Nikon d80 raw and elements 6

Hi all
When looking through the specs for the RAW 4-4-1 update, it lists the Nikon D60 as supported but no mention of the D80.
My main goal at the moment is to edit RAW (NEF) pictures and I want to find out what I need for that.
There are various questions spread over the forums from people who can not get elements 6 to work with RAW images.
Bottom line: does elements 6 fully support Nikon D80 image editing or not?
Thanks for your help.
Ben

All ACR releases contain support for ALL cameras supported in ALL previous versions.
YES, the D80 is supported.

Camera raw and elements 4.0 on a mac

I run elements 4 (version 4.0 according to the 'about elements' box) on a power pc mac running Tiger 10.4.9.
I've downloaded camera raw 4.1 and installed it as per the adobe instructions into the 'file formats' folder, removing the previous version onto the desktop. When I launch elements and check the 'about plug ins' list, camera raw keeps coming up as v3.3.
The same thing happened when I tried to load camera raw 4.0. The result is that when importing NEF files from my Nikon D80, instead of a sophisticated window with sliders for all kinds of things, I get a really simple window where all I can alter is the orientation, white balance and the exposure.
I can't believe that the raw converter is that basic - snapshots in magazines and online suggest I should have far more control. Can anybody please tell me where I might be going wrong? Thanks.

Please try it with version 3.7. You can find it at
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3591
To install with Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0:
1. Exit Photoshop Elements and Adobe Bridge
2. Open the Finder
3. Navigate to the root of the local disk (not the user's home folder).
4. Navigate to:
(Please read directory carefully)
Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS2/File Formats
5. Move the existing plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensure you keep this version in case you need to revert back.
6. Copy the Camera Raw plug-in,
Camera Raw, from the download into the same folder as in Step 4.
7. Launch Photoshop Elements or Adobe Bridge.
Also make sure that you don't have the Nikon raw/nef plug in installed and over riding the Adobe one. Sorry, I don't have a Nikon to be able to tell you the name of their plugin.

Nikon D300 RAW and PSE 5.0 (Win)

I have just started to process my Nikon D300 RAW images in my ACR / PSE 5.0 (Win) installation. The RAW conversion works OK but when I want to remove the actual RAW files from my computer to store elsewhere, the computer will not let me move or delete them because "they are being used by another program or person."
I have also noticed other strange goings on with these RAW files sometimes causing PSE to freeze.
A quick check with the Process Explorer diagnostic tool from Microsoft indicates that something called Photoshop Elements File Agent.exe is still running in the background. Is this a problem of the RAW files themselves or PSE? Has any other user met this? I have backed up "My Catalog", restarted my computer and uninstalled / reinstalled my PSE 5.0 to no avail.
Any help gratefully received!

Hi dj_paige
1. Sorry but Windows XP (SP3).
2. My current RAW workflow involves deleting the
NEF RAW files from the PSE Organiser after
conversion, copying / backing up the NEF files to
an external HDD (which works OK) and then moving
them (via standard Windows Explorer
drag-and-drop) from the "Download" folder to an
"Archive" folder on my computer internal hard
drive. I got the same error message when I tried
to delete them from the "Download" folder. My
son, who works in computers, put me onto the
Microsoft "Process Explorer" utility, to try and
find which program was still using the files.
3. I have had no problems with this workflow with
my previous Nikon D70. My suspicions about the
D300 RAW files arose when the problem happened
with the first one I tried to move / delete.
4. The other "strange goings on" relate to trying
to reopen one of the affected D300 NEF RAW files
back into PSE Editor. My PSE5 installation just
stopped. Today, after having reinstalled my PSE
software, when trying to import one of the
affected D300 NEF RAW files back into PSE
Organiser, I got an error message relating to
"Memory". As this is all somewhat vague, I will
try to recreate and note the error messages received.
I look forward to any progress on this matter.
Kind Regards

Nikon D80 RAW NEF files

Hi
Wonder if any of you can help.
Are they any updates that enable the D80 raw files to work with 10.2.8. like there are for 10.4?
Cheers
emac Mac OS X (10.2.x)

Each time a new camera model is introduced the camera raw plugin has to be updated for its format. The D7100 requires ACR 7.4 which is not compatible with PSE 9. So you have three options:
1. Upgrade PSE.
2. Use the nikon software to convert your files and open the converted files into PSE for further editing.
3. Download the free Adobe DNG converter and use that to convert your NEFs to DNG files that your version of ACR can understand.

Nikon D80 JPGs and PS3 Bridge metadata editing

PS3 Bridge will show thumbnails of Nikon D80 JPGs, but will not allow editing or additions to Metadata to be saved in Bridge. PhotoShop CS3 will allow adding, editing and saving metadata in the File Info section, but I can't edit it with Bridge.
Yeah, I need to upgrade to CS4, but can't get the bean counters to sign off on it!

Workaround. I created a metadata template in PS3 and Saved it. Then created an action that applied the template to the image in PS3 and saved the action. Then I went to Bridge and selected all the files and ran a batch on all of them that ran the action and saved the file. Now each file has the metadata common to them all in the metadata when looking at them in Bridge AND they can all have unique metadate ID added and saved in Bridge.

Camera raw and elements 11

I can't get the latest version of camera raw into elements 11. Please help! It doesn't show up as an update, and the downloaded version says it's incompatible. Version 7.1.0.354 came with my load of Elements. It seems that the latest version is 7.4 (or 8.2, depending on where you look).
This shouldn't be so difficult.

Yes, "updates" is not an available selection. So I used the applications manager, and it tells me I am up to date. But that can't be the case.

Nikon D80 RAW files and Apperture

Hi,
The RAW files comig out of a Nikopn camera are of the NEF format. This is the begining of my experimentaiotn with RAW image processing and I am begining to sense that the RAW designation is more internal than external and the extention of the file varies by camer itself. So, if the files generated in the camera have NEF extention how do I use Apperture to open them? Apperture does import the file but it says NEF is an unsupported format.
Thanks for the help.

For the D80 support, you'll want to install the Digital Camera RAW Support Update 1.0.1 at:

Camera RAW and Elements Hang during Thumbnail Generation...

Ever since I upgraded to the newest version of Camera Raw, I have been having issues with Photoshop Elements hanging while automatically generating thumbnails, anyone else notice this issue?
Hang is not quite the right description... So I import a batch of pictures and PSE starts processing the files ("Generating Thumbnails" is in the tool bar at the bottom). After a few images are processed, it just stops. If I try to force an update of the thumbnail ("Update Thumbnail" option under the Edit menu), a broken image just come back. No mater what I do, it just sits there and will not resolve the thumbnail issue until I close out PSE and go into task manager and make sure that the task is killed.
On the other hand, while I can not get the thumbnails generated, I can go into the Editor with a raw image and it opens in Camera Raw without any problems.
Anyone else having similar issues? Know anything to try?
* Yes I have the most recent version of Camera Raw. When I downgrade to an older version of Camera Raw, the issue seems to go away.
* I can not use the old version all the time because I have a Nikon D300, which is only supported in the newest version. I confirmed the working of things with some of my D200 files.
* I am using Photoshop Elements 6.0, mainly for organization of all my images because I take a lot of them.
* I am doing this on a Windows XP x64 machine
* Based on a post someplace, I did check that my default printer on my machine is set to a printer that is always on the machine (PDF writer) and not a network printer/printer that has been disconnected.
Thank you for any help/suggestions that anyone can give me...
-Matt

Have you tried the Elements forum?
Not many visitors here have Elements, mostly PSCS and Bridge.
If you where using Bridge I would suggest to purge cache and or refresh the preferences but I have no clue if this is possible in Elements? :-(
Edit:
Do you have enough RAM installed, generating thumbnails from RAW can take a lot of energy from the OS...

Camera RAW and Elements 8

I have Elements 8 running under Windows 7. Elements 8 does not support my camera (Nikon D3100) so I have downloaded the DNG converter to turn my NEF files into DNG files. When I open the DNG files in Elements I do not get the Camera RAW interface panel on the right - Elements just treats my file as a normal JPG file. I have tried OPEN AS a DNG file but no luck. Is this what should happen or do I need to do something else to get the camera RAW panel up?
Thanks

Looks as though I am between a rock and a hard place. I have done as you suggested and it works. The only problem is that I had to change the screen resolution down to 1280x720 when I first installed Elements 8 in order to read the elements options - the writing is so small at a higher resolution. So I am having to go back to 1280x720 to read the screens and therefore can't use the camera raw interface. Will this still be a problem for me if I upgrade to Elements 10??

Nikon D80 Raw

Has anyone had any luck importing raw images from a d80 nikon?
I have read all the manuals, and they say it works, but it doesnt work on my software
thanks
Orville

There are two versions of the download, for PPC- and for Intel-based Macs. Sounds like you got the wrong one, which is very easy to do as neither page mentions the other version...

Nikon D5000 camera and Elements 5.0

I cannot load pictures from a Nikon D5000 into Elements 5.0 through a card reader. Elements hangs up and refuses to transfer the jpeg pictures. How can that be solved?

I cannot load pictures from a Nikon D5000 into Elements 5.0 through a card reader. Elements hangs up and refuses to transfer the jpeg pictures. How can that be solved?
It would be helpful to let us know exactly how you tried to "load pictures from a Nikon D5000 into Elements 5" (i.e. what steps did you take), the error message that you received, or exactly what happens on your screen when "Elements hangs up and refuses..."
There should be no problem importing .jpg photos from any camera into Elements, so we need more information to help you.
Question: are you sure you shot .jpg photos? Is it possible you shot Raw photos?

Adobe Camera Raw and Elements 9 new user

I hope someone out there can help me out because Adobe can't so far. I have a Mac OXX 10.5.8, new user to Elements 9. Bought PSE9 and there is no Adobe Camera Raw with the installation. Support told me I need to download ACR 6.3. Went to website for Adobe and tried to download update to no avail. Emailed back and forth to Adobe support, no help. So now, I am stalled, any ideas?

Thanks to Yammer P. for providing the download links. Assuming these are what you need, are you saying Adobe support didn't even provide these?
Adobe, are you listening to this? Do you really think contracting your support out to India is working if the support personnel can't even provide basic links to your own software update web pages?

Adobe Camera Raw and Elements version 12?

I have Photoshop Elements version 12 that presently has Adobe Camera Raw version 8.5 with it. Can I update to a newer ACR version? If so which one? I'm getting a new camera lens and I see that version 8.5 doesn't support it but 8.6 and newer does. Thanks for the help - I don't want to "blow up" my Elements software by installing something that's not compatible.

Canon 7D Mark II Raw and Elements 13

I can't open Raw files from this camera with Elements 13. When I download Adobe Raw version 8.7 it doesn't seem to install.
What can I do?
Mary Lou

Well, Yes,
Should she uninstall and start over? But, only from her disk. PE 13 should have the plug- in installed , PE 9 does and it is dead simple, my wife uses it on craft work..
Sometimes the download is corrupted, but, the main problem I have found is with the installation of unzipping and where to place it.?.A novice will have heaps of trouble with this unless you get 99jon to walk her through it.
As Jon says the Canon Digital Professional Software is more than capable and it works.. The file is automatically saved to the folder you nominate in MY Pictures. No plug ins , No installation issues. That is you Save & Convert in one stroke..
If your student does not know her way around a computer she may get lost, initially..
Get her to install Canon DPP off her disk , sometimes the professional software is easier to use than Photoshop Elements. #### and try it .

Nikon D80 Raw Images

I ordered the full version of Aperture, still running the trail version. Downloaded the update for the raw data, however I got a dialogue box that said the update wasnt necessary for this version of Aperture. I wonder if its because its the trail version of Aperture? Not able to download the raw images or import them from image capture.Reluctant to take ownership of the program if it wont do the raw images from the D80!

RAW images from the D80 are supported... but the update is necessary. Did you ensure you got the relevant PPC or Intel version of the update? There are different files for the different OS versions -- be sure you have the right one. Another thing that's confusing is that the Intel update is marked "Universal" but it won't install on a PPC machine I don't think.
Also -- note the trial version, if you got it more than a couple weeks ago -- is based on Aperture 1.5. That is to say, it is not Aperture 1.5.1 or the latest 1.5.2. It's quite likely that Aperture 1.5 doesn't support the RAW updates that come with the OS camera RAW update. Joe Schorr said in his O'Reilly podcast that there's a newer "trial" version of Aperture that is based on Aperture 1.5.2. Try it, and ensure you have the right version of the OS update, and you should be sorted.
