IMac vs Nikon

I have just bougth an iMac and the program from Nikon - CaptureNX2.
It should be both for Mac and W... When I try to install I get an error message, "dont support power PC".
Is there anything to do about this?

Unfortunately Capture NX2 is a Power PC ( Rosetta ) application and not compatible with Mountain Lion. I too had this ' problem ' and switched to Photoshop. I also use Nikon View NX2. I think Photoshop Elements is compatible with Mountain Lion.This might also affect your printer/scanner software in which case you may be able to download Apple's drivers etc.
Sorry cannot be of more help.

Banding in Photoshop CC 2014 when using gradient or curves, 5K imac and Nikon D810. Help?

I am experiencing severe banding in
Photoshop CC 2014.
5K imac, Nikon D810.
16 Bit Tiff in both Adobe RGB and Profoto RGB.
It seems to be something new.
OSX Yosemtie 10.10.1
It appears when using gradients.
Help?

Thanks for your help Trevor.
That does not seem to make a difference.
I sometimes use the Nik Collection for
gradients as well.
The banding is very visible in the
Plugin as well.
It is odd because this seems to have
just started this week.
It is the same on my 2011 iMac as well.
Not sure if it is because I shot on a grey
background.
I will post an example.
I am also using Profoto RGB which
is supposed to have smoother gradients.

You can undo the RAW Compatibilty Update 4.08 without a time machine backup!
In Finder go to MacIntosh HD > Systems > Library > Core Services
In that folder delete the following:
RawCamera.bundle
RawCameraSupport.Bundle
Then download Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 4.07 from the Apple suport pages. Here's the direct link:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1666
The app store will then be telling you another update is available, meaning 4.08 which screwed us up in the frst place! Simply ignore the 4.08 update! Unless you are using one of the cameras listed as being added by 4.08:
     Canon EOS 70D
     Fujifilm X-M1
     Leica M
     Leica M Monochrom
     Nikon COOLPIX P330
     Pentax 645D
     Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX1R
     Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II
By the way, I take no credit for this "solution" - I picked it up in another discussion thread on this subject.
However, I have been in voice contact with a Senior Support Specialist at Apple Care. The problem with Update 4.08 removing compatibilty for previously supported Nikon (and possibly other) files has been flagged to Apple's engineering.

Running CS4 on iMac. Nikon D5100. Won't recognize .nef files. Help???

Currently I have CS4, 11.0.2 with Camera Raw 5.7.0.213 installed. I've tried to install camera raw version 6.4 - which is what their chart says I need for the D5100, but I get an error message: "Updates could not be applied. This patch is not applicable for you. Please check for updates from the Help menu in your product to see a list of latest updates available." My Help menu shows: "There are no updates available at this time". I found one recommendation about clearing out the cache for the Adobe Update Manager, but I've looked everywhere and can not locate any such file on the computer. I'm stumped. Can anyone help?

D5100 support was added in ACR 6.4 you need to download the 8.6 DNG Converter and create DNG file for your NEF files for CS4.

Can I use my Nikon D90 AVI files in Premiere Pro CC on my iMac?

Hi and thanks in advance to anyone who can lend me a hand. I am new to both Premiere Pro CC and Macs. I have used my Nikon D90 AVI files before with Premiere Elements on my PC with no problem, but the same films aren't working on my new setup with Premiere Pro CC and an iMac.
I can see and preview the films in the Source window but when I try to drag them onto the sequence window I get a little hand with a "no" sign.
I am using a version 7.1.0 (141) of PP CC and am on OS X 10.9
Do I need to transcode the files? If so, to what? And what is the best way to do that?
Many many thanks for any help!

Just remember, you will not always get the answer you want right away. Some people will point you to tutorials, some, like me, will attempt to help and still point you to tutorials, and some will just answer the question as best they can.
Some might insult you, and some merely insult your intelligence. Don't be offended. Do, however, search the forums as best you can in an attempt to find the answer before you post.
I realize that people don't always have the right words to describe the problem, and therefore have trouble searching. If searching fails you, just ask. It generally works out in the long run. And as you have discovered, sometimes a combination of posts may do the trick.

Is there a way to use the imac as a viewer for my Nikon Camera?

After I hook up my camera to the Imac, Aperture launches. Instead, I'd like to just use the Imac to view the photos that are on the SD card inside my camera. That way, I can easily delete the photos I don't want to waste hard drive space on. I could do minor cropping from inside the camera before saving the files to Aperture. And, Photostream wouldn't pick up all those photos I didin't want to save in the first place had I moved them all over to Aperture and just viewed it with the card. I want the imac to operate as a live monitor so I can view the photos on the SD card inside the camera. Any thoughts?? Just like you can using a TV that has the right inputs.

If your Nikon camera supports it, you can do what you want with Nikon's software.

IMac error message with 32Gb compact flash card from Nikon D4

Hi
I have a iMac 2.8Gig core 2 duo running 10.7.4 - I get a error message (the disk inserted is not readable by this computer) when using 32gb compact flash cards from my Nikon D4, have tried bith Sandisk and Lexar cards same error message. However both cards work fine on my MacBook Pro and a Windows machine. If I format the 32Gig card in my Nikon D300 it is recognised on the iMac. So it appears to be the way the Nikon D4 formats the card that the iMac dosen't like, however as I said it's fine in the MacBook Pro.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

On both Fomats, use Disk Utility on both the Volume & Partition & the blue Info icon to see what the differences are.

Have CS 5 Installed on my iMac and works ok. But installed on my new MacBook Pro it won't open NEF files from my Nikon D810. Displays NEF icons, but when I try and open them the response is: Make sure latest RAW updates are installed. If problem persists follow link: http://www.adobe.com/go/kb407111. Have installed Bridge 5.0.2.4; Raw Ref Version 7.0.0.308; DNG converter_8_7_1.dmg; Bridge 5.0.2 Update 2. Also same problem with Lightroom which I don't normally use. Lightroom_3_LS11_mac_3_6.dmg installed.

In the link you posted it states that the Nikon 810 requires ACR 8.6 or newer.
Version of ACR are specific to versions of Photoshop. You cannot use 8.6 nor even 7.0.in CS5.
I believe that ACR 6.7 is the latest that will work with CS5, so make sure you have this installed and get rid of ACR 7.
Having 2 versions of ACR will cause problems.
You have already downloaded DNG Converter 8.7.1.
Have you double clicked the DMG file to allow you to install DNG Converter on your computer?
Be aware that DNG converter is a stand-along application and not a plug-in.
You need to open DNG converter at select the FOLDER that contain your .NEF files.
Don't open the folder and try to select individual files, it doesn't work that way.
After converting your D810 files to DNGs you can then open the DNGs in CS5
The problem is your camera didn't exist when CS5 & its version of ACR was developed.
i don't use Lightroom, but the list mentions Lightroom 5.6 as needed to open D819 so your 3.6 version of LR won't cut it.

I have iphoto '08 version with an imac osx 10.5.8. It will not read my RAW files from my Nikon D800 - a very new model.How can I get it to read my RAW files?

my somewhat old imac osx 10.5.8 with iphoto '08 will not read my RAW files from my new Nikon D800 camera - a new model on the market( 5 months or so). How can I get iphoto to read my RAW files?

iPhoto 08 would not read RAW files from that new a camera. You need to upgrade so you can get more up-to-date version of OS X and iPhoto. Another possiblity is see if iPhoto 11 will run on 10.5.8, if so you should update. You can also attempt to run Software Update and see if it finds a newer release of iPhoto 08 that supports newer RAW formats.

When will the raw plug in for the nikon D610 in Cs6 on Imac be ready?

i am owner of a nikon D610 but i can not open my nef in cs6 on imac.is adobe working on a raw plug in for the D610 on Mac and if so,when will it come out?

When will newcomers notice there is an ACR Forum?
Drollery aside, it is of course understandable that many people seem to perceive ACR as part of Photoshop, but it is, if I understand correctly, maintained and developped by a team of its own and there is a Forum dedicated to it specifically. (edited)

Opening Nikon NEF NX Files in CS3 in iMac

I have just replaced my 2006 iMac which was running on OSX Tiger 10.4.11 with an iMac running OSX 10.6.4 Snow Leopard. I have installed my legit.CS3 version 10.00. I use a Nikon D300 and have loaded Nikon Capture/Transfer/ViewNX version 1.5.2 which I used on my previous iMac to transfer my images, which are in Nikon Raw NEF, from camera via a card reader. If I open Nikon View NX I can view the images in thumbnails but when I attempt to drag the thumbnails into Adobe they will not open and I am informed " Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file". I get the same message if I attempt to open the thumbnails from Adobe Bridge into Photoshop. These thumbnails in Adobe Bridge do not show an image. I have downloaded Adobe update 10.01. but this has not solved the problem.
I also take jpeg images on a canon ixus compact. I can see their images in the thumbnails in Adobe Bridge and either open them in Photoshop from Bridge or from Nikon View without a problem.
What do I need to do to open the Nikon Raw files please?

No, no, no…
You don't want ACR 4.3.1 or any other flavor of ACR other than ACR 4.6. Accept no substitute.
4.3 may have been the first version of Camera Raw to support your camera, but the support is maintained in ALL subsequent versions of the Camera Raw plug-in, and each succeeding version has unannounced improvements and bug fixes. So you ALWAYS want the highest version you can use with your version of Photoshop. In the case of CS3, the last version that will run is 4.6, and that is what you want.
To run ACR 5.7 you would need CS4, and to run 6.2 or later you'll need CS5.
So, install version 4.6 now.
The root Library is the one immediately following the name of your hard disk, NOT the User Library in your Home (your name) user folder.

IMac won't show Nikon D800 NEF image files.

Nikon D800 NEF files will transfer from my Nikon D800 to my iMac. They will show as a "list" in the folder that I transfer them to. They will not show as thumbnails, nor open with "image preview". Tiff and JPEGs will transfer and show as thumbnails and open with all my processing programs. The NEF's will also not open in Adobe Lightroom. I need to be able to see the thumbnails on my iMac. Everything worked until I installed Snow Leopard.
I have:
Photoshop CS6 13.0 64 bit
Camera Raw 7.1.0.354
Snow Leopard OSX 10.6.8
Nikon View NX2 2.3.0
Nikon Transfer 2 Vers. 2.3.1

IMac doesn't recognize Nikon D90 in Finder

Actually this isn't a fair question for this forum since I can import photos from my D90 without any problems into LR on a new iMac. However, there are smart people who read this forum this so I will ask anyway:
My D90 is not recognized by my iMac as a disk drive although my smaller Olympus E420 is. Unlike other cameras, Nikon has not provided an "export choice" (mass storage) as in previous models. This is important to me since the camera takes videos as well and I cannot transfer them from the camera to the movies folder (or iMovie, for example). I'm sure I can take the SD card out and copy the files that way but this is a pain and probably not good for the camera long term.
Please don't jump on me for this but I have never experienced this issue using Windows. Any suggestions or is that the nature of the beast?
Thanks much in advance, - Andy

Thanks much, Jao... at least I have my answer. Your point about firmware updates is a good one but when I upgraded my D70 a few years back, I could still write to the card and then load to the camera. I think there was a part A and a part B. So at least it can be done w/o USB and fortunately firmware updates are few and far between.
My new iMac has an SD card slot so in my situation it was actually better to have an SD based camera rather than the more vaunted Compact flash models! That's one extra card reader I can now live without. Anyhow thanks again for your time and explanation. - Andy

HELP! iMac won't show my Nikon D800 NEF files.

Nikon D800 NEF files will transfer from my Nikon D800 to my iMac, but they will show only as a "list" in the folder that I transfer them to.

But I need to be able to see the NEF thumbnails on my iMac. The NEF's will also not open in Adobe Lightroom. Image files will open with Camera Raw and Photoshop CS6 even though they don't show as thumbnails. Everything worked until I installed Snow Leopard.

The same comments I gave for the D750 apply to the D5100 because both cameras are newer than what the maximum ACR 4.x version you can update PS CS3 to.

Nikon D4 raw files don't show on iMac with os 10.6.8 Finder.

Hello, I am using an iMac with OSX 10.6.8. I can't view my Nikon D4 raw files on my Finder.
I have tried to install the Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 3.10, but got a massage saying I can't install because I don't have Iphoto 9 or Ilife 11.
All I want, is to see the tumbnail preview of my Nikon D4 .NEF (RAW) files on my finder.
How do I do this?
Best,
Noam.

Quit iTunes.
Copy the entire /MusiciTunes/ folder from internal drive to external drive.
Hold Option & launch iTunes.
Selelect Choose library... and select the iTunes folder you copied to the external.
After you make sure everything works, you can delete /MuusiciTunes/ folder.
