Elements 6.0 won't open RAW *nef files from Nikon D40 - help!

I tried to open *nef files from a D40.  Even though I selected RAW files in the open file menu, AE6 gives me an error message and won't open the files.
How can I get these files to open with AE6?

Hmm, that usually indicates that you need to get a newer version of the Adobe Camera Raw plug-in.  But according to this tech note:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html
the D40 needs at least ACR 3.7.   PSE 6 ships with 4.2, so you should be able to open them.
I suggest following the troubleshooting steps in this tech note, which will likely have you update your ACR:

  • How to Install Plug-in for PS cs5 to open RAW (.NEF) file for Nikon D810 Camera

    I need someone to walk me through how to install a Plug-in for PS cs5 to open RAW (.NEF) file for Nikon D810 Camera.
    I haven't used photoshop in ages and I got a new camera. I have been on the phone with Adobe (no help) and spent a couple of hours online trying to figure this out. I'm confused, frustrated and about to throw my computer out the window.
    Also, I placed this in the "Photoshop for Beginners" since Photoshop CS5 doesn't appear anymore. I know CS5 is outdated but I spent hundreds of dollars on this program and you would think adobe would still honor its product.
    Any guidance is much appreciated.
    AJ

    Odds are cs5 is too old. If you do a search on my the main Adobe website there is a list of compatible cameras for the last known update to camera raw for cs5.
    Each version of Photoshop only gets so many updates for camera raw then it is necessary to upgrade Photoshop to get the next update for camera raw.
    So you currently have 4 choices.
    1 upgrade Photoshop
    2 get Lightroom - latest version
    3 get Photoshop elements -latest version
    4 get dng converter - this will download the latest version an is the only option that is free.
    The dng converter can be found by searching Adobe website.

  • Raw (NEF) files from Nikon D7100 - Work on Elements 10

    Has a update or patch been made for using raw (NEF) files from Nikon's D7100 camera?

    Photoshop Elements 10 does support Adobe Camera Raw 6.4.1 to 6.7 and minimum requirement for Nikon D7100 is ACR 7.4.

    You need to upgrade to PSE11 or can convert the NEF files to DNG and import into PSE10.

  • Import of RAW (NEF) files from Nikon D 90

    Hi there:
    > I am new to lightroom and just got a 30 days trial version. I desperately try to import directly RAW (NEF) files into lightroom 2. I have downloaded Adobes latest RAW converter. I also checked all available support areas (hope at least I found them all and also read Adobe's and Nikon's memorandum of understanding of working closer together in the future, but I am looking for help now..) I use a MacBook Pro Leopard...
    Can anybody help?

    You will need the 2.1 RC1 beta to use the D90 files. I don't know if you can
    patch the trial or not.

    You can download the beta 2.1 there.

  • I get "program error" or "wrong kind of file" when attempting to open RAW (.NEF) files from my new Nikon D7100.  Works fine with Nikon D80.  What do I need to do?

    FYI, I am on Elements 9.0.forumnotifier

    Each time a new camera model is introduced the camera raw plugin has to be updated for its format. The D7100 requires ACR 7.4 which is not compatible with PSE 9. So you have three options:
    1. Upgrade PSE.
    2. Use the nikon software to convert your files and open the converted files into PSE for further editing.
    3. Download the free Adobe DNG converter and use that to convert your NEFs to DNG files that your version of ACR can understand.

  • Opening Raw (NEF) files from D5300 Nikon

    I recently purchased a Nikon D5300 and downloaded the raw converter version 8.3 but the files won't open.  Using Mac 10.9 with PS CS6.

    OK. And to open D5300 Raw files you need to install 8.3 after downloading it.
    What link did you download 8.3 from?
    Have you clicked Help > Updates in Photoshop?

  • CS3: Cannot open RAW/NEF files from my Nikon

    After I reinstalled my harddisk and my CS3, Bridge and PS will not open the RAW files from my Nikon D90.
    Wgat do I do?

    Niels, it's actually a nice thing that Adobe provides after-the-release updates, or you'd never have had D90 support with Photoshop CS3.  But you're right, if the automatic features of the software don't work right, you have to work through manual installations and then things can get a bit geeky.  But you're a PC/Windows user - you have to be tough! 
    To use the Help - About Plug-in feature, in Photoshop click the Help menu, then the About Plug-in entry, then go over and click Camera Raw...
    This is the dialog you should see, if your Camera Raw is fully up to date (note the 4.6):

  • RAW (NEF) files from Nikon D3200

    I previously had a D3000 and was able to open NEF files in Elements 9 with ACR. Now, Having upgrade to a D3200, Elements 9 won't open or even recognise the NEF files. I have contacted Nikon, but they say that the files from the D3200 are 'not compatible' !!! Has anyone else had the same problem and found an answer other than using Nikon's own View NX2?
    Lawson.

    You have two alternatives:
    (1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) 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)
    Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.4
    Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.4
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

    How do I update Adobe Bridge CS4 so that I can view NEF files?
    Unfortunately, you don't. Bridge can never be updated again once a new version of Creative Suite comes out, so bridge CS4 can't be updated past where it was back when CS5 came out. There is no way to make bridge CS4 see the raw files for the D7100, I'm afraid.
