How to open Camera Raw in Bridge, it comes up with the following error

How to open Camera Raw in Bridge, it comes up with the following error Bridge parent application is not Active   Bridge requires that a qualifing product has been lanched at least once to enable this feature.  It opens in Photoshop CS6 & Elements 10 but not Bridge?

You need to look at all programs in your uninstall list, and see if you spot any old trials that are no longer active.
Camera Raw in Bridge and PS are the same program, so its not the program but access.  Would have been nice it you had stated OS, but here are locatons of camera raw for both OS.

  • My Bridge update 5.2.0.4 has wrecked previews for all DNG files. They appear only sideways and small and I can't open Camera Raw in Bridge. Anyone else have the same problem?

    I updated Bridge yesterday. CS6 5.2.0.4. Mac OS 10.9.5
    Now all previews (DNG files) in Bridge appear sideways and only small thumbnail size.
    Also Camera Raw has been disabled.
    I have tried purging cache for the folders as well as purging entire cache.
    I have also spent over an hour on the phone to tech support which mainly involved being switched between departments and trying to understand anyone on the phone.
    Can anyone help?

    Your Performance preferences screen capture reveals you have a single hard drive with little available space to accommodate both the Photoshop scratch file and the swap files of the OS.
    It's obvious that Bridge finds itself at times with insufficient space to build its cache.
    However, it's unclear why that should affect only DNG files and not other type of image files.  Puzzling, unless the DNG files are the only large image files you have.
    Parts of the following may illustrate what happens when the scratch file is on your boot drive:
    The rule of thumb I follow to figure out scratch space says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open.  I have seen the scratch file exceed 800 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
    As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS.  I also have 16 GB of RAM installed.
    Additionally, if you only have a single HD, i.e. your boot drive, you'd need it to be large enough to accommodate both the swap files of the OS as well as Photoshop's scratch.

  • Can't open camera raw in bridge. circle grey

    Can't open camera raw in Bridge as broken circle is greyed out.  Why

    Not a clue.
    I have no idea what you mean by "broken circle" and no clue as to what platform you're on, Macintosh or Windows, exact version of the OS, Bridge, ACR and Photoshop, what type of machine, RAM, etc.

  • Opening Camera Raw within Bridge

    I just recently installed Photoshop CS3, and within bridge when I try to open up any raw image, it opens it up in camera raw, but within photoshop. I can't find the option that allows me to open camera raw within bridge without having to launch photoshop.
    I've tried the help pages and what they've described for me to enable this function can't be found...so weird. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Henry

    I would really appreciate anyone figuring this one out. I'd rather not have to reformat my mac AGAIN. I just had to because photoshop cs3 was not installing properly. I am running OSX10.4.10 or somthing like that.
    I have Design Premium CS3.
    While in Bridge, there is no option to open in CameraRAw, whether I right click or click on File.
    In the Preferences, there is no option to make "double click opens in CameraRaw."
    Work flow is seriously hampered by this defect.
    I purged my cache, but I don't see how to reset all settings.

  • Camera-raw plugin for NEF files, made with the new Nikon D7200

    Hi, does anyone know when there will be a camera-raw plugin for NEF files made with the new Nikon D7200?

    I think that camera is too new. Even the DNG converter will not support it. If you have Nikon software with the camera, you could convert to tiff and then use the tiff files in Elements whilst awaiting the next Camera Raw update for PSE13.

  • Can not open Camera Raw in Bridge CS4, or see thumbnails

    MacBook Pro
    OS 10.5.5
    Photo Shop CS4 version 11
    Camera Raw 5.2.0.65
    I had another version of Camera Raw from PS3. When I bought the Canon EOS 5D Mark II, I deleted the old camera raw plug in, so as to not conflict with the new camera raw plug in.
    When I open PS4, click Photoshop, click about plug in, ONLY one version of Camera Raw comes up.
    In OS 10, when I click GO at the top, then applications, then Adobe Photoshop CS4, then Plug Ins, then File Formats, I get two Camera Raw icons: a blue lego like icon that says "Camera Raw.plugin" and another icon that looks like the Macintosh HD icon, but is labeled "CameraProfiles.dmg"
    The problem is that I can't open files in Camera Raw when in Bridge CS4, nor can I see the little photo thumbnails either.
    Can someone please help?
    Desperate in NYC.

    The Photoshop folder is NOT the correct location for the Camera Raw plug-in, since several versions of Photoshop.
    The correct location, is, as described in the readme and in the FAQ of this very forum [hint]:

  • Can't open Camera Raw from Bridge CS3

    Need Help with the following issue. Until recently I was able to open & edit camera raw files in Bridge CS3. Tried to update Bridge from Adobe website and all of a sudden the "open in camera raw" option under File is greyed out. Also right-clicking the raw (CR2) file does not allow me to open the file in camera raw and I can't view the files as thumbnails any longer. When I double click the file Photoshop opens and subsequently camera raw. I have really lost the convenience of opening the file in Bridge and I'm afraid my workflow will suffer. Any help would be appreciated. I am running Windows 7. Thanks.

    I am having this exact same problem and just upgraded to Windows 7...many people are saying to update the Plug In for Camera Raw to 4.6, but that is not working for me to see it in Bridge or Camera Raw.

  • Can't open Camera Raw in Bridge

    One thing I noticed is that with CS5, when I choose Browse in Mini Bridge while in Photoshop, Bridge opens in the background. In CS6 when I browse in Mini Bridge, regular Bridge does not open, although I can open Bridge directly from Photoshop. The other strange thing is that I can open Camera Raw from mini Bridge, just not from regular Bridge. I get the same message as others get, that Bridge's parent application is not active and that I must launch a qualifying product at least once in order to open Camera Raw. I searched all the files I downloaded and installed for "trial" but nothing came up. Is there a certain file name or extension I should be looking for? Or is there some other way to solve the problem?
    Thanks

    Yes, but when I open mini bridge in CS5, I can see Bridge open on my taskbar at the bottom of the screen and I can click on it. In CS6 I can't see bridge open anywhere when I open mini bridge. It is like there is a separate version of bridge running invisibly or something. I don't understand it.
    It sounds like your on a PC (Windows).  Windows only allows one version of Photoshop and one version of Bridge to run are ang given time.  There are also Preferences in the Bridge Advance setting to start bridge at log on. When this option is check Bridge stays open in the background and may be hidden. So if Bridge CS5 is running and you start Photoshop CS6 Bridge CS6 will not be able to start. So make sure the check box to start Bridge is not checked in both Bridge CS5 and Bridge CS6

    What version of camera raw do you have?  You should have at least 6.7 for PS to open Canon 5D Mark III raw images.

  • How do I open camera raw in bridge?

    When I try to open a photo with camera raw, it says, "Camera raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature." I've opened Photoshop, which is all I could think to do. I'm brand new to this and would appreciate any advice. Thanks!

    Thanks, ssprengel!
    Updates did not install a version of ACR that would handle the files. I found the link to ACR 8.7 on another thread, but it wouldn't install on Snow Leopard.

    Fortunately I had an available install of Lion, and that did the trick -- ACR 8.7 is now installed and I can see my images! Thanks for your help.

  • Cannot open Camera Raw in Bridge with 5D Mark II files

    Just bought a Canon 5D Mark II and Adobe Photoshop CS4 - no experience with Adobe so far. Neither Photoshop nor Bridge opened raw files initially.
    After copying Camera Raw 5.3 manually into the (Windows) Photoshop "File format" I can now open RAW files in Photoshop (the automatic Adobe update program reported errors at installation and did not work) but NOT in Bridge. Maybe the 5.3 plug-in needs to be placed elsewhere - anyhelp on that for windows application would be great.
    When opening my raw files in Bridge, the automatic DNG conversion did also not work.
    My issue is that I don't know how to see and work on raw images in Bridge with the Bridge command "File/open in camera raw"  also not working. I was reading about the same issue in another forums and also in this space but after hours of trial and error and testing all the published wisdom I got stuck now. I am very keen to learn from the experts. Thanks in advance for support.

    Hello, and welcome to the forum, Ludwig.
    It seems that you missed both the readme ( http://www.adobe.com/special/photoshop/camera_raw/Camera_Raw_5.3_ReadMe.pdf ), or the detailed instructions on the bottom on the very page where you downloaded the update: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4365
    The correct location is: Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats . You will need to remove the other copy from the Photoshop tree.
    Please post this information on the other forums where you also saw unresponded questions on the same topic, so that you can help others!
