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.
Jack

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

New mac user, unable to open camera raw files in CS6

I'd really appreciate some simple 'idiot steps' that will enable me to open camera raw files (nefs) in CS6...
you will have to assume that I am an idiot and know nothing about Macs (one of which is true, the other debateable!)
thank you

The file that you downloaded is a self-contained running application that installs the update on your computer. After you download that file, you need to double-click on it and follow the prompts to install it. After it has completed you will have Lightroom 4.4 installed and it will be ready to run. If you are on a Windows computer, the installation will replace your 4.1 installation. If you are on a Mac then you will have both versions installed and you will have to be sure you start the right one.

Problems opening up RAW files in the Adobe elements 12 editor

I just installed Elements12 on my Windows Desktop.
Operating System Windows XP SP3, Quad Core Processor 2.4GhZ, 3Gb RAM (based on these spec, I should be meeting minimum system requirements)
My camera's RAW format (Rebel 4Ti, CR2) is supported by the installed Camera RAW version (8.0.0.xx).
I had no problems opening up the RAW file into Camera Raw. I performed the basic adjustments and save the image as a .DNG file. No problems so far.
(1) I then tried to open the RAW file into the Elements Editor by clicking on "OPEN Image" in Camera RAW. I goes the error message that this action could not be completed due to a program error.
(2) I also tried to open the .DNG file directly. I got an error message telling me I had not enough RAM to complete this action (see above, I have 3Gb installed)
Can anybody advise me what to do, or what the problem is>
Thanks.

You might start looking for a new computer with windows 7 or 8 64 bit.
Not because windows xp is a bad operating system, but it's not supported by microsoft any longer and more and more software companies are dropping support for xp.
(even one of my favorite open source programs; Krita, dropped support for windows xp)
Plus, new programs seem to be more and more ram hungry and a 64 bit version of windows can make a world of difference.

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.

Opening Camera Raw Files from Nikon D700 to CS2

Hi there! I recently upgraded from the Nikon D200 to the D700. I haven't managed to upgrade to CS5 though! Can anyone help me, I'm trying to open my Camera Raw files in CS2, but I can't. What version of the upgrade do I need for the Camera Raw and where do I find it!
Many thanks!
Carla

The last version that is compatible with Photoshop CS2 is Camera Raw 3.7. It is available from the download site. If you are not going to upgrade your Photoshop then it will be necessary for you to download the latest version of the DNG converter and use it to create Digital negative copies of your raw files. Then you will be able to open those DNG files in ACR 3.7.

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,
Matt Dubuque

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.

Problem opening 40D RAW files

I have installed CS3 Extended and then downloaded and installed Camera RAW 4.2. In CS3 in the Help / about plug-ins option, Camera RAW 4.2 is named. I have also opened CS3 with the ctrl key depressed and cleared the cache / reset preferences.
I have CS3 installed on d: (d:\program files\adobe\... )
and Camera Raw.8bi is installed in
d:\program files\common files\adobe\plug-ins\cs3\file formats\
(This is the version from 29/08/07 10136kB)
In bridge I can see thumbnails of 350D files but not 40D files and I can't open the 40D files in Camera Raw (on the 350D files I can right click and "open in Camera Raw..."
The 40D files are the full size RAW at 9-14Mb rather than sRAW files.
I don't know where to go next to try to get the 40D files recognised. Any suggestions anyone?
Thanks

If it works on a Mac it must work on a PC...right Ab? (-;
I tried the 40d raws on my laptop and all is well so there must be a problem with ACR on my desktop. I have seen a few messages in that regard so will proceed down that path.
Thanks for motivating me to check further on my end Ab.

Bridge does not open camera raw files

I am having this issue with the bridge not opening cr2 files in acr. I have a new mac and installed CS6 with 7,4 acr. Has anyone come up with a solution to this bug?
The error message is :
camera raw editing is not enabled camera raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched once to enable this feature
I really would prefer to not uninstall this product and it is not the case that I have another trial copy. I have searched my computer and cannot find any.
Thanks for any new ideas on this bug.

I noticed that there are still adobe folders for photoshop and premiere on the computer. Should I just delete those folders?
Use Easy Find (Devon) and run Adobe in search field. From the list select the folders that you have doubt about and choose Show in finder option. Then look at the content. If it are custom settings like actions, tools, brushes best keep them save.
But to be totally on the save side select all search result and copy them to a separate disk as Back Up so you can always find some lost customized settings back. All other deleted files should be reinstalled as per new install on new disk.
I would like to get it right this time. I was also wondering if I can still download the dmg directly from adobe or is that not available anymore.
If you have bought a download version of the Master Collection for CS6 then their should be a possibility to download it again using your Adobe ID. The new CC can be downloaded again using ACC.
Otherwise you have to contact Adobe customer support for a new copy or download.
