Opening multiple jpegs in Camera RAW

I can open a single jpeg in Camera RAW by changing the format option to Camera RAW. If I want to process several images at the same time, in Camera RAW, I lose the format option for Camera RAW.
Is it possible, in Elements, to open multiple jpegs in Camera RAW format?
Mary Lou

As mentioned above that multiple JPEGs can't be opened. I am also a huge fan of Camera Raw and recently moved to Lightroom which gives wonderful flexibility to use all these controls for various file formats with ultimate ease... Would recommend to start with Trial....

Procedure for opening jpegs in Camera RAW

I am helping a friend who is running Elements 6 on an iMac. I can't seem to find the setup which will allow him to open jpegs in Camera RAW.
I know this must be simple but I'm having trouble. Thanks for your help.
Mary Lou

Barbara, while I have your attention, one of my struggles is that my students are partly working on a Mac and some on a PC and Elements isn't identical on both platforms.
I frequently use the slideshow in Bridge on my Mac. I took the time to watch a tutorial in Elements 7 working from Organizer. It has so many more options than slideshow on a Mac. Can PC users access it from the Organizer even if they aren't currently using the Organizer? I normally teach students to control their downloads by placing images in specific folders, either in Pictures or on an external hard drive. Will the Organizer still be available for viewing a folder of images stored elsewhere?
Thanks,
Mary Lou

How to stop CS4 opening JPEGs in Camera Raw?

Hi guys,
I'm hoping someone out there can help. Recently for some reason CS4 decided it wanted to open all JPEGs in Camera Raw.
I am trying to restore whatever setting has changed so JPEGs open directly in Photoshop not Camera Raw.
And before anyone states the obvious yes, I have deselected "Open JPEGs in Camera Raw" under Camera Raw prefs.
I am on a mac (OS X 10.5.7) and have installed the latest updates for CS4 (Camera Raw is version 5.0.0.178).
Any (constructive) input would be welcome. Cheers.

Generally, once a JPG has been opened in ACR and has an embedded adjustment
recipe it will continue to be opened in ACR even though you have the
preference set to not prefer ACR for JPGs.
Your verbiage is different than what I see for Camera RAW Preferences in ACR
5.4 on Windows, so maybe you need to update to the latest ACR or maybe Mac
and PC versions of ACR are different.
In my CS4 Extended (11.0.1) / Edit / Preferences / Camera RAW preferences
for ACR 5.4, down at the bottom, you can set JPG and TIFF Handling - JPEG to
Disable JPEG Support instead of Automatically open JPEGs with Settings to
make it ignore the settings in JPEG and/or TIFF files.

How do I open jpegs in Camera Raw?

I can't seem to find any instruction on how to open jpegs in Camera Raw. It says that it will do it, but I haven't found the way to do it. Command R is never highlighted when I'm in Bridge and click on a jpeg. Help!
Thank you,
Gregg

I am encountering the same problem in Bridge. Although I marked the preference to open jpeg in Camera Raw. Everytime SC3 opens with the picture.
In early July I folowwed a thread discussing the same problem - without solution. Could it be that this is a bug in Bridge and hopefully Adobe is working on an update?

Opening jpegs in Camera Raw 4.1?

I just received some jpegs from Getty and I decided to see what they looked like when I opened them using ACR as opposed to just opening them in PSCS3. What I found was that with the default settings the files from ACR had less saturation? The jpegs had no profile embedded, so when I opened the jpeg in PS, I assigned Adobe RGB (1998), which is what was used in ACR. I am just trying to figure out what is the benefit of opening up a jpeg in ACR?

Although recovering highlight and shadow detail will not be as dramatic when working with JPEGs in Camera Raw, I find it very useful to use the different controls to make adjustments to my images. I have also found that I have made a dramatic change in the amount of time it takes me to process a batch of images. I now routinely load groups of JPEG images into camera raw, make adjustments and synchronize all images wherever possible. It has made photo editing seem almost effortless compared to what I was doing before. I now find that I can do most of my editing in Camera Raw without ever having to open the images in Photoshop.
In many instances, I find that I can simply use the Image Processor to open my images and prepare them so that I can send them to a local lab for processing. That is one area where I find Photoshop/Bridge very useful. The only problem I'm having with Camera Raw is that I have not yet figured out how to use the redeye tool. So in my last batch of pictures of my little granddaughter, the only editing I did in Photoshop was to use the redeye tool on a couple of the pictures. Camera Raw pretty much did everything else for me.

PS Elements 7.0 requires Camera Raw 6.7 or 7.1

PS Elements 7.0 requires Camera Raw 6.7 or 7.1 to process Canon EOS 5D Mark III images. Camera Raw 6.7 installer for windows fails. Help.

Have you tried installing the Microsoft's codec pack for Windows 7? If not it is worth a try:
<http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26829>
Microsoft releases updates for its codec packs every 6 months so it is a good idea to get them.

Is elements 8 compatable with camera raw 6.3

You have two alternatives:
(1) Upgrade to PSE 10. (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:

Opening jpegs into camera raw

I have CS3 Windows and have been reading Kelby's book 7-Point System where he opens jpegs into camera raw. However, the explanation is poorly written for someone who has never done that. Can someone explain? Thanks.
Don

If you use Bridge just right click on thumb and "Open in Camera RAW" is an option in menu.

Cannot open jpeg in camera raw format

In Elements 9 I have the option to "open as..." camera raw but the camera raw window does not open up when I pick the photo and choose that option. Any help would be much appreciated!

akarony2
In accord with what has been written already in this thread, I suspect that you intended your question for Photoshop Elements and not Premiere Elements Forum since the Open As route to JPEG in the Camera Dialog is one of the features of the Photoshop Elements Full Editor.
Just in case, I wanted to contribute the following thoughts on the use of Camera Raw in the "Elements" environment:
1. Your camera supplying the raw images needs to be supported by the version of Camera Raw and that version needs to be supported by the Photoshop Elements version that you are using (two separate and needed thoughts).
2. On the Premiere Elements side of things, you can import raw and dng images into Premiere Elements but you have to have an appropriate version of Camera Raw plugin installed for Premiere Elements. In earlier versions of Premiere Elements and Photoshop Elements, these programs did not share the same program files location for the Camera Raw Plugin. In more recent ones, they do.
3. You cannot open the Camera Raw dialog for editing purposes (raw or otherwise) from Premiere Elements. The Camera Raw plugin in Photoshop Elements will get you the Camera Raw dialog for editing purposes.
4. Also in later versions, one can now use an automatic process for updating Camera Raw to the latest version for your particular version of Premiere Elements. Best, use the program's Help Menu/Updates.
Hope the information will be helpful.

Photoshop Elements 6.0 and Camera Raw Version Question

I have been using Photoshop Elements 6.0 and it's does what I need to do.
Revcently we bought two new cameras and the Camera Raw version 5.6 that we have installed does not support these new cameras.
The Camera Raw list says that I need Camera Raw 6.2 for the one and 6.3 for the other (so 6.3). But as far as I can understand, PE 6.0 will only support up to Camera Raw 5.6.
And to support 6.3, I'd need a minimum of PE 8.0.
Am I correct?
Thanks

Download and install the free Adobe 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 original raw files as backups and for use in the manufacturers software)
Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.2
Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.2

Photoshop Elements 9 and Adobe Camera RAW 6.6

My Significant Other just purchased a Nikon 1 V1 camera. I have an extra copy of Elements 9 that I can install on her computer. According to the Release Notes, support for the Nikon 1 V1 started with ACR 6.6. According to the same Release Notes, ACR 6.6 runs under Photoshop Elements 9.
"This new version of the Camera Raw plug-in replaces the original Camera Raw plug-in that was installed with Photoshop CS5, Photoshop Elements 9 and Premiere Elements 9. "
and
"The Camera Raw 6.6 plug-in is not compatible with versions of Photoshop earlier than Photoshop CS5 or versions of Photoshop Elements earlier than Photoshop Elements 8 for Windows and Photoshop Elements 8 for Mac. "
The Photoshop Elements update page, however, suggest that ACR 6.5 was the last version of ACR that ran under Photoshop Elements 9. http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=40&platform=Windows
Which is correct, the Release Notes or the Update Page?

After you install photoshop elements 9 on the vista machine follow the steps below to install the camera raw 6.6 plugin:
1. Download the 6.6 DNG Converter and install the profiles:
   http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5310
2. Download the 6.6 camera raw plugin zip file:
   http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5316
3. Unzip the folder by right clicking on folder and choosing Extract All
4. Inside the extracted folder doulble click on the Payloads folder
5. Then double click on the CameraRawForElements6.4All-011211045300 folder
   (should be the second folder with a size of 16.0 mb)
6. Right click on the Assets2_1.zip and choose Extract All
7. Rename the file from 1002 to Camera Raw.8bi
8. Right click on the Camera Raw.8bi and choose Copy
9 Go to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 9\File Formats (64 bit vista)
or
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 9\File Formats (32 bit vista)
10. Drag the old camera raw plugin to the Recycle Bin and right click in the empty space in the folder and choose Paste
Start the pse 9 editor and under Help>About Plug-In>Camera Raw should hopefully say version 6.6.

Quality Loss when saving Jpeg from Camera Raw

I am try to do some color correction on 400 wedding photos. I open like photos in Camera Raw then synchronize, make a few additional adjustments and then save the photos as psd files. When I save the files, the quality drops dramatically. I can see pixels and jagged edges (looks like steps) on anything curved. The photographer will not give me the RAW files, so I have to work with these high quality jpegs and I would prefer to use camera raw as it is nice and easy to fix many of the photos quickly. How can I save these files so as to not lose quality? Oh, I am on a Mac.
--K

Ramón,
now I am quite baffled. For years ago I conducted respective tests and demonstrated, that repeated saving with the same "quality" does not introduce image deterrioration; others did the same tests and came to the same result.
Now, to be sure, I did it again, and the result contradicts my earlier findings. Although the deterrioration is after five consecutive savings practically irrecognizabe without hugely amplifying it, it is there, and that is an issue of principle.
While it is possible, that I and others made some error in those tests, the question is (for me) what causes the difference.
I verified, that the encoding parameters are unchanged. Thus the difference must come from the calculation required to transform between the original pixel values and the encoded values by
a. the conversion between RGB and YCbCr,
b. the discrete cosine transform (a variation of Furier transform).
However, any differences resulting from the calculation (iteration, rounding) should be eliminated by the subsequent lossy step, the "quantization" (which is an euphemism for "throwing away most of the data"). Even if there is a difference between the first and second savings, there should not be any between the fourth and fifth savings - but there is.
One explanation could be, that the encoding and decoding functions work with different precision, though this sounds very outlandish.
Anyway, darn.
Re the encoding parameters: they *have to be* stored in the JPEG file, otherwise the data could not be decoded, except by that program, which knows the parameters. However, JPEG is not designed for human consumption but for computers (this fact makes testing a program, which reads or writes JPEG data a serious PITA). The metadata can be analyzed only by a hex editor, and one has to know the structure of that data.
Re knowing, if the file has to be compressed or not: JPEG is *always* encoded. There are different variants of the encoding method, but there is no "unencoded" version.

In Bridge, can't open jpeg in camera raw

I have CS3 installed on several computers. On one of them, apparently Bridge and/or Raw never updated to the ability to open a jpeg in Raw. I can do this on the other computers. When I suggest running updates, it says none are needed. I'm confused.
Mike

Jim,
Actually I'd only discovered this feature recently as Bridge was not program of choice - my 7 yr. old system didn't have resources to handle PS and Bridge well simultaneously, having only 512 MB RAM. Was lucky to run Photoshop alone, s_l_o_w_l_y on a P4. This all changed with 4GB RAM and a dual core. What a relief.
Old system dubbed 'Frankenstein' sits networked in pasture in case of need for XP dependent programs or external bkups which no longer run in Vista without wiping data and reformatting. Fortunately won't need them to thanks to networking the two. Only thing not supported by Camera RAW is .bmp which I'll convert. Files from scans years ago of old photos before understanding formats. Live n' learn.
Much of the time I use Lightroom in lieu of Bridge, but there are times it comes in handy for quick access. Now that Lightroom 2 works interactively with Photoshop it's made this less necessary, but still have uses for both.
John~
You are indeed fortunate Vista is your friend. Must have plenty of RAM to run 64 bit. I on the other hand run 32 and intend to downgrade next fresh install so previous peripheral investments work again. Did not play nicely and Microsoft failed to support their own products, deserving a hall of shame award IMO. Still waiting for MS's next OS, as functional and non functional skip generations with that company.
Close friend also loves Vista, but couldn't help noticing he runs an XP machine on the side like myself.... hehe just in case for specific needs. I'm sure he wouldn't mind my saying we are both happy for you though. ;^D Whatever works. Each person has different needs as always.

No longer capable of opening TIFF or JPEG in Camera Raw

Hi,
I was able, initially, to open TIFF, JPEG and even PSD files in Camera Raw , but today I installed an HP image application that came with my iPAQ and have found that I no longer can open these files with Camera Raw from Bridge (or from anywhere else for that matter).
what can I do to restore the previous behavior?
I am doing this now to see: open Control Panel and click on Photoshop CS3 and select reinstall. I don't know if this will work. Any ideas?

I think this is a problem caused by memory fragmentation during the use of Bridge and Photoshop. I find that right after I start the two programs everything works the way it should. But then things gradually start to bog down, and eventually the TIF or JPEG images will not open in Camera Raw. When this happens I generally turn to the "Open As" option in Photoshop knowing that things will be better tomorrow. And they usually are. I think this is probably a problem that is more common with Windows users than those who are using a Mac. I believe Adobe concentrated more on the recoding for the Mac than they did on verifying everything for Windows users. Apparently "real" Photoshop users only work on a Mac. Those of us who are on Windows are just wannabes. :)
