Photoshop cs4 ORF or DNG files in bridge

I have installed my Photoshop cs4 in my new computer wich is running windows 7 But I cannot preview ORF or DNG files in bridge I th
ink this may be a activation problem

If I do that it doesn't get any bigger just makes the window bigger, not the image
If that is the case something is wrong with your set up. The slider bottom right  Yammer p pointed you to does alter the size of the thumbnails, not the panel itself.
Top right are the workspace names, at the right of it is triangle, click on it and choose reset workspace. Otherwise restart bridge holding down option (mac) or control (win) when restarting bridge and choose reset preferences.
If still out of luck provide more details about your computer (RAM / VRAM) OS version and exact Bridge version.

    Keep in mind that if your camera is newer than the last released version of Camera Raw (5.7) for Photoshop CS4, Adobe does provide a free solution for compatibility, as Curt has mentioned, through the use of the free DNG Converter application.
    The way that works is this:
    1.  You get your raw images from your new camera into a folder on your computer.
    2.  You run the latest DNG Converter application and choose the folder.
    3.  It converts the entire folder full of images to .DNG files.
    4.  You open a DNG file as you would an older raw file, with your old version of Photoshop.
    While the DNG Converter provides you a way to continue to use your older Photoshop software with a new camera, keep in mind that there are significant improvements in the raw converter in the latest version of Photoshop that may allow you to make better images out of your raw files if you do choose to upgrade Photoshop.

  • Why will CS4 not open DNG files converted from Olympus E-M1 raw files?

    For several years I have been able to use the DNG Converter to convert .ORF raw files from my Olympus E-M1 and then open them for processing in CS4. Suddenly CS4 quit recognizing these DNG files saying "Photoshop could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file"
    I have not changed any preferences. I'm using E-M1 v3.0, DNG Converter v8.3.0.141 on a Mac. I have deleted DNG converter several times, even reinstalled an earlier version but nothing changes.
    However, CS4 will open DNG files converted from Pentax raw .PEF files from my K-5. Weird. It's the Olympus raw DNG conversions that won't open.
    I can view the DNG converted files in question in Mac's Preview just fine but not CS4. Any ideas will be appreciated.

    Be sure the DNG Converter's compatibility is set to provide support for your version of ACR:

  • Photoshop CS4 stopped reading CR2 files.  Update failed.

    My Photoshop CS4 quit reading CR2 files from my Canon EOS 5D Mark II.  Photoshop update with new raw version failed.  Please advise.
    And many thanks!

    This screen shot shows the correct path to the appropriate folder in CS4 on the Mac, which is not called "ACR folder" (that must be a Windows thing).
    The version of ACR in the image is older (5.2, obsolete by now), because it's a screen shot from many moons ago.
    The important thing is to start the path in the ROOT LEVEL Library, not your username or home Library:

  • Cannot open DNG files via Bridge or Lightroom in Photoshop?

    I have a problem that has popped up since I installed the 5.6 RAW upgrade to my CS4/Lightroom 2.2 package.  Hopefully someone would be kind enough to help me diagnose it, as it affects only about 85,000 raw files currently in my Lightroom Catalogue. 
    The files were originally shot using a Canon professional camera in their proprietary RAW format, CR2. This conversion occurred upon input into Lightroom while at the same time the original CR2 files discarded (as I am not the son of a Hard Drive Manufacture!).  After the installation of the recent DNG/RAW converter upgrade I first noticed that the dng files would not display in Bridge even if I rebuild the cache, however, if I downloaded a Canon CR2 file they displayed without a problem.  This condition Bridge; Lightroom continued to display both types of RAW files correctly, however the dng file now had a small triangle with an explanation symbol inside it on the top right of the thumbnail preview indicating that “Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo, while there was no associated problem with the canon CR2 file.  The message 'You will not be able to make adjustments to this photo” was associated with the triangle icon.  Quite discerning, considering this has occurred to all 18,000 previously imported and rendered dng previews.
    I then tried to import the files into Camera RAW using the ‘right-click technique’ in Bridge on the dng file symbols representing the thumbnails that would be there if I did not have this problem.  When I right clicked and selected ‘Open in Camera Raw’ there is no response what so ever.  If I drag the dng symbol to the Photoshop desktop it results in the following error message “Could not complete your request because of a program error.”  Either way there is no getting the dng file into Photoshop.
    I have attempted the following fixes:
    1.       Clean reinstall of CS4 (saving preferences)
    2.       Clean update of Camera RAW 5.5
    Does anyone out there have any solutions, recommendations, work-around or suggestions for this situation?  Is it a problem with a conversion of the metadata? The file structure itself?  Can it be fixed? At this juncture I am out of Tums’s, that nasty tasting pink stuff in the bathroom and am headed for the pharmacy for something stronger.
    I would appreciate any help at all.

    I know it does help find a solution, but I have run across some older DNG's that will open in LR 2 but will not open in Bridge/CSR 4. (These are DNG's created by Scott Kelby for his LR 2 book - I have attached on to this post.)  I can open them first in LR and then tell LR to edit the image in Photoshop and it will open. I have not yet had the issue of LR not being able to open the DNG correctly. However, I may not have done a DNG conversion since I installed the 5.6 upgrade. When I get a chance I will go convert some CR2 files and see what happens.

    I have uploaded one of Kelby's dng's that will not open in my desktop nor laptop Bridge/CSR 4 w/all updates. DNG 5.6 is unable to process them as well. It will import into LR. Other than that I cannot cause DNG's not to load into Bridge/CSR.
    Opps the file is too big. You can download it from here. Kelby's Technical Copy Editor told me she did not have the same problem. Weird. I hope you solve your problem.

  • Photoshop CS4 and Nikon .NEF files

    I just downloaded Photoshop CS4 for a trial basis. I use 2 nikon cameras and 1 Canon and shot is RAW format. The RAW file extensions are .NEF and .CS2. I had the understanding Photoshop had no problem reading these file formats (through ACR). However, I am not able to access photos under the .nef format. How do I access files under .nef?
    Thanks

    It reads it fine and I believe CS 3 does as well.
    Perhpas there is a trial of Light room which users the same engine as ACR but has more organizing features. And the spotting tool works better.
    But I assure you that ACR reads nef what camera do you have? Is it a recent release?

  • Photoshop CS4 won't recognize file and won't save

    Help!  I have Photoshop CS4.  I have had trouble in the past with photoshop not recognizing my raw files from Nikon (NEF).  Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't.  Now I can't get PS to save any file, jpeg or ps.  Can anyone help me please?

    • What exact version of Ps CS4 are you using?  11.0.2?
    • Exact version of the OS?
    • You are not working over a network, are you?
    • Have you tried creating a fresh, new account and logging in as a different user?
    • Have you Repaired Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility?
    • Check the read and write permissions on the folder(s) and volume(s) to which you are attempting to save.
    This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
    If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
    See: 
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
      Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
         Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.   It should.
        Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
      If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
    When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

  • Photoshop CS4 not reading .CR2 files with Yosemite

    I just updated my computer to a new iMac with Yosemite.  I transferred the data using Time Machine.  I uninstalled and then reinstalled Photoshop CS4.  Now when I try to open my .CR2 camera files, I get an error message in Photoshop: "Could not complete this request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file."  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I have thousands of .CR2 files...

    In Photoshop, click Photoshop > About Plug-Ins > Camera Raw
    Which version of Camera Raw is shown?
    Try manually updating to 5.7

  • Lightroom opens Photoshop CS4 for edit but file doesn't open

    I have tried looking for this thread but have not found it... 447 threads are a lot to scan...
    When I try to edit a Lightroom 2.3 file in Photoshop CS4 Extended, Photoshop launches but the file does not open (same for all other edit options: layers, pano, etc.) and the follows box appears in Lightroom: "The file could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop CS4 could not be launched"...
    I have Windows XP Home Edition with SP3... over 3GB Ram... and all current Adobe updates...

    Ah, now in that case this is where you'll find everything that you need to know, including access to the download. http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4579
    Having said that, with a Mac doesn't Camera Raw install automatically from within CS4 by choosing Update from within the Help menu?
    Oh, and another thing. If you open CS4, go up to Help, from the drop-down choose About > Camera Raw. If it indicates 5.5 then the raw plug-in is already installed in the correct location. It won't show if it's not installed in the correct location.

  • Photoshop CS5 photomerge with dng files crashes

    hello and greetings from Finland,
    I have constant problems with photomerge tool when using dng files converted from Nikon´s nef files. Photomerge loads all pictures, normally 4-6, starts to align them etc. process seemst to be running just fine. Just before finished panorama picture should appear to screen, photoshop returns to default state. With original nef files, everything works just fine. This happens only with dng files. I´m using iMac (i5 processor with 12 GB RAM, cache for Photoshop in separate HD etc.)
    So far I have tried following tricks for this problem; several resets for Photoshop settings file and reboot after that. Uninstalled and reinstalled whole Ps twice. Used two different, formatted memory cards in camera (Nikon D700).
    After those, no help. Maybe second reinstall gave some relief for this, dng files worked fine couple of times, but now I have that same error again and I´m running out of ideas what to do next. And once again, I have this problem only with dng´s.
    Any similar experiences? Did you managed to get things work again? How?

    I don't mean to break your rocks, Chris, but try to keep some perspective...  A component of Photoshop exiting abnormally (and delivering no results) is a crash to any user who doesn't have a deep insight as to how it's implemented.  Maybe it's not as serious as a "whole Photoshop crash with loss of data", but it's not an unreasonable interpretation.
    "Not finishing" could be your internal definition of it, and I might even agree with your terminology if it just popped up a message saying "The price of tea in China has risen too high - Photomerge must exit", but just quitting without any message is a crash by any reasonable definition.
    Regardless of what Adobe may say, rillumarei, I personally have come to believe Camera Raw leaves some corruption of memory somewhere as I've found any editing session after a Camera Raw run seems a little more likely to fail than one where a PSD or other "normal" image format is opened (without Camera Raw).

  • Can Photoshop CS4 open a .CR2 file ext.?

    I recently had a photoshoot done. the images are on a .CR2 ext. I was advised that I would be able to open themup in Photoshop CS4 but it's not working.  Any advice???

    CR2 is a generic extension for all Canon raw files.
    They will open (indirectly) in CS4 using the ACR plug-in.
    You need to check the camera model and tell us – not all CR2 files are the same.

  • Photoshop CS4 auto flattening my files. Anyone else experienced this?

    Photoshop has started flattening my files, seemingly at random. Obviously I don't need to explain that this is killing my workflow and is an unacceptable bug! I am currently reconstructing a 300 + layer brochure file from scratch, which is a real blast.
    I have spent a while searching for other people who have experienced this / possible solutions, but have come up with nothing. So, has anyone else experienced this, and does anyone have any potential solutions?
    If it makes any difference, I have been running GridIron Flow. I didn't have these issues before installing the app. I have since uninstalled it.
    Thanks very much in advance,
    Fred

    Never work on an original.
    Sounds like you are converting your files from RGB to CMYK in the advanced dialog uncheck flatten image to preserve appearance

  • DNG files in Bridge???

    Ok, so I am new to CS6 but I am going crazy, can some one help please?!  So I downloaded all my files in dng format, but when I look at them in bridge, I have these super tiny images.  They don't get any bigger so it makes sorting through my images impossible.  I have to open each one individually in ACR (takes me forever to go through a whole shoot).  How do I fix this?  What will make them bigger or should I make them into some other format?  Any help would be super appreciated!

    If I do that it doesn't get any bigger just makes the window bigger, not the image
    If that is the case something is wrong with your set up. The slider bottom right  Yammer p pointed you to does alter the size of the thumbnails, not the panel itself.

  • Photoshop cs4 - convertir des dng en jepg automatiquement

    Bonsoir
    J'aimerai convertir de façon automatique des fichiers dng au format jepg.
