Elements four, Raw file

I currently have Elements 4 on my mac laptop, I am having a problem loading raw photos from desktop to adobe bridge or elements 4. I get a message that reads "Could not complete your request because photoshop does not recognize this type of file", does anyone know how I can get bridge to recognize the raw files?

It's possible that your camera isn't supported by the version of ACR you currently have. Check here to find out the version of ACR you need for your copy of Elements.

Does Photoshop Elements support raw files from the Panasonic GH3 camera?

Does Photoshop Elements support raw files from the Panasonic GH3 camera?

Yes, if you have PSE 11 (not the mac app store version). You will need to go to Help>Updates in the editor to update ACR to 7.3.

ELEMENTS 10 - RAW FILE

Elements 10 - Just bougfht a new camera, Canon 70d. Elements 10 doesn't recognise the raw files even though the same file extension is the same as my other Canon 60d. Advice please.
Reg

Every camera model must be supported individually so the extension being the same doesn’t matter as much as Adobe having profiled the camera and added support.
PSE 10 will never be updated to support the 70D. You’ll need PSE12 which should be available in a month or two and make sure it is updated to ACR 8.2 at that time.
In the mean time there is a beta (release candidate) of the DNG Converter 8.2 that you can use to create DNGs from your CR2 file, and those should open in older versions of the Adobe Camera Raw plug-in such as what comes with PSE10. Keep in mind that the support for the 70D is “preliminary” which usually means the color profile will be tweaked to give a better conversion for the final release.
You can also use LR 5.2 RC which has preliminary support and use Edit In Photoshop Elements with LR Adjustments.
The release candidates for LR 5.2 RC and the DNG Converter 8.2 RC are available at Adobe Labs:

Photoshop Elements 10 RAW Files

How do I import RAW files from my Sony RX100 11 to Adobe Photoshop Elements 10? I think I need a plug in called ARF 8.2. If this is correct how do I purchase/install it?

Adobe Photoshop and Photoshop Elements use a free Adobe plugin called Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) to read Raw files from cameras. Different versions of ACR work with different versions of Photoshop and Photoshop Elements.
Since camera manufacturers all use their own proprietary Raw file formats for every model of camera they make, ACR must be updated for each new camera released on the market.
The Sony RX100 II was first supported in ACR 8.2
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
Unfortunately ACR 8.2 is only compatible with Elements 12 and newer. It is not compatible with Elements 10 so downloading ACR 8.2 will not help you.
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
Some options:
Upgrade to Elements 12 (paid upgrade) which can use the current ACR (version 8.4) and therefore will open RX100 II Raw files.
Download the free Adobe DNG Converter, convert all the Raw files from the RX100 II to DNGs then open the DNGs in Elements 10.

PS ELEMENTS and raw files

I have PS Elements 7. I cant open raw files from a memory card shot in a Canon 6D. I went to help in Elements, and under camera raw plug-in, it says my version is 4.5.0.175. Do I upgrade this, and how? Am I also going to need a DNG converter?

You need ACR 7.3 according to this list
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
So I don't think you are going to be able access the CR2 files directly from Elements. (This is actually the Photoshop forum, and we don't know much at all about Elements. You can find the right forum at Photoshop Elements)
So you are going to need to install the free DNG converter, but it is no real hassle.

Elements 12 raw files thumbnails only show elements logo

Hi Old Timer,
Please try right clicking on the file and selecting 'update thumbnail'.
Also rename or move the "thumb.5.cache" following file from given location:
Windows:
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs\MyCatalog\
Mac:

Hope this helps.
Please let me know if it doesn't worked.

Photshop Elements 11 RAW files

Photshop Element 11 does not regnize the RAW files from my camera what do I need to do?

Here is the list of cameras supported by different ACR versions:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
Please look into this list and see if your camera is supported by the ACR version you are using.
If it's not, then download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your original CR2’s as backup) or for use in Canon DPP bundled with your camera.
Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.2
Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.2
You can convert a whole folder of CR2 images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

Photoshop elements 7 raw files acess

A real newbie.
I know that you should be able to view or see and change using the sliders etc when I have a photo downloaded from a canon450d
whta do you do ?????

What to do depends on what you to do exactly with the image. you can apply various sliders provided in the camera raw plugin and various editing options provided by the plugin. you can open the image in editor in case you want to edit more or save the image from the plugin in case you are done with image editnig.
cheers

Elements 7 does not recognise RAW files from my new camera

Have recently bought a new camera (Canon EOS 60d), which is an import. Whilst I can process Jpegs in Elements the RAW files are not recognised. Help

PSE7 is three years old, and camera makers are constantly changing the formats of the RAW images they use. There's no way for PSE7 to open those new RAW files, beause the latest version of Adobe Camera RAW is incompatible.
You'll have to use the Adobe DNG converter to convert the RAW files and then open the DNG files in PSE:

Or you can purchase PSE10.

Reading RAW files from OLYMPUS

Can Photoshop Elements read RAW files from Olympus OM-D E-M10 or if not can the files be converted to a compatible format?

Photoshop elements 12 can't read those files as of yet, but should be able to when camera raw 8.4 is released.
It won't be too long because 8.4 is in the release candidate stage, which probably means within the next month or so, it should be released as final.
Did your olympus camera come with any software that can open those files?

CANNOT OPEN RAW FILES USING NEW CANON EOS 1D MKIII WITH PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 5

Hi, I have recently taken a number of RAW shots with my new Canon EOS 1D MKIII and have found that I am unable to import them into Photoshop Elements version 5 (using Microsoft Windows). Comments generated are: "the file is a format that cannot be included in the organiser" and "cannot open because it is the wrong type of file". The RAW file extension is .CR2 and I have been able to open these type of files taken on my older, and much cheaper, Canon 350D. I have spent hours considering different options but to no effect and am completely baffled. Do the two cameras produce different types of RAW files? Notably, the files do import into the Canon software 'Digital Photo Professional' but I want to undertake the more versatile manipulation in Photoshop Elements. I have managed to become even more baffled about Digital Negative ('DNG') files and wonder if there is some kind of converter I need. Would the solution be to purchase a more advanced Photoshop package like CS2? OR .......... do I need an 'Adobe Camera RAW' update? I have struggled to find the latest version for Photoshop Elements 5 to suit my Canon EOS 1D MKIII. There appears to be a 4.3.1 update but this only applies to Version CS3. Help!

You probably haven't had anyone respond to your question because it has been asked and answered so many times. However, I will try once again.
Adobe Camera Raw must have a profile for every model of every camera for which it supports the camera's raw format. It is not a matter of just supporting a file type such as your CR2 files. ACR needs to know specifically what model you are using. This is a problem that has been created by the different camera makers. They are the ones who are creating these proprietary raw formats. No, they do not cooperate with Adobe. That is why Adobe has to wait for a camera to be available, then obtain a raw file from that camera, and then create the profile so that ACR will recognize that camera. That is also why ACR is updated about four times each year, to provide support for newly released cameras.
In an attempt to create a "common" raw file format, Adobe has developed the DNG (Digital negative) file format. Adobe is providing a free DNG converter. You always want to download and use the latest version of the DNG converter because it will be the one that supports the most cameras. The DNG converter creates a digital negative copy of your raw image. It contains all of the original raw image data. The image data is precisely the same data that was in the original raw image. The difference is that the DNG file has a "standardized" file header that stores as much of the metadata as possible about the image. Metadata is the information that records the changes that you make to your image when you edit it. Some of the image data is proprietary, and is therefore not available to Adobe. Obviously, that information simply has to be ignored by ACR. There are no XMP files associated with the DNG files. The information is stored within the DNG file itself so the XMP sidecar file is not necessary.
If you decide to go the DNG route you want to make sure you are using the latest version of the DNG converter. It will convert raw files from the largest number of cameras. Those DNG files can be opened by any version of Camera Raw from version 2.4 onward. Consequently, someone who is still using Photoshop CS still has the capability of working on their raw files even if they have the most recent up to date camera.
Photoshop Elements will utilize ACR 4.3.1 and any subsequent updates to the ACR 4.x releases. Judging from past experience, there should be another release soon. No one knows for sure. These releases are never announced ahead of time. ACR is not as robust in Photoshop Elements as it is in Photoshop CS3. It is the same plug-in, but a number of options are not available. It will support the same cameras, however.
You don't need to worry about matching the DNG converter version number to your working version of ACR. The only relationship is that matching version numbers will support the same set of cameras. But the DNG files that are created can be used in any version of ACR from 2.4 onward.
Anyone who is involved with digital photography and shooting raw has become a victim of the arrogance of the camera makers. The camera makers want to protect their proprietary format, and they want to promote the use of their software. Some of that software has to be purchased, so it is another way for them to make money. Until such time as everyone agrees on a common raw format, the photographers are the ones who are at the mercy of the camera makers. And there will be a continual ongoing updating process that we will have to wait for.

Photoshop Elements 8 - unable to view RAW files

Hi.
I have been using Adobe Elements 8 since it came on to the market. I use Canon Cameras and my latest one being a 1Dmkiv.
When I got the Canon 1D I down loaded the appropriate RAW file I think it was 5.6 and followed the instructions and changed the Camera Raw.8bi file and it worked perfect and I was able to view and edit Raw files.
Last week my computer failed and I have had a new hard drive and hence have had to upload all my software. I installed Elements 8 back onto the computer and reinstalled the photograph catalogues I had backed up within Elements 8 before the computer crash.
When the photographs in the catalogues were viewed only JPEG files were visible, the raw files are shown as a a grey negative with a zig zag across them. I thought that I would have to upload again the lates RAW update, which I did and went through all the instructions as given by Adobe. I changed the Raw.8bi file within Elements 8 and I still am unable to view any Raw files within Elements 8. I desperately need access to these files. Any help would be appreciated
Best regards

Thanks so much for your reply. My problem appeared to be that most of the thumb
nails had lost their links and I had to individually update the thumbnails from within the program. It wasn't a problem
with the RAW file not being updated.

Unfortunately, the NEX-6 requires camera raw 7.2 and the NEX-7 requires camera raw 6.6 neither of which are not compatible with Photoshop Elements 9.03.
You need to upgrade your Photoshop Elements to version 11 or later or you can use the free Adobe DNG converter.
The DNG converter is a standalone program which will take a folder containing your ARW files and converts them to DNG raw files. The DNG files can then be read by Photoshop Elements 9.03.
DNG Converter 8.7
