Nikon D7000 .NEF files are not opening

I am a new, lucky owner of the Nikon D7000 but, sadly, am unable to open my RAW (.NEF) files in iPhoto -- I am told that the files are an "Unreadable" format.
Now, while I may use the Nikon software provided, I would much rather use iPhoto for my editing.
Is there anything I might be able to do -- drivers, codecs (?) -- to get this opening?

I'm in the same boat here. What I've done so far is to use Adobe DNG Converter (free) to convert the NEF to DNG. Then drag the folder with the DNG files into iPhoto.
With another batch of files I converted to DNG, then did the sorting and editing in Adobe Bridge and Camera Raw. Then converted the whole bunch to jpg and imported them into iPhoto. I also imported only the highest rated DNG images. (Note that any Camera Raw processing will not be used by iPhoto, but it remains in the DNG file)

  • NEF files are not opening

    I don't know what I am doing wrong, but my NEF files will not open in Bridge or ACR.  If I click on the NEF icon that is shown in bridge it opens it in Photoshop but I cannot view the thumbnails in Bridge or use ACR with those files. Any suggestions?

    If you used the installer, then you cannot possibly have the plug-in in the wrong place.  Disregard the other poster's misdirection.
    For the record, the correct path is as follows:
    Command-Click on thumbnail to see full-size image in a new tab
    What you need to do is Purge the Cache through the Tools menu in Bridge:  Tools > Cache > Purge Cache for folder "xxxyyyzzz" for the offending folder(s).
    DO NOT use the global Purge Cache command in Bridge Preferences; it's broken.

  • CS4 will not open Nikon D7000 NEF files; Is there a DNC that will open them?

    I have CS4 and Light Room 2
    Apparently there is no Camera Raw update for the new Nikon D7000 NEF files for CS4.
    I therefore down loaded the Adobe Digital Negative Converter Verson 6.3.0.79 which is compatible with Camera Raw 5.4 or later. 
    Using that DNC, when I do step 1, "Select the images to convert" I get the message "No items match your search".  It apparently is not recongnizing the D7000 NEF files.
    Is there another DNC that will open and convert the D7000 NEF files?

    I just bought the d7000 yesterday and was experiencing the same issue with cs4. I downloaded the DNG converter from adobe and selected the whole folder where the raw files were located (I was unable to select individual images) and it worked fine. It processed the files one by one with new name (without the $500 CS5 pricetag for now). The DNG files open in bridge and psd. Perhaps try selecting the folder?  Good luck.

  • Webarchive files are not opening- what to do?

    My webarchive files are not opening.  I have a lot saved from previous months of research.  I never had a problem opening them before.  Now all of a sudden I get a page from mywebsearch that simply says "Recently closed."  All of them...even the ones I saved this afternoon.
    Can someone help?

    You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • How to open Nikon D7000 NEF Files in Photoshop CS3

    i have installed the 4.6 camera raw update but it does not recognise the D7000 NEF Files... same for Bridge.  what can i do to view files directly in CS3?

    Every camera model must be profiled and specifically supported, and Adobe only updates the current version of Photoshop when they add support for each new camera.  You should upgrade your tools just like you upgraded your camera.
    None of your new camera's NEF files should be viewable by CS3-vintage components, but all of your DNGs should be viewable by such, and if some aren't, then it sounds like your files may be getting corrupted on their way from the camera to the computer.  Are you using a cable to the camera or are you using a card-reader to access the images?  Using a card reader is preferable.  Some cameras have different modes their USB-connection can be in and something other than mass-storage mode can lead to problems.  I don't have a Nikon so am not sure of things more specifically, but if you can use a card-reader and just use Windows Explorer to copy the images that would probably be the best thing.  If you have a new memory card that could also be something to look at.

  • LR/ACR color mismatch with Nikon D7000 NEF files

    I recently purchased the Nikon D7000. The NEF RAW files are not supported in current versions of LR and CS5.
    Downloaded and installed LR 3.3RC. Also downloaded and installed ACR 6.3R1.
    Both work with the D7000 NEF-files with ONE exception. If I shoot a "Multiple Exposure" (one feature of the D7000)  the resulting image in both LR and ACR displays in strong "pink"/magenta. All other images display correctly.
    If I open the pink images in Nikon Capture NX2 2.2.6 they open correctly.
    If I use the White Balance tool (pipette) in LR, I can bring the image back to "almost normal" but the WB values then are Temp: 2150, Tint: -138. Conclusion: the Multi Exposure Image from the D7000 is completely mismatched by LR/ACR. But they are correctly matched by Capture NX2.
    This obviously needs to be corrected before final release.
    Has anyone else expreienced the same? Is there a workaround?

    Can you please supply some sample .NEF images? You can use YouSendIt.com with a target email address of [email protected] Thanks.

  • Nikon Df Nef File Thumbnails not showing in Adobe Bridge CS5

    HI,
    I am having trouble getting NEF thumbnail to show in Bridge CS5, but only from the Nikon Df. All other, older, NEF files are showing up without a problem
    I have installed the latest updates (Camera Raw etc)
    I would appreciate any advice on getting this to happen.
    Thanks
    BD

    Ok thanks for that, at least I wont be chasing my tail.
    I did install the DNG converter 8.3 but I still NEF files as a NEF icon. Any clues to what I may not be doing right there?

  • Nikon D5200 raw files will not open in PSE 11

    I recently purchased a Nikon D5200 and I could not open the raw files in Elements 9. I downloaded all updates for Camera Raw and it still did not work. I found a question/answer with the same problem and it recommended updating the DNG Converter or purchasing Elements 11. I did both and I still get a message that my camera model is not supported by the Camera Raw version I have. I verified per the website it is supported. Why can't I open my files?

    Nikon Transfer V1.x corrupts newer Nikon camera images as far as reading with Adobe software.  ViewNX2 should be ok, as long as it’s the newest version.
    Can you upload one of your non-working images to www.dropbox.com and post a public download link for it, so others can try, and see if it works on their systems or not?  This would help narrow down if it is something wrong with the Adobe software install on your computer or something wrong with the image data in the NEF, itself.

  • PDF files are not opening in IE!!!

    Some PDF files are not displayed while opening in browser IE . The PDF files are generated through servlets (JWS 2.1). While analysing the problem we have found that the one request invokes the doget() method of the servelet more than once. This problem is not appearing in netscape.
    Please give suggestions.

    I am having the same sort of problem. I have a form posting to a servlet that displays a pdf based on the vars posted to it. My doPost() calls doGet(). When I post to the the servlet the doPost() is called and then it calls the doGet() and then SOMETHING else calls the doGet() again. Since the vars that I am using to load the pdf are posted they are out of scope for the second doGet(). I tried two things to fix this:
    I changed my doPost() method to do nothing but check the request variables and hold on to them. Then I changed my doGet() to use the values that I held instead of the request vars. This only worked sometimes.
    Then when I rolled all of my code back and changed my form from POST to GET everything worked fine. It seems that there is something that causes the browser to always call the GET when you are using application/pdf. If my doPost() calls my doGet() everything is lost on the second doGet()

  • Music files are not opening in itunes.

    Hi
    My music files will not open in itunes and is not recognised in the library. I have the files in the 'My Music' file however when looking at the music file it say the file is locked? is there anyway I can get my itunes to recognise the music files?

    I finally removed those audio and video files from iPhone, although it will be tough to add them back to iPhone, but at least I saved the phone spaces.
    I used software something like iTools, delete everything under File System / User / iTunes Control, then restart phone, that simple, usage count, spaces used are all correct now.

  • EML files are not opened in the browser

    EML files opened from a SharePoint 2010 document libraries are not opened in the browser. Instead, a dialog box is opened and prompts to save the file.  
    Since there's no standard application that knows how to handle EML files, and since the EML format is built into SP (send emails to document libraries), I think this behavior is unacceptable.
    EML files should be opened in the browser, similar to SP 2007.  

    Seems the solution is in the client side configuration.
    If eml files (as all other file types) are not configured to open by default in Outlook 2007 (or Windows Live Mail), they will be prompted for download or open.
    The registry change link I provided earlier did not work for me. I tried this:

    solved my problem. Seems by default eml file set to MIME message/rfc822 and associated with windows live mail - SharePoint team hates Outlook team, right?
    If you do not have such assoication, it opens in browser!
