Opening JPEGs in ACR from the Organizer

Many Photoshop Elements users like to edit JPEGs and other non-raw file formats with the Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) plug-in to Photoshop Elements. But if you rely on the Organizer for managing your files, opening a JPEG in ACR is clumsy – in the Editor, you must do File > Open As > Camera Raw and then navigate to the folder containing the file.
I've written a script, EditInACR, with which you can open JPEGs and other non-raw files directly in ACR from the Organizer.  You configure the Organizer to use EditInACR as an external editor, and then you use the Organizer’s Edit > Edit With command to open selected files. You can download the script at:
http://johnrellis.com/editinacr/

I've put out a new version of EditInACR that should work with PSE 6, 7, and 8, on Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7, both 32- and 64-bit.  (The previous version didn't work on 64-bit or with PSE 8.)

Please let me know if you encounter any issues, thanks.

  • 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?

  • Cannot open JPEGs in ACR via Bridge

    The strangest thing has happened recently. Where I used to be able to open a JPEG file in Camera Raw 6.3 when viewing in Bridge (CS5) it now defaults to opening them only in Photoshop (CS5). My preferred processing workflow is: Adobe Bridge > Camera Raw > Photoshop. But now the middle step processing in ACR is no longer happening automatically (I can do it manually but that's a hassle). I triple checked all my preferences and they are still set up to open JPEGs in ACR as the default. I use a Nikon D700 & D7000 and the NEF (RAW) files open fine in ACR, but not the JPEGs. I am using the Mac versions.
    Has something changed with how Adobe is supporting JPEGs in ACR or am I missing something.

    This is a workaround rather than a cure............................. for cs5 users............
    If you are unable to open .jpg files in adobe Camera RAW from Bridge and the Preferences have been set correctly in Photoshop Preferences, and all avenues have been exhausted or you are getting the error message in Bridge when you right click, or  ctrl + r, or go to the ‘Open in Camera RAW’ button at the top of Bridge  and also Getting the error message :
    ‘Camera Raw Editing Is not Enabled, Camera Raw Editing Requires that a Qualifying Product has been Launched at least once to Enable this Feature’
    And Bridge does open up RAW files OK
    Try this
    1.        In bridge, hit the ctrl + Alt key together and double click the .JPG image, this should open in Camera RAW (but only the one image clicked, not multiple files.
    or
    2.    Open Photoshop
    Go to File.....
    Browse in MIniBridge.........
    Browse for folder containing images..............
    Find image, right click and open in camera RAW
    (if you wish to open multiple files,  when a number of images have been selected,  the Camera Raw menu disappears when you right click), however, hold down the Alt + Crtl key together (Windows) and double click any of the highlighted images, they will all open in Camera RAW as they should do.

  • Premiere Element 13 The progress bar on the lower right for Indexing has frozen and when asking to open a video file in the organizer, Premiere does not open.

    The above says it all.

    I can't really answer you first question. What has happened is: when I moved an mpg file from my assets to the movie (I have added already a mpg file in the first part of the movie) a message box appears telling me the file is being "indexed" and then this Indexing progress appears in lower right of screen and it processes up to 99% and then freezes. The file appears in the time line, but the frame appears that says "media pending" and then nothing happens. I can go into the Widows media player and the mpg file plays okay, with audio. That is best I can tell you.
    Though I did not say this earlier, when I try to open this mpg file from the Organizer, Premiere does not open.
    My operating system is Windows 7 on a Dell computer with lots of ram and plenty of space on my hard drive.
    Properties of movie file
    These properties are the same as a file I already inserted in the timeline.
    I look forward to your help and thanks..

  • PSE 7 Won't open photo  in Quick Editor from the Organizer using Vista

    I just installed the PSE 7 on Vista and am unable to open a photo in the quick editor from the organizer. It doesn't matter if its a raw file or jpg file. My ram memory is 3.0 gb and I have a duo core processor with 2.0 gb each. I've downloaded the plug in for the camera raw plug-in 5.2 and also deleted the organizer's preferences. Any other suggestions what it could be?

    >difficulty opening.
    I do not quite understand what you mean by "diffuculty" so suggest that you be more specific about what happens.
    Then also tell us if you have the same results when you select just one jpeg and attempt to go from the Organizer to Full Edit.
    Next try editing that same jpeg file by going directly from the Welcome screen to Edit and then use the Editor workspace File menu to open that jpeg file. Post your results.

  • PS Elements 6.0 - Open Jpeg in RAW from 'Organizer'

    Is there any way to open jpegs in camera raw from the organizer? It's quite tedious to go to editor > open as > (search for file name)....
    Chris

    Hi Chris,
    May I ask a question please? Why would anyone want to open a JPEG image in a RAW editor in the first place? Am I missing a point here? I thought the very reason that RAW Editors exist is so that you can manipulate the 'unrefined' data straight off a camera's sensor (i.e. before any in-camera processing has taken place - which is what a JPEG image is, is it not?)
    Confused of London!

  • Is there a way to open a new window from the "Go" menu in Mavericks?

    Before Mavericks, I was able to go from the Finder to the top menu "Go" -> "Utilities", or Applications or Home… and a new window would open.
    Now I have to manually open a new window to avoid loosing my existing window.

    Now I have to manually open a new window to avoid loosing my existing window.
    Is there a way to open a new window from the "Go" menu?
    First, as others have already stated.....make sure the checkbox is deselected for "open folders in tabs instead of windows" in Finder Preferences.
    If you're like me and don't like tabs very much, there is a way to make folders always open in windows with a simple click (I'm using Mavericks 10.9.5).  Go to a root folder (for example, the Documents Folder), open it, and select View > Hide Toolbar, then all folders within that root folder will open in a new window.
    As an alternative method, any folder can be opened in a new window by holding down either Command Key while clicking the folder. But sooner or later you will forget to hold down that key, and then clicking on a folder will open in a tab (which will automatically resize the window and cause much aggravation).
    The Hide Toolbar trick will also work with any folder present on the Desktop. It will make all folders inside that folder open in new windows.
    To make the Applications Folder open in a new window when opening it from the menu bar at the top of the screen, you will have to open the main hard drive folder and use the Hide Toolbar trick. This will cause all folders inside it to open in new windows.
    Hope this helps.

  • With OSX10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02 when I try to open a PDF downloaded from the web I get 'There was an error opening this document. This file is damaged and could not be repaired. Preview will not open either. Older PDFs OK.

    I am running OS X 10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02. In the last few days I have been unable to open PDF's downloaded from the web. Reader gives the error message 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired'. Removing Reader and trying to use Preview to open these files give the error 'Preview cannot open this file. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise' (or something like that). Downloading the same files with Reader removed from my Mac Preview opens the files OK.
    I was recently prompted to update Adobe software but did not note exactly what the update was nor when it was done.
    Reader and Preview will both open PDFs I downloaded a week ago. Reader will also open files downloaded on another Mac running OS X 10.0.0 and copied to my Mac. Any ideas?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • I attempt to open a second window from the icon but it does not open then when firefox is closed it will not reopen because it is still running in processes but no window displayed until you kill the process and then restart firefox.

    Can you open word doc. In pages? (Opening a doc. From the web) in the iPad or iPod tuch?

    NH,
    This may seem a fine point, but iWork apps don't actually Open Office apps. They Import them. The reason I make this distinction for you is that when you view the result of the import, you may see some variations from what was in the Office document because of an imperfect translation, and when you make edits, you are editing an iWork document, not the original Office document.

    Hey Sierra, You can do just what you have stated. My question, what is your "other"? If it is over 1.5 GB you most likely have corrupt files. Doing a Restore to New, Factory restore should correct it. Just make sure you make a full backup of all information on your iPod to your computer before you restore, so you don't lose your stuff, contacts, videos, pictures, non-iTunes music, etc, use the cable and connect with your computer. Then, via cable, connect to your computer, run the Restore to new, don't use your backup. Treat this iPod as if it was your first one ever. When restore is done, set up and add what info you wish to install on this iPod. The music apps etc you purchased should be on your computer, if not you should be able to retrieve purchased apps and music from iTunes. Any music, videos, apps not purchased from iTunes will be lost to you if you do not save them to your computer or the cloud first. When your done, make a current Backup and you should good to go. Hope this helps. Good luck. Cheers.

    Hi.
    Does this only open on that specific site?
    In any case, you may want to:
    - instruct Firefox to handle PDF files in a specific way by going into Tools > Options > Applications and selecting the option you want for the PDF files
    - reinstall Adobe Reader and its Firefox plugin
    - install another reader instead of Adobe Reader. I recommend Foxit Reader ( http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/ ), since it's free, VERY light, VERY fast, safe and also has a Firefox plugin (make sure you don't have both Adobe Reader plugin and Foxit Reader plugin enabled/installed at the same time in Firefox)
