HELP! SOME .cr2 Files not able to be opened by LR or Adobe

I have about 200 .cr2 files which aren't able to be imported or opened in either LR4, Photoshop CS4 or DNG Converter. I have succesfully imported 3000 files from the same shoot shot across different cards including this particular card.
I don't understand why this is happening. I need to know if there is a way of recovering the file information and retiveing these images as they are for clients. This has happened in the past before but now this particular client wants the images that have failed to import. ( of course!)
Lightroom what have you done!!!????
Files will not preview in OSX "Preview"
file name looks like this:
_MG_1179.CR2

The raw files are either corrupted or from a camera model newer than the raw-converter supports. 
The statement about some files on the same card working ok suggests it is more a corruption problem since it would be normal that all photos on the same card would be from the same camera, although perhaps if some files are shot in small-raw mode or stills-during-video mode and perhaps the raw converter doesn’t know how to process those.   Are you using the latest DNG converter (7.3) to process the files or an old one from the CS4 era?
Do these non-importing files work in Canon-supposed software, such as Digital Photo Professional from the newest camera model used in the shoot?  By “work” I mean can you save a JPG from the CR2 files in DPP, not merely view the thumbnails or previews which are looking at the camera-embedded JPG preview, not decoding the raw data?
If the raw files are corrupted then if they are corrupted on the card then the data is lost, but if they were corrupted in the transfer process then you may be able to retransfer them and have them work.  If you have already reused the card and written over the images with more images then you also cannot retransfer them, but if you have only formatted the card there are programs that can recover deleted images from such a card.
If the raw data is corrupted but the preview jpg is intact there may be a way to extract those and work with them, which is not as good as working with raw data, but better than nothing.
The underscore prefix of the raw filename means that the camera, itself, was in AdobeRGB mode as opposed so sRGB mode, which doesn’t really affect the raw data, just the camera-produced JPGs.
If the situation is that you are looking at raw files from a prior photoshoot that used to work and now don’t, then your hard-drive may be going bad and that is more serious.
It is unlikely that Lightroom has corrupted anything unless you are using 1.4.0 which had the 1.4.1 update issued for it due to corruption when re-writing the capture-timestamp in the raw file, something that newer versions of LR can be told not to do.
Just to be sure it is not camera incompatibilities you might clarify what camera models and what versions of the camera-raw plug-in (help / about plug-ins / camera raw), and DNG Converter and Lightroom you are using and if this is from a current photoshoot that still has raws on the cards or from an old one.

  • Can some help with CR2 files ,Ican`t see CR2 files in adobe bridge

    can some help with CR2 files ,I can`t see CR2 files in adobe bridge when I open Adobe Photoshop cs5- help- about plugins- no camera raw plugins. When i go Edit- preference and click on camera raw  shows message that Adobe camera raw plugin cannot be found

    That's strage. Seems that the Camera Raw.8bi file has been moved to different location or has gone corrupt. By any chance did you try to move the camera raw plugin to a custom location?
    Go To "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS5\File Formats" and look for Camera Raw.8bi file.
    If you have that file there, try to download the updated camera raw plugin from the below location.
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=5371&fileID=5001
    In case  you ae not able to locate the Camera Raw.8bi file on the above location, then i think you need to re-install PS CS5.

  • SSRS 2012 some users are not able to edit reports in the server

    Hello All,
    I am install reporting services SharePoint native mode but some users are not able to edit reports on server error is "Application cannot be started contact your application vendor" but this users edit reports on their client machine
    using report builder 3.0.
    Please help me

    Hi harshad_mule,
    Because Report Builder in the Report Manager is a ClickOnce application, the error message means that one or more of the files listed in the application manifest cannot be found on the server, so the application cannot be started. Based on my research, frequently
    this means that the application is somehow corrupted, or that the ClickOnce store is corrupted.
    To fix this issue, we can try to refer to the following steps:
    If Report Builder is corrupted, we can update the Reporting Services to repair this.
    Check that the Report Builder application is existing
        Open the Report Server folder. By default, the folder is located in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.<X>\Reporting Services\ReportServer\ReportBuilder
        Make sure the file "ReportBuilder.application" is existing in the folder mentioned above.
    If it is existing, please use the following URL to access the Report Builder directly:
    http://<server>/ReportServer/ReportBuilder/ReportBuilder.application
    And this issue can also be caused by browser. Because not all report functionality is supported by all browsers in Reporting Services. So please use IE browser to start Report Builder to try it again.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

    I backed up my catalog from an older Photoshop version using the backup to hard drive option.  Then I restored my catalog to Photoshop Elements 13 on a new computer, but had files not able to be restored.  Does this means they are in my catalog but missing links to the actual files or not in the catalog at all? & is there something I can do differently to try the restore again without this happening?  Thanks!

  • How do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info

    How do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info...

    If your device is signed into an old ID of yours that is an earlier version of the ID you want to sign in with, do the following:
    If you are using iMessage and FaceTime, make sure you are signed into these services with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • CR2 Files Not Recognized in Photoshop CS5

    Hello!
    I've been having an issue trying to get a few cr2 files to open in CS5. I have about 800 cr2 files and all will open but about 100. I can't figure out what the issue is with this group of images compared to the rest. They won't open in Bridge or Lightroom 3 either. Any thoughts or ideas on what I could do to remedy this issue?
    Thanks for the help! I included a screenprint of the message I receive when trying to open one of the images.
    Thanks,
    Ashley

    Worse that being screwed, is not knowing what is wrong so you can't fix it without guessing any maybe not guessing right.  Use a new CF card use a card-reader and maybe the situation won't happen, again, is the best you can do going forward.
    As far as what to do for the photos from this set, if the card has not been reused completely, again, then you can try recovering the photos off the card, to see if any photos from the batch that doesn't work, remain, and see if they copy off any better the second time.  If they do copy off ok, then there is likely something wrong with the transfer process and less likely that it is the CF card.
    The software I've used when I've accidentally deleted photos off the card when I shouldn't have, is PhotoRescue from www.DataRescue.com  I have one of the older versions so I'm not sure what it corresponds to with the newer set.  It costs money, but you can run a scan of the card, first, to see if it finds thumbnails of the images it is going to recover, but you have to pay before you can actually save off the photos it has found.
    If you haven't used the card at all since you discovered the problem, meaning you've merely moved the photos off of it and it is now empty, perhaps even formatted, but no low-level formatted, then you have a good chance of being able to recover most of the photos--basically undelete them.  If you've shoot more photos over the top of the deleted ones or low-level formatted the card, the chance is lower than you'll be able to get the photos back.

  • HT203088 Why are CR2 files not supported?  How do I get them to open??

    I don't know if this should go in Aperture or not.  I have some photos that I took with a Canon 5D Mark III that are .CR2 and I CAN NOT get them to open in Camera Raw.  I have updated all of my software with the exception of the adobe products.  How do I get the .CR2 files to open??? 

    Kbrian
    According to Apple the Canon 5D Mark III is supported in Aperture 3 or later
    http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
    I am not a Canon user - but perhaps this model also allows you to save a small  RAW file - perhaps called sRAW?
    This may not be supported by Apple
    Be aware, that although the file has a CR2 file suffix, every RAW file is unique to the model that generates it and has to be individually supported by Apple via a system level update
    Hope this helps

  • Some CSS files not loading – limit on number?

    Hello,
    I am using Edge Inspect to work with a Rails site on an iPhone.
    When I browse to the live site it works fine, but when I browse to the development version some CSS files do not appear to have been loaded. I.E. The page displays without the styles from those CSS files.
    However, it does display with the styles from other CSS files defined in exactly the same way! So this is not about relative vs absolute URLs or ‘localhost’ vs IP address on the network.
    Given that the production version on a real domain displays fine via Edge Inspect, is it possible that Rails development behaviour is messing up Edge Inspect? In development, Rails creates <link> tags for every CSS file, whereas in production it concatenates and minifies them.
    As an aside: this whole issue is tricky to debug because I don’t see any CSS <link> tags in the <head> when I inspect the device. That includes the ones which are being applied, so I don’t get where the styles are coming from at all. Is this a foible of how Edge Inspect works? Just on iPhone (5S)?
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
    Leo

    I solved it!
    Turns out my hunch was correct – either Edge Inspect or the iPhone is choking on the large number of individual CSS files.
    By changing the relevant stylesheet_link_tag I was able to get it working.
    From:
    <%= stylesheet_link_tag 'application' %>
    To:
    <%= stylesheet_link_tag 'application', debug: false %>
