Open in Camera raw grayed out for some tifs not others, bridge

I searched but could not find a solution. CSR. PC. Windows xp. In CS4 Bridge the option to open with Camera raw is grayed out in the file menu for some tifs and not others - It shows up grayed out on the file menu, but doesn't show at all when right clicking,  even with the files where open with camera raw is not grayed out in the file menu. I have purged the cache, deleted all temp files, closed both bridge and photoshop and still I cannot open the tif in camera raw. It is grayed out. If I go to the pic I touched up yesterday the option is not grayed out. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Uh, this is a forum...not an email tech support organization...
As for your issue, it's simply not clear what you are doing or what issue you have. Can you not open the scanned images via Camera Raw from within Bridge? If you can then you will need to go through each image and adjust the ACR settings before you would be able to process them. Depending on how you set up your actions, Photoshop's Batch may or may not catch settings...that part is pretty complicated.
Also, I would question your use of JPEGs vs TIFFs. I would suggest scanning as 16 bit TIFF and running those through Camera Raw...you will be loosing a lot to scan into 8 bit JPEG and then re-running through Camera Raw. You really want to be sending ACR 16 bit images...

  • Why is "Open in  Camera Raw" greyed out?

    I'm using CS2 and recently  upgraded to Mac OSX 10.5.8 from 10.4.11. Camera Raw has never been  available to me, but I really need it now because there is no version of Canon's raw file utility (Digital Photo Professional) that will work with 10.5 on a Powerbook G4.  The Camera Raw plugin is in  it's correct place in Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plut-Ins/CS2/File Formats/Camera Raw.plugin.  Neither Camera Raw.plugin 3.6 nor 3.7 works. I am using a Canon 40D.  Please help.

    Support for Canon 40D was added in ACR 4.2, which works with Photoshop CS3 not CS2. http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3730
    However you can download and install the latest DNG converter, convert your files using the save options compatible to camera raw 4.1 and later.You will then be able to open your 40D dng files in CS2.

  • Batch of images opened in Camera Raw appearing out of sequence

    Hello!
    I'm using Photomechanic to select groups of images that I then want to adjust in Camera Raw. If I select 15 or so images, they do not appear in Camera Raw as per numerical sequence, but in some kind of random order, which makes adjusting take longer since similar images are not appearing together.
    I'd like the images to appear in order as per sequence number. How can I fix this?
    I'm using photoshop cs6 and a mac oxs10.6.8.
    Thanks!

    Usually, overall yellow/warm casts can be easily and quickly reduce or
    eliminated by bumping the White Balance's Temperature slider down a little
    bit (e.g., from 4500 K to 4300 K).
    Eric
    Jim, thanks for your reply.  I think this will help me.  I also upgraded to
    Camera RAW 5.4, and there appear to be some more profile options, such as
    Adobe Standard.  It looks like this works pretty well.  I will have to do some
    more testing at a later time with the CR defaults as well.

  • Fcp menus gray out for some reason

    what does it mean if your menus gray out after a render (i have to force quit)?? i upgraded to tiger, is there conflict problem with fcp 4 in tiger? i don't remember having this problem in panther.
    FCP 4.5 HD, latest quicktime, Mac OS 10.4.1, 1 gig memory, dual 867mhz g4

    I have only had this happen twice and the second time was just this morning. On my laptop running Tiger latest version and FCP 4.5 and QT 7.1 (I think)
    Did a long overnight render and this morning... all greyed out.
    It's one of those things that make you question wether you're really awake or not because you think it's just that you haven't got the program selected or something equally as simple. And of course, I couldn't remember what caused it last time. (which I believe was pre Tiger)
    But after trying everything I could think of, I finally had to Force Quit. Good news is that the only thing I could get to work was SAVE from the keyboard. But it would not quit from the keyboard.
    Opened the project after the restart and all was fine.
    PS, my computer was set to not sleep.
    I had no second monitor attached or selected.
    This is the only small issue I've had when using FCP 4.5 and Tiger, otherwise all has been worjing great including capture and PTV.

  • 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?

  • Connected wirelessly to Canon printer MX340. Duplex printing option is grayed out for me but not on my daughter's non-Mac laptop or husband's PC which is connected to the printer. Mine has two-sided option available at the Apple store. Any ideas?

    We use a Canon MX340 series printer/fax/scanner. My husband has his PC hooked to it and my daughter prints wirelessly from it with no problem with her non-Mac laptop. I have trouble printing. Often it does not print and I have to delete the job from the queue. Other times it will print OK but two-sided printing is always grayed out in my printing options. When I took it to the Apple store and printed on their network (selecting their printer) the two-sided option was available. Makes me think the printer is set up wrong, but I am not certain. A fw times at home when trying to print I got an error message about incompatible fonts, but it printed anyway after deleting the job and starting over. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks

    OK, just an update.
    Two years into this, I still find I can only do full duplex printing by using Windows XP running inside of VMWare. I've had occasional, ephemeral luck with duplex printing, but nothing long lasting.
    I've tried this in Tiger and Leopard (now at 10.5.6), and I've had this issue with Canon printers MP780 iP4300 and MP610, direct connected to my Core2Duo 17" MBP. I also have this issue when printing over a network, but that's a much harder problem to solve.
    Currently, this is my #1 most pressing issue for my Mac, because not being able to print from a computer when you print a lot is a really big drag, and using VMWare all the time is also a really big drag. Other people posting seem to be able to print in Duplex using the very same printers. What could be wrong with my MBP? I see the duplex box option, but most of the time it's grayed out as if my printer doesn't support duplex.
    I've tried direct selecting printer drivers from the system preferences, but nothing seems to have an effect. And this is off of a clean Leopard install.
    My wife now has similar problems with her new MBP - the Canon print drivers (CUSP & non CUSP) aren't allowing the Duplex box to be checked.
    I am willing to pay good money to anyone who thinks they can fix this problem.
    Thank you,

  • Flash Player Works for Some Users, Not Others

    I have recently upgraded my home computers to Windows 7 (64 bit). My kids all have standard user accounts. I have installed Adobe Flash Player as an administrator. It works for me (administrator) and some of my kids (standard accounts) but not for all of my kids. As far as I can tell, the kids' accounts are identical, so I can't figure out why some of them can use Flash Player and some cannot on the same computers.
    For the accounts where Flash Player does not work, we get a prompt to install the latest version (which, of course, is already installed). Even when I try to reinstall it (using my administrator password), the problem is not resolved. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Flash Player, with no success.
    I use both Windows Parental Controls and Windows Family Safety for my kids' accounts. All four kids have the same settings. I tried turning these off temporarily to see if that would make a difference but it did not.
    I am baffled. Help!

  • Open in Camera Raw greyed out (Mac)

    I am unable to open files in Bridge CS3 using this option which is greyed out. I have downloaded the latest upgrade (4.3) twice, checked the location of the plug in (...>CS3>File Formats), purged cache, checked permissions, read forum submissions here and still cannot find a solution. Powermac G4 i.25 GHz, 1 Gb DDR Ram, Mac OS 10.4.11, Adobe CS3, Photoshop 10.0.1, Bridge 2.1.1.9 Is there any other action I can take please?

    <br /> While you're still running on such a miserly amount of RAM, make sure you do not let Photoshop use more than about 45% of available RAM, or you'll be starving the OS and Bridge of RAM.

  • Export option grayed out for some "unknown" reason.

    I have several clips I've downloaded from the net (mostly music videos), and some of them I can export into any type of file I like (such as iPod video), but some of them I can't export at all. Is there some kind of copyright protection embedded into these files? Is that even possible using Quicktime?

    Yes, there is a flag that can be set in a file so that it is saved as un-editable. In this state, you can't export, copy, save or in any other way alter the movie using QuickTime Pro.

  • Multi-row "Drag and Drop" works for some users, not others

          Background: We are working on Win7 SP1 clients, Project Prof. 2010, SP2
          A couple of users have reported that they cannot move ("drag") multiple selected rows in a task sheet, only a single row at a time. Other MS Project users around them (and myself) can move multiple rows with the "Drag"
    feature. "Drag and Drop" is selected in the "Options/Advanced" section of both their local global template and the Enterprise Global.
         To my knowledge, the multiple row selections contain no collapsed summary tasks, in case that might be an issue.
         I'm suspecting some Windows setting is amiss on the offending clients, but wanted to see if anyone else had seen this behavior before in Project Prof. 2010.
         Thanks!

        Thanks for the response, Shiva!
        User community is on MS Project 2010 (14.0.7011.1000) SP2, MSO (14.0.7128.1000)
        To reproduce the problem, MS Project user will select multiple task rows by selecting first row, then holding MB1, and "sliding" to the last row desired. The problem manifests itself by NOT turning the cursor into the "four-arrow cross"
    after selection is accomplished. If only one row is selected, the ability to move that row alone is available.
         Again, only a couple of users (that have called me!) are seeing it. Their officemates are not having an issue.

  • 10g Write back works for some users, not others

    Dear Gurus,
    I have a strange problem with the Write Back in my system. We use Write-back pretty extensively and have maybe 10-20 separate reports, updating a number of tables.
    We have been using this system for almost a year with no problems - Myself (logging in as Administrator) and a member of the Business team, logging in as herself (a member of the Presentation Server Administrator Group).
    We now require two more Business power-users to use our Write-back reports. I have added them to the Presentation Server Administrator group. However, when they try to enter values into ANY of the write-back reports, they get the following error;
    An error occurred while writing to the server. Please check to make sure you have entered appropriate values. If the problem persists...
    *State: HY000. Code 10058 [NQODBC]... A general error has occurred. [nQSERROR 27024] The EXECUTE PHYSICAL statement must specify a physical SQL statement to execute (HY000)*
    SQL issued: EXECUTE PHYSICAL CONNECTION POOL "GL Oracle Data Warehouse Connection Pool"
    I do not understand why the write back is working without error for my own user, the Admin user and a member of the business team who is in the Presentation Server Administrator group, but not for two new additions to that group.
    I have checked that the Presentation Server Admin group is granted on the "Enable/Manage Write Back" privilege and on the Execute SQL privilege.
    Any ideas what else I could check?
    Thanks,
    A.

    Hey Amith,
    Thanks for your quick reply! Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be the case. The system is pretty much wide open, apart from the Write pack privilege, which only the Presentation Server Administrator group has access to.
    I'm having another of my Presentation Server Administrators who has been in the group forever try to use the write back.
    There's no specific connection pool or database level permissions for write back, is there? And there's no specific permissions which need to be set on the xml template files?
    Thanks,
    A.

  • LR3 DNG Edit in Photoshop Does Not Open in Camera Raw

    I have LR 3.2 64 bit and CS5 v12.0.1 64 bit and Camera Raw 6.2 under Windows 7. I do 95% of my editing in Lightroom. I do occasionally choose "Edit in Photshop" and in the past a DNG or CR2 image opened in Camera Raw (at least I think that is the case). Recently however, I noticed that if I have a DNG or a CR2 file, right click, and select "Open in Photoshop..." it opens the file directly in Photoshop, not in Camera Raw. I have tried deleting my LR3 preference, deleting my CS5 preferences, and deleting both, but the behavior does not change. Does anyone have an idea to explain this?
    Thanks,
    Alan.

    Thanks for the quick response. For some reason I was thinking that it had happened that way in the past, but now that I think about it, I guess there would really be no reason for it to open in Camera Raw. Sorry for the unnecessary question.
