Importing Kodak .KDC RAW files into Aperture 2.1.4?

Is there a file format description file I can add to the Application Support folder to get Aperture to read Kodak >KDC raw files? I can open dierct in Adobe PS but would like to use Aperture as an intermediary App to cull and also I sometimes prefer setting some adjustments in Aperture.

Aperture, actually OS X, goes by camera make and model not by file. The reason being that RAW files from the same manufacturer with the same file extension but from different camera models can and often do have different formats.
So it's not possible to talk about adding a certain manufactures file or extension you need to specify the camera make and model. Then you can see what version of Aperture and Camera RAW bundle you need to accomplish that.
See http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html for the list of RAW cameras currently supported. The only Kodak that shows up is the DCS Pro/SLR n which was supported starting back with Aperture 2 in Tiger or Leopard.

How do I import Kodak Photo CD files into iphoto 09

I have a number of old Kodak Photo CD disks that use .pcd file format - how can I import these photos

You will need an application that can convert those pcd files into one that iPhoto supports, mainly jpeg. GraphicConverter is supposed to support many, many formats and might just support the pcd. If so you could use it to convert them to jpegs.
There's an automator workflow that I've put into an application that will take many image files and convert them into jpeg with the RGB color profile. I've never tried it on the Kodak files but you can give it a try. It's called +*Convert to JPG and Embed sRGB profile*+ and can be downloaded from Toad's Cellar. Make a copy of a couple of files and see if it will work. If so then you can batch convert folders of the files at once by dragging them onto the application.
I believe GC can do batch conversions but am not familiar with the application.

Importing Nikon NEF Raw files into iPhoto

Recently I purchased a Nikon D810 camera and have been trying out various settings to determine the quality of picture I can get. As a way to run through the test, I took pictures with different RAW (NEF) settings. I also took pictures in JPG format for comparison.
What I have found is that iPhoto (version 9.6) will import all of the JPG files but only the RAW files taken in the Large 14 bit or Large 12 bit format. It will not accept the RAW Small photos.
Has anyone run into this problem? And, if so, any ideas about how o address this?
I am using a Mac Pro for this work.
Thanks.

That is what Apple's RAW support page says, so you can do nothing about it:
OS X Yosemite: Supported digital camera RAW formats - Apple Support
See the footnote at
Nikon D4S†
Nikon D810†

†Nikon RAW L format only.

Error importing Nikon D800 RAW files into Lightroom 4.4.1

Hi folks,
I got an Nikon D800 and tried to import the RAW files taken with it to my Lightroom 4.4.1 installation on Windows 8.1 64bit.

I do get an error like this while trying to import the files:
And then when I try to import them I get an error screen.
The files can be viewed with irfanview so they should not be corupted.

Have you used any Nikon software with them, perhaps an older Nikon Transfer or View NX? These are known to make newer Nikon camera’s files unreadable by Adobe products.
On way to test would be to take a new picture and move it to your hard-drive using either your OS-level functions (Finder/Explorer) or LR, itself, directly from the card, perhaps in a card reader.
The utility, here, can reverse this obsolete-Nikon-software corruption:

Adding RAW files to Aperture when JPEG exists

Here's my situation:
I recently bought Aperture and loaded my existing iPhoto library into it. This library only includes JPEG files. I have been shooting RAW+JPEG with a newer camera so I have an entire set of RAW files in a separate folder on my computer (which I never added to my iPhoto library). I want to now load these RAW files into Aperture -- will they correctly pair up with the corresponding JPEG's? What are the steps I need to take to ensure that they somehow pair with the existing JPEGs and I don't end up with duplicate RAW+JPEG files in different areas of my Aperture library? I would also like the RAWs to become the master over the JPEGs.

Read this page of the manual:
http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter=4%26sec tion=6%26hash=apple_ref:doc:uid:Aperture-UserManual-91292IMP-SW5
To import the RAW files that match the JPEG files in your Aperture library
Choose “Matching RAW files” from the Import pop-up menu.The Include pop-up menu appears below the Import pop-up menu.
Do one of the following:
To import all matching RAW files regardless of rating: Choose “All matching files” from the Include pop-up menu.
To import all RAW files matching JPEG files that are unrated or better: Choose “Unrated or better” from the Include pop-up menu.
To import all RAW files that match the current rating: Choose “Current filter” from the Include pop-up menu.

How do I not import RAW files into iPhoto

I shoot RAW + Jpeg with my cameras... Up until a recent upgrade to Mavericks... I would put the SD card in the iMac and it would import all the JPEGs, and then say something like 75 files could not be downloaded.
Those were the large RAW files and I would then just move them to an External Hard-drive and use Lightroom and Canon's DPP to edit them.
After the OS upgrade the RAW and JPEGs now both import into iPhoto and onto the Mac Hard-drive.
I can't seem to find a way to not import the RAW file into iPhoto. Is there something I am missing? I do not want those large RAW files wasting space on the mac, and I have notice iPhoto is really slow since the upgrade.
Thanks for any help

A. To move an iPhoto Library:
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
B. iPhoto and Raw
1. The Raw processing engine in iPhoto the same one used in Aperture, but with less fine control. (Think of the differences between Word and TextEdit, iMovie and Final Cut).
2. Processing Raw in a 3rd Party Application
You can also process your Raw with a 3rd Party app like ACR or Photoshop. But iPhoto does not handle this gracefully and it's a bit of a kludge.
First off set your preferred app as an external editor in iPhoto:
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
Note that iPhoto sends a copy+ of the file to Photoshop, so when you save be sure to use the Save command, not Save As... If you use Save As then you're creating a new file and iPhoto has no way of knowing about this new file. iPhoto is preserving your original anyway.
Next: In the iPhoto Preferences -> Advanced, elect to use Raw with your External editor:
Now when you go to edit the Raw it will be sent to your external editor.
Now for the kludge:
You cannot save a Raw. The work you do must be output to a new file, in a new format (jepg, tiff, whatever). However, as the External Editor is making this new file iPhoto has no knowledge of its existence. Therefore you must save it to the desktop and then import it back to iPhoto as a new file.
This means that you will have your Original Raw and the processed version in iPhoto but they will not be recognised as version and original. iPhoto will see them as two separate shots.
Further - and this is quite a consideration: Lightroom is not an editor. Like iPhoto it's a database app and images need to be imported, processed and exported from it. It occupies the same place in the workflow (manager/non-destructive processing) as iPhoto does so in makes zero sense to use both...

Importing Photoshop RAW images into Aperture

When I import Photoshop RAW images that I have made adjustments to, into my Aperture library, they show up as the original RAW files and not with my adjustments. Is there a way to get the RAW adjustments imported as well.
The only reason I need to import them into Aperture is to post them in a web gallery. Or is there a way to create a ME web gallery directly from Photoshop files? How about creating a ME web gallery directly from Lightroom? Anybody have a clue?)
(Btw, in attemtpting to research this topic, I find I am totally unable to do a search of the discussions. Even with a search word like "Aperture", I get no messages. Not matter what search word I enter I get no messages found. ???)
Thanks!
Jim

Thanks for the reply Allen.
I am saving them all as TIFFS now. I was just trying to avoid that time-consuming step. I do not really need them as TIFFS right now. It is to show edited RAW files to a client. Later, when selections are made, I would save that much smaller number of images as TIFFS. But it seems that there is no other way to import the RAW files with the edits into Aperture.
I used to create all of my web albums for clients in PS. But once I got a .mac account, I love and prefer the look of the .mac web galleries. But of course that necessitated importing all my PS files into either iPhoto (not an option) or Aperture. But can these PS web galleries be exported to a .mac web gallery?
Thanks!

Re: thought I was importing RAW files into iPhoto 09

I've imported several hundred RAW files from my Canon T2i into iPhoto and when I went to open them in Photoshop Elements they are JPG files (new to Mac, switched from Windows). When I select an individual photo and select show extended photo info it says it is a CR2 file and 7.9MB (a RAW file). I've read many threads but my question is: Has all the data from the RAW file been lost and it's now compressed into a JPG file or can I somewho get that file back to it's original RAW format with all of it's info? And if I can, how??
Thanks in advance for any help,
Kristy

No data has been lost. Your Raw files are unchanged in any way. This is a bit long but it might help explain things.
Processing Raw in iPhoto
When you import a Raw to iPhoto it automatically makes a jpeg Preview of the shot. Currently, this is what you re sending to Photoshop - read on.
Why? Because you can't do anything with Raw - can't print it, share it online, use it in other apps etc. So to allow you to use the file immediately the Preview is available.
You can, however, also process the Raw in iPhoto simply by editing it. The Raw processing engine in iPhoto the same one used in Aperture, but with less fine control. (Think of the differences between Word and TextEdit, iMovie and Final Cut). The output from the processing then replaces the preview.
You can choose to save your output as either jpeg or tiff in the iPhoto Preferences.
When you are processing Raw in iPhoto you will see the Raw badge on the bottom of the iPhoto Window
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
Note: After you have processed a Raw, subsequent edits to the photo are carried out on the processed jpeg (or tiff) not the Raw. If you want to go back to the original then you need to use the Photos -> Reprocess Raw command.
Processing Raw in a 3rd Party Application
You can also process your Raw with a 3rd Party app like ACR or Photoshop.
But iPhoto does not handle this gracefully and it's a bit of a kludge.
First off set your preferred app as an external editor in iPhoto: You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto.

And the key bit for you...
Next: In the iPhoto Preferences -> Advanced, elect to use Raw with your External editor:

Is there a way to import Raw files into LR catalog ..including..any edits performed in an external raw file editor such as Capture One?

Is there a way to import Raw files into LR catalog ..including..any edits performed in an external raw file editor such as Capture One?
I can import the Raw file successfully but cannot see any edits that were applied in Capture One. Im assuming no but just checking.

Your assumption is correct, Capture One, Lightroom and other third party raw processors have their own proprietary processes and profiles for rendering the raw data.
They do not make permanent changes to the raw data and store the changes to an .xmp file or to a catalog file like Lightroom.
