No. You need to upgrade your software. ACR 6.3 requires PSE 9 or CS4/ CS5 products. Check this: Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras

Adobe photoshop elements 11 won't read my canon T5 raw CR2 files.

adobe photoshop elements 11 won't read my canon T5 raw CR2 files.
why?
need help!
Solved!

Hi Zach.
Sorry to say but Elements 12 came out several months before your camera. Adobe stops updating camera raw files for old software editions so that people have to buy new versions of the software when they get a new camera. It happened to me with LR3 when I got a new camera.
There are works rounds but they are a lot of extra steps and I think you would be converting the files to Some format other than RAW (tiff?) and which I am not sure will perform the same.
I think you just need to get a newer version of Elements.

Can't import Canon G12 RAW images into iPhoto 6.0.6

unable to import Canon G12 RAW images into iPhoto 6.0.6 (Mac OS-X (10.5.8) - any ideas?

You'll need to install the Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 3.5 - Search the Support/Downloads site for that.
It still may not work. Iphoto 6 is an elderly piece of software now and predates your camera by several years. If it doesn't work you'll need to update to iPhoto 09 or later.

Import screen cannot enlarge preview thumbnail from Canon G15 raw CR2 file

Lightroom 4.3 import screen does not seem to be able to enlarge for better viewing the preview thumbnail from a Canon G15 raw CR2 file?

HI,
I do not know the answer, but I would expect, that Lr only displays the embeded jpeg preview of your raw files. And I think, that the previews are small. You can use exiftool , exiftoolgui to see what's the dimension of your previews.

Canon G12 raw

How do I read Canon G12 raw files? I downloaded DNG converter 6.3. Still can't read the files.

6.3 should cover the G12, but there is no reason not to use the most up to date version.

Canon G12 RAW files not recognized

The DNG converter V6.3 I just downloaded and installed does not recognize RAW files from my Canon G12. Any idea why?

I read through those linked pages, but they didn't give me any solution.
After nosing around through a LOT of sites on Adobe's site (why aren't pages dated, took forever to find the most up to date or pertinent pages)…I found this one that was slightly related, but worked for me.
http://helpx.adobe.com/bridge/kb/acr-84-bridge-cs6-metadata.html
I had to download this zip, and manually place the plugin as directed, and now, After Effects CS6 will recognize my CR2 raw files from my canon 5D3.
Thank you for the help, it led me in the right direction, but the link above was the actual solution I found that worked!!

IPhoto Canon G12 RAW

Hello,
did anyone know why iPhoto did not know the RAW files from my Canon G12 ?
JPEG files are no problem.

Apple needs to add support for Canon's G12 CR2 files. They recently did include support in iPhoto and Aperture 3 for the S95 CR2 files. I suspect they will come out with support for the G12 soon ([this camera came out approximately a month after the S95). Patience is all you need. In addition if you search this forum you can find several work arounds until they do which will allow you to edit this files.
Apple always supports all the RAW formats for Canon and Nikon files. It does take some time since they have to reverse engineer each new file format.......the RAW format is based on capturing 100% of the information recorded by the camera's sensor. Every time a camera manufacturer comes out with a new camera they tweak the sensor and therefor change the file format. Since the sensors are an important part of the improvements in image quality for each new camera, they treat this data as a "trade secret" and won't share the details with Apple, Photoshop etc. This forces Apple to have to reverse engineer their support every time a new camera RAW file format comes out.
Apple will include the G12 RAW files in Aperture and iPhoto.

DNG 4.2 and Canon G9 raw CR2 problem

I have been unsuccesful getting the 4.2 DNG to convert the CR2 Canon G9 files, getting an error message that the file type is not supported. Running Windows XP Home. Any ideas as to how I can fix this. Thanks, Jeff

I just helped my friend with the Canon G9 Raw file won't open and recognized on Mac Computer.
Problem when try to open or drag the Raw image (*.CR2 File), I got an error message says the file type is either not supported or corrupted, also the file in the browser are all grayed out, means can't click & select & open. So I re-install the software just to make sure the software is fine.
The software comes with the camera is easy to install, here is the thing I was stumbled but figured it out.
1. Use browser to find the raw file.
2. click to select the file
3. go to Menu Bar under "File" there is a section you'll see "Process Raw File" or something like that, then you are done, from there you can edit and open a Raw file.
My impression towards to the raw image quality and canon software: The software interface is not as nice compare to PS Element 4 Raw Plug-in, especially there is not button for "Processing Raw" on the browser window that you have to go to File >.. , I hope this is just for Mac users or I have to say the software is silly.

Canon G12 Raw in PS Elements 6.0

I have found that LR 2.7 will not support G12 Raw files.
What is the situation with PS Elements?
Which is the earliest version that will support G12 Raw files?
Will the necessary version of Elements run on OS 10.4.11
Will LR 3.3 run on OS 10.4.11?
Mac OS 10.4 to OS 10.6 on various computers.
Canon 40D G10 G12
LR 2.7 (but now forced to upgrade to 3.3) & not pleased about it !

Problem with Canon G12 RAW file

I'm very disappointed because I can't use Lightroom with my new camera! I have this issue since LR 3.3. and CR 6.3 started to support Canon G12's raw file. Any raw file is decoded incorrectly, picture is grained, it has a lot of noise at any ISO (even 80 or 100). The defect is noticeable only at 100% zoom, not at 50% or other sizes.
I tried to do also a clean installation of LR 3.4.1 and CR 6.4.1 but the problem persists. (I use LR 64 bit on Windows 7 64 bit; with PS 12.1 64 bit I have the same problem)
Yes, the camera is ok, and with Canon Digital Photo Professional 3.10 all is perfect, the same picture is amazing.
Is there any solution please?
Thank you!
Davide

It may be that DPP knows how much default noise reduction to apply to your G12's raw images and Lightroom doesn't.
Can you adjust LR's noise reduction sliders to get a better image? If so, you could make that amount of reduction a default.
If that doesn't work for you, could you post a sample raw image somewhere that we could bring it into Lightroom and see what you are writing about?

Canon 40D RAW (CR2) Files import

I've Photoshop and Aperture. Cannot install Elements which would be my preference - so help needed here.
Also - I use iPhoto mostly in the latest Apple OS, yet I cannot import Canon 40D RAW files. I get an error message saying they could not be imported - import failed.
Help please.

Freshacre:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What version of PS Elements are you trying to install? I've installed the PSE 6 demo without any problem.
What type of files are you trying to import and from where?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

I am having trouble importing canon camera raw cr2

could not import RAW files from card reader i am useing a canon 50D and it produces CR@ files.
is iPhoto unable to process canon raw?

The Raw from very model of camera - that's model, not make - is different. The Cr2 your 50D produces is not the same as a CR2 from a 40D.
So, yes, iPhoto is able to process Canon Raws from supported cameras.
Your 50D is supported by 10.6 and iPhoto 11. Did you get any error messages when you tried to import?

PSE 12 and Canon 70d raw CR2 files

I have a new Canon 70d which came bundled with PSE 11, but PSE11 doesn't support the CR2 raw without converting to DNG. and then there are no thumbnails, which makes file handling a pain. Does PSE12 have support for the 70d CR2 files, and does it show the thubnails for either the CR2 or the converted DNG files?

I have updated these instructions for using ACR 8.3 in PSE12:
ACR 8.3 will work with PSE12 to open 70D files, but there is no installer, yet if ever, so you have to be a little devious to get things to all work. You also need to be on a Windows 7 or 8 since ACR 8.3 supposedly doesn't work on Vista or XP. I should also say that the process outlined below does work on my Windows 7 64-bit computer, but I also have PS-CS6 and PS-CC installed on it, so it is possible that ACR 8.3 is dependent on something that wouldn't exist on a computer with only PSE installed on it, but someone else will have to confirm that.
I was able to get 70D files to open in ACR 8.3 on PSE12 by doing the following:
Download the ACR 8.3 for Windows update for PS-CC via the direct download link on the Adobe Blog:
http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2011/03/keeping-photoshop-up-to-date.html#notconnected
Unzip this downloaded setup.zip to a folder somewhere.
Inside the files from that zip is a folder called payloads \ AdobeCameraRaw8.0All-031213015928. Note that this is the folder without x64 in the path. PSE12 is a 32-bit program so we need the 32-bit version of the plug-in.
Inside that folder is another ZIP called Assets1_1.zip so unzip it somewhere.
Inside Assets1_1.zip there is a file called 1003. This is the largest file in that zip and is the plug-in you need.
Copy this 1003 file into the existing PSE12 camera raw plug-in folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 12\File Formats or for a 32-bit Windows OS, into: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 12\File Formats
Rename the existing Camera Raw.8bi to Camera Raw_8bi_80 (in case something doesn't work and you need to rename it back, later).
Rename 1003 to Camera Raw.8bi
After these steps you have the ACR 8.3 plug-in installed in PSE12 but not the camera and lens profiles, so install those by downloading and installing the DNG Converter 8.3:

Canon 400d +raw(cr2) import(aperture 1.5)

hello,
i bought the new canon 400d a few days ago. i updated to aperture 1.5 a few minutes ago. does anyone now whats wrong with cr2-raw-images? aperture is telling me, that cr2 is not a supported format. (lightroom does cr2 by the way)
thx

I own a new XTi also. OS 10.4.8 does not yet support that camera's RAW files. CR2 files may have the same extensions but they are different for each different sensor. The 400d/XTi has a different sensor than the XT/350d. Unfortunately, the timing of Canon's release must have been after Apple had finalized the RAW camera updates for the recent update.
The RAW file support on Macs is at the OS level, not within Aperture or iPhoto. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether you have Aperture 1.1 or 1.5. Hopefully, Canon will get Apple to update soon or someone will write a hack that provides the translation.
Kind of stinks at this point. The Nikon D80 folks are in the same situation. How Lightroom has it this soon beats me.
