Old version of Camera Raw toolbar in photoshop cc

Hello Guys,
I'm hoping someone can help me with this problem that's been driving me nuts for a couple of weeks now.
I have the very latest version of Photoshop CC - when I bring up Camera Raw in Photoshop (Filter-Camera Raw Filter), the toolbar at the top displays the older version of the tools available (screen shot below) - the newer version with the current tools doesn't appear. I've tried deleting and re-installing Photoshop CC numerous times now, tried numerous web searches and a search on this forum to no avail. I did have Photoshop 6 previously installed for a short while last year before I moved to CC, but I have uninstalled that already. Im on a mac using latest version of Mavericks. Curiously I can get the new version of Camera Raw if I use Bridge, but as I don't use Bridge for anything else this is not really a solution.
If anyone can help me out I will be really grateful!
Best wishes,
David

Hello folks...many thanks for your very quick replies, it's greatly appreciated. I'm sorry that I've taken longer than I would like to thank you all, work got in the way and this is the first chance I had to reply.
So yes, my original question was borne out of my own ignorance. I'm still learning about Photoshop and Bridge and thanks to the great tutorials on Kelby One I've come a long way. But not far enough it seems! After reading all your replies I finally realised that I was making a fundamental error, and wrongly assumed that the Camera Raw filter in Photoshop CC would give me the same toolbar as the CR plugin available in Bridge. Part of this was due to the fact that I don't currently use Bridge in my workflow - my images go into Aperture (for organisation and until recently minor raw adjustments) and from there I then pop into Photoshop, missing out Bridge altogether from my workflow. With all the tutorials I ve been watching on Kelby One, I've been slowly weening myself of Aperture and getting a much better handle on the intricacies of Photoshop for my editing and this also partly explains why I was getting confused.
Thanks again to everyone who replied and getting me back on the right track. It's all one big goddam learning curve - I hope to get there one day!
Best wishes,
David

I don't understand DNG Converter and legacy versions of Camera Raw

I would like some help understanding what happens when you use DNG converter and open the resulting file in an old version of Camera Raw or Lightroom.
I think I understand that with Camera Raw or Lightroom use two camera profiles for every supported camera. And that DNG also uses camera specific profiles.
But I don't understand what happens when you open a DNG Converter produced file (from a camera not supported in previous versions of Camera Raw or Lightroom) in an old version of Camera Raw or Lightroom. Is the camera specific profile being used to extrapolate colour information?

You are damned right.
I bought a Nikon D700, then Lightroom, then a book on Ligthroom, then a printer Canon Pro9500.
The problems I have, just to achieve a good print are insane.
Today, after reading that it's necessary to install a camera profile, I downloaded these profiles.
But which one fits my D700? D2X mode 1, D2x mode2 or mode3?
It's so frustrating.
I spent a fortune on it but I'm not able to get decent prints.

I have Photoshop Elements 12 for both PC and Mac (I use both). I have a new camera, Nikon D810. I downloaded the latest version of Camera Raw, 8.8. My D810 is listed as a supported camera model. However, when I try to open a raw photo in Photoshop Elements, I keep getting the message "Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw. I have tried reinstalling Camera Raw many times, and have tried to open many different raw files in Elements, and still get the same error message. Please help.

How did you try to install ACR 8.8. The only way I know of that works with Elements is to use the Updates Choice on the Help menu.
There are two charts supplied by Adobe that explain your RAW dilemma. This one tells you what your camera needs: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html This one tells you what version of software you need: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
In your case, the Nikon D810 needs Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 8.6 or Lightroom 5.6. (Congratulations on buying a new camera!)
To get to that level with Photoshop Elements, you will need to replace your Photoshop Elements 12 with version 13. Adobe caps ACR updates on version 12 at 8.5.
The most convenient way to get around it without spending any money is to use the FREE from Adobe DNG Converter. Download and install it from here for FREE: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=5855&fileID=5890 Once it is installed you can convert your D810 raw files to an Adobe RAW version with the .DNG file extension that most, if not all, versions of the various Adobe software programs can use. That includes old versions of Photoshop, Elements and Lightroom. DNG converter can be used as the tool to move your files from your memory card to your computer, is efficient, will convert in batches and is completely lossless. There is no risk of any image quality degradation or RAW functionality.

What is the process too ?
Thank you.

Raw support is version specific. There is no way to simply force install a new version of ACR into an older Photoshop. You need to consider upgrading or use the DNG converter.

How to tell: Which version of camera raw do I have?

How to tell which version of camera raw I have? The only Google search I found answering this question refers to is 2 years old and seems to no longer apply. There is no File, Edit etc. menu on the new version of Camera Raw with (Photoshop/Bridge CS6). I do use Adobe Application Manager to do my updates telling me if a new version exists or not, nevertheless I would like to know.

The F key works as described for me in CS6-ACR7.4 with ACR as the window with focus. The same function is available using the double-arrow-window icon at the right of the Preview checkbox near the top right of the preview area.
When in full-screen mode there is no title bar, but when I press the F key or click the double-arrow, again, ACR becomes smaller and I can see the title bar that includes the ACR version and camera model. This is on Windows7-64-bit on a 1600x1050 monitor. Perhaps you’re ACR’s title bar is off the top of the screen so you can’t see it, or maybe ACR optimizes some things if you have a smallish display—do you?
A plug-in is a program that interfaces with another program but is not independently runnable application, itself, bit is independently updatable, so in this instance, Photoshop doesn’t need to be downloaded and installed every time Adobe adds support for a few more cameras.

What do I do with this error? "could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of camera raw?"

It can be that you have an old version of Photoshop Elements and a new camera.

Sorry, I am on a MAC. I downloaded the link you provided and it's giving the same error message as above. Running CS5.
The error message you gave is from Camera Raw. I thought you said that DNG Converter didn't work?
The link I gave you is an article on getting your raw files to open in Camera Raw. Did you read it? I lazily gave you the link because this is one of the most common problems in this forum, and I get tired of saying the same thing over and over again. I could break it down for your specific case, but I was hoping you could read through the article and work it out for yourself.
But, here goes:
Your cameras are newer than your raw converter, so it won't understand them.
CS5 comes with Camera Raw 6, which can only be upgraded as far as 6.7.1. You can find out which version of Camera Raw you are running in three ways: in the settings title bar (Cmd-K), in the plug-in title bar (press F to start/stop full-screen mode to reveal the title bar), or Photoshop's Help menu (About Plug-ins).
Downloading raw files from newer Nikon cameras with old versions of Nikon Transfer will actually make them unreadable in Adobe software. They can be fixed with a free utility. Again, it's all in the linked article. You should be using up-to-date Nikon Transfer, or Adobe Photodownloader to avoid this problem.
All being well, you have good raw files on your computer. You can convert them to dng using Adobe DNG Converter. IF you are on OSX Leopard or Snow Leopard, you CAN'T use the latest version, because Adobe stopped support. But, if you ARE on a later OSX, you can download DNG Converter 8.6.
DNG Converter is designed to convert FOLDERS of raw files at a time. You select a folder of raw files, and tell it to create DNG copies. BUT, you have to set up the converter before you start using it...
If you load up DNG Converter, you'll notice a button labelled "Change Preferences". Clicking this, you'll see the first option is "Compatibility". Here, you must select the appropriate setting for the version of Camera Raw you HAVE (see above). If you can't work this out, just pick "Camera Raw 5.4 and later". THEN pick a folder of raw files and convert them to DNGs.
All the above is already in the article, but I gave you a personalised response. If you still can't get it to work, please give us more than one sentence. Tell us exactly what you tried, and describe exactly what happened. Which version of OSX you're running, what device and software you downloaded your raw files with, how you used DNG Converter, and so on.
I really should be in bed.

Why does Adobe refuse to provide the latest version of Camera Raw (like my Canon 6d) for CS5?

Why does Adobe refuse to provide the latest version of Camera Raw (like my Canon 6d) that could be supported in Photoshop CS5 or earlier? Its like Adobe saying you want a Camera Raw for you Camera then buy CS6 which is insulting to your customers.

Kenny_777 wrote:

Adobe's policy to to provide free updates (not upgrades) for currently shipping software, which means the current Photoshop CS6 and Camera Raw 7.x. Development on Photoshop CS5.x and Camera Raw 6.x stopped when Photoshop CS6 started shipping. While it may appear on the surface that's it's a ploy to force users to upgrade to the most recent version when getting a new camera, it's really a policy based on the technical issues of trying to provide backwards compatible software for application that are no longer being developed.
Camera Raw is a plug-in for Photoshop and as such, it is dependent on the Photoshop SDK in which it loads...it's also dependent upon the system level APIs being used by the applications. Could Adobe keep upgrading old software? Yes, but it would be a technical nightmare.
Your alternative is simply use the free DNG Converter if you want to use new cameras that weren't in existence when your old software was developed. Pretty simple really and it's not designed as insult to Adobe customers...it's actually an affirmative program to make sure current users are provided support.
The problem of new camera support for old software is really a problem caused primarily by the camera companies spawning off new cameras whose file formats are undocumented and proprietary. If the camera makers adopted a standard file format that could be opened in standard applications (kinda like DNG) then tis problem would be mitigated. You really should place the lion's share of the problem at the feet of the camera companies...

How to install Camera RAW update for Photoshop CS3?

I know this is an ancient version! But for now it's all I need. Anyway...
My Adobe Updater says "No Internet connection. Please check your Internet settings and/or firewall. Waiting for connection..." That's the first problem. I figured out how to manually update Photoshop and Bridge, but Adobe Updater still shows this message when trying to check for updates. Also, I've tried to update Camera Raw from 4.0 to 4.6 and I can't figure out how to manually install it. I knkow the website says to do the following:
Mac:
Exit Photoshop CS3 and Adobe Bridge.
Open the Finder.
Navigate to the root of the local disk (not the user’s home folder).
Navigate to Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS3/File Formats.
Move the existing plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensureyou keep this version in case you need to revert back.
Copy the Camera Raw plug-in, Camera Raw, from the download into the same folder as in Step 4.
Launch Photoshop CS3 or Adobe Bridge.
I manually entered "Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS3/File Formats" and it says this folder doesn't exist. Can anyone help me update my camera raw?!
Thank you so much!

Can't update camera raw file in photoshop cs5

I have Adobe Photoshop CS5, version 12.0.4. I am trying to open camera raw files ending in ARW (Hasselblad Stellar Camera) and PhotoShop tells me there are no updates available. I have downloaded the mac os file (using Yosemite, latest version) and get the message the installation was successful, however, PhotoShop still shows that the Camera Raw Version is still 6.0.0.205. I can view the ARW files in finder, however when I try to open the file in PhotoShop CS5 I get this message:
Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw.
Please visit the Camera Raw help documentation for additional information.

you can update ps cs5 to cr 6.7
update by downloading the files directly and then applying them:
pre cc updates: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
i'm not sure which camera you have but the hassleblad stellar II needs cr 8.8 or better.
your options (if that's your camera) are to upgrade ps or to use the dng converter.

The D610 didn't get out-of-the-box RAW support until Photoshop CC.
You can either upgrade to CC or use the DNG Converter to convert and open your DNGs in CS5.

Camera raw error in photoshop elements 11

I have PE11 with a Canon EOS Rebel T5 camera.
When I try to open the raw image (CR2) in photo editor it get an error:
"cannot open file because it appears to be from a camera model that is not supported
by the installed version of camera raw"
I have CR version 7.4.0.137
On the Adobe site, I looked up the Camera Raw version I needed.
The download I got was the Adobe DNG converter
I can't figure out how to make Photoshop use it.
Do I have to open and covert thru the DNG then open with Elements?
I'm trying to open my raw images and save in jpeg, but this seems like a multistep process that I shouldn't have to do.

The dng converter is a separate application from photoshop elements and converts the files to dng copies, which then pse 11 is able to open.

Bridge CS6 insist to open Camera raw files via Photoshop CS6 instead of CC

Hi
I´ve trying to start using Photoshop CC instead of CS6. The problem is that my Bridge CS6 is opening Camera RAWs to Photoshop CS6 as a default instead of CC. I`ve changed Finder defaults and as well as Bridges own File type assosiations to use Photoshop CC as a default, but still it isnt working. I wouldnt want to delete Photoshop CS6 completely.
Any help, anyone?

Which version mac os x are you using?
If it's mac os x 10.6.8 snow leopard, then post back before installing bridge cc.
I believe you need to install bridge cc so your camera raw files will open from the camera raw dialog in bridge cc to photoshop cc.
Also of note is the camera raw version for bridge cs6 doesn't have any of the new features that the bridge cc version of camera raw has.
If you open the the Creative Cloud Desktop.app, then you should see Bridge CC available for install.
