Problem Opening Canon 1100d Raw file with Lightroom2

I have dusted off an old copy off lightroom2 and installed the updates, but It wont import RAW from the 1100D, Jpeg no problem. Is lightroom2 too old? Should it work?
I get a message saying file not recognised or corrupt.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Aaron

Yes to your "Is it too old" question, I'm afraid. Raw support for that model was not introduced until Lightroom 3.4 (which you can no longer purchase). Your options are either to upgrade to LR5 (assuming your hardware and OS is capable), or download the latest version of Adobe's free stand-alone DNG Converter and use this to convert your Raws to DNG which your LR 2 should be able to read.

  • Can't open Canon 70D raw files with elements 12

    Can anyone advise me why elements 12 will not open my Canon 70D raw files?  When I have tried to update elements it tells me that there are no updates available. The Adobe Photoshop Camera Raw plugin is version 8.0.0.137

    The Canon 70D was first supported in Camera Raw 8.2.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    EOS 70D
    CS2
    8.2
    5.2
    Camera Raw 8.5 should be available for Elements 12 via Help > Updates
    Photoshop elements 12 and camera raw 8.5
    If you have windows XP, Vista or Mac OS X 10.6.8 you won't get the camera raw 8.5 update, because it doesn't work on those operating systems.
    In that case you should be able to update to Camera Raw 8.3

  • How to open Canon 70D Raw files with PSE12? [was:HB]

    I have Elements 12 and a Canon 70D but cannot access my raw files - what to do?

    Run Help> Updates. This will install the 8.4 plug-in necessary to open 70D files (first supported in v8.2). This will require W7 or later, XP or Vista won't update to 8.4.

  • Problem opening up a RAW file with CS2

    I just bought an Olympus E30 camera and shot in RAW. When I uploaded to my computer I was able to open them up with the Olympus editing program but when I try to open in CS2 it gives me an error message that it doesn't recognize the file. File example: _C181661.ORF

    In order for photoshop cs2 to open the E30 files you need to use the 6.6 DNG Converter to convert your files to dng copies and then cs2 should be able to open them.

    Also the newest camera raw plugin for cs2 is 3.7

    I'm using windows XP and Lightroon 2.7, and am having problems opening Canons 6D RAW files, I can use CS6 but I like LR better.

    You need LR4 to open file from 6D. And LR4 doesn't run under win XP.

  • I am unable to open canon 6d raw files w/ elements 11

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

  • Can't open canon g16 raw files.  I have updated to Adobe camera raw 8.2 and am working with PS CS6.

    Here is my issue, I can't open the Raw files from my new Canon G16.  I have run all the Photoshop updates and even installed the Camera raw 8.2 update but still cannot open my raw files.  The will open in Canons digital photo professional program so I know they are not broken files.  I have even installed the DNG converter and they will not even open with that.  What am I doing wrong?  I bought this camera specifically for the ability to shoot in raw.  My canon 60d raw files work fine.

    Why on Earth did you upgrade only to ACR 8.2 ?
    The current version of ACR is ACR 8.4.  You should ALWAYS update to the latest version.  Once a camera model is supported, it will be supported in all subsequent releases of ACR.
    Beside new camera support, each ACR update contains any number of unannounced, unheralded bug fixes, improvements and enhancements.
    What is the exact version of your OS and of your Photoshop CS6? For instance, if you're on a Mac, you should be running Photoshop CS6 13.0.6.  I can't remember offhand what the latest version for CS6 is.
    Did you install ACR correctly.  ACR 8.2 should work for your camera (but update ACR anyway).  What version shows up when yo go to About Plug-in… > Camera Raw.
    You of course need to relaunch Photoshop, maybe even reboot your machine, and then Purge the Cache in Bridge.

  • Problem opening Canon 6D RAW even after upgrade today to PS CS6, WinXP-SP3

    Givens: PS CS5>CS6 upgrade via $199USD download today, Non-CC upgrade. OS: WinXP SP3, camera: Canon 6D RAW (.CR2 files) and prefer to work on RAWs via Bridge.
    Main goal: view Canon 6D files in Bridge, do adjustments, open via ACR into PS CS6 for further work.
    My fav workflow for photos is: Bridge>ACR>PS. Just got a Canon 6D camera. So I updated to PS CS6 today and I did go through PS CS6 menu: help>update mechanism for all available updates, which was one round of ACR (and Bridge) updates, no more were offered. That brought ACR from v7.0.0.308 to v7.1.0.354--still could not see Canon 6D RAW files.  I went to Adobe.com and did manual download for ACR/DNG 7_3 but it did not enable Bridge to see my new camera files nor could I open the 6D .CR2 files in PS. Got PS error message about not recognizing filetype, update ACR, etc (which of course I just attempted). (Seems as through PS and Bridge did not know the ACR/DNG 7.3 "existed" IF that is a capability).
    Then I tried to install ACR 8.7 from the "Fix your 6D RAW problems page" and got error messages in PS CS6 (perhaps bc I am on 32-bit system). Decided to start from scratch; uninstalled PS CS6 upgrade.
    Secondary issue is: Now I have uninstalled PS CS6 and done System Restore to the point just after I downloaded PS CS6 upgrade. I want to reinstall but the installer fails. Support chat told me to download PS CS6 Upgrade again (doing that now), then reinstall.
    Solve: Main problem: Be able to work on Canon 6D RAW through Bridge and ACR (prefer NOT to workaround with DNG if possible) At time of writing, as mentioned, I am downloading PS CS6 upgrade again, then plan to reinstall. If that works, then I need steps to update ACR so that I can work on 6D RAWs through Bridge and ACR. Please know that going through Photoshop's Help>Update mechanism does NOT seem to work. Do I need manual updates? If so, please direct me to the correct ones and order of procedure to execute this upgrade successfully.
    Many thanks, Paul

    Yammer, thanks for the info about Camera Raw 8.3--that is my goal to load PS CS6 Upgrade and update to Camera Raw 8.3  Currently, I am having problems installing PS CS6 upgrade after uninstall. I have used Adobe CC Cleaner several times. It seemed to help, and the installer proceeded further with next try. Then I looked and there was no PS CS6 icons. I have done system restore also several times and am about to try again. It seems that my original PS CS6 upgrade installed, but when I tried to load ACR update, problems arose. Is there a way to remove recent version Camera Raw remnants from my computer. There is no Photoshop CS6 folder and further none for the CameraRaw.8bi for PS CS6. One possible clue: Yesterday I did two upgrades: 1) PS CS4>CS5 via box, then 2) PS CS5.CS6 on-line download non-CC. In one round of update, I saw that PS CS*5* Extension Manager failed to update. Seems unrelated but mentioned here for thoroughness.
    Running ACR 8.3 in XP SP3 would be most useful and timely today as I have work to do. Many thanks, Paul

  • How to open canon 70D RAW files in Lightroom 4?

    I have udated LR 4 to LR 4.4. It is supposed to open the newer Canon camera RAW files like the 70D. After updating with the download from Adobe LR ver. 4 will still not open the 70D RAW files. Does anyone have any suggestion? I must be doing something incorrect or am missing a step to the update. Thanks!

    Not so, 70D support was added in Lightroom 5.2 ... Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    You have a choice to upgrade to Lightroom 5.6 or use the DNG convertor to convert the CR2 files to DNG and import.

  • Cannot open Canon .CR2 raw files

    I just purchased PSE 7 and I cannot open a raw file with the .CR2 extension produced by my Canon 500D. I have installed all available updates to PSE 7. Is there a way to open a raw file produced by my Canon 500D? Thanks.

    You'll need to update manually the Adobe Camera Raw plugin:

  • Opening Canon T4i RAW files in PSE10

    Hello everyone
    I recently traded in my Canon T3i for a T4i, and now PS Elements 10 won't open the CR2 RAW files from this camera.   According to "Help - Plug In" I have V 6.7, so I went to the Adobe site which said I needed V 7.1, which I download, and extracted, but it won't install it in the software; when I click on the extracted AdobePatchInstaller application, I get a message stating  "Update Failed" and "this patch is not applicable for you".   Also, when I click "Help-Updates" it tells me everything is up to date.  What can I do?
    Scutty
    Message title was edited by: Brett N

    Some jokingly call it the Adobe Tax.  If you buy a recently released camera, the specifications for RAW files are probably different than previous models.  Adobe takes those specs, camera by camera, and adds thme to ACR.  Adobe does not make current new versions of ACR available to legacy software.  Hence the "tax".  You wrote that your newly released camera is in 7.1.  To use ACR 7.1 conveniently ("natively"?) you have to have the versions of Adobe's tools that use the 7.x series.  That would be Photoshop Elements 11, Premier Elements 11 and Lightroom 4.x
    It was my turn to learn the lessons of the Adobe Tax for a Sony RX100 I bought last year!
    Adobe is not entirely rude about this!  They give away the "Adobe DNG Converter" that is updated in parallel with ACR.  You can, with out paying a cent, download the converter and it will make Elements 10 compatable .DNG files from your CR2 files.
    Good luck!

  • Horrible Adobe Chat Experience - How to open Canon 6D Raw files in CS5?

    Hi, I just had an awful Adobe Chat experience with agent Dharma. I waited a very long time and when Mr. Dharma finally was able to help me, he wasn't able to. I was told that my product would no longer be supported and I couldn't be helped by Adobe because it was CS5. I was also sent to a faulty link. Anyway, I recently purchased a Canon EOS 6D and when I tried uploading my photos to Photoshop CS5 it said my RAW photos could not be supported. I followed the appropriate links for support and help.
    My CS5 is updated, the Adobe Bride is updated. The extension for the photos is CR2 and they will not show the thumbnails in bridge and won't load in Photoshop. I need help. Now, I am hoping Adobe will support it's product and customer.

    As each new camera comes out, Adobe have to write the code that enables Camera RAW to work with its RAW files.  It is nrealistic to expect them to keep doing this for all previous versions of Photoshop.  The Canon 6D needs ACR7.3 which Photoshop CS6
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    You have several alternatives. 
    As an owner of CS5 you can take up the BUndle deal at $10 a month.
    You can download the free DNG conversion software, and convert your CR2 files to DNG which CS5 can read.
    You can buy Lightroom 5, oir even Lightroom 4 (if you can still find a copy)
    I'd go with the Bundle deal.  There is a lot more to CC than reading Canon 6D RAW files.

  • CAN NOT OPEN  CANON EOS20D  RAW FILE IN PHOTOSHOP CS2

    I had Photoshop CS2 installed on my PC some years ago and could open my raw files from my canon eos 20d. I changed the hard drives in my pc to solid state drives and had to reinstall photoshop cs2. I could not activate photoshop as it was too old a version so I had to download from adobe website with their activation code. Now, I can not open any of my canon eos 20d files. I have taken some now photos just a few days ago and the problem still arises. I get the message that it does not recognise this type of file. Any ideas?
