How do I backup Camera Raw Database?

I have my 'how to save image options' setting set to 'in camera raw database' instead of individual xmp files which i find cluttersome and I view my folders outside of bridge so hiding them in bridge doesn't help me.
I've read (on here) that if you use the database method if you so much as move a folder or move a file then you lose your settings for the file. Well I can move a folder, or file, or rename the folder or file (all in windows explorer with no adobe products running) and bridge/acr still load up all the settings..
So this brings me to my question, when backing up my raw files, besides the image files, what do I need to backup to ensure that it also backs up my settings? Thanks

There are TWO caches. The Bridge cache and the Camera Raw cache. You need to purge the Bridge cache. You need to the Bridge menue to do that, not the use button in the Camera Raw preferences dialog, which purge the Camera Raw cache, which is not the problem.

Purging the cache does not lose any edits in CS2 when working with raw files.

  • How do I access camera raw from withing Lightroom

    Bear with me as I am new at this. I am trying lightroom and have read several reviews of 1.1 and Camera Raw 4.1. I read Martin Evening's update on 1.1 and he has a whole section on using CR to make adjustments to the raw file.
    I imported several raw images in nef and dng formats into lightroom. I cannot see any way to open Camera Raw from any of the menues in lightroom. Could someone tell me how I get to Camera Raw 4.1 from within lightroom?
    I have no problem accessing the image in Camera Raw from Bridge. It was my understanding that you do not need Bridge, just Lightroom to use Camera Raw.

    ACR operates as a plugin within Photoshop or Photoshop Elements and does not operate on its own.
    Lightroom is a separate software program which incorporates the ACR conversion processes for working with raw files. It does not require your having Photoshop installed on your computer.
    I think Adobe has created a lot of the confusion in re naming the program "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom" from the earlier name of "Adobe Lightroom" since it is not a part of Photoshop.

  • How do I access Camera Raw Plug-in for PSE 11?

    I can't figure out how to access the Camera Raw plug-in for Photoshop Elements 11 ( on a Macbook Pro OSX.)  I recently installed  PSE 11, and when I select "about plug-in" within the app, it brings up a box that shows version 7.1.0.354.  Does that mean it's already installed?  If so, how do I access it to edit a photo? In past PSE versions I simply chose "Open file / as Camera Raw" but that option doesn't come up.

    In the File Open dialog ensure you have All Readable Documents selected for Enable.
    Click on the file you want to open

  • How do you install Camera Raw 8.3 to CS5 photoshop so I can open files ?

    How do you install Camera Raw 8.3 to CS5 photoshop so I can open files? Thanks

    CS5 does not support ACR 8.5, it only goes as far as 6.7.
    You will need to convert your raw files to DNG format with the free converter. http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/digital-negative.html

  • 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).

  • How do I get Camera Raw for Pentax PEF file to open in Photoshop CS4?

    How do I get Camera Raw in CS4 to recognize Pentax PEF files? I have downloaded and installed the Camera Raw Plug Ins but I still cannot open the file.  I have done this on my older computer but can't seem to get it to work on my new one.

    I just looked that up. You need at least Adobe Camera Raw 8.3 which only Photoshop CS6 and above has.
    Adobe Camera RAW 8.3 include Pentax K-3 support - PentaxForums.com
    So in order to read it in ACR 5.7, you will need to use the free Adobe DNG Converter and convert those Pentax raw files to DNG.
