Lightroom 3 Raw Files not Importing

I have a Nikon d3200 and I am using Lightroom 3. My raw files are not importing. Do I need some sort of plugin? Im not sure where to find the plugin on Adobes site...ugh!!! #frustrated

You would need the FREE Adobe DNG Converter (version 7.1 or later) to convert your D3200 raw photos to DNG.  The DNGs will import into Lightroom.

  • RAW files not importing

    Hi
    I have lots of RAW images taken with a Canon G2 which iPhoto 6 doesn't import for me when I drag the files over. The camera is on the famous list of supported cameras (http://www.apple.com/macosx/upgrade/cameras.html). Why might these files fail to import?
    Thanks

    This is not a case of iPhoto stopping importing. It has failed to recognise my G2 RAWs from the start. As RAWs from my other cameras are OK in iPhoto it seems I am not doing anything wrong with RAW files generally. OSX and Preview both read my G2 RAWs, so there is nothing wrong with the files. But, iPhoto does not read them and – whatever the list of supported cameras claims – my G2 RAWs are clearly not supported by iPhoto.
    I have searched the forums thoroughly without a sniff of a solution. That leaves me looking elsewhere than iPhoto for a program to make a complete catalogue of my images.
    Unless someone has a fix...

  • RAW files not importing correctly into iPhoto

    I'm having problems importing .CR2 files into iPhoto. This didn't used to happen with Tiger, so I'm trying to figure out what the issue is. I'm using iPhoto 7.1.1 (354) with Leopard 10.5.1. I previously had 10.4.8.
    I'm wondering if it's an issue with networking. Currently, my iPhoto Library is on a NAS because it's big (about 86GB) and I have RAID redundancy on the NAS. The original files are fine, but the imported files (not just the thumbnails) are corrupted. If there's a problem with data transmission, would that show as a data corruption?

    Michael
    I don't have a NAS myself and my ignorance of it and networking one is pretty much total. However, this thread
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1100543&tstart=0
    records a discovery by one user using a similar system. It has to do with iPhoto using ':' for temp files and folders, and Samba having a problem with the character.
    Hope that helps.

  • High ISO RAW files not importing properly since upgrading to Yosemite

    Since updating to Yosemite I am having a problem with trying to use RAW files shot at ISOs higher then 800. I am simply getting a black rectangle with a message about "unsupported file format". I am able to import the images using the Canon software, then convert them to JPEGs.

    Hey Ronin, thanks for your reply! The audio codec is Linear PCM.
    The audio codec options I have, from redcine-x, are:
    Linear PCM
    AAC
    Apple AES3 Audio
    Apple Lossless
    MPEG-4 AAC Enhanced Low Delay
    MPEG-4 AAC Enhanced Low Delay with SBR
    MPEG-4 AAC Low Delay
    MPEG-4 HE AAC
    MPEG-4 HE AAC V2
    Would one of them be better?

  • Lightroom 4 does not import RAW files from D610

    I've just purchased Nikon D610, and my Lightroom 4 is not importing RAW files anymore. What is the problem?

    The current version of LR 5 is 5.7 so I’d guess LR 6 will be out at some point later this year, in the next few months.  If money’s no object then upgrade to LR 5, now and to LR 6 in a few months.  If you’ll be very upset to learn you’ve paid $80 to upgrade and then need to pay another upgrade fee for LR 6 then maybe wait and do the DNG thing for a few months, and then upgrade from LR4 to LR6.
    The other concern is whether your OS is new enough.  I’d suggest you download the latest LR 5.7.1 update and run that in trial mode for a few weeks—you have 30 days, to make sure your computer can handle it, before spending the money and finding out you need a new computer, first.
    The other thing to consider is the $10/month Photography Plan subscription which gets you the most up-to-date versions of Lightroom and Photoshop as long as you keep paying.  Since you have your old LR4 serial number, you can decide to cancel the subscription after a year and use the LR4 serial number to buy the LR 6 upgrade, then.  This assumes that LR 6 will be available as a serial-number-licensed product, still.
    The latest LR 5.7.1 update is here:

    The lens profiles added to each version are listed here:

  • Lightroom 4 corrupting Nikon D800 RAW files on import

    Has anyone experienced Lightroom 4 corrupting Nikon D800 RAW files on import?

    How do you know they aren’t corrupted before you import, or the old one wasn’t already corrupted and you just regenerated the preview and could then see the corruption where what you saw, before was from the preview cache and not the current image?
    Is the corruption a problem with the Previews or does LR actually choke on the file and say it is unreadable or show you a gray thumbnail or pixilation starts halfway down the photo.
    Can you prove the files were intact coming off the card and only are corrupted after importing into LR?  Can you get to the originals on the card, still?

  • Files not imported because they could not be read.  L5.3 on Mac from SD card in reader RAW photos

    Files not imported because they could not be read.  L5.3 on Mac from SD card in reader RAW photos and video visible when card inserted but not able to import.  Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

    This message means that you don't have permission to write to the destination folder or disk drive. This is an operating system issue that can be resolved by changing permissions. And you can get plenty of information on how to do that by doing a web search for "change disk permissions".

  • Lightroom 4.3 not importing all photos

    Using Mac, 10.7.5
    Have used lightroom version 3 (now 3.6) with Canon 7d and Canon 5dmk11 with no issues.
    Connect cameras to computer via usb, in lightroom 3.6 both cameras immediately recognised by lightroom import preview pics shown, no issues.
    Ugraded to lightroom 4 (now 4.3) have no issues importing photos from Canon 5dmkii, however seems to be hit and miss with the 7d. Lightroom does not automatically see the 7d, I have to use import and then select the 7d.  On importing the photos sometimes it is fine other times I have a number of photos with a ? and message missing file cannot be located.  Close down lightroom 4, open lightroom 3.6 connect the 7d and all the photos are imported including the ones that had a ? in LR4.
    In the end I stopped using LR 4 went back to LR3, but have recently bought Fuji XE1, raw files not supported in v 3 so back to using LR4, and am getting the same issue. Have deleted and re-installed lightrrom 4 , still some import issues, tried Adode remote chat line, (waste of time, the rep had less idea on LR than I do)
    Please has anybody got any ideas, as to cause or a solution, as this is driving me up the wall,
    Many thanks Neil

    Rikk,
    Thanks for the reply,
    yes I have tried with a card reader and have had some mixed results, but always when I go back to lightroom 3 all the photos are seen and imported.
    I reinstalled LR4 yesterday, upgraded to v4.3.
    I have set up a new catalogue with none of my historic photo's, I will archive those in LR 3.6.
    Have re-installed the latest firmware for the canon 7d,
    Took some test photo's connected camera via usb, had to manually select import, the 7d was listed, then imported pics, no problem this time, need to see if this is consistent. Did the same with the Fuji xe1 and all 12 pics loaded.
    Will try tomorrow with significantly more pictures from both cameras.
    I wonder if there is any issue associated with importing the old catalogue from 3.6 and upgrading in LR4?
    Enjoy New year,
    Neil

  • How to Delete imported JPEGS after matching RAW files are imported as masters

    Using a 5D Mark III and shoot JPEG (SD) and RAW (CF).
    Aperture 3.5.1, using a managed library
    Perviously, using a 7D so new to shooting JPEG and RAWs from an aperture Aperture workflow standpoint.
    I know that i can import the JPEGs > delete images that do not make the cut > then import the matching RAW files in the import dialogue that correspond to the JPEGs in the Aperture Library.
    I use the RAW files as my Camera Master images and once the RAW files are imported, the smaller resolution JPEGs are no longer needed or viewed in my normal edit workflow.  I only need the JPEGs to quickly go through the images to find out which RAW files i need to import at a later time to increase the speed of import > edit > deliver.
    My Assumptions:
    1.  Logic would lead me to believe that after import the user should see a stack like image representation with whatever file type is considered Master to be on top and the viewable secondary file type on the bottom.  clicking on the image stack should allow you to see both file types as you would normally see with image stacks with the same files types.  This is not the case...  What am i missing here?
    2.  Logic again would lead me to believe that when i have the ability to delete one of the 2 image types as i do not need both in the end.  After the import process is complete and RAWs are backed up, I want to delete the JPEG files as they are just taking up more space on my DAS drive array...  There is no need to keep a duplicate of every file in both JPEG and RAW format.  This is not the case as when i delete the JPEG or RAW, both files formats are deleted simultaneously.  What am i missing here?
    Problems: (correspond to Assumptions above)
    1.  I do not seem to have access to both images (JPEG & RAW) in a stack where i can expand and close the stack to see both?  It seems like i only have access to the image type i have selected as Master?  This seems counter intuitive to what the workflow should be as why would aperture 'lock the secondary file types away' so you can't easily view both file types as the same time for comparison?
    2a.  Reality seems to be that i do not have access to the JPEG and RAW image files.  I can only see one at a time by selecting the images and choosing 'make JPEG master’ and then respectively... 'make RAW master', but you can't see both at the same time for file comparison.
    2b.  Also, I can't find a way to delete the JPEG images after the RAW files have been imported.  I would presume most professional photographers shoot RAW and do not shoot JPEG as their camera master or editing master images.  I do not understand why aperture has captured both as a pair in the library that does not allow me to delete the JPEG (in this case) as i have selected the RAW as my master.
    If someone can please help...  The function seems like either i am missing something obvious or that the implemented function of using RAW + JPEGs files for import is broken from a real world workflow standpoint.

    leonie...
    thank you for clearing that up for me.
    I think that at this point it is silly to use the JPEG+RAW import functionality as it seems that it takes longer to do the above steps than to just import only the RAW files and press on from there.
    I seems what i have done in the past of only importing the RAW files and then using the quick preview functionality to reduce image load times is the best thing in can come up with without keeping 'duplicates' in the database.
    That really baffels me that there is no built in functionality to remove the JPEG from a RAW+JPEG pair and i wonder how the real world photographers who help Apple test and implement software to solve real world workflow problems thought the JPEG+RAW import was going to be used.
    I do understand that i can use a smaller JPEG file size to reduce the bloat of the database, but used over hundreds of thousands of images is certainly going to make a dent in my total aperture database size and therefore storage needs down the road.
    If you have any other workflow thoughts, or know of a 3rd party plugin/ etc... to fix this obvious shortcoming then i am all ears..
    thank you again Leonie and have a great week

  • New Nikon Df camera RAW files not recognized in Bridge and Photoshop.

    New Nikon Df camera RAW files not recognized in Bridge and Photoshop.  Is there a fix?  Surely Adobe make a mistake and not keep up with Nikon.

    I looked at the current list http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html and did not see the Nikon DF listed.
    Would post in ACR forum and see if they know anything more.  http://forums.adobe.com/community/cameraraw

  • Canon 5D Mk II Raw files not selectable by Adobe DNG 5.5

    Well  to be more clear then the thread header, I am not able to select my old Nikon 5700 Coolpix files either. In other words the files are grey but the Adobe DNG browser is working when looking for file to select. I dropped the first download in the trash and downloaded again but same result.
    I  have CS4 and all software is listed as compatible with Canon 5D mkII files. A friend of my was able open my 5D files from Adobe DNG 5.5 that were on his Windows platform.
    i did not see any special instructions, and seems intuitive enough, but it must be some kind of Adobe 101 question. Any ideas out there. Thanks.

    Well sorry for any confusion here. I don't think my question is vary misleading though.
    I have a MAC using OS 10.4.11. G4 Dual 1000 Gig (2002) processors, 1.5 Gb SDRAM (maxed), Dedicated 80 Gb Scratch Disk for Photoshop, 500 Gb Internal Drive.
    All operations are done using the MAC OS.
    All files are grey when viewed through the  "Adobe DNG Converter 5.5" application browser. If you are familiar when you open Adobe DNG Converter the vary first step in the process is to ( 1. "Select Folder" ). Pressing this button opens a FINDER then if you will , (many applications refer this as using a their browser to locate files for opening).
    I am referring to RAW files, and as stated earlier those from the 5D mk II and those from the  Nikon coolpix 5700 are not available for selection, or opening by Adobe DNG Converter 5.5, yet they are listed as being current with DNG Converter 5.5.   "All files are grey", So none of the image files have black text suggesting you may select those.
    My  understanding is this converter was made for RAW files, not  "jpeg",  in hopes are creating a last RAW file format Standard that would be a usable archival format across mulitple platforms and through time   . The RAW files are Full 21 megapixel files, not the smaller files sizes  of RAW available on the 5D (ie: sRAW1, or sRAW2). The DNG converter should open all 5D mk II RAW files regardless of megapixel size unless otherwise stated.
    My files can not be an issue , because also  stated  was that my files were opened by a DNG converter loaded on a Windows platform.
    Procedure performed as follows:
         - Open DNG Converter 5.5 on my Power MAC
         - Press " Select Folder " step number list as "#1"
         - DNG Finder or Browser opens allowing one to find the folder said RAW files are contained within for purpose of selecting full 21 megapixel RAW Format CR2 files for Conversion processing to a DNG file format.
         - Oops, can't select, files have grey text appearance. There are no image files at all with Black Text of any format available for selection, so can't select.
    Adobe Photoshop CS4, Adobe CS4 Bridge, Adobe Camera RAW, Canon Utility package for the 5D mk II all these applications see the files, and function with them, no crashes, not hang ups, a little slower then the world turns now days but they do what they were meant to do.
    Thanks again.

  • Lightroom 5 will not import selected images from my SD

  • Raw files not supported

    I have a new Canon T2i and can't seem to get the raw files to open in Elements 8. I have downloaded the 5.6 camera raw update and the DNG converter and both say camera raw files not supported......now what?

    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    I  have also an EOS Rebel T2i since a few days and I experienced the same issue with Photoshop CS4.  What next? !!!!
    It's likely the next version of Adobe Camera Raw will handle it;   Adobe updates ACR about every three or four months, and the most recent version was released in December:
