Elements 10 won't open a nef(raw) file?

I downloaded photoshop elements 10.Uptated it.It still won't open a nef(raw) file.It just said it is the wrong type of file?What do I have to download to open and edit this type of file?

You will need to wait for the next camera raw update. You have two alternatives:
(1) Use Nikon software to convert. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your NEF files to the Adobe Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your original NEF’s as backups and for use in Nikon software)
Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.1
Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.1
You can convert a whole folder of NEF images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

E6 won't open D700 NEF (RAW) File!

Whether I try to import or drag and drop I get a message that claims "wrong file type".
I primarily use LightRoom 2.3, so I should have the current ACR installed, right? Wouldn't that translate into Elements, as well? How do I check?
I can try the .dng conversion first, but that can't be a permanent solution. I need to run the Noiseware PI to do a secondary edit, and there are several hundred images.
Thanks!

Ok, that must be the issue. I followed the directions to ID the ACR version installed in E6, and it's 4.2! I'm downloading now and will install the new ACR as per the instructions.
Thanks for the info!!

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)

Photoshop CS4 will not open Nikon (NEF) raw files.

I recently tried CS6 Suite. Trial was over and I went back to Photoshop CS4. However, it would not open Nikon (NEF) raw files. I uninstalled and re-installed the PS CS4. This did not fix the problem. Can anyone help?
Thanks,

NEF files from which Nikon camera?

Mac OS 10.9.4 cannot open the NEF/RAW files from the new Nikon D810 Camera

I have a new Nikon D810 camera. My new iMac cannot open the NEF/RAW files from it...Anyone have any knowledge of this?

If you will take the time to send Apple feedback, they will add RAW support - when I got my Canon, it wasn't supported either. I filed feedback and, two months, later, there was an update which included my camera model.

Hi. With the current PS Touch version RAW files are not supported for the PS Touch import.
You can vote for this idea which goes in to the same direction.

How to fix Adobe Elements 11 not opening Nikon D7100 raw files?

Installed Adobe Elements last night and installed the Raw Converter 7.4. Everything worked fine yesterday. Today it will not open the raw files. Uninstalled and reinstalled, same problem!

Are these the same raw files or different ones?
If using Nikon Transfer or other Nikon software ensure you have installed the version for your camera model as older versions of Nikon software can corrupt the latest NEF’s.
Try testing by shooting a few new raw images and opening directly into Elements, without touching them.
Also check that ACR 7.4 is properly installed, from Expert Mode.

CS6 - Camera Raw 7.1 won't open Nikon D7100 RAW files anymore

I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 installed on it.
I use CS6 and a few days ago, I started having trouble when loading files (JPEG & RAW files via Camera Raw). If I loaded more than two or three files, it would crash Photoshop. I tried loading JPEG directly into Photoshop, and it would still crash after 2 minutes. I tried restarting PS, reset my settings to default, restart my PC, and still the problem persisted. I checked the RAM and scratch disks, etc, there was no change with it. I decided I would reinstalled CS6. I did and now Photoshop works perfectly. I can even load JPEG via Camera Raw and it works without crashing. But then, my RAW files won't load via Camera Raw. I have the latest one from what I saw on Adobe's website - Version 7.1.0.354. Others listed are DNG converter but I don't need that.
The RAW files I am trying to open are from a Nikon D7100 camera and before, those same files would open with Camera Raw 7.1.
Can someone please help me out on this. I am a bit desesperate cause I urgently need to edit files on Camera Raw because all my settings are saved on this.
When I open a raw file, this is the message I get:

In any event, Kathleen, you should NOT be using that obsolete ACR 7.1 version. Besides, the Nikon D7100 is not supported by that version, as you have already been correctly told.
Update to ACR 8.6 for CS6 ASAP.
Going through the Help menu in Photoshop CS6 (Help > Updates) will/should update you automatically. If for some reason,the auto updater fails, here's the link to the ACR 8.6 manual install:
Windows
CameraRaw_8_6_Installer.zip
One should never be using anything but the latest version of Adobe Camera Raw (ACR).
Even if you were using a camera supported by your obsolete version, you are leaving a lot of image quality on the table now. The rendering of the more recent versions of ACR is demonstrably superior, starting with 7.4.
It is a shame to be using a decent camera—even if it's not a top of the line Nikon—and be in effect trashing some of its image quality. Really.

PSCS3 won't open Nikon D7000 RAW files

I just purchased a Nikon D7000. Shot some RAW files and tried to download to iPhoto, not possible. SO, installed Nikon VIEW NX2, and Transfer 2. RAW images downloaded to my computer (late 2008 Macbook Pro, Leopard 10.5.8, Camera RAW plug-in 6) into ViEW 2. But showing the followiing format: _DSC001.NEF
Normally, it should read: DSC_001.NEF
SO within the Nikon software, I can work on the image, but I cannot export it into PS. It comes up with an error that the image format is unreadable. (Nor can I find how to get it out of VIEW NX2 , but that might just be my lack of reading all the info there, will see)
I contacted Nikon and they told me to change something in Image Capture in my MAC apps. I went there, but Image Capture was already set to the change they asked me to do.
I tried to download again, but same problem. I tried to download into iPhoto, in order to try and get it into PS, but it wouldn't. All files were unreadable.
JPEG, however, does download, with both file formats, and opensin iPhoto and PS, whether there is a _ first or a letter first.
SO, I don't know what to do. I am assuming all my plug-in's are up to date.
My D70 RAW transfers fine!!! The D7000, not.
Any info out there??? Nikon has not replied back a second time when I responded to them.
Thank you for any help. I welcome it all.

Thanks, all of you.
I downloaded Adobe Camera Raw DNG 6.4 (Not 7.1 as I read it worked slow and had some bugs still in it) and backcomplied it to open in a 4.6 format. It works to open RAW in my PSCS3 now. Great! Of course I definitely will be checking out PSCS6 Extended for an upgrade, but for now, I can use this.
I have 3 questions that I am not clear on.
1) When I converted, I included the 'original raw file' within the DNG, as opposed to NOT incuding it. They say you can open it later, that it is inside the DNG. Please someone explain to me how this can be when I am adjusting and cropping my files after opening in RAW.? (OK I know nothing about this). Where do I find the file???
2) I did notice a little bit of color loss, or maybe it is in the Adobe 1998 color space, but it seemed to transfer fine. Is this the case?
3) If I save in Tiff, would the embedded file still be in the DNG ??It would no longer be a DNG file. I am asuming that I SHOULD be saving an original conversion in DNG for archives and to make copies from. I really do not understand this. I am saving the original NEF file in the Nikon VIEW NX2 for later use as a backup.
Thank you again.

Camera Raw won't open Canon5D mkII raw files

Use windows XP 32 bit. Dual core processor with 4g ram.Cameraraw opens Canon CR2 files from 1DmkIII, but not 5D mkII. Worked for about a month and stopped. Reloaded photoshop CS4 and loaded 5.5 update for Cameraraw. Still does not work, Have Creative Suite 4 Web Premium on computer. Do I delete all the Adobe programs and start over? If so, do i remove the registration from computer?

Thanks Jeff, followed your advice. Manually loaded 5.7 Raw update. It did work. I just needed to purge the cache. then the raw files opened. Thanks you very much.

How can I open Nikon NEF raw files in CS4?

I've tried all the tips I've seen in the Forums so far to no avail. I've downloaded the latest software, I've found the Carmera Raw.8bi file - it's in the Adobe/Plug Ins/CS/File Format. I have Cs4 selected as the default to open NEF files. What else can I do? I have the D90.

The latest version of camera raw is 5.7 for cs4.
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4683
If you go to the About Plug-in under the help menu and choose camera
raw, you can see which version you have.
The location should be C:/Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Plug-ins/CS4/File Formats.
If you have a 64 bit windows, there will be one in the Program files/common files
and one in the Program files (x86)/common files.

Opening Nikon D7000 raw files in Elements 8

I am unable to open Nikon D7000 NEF files in Elements 8. I have been unsuccessfull in downloading the version 5.7 update from the web site. After downloading several times the files are still not recognized in Elements 8.

I am using Windows 7. I tried selecting the folder that contained the folder holding the pictures to be converted. I then single-clicked the folder holding the pictures and hit select. A message came up stating that the source folder did not contain any supported camera raw files.I have spoken with my Elements software supplier and this is his response:
"I've done some digging and it turns out the Nikon D7000 wasn't supported in elements until the release of version 6.4 Adobe Camera Reader.So to make sure you have the latest ACR update installed. You can check which one you have by going into elements and clicking Help>About Plug-In>Camera Raw. And if it's not 6.7 then Help>Updates will find it and let you install the latest version. You could also try saving your camera files as .RAW instead of .NEF, and then opening them in elements. Adobe lightroom 4 should already have these plugins available right outside the box, but if you can save the money and run updates instead that would work just fine." I have checked for Elements updates for the Camera Raw plug-in and the message appears stating no updates are available. The camer raw plug-in version is currently 6.1.0.250.

What operating system are you using?
The most common cause is pointing the dng converter to the actual files and not just to the folder that the camera raw files are in.
There is an example of how on a windows system in this thread:

I can't open Nikon D800.nef (raw) files in my Photoshop CS6 (64 bit), however, I can open .jpg files

I just purchased and installed Photoshop CS6 (64 bit) to use with my Nikon D800. However, I can't open the .nef (raw) files but the .jpg files from the same camera will open. What do I need to do to open .nef files from the D800?

Hello! By default, Photoshop CS6 cannot open the NEF from a D800, you need to have at least Camera Raw 7.1, as explained in this document: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
Go to the Help menu, and select "updates" and you'll launch the Adobe Updater that should suggest to install Camera Raw 7.2 that supports the D800, and many other cameras.

Open Nef (Raw) file in CS3

Hi,
When trying to open a Nef (Raw) file from Nikon D90 in Photoshop CS3 the following happens:
- Nikon Scan 4.0 tries to open (why scan?)
and deliveres the message "buffer overrun,
program must be terminated", the header
for this message is "Visual C++ runtime
library"
The default application to open Nef files
is Nef launcher 1.2 according to Adobe Bridge, so why this Nikon Scan 4.0 fuss?
So please tell me what to do to be able to
open Nef files in Photoshop CS3.
Thank You,
Martti

I should have written a bit more. The latest update for ACR, compatible with Photoshop CS3 is version 4.6. If this is too old for your camera* you have to use the DNG convertor
* I suggest you do some reading (especially the links at the top) in the ACR Forum at http://www.adobeforums.com/webx?13@@.3bb6a85c.
Further questions would be better posted there. Include exact system and camera details.
The instructions on how to install are all there too.
