Elements 11 import of NEF files fails

I've been using Elements for some time and importing NEF files from my Nikon D7100. I have Camera Raw 7.4 installed. When I try to import new NEF files, it get's about 95% done and it says Import Failed. Nothing was imported. The fields or files selected to import did not contain any supported file types, or the files are already in the catalog.
They are not in the catalog. What is all of a sudden wrong?
Any help you can provide would be geatly appreciated.
Thanks

Thank you, Jim,
this was what I expexted. I misread the List provided by Adobe
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
by (wishfully) slipping to the next row which read 3.6 for Lightroom version.
Actually the list gives the correct information

According to the list published by Adobe, that camera was not supported until Lightroom 5.3. I don't know where you got information to the contrary. You'll either have to upgrade or use the DNG converter.

So I updated to lightroom 3.6-now i cannot import any .nef files?

so I updated to lightroom 3.6-now i cannot import any .nef files? is that what you call progress?

Hi,
I'm not sure why you think Lightroom 3 will support the D610 as it was only announced on October 8, 2013. Support for the D610 was released in the Lightroom 5.3 RC, see Lightroom 5.3 RC now available on Adobe Labs
If you wish to use you D610 files in Lightroom 3.6 you will need to download the Adobe DNG Converter, convert your NEF to DNG and then import into Lightroom 3.6. The DNG Converter can be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106&platform=Windows
Or, better option is to upgrade to the current version of Lightroom

Organizer in Photoshop Elements 9 won't import large NEF files

Photoshop Elements 9 won't import the NEF fiels from my new Nikon D800.

Yes, the camera is too new for PSE9. You will have to either:
Upgrade to PSE11
Download the free Adobe DNG Converter Version 7.3 and use that to convert your NEFs to DNGs, and then PSE9 will be able to import them
Use the Nikon software to convert the file to TIF, then import into PSE.

I need help! when I am importing my NEF files from my D3300 camera into lightroom 5 and try to use the "copy as DNG" button I always get an error message saying that "saying the file is not recognized by the raw format support"

I need help! when I am importing my NEF Raw files from my D3300 camera into lightroom 5 and try to use the "copy as DNG" button I always get an error message saying that "saying the file is not recognized by the raw format support". The whole purpose of that button is so that the file can be recognized... How can I make the "copy as DNG" button work as it is supposed too?? Thank you

Thank you for responding. So I essentially will never be able to use that button in lightroom 5? do I need to get LR 6? Will there ever be an update for LR 5 that will enable me to use it?
Does DNG Converter work within LR or do I have to upload pictures to my computer and then make a second copy in DNG format. and then go into LR and use them?
Thank you @dj_paige

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.

Photoshop Elements 10 not recognizing .NEF files from Nikon D3200 camera

I've been using Photoshop Elements 10 to edit raw .NEF files from my Nikon D3000 with no problems. Recently I purchased a Nikon D3200 and I shoot in raw .NEF files using that also but Photoshop Elements 10 will not recognize those .NEF files to edit. The error I'm getting is saying the file type is not correct. Any way to correct this?

For the D3200 you have two alternatives:
(1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your NEF files to the Adobe universal 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 7.2
Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.2
You can convert a whole folder of NEF images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

Elements 11 won't import my NEF files

I"ll tried directly importing files as NEF and I've converting them to DNG usuing Adobe converter and still the error message says doesn't recognize files. Help. Frustrating.

You don't say which camera model, but have you gone to Help>Updates in the editor to update ACR to 7.3?

Elements 9 won't import RAW (NEF) files

Tried importing files from memory card with pics taken in both JPEG and RAW. Imported JPEG's but not the RAW pics. It has accepted RAW files before. First time using Nikon D800 camera. Any solutions?
Thanks.

PSE 9 cannot make use of Nikon D800 RAW files.
You have 3 options, two of them are free
Download the free Adobe DNG converter, version 7.4. This will convert your RAWs to DNG, which will open in PSE9
Use the Nikon software that came with your camera, convert the photos to TIF, which can be used in PSE9
Purchase PSE11

Import of XML file failed in portal using XML Content and Action

Hi Friends,
I am trying to import the simple XML file which is just creating the folder in the PORTAL_CONTENT using XML CONTENT AND ACTIONS which is one way of creating the portal content. GO TO SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION > TRANSPORT > XML CONTENT AND ACTIONS > IMPORT.
The reason for using this import tool is to upload the backend Business roles, which is not not working on our corporate portal. To test the import functionality I used the following xml file (I got this XML file by exporting the test folder in the portal using the same tool)

Why is iPhoto (Mountain Lion) importing RAW/NEF files as jpeg's?

I am manually importing via DVD's my archived iPhoto files from iPhoto '08, (7.1.5), Snow Leopard, to my new computer running Mountain Lion. iPhoto '11 (9.4.3). Most of my files are in RAW format (NEF) and was saved as such. I am noticing that as I import from the discs into the new iPhoto, it is importing some as jpeg's and I am loosing my RAW data. I am findiing very little being imported as RAW.
Has anyone else had this experience?
Is there somewhere in the settings that I am not finding, to correct this? I checked all that I know to look at and I did not find anywhere an option to change the format of the image in importing.
I, also, converted files from jpeg to.tiff and saved them as such, but I am not finding any .tiff files either.
Any info?
Thank you for any help you can give.

OK. WOW!
One by one! Larry, Terence and Old Toad,
Thank you, all of you, for your helpful replies.
Firstly, I am a little confused between Larry and Terence; sounds like opposite info. Is it?
Old Toad, Now I know about this easy way to do this. I have, at least, 1T+20,000 more images, some of which I will import into my new 750 gig Macbook Pro, so this seems easy. (Already over 30,000 images. Can iPhoto hold so much???)
It seems tho, that I AM BUSTED!
Unfortunatelly, I could not import directly the old Library to the new Library because of the below reason. (even tho there seems to be some difference of opinion on this between Terence and Larry)
I did the unthinkable. I worked out of the iPhoto Library.
What I did was this: my older Macbook Pro, had a 200 gig HDD, and could NOT handle all the photos I was putting into it (which I needed to do the work I want to do), so I first downloaded the images from my camera to iPhoto, then, I downloaded,as I went along, by year, to external HDD, and then I cut DVD's, by year, in pieces, via Toast, as my backup. (both, directly from the iPhoto Library), Then, I deleted many of the photos in each event, in each year, leaving only enough to remind me what is in that event.
(Then, when I needed images from that event, I could go back to the HDD to see and get the rest of the pix I needed to use).
I KNOW this is totally SACRELIGIOUS of Mac and the whole iPhoto Library set-up, but it didn't hurt the library functioning, (in the old mac), at all, and was the only way I knew to do it, as going thru iPhoto itself, didn't work out so well.
(That is why I didn't import directly my old library to the new Mac, not all the photos were there, and I thought it would be more confusing trying to add the missing photos to each event in the new iPhoto).
However, re-importing from the HDD to the new iPhoto, was a bit of a mess, as I got, (as 2 of you, above, said), mixed up info, as both "originals" as well as "events" downloaded, which gave me duplicates of some, and the dates are NOT necessarily in order, as was in the old iPhoto before. (but that I can reconcile, later, can't I?
Can I move events to other places in iPhoto?
However, going directly via the DVD's into the new iPhoto, gave me exact input and I got all the files as well as all the data. But, in some, very slow downloading, and very few, some date order mixup, but very few.
SO, this new iPhoto Library is a bit messed up with the duplicate images in about the first 3,000 or so images, but I assume I can fix this up.
Oh g---d.
In any event, it is now showing RAW and jpeg's as info in the metadata pane.
Thank you , all of you. I am not so computer savy, I do better in photography!
All the help I receive is welcome and worthwhile. And if there is anymore you want to tell me, besides scolding me for going into the iPhoto Library, it is all welcome.
I Thank you.

HELP - How can I import Nikon .nef files into Lightroom?

I installed Lightroom 5 on a Mac and tried importing (copy as DNG) .net files from an SD card I used with my Nikon D750 (LR 5 is supposed to support the D750). LR couldn't display a preview or import that file type so I used the latest Adobe DNG converter (version 9) to convert the .nef pics on the SD card. LR then recognized the images but STILL WOULD NOT IMPORT them. I get an error message saying the images could not be "read." I've tried 2 different SD cards. !Any suggestions? Thanks.
I even tried uninstalling Lightroom 5 and installing a trial of Lightroom CC. I tried importing .dng files that were converted from Nikon .net files with the Adobe DNG converter. I received the error message in the screen shot below.

This error message means you have to set the Destination directory to have WRITE permission.
So, determine what directory is specified in the Import dialog box on the right in the Destination section. Then go to your operating system, find this exact directory, and then change the directory to have WRITE permission.

Importing Raw (.nef) files.

Hi there...
I have recently purchased a 27" 5k iMac... awesome! However as a wedding photographer I am having a major headache trying to import my nikon raw files into the new computer. I have uploaded the Nikon Capture NX2 software but the computer is still saying that the files cannot be read, showing me an error code -36. Have spoken to Apple & they have said its an Adobe problem, as Lightroom isn't recognising the file format, but I can't import the images to the iMac desktop either. Any advice welcome:)

This is a LightRoom issue if that is the app you use. Aperture is the same way, if you used Aperture and the files would not import then the finger would be pointed at Aperture.
Sorry but that's how it is. Contact Adbobe, see if they provide Raw support for your camera and version of LR you have installed and then begin trouble shooting the issue. This is not an OS X, iMac or otherwise an Apple issue.

Unable to import D300 NEF files

I am trying to import pix from Nikon D300. All shot in RAW format. iphoto 8 opens up and shows me thumbnails but is unable to import any pictures. I am assuming the iPhoto 8 is not updated for new cameras. is that correct? How long will it take for iPhoto to support D300?
Thanks.

hope the 10.5.2. solve this
