Does PSE 12 download and edit raw NEF files

I have a new Nikon D7100 and PSE 10. PSE 10 does not support Raw NEF files from this camera. Does PSE 12 download and edit Raw files from the D 7100?

Someone will probably answer this before I finish typing.
Your issue is less with PSE than ACR or Adobe Camera Raw. ACR works a little like a conversion engine to get RAW photos from all the various camera models to Adobe's photo programs. Adobe updates it for recent models every few months. They don't make it backwardly useful to Elements software.
So, you get two choices. You can upgrade PSE that works with the current ACR modules. If you don't want to learn the new interface and tools in PSE 12, you can use the free and downloadable "Adobe DNG Converter" that also is kept up for new camera models. It will batch process you camera files to a more universal RAW format that is useful in the software you have.

How do I convert already imported and edited RAW (NEF) files + it's Sidecar file, to DNG?

Using Lightroom 4 now on a Mac. I have an extensive number of RAW (NEF) + Sidecar combos, that I wish to convert in groups, if possible, to DNG format, so the data of the sidecards is retained, and the DNG created does not need to be reedited from its origional camera state. What is the best way of doing this with a large number of files?

Does Library>Convert Photo to DNG not do this?
Edit: just checked. It does. While the DNG replaces the file in Lightroom, the Raw and the XMP are still there on the disk.

Merge to HDR Pro does not work on Nikon D800 RAW (NEF) files

Hi,
I can't get Merge to HDR Pro to work on NEF RAW files from my Nikon D800 - nothing happens after after confirming the file selection. However, it works ok if I convert those files to DNG (using Lightroom 4), and if I use the D800's JPGs, and if I use Nikon D7000 NEFs. It just seems to be a problem with Nikon D800 NEFs.
Steps taken:
1. File -> Automate -> Merge to HDR Pro
2. Browse... and select NEF files (even selecting 2 files does not work).
3. Attempt to Automatically Align Source Images is checked. Then press OK.
Expected result:
Progress cursor spins as files are loaded and HDR dialog appears.
Actual result:
Nothing happens - no progress cursor or CPU or disk activity - it is as if I had clicked cancel instead of ok.
This is a clean install of the 64 bit CS6 beta on Windows 7 64 bit, with no plugins, and I reset preferences (Ctrl+Alt+Shift on startup). I do have my existing CS5 Extended still installed, as well as Lightroom 3.6 and 4.0.
I can send you the NEFs if you like.

Hi,
The Ps CS6 public beta version contains the same camera support as found in Ps CS5/5.5 compatible CR 6.6. There will be future updates to CR 7 for Ps CS6 to pick up more camera support. The Nikon D800 NEF files are not supported, yet.
If you like to work with your D800 files in the public beta build now, you'll have to get the DNG Converter 6.7 from here: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/cameraraw6-7/
and convert your files to DNG.
regards,
steve

My elements 11 does not seem to recognise Nikon raw NEF files. Is there A fix available for this.

My Photoshop elements 11 does not appear to recognise Nikon NEF raw files. Is there a fix for this?

Other than upgrading to pse 13, you can use the 8.7.1 dng converter to convert the nikon D750 camera raw files to dng copies, which then pse 11 should be able to open.
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
how to use the dng converter:
Camera Raw: How to use Adobe DNG Converter - YouTube

I edited a .nef file in Camera Raw and PSE 11 saved it as a .xmp file. I cannot open it now.

I edited a .nef file in Camera Raw and PSE 11 saved it as a .xmp file. I cannot open it now.
I am not sure if this is an issue but Windows does not recognize the .xmp file and give it an icon with the photo's picture. On a related note, when I edited some .nef files and Windows saved it as .dng file, it too, like the .xmp file, Windows does not recognize the .dng file and give it an icon with the photo's picture.
Do I need to download something to create this icon?

PSE didn't save your file as an .xmp file. The .xmp file is not the image--that's still the .nef. The xmp file is what adobe calls a 'sidecar' file, just a record of the settings you used in the raw converter. As long as it's in the same place as the image, when you open the nef in ACR again, it will open where you left off, with the settings you chose.
If you want to save as, you have two choices:
1. Click the Open button in the raw converter window and save in the image format of your choice.
2. Use the Save button in the raw converter to create a separate DNG file, which still must be opened in the raw converter and converted to an image format for use in other programs.

I use photoshop elements version 11 and just bought a nikon d750. Photoshop elements can't open/read the raw/NEF-file. Does a photoshop elements raw converter exist for Nikon d750 ??? And where can I get it ?

Does a raw converter exist for this camera and where can I find it ?
Thanks for any help.

You need Adobe camera raw version 8.7. Unfortunately your software pre-dates the camera. ACR 8.7 is only compatible with PSE13. But it is possible to download and install the free 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 (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.7
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.7
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

I've been using Elements 10 on my windows 7 machine editing RAW/NEF picture files taken with a Nikon D40X camera with no problems. I upgraded my camera to a Nikon DX7100 and can no longer load my RAW/NEF into elements 10. Is there a compatability problem

I've been using Elements 10 on my windows 7 machine editing RAW/NEF picture files taken with a Nikon D40X camera with no problems. I upgraded my camera to a Nikon DX7100 and can no longer load my RAW/NEF into elements 10. Is there a compatability problem with my new camera? Will upgrading elements to a newqer version solve the problem?

NEF's for the D7100 should work with the latest version PSE13

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?

My Elements 9 does not recognise Raw NEF files created by my newNikon d 800.

I would be grateful if you could send me the relevant updaste so that my Elements 9 Package cn recognise RAW NEF files created by my new Nikon D 800

Unfortunately, nobody can send the relevant update since the D800 requires a more recent version of ACR than will work in PSE 9.
You have three options:
1. Use the Nikon software to convert the files and then use PSE for any additional editing to the converted images.
2. Upgrade to PSE 11.
3. Download the free adobe DNG converter and use that to convert your NEFs to a format that your version of ACR can understand:

First, iOS 5.0.1 does not run on a MacBook Pro. You should correct that on your profile.
Please check out the iMovie forum, where you will get a quick answer to your question. This forum is for the MacBook Pro hardware.

Often, this error message means that you have used some version of Nikon software to transfer the photos to your computer, and this has corrupted the files. There is a fix which uncorrupts the files at http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/fix_corrupted_nef.html
But you said you get this message when you "connect my other camera Nikon D3100", the key word being "connect", and this doesn't really fit the description I just gave. This error message normally happens after you have transferred the photos to your computer via Nikon software, not when you connect it. So ... maybe you need to explain a little more ... what exact task (what menu options, what are you clicking on, what are you trying to do) when you get this error.

I lost my belongings via theft. As a photographer my greatest loss is having a computer to download and edit photos. Money is scarce and I am considering an ipad. Can anyone advise me whether an ipad can replace a pc? Are there ports?

I lost my belongings via theft from a storage unit. As it was scheduled for move the next day I did not purchase insurance. Probably an inside job, painful leason learned. This also left me no way to repurchase all i lost.
As a photographer my greatest loss is having a computer to download and edit photos. Money is scarce and I am considering an ipad, understanding even this may not be affordable. Can anyone advise me whether an ipad can replace a pc? Are there ports? How crucial is memory? I could edit photos then store them on flash drives if the ipad cannot handle load. Never having owned one I'm afraid I am completely ignorant on these issues and am grateful for any guidance. Thank you!

No. The iPad while a powerful tablet, is not a PC replacement. It is limited in what it can do.
Trishfromaz wrote:

No USB ports or of any other kind if that is what you are asking. There's the sync/charge port you can use with the Lightning to USB camera Adapter, but only to load photos onto the iPad. It cannot write out to USB drives.

iPads are not upgradeable. So what you buy is what you get. Memory is 1GB. Storage space can go from 16GB up to 128GB
Depending on what Image editor applications you use, there may not be a version for iPad with the features you need.

Raw files from the new Nikon D810 will not open with either Photoshop CS5.1 or Lightroom 4. When will a real Adobe solution be available to work with Raw (NEF) files in their native format, using CS5.1 and LR4?

Clarification: this is a user forum; you are not addressing Adobe here.
The answer to your question as phrased is: never.
CS5 is history and it is not longer supported. There will not be any updates or bug fixes for CS5.
You need to convert the raw NEF files from your D810 to raw DNGs using the free, standalone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 RC (beta), the first version ever to support that camera..

Had my Nikon D600 recently in for the updated service call. Camera works fine but Photoshop says it cannot open my RAW (NEF) files now? It worked fine before and I have done all my updates.

The only thing I can think of is if you got a replacement D610 as rumored here:
http://nikonrumors.com/2014/01/27/nikon-is-replacing-some-d600-cameras-with-new-d610-model s.aspx/
In that case, you would need the new version of Camera RAW or DNG converter as per Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras .
The other thing to check is if the files open in the Nikon native ViewNX software. If they don't it's time to call the service center.

Need advice on video download and edit

I need to download and edit video, have not done it before. My Mac is a PowerBook G4 from 2005. The videocamera I have is a Sony GL2 digital which uses a mini DV cassette. I have a cable, a 4-pin DV to 6-pin firewire. What software do I need? (Currently I have only graphics apps, Adobe CS2, Dreamweaver, Flash, Quark.) The type of editing I need to do initially is cut out crap scenes, piece together good scenes, and export mpeg clips. I do not have a DVD writer on this Mac. I love Adobe products but I can't spring for Premiere right now.

iMovie came with the computer. Capture and cut away.
You'll need an external DVD burner if you want to output stuff. iDVD will allow you to burn the video to disk.
