Photoshop Elements 12 Cannot Read Sony A7Mk2 ARW File

Hello,
My Photoshop Elements 12 (v12.1) program cannot read raw riles from a Sony A7Mk2 ILCE-7M2.  I have updated to the latest Adobe Camera Raw Plug-In (8.5.0.236) which purportedly supports this camera's raw files but it does not.
The error received is "Could not complete you request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw."
I tried all the troubleshooting steps on Adobe's help pages including uninstalling and reinstalling the Adobe software.
One possible reason for the problem:  On the page listing supported cameras, Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras, the A7Mk2 appears to be listed as "Sony ILCE-A7M2" which appears to be a mistake as the correct model is "Sony ILCE-7M2" (i.e. no "A").
Very frustrating given that I bought Elements for this specific purpose!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Given the amount of pictures I take, converting to DNG isn't really an viable option.

I believe the said Sony A7Mk2 ILCE-7M2 (adobe calls it Sony ILCE-A7M2)  needs at least camera raw 8.7.1, so you can either use the 8.8 adobe dng converter or upgrade to pse 13, which would open those files directly without the need of the dng converter.
(you would need to to use Help>Updates in the pse 13 editor to get the camera raw 8.7.1 plugin)

  • Having installed an upgrade for Photoshop Elements 13, I cannot open the application. I get an error message saying "Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Photoshop Elements Edit

    Having installed an upgrade for Photoshop Elements 13, I cannot open the application. I get an error message saying "Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X".
    I have since uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but get the same error message.

    Which version of OS X do you have? It's not clear from your post whether "installed an upgrade" means you just installed PSE 13 as an upgrade or you installed an update to PSE 13, like ACR 9 or 13.1. Please clarify.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 cannot find Qtcore4.dll

    Photoshop Elements 11 cannot find Qtcore4.dll. I have removed the program and re-installed twice and have run sfc/scannow. I still get the error on starting the program. A web search does not give any definite answers

    Several people have reported this and it’s difficult to pin down. But is the application working OK. If so, the error message is best ignored even though I know it can get annoying.

  • Changing default from Adobe photoshop elements to Adobe reader

    I use both Adobe Photoshop elements and Adobe Reader 8. Whenever I open a PDF document it defaults to Adobe Photoshop Elements. How do I get it to default to Adobe Reader 8? Thanks.

    If you problem is that, when you double click on the icon of a PDF file, it is opened by Photoshop Elements and not by Reader, you have a file associations problem. See this FAQ:

    And what does any of that have to do with Adobe software? You better check your hardware setup and install the proper driver for whatever card reader you use...

    Photoshop Elements 12 will not let me save files edited on a usb flash drive, but will photos on the hard drive all other apts will on the flash drive

    Thanks for the information and your help. I have never bothered before changing the format. Next time I will.
    I copied the library to the external drive and then it went and said they were referenced files but I was okay about that. Now it cannot see them and will not do anything with them. I think I will buy another external drive and start again by importing all of my files again. I guess 55K will keep the mac busy this week.

  • Sony A77 ARW files in LR 5.2 do not show...

    Hi there,
    some time ago I was "suddenly"troubled that my Sony A77 Arw files dit not show up in Lr 3 no more. I recently upgraded to 5.2 but same problem...
    On the same laptop they do show up in PSE 12 strangely enough.
    Maybe I overlook something but any help/suggestion is welcome as I am truly stuck. Thanks!

    Hi thanks for replying.
    I am using the most recent version of LR on a dell lattitute W7.
    I import the files and convert them directly into DNG.
    When in the library it shows meta details like in the screenshot below. But the actual immage is not shown. This counts for the ARW files but also Jpeg or Tiff files. As said before the image is shown in PSelements-12 and also in Sony sw itself(PMB) I am  afraid I overlook something simple but I cannot get my fingers behind it. Thanks for any help!

    I am using Photoshop Elements 11.  Do all .jpg formatted file have to be retangular in shape?  I want to create an oval .jpg picture to insert into a book.  Haven't been able to do so.  It would work if I could make the area outside the oval completely transparent.  Can anyone help me here?

    JPG does not support transparency, so even if you create an oval with transparent background, the saved JPG will have white background. Instead, save it as a PNG, TIFF, or GIF which preserve the transparency.
    Here is one of many ways to create your oval:
    Create a new file the approximate size of the oval. Add the oval with the Custom Shape Ellipse tool, and simplify the shape layer.
    In the Layers Palette, Ctrl-click the oval to select it and copy the selection to the clipboard (Edit > Copy).
    Then do File > New from Clipboard. This creates the oval with transparent background cropped to the oval size.
    Then save it as one of the file types that support transparency (and also supported by the application where you are sending the picture to).
    Note:  Is is not even necessary to do step 2. That is only if some reason you want the oval to be tightly cropped. It is sufficient to delete the Background layer in step 1 (or turn off its visibility) and save the file. The oval will appear correctly in the book with either version.

  • Import Sony RAW .arw files not automatic

    I decided to take the plunge yesterday I downloaded the trial LR2 (now 2.1) and purchased Kelby's Lightroom 2 book. All my catalog from PSE6 imported without a hitch. That's over 12000 photos with about half of them Minolta (.mrw) and Sony RAW (.arw) files. Then I decided to import the shots I had just taken from a weekend photoshoot. I plugged in my CF into the card reader and started LR. When I clicked on the IMPORT button for my CF location all I got was the message "NO PHOTOS WERE FOUND TO IMPORT". I can import the files using the manual CHOOSE FILE option but I want it to work just like PSE with auto import. From what I understand that should be the case. After a Google search I found importing Sony RAW images (.arw) was an issue in LR1, but shouldn't Aobe have fixed it by now?? Just as an aside, if I'm having this issue with .arw files, when I import the RAW images from my Minolta 7Hi I wonder if I'll have the same issue.
    Since its a trail version I'm not eligible for Adobe support, so there is no help coming from there.

    This is a known bug!<br /><br />Import the files trough "Import Photos from disk", thats easy en works fine <br />for me!<br /><br /><br /><[email protected]> schreef in bericht <br />news:[email protected]..<br />>I decided to take the plunge yesterday I downloaded the trial LR2 (now 2.1) <br />>and purchased Kelby's Lightroom 2 book.

  • Had my Nikon D600 recently in for the updated service call. Camera works fine but Photoshop says it cannot open my RAW (NEF) files now? It worked fine before and I have done all my updates.

    Had my Nikon D600 recently in for the updated service call. Camera works fine but Photoshop says it cannot open my RAW (NEF) files now? It worked fine before and I have done all my updates.

    The only thing I can think of is if you got a replacement D610 as rumored here:
    http://nikonrumors.com/2014/01/27/nikon-is-replacing-some-d600-cameras-with-new-d610-model s.aspx/
    In that case, you would need the new version of Camera RAW or DNG converter as per Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras .
    The other thing to check is if the files open in the Nikon native ViewNX software. If they don't it's time to call the service center.

  • Cannot read from the source file or disk

    I had to get a new hard drive for my Satellite A665 old one kept freezing up; had a recovey disk from Geek Squad when I got it but they did not work.  So I ordered a Recovery Disc set from Toshiba. 
    A few minutes after I insert the 3nd disc, I get the following message:

    An error has occurred.

    I tried erasing the disk, then running the Recovery Wizard again, but wind up in the same place.

    It's hard to know exactly what the problem is. You might want to contact customer support because it could just be a faulty disc.

  • Photoshop CS won't read 5.2 DNG files

    I recently had a student use the stand alone DNG converter V.5.2 on his Canon 5D Mark II raw files but Photoshop CS won't read the resultant .dng files. Our copy of CS3 reads them ok but he only has CS and neither his version of CS nor ours will read the files. My understanding has been that .dng files can be read by any version of Photoshop that works with Raw files. Is this no longer true? Or was it never true? Thanks.
    -dave-

    Hi Thomas,
    Installing 2.4 took care of the problem. Boy, does the CS version of Camera Raw seem crude compared to the full featured version you've given us now. I remember it as being pretty impressive at the time but I sure wouldn't want to have to go back to it. I think I've convinced the student how much he's missing out on by not having CS4 but at least he'll be able to work with his Raw files until he upgrades. Thanks for your help.

  • I cannot read Nikon D600 raw files with CS5

    I cannot read Nikon D600 raw files with CS5, I have tried Camera Raw 6.1 update but that has not worked.

    Nikon D 600 will work with ACR 7.3 which needs minimum of PS CS 6  : http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    With PS CS 5, ACR 7.3 will not work.
    So either you need to upgrade to CS 6 or use DNG converter to convert images to DNG format which you can open in CS 5

  • Cannot read Cannon S100 RAW files on Aperture

    Aperture cannot read canon S100 RAW files even after the latest update. Cannot install old updates once the latest is installed.
    Should i try to reinstall Aperture and download the specific update for the Canon S100? or does the latest update include old ones?
    Thanks,

    Not sure now the link I posted got changed but here OS X Mavericks: Supported digital camera RAW formats is the correct link.
    If you are running the latest software (BTW what version of Aperture are you running?) and still cannot see the raw files from your S100 try opening them in Preview and see if they work there.  If they do not work in Preview also then as was written above you probably need to change the settings on the camera.
