Elements 12 can't open Aperture Files

Hi,
I just upgraded to Elements 12 from 10 which was previously able to open anything from Aperture 3.5.1 via External Editor.
The directory appears to be okay, since it launches the the program successfully. But I'm just left with a black screen in Elements. I shoot RAW primarily, but jogs don't open either.
Opening files from the desktop works perfectly fine.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Paul

How are your preferences set in Aperture, Paul (Preferences > Export > External Editor Format)?
I am having the same problem. Photoshop Elements 12 will open with an empty window, when I use the TIFF format as External Editor Format. Only, when I set the format to PSD will PSE 12 open with the selected image showing. These settings are working for me:

  • New Elements 12 does not open Aperture files

    Hi,
    I just installed 12 over 10 on a Mac Pro running 10.9.4 and Aperture 3.5.1 which previously opened files via contextual external editor option successfully. Now 12 opens but no image appears. I've tried both Raw and Jpegs.
    Images from the desktop open just fine.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    When you set the External Photo Editor in Aperture, did you point to the Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor.app
    inside the Support Files located in
    /Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 12/Support Files

  • Elements 11: Can't open raw files from Panasonic Lumix TZ60.  Will there be an update?

    I have downloaded the Silkypix developer studio software that came with my camera (Mac Version) BUT my main camera is the Nikon D7100 and am used to using Raw in Photoshop elements 11.  Will there be a Raw update which includes Panasonic Lumix TZ60 or will I have to use different raw converters?  Thanks for your help.

    The TZ60 needs the Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) plug-in version 8.4 or newer, which is only compatible with Elements 12, and only with OSX 10.7 or Windows 7 and newer. 
    If your computer and OS are new enough then you could upgrade to PSE12 and update PSE12 to use ACR 8.4 and be able to open the TZ60 raw files, but a new version of Elements usually comes out about this time every year, which means PSE13 is probably due out within a month so you might also wait a few weeks and upgrade to the newer version.
    In the interim, again if your computer and OS are new enough, you can download the DNG Converter 8.4 or higher (usually you’d just get the newest version which is currently 8.6) and use it to create DNGs from your raw files and those will open in the older PSE11 ACR plug-in.
    The DNG Converter is available, here:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates
    And PSE12 is available, here:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads

  • I have adobe premiere elements 12 can not open wmv file made in windows 8 ?

    wmv file not recognized

    tikkadog
    From what I have read that Life Frame offers .avi, .asf, and .wmv files. Those are just file extensions. The video compression and audio compression of the file are the first things to define.
    If you cannot find that information in your User Guide, then please put the problem video file through the gpsot utility to find out
    Video (Name, Codec, and Status)
    and
    Audio (Name, Codec, and Status).
    http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
    and whatever other information you can find there, example, frame size, frame rate, etc.
    You could also try recording to .avi instead of .wmv, but there again we would be up against the video and audio compression used.
    Let us see what file information you can put together so that you can try to resolve the issue.
    We will be watching for your results.
    Thank you.

  • I can not open raw files in elements 12 any help please?

    I can not open raw files from my Nikon D610 in elements 12. (I have already downloaded raw converter 8.3 but to no avail) any help please would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Can you confirm which Camera Raw PSE 12 is actually using by loading the editor and going to Help -> About Plug-in -> Camera Raw.
    If you do Help -> Updates it may install the latest camera raw of 8.4 - not on XP or Vista systems.
    Do you use any Nikon software to download the images? The older versions have been known to corrupt the files.
    See the following for more 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?

    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)
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.4
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • Can't open RAW files from Canon 70d in Elements 11.  Is there an update?

    I have a new Canon  EOS 70D but my Elements 11 won't open RAW files. Is there an update i can download?

    You need to upgrade to PSE12. Alternatively, 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 originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software) You could also use the Canon software that came with your camera to convert to tiff, which would open in PSE11.
    Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.2
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.2

  • How can I open RAW files from Nikon D7100 in Photoshop Elements 9?

    How can I open RAW files from my Nikon D7100 in Photoshop Elements 9

    Three choices:
    1. Upgrade to PSE11
    2. download the free Adobe DNG Converter and then convert your RAWs to DNG, which will open in PSE9
    3. Use manufacturer's software and convert to TIF (or JPG)

  • I can't access my iPhoto or Photos libraries with Elements 11.  Elements say it can't open those files?

    I am using Elements 11 on a Mac.  I cannot access any of the pictures in my iPhoto or Photo libraries.  Elements says it cannot open those files.  There must be a way, but I can't find it.  I'd appreciate a solution.  Thanks.
    Friarahs

    No, you should never poke around in the iphoto library from outside iphoto. That's the fast track to corrupting it and losing all your pics. If you want to use iphoto with PSE you can either set PSE as your external editor and send the photos from iphoto or do it the way you have to do it with Photos (no choice with Photos):

    Chances are you are simply using a brandnew camera and it isn't supported in any version of ACR yet.

  • Can't open NEF files in element taken by Nikon d7100

    I have element 11 and when I want to open a NEF file taken from my Nikon d7100 camera, it says that this camera raw program doesn't take in charge files from this type of camera. It udes to work, but it just stopped. Why?

    Do you mean your Elements 11 used to open D7100 files and quit, recently, or that it used to open raw files from another, older camera but won’t open D7100 files?

  • Can I open raw files using photoshop elements

    Can I open raw files using photoshop elements

    Yes, depending on the Camera Model and version of PSE.
    All camera makers like to make slight changes to the RAW format for their new models. Adobe then take a few months to produce a camera RAW plug-in to process the new format.
    Give you PSE version and camera model and we could be more help.

  • Error while opening pdf in reader in windows 8:Can't open this file. There's a problem with file format

    I have a problem with a pdf file which does not open with reader in windows 8 but it opens properly with adobe pdf reader. All other pdf can be opened in reader.But when i open a pdf(see this link for pdf for which i got error http://incometaxsoft.com/temp/Form.pdf)
    it gives error as "Can't open this file. There's a problem with file format".
    The same file opens properly in adobe pdf reader.You can check the pdf file which i have mentioned in the link above.But the reader which comes with windows 8 can open some other pdf in the same PC.What may be the error causing this??

    This has turned out to be an enormous issue for me as I sell PDF files as ebooks. I have done a fair amount of investigating this for my system.
    My files have to be compatible not just across readers but across operating systems.
    To date, I have over 200 PDFs that have functioned flawlessly across Mac, PC (Windows 7 and below), Android, iPhone/iPad, Linux.
    I personally test my PDFs using a variety of readers and PDF editors including
    PDF XChange (my favorite)
    Foxit (runner up for me and I recommend for most people)
    Adobe (the bloated monster)
    Nitro 9 (great for moving graphical elements around)
    ABBYY
    And the Nuance PDF Create toolsets
    Those are off the top of my head. There are a bunch on Android that I test with too.
    I am running the Windows 10 Pro Tech Preview and I have this same problem so I know it isn't fixed yet in any kind of pre-release way (-sigh-)
    Here is what I've learned for my situation
    The PDFs I created using NUANCE'S PDF CREATE PROFESSIONAL VERSION 8
    all fail using the built-in Windows 8/10 PDF reader.
    When I look at the PDF properties for these Nuance created files, the underlying engine used to write them is called "ImageToPDF". Using ABBYY it indicates their own engine as does everyone else that I've tried. It is easy for you to check to see
    what created your PDF by doing a "Control D" (look at the document properties). Perhaps there's a common engine causing issues.
    If I use the exact same source files to create a PDF using any of my other tools I have no issues. I checked the PDF versions made by the tools and they are all set to 1.5.
    A customer mentioned being able to convert them in a way they worked by saving them without having to do any kind of extraction, but I have not been able to duplicate that. Perhaps he did a "print" which seems like it could work.
    In summary, the workaround everyone is talking about, using an alternate reader, of course works. But not everyone wants to change.
     The culprit I have found is my Nuance PDF Creation tools that are using the ImageToPDF engine.
    I hope it gets FIXED as I really don't want to have to regenerate all of my PDF files.
