Problem with nef files from my d5100 using cs4

I have cs4 I also have a nikon d40 and I just bought a Nikoin D5100 I cannot see the nef pictures using bridge cs4 how do I fix?

The DNG conversion in Bridge will only convert files that your version of Camera Raw already supports. You will need the latest version of the freestanding DNG converter program which is free and available from Adobe. I'm going to assume that you are Windows user. Here is the link to the Windows version of the program:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106&platform=Windows
You need to download the program and install it and run the program. It is not a plug-in, and it is not part of Photoshop, Bridge, or Lightroom.
Just one word of advice. When you start the DNG converter you will be prompted to choose a FOLDER containing raw files. Be sure to just choose the folder, but don't open it. If you open the folder the DNG converter will tell you that there are no compatible files. If you want to convert just a single file, drag/drop that file onto the icon for the DNG converter. The program will start, and the conversion will take place.
Incidentally, I am 70 years old, and on the verge of retirement myself. I understand your situation completely. If you have any further questions about how to use the DNG converter, or whatever, feel free to ask. There are a bunch of very helpful people here who can get you through just about any problem.

Problem with NEF files from Nikon D4

Hi everyone. I find a problem with nef files from my Nikon D4. When files are open in ViewNX2 (free viewer software from Nikon) they are perfect, as shooted... but in ACR they are very different... I use LR4 or CS5 with ACR 6.7 and the difference seems to be linked at D-Lighting function. My impression is that ACR dont read this option and picture are very very dark that original shootings. Anyone have this problem?

This question used to be answered in the FAQ before they revised it. So, here we go again. ViewNX is capable of reading all of the in-camera settings such as, camera profile, saturation, sharpness and other settings. It is capable of doing this because it is Nikon Software, and they have the ability to program it to read the settings from their raw images. Lightroom does not read those settings from Nikon cameras or any other brand of camera. Part of the reason is that different camera makers store those settings differently.
When I first started using Lightroom I adjusted one of my images that represented what I normally shoot until it looked the way I wanted it. Then I saved those adjustments as my default settings for the camera. From that point onward, whenever I import images those settings are automatically applied, and it takes care of the vast majority of my images. Of course, I still have to make individual adjustments. But my default settings greatly reduce the amount of how they work that I have to do.
Active D-lighting is is one of those features that Lightroom does not recognize. You would be well advised not to use it, or else create a preset to simulate its effect. It will provide no benefit to your Lightroom work.
This is a fundamental difference with Lightroom, and something that must be understood and implemented if you are going to use the program effectively.
I realize this question was asked in the ACR forum and I referenced Lightroom throughout. But the principle is the same, and the recommended procedure is the same.

I just stared having problems with importing files from nikon D810 into LR 5.7 it pop a window saying it can not read files on working on a imac 27" running yosemite on my mac pro after a few times it finally was able to read files and import them into LR

I just stared having problems with importing files from nikon D810 into LR 5.7 it pop a window saying it can not read files on working on a imac 27" running yosemite on my mac pro after a few times it finally was able to read files and import them into LR I never had this problem before was there some kind of update that could of cause this?

Can't open NEF files from Nikon D90 in CS4.

I had to uninstall and reinstall PS CS4, now I am unable to open my NEF files. I've used CS4 for years and always been able to open NEF files. Any idea what is going on? Any suggestion? I'm computer illiterate so please keep any answers as simple as possible. Thanks

and CS4 is compatible with Camera Raw up to version 5.7

Preview problem with NEF files in Lightroom 3.3 from d7000

Lightroom 3.3 (with XP) states in import screen for NEF files from my d7000 "Preview unavailable for this file", and "could not read preview" when I double click on image to bring it to full-field view. Any hints? Thanks.

Lightroom 4.4 won't recognize NEF files from my D5100

I've been using Lightroom 4 for over a year now to process NEF files straight from my memory card. For some reason, LR has stopped recognizing my NEF files. The only change was that I upgraded to 4.4 recently. Has anyone else experienced this? I did find a free adobe program that converts NEF to DNG files, but it's an extra step I don't want to have to mess around with if I don't have to.

LR 4.4 recognizes more cameras than the prior versions and doesn’t forget them.
Either you’re not using LR 4.4 like you think you are—this would be pretty obvious so I assume you are, or the files are being corrupted or otherwise changed so they’re no longer recognized.
The most common thing that causes NEFs to be unrecognized is using an older version of Nikon Transfer V1 or ViewNX which doesn’t know how to handle the header information in newer model cameras.
If you aren’t using an older version of Nikon programs with your NEFs, and instead using LR to copy the files from your camera memory card to the computer, then it is possible that LR 4.4 is using the USB functions of your computer differently than previous versions of LR and something with your USB system (cables, drivers) is iffy and that is causing corruption of the files. It could also be a bad card that is being transferred from faster than before and this is causing issues.
The way to test for LR-copying cause the problem is to use some other method to move files from the memory card to your computer, a card reader being most common, and see if the files are recognized, then.

Problem with downloading file from FTP server

Hello all
I have uploaded a file from an application i developed and i want to download this file from another application. The code is
public static void FTPcon() throws FtpException{
   String hostname = "my.ftp.server";
   String username = "myusername";
   String password = "mypass";
   Ftp ftp = new Ftp(hostname,username,password);
   ftp.setHostname(hostname);
        ftp.setUsername(username);
        ftp.setPassword(password);
        ftp.connect();
        ftp.setBinary();
        ftp.download("file.dat");
        ftp.disconnect();
}The error i receive is java.io.FileNotFoundException: public.dat (The system cannot find the file specified) but the file is on the server.
Thanks in advance for any help

Cotton thank you for your reply
Any other sugestions please?The server disagrees. So...
- the file does not existThe file exists.I checked it with an FTP client program.
- the file has a different nameThe file name is correct
- you are connected to the wrong serverI am connecting to the correct server
- you are in the wrong ftp directoryThe file is placed in the home directory
- the ftp library you are using is broken (less
likely)I am using the library from jscape.I dont think is broken because i can upload the file from the first application.
>
FTP isn't somehow broken in Java. I use it all the
time. The problem is something listed above. I would
check all of the first four if I were you because
that's most likely where the problem is.Message was edited by:

Problems with RAW files from Nikon D4

At the moment I'm using LR 4.1 rc and PS CS 6 beta. I tried to send a D4 raw file from LR to PS, but PS didn't open it.
The next thing I tried was to open D4 raws directly with PS CS 6, no success either.
The raw files from my D200 aren't any problem.
So is there knowledge wether PS CS 6 is supporting Nikon D4 RAWs or not? If it should be supported, what could be my problem?
Thx in advance
Dominik

See this link for full details on camera support in Camera Raw versions:
http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2012/03/raw-support-in-lightroom-and-camera-raw.ht ml
Snip taken from link above:
You’ll also note that ACR7, available with Photoshop CS6 beta, is lagging the most in updated camera support. This is based on when we lock down or “bake” the code for each release. Even though ACR7 was only released last week it was “baked” before Lightroom 4.0 and Camera Raw 6.7. Similarly, Lightroom 4.0 was finalized before Camera Raw 6.7. We’ll get Lightroom and Camera Raw in sync soon but in the interim, here’s the latest incremental support list for each product, relative to Camera Raw 6.6 and Lightroom 3.6:
Photoshop CS6 beta with ACR7
Canon PowerShot S100V
Fuji FinePix X-S1
NOTE:
ACR7.1 will have the superset of all currently supported cameras in ACR6.7 and LR4.1 plus a few extras.

Problems with NEF files in Camera Raw 5.3

I have problem with my NEF files in CR. I import them from my harddrive, they open as 8 bit NEF files, but in CR, the only option I have is a depth, no space, resolution or size option where it should be, under the image. I also can't click on the info line under the image to change depth, space etc.
I have the option to change depth from 8 to 16 bit, but when I do that, I can't work on the image in Elements because a dialogubox says its not adequate size (or something along those lines).It is almost as if there is either not enough information on my files, or that CR 5.3 can't read them. I have a Nikon d60 so that should be OK with the software. I also download my images with a cardreader so they should still be RAW files.
If someone could help me I would be grateful, it's doing my head in!!!

…but in CR, the only option I have is a depth, no space, resolution or size option where it should be, under the image. I also can't click on the info line under the image to change depth, space etc. I have the option to change depth from 8 to 16 bit…
In ACR with PSE, under the image you have just two options, changing the zoom and changing the depth (bits per channel):
Why do you expect anything more?
I can't work on the image in Elements because a dialoge box says it’s not adequate size (or something along those lines).
What is the precise error message? PSE 6 or 7, Windows or Mac?

Problem with reading files from folders - please help

Hi!
I have 2 folders (folder1 and folder2) on 2 different locations. Now i will say few things about my program.
First folder is input folder. Different applications generate XML files and put them inside folder1.
Then i have my application which i use to manipulate with those folders. Basically, i have 2 threads. One is checking if there are files in folder1 and other thread is moving manipulated files from folder1 to folder2.
I face this problem. XML files are much faster generated then manipulated. Example: for every 3 incoming files into folder1 i have 1 manipulated and stored file into folder2. This way i face problem that some older files are never manipulated, they are stuck in folder1 basically forever.
Could someone help me to solve this problem? I do not know how to select files form folder1 ordered by "date modified time".
Tnx for your time and help!

Do not crosspost! I'll lock this thread.

Problem with JPEG files from Leica M and GPS data

It seems there's a serious bug in Camera Raw 8, hosted in Bridge CS6 on an MS Windows machine, with regard to GPS metadata.
When using a Leica M (Typ 240) with a multi-function handgrip then both the DNG files (DNG is Leica's native raw format) and the JPEG files out of the camera will include GPS position data in the respective EXIF metadata sections. However, Bridge refuses to display the JPEG files' GPS data (while there's no problem with the GPS data in the DNG files). Worse yet—when loading a JPEG file in Camera Raw for some parametric adjustments and saving the file then the GPS data will be entirely gone! (Again, no problems with the DNG files' GPS data.)
I suppose that Camera Raw 8 hosted in Bridge CC as well as Lightroom 5 are suffering from the same issue.

Nobody? Absolutely nobody?? Zalman? Eric? Anyone?
If you need more input from me then please talk to me.

Reoccuring HANGING problem with transferring files from old MACBOOK

ok, so I recently bought a iMac and i wanted to transfer my music and photo files from my older (waterdamaged a while back but still works fine) macbook. I've tried basically every method to try and get this done.
I've tried migration assistant, transferring the files through a shared wireless network, through firewire/disk target mode, but all of those methods i tried resulted in hanging very early on in the transferring and copying operation.
I believe it must have something to do with my macbook's hard drive, but i have no idea what to do at this point. Could someone please help me?

the thing is tho, the hard drive had no problems copying and transferring for over a year after the damage, while i continued to use it. I don't a reason why it wouldn't work now when i finally want to move a larger number of files at once (itunes music folder, iphoto library)

Problems with ripping files from my cds to Zen Touch via Mediasource pla

This is a problem I have had recently. I run Windows XP and have a Zen Touch which is a really decent player. However, just recently I have been unable to rip any CD tracks from my ample collection and put them on the Zen touch. I always get a little dialogue box which says CDrom doesn't support file ripping. Try the Recording function. It has done this even on CDs whose tracks I ACTUALLY put on the Zen touch already without any problem. Why is it doing this now?
I have tried re-installing the Zen touch cd a number of times but to no avail.
Thanks

Thanks for that. I have been going around in frustration with this thing for a few nights. Even my husband is at a loss with it and he knows more about this stuff than I do.
I have effected a temporary solution to the problem which is to rip cd tracks using Nero Startsmart which converts them to MP3 no problem. I have also tried using the Media Player as well. Now all I have to do is download from the MP3 folder the tracks I have already ripped and load them onto the Zen.
What I don't understand about all of this is that the MediaSource Software was working okay until this month.

Problems with indexing files from my hard disk

Hi everybody,
I'm a newbie to oracle and i'm trying to index files from my hard disk with oracle text. After i created a simple text file (path: 'c:\tmp\test.txt') and filled it with a short text, i executed the following lines without an error message:
grant connect, resource, ctxapp to myuser;
create table myuser.testtab(id number primary key, text BFILE);
create or replace directory test_dir as 'c:\tmp';
grant read on directory test_dir to myuser;
insert into myuser.testtab (id, text) values (1, BFILENAME('test_dir','test.txt'));
create index myuser.idx_test on myuser.testtab(text) indextype is ctxsys.context;
the record in the table testtab is stored, but the index table is empty. After i tried to get information about the bfile with java i got an SQLException with the Error-Code ORA-22285 after executing the following lines:
BFILE file = null;
try{
rset = stmt.executeQuery("select text from testtab where id = 1");
if (rset.next()) {
file = ((OracleResultSet) rset).getBFILE(1);
System.out.println("Result from fileExists: " + file.fileExists()); //This is the line where the exception is thrown
} catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
I would be obliged for any information to this problem.
Thanks in advance,
Chris J.

I have a procedure which download file for it's ID:
procedure DownloadFile(id number)
is
v_mime VARCHAR2 (48);
v_length NUMBER;
v_file_name VARCHAR2 (2000);
lob_loc BLOB;
i integer;
BEGIN

INTO v_mime, lob_loc, v_file_name, v_length
FROM documents d, mydocs m
WHERE d.id=m.doc_id
and m.id=i;
-- set up HTTP header
-- use an NVL around the mime type and
-- if it is a null set it to application/octect
-- application/octect may launch a download window from windows
OWA_UTIL.mime_header (NVL (v_mime, 'application/octet'), FALSE);
-- set the size so the browser knows how much to download
HTP.p ('Content-length: ' || v_length);
-- the filename will be used by the browser if the users does a save as
HTP.p ( 'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'

CHR (13),
NULL
|| '"'
-- close the headers
OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
-- download the BLOB
WPG_DOCLOAD.download_file(lob_loc);
end;
And when I press Download button, it open the file content in browser.
But I need save dialog, for saving the file in the clien machine.
How to solve this problem?

How downloaded objects/document are treated in browser is purely "browser defined behavior". Sometime someone said that or these kind of files (recognized by miome contenet - alias file extension) default behavior will be "show inline" or show in browser. This is esspecially true for Adobe 7.x and IE 6.x and Firefox 2.x....
For a test of my thoughts, install new browser (let say Opera or Mozila) and try to download LOB(doc). I'm sure that "Save As" dialog will show!
Hope this helps!
