Problem Opening RAW files

I have Photshop CS6 Extended but when I click on the .cr2 which is the RAW file I keep getting an error message "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document"
Any suggestions?
I have tried installing the camera raw plugin
Photoshop Camera Raw 7.1
Installation failed. Error Code: U44M2P7

You don't say what camera. I assume it's a new one that Camera Raw needs an update to recognize.
If Help - Updates fails to update Camera Raw, among all the other components, visit the appropriate link below and do a manual installation...

Problem opening Raw Files In PS Elements 10

Hi I just installed PS Elements 10 on a new laptop, I can not open my Raw files, no problem with the jpegs but can not open Raw, I use this software on my old laptop and desk top with no problem, Windows 7 is on all 3 computers, What do I need to do to fix this and be able to open the Raw. Also note I notice that I have a blue check mark on my jpeg files and I have a Red X on my Raw files which I never had on my other two computers.

You might try downloading the 6.7 update from here and installing that:

If that fails, what does the error message say?
(there should be some numbers in the failed message that represent an error code)

Problem opening RAW files in Elements 11

I have installed Photoshop Elements 11. When I try to open .NEF raw files they do not show in the File-Open dialog box. NEF is not shown as a option in the filetype drop down in File-Open.
I am running Windows XP SP3.
Is there something wrong with the installation or does it need a plugin?

OK, Adobe spent most of the day trying to fix this problem, and didn't. PSE11 was reinstalled and patches which weren't relevent were installed and failed. Although my PC meets all the spec for Photoshop Elements 11, it just will not show Camera Raw under Help....plug-ins, or show NEF files in File....Open, or the Camera Raw file extensions in the File ...Open...File Types. The guy gave up but didn't tell me that he would escalate although I tried to suggest it.
So, no Camera Raw for me I'm afraid nless I use my ancient slow laptop.
Does anyone have an email address for escalations n Adobe ?
Thanks for your help guys.

Problems opening Raw files in Photoshop 7

Hi there,
Just got Photoshop 7 a week ago and started working on my Raw files. But i am not able to open them up in Photoshop When trying to "open as" and select the raw file another window pops up asking me for headers and dimensions, etc..
All i get is a picture of some kind of grey texture??
Cheers

This is a Lightroom forum. Do you have LR, because that will open virtually any RAW file.

Problems opening raw files in pse 8, using a canon 7D

Hi I am having trouble opening cr2 files in pse 8 using a canon 7D, it keeps giving me a error msg, "saying it can't read file" it open them fine from my 1000D same format etc. Has anyone got a solution?
Tahnks R.

Most likely you need to update your camera raw plugin to version 6.2
windows:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4807
mac (6.2 only works in the elements editor and not bridge, 5.7 for bridge)

Newbie with problems opening RAW files.

I am new to using RAW files. I started by following the instructions to download and install the new RAW plug-in for my CS2 version of photoshop. When I open CS2 and choose bridge, I can see the thumbnail of the NEF file, but when I right click to open, there is no option for me to open as RAW file. If I double left click to open it tells me it cannot open because it is the wrong type of file.
Photoshop CS2 Ver 9.0
Raw Plug-in Ver 3.7
Camera Nikon D5000

Unfortunately, ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) 3.7 doesn't support RAW files from Nikon D5000.
Support for Nikon D5000 RAW was added in ACR 5.4. But, again, sorry to say you cannot install ACR5.4 for Photoshop CS2.
Your best bet is to try a DNG converter that you can find in your Nikon Camera Applications CD and convert your pictures.
You can also download ViewNX from here: http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Imaging-Software/NVNX/ViewNX.html#tab-Pr oductDetail-ProductTabs-Overview

Why cant I open raw files in photoshop CS6

I just downloaded photoshop but cant open raw files in CS6 with my nikon D600

You may want to check out this thread, which deals with problems opening RAW files from a D600.

Hi, I need some help. Since I have changed to windows 7 I cannot open raw files with my canon mk 5D. The files will not open in cs4. Can somebody advise me what to do. I have done updates on CS4 and still cannot open the raw files

Can anybody advise me what to do as I am having problems opening raw files on CS4 since I have changed to windows 7. I am using a canon mk 5D.

Actually, you're not. That's not an accurate description of any of the Canon 5D models.
There are EOS 5D, EOS 5D Mark II, and EOS 5D Mark III models. Which do you have, specifically? Details will matter for this.
If you have a 5D Mark III (three) it's too new and you will not be able to directly open files with Photoshop CS4. You'll either need a newer version of Photoshop or to use the free DNG converter.

Aperture wont open raw files from my panasonic fz18

Hi Everyone, I have been using aperture 3 for about a year and have no problems opening raw files from my nikon camera but I thought I would use my old panasonic FZ18 when I go kayaking just in case the camera gets wet. To my surprise when I downloaded my raw files into Aperture from my FZ18 they would not open. Is there a codec or program update that will enable Aperture to open my raw files.
Thanks Colin

The FZ18, FZ35 and later are not supported by Apple RAW processing mostly due to the exotic barrel distortion correction that needs to be applied for wide angle shots. Even Adobe DNG converter will not convert the .RW2 files to DNG unless you use dngsanitize to remove the lens correction metadata. You can then bring the DNG files into Aperture.

Hi, I have a version of CS4 on my Mac. I can not longer open Raw files with it from my Canon 5D. I never had problems with it in the past. What can I do?

CS5 crashes when trying to open RAW files. Help?

Hi!
I recently had to reinstall CS5.1 on my mac (OSX 10.9.5) after formatting the hard drive and for some reason I'm no longer able to open RAW-files, neither in photoshop nor bridge. I have tried to remove and reinstall CS5, update my mac and camera raw, but nothing seams to help. I read somewhere else on the forum that it could help to delete the Camera Raw folder in the library, but that didn't help either. Any tips to what might be wrong?

beltal wrote:
The newest update for CS5 I could find is 12.0.4, while the version that was installed is 12.1. So I guess re-installing gave me the newest version and not the original? I have tried installing Camera Raw 6.7 both using the updater in photoshop and downloading it manually from adobe, but it makes no difference.
I've never known any Adobe download of a whole application to install a newer version than the original. You must have updated it yourself somehow, or you did not use the Adobe-provided Uninstaller to uninstall it in the first place. Never just "delete" an application; always use the Uninstaller.
By "deleting the ACR plug-in" do you mean the Camera Raw folder in the library? In that case, it was recreated when I deleted and reinstalled the software again, so it should not be any problem. I just gave it a try since it worked for someone else with the same problem: Can't open RAW .NEF images in Photoshop CS5
"Deleting" as opposed to uninstalling was my first worry; but no, I wasn't referencing any Folder, but the plug-in itself.
Note that in the correct path to the Camera Raw plug-in there is no such thing as a "Camera Raw folder". There is a Camera Raw folder in a different path inside the root-level Library, but that one has absolutely nothing to do with the ACR plug-in nor with anything else we have been discussing here. That latter "Camera Raw Folder" does not contain the plug-in; it contains only Adobe Patch Files, CameraProfiles and LensProfiles folders. Don't mess with that one.

Can't open RAW files in CS4

I recently bought the 5d mk2 and I cannot open RAW files. Had no problem with my 20D but 5D does not work. Tried to put new plug in into the plugin folder but it says that it is not recognised by windows or there is an error in it. Anyone help?

The only other thing I can think of is that when you installed 5.7 you put the older version in a location where it should not have been. If you are keeping an older copy it cannot be anywhere in the Adobe folder structure. It's best to just get rid of it completely. You can always download another copy if necessary. I know, this is a dumb question, but are you certain you are using Photoshop CS4?

Not able to open raw files from my CAnon 5D mark III in PS CS6!

I have camera raw 8.6 installed and am running photoshop cs 6.0. All of a suddened photoshop will not open raw pictures that were shot on a CAnon 5D mark III. Any ideas on what could be the problem. The pictures do open in light room.
Thanks
Bruce

What exactly happens when you try to open raw files from Canon 5D Mark III in PS CS6. Do you get any error message? An error screenshot would help.
Make sure your PS CS6 is up-to-date from Help > Updates.
Restart the machine and retry.
