DNG Converter 7.1 won't open!

Can't open newly installed DNG Converter 7.1 on Tiger 10.4.11 MacPro, PS11.0.2, LR2.7. Adobe's DNG Converter 7.1 download page states that 7.1 is compatible with OS10.4. Works fine on MacBookPro running 10.5.8. Any ideas?

Here's that link I just mentioned:

I have Photoshop CS5 and a Nikon D 810 camera. I have downloaded Camera Raw 8.8 & DNG converter. I can neither open the raw files (.nef), nor process them with the DNG converter. What is going wrong?

I have Photoshop CS5 and a Nikon D 810 camera. I have downloaded Camera Raw 8.8 & DNG converter. I can neither open the raw files (.nef), nor process them with the DNG converter. What is going wrong? Thanks!

This is the last paragraph from my very first response to you, post #1 in this thread:
…Additionally, you need to install the DNG Converter, not just "download" it, and you need to launch it and run it on each folder of NEFs you wish to convert to raw DNGs. [emphasis added]

I cannot open images from my new NikonD3300 in Elements 11 , I have downloaded and installed CameraRaw 8.4 and DNG convertor but still won't open!

I wonder if anyone can help with the above question about Elements 11 and my not being able to open Raw images, I have tried downloading and installing Cmaera raw 8.4 and DNG convertor but still not opening have not had truoble with D200 or lumix G5. thanks Yvonne

The D3300 requires Camera Raw 8.4 but Camera Raw 8.4 is only compatible with Elements 12 and later.
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
Camera Raw 8.4 is not compatible with Elements 11 and never will be.
You'll have to either a) upgrade to Elements 12, or b) use the DNG converter to convert all D3300 Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in Elements 11.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
The D200 requires Camera Raw 3.3 (or later) and the Lumix G5 requires Camera Raw 7.2 (or later) both of which are compatible with Elements 11.

Adobe DNG Converter 5.7 won't recognize Canon T2i files (.CR2)

Just downloaded Adobe DNG Converter 5.7. I have a Canon T2i and my camera raw files (.CR2) are listed in the Converter but are faded and can't be selected. Does anyone know what is going on or have a similar experience?

Remember that the DNG Converter works on FOLDERS, not on individual files. If you are in the File > Open dialog box, make sure you're targeting the folder, not individual files.
Otherwise, use the Finder to drop file icons on the DNG Converter's icon.

After using DNG converter, Lightroom still won't recognize and import my photos...

I just started shooting with a Sony A6000 and couldn't import the photos due to compatibility issues with my current version of lightroom (4.4). After reading about it on the forums I found that I had to either download LR5 or use the DNG converter then import into LR. I opted for the free problem fix and downloaded DNG Converter v8.4 (compatible with Sony A6000). Now, after converting my freshly shot photos to DNGs, I've tried to import them into Lightroom through both the Copy and Move functions (because I like the file organization I've established through LR) but each time I end up with a dialogue box saying "Could not move a file to the requested location." When in the import window, LR shows previews of the images clearly. When converting to DNGs, I've ensured the photos are compatible with Camera RAW v7.1 and later (my LR has v7.4) and I've tried both embedding Fast Load Data and not... Also, I'm using a MacBook Pro OS X 10.9 if that makes any difference. Am I missing something? I don't see what the problem is... All I want to do is organize and edit my new photos from my new camera on LR without having to pay an additional $80 for the new LR just because I have a new camera...

This could be a permissions issue, especially if you are using a Mac computer. Make sure you have write permission for the folder you are trying to import into.

How can I open Nikon D5300 NEF RAW files in the DNG converter?

I have the latest version of the DNG converter, but it won't recognize my NEF files. I have a Nikon D5300, which is on the list of supported cameras. I have a 64 bit W7 computer.

You don't open in the DNG converter. You use it to batch convert, folder by folder, and the converted copies can then be opened in the ACR version you have.
Two things to watch: One, don't try to convert single files, it won't work. The DNG converter operates on folders. Two, set the compatibility level to the ACR version you have.
If it still doesn't work, the files may have been corrupted by an early version of Nikon Transfer (later versions fixed). There is a utility to "uncorrupt" them if that's the case (Google it).

.orf files won't open in CS2 (Olympus E-3)

I recently purchased an Olympus E-3 (previously owned E-330). I use CS2 and Windows XP Media. I am new to shooting RAW images and just got back from a trip where I shot RAW (.ORF) images.
I updated my DNG converter (Tried both 3.7 and 4.5) and Camera Raw to 3.7 (as that is the highest level supported by CS2). The list of supported cameras include the E-3. But I still get the error message that it can't complete your request because "it is not the right kind of document."
I try to use the DNG Converter, click on convert and get a message there was an "error parsing the image." So I am not able to convert the .orf files to .dng so I can open in ACR as instructed.
Since the E-3 should be supported in Camera Raw according to the adobe website, why am I getting this error message? I really enjoy the flexibility of photoshop Camera Raw and wish to continue. I am able to open the .orf files in Olympus Master 2.0 so I believe the files to be intact.
I have confirmed that the DNG Converter.exe and the Camera Raw file is installed according the Adobe instructions (removed old one, installed new on in the correct folders-Checked and Double Checked.
I rebooted the computer after install. I am still able to open the .orf files from my E-330 in photoshop. So I don't think PS is configured incorrectly and that Camera Raw is functioning.
What is the best and easiest way to open these files in Photoshop? I am stuck with a ton of .ORF images that I cannot open. Please help!

>Just to clarify: The DNG Converter does not get "installed". It's a stand-alone application to convert the raw files to DNG files first, which you then (later) open in ACR.
Semantics I guess. What I was saying was that I was using the DNG Converter 4.5 (the latest version) and ACR 3.7 (latest version for CS2) and it was in the correct folder according to the instructions that are on the Adobe download instructions. However, I was still following the procedure of trying to convert the .orf file using the DNG Converter, but no success. And since I was unable to convert to .dng, I was unable to attempt to use ACR.
However, Good news.
Since I did get a response that someone using the same configuration of E-3 and CS2 had no problems converting to .dng, I decided to once again check versions, folders, etc. and then reboot. Now everything is working.
Now I can convert the ORF files to DNG using DNG Converter 4.5, and then open those in ACR 3.7! (Same files, same version, same folder).
Who knows! Operator error - maybe- but I swear I repeatedly check and rebooted last night. Maybe I just held my mouth correctly on this reboot.
Again thank you for all your help. I just hope this helps someone else if they have the same issue. Mysteries...

I bought a canon EOS Rebel T5i. It came with photoshop elements 11. PS won't open my C2 raw files and says my camera isn't supported by the software I have downloaded 7.4 dng converter and I still can't open the files. What do I need to do?

You need camera raw 8.4 for your camera, if it’s Digital Rebel T5 EOS 1200D EOS Kiss X70. It is not compatible with PSE11; so it’s a bit odd if that software was bundled with the camera except that it will work with jpegs. I suggest you download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will editable in PSE11(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.4
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

.CR2 from canon G9 won't open with DNG converter or CS2

Hi I've tried opening .CR2 raw files fro a new Canon G9 with Adobe DNG converter but message says 'files won't open problem with parsing the file'
I downloaded both Camera raw 3.7 and 4.2 to use in CS2 but can't open them there either. Does anyone have any advice?
Malci

Canon G9 RAW files will only be able to convert in the latest (and free) ACR 4.3 but ACR version 4.x only works in PSCS3
for CS2 the max version is ACR3.7.
You have 2 options left:
1- upgrade your version to CS3, apart from being able to directly open the RAW in ACR you will benefit from a lot more options in ACR4 and CS3 that are worth the money.
2- use the DNG route, download the (free) DNG converter version 4.3 from the Adobe site.
convert the G9 RAW files to DNG and then open the files in the ACR 3.7 converter in CS2

DNG converter won't open CR2 files for conversion: no items match your search [was: Please help!!!!]

Thank you x

Ok so it's a canon 1200d, it's the 8.7 version. And in using Lightroom 4, it's strange because the first time I plugged it in it worked and I managed to edit all my picture and now I've taken more pictures it doesn't seen to work.

Adobe DNG Converter Problem - Won't recognise files!

Hi
I have downloaded Adobe Digital Negative Converter as a way of converting Nikon NEF files from a Nikon D3000 to DNG so I can edit them in Photoshop CS3. Currently the images from the D3000 won't open in CS3.
When using the DNG converter, on clicking on the 'Covert' button it is coming up with the following error message:
"The source folder does not contain any supported camera raw files". The source folder I have selected contains the Nikon D300 NEF raw images I have downloaded from the camera.
Any help on this would be gratefully received. Am I carrying out the process as I should do? I cannot see that I am doing anything wrong!
Many thanks
Carl

You must be using an older version of the DNG converter. Click on the button "About DNG converter...", it should show 5.6. something, or higher.
Download it from http://www.adobe.com/products/dng/

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 updates won't work? Also tried DNG converter but will not work either.

Does anyone know how to get the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 to update so you can use it? I can't process raw files with my new Canon SD Mark 3.
It looks like they stopped doing updates.
Next I tried the DNG converter but it was useless. It could not find any of my photos.
SOS - I needed to complete a job with this last night and their site won't help and they finally respond by saying we will get back to you in a few days.

That camera requires at least Lightroom 4.1. There is no update for Lightroom 3 that will support the files from that camera. I'm guessing that you're having the typical problem that new users at the DNG converter encounter. The converter prompts for the *FOLDER*. If you open that folder then the DNG converter will tell you there are no files to convert. Just choose the folder. I know, it's really stupid prompt and method. But it is what it is.

DNG Converter suddenly stopped working, won't read NEF files

Hi all, I'm new here, but am looking for some help.
I currently am on a mac book and run photoshop CS3. I've been shooting with a nikon d700 in raw. When I upload the photos to my computer I've previously run them through the DNG converter without a problem. Now, for the past two days it has just stopped working. When I try to convert the NEF files, they are just greyed out, I can't select anything. I tried reinstalling the DNG converter, but still no luck.
I never had any issues with it before, and now it suddenly won't read my files. Any ideas what could be wrong?
Thank you!

Had you run the DNG on a Mac before? On the Mac, the DNG Converter works on folders only, not on individual files (unless you use the Finder to drop the icons of your raw files on the DNG Converter application icon). From within the application, using File > Open, the icon and names of individual raw files will always appear grayed out.
You need to target the folder that contains the files you want to convert.
CAVEAT: all eligible files in the folder will be converted, including any and all DNG files that may already be contained in the folder. So if you have any DNGs in that folder, they will also be converted again and the original DNGs may be overwritten.

I can't open nikon D750 NEF files with adobe dng converter 8.7

I have downloaded adobe dng converter 8.7 to open NEF files from my new nikon D750 but it not works. The program do not recognice the files. Do you know how solve this problem?

You have to launch and run the Adobe DNG Converter on each batch of raw files you want to convert to raw DNGs.
You have to point it to the folder containing your raw files. It does NOT work on individual raw files; it simply won't see them. It works only on folders.

Elements 5.0 Won't Open DNG Files

I used Adobe DNG Converter version 8.3.0.141 to convert .rw2 files created by my Panasonic Lumix FZ200 camera. These files won't transfer into the Organizer and, when trying to open them from the Editor, I get an error message saying the file can't be opened "because it is the wrong type of file".

Works for me. I used Adobe Camera Raw 4.6 in PSE, and the DNG Converter set to compatibility "Camera Raw 4.6 and later".
What version of Adobe Camera Raw are you using? (In the PSE Editor, use Help About->Plug-Ins->Camera Raw)
What compatibility are you selecting in the DNG Converter?

DNG Converter 7.1 won't open!
