This is only a users forum - you will have to ask Apple that question

Even if someone here knew the answer they could not tell you since speculation on Apple products is not allowed - this is a user to user support forum

  • IPhoto 09 RAW Support for Olympus E-30

    Hi,
    I already have an Olympus E-510 which is supported & recently got an E-30 body which doesn't appear to be supported by IPhoto.
    Does anybody know when & if an update will be released to add the E-30 to the RAW compatibility list?

    Keep an eye on the Raw compatibility list and hope the E-30 is added soon...

    Note: Camera compatibility is the same for iPhoto and Aperture.
    Cheers,
    Patrick
    p.s. I believe the RAW support is in OS X rather than either application, so be sure to check the updates from Apple. I know I occasionally see updates for Raw support offered as a system download for OS X.

  • Sony a700 dSLR, iPhoto RAW support

    I recently purchased a Sony a700 dSLR. jpeg files import into iPhoto without trouble. I want to try to use RAW files but they can not be imported. The camera supported list has the Sony a100 but not the a700. Is there a plan to support the a700 in the future on iPhoto or Aperture.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    No one on this board has any idea what Apple's plans for the future are. It's a user-to-user forum.
    RAW support is a function of the OS, not either application.
    Let them know you want it though:
    iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback

  • IPhoto 11 wont read Sony RAW (.arw)

    Hi,
    I have iPhoto 11 on my iMac & sony RAW files are fine. Today I just upgraded my older laptop (10.6.3) to iPhoto 11 too, but it wont open the same ARW files.
    I checked the iPhoto version after upgrading & it says iPhoto '11 : 9.0 - I check for updates & it says i am up to date, but i am pretty sure iphoto 11 has some more updates after 9.0. Now I am stuck on how to get the support for these RAW files?

    Update the System software on that mac. The latest version of of the 10.6 OS is 10.6.8. These system updates also contain Rw support for additional cameras.
    The latest version of iPhoto 11 that will run on 10.6.8 is iPhoto 11 v9.2.3. Check on
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/
    for updates. You may need to update to 9.1 first before moving on to 9.2 and so on.
    However, the Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D300 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D5000, the CR2 produced by a Canon 60D is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 7D and so on. So when you speak of a "Sony RAW" it doesn't mean anything, and each Sony has a different Raw.
    Raw support is in the OS, not in iPhoto. So, be sure to check for the Camera Raw updates as well.

  • Sony Alpha 6000 RAW support is missing

    Hi,
    I just bought a SONY Alpha 6000. I like to shoot in RAW, however, neither Aperture or iPhoto support my SONY RAW format.
    I like to know where can I send in request to get it updated?

  • Will Aperture 3.6 eventually provide raw support to Sony a5100

    I have an iMac running OS X Maverick 10,9,5, and currently use Aperture 3.5.1 with all of its latest RAW updates.  I am considering updating to Yosemite to get Aperture 3.6.  I note that so far 3.6 does not provide RAW support to the Sony a5100.  Lightroom does have RAW support for this camera, and I can get Lightroom and keep Maverick.  However, I like Aperture and would like to continue using it.  But will the new version on Yosemite ever get RAW support for my camera?  I also see from other posts that many are having problems with both Yosemite and with Aperture 3.6.  I would need some reassurance before taking the step to a new OS X.  I need some advice about what to do. 
    Thanks

    But will the new version on Yosemite ever get RAW support for my camera?
    We cannot tell you this, but any new Raw Support will most likely only be available on Yosemite.
    The latest Digital Raw Compatibility Update was only for Yosemite, Aperture 3.6, and iPhoto 9., see:  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1777?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    I need some advice about what to do.
    Upgrade, but don't burn your bridges. I'd keep a full TimeMachine backup or a bootable clone of your system as it is now, so you can easily revert to the previous version.

  • Sony A330 Raw Support

    Is it possible to find out the timeline for when support for the Sony A330 raw support will be added to Lightroom? I thought it would be the same as the A300, but I keep getting an unsupported message when trying to import.

    The Sony A330 is a new model that was only announced mid May 2009, which explains why it isn't currently supported. Whether it is supported in the upcoming Camera Raw 5.4 and Lightroom 2.4 updates is not something only Adobe can comment on.

  • Sony NEX-3 Raw Support

    How is it possible that Aperture 3 does not support the raw format of the Sony NEX-3 camera? It's one of the hottest DSLR available right now do to it's compact size and has been on the market for nearly 6 months. No RAW support?
    I'd rather take my camera back than have to switch to lightroom which added support 3 months ago…
    Any suggestions? Anyone else have this camera? What can I do? I need a temporary work around, I MUST shoot in raw.

    You could batch convert the files with Adobe Camera Raw to DNG, or maybe the software provided will convert them DNG for you. http://www.adobe.com/products/dng/
    I currently have a bunch of files that I converted to DNG from NEF when I was using Lightroom, and Aperture 3 reads them just fine.
    I know its a extra step, but until apple release a update to their RAW engine its a solution.

  • Iphoto 6  no support for Nikon D40 (NEF-Format/RAW)

    Hello,
    I want to use iphoto (Version 6.0.5) with NEF-files of my D40, but that files are not supported yet. I haven´t found a solution in the forum.
    I don´t want to buy another program to be able to edit the nef-files. The functions of iphoto are still enough for me.
    Can anybody help me.
    With regards
    Stefan
    Macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    For maximum compatibility I suggest you run the 10.4.9 COMBO updater, the Quicktime 7.1.6 updater and the iPhoto 6.0.6 updater. Also, if you haven't already done so, run the Digital Camera RAW Support Update 1.0.1. Follow it with a repair of disk permissions with Disk Utility.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Sony alpha 900 raw support

    When Aperture will support the Sony alpha 900 raw files?

    Anybody that knows is under NDA and won't be talking. Apple typically takes a few months to roll out raw support for new cameras.
    Fortunately, you can convert to DNG and use the raw files from your A900 that way. Adobe's recently released DNG Converter v4.6 includes the A900, D90, and 50D.

  • RAW Support for Sony

    Any idea when RAW support for the Sony Alpha 330a will be added to Aperture 3? I would have thought that most all late model SONY's use the same RAW specs, but I cannot import my RAW pictures at this point. Thanks

    Sonyman,
    only Apple knows the answer to your question.
    If I had to guess, I would say it is likely that the V3 will not be supported. That camera was announced in August 2004; chances are that Apple will add support for RAW format of new cameras before they worry about old ones.
    Then again, that is only my guess.

  • RAW support for Sony A330

    Hi
    Does anyone know how to get RAW files from a Sony A330 open in Aperture 3?
    Or does anyone know of a timeframe when Apple will include this?
    If I can figure this out then I am definitely buying a copy.
    Cheers

    Im not sure but i suspect aperture will support sony raw files. Aperture will only use raw if it has the option. If you import some images you can see on the very top right of the metadata panel if it is jpeg or raw. i had a minolta and this is now sony and aperture supported that. so go for it! Allan

  • IPhoto does not support Canon Powershot S45 RAW Format

    Hi,
    It seems iPhoto does not support Canon Powershot S45 RAW file format. Can this be added to be supported!?
    Does anyone know how to report this to Apple and request this as a feature enhancement?

  • Raw Support, Sony A7ii on aperture?

    Anyone know if there are plans for a RAW support update including the SONY A7ii?  Or could the current RAW that already supports the A7r and A7 be compatible?
    Thanks-

    Raw support is specific to the camera model. You just need to be patient. Sony Cameras are generally supported, but it takes time.

  • TS2518 sony RX-100 Raw Support
