Problems opening camera raw files in photoshop need help

I am having problems opening cr. files in photoshop and I'm not sure what to do. In case you couldn't tell I am really new to adobe products and am pretty clueless. Anyone know of a tutorial on this subject I would really appreciate any info. Yes I have done a search in help but it didn't cover the process very well.
Thanks for your help and understanding.

  • Problems opening camera raw files.

    I have tried to open camera raw files (CR2 and RW2) and get an error message that PSE9 can't open this file because it is the wrong type of file. I had thought that PSE9 could open and process Camera Raw. Will appreciate your suggestion for resolving this issue. Thanks.

    Try opening directly from the folder rather than from Organizer
    Right click on a file and choose Open With photoshop elements editor

  • Bridge CS6 insist to open Camera raw files via Photoshop CS6 instead of CC

    Hi
    I´ve trying to start using Photoshop CC instead of CS6. The problem is that my Bridge CS6 is opening Camera RAWs to Photoshop CS6 as a default instead of CC. I`ve changed Finder defaults and as well as Bridges own File type assosiations to use Photoshop CC as a default, but still it isnt working. I wouldnt want to delete Photoshop CS6 completely.
    Any help, anyone?

    Which version mac os x are you using?
    If it's mac os x 10.6.8 snow leopard, then post back before installing bridge cc.
    I believe you need to install bridge cc so your camera raw files will open from the camera raw dialog in bridge cc to photoshop cc.
    Also of note is the camera raw version for bridge cs6 doesn't have any of the new features that the bridge cc version of camera raw has.
    If you open the the Creative Cloud Desktop.app, then you should see Bridge CC available for install.

  • Cannot Open Camera RAW files: Do I need to reinstall PS?

    Hello,
    I reinstalled PS today after I got my computer back from the repair shop.
    Now it will not open RAW files.
    I get the following error message:
    Any thoughts on what might be going on?  I realize this is an Apple screen shot, but I think this might be platform independent.  I'm posting my question there as well.
    Thanks,

    Hello, thanks for being so very helpful!
    I'm typing from another computer, so I can't immediately check which version of Camera RAW I am using.  But I updated Photoshop in what I believe is the best way, recommended on all the readme files of Adobe.
    I went to Help/Updates, clicked on it and was automatically routed to the latest and greatest updates.
    And my camera is a Canon 5D, so my best judgment is that even if it were not the VERY latest it would still be sufficient; many of the RAW updates have substantially been the addition of other, newer cameras to the list of supported hardware and mine has been supported for at least a year, before CS5 arrive.
    I know that that a great big part of the  problem is within Photoshop.  This is because my settings on the Image Processor are always for 1920 x 1080.  And when I run the Image Processor with these settings and then check my Destination folder where I have chosen to batch my new and improved downsized images to are ALL incorrectly sized to 1620 x 1080.
    So the problem is contained within the Photoshop module, or at least I have to solve that aspect before I go on to further troubleshooting.
    I have an academic discount so I've decided, because this seems to be a profoundly difficult problem to resolve promptly in view of my film submittal deadline, to purchase another full version of Photoshop for Windows, use it on my Windows machine, resize everything there and then export those .psd files on a thumb drive over to my Mac Pro.
    (I have all my key photos also on a Windows machine as a backup).
    It had not occurred to me until this morning that this approach will probably work.
    I've marked you as "answering" this question and I very much am thankful that you have helped me.

    PS:  The film is shot in 1920 x 1080 HD, so I need to make all the photos fit within that "frame" on the Premiere timeline.

    Hi,
    The D810 requires Camera Raw 8.6 or later - the latest version that is compatible with Photoshop Elements 12 is Camera Raw 8.5 as far as I can see.
    You need to either buy a new version of Photoshop Elements or use the free Adobe DNG converter.
    DNG  Converter 8.8

  • Opening camera raw files in photoshop

    Does anyone know if it is possible to open my .NEF files from my D4s in photoshop?  Do they have to be converted in some way first?

    Which version of Photoshop?
    Support for the D4s has just been added to Adobe Camera Raw 8.4 (the plugin used by Photoshop to process Raw files)
    However ACR8.4 is only compatible with CS6 and CC
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/cameraraw8-4-cc/?tabID=details#tabTop
    If you don't have CS6 or CC then you'll have to download the free Adobe DNG converter 8.4, convert all D4s Rawfiles to DNGs then open the DNGs in your version of Photoshop

  • Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw Update for Photoshop CS5. I have a pc.

    Please Help? Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw update. I have a pc.

    If the camera is fairly new then the version of ACR you have with CS5 won't be able to read those file. You'll need to upgrade to a newer version of Photoshop or use Lightroom 5.
    Once a new version of Photoshop comes out Adobe does not support updating ACR from the older version of PS.

    Where can I find the plugin to open camera raw files for Nikon D810 for Photoshop CS5.1? I've looked around the site but cannot get this to work.. Thank you.

    See for yourself which version of ACR is needed for that camera’s RAW files
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    then check your version (Photoshop > About Plug-In > Camera Raw).
    Your version of Photoshop does not support that version of ACR.
    You could use the free DNG Converter.

  • Just upgraded to 10.8.4 and now can't open canon raw files in photoshop cs5 with camera raw plug in 6.7

    i've just upgraded to os 10.8.4 and now i can't open canon raw files in photoshop cs5 with camera raw plug in 6.7 which worked perfectly prior to the upgrade....anyone else encountered this issue?

    Adobe's software is a mess in terms of the fact that it's sprayed all over the place and may not survive an OS upgrade.  Try reinstalling Photoshop CS5.

  • I am using PSE 9. I had no problem opening my Raw files from my Canon Rebel XT  Now  I have a Rebel 5ti and pse 9 won't reconize the Cr2 files

    I am using PSE 9. I had no problem opening my Raw files from my Canon Rebel XT  Now  I have a Rebel 5ti and pse 9 won't reconize the Cr2 files

    See this faq:
    FAQ: Will Photoshop Elements work with my camera, or Why won't my raw files open?
    That will explain why each new camera model uses its own raw format. (.CR2 does not indicate a format, only a Canon family of formats).
    The first link tells you what version of camera raw is needed for your camera : https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    You need ACR 7.4
    The second link tells you which ACR versions are supported by Elements versions Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    PSE9 supports version 6.5
    Further down on that paper, you get links to download the free Adobe DNGconverter for Mac or Win.
    This standalone software can batch convert a whole folder of raw files to the DNG raw file format that your present PSE9 can read.
    Otherwise, you would have to upgrade to version 10 or later.

  • Opening Camera Raw file in CS3 Bridge

    I have CS3 Bridge and CS3 Dreamweaver instaled as well as Photoshop CS2.
    I want to open Camera Raw files in CS3 Bridge. The Bridge Help file says:
    "Select 'Edit Camera Raw Settings' in Bridge General Preferences to open Camera Raw dialog box in Bridge" (as opposed to opening in Photoshop.)
    But my Bridge General Preferences has no such checkbox option. When I open a CR file in CS3 Bridge, the file opens in Photoshop CS2.
    How do I get the file to open in CS3 Bridge.
    Thanks, CMA

    I had a problem with this previously and came up with the following:
    If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF and hold down the shift key, Camera Raw will not be scheduled
    If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF image, the image will always schedule Camera Raw if the Bridge menu item Edit/Preference/Thumbnails has Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG and TIFF checked (Bridge JPEG and TIFF Checked).
    If I am in Bridge and double click a JPEG or TIFF image and Bridge JPEG and TIFF is unchecked and the JPEG or TIFF image has previously been processed by Camera Raw, Camera Raw will be scheduled if Camera Raw Preferences dialog has Always open JPEG files with settings using Camera Raw or Always open TIFF files with settings using Camera Raw checked.
    If I am in Bridge and double click a TIFF image and the TIFF file has layers, the TIFF file will not schedule Camera Raw.
    In Photoshop Preferences (Edit/Preference/File Handling) there is a check box titled Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG files. I checked the check box and opened a JPEG image in Photoshop Camera Raw was scheduled. I clicked Open Image in ACR and then saved the image in Photoshop (JPEG saved in Photoshop after passing thru ACR). I then Unchecked the check box and opened the JPEG file Camera Raw was not scheduled.
    The only action I see for the Photoshop File Handling check box is to either schedule or not to schedule JPEG images. I do not see any related action for TIFF files in Photoshop. My expectation is that TIFF files will open in Photoshop not ACR.

  • Can't update camera raw file in photoshop cs5

    I have Adobe Photoshop CS5, version 12.0.4.  I am trying to open camera raw files ending in ARW (Hasselblad Stellar Camera) and PhotoShop tells me there are no updates available.  I have downloaded the mac os file (using Yosemite, latest version) and get the message the installation was successful, however, PhotoShop still shows that the Camera Raw Version is still 6.0.0.205.  I can view the ARW files in finder, however when I try to open the file in PhotoShop CS5 I get this message:
    Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw.
    Please visit the Camera Raw help documentation for additional information.

    you can update ps cs5 to cr 6.7
    update by downloading the files directly and then applying them:
    pre cc updates:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
    i'm not sure which camera you have but the hassleblad stellar II needs cr 8.8 or better.
    your options (if that's your camera) are to upgrade ps or to use the dng converter.

    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:
