CS3 Camera RAW is used by Elements v6

Dear friends,
My computer has both Photoshop CS3 and Elements v6 installed. I am on a Mac platform.
When I am teaching Photoshop Elements to students I want them to see the version of Camera RAW which will appear when they select File/Open with Bridge. On my computer, when I make this choice, I get the version of Bridge and the RAW converter intended for CS3. I believe it appears differently from what my students will see when they make this choice on their computers at home.
Am I correct? If so, how can I prevent Elements from using portions of CS3?
I have checked preferenes in Elements but can't find the right choice.
Thanks for your help.
Mary Lou

There are differences. You won't get the Tone Curve, HSL/Grayscale, Split-toning, Lens Corrections, etc. tabs.
And you won't get to choose a color space and file size (but you can select 8-bit or 16-bit). Elements Raw has the red-eye tool, but not the dust/retouch tool. It is also missing the color-sampler tool (but does have the white balance tool).

  • Can't install Camera RAW 6.3 into Elements 9

    I have downloaded the installer for 6.3 but when I go to install it, I get this message. "Some updates failed to install."  When it tells me to fix the problems below, all it says is:  installation failed!
    I need this update in order to open RAW images from my Canon Powershot S95.
    I am working with Elements 9 on both an iMac running OS 10.6.8 and onto a new MacBook Pro.
    I have spent an hour reading everything I can and haven't been able to find any place to send this question to Adobe by email.  The phone system for help has more than a half-hour of wait time.
    Can someone figure out this problem?
    Cherie

    Thank you. I couldn't find the Mac update section at the Adobe site by 
    using the various search options.
    But,
    The new download 6.5 installed without trouble. However, the "open with" 
    command still prompted Elements to respond with an "Unrecognized file type" 
    error, even though Elements was not listed as the default application.
    Trying to open a nef file within Actrobat still showed the nef files grayed
    out as unopenable with the application.
    I tried to do the manual copying of the camera raw.plugin from the Assets 2
    folder as you suggested. H owever it does not appear to be used in the 
    newer version (6.5). Instead, there is a Profiles directory containing two 
    further directories: CameraProfiles and LensProfiles.
    The CameraProfiles folder contains a series of further folders for various 
    camera types, and each folder had a number of .dcp files. I can't find a
    "camera  raw.plugin" anywhere within Assets 2.
    So, in sum:
    1) The disk image Elements9CameraRaw-6.5-mul-AdobeUpdate downloaded from 
    Adobe installs correctly.
    2) The default program type for .nef files was changed to Elements
    3) Elements will not open a .nef file either from "open with" or within the
    application selecting open from the menu.
    Hoping you can help me work around this problem.
    Thank you.

    How do I open Camera Raw dialogue box in Elements 11

    What version of mac os x are you using?
    It sounds like you set Enable to Camera Raw instead of setting Format to Camera Raw.
    Where it says Format, set that to All Readable Documents and for the most part you shouldn't have to change that.
    After you click on the jpeg file in the Open Dialog, set the Format to Camera Raw

  • Which version of camera raw will work with elements 9 and a Nikon D5100? How do I download photos to it?

    I have Photoshop Elements 9 and use a Nikon D5100.  I have downloaded camera raw 6.5 but cannot download photos to it.  Does camera raw start automatically or do I have to manual start it?

    That did I, thanks.

    Nope. DNG is backwards compatible John and imho works better in Adobe applications than CR2. Upgrade to PSE 11 or 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 7.4
    Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.4
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • CS3 Camera Raw Update

    I tried to to do a update from Photoshop CS3 for Camera Raw 4.4 and the DNG converter. It came back as no updates available. It this normal? Do I have get Camera Raw using the manual download process? I have always been able to get Camera Raw updates using the update methid previousy.

    The ACR update for Photoshop will never be immediately available for the menu 'Help=>Updates". When ACR4.4 was released there was an implication that the 'help-update' would be available the next week, but I believe the problems associated with this version and its DNG converter may have affected "how it's supposed to work".
    Regarding whether the problems affect you, see this information:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2008/03/important_lightroom_14_and_cam.html
    If you absolutely need to update for (eg) using a new camera, you can download from here:

    Read the installation instructions carefully!

  • PS CS3, Camera Raw 4.6 Update and Nikon D810 NEF File Reading Issue

      Currently Have Photoshop CS3 & Adobe Bridge CS3 2.1.1.9.
    According to Adobe, Camera Raw 4.6 supports Nikon D810 NEF files.  I have downloaded Camera Raw 4.6 Update. When
    I try to open Nikon D810 NEF files, I get Photoshop CS3  error that says
    "cannot complete request your because it is not the right kind of
    document. These NEF files wont open in Adobe Bridge at all.  What am I doing wrong?

    Hey,
    Before I purchased, let me get your thoughts on another option that just occurred to me which involves:
    1)Editing my D810 NEF files in LR 5.6, which I have, then exporting/saving the edited files as JPEGs.
    2) Doing any additional editing, as necessary (i.e. that might require layering or selections..etc) , with the JPEGs  with Bridge or PS CS3. 
    This method wont involve any additional software purchase now.. right?    Am I missing anything.   here?    Since my final output to my customers are JPEGs any way, wont this work?   Will I be at any disadvantage.   Am I missing anything.   here?

  • Camera Raw 4.6 and Elements 6.0

    Installed Camera Raw 4.6 into Elements 6.0 & 5.0, but Elements 6.0 will not recognize Sigma Dp1 X3F files, but 5.0 will. The DNG converter works. Any clues to what could be going on
    Jack

    > why Im getting those bright red spots in the lighter areas of the photo.
    That's the clipping warning, which you can turn off by clicking on the triangle at the upper right hand corner of the histogram in the ACR preview. That means
    your image is overexposed and all those red spots represent areas that are
    totally blown out.
    You can try to rescue them with the Exposure and Recovery slider.
    You really need to read up on Camera Raw. You desperately need

    Olympus OM-D E-M1 support was added in Camera Raw 8.3
    The question still is - Is there a time frame for Adobe to update its Camera Raw for this camera?
    The question is which version of Camera Raw do you have installed and which operating system are you running?

  • Opening iPhoto 8 JPG file with Photoshop CS3 Camera Raw editor

    I have all my photos stored in my iPhoto 8 library. I have both RAW (CR2) and JPG images. iPhoto 8 opens the CR2 images with Photoshop Raw editor, but I want to use iPhoto to open JPG images with the Photoshop Raw editor using Camera Raw.
    How do I do this without having to export JPG images and opening from Photoshop?
    Thanks!
    SP

    SP:
    If you're trying to use the RAW editor on a jpg it can't be done. It will only work on the RAW file. If you are wanting to edit the RAW file from within iPHoto with CS3 then set CS3 to be the editor of choice in iPhoto's general preferences. Next go to the Advanced iPhoto preference pane and select the option "User RAW when using external editor". That will open the RAW file with Photoshop's raw editor. When you finish you MUST save the new file to the Desktop and import as a new file.
    For some general info on using Photoshop with iPhoto:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
    If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    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 versions) 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 or later), 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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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.
    NOTE: iPhoto 8's new option in it's rebuild library window, "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" may make this tip obsolete. We'll know when users have occasion to use it and see if that's the case.

  • Adobe Camera Raw Plugin for Photoshop Elements 4

    I have downloaded the latest Raw Plugin for Elements 4 successfully and have gone through all the steps except i havent installed Raw Plugin as yet, i would like to know if i have to unzip the files in the downloaded Plugin before i install into Elements 4 or install as is and unzip when it's installed into Elements 4 ? Many thanks Lloyd fro OZ

    In order to use the new plugin in Photoshop Elements 4, you will need to run the 4.0.1 Updater. Support for this version of ACR is the ONLY feature of the 4.0.1 updater.
    Unfortunately, the new ACR plugin came out before we could get the PSE 4.0.1 updater out, so we need to do a workaround for the time being.
    Until the Updater gets posted (which we expect to be on or before May 20), you can use the converter to convert your Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8 files to RAW, then use them in the program.
    The Converter can be found at: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3604
    Sorry for the delay between the ACR posting and the PSE Mac updater posting.

  • Camera RAW Editing with Photoshop Elements 7.0

    I am editing Canon Camera RAW format images with Photoshop Elements 7.0.
    When I try to use the Clone Stamp option, an error message indicates that I need to change to 8 bit color to continue. I am also aware that some feel that 8 bit color is good enough. I would like to keep the 16 bit color.
    Will upgrading to Photoshop Elements 8.0 allow me to keep 16 bit color?
    Thanks
    Bob  AZ

    No, as far as 16 bit support, pse8 is pretty much the same as pse7.
    Pse9 is due out within a few months, so who knows whether more 16 bit support
    will be added or not.
