Open in Camera Raw, from shell

Does anyone know what the command line for PS CS3 is so I can add an Open in Camera Raw option to JPEGs and TIFs in the windows shell?
ie. "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS3\Photoshop.exe" -1%
or whatever the standard open line is

Ah this is just because I haven't fully updated my bridge yet, but the solution still works fine

  • Why won't files open in Camera Raw from Bridge?

    I am trying to open files in Camera raw from Bridge but get the following message.
    "Bridge's parent application is not active."
    Both Bridge and CS5 are open and I have opened camera raw previously.
    Any suggestions.
    Cheers

  • Tiff previously edited in ACR will not open in Camera RAW from Bridge

    Yes, I have googled this and found instances going back to 2010 with no satisfactory answer. I have Photoshop 5.1 and the latest ACR and Bridge that work with it. 2011 MAC Mini 10.8.2.
    I scanned a landscape oriented printed email image at 800 spi as a portrait orientation and saved it as a tiff. I opened this tiff in Preview and decided it needed more than minor tweaks so I opened it in ACR from Bridge, made a few adjustments and saved it. I thought I could see what I was doing better if it was in landscape orientation again so I opened it in Preview and rotated 90 deg CCW, saved it as a tiff. Going to Bridge I found Open in Camera Raw greyed out. I went back to Preview to see if I could get what I needed in its Tools while viewing it in landscape. Adjustments took forever this time, so I gave up and took a look at the image characteristics. Rotating in Preview had changed the image size to 3.3333...... times larger at 240 ppi still aRGB, still a tiff. This has never happened before, including slow adjustments
    I duplicated the rotated file and changed it back to 800 ppi and normal size, went to Bridge, Camera Raw still greyed out. Original unrotated image
    that had been edited in ACR and saved will still open in ACR.
    All kinds of strange things have happened since updating to 10.8.2, but I don't think this is one of them because of the complaints I have seen that date back to 2010. I did a full maintenance routine, i e cleared RAM, reboot in single user with fsck -fy, repaired permissions, back up with SuperDuper which repairs permissions again. Then I tried Bridge again, original will open, rotated won't.
    Anyone know the answe?

    The answer is that making edits in ACR and saving it creates layers in the tiff and Bridge will then not open it again in ACR unless you flatten it. I still don't know why Preview increased the image size by 3.333.....x or why ACR increased the tiff file size by 2.6x and why the flattened tiff is 2x the file size of the original scan but the image dimensions are the same. This stuff apparently is above the pay grade of anyone in google, too.

  • Is there any way to have an image open in Camera Raw from the Organizer as I did in Bridge?

    I am just trying out PSE 9 as an upgrade from my PSE 8. I have been able to open jpeg files in Camera Raw right from Bridge. I seem unable to do this in Organizer and, since not all of my photos are in raw, I use this feature a lot. Is it possible to open a jpeg file by double clicking on the thumbnail as I presently do?

  • Opening in Camera Raw from Bridge

    Bridge will not longer allow me to open photo files directly into Camera Raw, saying a "qualifying" program must be open; I have Bridge and Photoshop CS 6.5 Extended open.  What else is needed????

    Not sure what CS6.5 Extended is.  There is CS6 and CS5.
    If you try to launch Bridge from the parent program, and still get message, it is highly likely you have an expired Adobe trial on you computer.  Find and destroy and Bridge will work.  Bridge is looking for permission from the trial.

  • Can I open Adobe Camera Raw from LR?

    I use LR 3.4.1 as my image browser but occasionaly would like to edit images using ACR as well as Photoshop.  At the moment I have to go to "Edit in Photoshop ..." then switch to ACR via Bridge but would like to go straight to ACR without opening PS or bridge first.  Is this possible?  I know if open an image from finder it will automatically open in ACR first then PS, then have to import to LR but wondered if there was a shortcut from Lightroom.

    I have been evaluating LR as an adjunct to Photoshop (or maybe the other way around!) and was amazed to see that an .nef opened in LR, developed and saved with, I assume, a sidecar, nevertheless does not allow that same file opened in ACR, to access that xml file as at least a choice. I was going to ask why, or how to do it, when I discovered this thread.
    The path to doing so is convoluted but doable. Once you open in ACR from the Smart Object file, one needs to copy the settings save them and then when opening another nef in ACR without going to LR, one then loads those settings.
    Makes for a big file of short time sidecars, unfortunately.
    I assume the reverse is also true: Opening an nef in LR that has an ACR side car, that sidecar is ignored. Hafta try.
    Why do I do this, you ask? The UI is far better in ACR than in LR. That bittsy side panel of tweaks is fussy and is similar to DXO in layout. I don't like theirs either. But lightroom does have it's stregths, and that is the data base.
    Ok, I opened an nef already possessing a sidecar from ACR and LR did use it. So why not the other way around, or am I missing something?

  • Cannot open some jpgs in Camera Raw from Bridge

    A couple of days ago, I rated select images from a set as 5 stars, and now I cannot open these in Camera Raw from Bridge. I get no error messages or anything, there is just simply no option to Open in Camera Raw from the File menu, or the right-click menu. The images I did not rate still open in Camera Raw, and not all of the starred ones have this problem - just 20 or so consecutive images. This makes no sense to me, as all the images as far as I can tell should operate the same way. They are all jpgs. I can find workarounds to this like working in Photoshop (all the images still open in Photoshop) or possibly just reloading the photos from the memory card, but I'd like to know why this would even be a problem to avoid it in the future. I'm using CC on Win 8.

    I should add that JPGs edited with ACR usually need to be writable for ACR to be able to store the adjustment-settings inside themselves.  RAW files typically use an XMP sidecar to store settings, but JPGs typically don't.
    If the files weren't read/write then ACR would have no way to store the adjustments in them and so is smart enough to not make them available for editing.
    The other hint is that if you copy the files to your desktop--where the permissions are likely to be more friendly, they work.
    To check the permissions, right-click on one of the files in Explorer, select Properties from the context menu and look at the Security tab.  Look at the various user-groups, like Users, Authenticated Users, Administrators, etc, and see what access each has to one oft he problem files, and then to one of the files that works ok.
    You might also check the Effective Rights of a particular user to a particular file by clicking on the Advanced button in the Security tab.  Here is an example where I show only Read + Read & Execute access to an NEF for general users, but when I check my own logged in User (steve) I have Full Control which includes all the other access privileges, and this is either because I'm in the Administrators group or I am the owner, I'm not sure.  It is possible that Bridge or Photoshop is running in a user context other than your logged in user, or it's possible that another user accessed the files and changed the permissions to them.

  • No options in Bridge or Photoshop to open with camera raw

    Photoshop CC 14 installed. I do not get an option to open in camera raw from bridge or from file/open in photoshop. I am trying to batch work on PSD documents from camera raw but cannot open them in camera raw.

    That would be right.  You can't open PSD files in ACR.  How would ACR deal with layers, along with all the other features embedded in a PSD file?

  • Cannot open in camera raw

    I have 4 psd files I just made.
    In bridge, right click has no open in camera raw option. Also no open in camera raw from menu.
    Last resort: from photoshop open, change dropdown to camera raw -- but then error message comes up:
    "Could not complete your request because the file-format module cannot parse the file"
    thanks!

    I have Photoshop set up to Always Maximize Compatibility, myself.
    This enables the use of some 3rd party viewers (e.g., IrfanView), and helps better ensure any PSD will be editable by more different software/versions.  That said, most "Never" mode saves can actually be opened by an older version of Photoshop, as long as features not available in the older version have not been used.
    I think the data compression may be better when set to Never, because even a flat Background-only file will make a smaller PSD file when set to Never.  Some say it's faster, too.
    However big disks are cheap, computers are faster than ever, and I hate closing off options that might mean I "can't get there from here" some day in a situation I just haven't anticipated. 
    But that's just my preference.
    A single layer Background-only file can be opened with Camera Raw even if saved with "Never Maximize Compatibility".  A multi-layer file cannot.  So yes, if you flatten the file you can keep the "Never" setting.
    -Noel
    P.S., the "flattened composite" created by saving a compatible PSD is not really a preview - I used the wrong word before.  It's what you'd get with Layer - Flatten, and has all the quality thereof.

  • I am trying to softproof an image using a CMYK .icc file. I sent an image from LR 5 to PS CC 2014, opened the Camera Raw FIlter, but the hyperlink to access workflow is not showing up in the CR dialogue box... Any ideas why this might be?

  • How to open jpg, tiff files in camera raw from elements 10 organizer

    How to open JPG, TIFF files in camera raw from Elements 10 organizer.

    Thanks for that Damead, I agree with you that Organiser is real pain (there is a total lack of intuitiveness if that is  the correct word).
    For my own work I use 'Lightroom' for around 90% of the time, only going into PSE10 for the 10% difficult bits the Lightroom can't handle.
    I only needed to sort out the JPEG file opening method within PSE10 for some freinds in a small Photo Group that I run in Woodhall Spa, UK. 50% of the 12 members are beginners & a number of them do not have Raw capability on their Camera's, but now they can get their JPEG's into Camera Raw within PSE10 they have the same simple tabular form of adjustment sliders (not as many as in Lightroom of cause) but it gets over the labourious problem of going thru the PSE10's individual tool selection process each and every time since we are trying to get everyone in the Group working with individual Tools rather than the 'Auto' functions. We do this so that they learn what they are doing rather than staying 'dumb&happy' within Auto all the time & they also learn how to get more detailed control for each photo.
    Ref. your comments on file handling/usage, I agree with your comments. Its far and away much more preferable to set up a file structure in 'Finder" (or in 'Explorer' if still using Windows) that you understand so you always know how to find the files. Also, I also never ever use the Camera Auto Load programme but physically 'drag & drop' photo files direct from the 'card' into the file system so I always know thier place (ie: they go into the location I want, not that which the Auto Loader wants).
    As regards your comment about 'Lightroom', I don't have any problems at all since I just imported the whole of my photo file structure into the Lightroom Library Catalouge and then it automatically shows up on the LHS of the screen, still in that format, so you can search it direct within Lightroom and display all of the photo's in variuos arrangements and sizes; everything is as easy to find as it is in 'Finder' plus of cause you have all the 'Tagging' possibilities to use as well. As you add more new files into the 'Finder' structure, all you need to do in Lightroom is reimport, starting 1 level up from the new files and Lightroom will find the new files that need loading (ignoring the older ones already in the Library at that or lower levels) then 1 click and its done.
    Your comments about getting others to follow a set file structure is very pertinant and also applies to evrything else that one ever does apart from just photo work; the times I have had to help others find info/files etc on their PC's because they don' know the location of anything is too many to contemplate.

  • I can't open Camera Raw from Bridge

    Why is it that I can not open CR from Bridge. I can see it in Plug ins. I don't see any reference to CR in Preferences. Why is that?

    What version of photoshop and operating system are you using?
    What kind of file do you want to open in camera raw?
    If you right click on a camera raw file thumbnail in Bridge, do you see Open in Camera Raw?

  • Can't open Camera Raw from Bridge CS3

    Need Help with the following issue. Until recently I was able to open & edit camera raw files in Bridge CS3. Tried to update Bridge from Adobe website and all of a sudden the "open in camera raw" option under File is greyed out. Also right-clicking the raw (CR2) file does not allow me to open the file in camera raw and I can't view the files as thumbnails any longer. When I double click the file Photoshop opens and subsequently camera raw. I have really lost the convenience of opening the file in Bridge and I'm afraid my workflow will suffer. Any help would be appreciated. I am running Windows 7. Thanks.

    I am having this exact same problem and just upgraded to Windows 7...many people are saying to update the Plug In for Camera Raw to 4.6, but that is not working for me to see it in Bridge or Camera Raw.
