How do I open .CR2 files in CS (1) ?

Does anyone know how I can do this? I downloaded the RAW plugin for Elements 5.0 but cannot easily batch process, and there is no File Browser in Elements 5.0? Where would I go to get a plug-in so I can directly open my .CR2 files from my Canon XTi camera in Photoshop CS (1)? Thank you.

The DNG format has been developed by Adobe to sort of "standardize" the RAW format. The data is still raw data, and it is opened just like any other raw image in the Camera Raw utility that you have been using. You are able to make all the same adjustments, and you have all the same flexibility that you are accustomed to.
The DNG converter is a freestanding program that runs independently from Photoshop or Photoshop Elements. You use it to convert your images, and then you just continue working in Photoshop as you are accustomed to working. The converter comes packaged with Camera Raw. You simply put the program wherever you want it. After you open the DNG converter, simply configure it for your specific conversion. That is really all there is to it. Here is the link to the most current download available:

How do i open CR2 files with photoshop cs5?

Adobe camera raw will not open CR2 files in photoshop. How do i open these files? i have tried updating camera raw witht he last 8 updates but it still will not open. Camera raw shows a pop up box saying the file is not supported.

Nothing to do with anything being faulty in CS5.
The reason has already been given by tpolakov above: The 70D was first supported in Camera Raw 8.2 which is only compatible with CS6 and later. CS5 is not compatible with Camera Raw 8.2 so CS5 cannot read Raw files from the 70D. That's all there is to it.

Thanks Tomsm13, I actually tried to convert the files to DNG but that doesnt work either. I used the latest compatable Adobe DNG converter and i get a message that it can not find any camera RAW files to convert.
You select a folder containing CR2 files, not a CR2 file.

Photoshop Elements 10. Cannot open .cr2 files (Canon 650D)

Running win 7. Latest version camera raw is 6.7. It will not open .cr2 files from Canon 650d. Adobe says need camera raw 7.1 which supports 650d. Cannot update Elements 10 with 7.1 as it is not for this software.
How do i open cr2 files?

You have two alternatives:
(1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.4
Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.4
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

How to open CR2 files in photoshop elements 10

Who knows how to open CR2-files from a Canon Powershot S100 in Photoshop Elements 10?

Hi,
The version of Camera Raw that you reported should support the S100 CR2 images.
If you load the editor, go to the File menu and select Open, then point to the file, are you saying that it displays the error message?
Have you tried opening the file with Canon's Zoombrowser?
Which operating system are you running on?

My friend is unable to open CR2 files in bridge but I can in CS6. How can I help him

My friend is unable to open CR2 files in bridge but I can in CS6. How can I help him

What version of Bridge and Camera Raw is your friend using? And what camera is this from?
Each camera must be supported specifically and older versions of Adobe products don’t get updated for newer cameras.
Your CS6 is obviously new enough and has been updated to a new enough version of the Camera Raw plug-in but perhaps theirs is older or hasn’t been updated.
Here is a list of cameras that Adobe supports along with the version of the Camera Raw plug-in that is needed to read them:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
For versions older than CS6, the highest CR version is +1 of the CS version—CS5 can use CR6.x but not CR 7 or 8.
The exception is CS6 which is still be sold by Adobe so can be updated to CR8 even though it initially shipped with CR7.

How to open *.CR2 files from new 60D ??

My Elements 7 will not open or recognize CR2 files from my new 60D. Nor will it allow me to open CR2 files in another format. I get error messages saying they are "the wrong type of file" or that a codec is missing. It opens CR2 files from my two Rebels just fine. I have downloaded the most recent codec (1.7.0) I can find from Canon to no avail. I downloaded a trial version of Elements 9 - same problem. Am I doing something incorrectly?
Thanks, JackM

Well, after downloading - and purchasing - PE9, and downloading ACR 6.2, am still having the same problem; not recognizing the 60D CR2 files. I have actually downloaded the 6.2 several times, with and without unzipping and extracting files, to no effect. I will try calling Adobe Monday to see what the heck is going on. This is extremely disappointing.
I may have to resort to use DPP for raw conversion, save as a TIFF, then open in PE for editing (this does work). If that's my only option, I hope Adobe will refund my purchase price. I'll try to keep you updated on what happens.
Thanks for your help.

Opening cr2 files in Yosemite

Hello,
I had recently bought an iMac but I'm unable to open cr2 files when I'm trying to do a double click to open in Yosemite. Although I can open them in Lightroom 5.7 and could not in CS6(understand I need to upgrade it). I know there should be a way to open cr2 files by directly double clicking on the image, but as of now I'm unable to find in the net.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Yes, I do not have any problem when opening with iPhoto.
How are you "opening" in iPhoto? Simply browsing the photos in iPhoto will may be using use the embedded preview images. Can you edit your photos in iPhoto or export them using "File > Export"? Only if you can export a photo or edit it in iPhoto using iPhoto's editor, you can be sure, that the the RAW support for your camera is properly installed.
Your camera needs this RAW compatibility update to be installed -see this link: Digital Camera RAW Compatibility 6.01
Have you installed all recent RAW compatibility updates? And for the applications to find the installed RAW support it needs to be registered with the Launch Service database using the lsregister command. This database keeps a list of supported media formats. Sometimes this list will be outdated and recent entries missing.
In that case it can help either to reinstall the RAW support, see this post:
Re: Digital Camera Raw Compatibility 6.02 - Nikon D800
Or to run register it manually by running the lsregister command from the Terminal:

Canon 1DX support was added to ACR in version 6.7, 7.1. An updated CS6 should be at level ACR 8.6. If your ACR is not at level 8.6 try using CS6 menu Help>Updates. If that does not install ACR 8.6 try downloading the ACR and DNG 8.6 converter and see if ACR 8.6 will install into your CS6.

Can't open CR2 files in photoshop and camera raw

This weekend I rented a Canon 5D Mark iii. I have downloaded the files and all of the thumbnails in camera raw say CR2 and when I try to open Photoshop does not recognize this product.
I have:
Photoshop CS4
Camera Raw CS4
Canon 5D Mark ii
I have checked my updates folder and all my updates are current. Do I need to upgrade to CS5 or is there a way around this?

Hi I recently had a problem opening CR2 files in PHotoshop cs4. I had to reinstall into a new computer, so obviously it installed the basic programme and not the updates.
After trying everything, even calling the help desk, there was apparently nothing that can be donw as they no longer support cs4.
I kept trying and found a you tube video, which i cant find again to add the link but i followed the link and with what I did earlier I can now open CR2 files in my photoshop cs4
I found the relevany update that I needed to install and downloaded it, camera raw 5.2 ( Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Camera Raw 5.2 update ) this is the one for the Canon 5d Mk2
After downloading it would not update the progeramme so I was in the same possition, but i noticed the files were there and i just needed to put them in the right place in photoshop so carried on looking for were to put the Plus In.
This led me to the video.
To the point.
Download the update and save to a location where you will remember.
open Adobe photoshop and go to "edit"
Them " Preferences "
then "General "
Then " Plus-Ins"
At the top you will see " Add Plug-Ins Folder " Check this box then navigate to the "win64" ( this is because mine is a windows 64 bit computer and the download is specific ) and Choose it.
Shut down photo shop and try to open a raw.
Bridge doesnt work for some reason but im going to keep looking.
Hope this works for you as well.

Can't open CR2 files in PhotoShop CC. Raw plugin version is 8.3.0.141. MacBook Pro OS 10.9

I'm trying to open .CR2 files (Canon EOS Digital Rebel XS) with PhotoShop CC on my Mac. When I try to open them I get an error saying the file can't be opened. The raw plugin version is 8.3.0.141. Adobe's charts say I need at least "4.6,5.1" so I would assume my version should open it. What gives?

First thing I should do is to link you to the Camera Raw forum where the members there have a far better understanding of Camera Raw problems than I do.
If the generic advice doesn't work, it's time to bring in the specialists. Click on that link and post your problem with the CR2 files.

Cannot open CR2 files in Elements 8 or Bridge

Hi, I hope someone can help me! I shoot in RAW, and have always edited my pictures in Camera RAW via Elements 8. I recently upgraded my old Dell to a new Mac, and now I'm having trouble. I cannot seem to open the RAW files in Elements, this is what I get when I try to open a file with Camera Raw (I know it says Photoshop Raw, but I do have Camera Raw selected):
When I try to open a RAW file in Adobe Bridge, it's not even an option, it's grayed out. BUT, it will let me open jpegs in Camera Raw in Adobe Bridge! So confusing. So far I have tried updating the Camera Raw plug in. I followed the directions exactly, but no dice. When I look at the "about plug in" section on PSE, it shows that it is the updated version, 6.2.0.29. But when I look at a jpeg in Camera Raw through Adobe Bridge, it says Camera Raw version 5.0.
Any ideas? I have a camera full of RAW files waiting to be edited and I'm so frustrated. Any help will be much appreciated!

You can update ACR in PSE i farther than you can update ACR in bridge (adobe cut bridge off as soon as CS 5 came out, but PSE 8 got a few more updates).
You don't mention the camera model.Photoshop raw and camera raw are two different things. How are you opening these files? You do know that you don't need to mess with the format section of the open window? Just select the file you want and it will set itself to the right format for you, so ignore that.

How can I open raw files from my Nikon D7100 in CS4 or CS5?

How can I open raw files from my Nikon D7100 in CS4 or CS5?

Andy,
In the simple and short form, what happens with the ACR (Adobe Camera RAW) module is that it gets updated with regularity, to accommodate the camera mfgr's. changes for their newer models. That ACR works within the host program, such as Ps, PsElements, Lightroom, etc.. At a point, Adobe ceases to support older host program versions. When that happens, the user has a few options:
Upgrade the host program version
Use another host program, such as PsElements or Lightroom
Use the free DNG converter, per Curt's suggestion. That is not host program dependent
Glad that the DNG Converter works for you.
Good luck,
Hunt

How can i open .mts files in premiere cs4?

Hi all,
I am using premiere cs4.
when i import .mts file in cs4 it says file format is not supported.
could any one please tell me how can i open .mts file in premiere cs4.
Thanks
Murali.

What kind of audio did the camera record? For example, the Sony NX5U can be set to record linear PCM audio, which will not import into CS4. If the same camera is set to record AC3 audio, then the clips should import and play as expected. This thread may help:

How do I open .wim files on my macbook pro?

When my hard drive crashed for the second time on my HP computer, I knew it was time for a change. The HP help menue gave me the option to backup everything onto an external hard drive. I did this and now when I try to open the files inside, they are all "#.wim" files. The #s go from 0.wim-53.wim. How do I open these files? Some might be microsoft word or powerpoint files but I have not got Microsoft word for mac yet. I understand that this will probably prevent me from opening some of the files but wouldnt I be able to open the others? If you know anything about ".wim" files, please help me.
