Images open in camera raw 4.6, not Photoshop?

Since I downloaded & installed camera raw 4.6 to deal with raw images from my Nikon D90 I have had the following problem with Photoshop cs4 (on XP + SP3).
Any images I open from within bridge or Picasa or directly from windows explorer get opened in Adobe Raw 4.6. From their I have to open image to get it into photoshop. This applies to all images, jpg, gif, tiff, psd etc.
I've looked at the file associations & made sure photoshop is selected & I've tried open with & browsed to the photoshop directory & selecting the photoshop.exe file but always they open with the adobe raw.
How do I get this set back to default so that all regular images open in photoshop & raw images open in camera raw?
Lastly I tried deleting thus ressetting my prefferances, no good.
Any help much appreciated.

Camera RAW for CS4 is 5.3

Is there any way to have an image open in Camera Raw from the Organizer as I did in Bridge?

I am just trying out PSE 9 as an upgrade from my PSE 8. I have been able to open jpeg files in Camera Raw right from Bridge. I seem unable to do this in Organizer and, since not all of my photos are in raw, I use this feature a lot. Is it possible to open a jpeg file by double clicking on the thumbnail as I presently do?

Batch of images opened in Camera Raw appearing out of sequence

Hello!
I'm using Photomechanic to select groups of images that I then want to adjust in Camera Raw. If I select 15 or so images, they do not appear in Camera Raw as per numerical sequence, but in some kind of random order, which makes adjusting take longer since similar images are not appearing together.
I'd like the images to appear in order as per sequence number. How can I fix this?
I'm using photoshop cs6 and a mac oxs10.6.8.
Thanks!
Glenna

Usually, overall yellow/warm casts can be easily and quickly reduce or
eliminated by bumping the White Balance's Temperature slider down a little
bit (e.g., from 4500 K to 4300 K).

Jim, thanks for your reply. I think this will help me. I also upgraded to
Camera RAW 5.4, and there appear to be some more profile options, such as
Adobe Standard. It looks like this works pretty well. I will have to do some
more testing at a later time with the CR defaults as well.

LR3 DNG Edit in Photoshop Does Not Open in Camera Raw

I have LR 3.2 64 bit and CS5 v12.0.1 64 bit and Camera Raw 6.2 under Windows 7. I do 95% of my editing in Lightroom. I do occasionally choose "Edit in Photshop" and in the past a DNG or CR2 image opened in Camera Raw (at least I think that is the case). Recently however, I noticed that if I have a DNG or a CR2 file, right click, and select "Open in Photoshop..." it opens the file directly in Photoshop, not in Camera Raw. I have tried deleting my LR3 preference, deleting my CS5 preferences, and deleting both, but the behavior does not change. Does anyone have an idea to explain this?
Thanks,
Alan.

Thanks for the quick response. For some reason I was thinking that it had happened that way in the past, but now that I think about it, I guess there would really be no reason for it to open in Camera Raw. Sorry for the unnecessary question.

When opening an image Photoshop Elements 12 is opening it in Camera Raw, it is not a RAW image and it is cropped How do I uncrop the opened image?

When I am opening a .jpg image not an actual raw camera image from Elements 12 it is being opened as a camera Raw image and the image is cropped, I can't find anyway to get the image to uncrop or zoom out so that the entire image is visible so that I can actually edit it to something that is useable. The images were taken with an iPad and copied I suspect using the organizer from Elements 11 but I can't be sure. If I could just uncrop the opened image so that the entire image is visible this would not be a big deal.
Is there a way to uncrop the image that is being opened by Camera Raw? Am I going to have to get my hands on the source of the images (the iPad) and copy the images again using explorer and not let them be copied with the organizer?

Uncheck the boxes at the bottom of the dialog Scale styles and resample Image so that only constrain proportions is checked. If you the change the resolution box from 240 to 300 you will get back to your original dimensions.
This is a meaningless thing to do, you still have the exact same number of pixels, you have only changed the metadata number in the file for ppi, and your prints are not affected by this number.
You could also use the same method to change the dimensions to 6 x 4 or 9 x 6 etc.
There are some cases (actually most cases) where you need to CROP the photo to change the dimensions, when the aspect ratio of the original photos is different than the aspect ratio of the final photo; the specific case in 99jon's example is the only case you ever want to change dimensions using Image->Resize->Image Size, where the aspect ratio doesn't change from 6x4 to 9x6 (or 12x8 or 18x12 or ...), and even then, you could do the same thing simply by telling the printer the size you want, you don't really need to do anything in PSE.

I am trying to softproof an image using a CMYK .icc file. I sent an image from LR 5 to PS CC 2014, opened the Camera Raw FIlter, but the hyperlink to access workflow is not showing up in the CR dialogue box... Any ideas why this might be?

In bridge i select a jpg image with cntrl r to open in camera raw but get "camera raw not avail"

In bridge i select a jpg image with cntrl r to open in camera raw but get "camera raw not available" camera raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature. I can open nef. in camera raw with no problem.

Hm, what I suggested might actually be a possibility then...
Close whatever version you have open first...
I think Adobe installs shortcuts for both 32 and 64 bit Photoshop in the start menu.
If you can't find the 32 bit Start menu entry, look for the 32 executable here (changing the CS version number to whatever yours is):
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Photoshop.exe

RAW images in Lightroom aren't opening in camera raw in Photoshop. Instead, I have to open the image in Finder before it will open in Camera Raw in Photoshop. How can I correct that?

Your question is a little unclear. In a "normal" Lightroom/Photoshop workflow the raw images do not open from Lightroom into Camera Raw. Lightroom has all of the Camera Raw functionality in the develop module. When you choose to open an image in Photoshop, and Lightroom and Photoshop are synchronized (i.e. referencing the same version of Camera Raw) then Camera Raw is simply used to interpret the Lightroom adjustments as the image is transferred to Photoshop. If Camera Raw is an older version then Lightroom offers you the choice to open the image or create a PSD or TIF file that includes all of the Lightroom adjustments. But in either case, opening in Camera Raw is not part of the workflow. It is possible to open the image as a smart object or convert the image to the smart object in Photoshop and then open it in Camera Raw. That is done from within Photoshop or is one of the open options in Lightroom. If you choose to go the smart object route the image first has to be opened in Photoshop and then from there you can open it in Camera Raw.

Tiff previously edited in ACR will not open in Camera RAW from Bridge

Yes, I have googled this and found instances going back to 2010 with no satisfactory answer. I have Photoshop 5.1 and the latest ACR and Bridge that work with it. 2011 MAC Mini 10.8.2.
I scanned a landscape oriented printed email image at 800 spi as a portrait orientation and saved it as a tiff. I opened this tiff in Preview and decided it needed more than minor tweaks so I opened it in ACR from Bridge, made a few adjustments and saved it. I thought I could see what I was doing better if it was in landscape orientation again so I opened it in Preview and rotated 90 deg CCW, saved it as a tiff. Going to Bridge I found Open in Camera Raw greyed out. I went back to Preview to see if I could get what I needed in its Tools while viewing it in landscape. Adjustments took forever this time, so I gave up and took a look at the image characteristics. Rotating in Preview had changed the image size to 3.3333...... times larger at 240 ppi still aRGB, still a tiff. This has never happened before, including slow adjustments
I duplicated the rotated file and changed it back to 800 ppi and normal size, went to Bridge, Camera Raw still greyed out. Original unrotated image
that had been edited in ACR and saved will still open in ACR.
All kinds of strange things have happened since updating to 10.8.2, but I don't think this is one of them because of the complaints I have seen that date back to 2010. I did a full maintenance routine, i e cleared RAM, reboot in single user with fsck -fy, repaired permissions, back up with SuperDuper which repairs permissions again. Then I tried Bridge again, original will open, rotated won't.
Anyone know the answe?

The answer is that making edits in ACR and saving it creates layers in the tiff and Bridge will then not open it again in ACR unless you flatten it. I still don't know why Preview increased the image size by 3.333.....x or why ACR increased the tiff file size by 2.6x and why the flattened tiff is 2x the file size of the original scan but the image dimensions are the same. This stuff apparently is above the pay grade of anyone in google, too.

Open in Camera raw grayed out for some tifs not others, bridge

I searched but could not find a solution. CSR. PC. Windows xp. In CS4 Bridge the option to open with Camera raw is grayed out in the file menu for some tifs and not others - It shows up grayed out on the file menu, but doesn't show at all when right clicking, even with the files where open with camera raw is not grayed out in the file menu. I have purged the cache, deleted all temp files, closed both bridge and photoshop and still I cannot open the tif in camera raw. It is grayed out. If I go to the pic I touched up yesterday the option is not grayed out. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Uh, this is a forum...not an email tech support organization...
As for your issue, it's simply not clear what you are doing or what issue you have. Can you not open the scanned images via Camera Raw from within Bridge? If you can then you will need to go through each image and adjust the ACR settings before you would be able to process them. Depending on how you set up your actions, Photoshop's Batch may or may not catch settings...that part is pretty complicated.
Also, I would question your use of JPEGs vs TIFFs. I would suggest scanning as 16 bit TIFF and running those through Camera Raw...you will be loosing a lot to scan into 8 bit JPEG and then re-running through Camera Raw. You really want to be sending ACR 16 bit images...

Smart Object Not Opening in Camera RAW in CS6

I've converted a JPEG to a Smart Object in CS6. When I double-click on the Smart Object icon in the Layer, it opens as a separate JPEG file. What do I need to do to get it to open in Camera RAW as Russel Brown does in this video?

JJMack might have been referring to the script and video that is on the script page i linked to.
I did not know about the script. I just knew that ACR can only work on Camera RAw Files and convert the camera sensor RAW data into RGB Images and use setting other then ones set into the camera, ACR can also process Jpeg and Tiff files however Camers Sensor RAW data for thes images nolonger exists in the file. So ACR can not work on the images as well as it can when it has access to the Camera RAW data.
I was somewhat wrong about not being able to edit normal layers in ACR this script sort of makes that posible. What it does is save information about the layers transparenct and layer mask save out the layer as a temp Tiff file and place it back in as a smart object and restor the best it can any layer mask and transparency. You preferences must be set to open Tiff in ACR. While I was somewhat wrong I was bassicly right. The script turns the layer into a Temp Tiff file and places it back in the document as a smart object layer the embedded object is a Tiff file. The temp Tiff file is nolonger needed for the smart object layer has a copy of it in its embedded object.

In Adobe Bridge when I try to open my camera raws, I get a pop up box stating "Bridges parent application is not active. Bridge requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature" What do I do? Please advise

In Adobe Bridge, when I try to open my camera raws, I get a pop up stating"Bridges parent application is not active. Bridge requires that a qualifying product has been launced at least once to enable this feature." What the heck? I have a PC and haven't had problems before.. I have adobe cloud and pay my monthly bill...

Have you opened Photoshop or any other Adobe app that Bridge works with? You need to do this if you've upgraded PS or just signed up for CC.

When I try to open a photoshop image it opens in camera raw

I store all my images in jpeg. Been doing my editing elsewhwere, but yesterday tried to use Adobe Bridge. I opened a jpeg image in camera raw and was unsuccessful in getting what I wanted. Now, when I try to open one of my jpeg images in Photoshop it opens in camera raw. If I click on open image it opens, but in a size that is incorrect and is useless. Help!!!!!!!

Hope the screenshots will help you.
On a Mac ACR prefs are in Bridge / Adobe Bridge / Camera Raw Prefs or if you open a file in ACR at the top is a row of icons, if you choose the menu icon it also provides you those prefs.
I was wrong about PSD, that should have been Tiff btw...
