3 years ago) as I was having trouble with photoshop and raw files then but I can't remember the name of the file or where I got it from.
Anyone able to help? much appreciated if you can.

Hi John,
Adobe told me to replace the relevant file, which I did. The trouble is that went I do this then 'camera raw' disappears from the 'help / plugins' list and there doesn't seem to be any way of getting back other than uninstalling and reinstalling cs4, and once I do this it overwrites the files again...
I can't remember having this trouble when I first installed it a couple of years ago but I do seem to remember having to replace a file somewhere but that may have been on an earlier version.
I have an old EOS 5d mk1 & a 7d mk1, so it's not as though the camera is unknown to cs4.
Regards,
Doug

Reading Raw files in CS4

I am trying to open Olympus raw files in CS4 and it keeps telling me that it is the wrong type of file. I have downloaded and installed DNG converter and the PS updater and STILL the program won't open Oly raw files (Tells me it's the wrong kind of file). What DO I DO to make this work? I am anxious to work in raw, but so far have been unable to figure out how!!
HELP!
Beth

The DNG converter is a stand-alone program and does't have to "go" anywhere special.
What model of camera do you have?

Canon 7d mark II raw files open error

Photoshop elements 12 will not open the canon 7d mark II raw files, from what I read elements are not going to upgrade there camera profiles anymore, so anything new your just out of luck? The support people have no clue.

Faq:
FAQ: Will Photoshop Elements work with my camera, or Why won't my raw files open?
more specifically:
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
in which you find that your camera requires the ACR 8.7 version
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
in which you see that PSE12 can't, and that PS13 can with an update.
So what solution, since Adobe does not upgrade older versions? It's the free Adobe DNGconverter:
Use the latest version of the free DNG Converter (for Macintosh or Windows)
You can convert your files to the universaly compatible DNG format (the files will work with any version of the Camera Raw plug-in). See In depth : Digital Negative (DNG) for more information.
This standalone utility lets you batch convert whole folders of raw files to the DNG raw format that your PSE12 can read.

Problem opening Canon 5D Mark II raw files

Adobe support has started a case file #181481276 on my problem. I recently had my hard drive replaced so I had to reload my photoshop elements 7. It wouldn't open the Canon 5D Mark II raw files so I downloaded the latest raw plug-in 5.5 for PSE 7. Still wouldn't open the raw files. I may not be doing the right thing with the clunky #%&# zip files. Adobe support said I should download the raw plug-in 5.2 (seems if 5.2 would work subsequent plug-ins like 5.5 should also work). I downloaded 5.2 and nada no help. Am I doing something wrong with the zip files? I open each of the three files that downloaded (even moved them to the Adobe folder in the C program files folder). My operating system is XP Professional.

Adobe support is generally unreliable. You should install the latest version of ACR, 5.6. It's easy to make a mistake with the manual installation instructions. See this FAQ for troubleshooting:

Photoshop Elements 9 and Canon 5D Mark II raw files

Does the newest Elements now open the Canon 5D Mark II raw files? I called their customer service number and the women I talked to seemed uncertain about it. I have CS5 at home, and of course, there is no problem opening those files. But at work, they only have Elements and the past versions wouldn't open these files. Hoping the new version will. THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT.

Yes photoshop elements 9 will open them.
Depending on which photoshop elements versions you have at work,
you may just have to update the camera raw plugin to open those files.

Will Lightroom 4 get updated with support for Canon 7D Mark II Raw Files?

I received an update for Photoshop to support Canon 7D Mark II raw files (ACR 8.7), will Lightroom 4.4 get an update to support these files?

I don't know why you feel it makes things more complex. All you need to do is use the DNG converter as your download software. The conversion takes place during the download, and then you can import directly into Lightroom. I'm not trying to sell you on using DNG. But it isn't as cumbersome as it seems.
Since Lightroom doesn't utilize the Camera Raw plug-in, it makes it more difficult to provide updates. In Lightroom update means distributing a whole new Lightroom program.

Finder not showing previews of Canon 5D Mark II raw files?

I've updated to Mac OS 10.5.7 but the Finder is still not showing the previews of Canon 5D Mark II raw files.
This is on a Mac Mini with 1.83 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
(Interestingly, I have another Mac Mini with 1.42 GHz PowerPC G4, running Mac OS 10.4.11, and the Finder does show previews of the Canon 5D Mark II raw files...)
Thanks!

Canon 7d Mark ii raw files?

When will LR and PS support the new Canon 7d Mark ii raw file format?

Quote "Same issue here... So what's the current best way to get images to LR5? Canon Digital Photo Proffessional?"
The simple answer is yes, until other third party programs that offer support in processing raw files from the Canon 7d Mk ii.
If Lightroom / ACR or other software is critical to your work process then do not purchase a new camera model until you have verified that support is available in the software of your choice.

Canon 5D Mark 2 Raw Files wont import.

My Friend has a Canon 5d Mark 2 and the files will not import. it says it's an unrecognized format.
now when I shoot with my Canon rebel Xti in raw it will import them. does anybody know if apple will support the canon 5d mark 2 raw files in iPhoto? Or is there something i did not check in prefs to help import?

Hi. I've got a slightly different problem. I've just upgraded from Canon 20D to 5D and although the RAW files and JPEGs DO both import, the RAW files are no longer labelled 'CR' with the image number. There's just an image number, which duplicates the JPEG file number alongside. I've tried to find a setting in iPhoto9 prefs and also on the camera to add the CR suffix, but have not resolved this. I would like the RAWs to import with the CR tag, as with the 20D. Am I missing something...?!

Error with Canon Raw file in CS4

I have recently purchased a Canon 1D MK IV I have CS4 running on my Windows 7 Laptop and my Vista 64 bit PC and I get an error when I try to open a Raw file to process. Excuse me if this problem has been beat up before, I'm new to Forum and could not find the problem in a search. The error message says, "Cannot complete your request because its not the right kind of Document" Any help you can give is appreciated.

You probably need to update the camera raw plugin to 5.7:

CR2 (Raw) files in CS4

Hey all, I seem to have ran into some trouble when trying to read .CR2 files with CS4. I've downloaded Camera Raw 5.7 and I've checked the list of compatable devices and it includes my camera (Canon Powershot 12). I'm trying to open through Photoshop itself, not through Bridge. I've also updated through Help->Updates, with no change.
The error message I get is "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document".
I'm a novice with the software, so if there's any info I've missed off that I should include then just ask.
Thanks in advance.

As you have noted, there is no Canon PowerShot <anything>12 in the Camera Raw 5.7 list:
http://www.adobe.com/special/photoshop/camera_raw/Camera_Raw_5.7_ReadMe.pdf
The DNG converter may be a better way to go than shooting JPEGs... With the DNG converter, you convert your raw files to .DNG files, which Photoshop CS4 / Camera Raw 5.7 can open. You retain all the quality advantages and conversion control of shooting Raw images but with one extra step required.
