.CR2 Files not recognized by Photoshop, Bridge, or iPhoto

I am a photographer shooting in Raw with my Canon Rebel T1i. I used to Import the images into iPhoto for editing and organization. But a few moths ago while importing the images (usually shows a preview of the photos) It just showed black... Then when i tried to edit the photos they wouldn't load. I can see the thumbnails inside of iPhoto but when I go to edit them... they wont load. So I tried to open the images using Bridge&Photoshop... I imported new images from my SD card into Bridge... the thumbnails of the images don't show up. It just shows white with  a shutter on it... and it says 'file name'.CR2
When I double click on the images (supposed to open the image in Photoshop RAW ) Photoshop opens, looks like its about to start... then says "photoshop does not recognize this type of file."
Im not sure what to do... I've been looking around on different forums and it looks like I may be missing a Driver or some kind of Plug-in... But i dont know how to find out what Im missing or where to get it... Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Keith, Keith, Keith…
What part of not supported don't you understand?
If a camera is not supported by the latest version of ACR, it will not be supported by the free Adobe DNG Converter either. 
ACR and the DNG Converter are always released in tandem and they support the same camera models.

  • CR2 Files Not Recognized in Photoshop CS5

    Hello!
    I've been having an issue trying to get a few cr2 files to open in CS5. I have about 800 cr2 files and all will open but about 100. I can't figure out what the issue is with this group of images compared to the rest. They won't open in Bridge or Lightroom 3 either. Any thoughts or ideas on what I could do to remedy this issue?
    Thanks for the help! I included a screenprint of the message I receive when trying to open one of the images.
    Thanks,
    Ashley

    Worse that being screwed, is not knowing what is wrong so you can't fix it without guessing any maybe not guessing right.  Use a new CF card use a card-reader and maybe the situation won't happen, again, is the best you can do going forward.
    As far as what to do for the photos from this set, if the card has not been reused completely, again, then you can try recovering the photos off the card, to see if any photos from the batch that doesn't work, remain, and see if they copy off any better the second time.  If they do copy off ok, then there is likely something wrong with the transfer process and less likely that it is the CF card.
    The software I've used when I've accidentally deleted photos off the card when I shouldn't have, is PhotoRescue from www.DataRescue.com  I have one of the older versions so I'm not sure what it corresponds to with the newer set.  It costs money, but you can run a scan of the card, first, to see if it finds thumbnails of the images it is going to recover, but you have to pay before you can actually save off the photos it has found.
    If you haven't used the card at all since you discovered the problem, meaning you've merely moved the photos off of it and it is now empty, perhaps even formatted, but no low-level formatted, then you have a good chance of being able to recover most of the photos--basically undelete them.  If you've shoot more photos over the top of the deleted ones or low-level formatted the card, the chance is lower than you'll be able to get the photos back.

  • CR2 files not recognized by CS6 or Bridge

    My CS6 and Bridge don't recognize the raw CR2 files from my Canon 5D mark III. Everything is updated, I downloaded the latest plug in, what should my next step be to fix this? Thank you.

    What operating system are you running:  Win Vista/7/8 OSX 10.7/8/9.x?
    You do need ACR 7.1 or higher for the 5D.3, so the issue is to get a newer ACR plug-in installed.

  • New Nikon Df camera RAW files not recognized in Bridge and Photoshop.

    New Nikon Df camera RAW files not recognized in Bridge and Photoshop.  Is there a fix?  Surely Adobe make a mistake and not keep up with Nikon.

    I looked at the current list http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html and did not see the Nikon DF listed.
    Would post in ACR forum and see if they know anything more.  http://forums.adobe.com/community/cameraraw

  • .RAF files not recognized in bridge but PS ok.  Patch 7.1 installed.

    .RAF files not recognized in bridge but PS ok.  Patch 7.1 installed.  Anyone know the fix?

    To me it seems related to your Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) converter. Clue inhere is you only miss the Raw files and have no problems in seeing other formats like jpeg and tiff.
    The screenshot you delivered is from the wrong library, however, this same library (the one on system level) also is the location where you should be able to view the correct version of your ACR plugin. The path: library (same as per your screenshot)/Application support/ Adobe/ Plug ins/ CS6/ File Formats. inhere should be only one version of Camera Raw (called: "Camera Raw.plugin") and this should show version 8.3 (141).
    I'm not sure about your bridge version number, Bridge 5 comes with PSCS6 but my most recent version of Bridge is 5.0.2.4.
    Anyway, if you have only one ACR (8.3) installed in the above mentioned path then you might want to try to delete the Bridge plist file and Bridge cache file manually.
    For this you have to Quit Bridge and find the user library (by default hidden, use menu Go in Finder and press option key to reveal).
    Inhere find the plist file (user(your user name) / library / Preferences  and inhere find and manually delete the file called: "com.adobe.bridge5.plist"
    The in same user library find Bridge Cache. User/Library/Caches/Adobe/Bridge CS6. Inhere are 2 files, the adobe Bridge plug in cache and the folder called Cache. delete (or move outside libray) both items.
    The restart Bridge (If needed also again hold option key to reset preferences) and this will create fresh files for the previous deleted items, leaving you with an almost out of the box factory set version of Bridge.

  • Camera RAW, file not recognized after import and migration, Aperture 2.1

    Hi,
    I have recently purchased a 1DMKIII and am constantly getting "file not recognized" after I import and even after migrating RAW files. My 1DS MK1 RAW files have no issues. The RAW files render just fine using CS4 bridge. Any ideas here on a fix? Other than ditching Aperture (not desireable)
    Thanks,

    If your library is in the standard layout of an iTunes folder containing an iTunes Media folder (and you've already copied over the media) then you can simply copy the iTunes library files and album artwork folder across to the new machine recreating the same layout. If the media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder then see make a split library portable for a way to get the library into a portable form, after which you can copy over the library files.

    The Canon 6D id NOT supported by ACR 6.7.1. It was supported for the very first time in ACR 7.3 whch requires CS6 to run.
    Therefore you will never be able to open raw CR2 files from the 6D directly in CS5.
    If you do not plan on upgrading, you can download the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.3 (always use the latest version, it's not tied to your version of Photoshop at all), install it like any other application and then run it on each batch of CR2 files to convert them to raw DNG files that you can then open in your version of Photoshop and ACR.
