Lightroom3 not reading NEF Raw file

Hi,
I've got a Nikon D600 and always shoot in NEF RAW format and before I've been able to use the Lightroom with my files on a diferent computer which broke down... Now I'm on a new computer with Lightroom 3, which is
Lightroom version: 3.6 [795620]
Operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium Edition
Version: 6.1 [7601] and now it says it won't recognise the files and I can't import at all or view... What's going on... I'm using sme serial number that i used in my previous instalation...
Also I tried updating Lighroom but it says I've got the current version.
If anyone can help would be great
Thanks

Please do not ask the same question in multiple threads.
You need to update to 4.2 (4.3)  to support the D600.

  • IPhoto 09 not reading Nikon raw files (.nef) properly?

    Hey everyone. Over the weekend I upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard. Everything seemed to be working correctly until I started using iPhoto. Since the upgrade, I've noticed that photos that I imported from a Nikon D700 seem to look pixelated. I took it to a Genius Bar and the dude helping me was at a loss. He said to try and re-install Snow Leopard, which I did, and that didn't help. I went back and he upgraded me to iPhoto 09...also didn't help. He said he thinks that maybe it's Snow Leopard/iPhoto bug. He said that it's not reading the raw files correctly and seeing them as thumbnails. We looked at the photo info of a random photo, and even though it was a large 10MB file (indicative of raw format) its pixels were 160x160. Weird. Also of note, both Photoshop and Lightroom view and display all photos correctly.
    If anyone has any suggestions or solutions on how to fix this it'd be much appreciated!!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.

    That means that what you're seeing is the jpeg Preview inside the NEF and not the actual file.
    My guess is that the your Camera Raw bundle is damaged.
    Go to
    HD / System / Library / Core Services / RawCamera.bundle
    What version of this do you have?

  • CS6 not recognising NEF (RAW) files from Nikon D800 [was:NEF files]

    CS6 not recognising NEF (RAW) files - Nikon D800 is compatible - not sure why - can anyone help with this query

    …Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 7.1 fully supports the D800 but CS6 ships with ACR 7.0. I suspect you're still running ACR 7.0…
    Well… I just don't see the wisdom or prudence in updating to 7.1 when 8.3 is available for CS6. 

  • 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.

  • Photoshop CS6 will not read my raw files

    I have both a Canon 5D Mark 3 and a Canon 70D and CS6 will not read my RAW files.  I have to convert them to DNG to work on them.  Suggestions?

    According to this Adobe help link, the 5D Mark III had support since Camera Raw version 7.1 and the 70D had support since version 8.2, which CS6 should support fully. (CS6 supports up to the latest Camera Raw, which is version 8.7 as of this post.)
    Is everything updated? (Help > Updates in Photoshop.)

  • Lightroom 4.4 will not import NEF RAW files from Nikon D610

    I shoot a Nikon D800 and have never had any issues importing my NEF RAW files into Lightroom. I borrowed a friend's Nikon D610 and shot a bunch of NEF RAW files. I downloaded them to my computer the same way I always do. For some reason, Lightroom will not import them. The error message is: "The files are not recognized by the raw format support in Lightroom. (455)"
    My Lightroom 4.4 is current and up-to-date.
    Bottom line: I have a bunch of RAW photo files I can't import into Lightroom for editing. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

    >Just curious -- is there some difference between the NEF files created on my Nikon D800 (which are easily imported into Lightroom) and the NEF files created on the Nikon D610 (which are not easily imported into Lightroom)
    Lightroom 5 supports the D610. There is a big difference between nef from the D610 and older cameras. They were shot with a camera that Adobe hadn't profiled yet when LR 4.4 was out. Otherwise, if you hack the nef files to read that they were shot on a D600, LR 4.4 will read them, but I would caution against doing that as the sensor is slightly different on the D610 than on the D600, resulting in differences in color rendering. Simplest is as dj says to convert the nets to dng (which embeds the newer profiles in the file) or to upgrade to LR 5.

  • Elements 10 can not read the raw-files from my Sony a-57

    The raw-converter is updatet to 6.7 and according to Adobe it should be able to read Sony a-57. When I got Elements 10, a file had to be moved so it could read the raw-files from my Minolta 5D. Can this be the cause of the problem ? What to do ?

  • After reloading PS CS5 it will not read my RAW file

    Its possible that camera raw needs updating.

  • Elements 12 does not open nef raw files depsite having latest raw plug-in

    Help please - wasted far too much time trying to open my raw files with recently purchased elements 12. I have tried to ensure all software is up-to-date but still the message that the raw file is not supported appears when I try to open with Camera Raw . The files open in nikon software and windows.  My camera is a Nikon D7100.

    As a test, try copying a nef file from your camera to computer without using nikon transfer and see if it opens in pse 12.
    Which version of windows are you using?
    If in the photoshop elements 12 editor you go to Help>About Plug-In and click on the words Camera Raw, what version does it say?

  • CS6 will not read 70D raw files?

    OK. I just upgraded from a 60D to a 70D and I am so in love BUT my RAW file can not be read by my Photoshop CS6. Do I need to upgrade? Yes, normally the camera's come with their own EOS Utility image upload but my computer will not recognize that either.... HELP PLEASE!! I need to edit photo in RAW not JPEG!
    Thanks,
    ME

    In your case it would be Photoshop>About Plug-in>Camera Raw
    Click on words Camera Raw to display the version.
    Unfortunately, camera raw 8.4 won't work on mac os x 10.6.8, but camera raw 8.3 will and should open the canon 70D files
    Download this installer for camera raw 8.3 and see if it works:

  • CS6 Camera Raw 7.4 "will not open" compatible D800 NEF Raw files (Win7)

    CS6 camera raw 7.4 "will not open" the compatible D800 NEF Raw files (Win7). D300 NEF files open OK.
    I seem to remember seeing an article that stated i would have to uninstall and re-install CS6 Photoshop completely and re-install again. However I cannot find this article now.
    If the above is true, having PS version CS4 with update CS5 & 6 installed, would i have to remove all PS versions.
    Photoshop error message just states download latetest software version, which i have done with ACR 7.4. I have also tried ACR 8 which did open file either.
    Also when ACR8 is hosted by Photoshop CS6, it does not offer any of  the new features described in Photoshop CC marketing materials for ACR8 (Re: DPReview mag) so i returned to 7.4
    Adobe DNG runs OK but i would rather deal with the original file in ACR rather than adding an additional step with more files to keep track of.
    Is there a way of uninstalling all versions of ACR, cleaning system and re-installing ACR, assuming the fault lies with ACR?
    Anyone have any answers?

    Half an hour after posting this query (in the wrong forum) I resolved the issue. The fault lies with Nikon Transfer.
    Nikon Transfer corrupts the D800 NEF files. Apparently Nikon Transfer is well known for causing errors.
    Drag & dropping the files direct from the memory card onto your hard drive and everything works fine.

    Thank you for your response. I fixed the problem by simply importing the 
    images using windows rather than the Nikon Transfer.
