NEF Files Cant Be Read

updated to lightroom 3.5 wont read my NEF files. PLEASE HELP i have been at this for hours. How to I Import my photos from my D300?

So as soon as you updated to LR3.5 it quit working but used to work with LR3.4 or has something else also changed like an OS upgrade or new user profile?
It may be that LR 3.5 is using a different OS function to read from the camera which isn’t compatible, anymore, or something else may be coincidentally be going on.
Can you copy the files from the camera to your hard drive, successfully using Finder or Explorer, depending on your OS?
If you can copy files to your hard-drive and import from there and they work ok, then it may be either a cable issue or some OS-level-interface change in LR.
Do you have a card-reader to see if that works?
Does the camera have any USB-mode like PTP and Mass Storage where only one does what you want for copying RAW files?

M2T files cant be read with AA CS6 (Mac)

Hi, I gave osmeone some M2T files. Some were from a Z7 and some from a Datavideo DN 60 recorder (which was connected to a Z1). The person I gave them to said he could not read them in After Effects CS6 on Mac. Anyone got any ideas how I has resolve this.

Maybe you can rename the extension, but I wouldn't. Working in AE is all about preserving image quality, and mpeg files are lossy. I'd transcode to a better codec first.

4.0 layout files cant be read by 4.1 and vice versa?!?

I have just learned that all my videoTs folders that I have built in studio pro 4.0 cannot be formated in DVDSP 4.1 and vice versa. This is extremely frustrating and has limited the efficiency having both a G5 workstation and a Xeon workstation should yield.
Any one know why this is?

Lightroom will not read sony ARW files

I understood the latest version of Lightroom supported the recent Sony A7 series, whose RAW files are Sony's own ARW files. I have the latest Lightroom but it will not read these files.

Here is a list of the Sony A7 series cameras that Lightroom supports, and the version of Lightroom required. The Lightroom versions are in the highlighted area.
If you are certain you have the appropriate version of Lightroom installed, then provide more information. Can your operating system browser see the raw files? Have they been downloaded to your hard drive? What operating system are you using? What is the exact version of Lightroom?

Using Lightroom 4 w/ Windows 7. Recently started shooting w/ Sony camera .arw files. Lightroom cannot read the files. Loaded Adobe converter program onto the computer and this program cannot read the files either. Any suggestions?

Using Lightroom 4 w/ Windows 7. Recently started shooting w/ Sony camera that shoots .arw files. Lightroom cannot read the files. Loaded Adobe converter program onto the computer and this program cannot read the files either. Any suggestions?

Thnx again for the reply. The version of Lightroom I have is 4.0 (working w/Windows 7) This computer and all media files are kept off-line After doing more research, I downloaded DNG Converter 7.1This loaded into a .zip folder, which I am planning to install into the off-line computer andrun. Where does this folder go?
And will this set up work with my version of Lightroom?
What a pain. Makes me wanna go back to shooting .nef files for all stills
Thnx

LR 4.2RC and ACR 7.2 RC won't read SONY RX 100 ARW files

I was at a wedding yesterday and had two cameras with me - a Nikon D800 and my little SONY RX 100. I was using an Eye-Fi Pro card for the Sony. I'm uninterested in the Wi-Fi capabilities when I'm away from home, but like the camera to upload pictures when I'm close to my big processing machine. Long story short. This was the first time I've used the LR 4.2RC and ACR 7.2RC with the Sony RX 100. I plugged the card into both the regular Eye-Fi USB reader, and into my Hoodman USB 3.0 reader. Of course, LR doesn't like the Eye-Fi reader, but it loves the Hoodman. Finally, it recognized the Hoodman and the Eye-Fi card. I have previews set to minimal and I was attempting to import all the raw (ARW) files into Lightroom. When the initial previews come up as I start the import process, it shows about 1/3 of the previews and then tells me it can't read the rest, including MP4 files. When I actually begin the import, it simply times out and reports that it was unable to import ANY of the ARW files, nor the MP4 files. I have no trouble reading 63 files into Raw Photo Processor so I know there is nothing wrong with any of the files. I can only conclude that there is something wrong with LR 4.2 and/or ACR 7.2.
Anyone else reporting this problem? I'm puzzled because this is the ONLY time I have ever had trouble importing files from supported cameras.
Thanks for feedback.

Well. After some experimentation, I discovered what the problem seems to be. For reasons completely opaque to me, Lightroom expects not only that the Eye-Fi card will be read from its own reader, but it also expects that the Eye-Fi helper application be installed and running. Of course, this means that I end up with duplicate copies of every file - once to the Eye Fi directory, and again to the appropriate Lightroom Folder on a completely different set of drives. I guess the conclusion I can draw from this is that without the helper application, the Eye Fi card is dumb and the images only partly visibible. The Eye-Fi helper can import the .ARW files, but it doesn't display them because Apple hasn't updated its camera list to include the RX100. Until they do, I think I'll just use regular cards and consign the Eye-Fi card to the hall of unhelpful cards. Yikes, the darned thing is as expensive as the Lightroom upgrade.
Sigh.

Lightroom and Sony A700 Raw (ARW) Files

I shot all pictures in ARW format. A number of the shots are at mid to high level ISO numbers. The shots above 400ISO are extremely noisy(both cloro and luminance)When I use the SOny supplied software
the same pictures noise level is significantly reduced. I have read on several other forums that ACR in lightroom is "messing up" the ARW files. This appears to be true. I use lightroom then CS3 to process my shots. The use of the Sony softweare complicates my workflow but at this point I am forced to do this. Is there any relief in site for this concern. Really want to combine everything into one system. By the way CS3 Bridge is not much better.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Bob

I have your lighting right here, JM.
It's quite clear you know nothing about shooting African Cichlids, the most colorful freshwater fish in the world.
These fish are "mbuna", they live in rocks, caves, and along rock faces and ledges. They are used to living many meters deep so the best fish always take up territory towards the bottom of the tank where the best structures are, where the light is most dim.
In this 120 gallon tank is well over 500 pounds of structure which consumes most of the space in the tank.
In many of the photos you will notice rock structures around the fish as the tank consists of a hundred or so ledges and caves.
African Cichlids are the smartest fish in the world and they even learn who is who...they are not ordinary fish.
No matter how much light you throw on African Cichlids it usually does not cure the problem since they spend most of there time peeking from, and hanging under structures. Shadows and dark areas are cast throughout the tanks due to the structures.
Not to mention you must use the lighting already available in every public tank in the business, not to mention fish vendors usually cannot add lighting to their tanks either.
That leads us to use high ISO when we must.
Here are a few Sony A700 test shots made with 3 custom temp 4 ft 40 watt tubes in a deep 120 gallon tank.

Here are a few old shots of mine when I used my custom built and designed setup w/6 custom temp 40 watt tubes made to fit a standard 55. Notice structure galore...it's like an urban housing complex in the mbuna tanks. I can shoot fish with a good pNs setup fairly well with this amount of light. Not many people anywhere get this amount of light on their tank, trust me.

I shot Minolta, and then Konica Minolta, and now Sony has bought KM, so Sony is the one making the bodies for our glass now.
Many of us will not give up image stabilized primes (body SSS) so we stay here. All lenses gain 2-3 stops on the Sony...A700 has top notch DR and great high ISO so most of us are not interested in Canon at the moment.
This thread is here to help the Adobe team make ACR better, please stop interfering with your brand bashing speaks.
Thank you.

Lightroom 4.4 and ARW files from a Sony RX100 II

Does anybody know if there is a way to have Lightroom 4.4 directly recognize these ARW file? Right now it will not import them, which is a pain. Thanks!

Raw support for the RX100 II was not introduced until Lightroom version 5.2. So your choices are either upgrade your Lightroom, or use the free Adobe DNG converter to create DNG files which LR4 will then happily read.

I have a sony rx100 and my version of lightroom (4) will not recognize the raw (.ARW) files. Please help!

I have a sony rx100 and my version of lightroom (4) will not recognize the raw (.ARW) files. Please help!

I have version 4.4.1 on my computer now, which is functioning properly - but does not read the .ARW files. When I download the link you sent and try to open it, it pops up as version 5 and I get this image (attached). This is my first time in one of these threads, not sure if i have to reply to each of you individually?
DdeGannes, could you please tell me how to recover the serial number from my operating system?
Thank you SO much everyone!

Mavericks cannot read/preview lightroom 5 dng files. Sony a7R or RX100. However Canon 6D conversions are fine.

Mavericks cannot read/preview lightroom 5 dng files created from Sony raw files (a7R or RX100). However Canon 6D conversions are fine.
I have come across a couple of threads asking about this. It would seem that some raw files convert into something OSX can read, others (like Sony ARW) create dng files that OSX cannot read. Has anyone had any luck with this? I thought the idea behind dng files was that they were universal and not brand specific.
Any advice appreciated.

Downloaded pdf files open in wordpad and cant be read

after downloading some files they open up in wordpad and cant be read.they appear as some kind of code.this happens with both text and photo files.i cant seem to find another application to try open them in.
This question was solved.

Hi,
Wordpad can't open pdf files properly, you need pdf reader and the most popular is Adobe reader. Please download from the following link and install to your computer:
http://get.adobe.com/reader/
(Please don't tick add-in).
Windows 8.1 actually comes with a reader but it's not good enough.

Cant get com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-only entitlement to work

Hey I am curious how can I get the .ipa compiled file for iOS to be able to read all the directories on the iPhone?
I made a file browser but I cant get to the pictures
I tried adding the entitlements in Flash Builder 4.6 in the descriptor file like this:
<key>com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-only</key>
<true/>
<key>com.apple.security.assets.movies.read-only</key>
<true/>
<key>com.apple.security.assets.pictures.read-only</key>
<true/>
in the
<iPhone>
<Entitlements>
<![CDATA[
I got Push notifications working and accepted in the app store but it can't read the pictures directory when browsing for a file
I know the app id and stuff is set up right or I wouldnt have been able to get it accepted in the app store. In the entitlements area of course I have the application identifier set and aps-environment and keychain access groups and whatnot set up right.
When I try to put the app onto the iPhone with iTunes it just says 'Entitlements are not valid' (does not mention anything about mismatched ids) I can't find anything about how to add this entitlement and I could have sworn I saw a thing that said I can just use the descriptor file to add entitlements in some of the documentation I have it set to use air 3.4
Is there something I am doing wrong, how do I get apple to just put these entitlements in the mobileprovision file, I cant seem to edit it, if I do I also get an error in itunes that is some hex code...

I can't figure out how to update camera raw. Elements won't read my ARW. files.

Help? haha Elements won't read my ARW. files. It says to update camera raw but I don't know how.

What camera model do you have? What version of Elements are you using (Help / About Photoshop Elements) and what version of Camera Raw are you using in Elements, now (Help / About Plug-in / Camera Raw)?
These questions are relevant because each camera model must be supported individually and Adobe only adds support to currently available products.

Sony a7 mk2 ARW files will not import

I have a Sony RX100 and LR 5.7 imports the ARW files ok, However I've just bought an A7 Mk2 and Lightroom will not import the ARW files from that camera. I've downloaded CameraRaw 8 so I can convert the files first and then import into LR, but it seems strange that I cant import and convert from withing LR itself.

Mac – http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5856
Win – http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5857
Use the links above to upgrade to LR 5.7.1 or if you have a Creative Cloud account subscription login to your account and check if there is a button indicating "install" available next to Lightroom and proceed to click the button and install the update.

My arw file cant be read in Lightroom 5..
