Photoshop CS3 Camera Raw Update: unable to open Nikon D5200 Raw files

I have a Nikon D5200, so I cannot view my raw files (.NEF) files in photoshop CS3 and I downloaded the Camera Raw 4.6 update, and installed it using the manual installation instructions found here: Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows : Camera Raw 4.6 update. After restarting photoshop and attempting to open a .NEF file, I still receive the error "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document. I have also tried previous updates (4.5 and 4.4.1) and they have also not worked. How can I fix this?

Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
The D5200 is supported in Camera Raw 7.3 and later. Older versions of Camera Raw cannot read D5200 Raw files.
Raw 7.3 is only compatible with CS6, CC or CC 2014
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
So you'll never be able to open Raw D5200 files in CS3.
Why doesn’t my version of Photoshop or Lightroom support my camera?
Choices: buy CS6 or join the Cloud.
Free alternative: download the Adobe DNG converter, convert all D5200 Raw files to DNGs then open the DNGs in CS3

Elements 11: Updated to ACR 7.4 but unable to open Nikon D7100 NEF Files

Elements 11: Windows 7: Updated to ACR 7.4.0.137 but still unable to open Nikon D7100 NEF Files

The Nikon Transfer that came with your camera should be ok, but if you’re using an older one, then it can change things in the raw files’ metadata that makes them unrecognizable to Adobe software.
There is a utility for fixing any NEFs corrupted by Nikon Transfer:

Unable to open Nikon D300 Raw in CS2. Why? How fix?

I use Photoshop CS2, latest Vers. (9.0.2) and I have the Adobe Camera Raw latest update for CS2, vers. 3.7, installed, and confirmed via the help menu that it IS installed. I use Windows XP professional 5.1 serv. pack 2. Camera is a Nikon D300 which shoots RAW as well as JPG. I am unable to open camera raw ("NEF") photos. Get a message, "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document."
I have no clue why PS won't open the NEF. The only thing close on Adobe's help documents suggests that if I've installed Nikon's own Capture software, it could interfere. But I HAVE NOT installed that software, and have held off for exactly this reason to avoid any possible conflicts.
I'd appreciate any help anyone can offer. Right now I'm frustrated beyond words both by the problem and by Adobe's online 'help.'

The Nikon D300 was introduced after the latest (and last) ACR plug-in for CS2.
A workaround is: download the latest DNG converter, convert yor NEF's to DNG format.
This universal DNG format
can be read by ACR 3.7.
Hope this helps,
Rob

Unable to open Nikon D750 RAW files in CS6

Hi all, this is my first time on the forum so please go easy on me!
I have been running cs6 on an iMac Snow Leopard version up until today and have had no problems opening any raw files from either my Nikon D700 or D4. Today I decided I should update my OS and am now running Yosemite.
I Did this as my assistant at a recent wedding has provided me with raw files from a Nikon D750 and I was unable to open them or even update the camer raw plugin through snow leopard (I took a 'if it's not broke then dont fix it' approach to software updates!).
I have now run updates for photoshop through the Help / Updates tabs and these are all up to date.
I have also updated camer raw / dng converter to version 8.8 which supports the D750.
however, I am now no longer able to open any raw files through photoshop. I just get a message saying photoshop does not recognise the file type. I cannot even view the thumbnails of the D750 images in finder.
I Have found the camer raw plugin in my files (through library / Adobe / plugins / cs6 etc.) but this is still detailing a 7.1 version plugin from 2012. I have also found the dng converter version 8.8 in one of the main folders which is different to the existing plugin location although I feel I am out of my depth with this now.
I am obviously doing something incorrect but I'm not sure what. Any help would be extremely appreciated.
many thanks.
Phil

Hi John,
I am running Plugin version 7.3.0.71 (dated 2012). I suppose I need to remove this plugin and replace it with the 8.8 version DNG converter do I?
At the risk of sounding simple, what is the difference between a Camera Raw Plugin and DNG Converter?
At the moment the Camera Raw plugin is in the following folder: Library / Application Support / Adobe / Plug-Ins / CS6 / File Formats.
The new 8.8 DNG Converter is located in directly in the Applications folder.
Yesterday I tried replacing the plugin with the DNG converter in the File Formats folder but this didn't seem to do anything (I deleted the camera raw plugin at the same time).
Thanks for your reply and I hope the above means something to you.

Photoshop unable to open Nikon D610 NEF files

I'm using Mac Os 10.6 and photoshop cs6 is unable to open NEF (RAW) files.
I've tryed updating it and also tryed Adobe DNG Converter but the version that runs on Mac Os 10.6 is unable to convert the NEF images. Is there any Cs6 uptdate coming?

Followed your suggestion and asked in the Adobe Camera Raw.
ssprengel arranged me the solution:

Is now working fine.

Cannot open Nikon D5200 RAW (NEF) Files in Bridge CS5.

How do I sort this problem? Is there a bridge CS5 update for this camera? (I can't find one in Adobe Downloads)
Dmecy

The D5200 was first supported in Camera Raw 7.3 (current version is 8.1)
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
which was first supported in Bridge CS6
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
Camera Raw 7.x is not compatible with CS5 or lower versions. Only CS6+
Your options:
Join the Adobe Cloud and get the latest versions of the software
Upgrade to CS6 (perpetual license) which is still on sale but is now abandonware since the all-new Cloud-only CC versions of Adobe software will be released on June 17. CS6 will remain on sale but won't be patched or updated other than the occasional bugfix.
Convert the D5200 Raw files to DNGs using the free DNG converter then open and edit the DNGs in CS5

Unable to open Nikon 750 NEF files in Photoshop Elements 13

I just got a Nikon D750 and I cannot open NEF files in Photoshop Elements 13 even when I download Camera Raw 9.0 and DNG Converter 9.0. What can I do?

This is a question for the Photoshop Elements forum. A moderator may find and move this tread for you.

Re-installed CS5: unable to open Nikon D5100 Raw files

I lost my hard drive and reloaded CS 5 and when I try to edit a Nikon D5100 camera raw photo is says it is not supported.

You probably just need to install the camera raw 6.7 update, since a new install of photoshop reverts to the shipped version of camera raw 6.0.
Try Help>Updates from within photoshop cs5.
If that doesn't work, you can download the camera raw 6.7 installers:
windows
Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.7 Update
mac
Adobe - Photoshop : For Macintosh : Camera Raw 6.7 Update
Any other updates you need for cs5 can be found here:

Photoshop CS4 will not open Nikon (NEF) raw files.

I recently tried CS6 Suite. Trial was over and I went back to Photoshop CS4. However, it would not open Nikon (NEF) raw files. I uninstalled and re-installed the PS CS4. This did not fix the problem. Can anyone help?
Thanks,

NEF files from which Nikon camera?

Opening Nikon D7000 raw files in Elements 8

I am unable to open Nikon D7000 NEF files in Elements 8. I have been unsuccessfull in downloading the version 5.7 update from the web site. After downloading several times the files are still not recognized in Elements 8.

I am using Windows 7. I tried selecting the folder that contained the folder holding the pictures to be converted. I then single-clicked the folder holding the pictures and hit select. A message came up stating that the source folder did not contain any supported camera raw files.I have spoken with my Elements software supplier and this is his response:
"I've done some digging and it turns out the Nikon D7000 wasn't supported in elements until the release of version 6.4 Adobe Camera Reader.So to make sure you have the latest ACR update installed. You can check which one you have by going into elements and clicking Help>About Plug-In>Camera Raw. And if it's not 6.7 then Help>Updates will find it and let you install the latest version. You could also try saving your camera files as .RAW instead of .NEF, and then opening them in elements. Adobe lightroom 4 should already have these plugins available right outside the box, but if you can save the money and run updates instead that would work just fine." I have checked for Elements updates for the Camera Raw plug-in and the message appears stating no updates are available. The camer raw plug-in version is currently 6.1.0.250.

What operating system are you using?
The most common cause is pointing the dng converter to the actual files and not just to the folder that the camera raw files are in.
There is an example of how on a windows system in this thread:

CS4 will not open Nikon D7000 NEF files; Is there a DNC that will open them?

I have CS4 and Light Room 2
Apparently there is no Camera Raw update for the new Nikon D7000 NEF files for CS4.
I therefore down loaded the Adobe Digital Negative Converter Verson 6.3.0.79 which is compatible with Camera Raw 5.4 or later.
Using that DNC, when I do step 1, "Select the images to convert" I get the message "No items match your search". It apparently is not recongnizing the D7000 NEF files.
Is there another DNC that will open and convert the D7000 NEF files?

I just bought the d7000 yesterday and was experiencing the same issue with cs4. I downloaded the DNG converter from adobe and selected the whole folder where the raw files were located (I was unable to select individual images) and it worked fine. It processed the files one by one with new name (without the $500 CS5 pricetag for now). The DNG files open in bridge and psd. Perhaps try selecting the folder? Good luck.

How / where can I donwload latest version of Camera Raw in order to open my D4s raw pictures ? I actually have Photoshop CS5 on Mac OS 10.9

Hello, it's all in the title :
How / where can I donwload the latest version of Camera Raw in order to open my D4s raw pictures ? I actually have Photoshop CS5 on Mac OS 10.9
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.

I bought a canon EOS Rebel T5i. It came with photoshop elements 11. PS won't open my C2 raw files and says my camera isn't supported by the software I have downloaded 7.4 dng converter and I still can't open the files. What do I need to do?

You need camera raw 8.4 for your camera, if it’s Digital Rebel T5 EOS 1200D EOS Kiss X70. It is not compatible with PSE11; so it’s a bit odd if that software was bundled with the camera except that it will work with jpegs. I suggest you download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will editable in PSE11(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.4
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

I am unable to open canon 6d raw files w/ elements 11. It seems that camera raw 7.1.0.384 is installed. I tried to update and nothing happens.Any help please?

Sometimes the Adobe servers can get busy; so try again from Expert Mode:

You should be able to select ACR 7.4 (see image) and then click the update button.
