Opening .CR2 files in CS5 Photoshop from Canon T4i.

Mac OS 10.6.8.  Photoshop CS5.1 V12.1 x64.
I am trying to open and edit RAW images shot on my new Canon T41 Rebel. Will not open.
Tried to convert using Adobe DNG Convertor. Did not work. Is there a way without
upgrading to CS6?

Is there a way without upgrading to CS6?
Well, DNG Converter is free, is it not? You just need the right version. Other than that  - no. ACR 7.1 and above is onyl available for LR4 and CS6.

  • Can't open CR2 files in CS5

    What do I need to download to pen Canon CR2 files in CS5?

    without know what camera you're using, I would say that you need to download the Adobe DNG converter 8.8 is the current one. That will create dng files that can be opened in CS5.

  • Can't open CR2 files in CS5, updates fail

    I have some CR2 files I need to edit.  I have CS5.  When I try opening the files I get the following 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." 
    After looking online for some time, I read that updating my adobe applications should allow me to open these CR2 files.
    I go to the adobe application manager and it lists I need updates for bridge cs5, photoshop cs5, and photoshop camera raw.  I click the update button, watch the progress bar go from 0-100% in about a minute as if everything is just peachy, and the this pops up-
    "the following updates were unable to install.  If you wish to install these updates, please fix the problems below and retry:
    Adobe bridge cs5 4.0.5 update, there was an error downloading this update.  Please quit and try again later.
    Photoshop Camera Raw 6.7 Update
    There was an error downloading this update.  Please quit and try again later."
    I've "tried again later" several times over the last month, and get the same thing each time.
    When I click the "contact customer support" link it takes me to a page that says-
    Error "This serial number is not for a qualifying product..." when installing an upgrade or upsell
    All I want to do is edit these files.  I am happy with CS5, and not interested in paying a monthly fee to upgrade, just so I can open these files.  Help Please?!

    I had this issue today trying to reinstall CS5 on a new laptop.   After many hours and trying to get chat support, i read a forum post that suggested installing each update manually from the adobe website.  I tried and it was successful for me........
    Product updates
    good luck!

  • Can't open CR2 files in photoshop and camera raw

    This weekend I rented a Canon 5D Mark iii. I have downloaded the files and all of the thumbnails in camera raw say CR2 and when I try to open Photoshop does not recognize this product.
    I have:
    Photoshop CS4
    Camera Raw CS4
    Canon 5D Mark ii
    I have checked my updates folder and all my updates are current. Do I need to upgrade to CS5 or is there a way around this?

    Hi I recently had a problem opening CR2 files in PHotoshop cs4. I had to reinstall into a new computer, so obviously it installed the basic programme and not the updates.
    After trying everything, even calling the help desk, there was apparently nothing that can be donw as they no longer support cs4.
    I kept trying and found a you tube video, which i cant find again to add the link but i followed the link and with what I did earlier I can now open CR2 files in my photoshop cs4
    I found the relevany update that I needed to install and downloaded it, camera raw 5.2 ( Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Camera Raw 5.2 update )  this is the one for the Canon 5d Mk2
    After downloading it would not update the progeramme so I was in the same possition, but i noticed the files were there and i just needed to put them in the right place in photoshop so carried on looking for were to put the Plus In.
    This led me to the video.
    To the point.
    Download the update and save to a location where you will remember.
    open Adobe photoshop and go to "edit"
    Them " Preferences "
    then "General "
    Then " Plus-Ins"
    At the top you will see " Add Plug-Ins Folder " Check this box then navigate to the "win64" ( this is because mine is a windows 64 bit computer and the download is specific ) and Choose it.
    Shut down photo shop and try to open a raw.
    Bridge doesnt work for some reason but im going to keep looking.
    Hope this works for you as well.

  • Cannot open CR2 files in Elements 7

    Hi,
    I'm trying to open CR2 files in Elements downloaded from my Cannon 50D camera. Message says it's the wrong type of file. I've updated all the plugins, downloaded 5.4 and follow as many forums as possible but still no luck.
    Can anyone please help?
    Many thanks
    Mark

    Where do you get the error message?  When you import a raw file into the Organizer, or when you try to edit it?
    In the Editor, do Help > System Info.  What is the version shown for "Camera Raw"? Is more than one version shown?

  • How do i open CR2 files with photoshop cs5?

    Adobe camera raw will not open CR2 files in photoshop. How do i open these files? i have tried updating camera raw witht he last 8 updates but it still will not open. Camera raw shows a pop up box saying the file is not supported.

    I believe the proglem is with in Adobe CS5 and something just isnt working correctly and that maybe why it cant read or do anything with RAW files. I also noticed that Adobe's site says that it supports canon 70D CS2 files. my camera files are CR2, im not sure if maybe that might have something to do with my issue.
    Nothing to do with anything being faulty in CS5.
    The reason has already been given by tpolakov above: The 70D was first supported in Camera Raw 8.2 which is only compatible with CS6 and later. CS5 is not compatible with Camera Raw 8.2 so CS5 cannot read Raw files from the 70D. That's all there is to it.

    Thanks Tomsm13, I actually tried to convert the files to DNG but that doesnt work either. I used the latest compatable Adobe DNG converter and i get a message that it can not find any camera RAW files to convert.
    You select a folder containing CR2 files, not a CR2 file.
    See Camera Raw: How to use Adobe DNG Converter - YouTube
    From 1.40 onwards.

  • I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

    I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

    Canon 1DX support was added to ACR in version 6.7, 7.1.  An updated CS6 should be at level ACR 8.6.  If your ACR is not at level 8.6 try using CS6 menu Help>Updates.  If that does not install ACR 8.6 try downloading the ACR and DNG 8.6 converter and see if ACR 8.6 will install into your CS6.

  • Photoshop CS5 won't open CR2 files. Running OS X 10.10.1 and camera raw version 6.7.1

    Photoshop CS5.1 will not open CR2 files. I am running OS X 10.10.1 and adobe photoshop camera raw 6.7.1.  It was working fine when I had OS X Mavericks. It wasn't until I updated to Yosemite that the problem started.

    Hello,
    I had recently bought an iMac but I'm unable to open cr2 files when I'm trying to do a double click(or doing a preview) to open in Yosemite. Although I can open them in Lightroom 5.7 and could not in CS6(understand I need to upgrade it). I know there should be a way to open cr2 files by directly double clicking on the image, but as of now I'm unable to find in the net.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Photoshop Elements 10. Cannot open .cr2 files (Canon 650D)

    Running win 7. Latest version camera raw is 6.7. It will not open .cr2 files from Canon 650d. Adobe says need camera raw 7.1 which supports 650d. Cannot update Elements 10 with 7.1 as it is not for this software.
    How do i open cr2 files?

    You have two alternatives:
    (1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.4
    Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.4
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • How to open CR2 files in photoshop elements 10

    Who knows how to open CR2-files from a Canon Powershot S100 in Photoshop Elements 10?

    Hi,
    The version of Camera Raw that you reported should support the S100 CR2 images.
    If you load the editor, go to the File menu and select Open, then point to the file, are you saying that it displays the error message?
    Have you tried opening the file with Canon's Zoombrowser?
    Which operating system are you running on?

  • Can't open CR2 files in PhotoShop CC. Raw plugin version is 8.3.0.141. MacBook Pro OS 10.9

    I'm trying to open .CR2 files (Canon EOS Digital Rebel XS) with PhotoShop CC on my Mac. When I try to open them I get an error saying the file can't be opened. The raw plugin version is 8.3.0.141. Adobe's charts say I need at least "4.6,5.1" so I would assume my version should open it. What gives?

    First thing I should do is to link you to the Camera Raw forum where the members there have a far better understanding of Camera Raw problems than I do.
    If the generic advice doesn't work, it's time to bring in the specialists.   Click on that link and post your problem with the CR2 files.

  • How to open *.CR2 files from new 60D ??

    My Elements 7 will not open or recognize CR2 files from my new 60D.  Nor will it allow me to open CR2 files in another format.  I get error messages saying they are "the wrong type of file" or that a codec is missing.  It opens CR2 files from my two Rebels just fine.  I have downloaded the most recent codec (1.7.0) I can find from Canon to no avail.  I downloaded a trial version of Elements 9 - same problem.  Am I doing something incorrectly?
    Thanks, JackM

    Well, after downloading - and purchasing - PE9, and downloading ACR 6.2, am still having the same problem; not recognizing the 60D CR2 files.  I have actually downloaded the 6.2 several times, with and without unzipping and extracting files, to no effect.  I will try calling Adobe Monday to see what the heck is going on.  This is extremely disappointing.
    I may have to resort to use DPP for raw conversion, save as a TIFF, then open in PE for editing (this does work).  If that's my only option, I hope Adobe will refund my purchase price.  I'll try to keep you updated on what happens.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Can't open cr2 files from my 5D but can from my 20D

    i just got a new computer (windows vista) and on my old computer i could open cr2 files from both my 20d and my 5d just fine. but now on my new computer i can't open the cr2 raw files from the 5d but can from the 20d. I have photoshop cs2. I am not planning to upgrated to cs3 anytimes soon, do I just need to install a plug in? Please help.

    Kristen,
    No, no, no. The DNG Converter is a stand-alone executable program. You can even put it on your desktop. You would need it only if your camera model is NOT supported by ACR 3.7, which is the latest version you can use with Photoshop CS2.
    In that case, you would use the DNG Converter to convert your raw images to DNG files first and then opening the DNG files in ACR 3.7.
    Now, the ACR 3.7 plug-in has to be installed in the correrct location, which is where the old ACR plug-in resides. You will be replacing that old, obsolete ACR plug-in (while Photoshop is NOT running).
    [The default Photoshop installation comes with and installs that obsolete ACR plug-in.]
    Read the instructions on the download page very carefully, and refer to the FAQs of this forum on the same page where you added this topic.

  • Can I open psd files created in Photoshop CC with lower version? Actually CS5.

    Can I open psd files created in Photoshop CC with lower version? Actually CS5.
    My home and office have different version each.

    Yes, PROVIDED that the file has not been saved with any layers containing any of the specific new features introduced starting with Photoshop CC and higher.
    If the file has been flattened or if it was flat to begin with there will be no problems.

  • Photoshop cs3 cant open CR2 files

    Troubleshooting 101: What OS? What camera? What version of Camera Raw do you have installed?
    Odds are you either need to update Camera Rae to 4.6 (the last for CS3) or download the DNG Convertor 5.4 to convert recent (as in the latest Rebel or 5D M3's).
    A place to stop regarding compatibility would be the Camera Raw product page and if you had bothered to mention your OS we could point you to downloads as well.
