My RAW(.NEF) files not rendered in A3

i have a Nikon D700 & Aperture 3.1.2 i am new to aperture. when i imported my files from my hard disk(i don't use iPhoto) my TIF & JPG files are rendered buy my RAW(.NEF) files are not. says "unsupported image format" but, in aperture help it says the D700 & .NEF are supported. anyone have any idea what's going on and what can i do? i have "Lion" OS.
Mike

The fact that Preview also is not able to render the RAW file but that Capture NX can really points to a RawCamera.bundle problem.
Both Aperture and Preview as well as iPhoto and any other OS application that processes RAW file all use the same code provide by the OS (the RawCamera.bundle). Third party software like Capture NX provide there own RAW code.
Since rolling back the RawCamera.bundle to 3.7 have you tried to re-import any of the RAW files that are currently failing? Or you can try importing a new RAW file from your camera.
I wish I had more to offer you but if rolling back the RawCamera.bundle to 3.7 isn't fixing the issue I'm not sure what else to recommend.
Of course you should run the Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics steps just to rule that out if you haven't already done so.
good luck

Nikon D300 RAW NEF files not recognized ???

I just got a new Nikon D300. I Have been using a Nikon D80 shooting RAW with no problems. I cannot get iPhoto or Aperture to recognize any RAW files. RAW+jpeg results in the jpeg files being imported by not the RAW files.
All software is the newest version, iPhoto08 v 7.1.1 and Aperture 1.5.6 Here is the error message I get in iPhoto
Unreadabel Files:
/private/var/folders/1s/1suEP7hYGu15kLLAa5I2+++TI/-Tmp-/iPhoto/DSC_0075.NEF
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks
Steve

I just pickup a D300 and unfortunately Aperture nor iPhoto will not import the picture in the RAW format. Do you know if the RAW format will be updated in the new OS release that is to be announced?
I also contacted Nikon about the Capture NX program that came with the camera and Nikon told me that they are working with Apple to resolve the issues with there program as well.
It would be nice if the Camera venders would work with Apple before introduction to make sure the software is available to support the hardware they introduce..

Raw files from the new Nikon D810 will not open with either Photoshop CS5.1 or Lightroom 4. When will a real Adobe solution be available to work with Raw (NEF) files in their native format, using CS5.1 and LR4?

Clarification: this is a user forum; you are not addressing Adobe here.
The answer to your question as phrased is: never.
CS5 is history and it is not longer supported. There will not be any updates or bug fixes for CS5.
You need to convert the raw NEF files from your D810 to raw DNGs using the free, standalone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 RC (beta), the first version ever to support that camera..

RAW files from my Nikon Df (NEF) will not display in Lightroom. Same format from Nikon D300s works. Camera firmware is current. Df RAW (NEF) files display in Nikon software products, not in Apple software (Aperture or iPhoto).

The above list show the current camera models supported by Adobe Camera Raw (plugin for PS CC) and Lightroom 5.3.
You will see that the Df Raw support was provided in the latest version of LR 5.3. Support for the D300s was introduced in LR 2.5. (the NEF files are different.)
Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw can only be updated after the camera manufacturer has produced the camera and made it publicly available. If you are using an earlier version of Lightroom then that is your problem.
Please post details of the version you are using at present.

Nikon Df RAW (NEF) files will not load previews into Lightroom 5.4. Nikon d300s RAW (NEF) files load just fine. Df files do not.

Thank you for your response.
I have loaded directly into Lightroom using import and via Nikon Capture NX2. RAW files display fine in Capture.
In Lightroom, blank previews are created for each available image, with the message "Preview unavailable for this file."

Photoshop Elements 8.0 will not open Nikon D610 RAW .NEF files

I am using Photoshop Elements 8.0; just purchased a Nikon D610 and when I try and open the RAW .NEF files I get error message saying wrong file type.

Hi,
Nikon D610 is supported in ACR 8.3 (adobe camera raw version 8.3) while PSE8 is quite old. You may convert to DNG and then process converted DNGs in PSE8. For 8.3 DNG converter, see http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5694
Thanks

My Elements 9 does not recognise Raw NEF files created by my newNikon d 800.

I would be grateful if you could send me the relevant updaste so that my Elements 9 Package cn recognise RAW NEF files created by my new Nikon D 800

Unfortunately, nobody can send the relevant update since the D800 requires a more recent version of ACR than will work in PSE 9.
You have three options:
1. Use the Nikon software to convert the files and then use PSE for any additional editing to the converted images.
2. Upgrade to PSE 11.
3. Download the free adobe DNG converter and use that to convert your NEFs to a format that your version of ACR can understand:

Why are 'saved as' .psd files so much bigger than original raw nef files?

I was under the impression that original raw files were the biggest possible. I appear to be very wrong. Why are 'saved as' .psd files so much bigger than original raw nef files?
I'm beginning to think that saving them as psd is a bad idea.
Yes, though I've heard all the arguments of keepng the original raw files (For ex. Did you throw away the negatives when you were using film) I se eno purpose in keeping them. Once I've made the initial adjustments--cropping, color correction etc. I don't feel a need to ever go back and never do. Most of my work is done in Photoshop and I like it that way--but suddenly finding myself with such huge files doesn't appeal to me at all--and other formats like tif...well never mind for now.

Good point made c.pfaffenbichler however, my thinking is this--there is time spent on the raw file and then there is much more time spent on (usually a psd) the file once in Photoshop. For me to then go back to the orignal raw file, after having worked on it on PS would mean getting rid of all the work (larger amount of work, time wise and artistic wise) done on PS which seems pointless. Although the psd file does show your layers and stuff it only shows the end results of that layer. It does not show from where to where you pointed your brush, from what point to what point you changed the color or part of an image etc. etc.Anyhow I understand why most people keep their raw files, but this is the main reason why I do not. It would mean hours of work on an image you already worked on (and usually were satisfied with) to perhaps make some minor alteration. Also please note that though I was noce a pro photog, no I do it mostly for fun. Getting the exact red in my Coca Cola can has never been of importance. On the other hand, if there were a way of working on a raw file within Photoshop and keep it (save it as) a raw file equivalent, then I would absolutely do so.

.nef files not displayed in my content window!

.nef files not displayed in my content window. I just want to work, not screw around fixing thing. How come the .nef files won't display anymore? The new .nef files don't display.
Thanks for your help.

Well, I'm afraid I'm not going to be a lot of help. From what I see, if everything is installed correctly it should be working. I know that there has been a few challenges associated with Vista, but I don't know enough about that aspect to really comment. I'm still using Windows XP.
As far as Camera Raw is concerned, there have been four updates since CS3 was released. If you haven't done any updates you are probably in for a pleasant surprise. New controls have been added that most people have found to be quite valuable. The most current version of Camera Raw is 4.3.1. The first thing I would suggest is for you to download that update and get it installed and see it that makes a difference.
I know you indicated that you don't want to have to do a lot of fine tuning of the program. But Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) is updated frequently, and you always want to make sure you have the most current version. If the new version of ACR doesn't resolve your issues the problem "might" be related to Vista. And I'm afraid I cannot help you with that at all.

How do I open a raw NEF file in Photoshop cs6? [was: Raw Files]

How do I open a raw NEF file in photoshop cs6?

Browse to the folder in Bridge, then right-click Open in Camera Raw, then in ACR, Open.
Or if you’re already in Photoshop: File or Photoshop if on a Mac / Open / browse to the file / Open.
If you get an error that the format is not supported then either the camera is too new or you’ve used an obsolete version of Nikon products like Transfer or ViewNX to copy or view the NEFs and they are corrupted.
Help / Updates is how you get the latest version of the Camera Raw plug-in.
You can use a utility from here to fix the corruption:

Importing Nikon RAW .nef files into iPhoto

I am using iPhoto 8.0.3. I can import RAW .nef files from my D90 without a problem. I also scan my older slides/negs using a CoolScan V and saving those files as RAW .nef format. Problem is that iPhoto does not recognize the .nef files that are scanned. Anybody have some thoughts? I can convert the scanned files into jpg using Nikon View and then bring them in to iPhoto, but would prefer to leave them in the RAW format so I don't have replicant files all over the place.

iPhoto will only work with RAW files on this list

Unfortunately there are no Scanners on the list.

Nikon RAW NEF files have white balance blown out (iPhoto 7.1.4)

I had no problems opening my Nikon D200 RAW NEF files in iPhoto until about a month ago. I think I downloaded a patch for compatibility of camera files? After that when ever I open A raw file, the colors and white balance are blown out.

I was unable to get my images to appear as I shot them. I shoot with a Nikon D80 and shoot with a Vivid setting. Now after shooting a wedding of more than 1500 images I have to find a way to color correct them all. I have attempted the downgrade to the previous version, unsuccessful. I have forwarded on my comments to apple and find that this issue effects tens of thousands of photos. As a MFA student at a major university, and studying color management and workflow, I feel I need to look elsewhere for file management as iPhoto is not able to do the job and the fact that it affects my entire library system of photos... simply unacceptable. I have always found the discussion groups extremely helpful, but this issue has effected so many of us and is such a huge integral part of the photographic process that I need to look to other programs to effectively handle my color management.
Disappointing.

Does PSE 12 download and edit raw NEF files

I have a new Nikon D7100 and PSE 10. PSE 10 does not support Raw NEF files from this camera. Does PSE 12 download and edit Raw files from the D 7100?

Someone will probably answer this before I finish typing.
Your issue is less with PSE than ACR or Adobe Camera Raw. ACR works a little like a conversion engine to get RAW photos from all the various camera models to Adobe's photo programs. Adobe updates it for recent models every few months. They don't make it backwardly useful to Elements software.
So, you get two choices. You can upgrade PSE that works with the current ACR modules. If you don't want to learn the new interface and tools in PSE 12, you can use the free and downloadable "Adobe DNG Converter" that also is kept up for new camera models. It will batch process you camera files to a more universal RAW format that is useful in the software you have.

Import of RAW (NEF) files from Nikon D 90

Hi there:
> I am new to lightroom and just got a 30 days trial version. I desperately try to import directly RAW (NEF) files into lightroom 2. I have downloaded Adobes latest RAW converter. I also checked all available support areas (hope at least I found them all and also read Adobe's and Nikon's memorandum of understanding of working closer together in the future, but I am looking for help now..) I use a MacBook Pro Leopard...
Can anybody help?

You will need the 2.1 RC1 beta to use the D90 files. I don't know if you can
patch the trial or not.

You can download the beta 2.1 there.

How do I import iPhoto raw (NEF) files into Lightroom 3.6?

how do I import iPhoto raw (NEF) files into Lightroom 3.6?

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.
