Deleting iMovie and Digital Camera (raw)

I don't do ANY raw digital camera shots or use iMovie.  These two programs seem to draw more updates than anything else in OS X.  I'm wondering if I can delete them and if so, would I lose any thing other than these 2 programs. 

The Raw Camera support is not a separate program but is part of the OS. The file is not really all that large in the scheme of things and removing it might impact the operation of your system.
I would strongly suggest you don't do it. It use to be possible to ignore particular updates, not sure if it is still possible given the whole App Store thing.
iMovie is a different story. It is a separate application and removing it will not impact the system.

  • Problem with Aperture 2 and Digital Camera Raw Compatability update 3.1

    Has anyone using Aperture 2 experienced problems with the Digital Camera Raw Compatability update 3.1. It may be purely coincidence but, since downloading this on March 3, I get the dreaded red screen and unsupported image format on my previously downloaded and edited RAW photos. I use a Pentax k-7 with which, once set up, I have had no problems until now!
    Please - any help would be very gratefully received

    That probably explains why any checks that your computer did to see if the Camera Raw update was okay to apply didn't stop it. You should probably contact Apple and explain that they broke something that was working fine previously.
    A few people have reported backing off Camera Raw 3.1 and going back to Camera Raw 3.0 for now. This note is one of the ones I've found describing how to do that, if you wish to try that. Or, you could head down the path Apple means to lead you on and upgrade to Aperture 3.

  • IMovie and Digital Camera Recording

    I was able to use a digital video camera as a passthrough to burn copies of old family film (VHS). I am running OS 10.9 and iMovie 10.0.1 and can't get any recorded video. It says it is recording, but I am not getting any available clips from it. Please help.

  • Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 3.12 and later can not be installed on OSX 10.6.8.

    Hi
    I bought a new Canon EOS 5D mark 3 and noticed that my MacBook Pro with OSX 10.6.8 can not handle the new raw files.
    Searching google shown that I need Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 3.12 or later.
    So I tried with 3.12, 3.13 and 3.14, but all failed during installation with error: "Dieses Update unterstützt nur Aperture 3 und iPhoto 9."
    Hmmm
    Checking iPhoto ...
    About IPHOT shows "Iphoto '09 version 8.1.2 (424)"
    So I've updated Iphoto with version 9.2.1 (which I found matching my OSX after stepping down from highest version down ..... Apple is here not really supporting users here .......)
    Unfortunately this is only an update.
    So I need to install first a newer Iphoto version.
    Iphoto 11 I can buy in the app store, but I can not install it on OS/X 10.6.8 .....
    Lost!
    How do I get my raw files of 5Dm3 visible in OSX 10.6.8 ???????
    Any help welcome
    Thx
    Wolfgang

    I maintain up to date my system, yet I have from time to time when I take RAW picture issues in iPhoto not reading them.  Today, looking for another issue I came across this update and I was hopping it would resolve my issues with the RAW photos from my Pentax K-30.
    The error:
    Installer quit unexpectedly.
    Click Reopen to open the app again. Click Report to see more detail information and send to Apple.

    This laptop cannot be upgraded further without hindering its performance.  Hence, I need to keep the version of iPhoto that I currently have.
    Thank you for your response.

    Those of you who have already imported "unsupported" photos into Aperture (i.e. Nikon D600) photos, simply choose Photos->Reprocess Original after installing this update (and restarting Aperture), and the photo will then show up.
    Aperture Expert has a little summary too:
    http://www.apertureexpert.com/tips/2012/10/24/digital-camera-raw-compatibility-u pdate-401-for-aperture-3-a.html

    I cannot fathom why a RAW update is not compatible with all versions of Aperture 3. This is forced redundancy in my opinion. Not happy...
    I understand that this is annoying for you, but it is part of the redesign of MacOS to make it more efficient and not to waste disk space on redundant installations.
    The recent raw update - as I see it - is an update to Mac OS X 10.8.x, not to Aperture. Since Mac OS X Lion Apple has started to migrate the raw support directly to the OS, so they do not need to install the raw support as update to many different applications. I have not checked yet - is this update included in Lion as well? I sincerely hope so.
    Send feedback to Apple that you need this upgraded raw support also available in Snow Leopard.

  • How do I reboot my MacBook Air? It says software is being installed; digital camera RAW compatibility and safari

    I am trying to get rid of this "Installation Alert" window.  I tried to force quit all and reboot, but it says "Your computer can't be restarted now, because software is being installed."  Below that it says "Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update and Safari are being installed.  Interrupting the install Amy damage your computer.  You can restart when the install is complete". It has a progress bar below showing it being 80% complete, but it just hangs there.  Now safari is going crazy.

    Then try holding down the Power button for 5-10 seconds until your computer shuts down. Wait one minute then:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.

  • Why i cannot update the digital camera RAW COMPATIBILITY UPDTE 5.0.4 AND ALWAYS ASK TO UPDATE IT WITHOUT UPDATING

    why i cannot update the digital camera RAW COMPATIBILITY UPDATE IN MY macbook pro with retina display and always ask me to update it without success

    toniak61 wrote:

    Because something is wrong.  Most likely, either:
    (1) your Mac OS X Startup disk is damaged and you need to repair or reinstall OS X,
         - or -
    (2) you are not following the correct update workflow and should use the help from this Apple article. 
    For instance, if you are trying to update via  > Software Update..., restart Mac and download and install the Download Center version: Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 5.04.

  • Since Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 4.03 Aperture no longer supports by 20D CR2 images. Is this a known problem? And when it going to be fixed?

    Has anyone else run into this problem since the update?

    The Raw support for Canaon EOS 20D is built directly into the Mac OS X, since Mac OS X Lion, see:
    OS X Lion: Supported digital camera RAW formats: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4757
    OS X Mountain Lion: Supported digital camera RAW formats: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5371
    This is independent of Aperture. What is the problem? Do you get "unsupported image format" error messages?

  • Aperture 3.4.4, Digital camera raw 4.0.5 cannot be installed

    On my late 2007 Imac I run OSX 10.8.3 and Aperture 3.4.4. While installing Digital Camera Raw 4.05 I get the message Aperture version 3.4 or later, or iPhoto version 9.4 or later, is required to install this update after which the installation aborts.
    I still had iPhoto 7.1.5 on my machine which I haven't used since 2008 which I decided to delete, but that did not help.
    IMO the install programm should just work as it says you need either the correct Aperture OR iPhoto version, not both .
    But anyway, what can I do to enable the update to work without doing a clean install of ML or buying a product I never use? Is there still some kind of iPhoto residu?
    BTW, the last version of DCR I tried to install was 4.0.2. This had the same issue, but I let go of that one. I don't know what my current version is.
    Kind regards,
    Martin

    I have all my Photo applications including Aperture in a separate map
    The subfolder explains it. That is a problem in Lion and Mt. Lion. These operating systems rely on the applications being installed directly in the Applications folder.
    However, you could  group your applications by creating folders in the Launchpad. Simply dragging the applications in the Lauchpad on top of each other will create subfolders there and you can see them all grouped there and launch them after double clicking the folder. That is Lion's and Mt. Lion's way to launch applications from folders.
    These screenshots show my folders for Photography apps and Music applications. Double clicking reveals the folder contents for launching.

  • Digital Camera RAW update 2.1 (requires 10.5.3) XSi/450D support:

    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/digitalcamerarawcompatibilityupdate21.htm l
    Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 2.1
    About Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 2.
    This update extends RAW file compatibility for Aperture 2 and iPhoto ’08 for the following cameras:
    Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi/Kiss Digital x2/450D
    Epson R-D1
    Leaf AFi 7
    Leaf AFi 6
    Leaf AFi 5
    Pentax K200D
    Pentax K20D

    Firstly, the best method I have found (superior to Adobe Import/Convert/Export) is to install the software from the A300 CD - I know, blasphemy. Anyhow, you can delete all except for the RAW Image Converter, which lets you do raw editing, its decent, and then export into whatever file type and size that is convenient for you, though its not the same as native Raw support, I know.
    Quirks: Not many, its a great camera, I've had mine for about a month and a half now. The AF Assist light drains battery like an electric car, and I can't say that I totally appreciate the inability to invert the focus ring direction. Ergonomics whilst wearing glasses is mediocre at best and your screen will get dirty - you'll have to deal with it. Otherwise, its absolutely an amazing camera, DO NOT RETURN YOURS!!! As you can see, there are a few quirks, but if I were to write down its positives above cameras prices three times as much, the list would take up pages. keep it, its too good to care for the little things like that.

  • Can't install Digital Camera Raw Compatibility Update 2.2

    Software Update wants to install Digital Camera Raw Compatibility Update 2.2, but it always fails, saying: "The update “Digital Camera Raw Compatibility Update” can’t be saved. You do not have appropriate access privileges. The Installer package has been moved to the Trash. To try again, open the package from the Finder."
    I've tried doing Repair Permissions in Disk Utility, but this has not helped. I'm using Mac OS X 10.5.5, all other recent updates have gone in fine.

    I had the same problem. Deleting the contents of the HD/library/Updates worked.
    Never the less I noticed that the permission set was different:
    Original permission set: admin R&W, admin R only, everyone R only.
    I also followed the Alias and found two files with the same permissions.
    Re-downloading (via software update) revealed a new permission set:
    (Me) R&W, Admin R&W, everyone Read only
    In both the alias and the two files downloaded. Note that (Me) denotes your user with administrator access.
    I believe that, since the update was downloaded automatically, the permissions were mismatched and instead of adding a system R&W privileges it added a second Admin Read only permission.
    Adding an administrator user with read and write permissions should solve the problem (as long as you authenticate as that particular administrator when prompted for intall authorization).

  • Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 2.2 - White Balance Temperature

    Prior to downloading the Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 2.2 I was importing RAW photos without a problem. Now all my photos are imported with a temperature of 2500K. I have a second computer on which this update hasn't been loaded and photos load with the proper temperature setting. When I load photos in Photoshop the temperature is indicated correctly. My DSLR is a fairly old Canon D60. Any suggestions?

    Mark:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can downgrade to 2.1 as described in this post:
    Source:http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8142169#8142169

    Date: Wednesday, September 24, 2008 7:26:47 PM
    This might work (from Clem who figured it out):
    Delete the file: System/Library/CoreServices/RawCamera.bundle then (re)install the previous version.
    Get the previous version here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/digitalcamerarawcompatibilityupdate21.htm l
    Restart your computer.
    Althought the fix was for correcting the problem of not being able to import at all it does give a means of downgrading to 2.1.
    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 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 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: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • "Pink Hue" after updating to Digital Camera RAW 4.08

    Hello,
    Anyone else is getting "Pink Hue" in Preview (Quick Look and Preview app) for RAW images on OSX 10.8.4 after updating to Digital Camera RAW 4.08 ?
    The Thumbnails of the pictures are showing up fine, and I'm not facing this issue on my other Mac running Mac OSX 10.7.5 (MacBook Mid 2010).
    Thank you..

    UPDATE: I have contacted Apple Care, they asked me to delete RawCamera.bundle and RawCameraSupport.bundle  from /System/Library/CoreServices then install Digital Camera Raw 4.07 from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1666?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    RAW pictures are showing up normally now, it appears to be a bug. They sent a request of this to the engineering team.
