End of file error on previously opened Raw files.

I recently had an external hard drive get damaged. Many raw files were able to be recovered but when I go to open ones I had previously manipulated in ACR I get an end of file error. It seems it's only on the previously used photos...is there a way to recover them so I can re-edit them?

You might try IfranView - it's free. It will open corrupt images and you can visually see the extent of the corruption, e.g. 90% of the image might show, with garbage showing at the bottom.
You could then crop the image and use that - losing the corrupt part.
You should also consider using a cloud storage service like dropbox, google drive, box.com, Creative Cloud etc. to backup your images.
I'd try to refrain from working from an external drive.

  • I have Elements 8. I have bought A Nikon D750 and take Raw files. I have downloaded Raw 8.8 file converter, but cannot open Raw files

    I have Elements 8. Raw converter for my previous Nikon D300s worked ok. Now I have D750 cannot open Raw files. I have downloaded lastest Raw converter from Adobe 8.8
    Still cannot open Raw file. Get message "cannot open as it is wrong type of file" How do I get the latest Raw converter to work with Elements 8? Any info gratefully received.

    Are you saying you converted from NEF to DNG? If so, after you convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format, the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.8
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.8
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • Opening Raw files in PE10

    I have current Camera Raw 6.7 update in Photoshop Elements 10. It won't let me open my raw files from my D5200. It says, "cannot open ###.NEF because it is the wrong type of file" however, I can open raw files from my D5100. I have current updates on both cameras. What else can I do?

    Further to Reply #1, support for D5200 was added in ACR 7.3 which is only supported by PSE11 & PSE12.

    After reinstalling CS6 the bridge photo downloader isn't able to read raw files and fails to convert the raw files to DNG. Previously downloaded raw files, now DNG, open up successfully in Camera Raw 7. How do I get the photo downloader to read and convert raw files. MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard. No such problem before this reinstallation.

    You should install Camera Raw 4.6.

  • Nikon D7200 and can not open RAW files.  Error msg says camera isn't supported.  Using PSElements 12

    I recently purchased a Nikon D7200 and I can not open RAW files.  I get error messages indicating camera isn't supported.  I've downloaded RAW 9.0 but no luck.  I'm running PSElements 12.  Any suggestions?  Is the camera too new for Adobe?

  • CS5 is opening raw files as a smart object to files im currently working

    I just bough new CS 5 and find this big error. When i open raw file in Camera Raw and i have opened some jpg in CS5, it always opened as a smart object to this small jpg i have opened before. The same is doing my CS 5 when i drag some file from desktop, it always ended as a smart object in file im currently working with. Normaly it has to open as a new file not as a smart object in this file im already working with.

    How are you opening your RAW files? If you are dragging and dropping them onto Photoshop, on top of an already opened file's workspace -  all files will be placed as smart objects. If you drag the files to anywhere else in the interface, for instance the grey area on top of the workspace, they should open as usual. If you are opening them via Bridge or by double-clicking them in Explore, they should open as normal.

  • I cant open raw files

    Some months ago I was able to open raw files. Now I cant, a message sais: "error PS express is unable to open this file"

    Can I obtain go back in the PS version? I dont like it this way at all.

    I searched for the TUXCONFIG file but could not find it in the tuxedo installation folder.
    I read that i have to create the TUXCONFIG,if missing, using tmloadcf.exe and the ubbconfig file, but the only UBBCONFIG file is located in "\samples\atmi\rpcsimp\" folder.
    How do i create the TUXCONFIG file?
    Did i miss something with the installation? What location should this file exist after your tuxedo installation?

    Hi
    The TUXCONFIG file normally is created automatically when you create your domain.
    In this case I think you ran into trouble because the path of installation is too long!
    Note the error in your log:
    115818.SU1491!PSWATCHSRV.5832.6140.-2: LIBTUX_CAT:1519: ERROR: TUXCONFIG value (C:\Documents and Settings\klondon\psft\pt\8.50\appserv\hrms\PSTUXCFG) is longer than the allowed length of 64
    Your path is 69 chars long!
    I would suggest that you re-try the configuration with a shorter tuxedo and PS_HOME: perhaps in the root directory (c:\PSHOME)
    In the past I've also noticed that installations have problems with paths that have spaces - ex: 'Documents and settings' , so I would avoid that as well.

  • Can't open RAW files in CS4

    I  recently bought the 5d mk2 and I cannot open RAW files. Had no problem with my 20D but 5D does not work. Tried to put new plug in into the plugin folder but it says that it is not recognised by windows or there is an error in it. Anyone help?

    The only other thing I can think of is that when you installed 5.7 you put the older version in a location where it should not have been.  If you are keeping an older copy it cannot be anywhere in the Adobe folder structure.  It's best to just get rid of it completely.  You can always download another copy if necessary.  I know, this is a dumb question, but are you certain you are using Photoshop CS4?

  • Can't open raw files in 32 bit CS4

    Am using Vista 64 bit OS and because I recently purchased Nik Software's Complete Ed was necessary to change from initial set up of PS CS4 64 bit to 32 for their usage compatability. Had Camera Raw 5.0 on 64 bit version, copied camera raw 8bi plug in file format and placed in correct file format folder for the 32 bit version of PS. ...sounds easy enough...but when I attempt to open a raw file in PS or bridge it will not open and get message - Could not complete your request because of a program error.  Camera raw does show up and only once under the About Plug In submenu. Have tried Purge Cache option. Can still open raw files as always in 64 bit version, save and reopen 32bit version to continue but hoping for solution to eleminate that hassle. Thanks for your needed advice!  

    Plugin's have to be rewritten for a 64-bit environment so copying the 64-bit ACR to the 32-bit folder won't work.  You need the 32-bit version of ACR in the 32-bit CS4 folder.
    I'm not sure if the ACR 5.6 updater will work to update both versions, or if you need to download and install the plugin's manually. 
    You can get to the manual install ZIP by following the PSE link near the top of the regular ACR 5.6 page linked on the updates page:

  • Not able to open raw files from my CAnon 5D mark III in PS CS6!

    I have camera raw 8.6 installed and am running photoshop cs 6.0.  All of a suddened photoshop will not open raw pictures that were shot on a CAnon 5D mark III.  Any ideas on what could be the problem.  The pictures do open in light room.
    Thanks
    Bruce

    What exactly happens when you try to open raw files from Canon 5D Mark III in PS CS6. Do you get any error message? An error screenshot would help.
    Make sure your PS CS6 is up-to-date from Help > Updates.
    Restart the machine and retry.
