Elements 10, Camera Raw 6.7: no colour space choices

Newbie alert!
I'm no expert on Photoshop or Camera Raw, but I read everywhere that I should be able to change the colour space of the Camera Raw output. At the moment I can only get the default which is sRGB but I want Adobe.
There's a little camera gizmo titled "Camera Calibration" underneath the histogram, but it's not there.
I've read that there should be some control in the middle beneath the preview but there's nothing there either.
Is this hobbled in Elements?
Thanks,
Keith

Thanks for the reply: I'm aware I can set the colour space in the editor but my concern is that if it's exported from Camera Raw as sRGB then converted to AdobeRGB that there may be some information loss, my thinking being that getting it right early is better than later. Am I right in thinking that converting from sRGB to ARGB will lose information, or more likely won't have the full information set in the first place because the initial export from RAW is to sRGB?
I have to say I find the subject of colour management quite mystifying ... but I gather I'm not alone in that.
Thanks again.
Keeping in mind that a raw file has no color profile (it's not even an 'image', it's a recording of light intensity for each of the photosites laid out in a 'Bayer pattern' with Red, Green and blue filters) and that your raw file information will never be altered by any converter, you can be sure that it is always possible to re-process the raw file to aRGB without any information loss.
You are perfectly right that the resulting image (psd, tiff, jpeg...) when you save from the editor will keep its color profile and that converting sRGB to aRGB won't add any useful information; that's what I said in the other post.
When I was experimenting on that matter with other users in another forum, I was able to select previously edited raw files containing subtle tones in green/cyan and re-process them in aRGB instead of sRGB and I got better results on my 6-inks home printer.
Don't believe all images will be better in aRGB, there are not necessarily 'out of gamut' colours in all of your pictures.

I just realized that I have missed to put the link to the other thread:

How long til elements 7 Camera RAW 5.4 for Canon 500D????

I have recently upgraded from Canon 400D to 500D. I was merrily editing away with the 400D but since the 500D, I haven't been able to convert the RAW files at all. Research on this site shows that there is a trial 5.4 for the 500D but for CS4 only!! I have emailed Adobe for an update but don't hold out much hope. Has anyone heard a release date for Elements 7 camera RAW?? I know I've got the DPP software but I've never used it and from what I've tried to suss out today - it's pants compared to Elements hence paying £70 for the pleasure and now it doesn't work!! But I'm not bitter.......;o)
Cheers

People (including me) have been able to get ACR5.4 to work with PSE (6 or 7).

Elements 12 Camera Raw

Can Elements 12 Camera Raw be updated from ver 8.0 to ver 8.2? From what I can find out the CR2 files from my Canon 70D require ver 8.2. I am unable to open them in Elements 12 even though the CR2 files from my older Canon T3i open with no problem.

The list of cameras and ACR versions is here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
Help / Updates from PSE’s Editor should update to ACR 8.3. If it says things are up-to-date, then reboot and try it, again, and if it still says that, then you might try re-installing PSE12. That worked for someone else within the last couple days.
Otherwise, someone else tried the direct-download link for ACR 8.3 CC on Adobe’s blog and it worked to update their PSE11 so I expect it’d work for PSE12:

Elements 12 (Camera RAW V8.0.0.137) öffnet die RAW-Dateien meiner EOS 70D nicht. Wann Update von Camera RAW verfügbar? Gibt es eine andere Lösung?

Hallo!
Habe mir den DNG-Converter V8.3 von ADOBE runtergeladen und installiert (Installation musste ich merkwürdigerweise zwei mal starten. Fehlermeldung: "...ist keine 32bit-Anwednung" - Ich nutze noch WIN XP :-( ). Dann gleich 2-3 Bilder damit convertiert und dann mit (bereits offenem) ELEMTNS 12 mit Camera RAW versucht zu öffnen. Ergebnis: Fehlermeldung: "....diese Version wird von ELEMENTS 12 nicht unterstützt". Nun habe ich Elements noch einmal zugemacht und wieder geöffnet und es nochmal versucht ... siehe da, der zweite Anlauf hat funktioniert. (Ausführliche Beschreibung damit anderen Usern das ggf. hilft.)
VIELEN DANK für den Tipp!

Elements 7 & Camera Raw 4.6/CS3 - won't open

Here's my dilemna:
1 - click on a RAW/CR2 image file in PSE7
2 - click on Edit --> Edit with Photoshop
3 - File opens in Photoshop as a CR2 file with an "-edited-1" suffix added to the file name (still in CR2 format).
PSE5 Used to open the CR2 file in ACRaw and then hand off to CS3. Somehow, the ACRaw step has gone away with PSE7. ACR still works from Bridge, is installed only once in CS3, etc.
Also, I tried 'downgrading' to ACR 4.5, but the same thing happened (no ACR when going to CS3).
Plus, right clicking on the CR2 image in PSE7 and choosing "FULL EDIT" opens ACR 4.6, which allows me to edit the RAW file - but then hands off to PSE7's full editor (not CS3). Again, ACR is working fine.
Net: somehow the ACR step was lost in the PSE7 handoff to CS3. Any suggestions on how to get it back?
Thanks,
A.J.

A.J.,
I am seeing the same thing you are. It seems that this is new to Photoshop Elements 7 Organizer. All raw files (I have confirmed with .CRW, .CR2, and .NEF} open in Photoshop CS3 with no opportunity to adjust any of the camera raw options. I would assume that the raw file is being processed with some default setting and immediately opening in Photoshop CS3.
If I ask the Photoshop Elements Organizer to do a 'Full Edit' in the Photoshop Elements 7 Editor the Camera Raw window does open.
I would also like to learn how to restore this function.

Photoshop elements 11 camera raw update not compatible with my camera

my PSE11 was working fine until i bought a new camera and tried to upload photos from my RAW files. It gave me this message
"Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw.
Please visit the Camera Raw help documentation for additional information."
so i tried to install the update.... installed it fine, kept getting the same message when i would try to open the photo. after researching online i found the suggestion of uninstalling and reinstalling photoshop elements. i did that once, tried the update again...same results. uninstalled again. tried the update again and still getting the same message. ive checked the adobe website and everywhere i look says the version of the camera raw DOES support my camera (nikon D7100). im at my wits end with this and dont know what else to do. please help!!!

So what version of Camera Raw is installed?
In PSE Editor, Help->About Plug-In->Camera Raw
And what is your operating system?

Elements 7 & camera raw

I am trying to open my files (Nikon D5000) in elements 7, but they won't open. I downloaded Camera Raw 5.6 & followed the directions as stated on this site, however camera raw is not prperly installed in PSE. It is not showing up in the "plug ins" even though it is in the folder on my computer. Any help with this would be GREATLY appreciated!

that's another part of the instructions i was confused at. I downloaded 5.6 from the adobe site, but when i opened it after it downloaded, it didn't give me an option to unzip it. It had the win64 folder, the camera raw file, and the camera profiles file. I was then able to move the camera raw file into the PSE/plugins/file format folder. that's as far as i'm getting. Am i missing a step? It doesn't seem like there is anything i can do besides that. After the 5.6 downloads it asks if i want to open, save, or save as. i hit save. then it takes me to the downloads folder where i can get to it as stated above. (i hope this makes sense!)

Premier Elements 10 Camera Raw 6.6 update fails

Running the Camera Raw 6.6 update for Premier Elements 10 fails with the message:
Update Failed
! Updates could not be applied
Error log says:
Elements Camera Raw 6.6 Updates
Installation failed. Error Code: U44M2P7
Windows 7 64-bit
What gives? How can I find which version of Camera Raw is installed?

Thanks for replies. Windows is on the busy auto-update program. I have Photoshop elements 8 (upgrade from 4, 5, 6, 7 maybe earlier). PSE 8 stopped auto updating years ago, but I was able to update to Camera Raw 5.2 manually. That is, find the subdirectory that contains the plugin and copy the new plugin there. I had 3 or 4 subdirs with the plugin, it was a process of elimination to identifiy which was the functional plugin. The old plugin must be removed or PSE8 reads it even if renamed (duplicates show in help, plugins). Adobe says PSE8 will only update to Camera Raw 5.2. I have yet to test import of an image from a camera newer than those in the 5.2 update. I do have a camera that's in the 5.3 list.
Premier Elements is different, no inventory of plugins. Auto update says it is up to date. Adobe says PE10 will take the Camera Raw 6.6. Without an inventory of installed plugins, I downloaded 6.6 zip file, that's what fails upon installation. I have yet to try searching for the plugin and manually overwriting older versions. The 6.6 upgrade process produces 50 files so it will be much more difficult if I go that route. First I'll test import of images from a new camera, then I'll try the manual update process, if all else fails, I'll reluctantly update to PE11. Adobe help describes use of the DNG function, which provides a work-around to camera raw incompatability.
It seem the updates of Photoshop and Premier have been for new file sharing functions and cloud storage or macros that deploy basic image/video imaging functions. I have no interest in using social network and cloud storage interface, I just want to edit, so upgrades have not been appealing. Adobe is out to collect another $100 each year or two with no real increase in editing functionality? Or is it that the bugs in PE10 are fixed in 11? The advertising says nothing about bug fixes, must pay another $100 to find out if the bugs are fixed? I'm old fashioned, pay for new functionality, not features that are already supposed to be there. Now it costs $100 if I want to update the Camera Raw plugin...
Social networking, storage modes come and go. I just want the image processing to work well!

Photoshop Elements 5, camera raw documentation

Hello,
Is there a specific location to find documentation updates from one version of Camera Raw to another? I purchased a manual for PSE5 and the Camera Raw displays are for a version that is older then what I have(Camera Raw 3.7) installed. It is hard to follow with the fields not being the same. Also is there any big advantages to upgrade to a newer version of Camera Raw, say from 3.7 to 4.3.1?
Thanks for any help
Rob

I have never used ACR with Photoshop Elements. I know that quite a few of the features are missing when compared with Photoshop. However, if you updated to ACR 4.3.1 I think you would have the clarity and vibrance controls that you don't have now. And there might be some other additions as well. I cannot tell you where to get more current documentation.

I don't see all option in Photoshop Elements and Camera Raw

e.g. Auto-Align Layers in Image menu or Adjustment brush in Camera Raw. Please tell me what I need to do.

That's because Elements is a reduced version of Photoshop.
You have two questions:
Auto align layers. My suggestion: google 'Photoshop Elements auto align layers' and you have a lot of answers and suggestions.
The ACR module does not have all the features of the full version in Photoshop, but the important and meaningful ones are there. For the rest, you have to open your image in the editor where you have corresponding features. The editor has much more powerful tools than the adjustment brush for critical editing.

Photoshop Elements 10 - Camera Raw für EOS 70D

Hallo, hat von Euch jemand eine Ahnung wie ich bei Photoshop Elements 10 Fotos im Raw-Format von einer Canon EOS 70D öffnen kann. Habe erst heute aktualisiert Camera raw, aber ich kann die Fotos trotzdem nicht öffnen. Vielen Dank für Eure Hilfe - lbg Christine

Adobe updates Camera Raw to support new cameras only for the latest (at the time) version of Photoshop.
Here is a list of supported cameras vs. Camera Raw versions:

Specifically, if Photoshop Elements 10 cannot update to Camera Raw 8.2 or newer, which I suspect it can't, then you will need to do one of two things:
1. For the greatest integration and convenience, upgrade to the latest version of Photoshop Elements (currently 12). Then you will be able to open your 70D files directly.
2. Download and install the latest version of the free DNG Converter. Then you will be able to convert your 70D .CR2 raw files to .DNG format, that Photoshop Elements 10 will be able to open.

Elements 11 Camera Raw not supporting new Canon EOS 7D MkII.

When I try to open a Raw file from my new camera I get the message
'Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw. Please visit the Camera Raw help documents for additional information'
I've updated my Elements 11 and restarted the computer (Windows 7), but the problem persists.
Any solutions?
I could open the file with Canon software (DPP) and transfer it to elements, but I'd sooner not - it's a rather clunky process.@

Hi,
I think that Adobe do the best job they can. Adobe aren't treated any different from you or I by the camera manufacturers - they don't get any privileged information - they have to wait until they can get their hands on a camera the same as you or I.
If you want to blame someone then direct your blame on the camera manufacturers. If their raw files were written in DNG format then there would not be any problems or delays.
Just think, if nobody bought the new cameras for two months after they were being shipped, the camera manufacturers might change their attitude and cooperate with Adobe.
I don't think it will be too long before and update is released by Adobe. In the meantime, you can use the Canon DPP to convert the raw files or shoot in JPG to get familiar with the controls and settings.

I can not update Elements 11 camera raw 8, , I said that already updated

I see that Photoshop is updated camera raw (to 8), but is camera raw 7.4 elements 11. I bought a new camera and I do not recognize the raw, however comes in the list of camera raw 8. Do I have a problem in my program to update?

Try a manual update to ACR 8.1 like this:
Download the Plug-in zip file from here:
http://swupdl.adobe.com/updates/oobe/aam20/win/PhotoshopCameraRaw7-7.0/8.1.79/setup.zip
When you have it explore it and go here:
...setup.zip\payloads\AdobeCameraRaw7.0All-290513174249\Assets1_1.zip
Then extract the 1003 file, rename it and put it where the other .8bi file is, which you renamed to *.old. (C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 11\File Formats)
This should also work with version 8.2, which is here:
http://swupdl.adobe.com/updates/oobe/aam20/win/PhotoshopCameraRaw7-7.0/8.2.67/setup.zip
Juergen
PS: Link to Version 8.1 does not seem to work anymore. Use 8.2 instead.
