HELP! How do I un-install and then RE-install Camera Raw 5.7 on my Mac?

My CS4 would no longer open my RAW files (Canon 5D Mark II) and I was told (on this forum) that I needed to update my camera raw to 5.7. So I downloaded 5.7 but could not figure out HOW to get it installed in the proper place. After trying but not succeeding, my CS4 now tells me there is NO camera raw installed, not even the old one I was running! So I tried to RE-install 5.7 but I get the message that it's already installed. So it's SOMEWHERE on my computer, but I don't know where. It's not in photoshop or where is should be, but I can't try to install it again because my computer tells me it's already installed. How do I remove it from my computer so that I can try again? OR MAYBE BETTER YET, HOW DO I FIND IT AND GET IT INTO THE PROPER PLACE?

Thanks for your reply.
I'm using version 10.9.4
I found the previous 5.7 plug in, trashed it, and started over again.Then I, once again, downloaded Camera Raw version 5.7, and then did the following:
I double clicked on the downloaded Camera_Raw_5.7 dmg and then double clicked on the cameraprofiles.mpkg
Then I installed the camera raw.plugin by going to (Macintosh hard drive) /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS4/File Formats, which was empty (somehow my previous version of Camera Raw was already gone).
Then dragged the new camera raw plugin from the dmg to the same folder.
I restarted my computer and there STILL is no Camera RAW in my Photoshop!! Good grief! Any more suggestions? Maybe you and I need to screen-share....

  • I have a CS4 and would like to install Camera Raw 8.6. How do i do it?

    I have a CS4 and would like to install Camera Raw 8.6. How do i do it? The reason being in LR5 when I want to edit the images in Photoshop Layers, the message comes that I need to install Camera Raw 8.6 for compatibility.  Even
    After installing Camera Raw 8.6 I am unable to install the plugin in CS4. Please advice.

    Camera Raw 8.6 is only compatible with Photoshop CS6 and Photoshop CC. There is no way for you to install it in Photoshop CS4.  The message you are receiving means that you need Camera Raw 8.6 to have full compatibility with Lightroom 5. But in that message you are given the option to edit a copy that includes the Lightroom adjustments. That is the option that you should use. Lightroom will create a copy (PSD or TIF, depending on your choice in Lightroom preferences) and will send that copy to Photoshop CS4. Then you can use Photoshop and all of its features to continue editing your image. When you close and save the image in Photoshop, it will appear in your Lightroom folder along with the original raw file.
    Another option you could use would be to use the free Adobe DNG converter to create DNG (digital negative) copies of your raw files. Those DNG files would be compatible with the Photoshop that you have now. Your other option would be to upgrade your Photoshop.

  • I set up my new computer using the apple ID i always use, and then later migrated all my files from my old mac book to the same new one, but under a different user (same ID). how do i consolidate the two users on my new mac book?

    Well if you use the Finder Go menu to Computer, a window opens up double click on your boot drive and then on Users folder, open the other user folder and open Public and drop your files into DropBox
    When you do this it will copy them and change the permissions and user assigned to it, so log into the other user and place them into your respective normal folders.
    Once you have all your files over and don't need the old user, use System Preferences > Accounts to delete it if you wish, however it's good two Admin accounts on the machine in case something bad happens in the other. Some people for security reasons on use a Standard account for most uses and a emergency Admin account.
    One can still do most Admin things in Standard user.

    I need more space on my iPhone to update to iOS 7.0.6. I was able to import and then delete my Camera Roll but not my Photo Library. How do I do that?

    To delete your photo library you need to connect to iTunes, then remove the selection for the images, then sync the device.
    While you are connected to iTunes do the update through iTunes. It takes much less memory as the update is loaded onto your computer, unpacked, then sent to the device.

  • How to instal camera raw in mac

    Hi, I'd be obliged if someone could advise me how to instal camera raw 8 into an imac.
    many thanks

    If you have Photoshop CS6 or higher, you already have Adobe Camera Raw 8.  What you want is to update ACR to version 8.6.  You can do that automatically through the Help > Updates menu item.
    If you have a lower version of Photoshop, you cannot run any version of ACR 8.x.
    If you don't have Photoshop at all, then you need to buy it first.
    For the next time you post, please give explicit, detailed information:
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster).
    A screen shot could be very helpful too.

  • How cn I install camera raw on to my computer.  I have CS5 but no separate camera raw application ? Thank you

    How can I install camera raw on to my computer.  I have CS5 but no separate camera raw application ? Thank you

    Camera Raw is not a separate application that can be identified and used separately from Photosho. It is a plug-in that is accessed from Photoshop or Bridge or Photoshop Elements. When you attempt to open a raw image the plug-in is activated if it is able to recognize the files created by the camera you used. However, support must be provided for every individual camera model. Updates must be provided with this new support. The latest version of Camera Raw that can be used with Photoshop CS5 is Camera Raw 6.7. You can find out what version of Camera Raw is installed by going to the help menu in Photoshop and then clicking on plug-ins->Camera Raw. If the version that is reported is older than 6.7 then you can click on help->updates and obtain an installation of the last version of Camera Raw you can use. If your camera is newer than what was supported in Camera Raw 6.7 then you will have to use the DNG converter or purchase Photoshop CS6, or subscribe to the creative cloud photography plan ($9.99/month).

  • NEED HELP! - Installing Camera raw presets from USB Stick

    NEED HELP! -installing Camera raw presets from USB Stick.
    I am attempting to install the Camera Raw Presets. 
    It says to put them into User Name/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/Settings... 
    When I get to CameraRaw the ONLY folders in there are CameraProfiles & Lens Profiles. 
    I have searched everywhere looking for a CameraRaw-Settings folder and cannot find one. 
    I have latest version of CameraRaw installed and still no settings folder. 
    I even attempted to find it by looking in camera raw where it has saved the custom settings I made as presets and it shows that they are saved but will not show me where. 
    I am using CS5 specifically Photoshop v12.0.4 and Bridge. I have Lightroom 4. I have iMac OS  10.7.3
    Do I need to reinstall Camera Raw and how do you do that?
    Will I then lose my presets that I made in CameraRaw?  
    Thanks for your help

    Here is a note from the ACR 7.1 beta release.  http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/cameraraw7-1/?tabID=details
    Perhaps this answers question.
    Frequently Asked Questions
    Why is it no longer required to place the plug-in file in the specified directory on my hard drive?
    The Camera Raw update process has grown to include lens profile and camera profile files which are easiest to install via a single installer process instead of updating several different directories manually.

  • How do I install camera raw 4.6 (for Nikon D90) in Elements 6 for a Mac?

    I need to install camera raw 4.6 (for Nikon D90) plug-in on Elements 6 for at Mac?  I'ved downloaded the plug-in but it does not seem to work.  I've got Elements 10 on my desktop Mac but I am using Elements 6 on an older iBook G4.  Any help will be appreciated.  thanks.

    For PSE 6, get the .plugin out of the download, then go to your hard drive>library>Application Support>Adobe>plug-ins>file formats and remove the old plug-in, then put just the new .plugin file in there instead. Older versions of PSE can't update ACR from the help menu the way PSE 10 can.

  • How to install Camera Raw?

    I've just finished building a PC (Win7 Pro 64 bit) and have many Adobe products running.  I've just tried to download and install Camera Raw.  The file "camera Raw 4_6.zip" downloads.  But now what?  I can execute it and get the file "Camera Raw.8bi".  I can also unzip it and get the same file.  What is the next step?  None of the Adobe install help files address the issue apparently.

    You should be able to go to Help>Updates in photoshop or photoshop elements 12 and that should get you all the available updates including the newest camera raw 8.5
    (camera raw 4.6 is way out of date)
    For lightroom 5 it depends on which version you have (perpetual versus creative cloud subscription)
    For subscription open the creative cloud application and lightroom 5.5 should be listed as an update.
    Is that photoshop 6 or photoshop cs6?

  • I am trying to burn DVDs from iPhoto slideshows.  My pictures number in the hundreds and we know that iPhoto captures 99 and then "starts over".  This plays fine from the Mac Book but glitches arise on the DVD when playing it on a DVD player.  Any suggsts

    I am trying to burn DVDs from iPhoto slideshows.  My pictures number in the hundreds and we know that iPhoto captures 99 and then "starts over".  This plays fine from the Mac Book but glitches arise on the DVD when playing it on a DVD player.  Any suggestions on how to overcome the 99 "Chapter limitation" that IPhoto has?  Has anyone heard or tried an app called Vilisoft?  I read good things but I am not sure if it will do what I want.
    Jim

    Then use multipel 99 picture slideshows. 
    You can have up to 8 or 9 slideshows per menu.  If you add a sub menu reduce that by 1 and add 8 more to the sub menu.  The top menu can have links to up to 8 or so submenus (depends on the theme) and each submenu can have up to 8 or so slideshows. 
    However, converting a very large slideshow to a QT movie as Terence suggested does not envoke the 99 slide limit in iDVD.  It just becomes a single video/movie file.  So you should not have a problem with exporting at the large size, 720 x 540,
    and dragging the resulting file into the iDVD menu being sure to avoid any drop zones.
