Difficulties Editing Nikon D7100 NEF Files In PE10.

I recently purchased a Nikon D7100 and uploaded NEF files for editing. Unfortunately I am experiencing difficulties with them and cannot. Format will not open in PE10. Is anyone else experiencing the same? Does anyone know of a fix?

If this is a brand new camera files than I am afraid the only way to edit them are as follows:
1) Buy PSE12 if you can afford;
2) Use the software that came with your camera to export the files so that PSE can understand them;
3) Use Adobe's DNG converter from this link:

Elements 11: Updated to ACR 7.4 but unable to open Nikon D7100 NEF Files

Elements 11: Windows 7: Updated to ACR 7.4.0.137 but still unable to open Nikon D7100 NEF Files

The Nikon Transfer that came with your camera should be ok, but if you’re using an older one, then it can change things in the raw files’ metadata that makes them unrecognizable to Adobe software.
There is a utility for fixing any NEFs corrupted by Nikon Transfer:

How do i open nikon D7100 nef files in pse10

I cant open my NEF/RAW files for the Nikon D7100 on Photoshop Elements 10 is there a way to do this

Your version of Photoshop Elements will not open D7100 images directly. Support wasn't added until Photoshop Elements 11 in Camera Raw 7.4.
Adobe stopped updating older versions to be able to read raw files from newer cameras whenever they released a new major version of Photoshop Elements. Thus, the version you have is no longer receiving raw file compatibility updates and will never directly be able to open your raw files.
You can check this yourself:
First you need to determine when Adobe released support for your new camera in Photoshop Elements. To do that, look at these two pages. You'll want to find out the earliest version of Camera Raw that can support your camera, then what version of Photoshop Elements can run that version of Camera Raw.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
Since your version of Photoshop Elements cannot support your camera directly, you can download and install the latest version of the free Adobe DNG Converter, which can take your raw files as input and put out DNG format files, which your version of Photoshop can open.
Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
The DNG converter DOES work, and you will be able to open the converted DNG files with your version of Photoshop Elements, but if you want maximal quality from your raw files (not to mention the convenience and ease of use of directly opening your raw files) you'll want the latest version of Photoshop Elements. Adobe has made substantial improvements in raw conversion quality in recent years.

Elements 9 won't open Nikon D7100 NEF files

I recently upgraded from a Nikon 7000 to a Nikon D7100 DSLR camera. Historically I was able to open and process NEF files in Photoshop Elements 9 from my D7000. But now it will not open those files. I clicked on the Help/Update link and it says my version is fully updated. What do I have to do to be able to open these NEF files as I did before with those files from my D7000?
Thanks...RDK

Support for the D7100 was added to ACR 7.4 so you'll need PSE11 or later to open them directly. You can either use the Nikon software to convert them or the free Adobe DNG converter to convert them to DNG files that PSE9 can open.
Cheers,
Neale

I have Ltrm 3.6 and Photoshop CS6. I have updated them but cannot copy my Nikon D7100 NEF files to my Windows XP computer.

Is there a download that will let me use my new camera NEF files on my old computer?

You need LR 4.4 or newer to work with photos from a D7100 natively.
You can download, install and run the DNG Converter 4.4 or newer to convert a folder of NEFs to DNGs and those DNGs will open in an older version of LR.
The DNG Converter is available no this page. Keep in mind that the latest versions require a newer OS than XP but older versions should be ok:

PS Elements 10 and D7100 NEF Files

How do I open Nikon D7100 NEF files with Photoshop Elements 10?

Yes, it will never be upgraded. If your camera is not included in ACR 6.7 or earlier, you will need to buck up and buy new stuff. Either that or stick with legacy cameras.
Doesn't it seem odd that consumers will invest in an expensive camera with out giving thought to the software they need to go with it?
At some point you can expect ACR to move to an 8.x series. Elements 11 uses the 7.x series. You can assume there will be an Elements 12 release in the Fall. It won't be until then that you will know what ACR versions will be used. If you buy a camera released in 2014, odds are you will need to get 2014 software too.
I went through a series of new cameras and camcorders since I bought Elements 9. To get the best out of each camera and the counterpart Elements capabilities I bought both 10 and 11. There was also the expense of books and online training courses.
I am now very pleased with the combination of software, computer, cameras, printer and display screens I have. I have taken an oath to myself to not mess with the balance between it all and devote my efforts to mastering my collection.
Adobe is not going to update ACR for Elements 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, etc either! Can you imagine what it would take to make ACR backward compatible to so many versions?
In fact, Adobe is switching their pro strategy to online "rental" from the Creative Cloud which will make the entire "keep it current" process easier for those that make their living with imaging software.

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?

Just imported picture library from Aperture - Can't view Nikon D800 NEF files in LR5.7.1

Just imported a large picture library from Aperture to LR 5.7.1- Can't view Nikon D800 NEF files in LR5. The projects and files loaded - but no thumbnail view of the image

I have a Nikon D50 nef on my desktop. Double-clicking on it opens Photoshop, which launches Adobe Camera Raw. If you get that far and can make adjustments in the ACR panel, you are fine. That's what opens first.
Then you click "Open" in ACR and your nef opens in Photoshop and the document tab on top gives the .nef extension. You make your edits there, but if you close Photoshop, you won't save it as nef, it won't be in the Save file list. You save it as psd for example and close Photoshop.
You now have a nef with develop settings on your desktop and the psd you saved out of Photoshop.
All perfectly normal as J.J. said, Photoshop will edit the nef file, but it will be saved in a format other than nef.

Nikon D7100 NEF support

Currently I have CS5 and have to use a conversion program to convert the NEF files from a Nikon D7100 to a DNG file. Does Photoshpo CC already support D7100 NEF files?
Thanks

There's an Adobe page that definitively identifies what versions go with what versions of Camera Raw:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
Note that each version of Photoshop is compatible with a specific set of versions of Camera Raw. For example, Photoshop CS5 used only Camera Raw 6.x, while Photoshop CS6 used Camera Raw 7.x, and CC uses 8.x.

CS4 will not open Nikon D7000 NEF files; Is there a DNC that will open them?

I have CS4 and Light Room 2
Apparently there is no Camera Raw update for the new Nikon D7000 NEF files for CS4.
I therefore down loaded the Adobe Digital Negative Converter Verson 6.3.0.79 which is compatible with Camera Raw 5.4 or later.
Using that DNC, when I do step 1, "Select the images to convert" I get the message "No items match your search". It apparently is not recongnizing the D7000 NEF files.
Is there another DNC that will open and convert the D7000 NEF files?

I just bought the d7000 yesterday and was experiencing the same issue with cs4. I downloaded the DNG converter from adobe and selected the whole folder where the raw files were located (I was unable to select individual images) and it worked fine. It processed the files one by one with new name (without the $500 CS5 pricetag for now). The DNG files open in bridge and psd. Perhaps try selecting the folder? Good luck.

Can i open and edit nikon d810 raw files in lightroom 4.4

can i open and edit nikon d810 raw files in lightroom 4.4

No. Lightroom 4.x will never be able to open Raw files from the D810.
D810 support has only just been added to the RC version of Camera Raw 8.6. It is never retrospectively added into older versions.
Adobe Photoshop Camera Raw 8.6 RC for CC and CC 2014 Release Candidate | digital camera raw file support - Adobe Labs
Adobe will probably add D810 support to the next version of Lightroom.
Either way you'll have to upgrade to Lightroom 5 to be able to open D810 Raw files in Lightroom.

Raw plugin 8.2 doesn't open nikon d800 nef files in photoshop cc and bridge

raw plugin 8.2 doesn't open nikon d800 nef files in photoshop cc and bridge

How did you install the plugin? You may want to try reinstalling it or installing the dng converter, as that is what has the camera formats. ACR 8.2 is just the plugin for the mechanics of Camera raw. Normally they should both install, but sometime the converter doesn't.
