Problems opening & resaving NEF files with CS3/CS2

I seem to be having problems sending my NEF files to Photoshop from Aperture. This started happening just today & I'm not sure what to do.
What happens is that when I open a NEF file in external editor, instead of just opening up as a psd file in CS3 or CS2 directly like it used to do, it now opens Adobe Raw instead which means that I am unable to resave back into my Aperture Library. Is there anyone who has experienced this as well? Any suggetions as to the cause and a solution? I tried checking preferences for both Aperture as well as Photoshop but nothing seems to work.
The only thing I can think of is having just updated Adobe Raw to the latest version, 4.3 I think. Other than that Aperture did start up about a week ago & declared my library corrupt & proceeded to rebuild my library. Other than that it was behaving normally until today. Its really irritating & counter productive to be unable to resave my edits in Aperture.
Any help or suggestions will be very welcome indeed. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the tip Eduardo, but I checked the preferences and they seem to be correct.
It seems that only images in certain projects were affected. Could be the ones that Aperture rebuilt earlier. I guess I may have to try exporting the raw files from the affected projects, then deleting and reimporting the projects again. I did try to rebuild the thumbnails but it doesn't seem to help.
Does anyone have any other suggestions for me to try before I do this?

  • Problem opening D700 nef files with ACR 4.6

    Hi there,
    I am running PS CS3 on a Mac with OS 4.11. I have just down loaded the beta version of adobe camera raw 4.6 - normally I don't down load betas but I am desperate to work on my D700 files in PS CS3. And I still can't open the RAW files...ACR 4.6 won't recognize the 'NEFs'...I have followed the instructions about replacing the plug in as per the release notes. Yet I still can't open the files. I love PS, please help.
    Thanks,
    Sean

    Ok I went to the location and found this:
    mac/library/application support/adobe/plug-ins/cs3/file formats/dng_cameraraw_4-6_091708.dmg
    It turns out that it was here all along - I put in camera raw as two words and not one when I asked the finder and I put the exact name of the camera raw update so you can see it.
    I must still be doing something wrong as its still not reading the NEFs from either my Nikon D700 or the NEFs from a D200 that I had before I switched to the D700.
    I will go and check the path again - I do not know what else to do.

  • I can't open D7200 NEF file with Photoshop CS6. I checked the updates and there are no updates available. What do I do?

    Hi,
    I can't open D7200 NEF files with Photoshop CS6.I checked the updates and there are no updates available.What do I do?
    Nitin

    For the time being, shoot JPEG images. At this time there is no support for NEF files from the D7200 in any Adobe product. It was released at such a time that it wasn't included in the last Camera Raw update. And Lightroom hasn't been updated either. Consequently, there is no DNG converter available at this time. We will have to wait and see what programs will be able to accommodate the D7200 when Adobe releases updates or upgrades that support the camera.

  • Lightroom 1.4 - problem opening up NEF files

    Hi there,
    I've been having problems opening up NEF files in Lightroom 1.4, a message keeps coming up saying that the file is not recognised. I'm using a MacBook Pro and can't get a solution - can someone please advise on the best course of action?
    Thanks!

    >a Nikon D3
    I don't think that one is supported in LR 1.4. The camera was released after LR 1.4 was released. To get support for that camera, either upgrade to LR 2 or convert the NEF files to dng using the free DNG converter that you can download from http://www.adobe.com/products/dng/

  • Can't open d90 NEF files in CS3 or bridge. Any ideas?

    I have recently upgraded to a Nikon d90 and i can no longer open any NEF files in photoshop or adobe bridge. Any ideas pleAse? Thanks

    Hello, according to http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html, the D90 is supported by ACR 4.6 that works with CS3. Is it the version currently installed? (check in about>plug-ins)

  • Canon 5 d mark 2 - opening RAW/CR2 files with CS3???

    I have CS3 version 10.0.1 and Raw convertor 4.6 and a Canon 5 d mark 2
    I have downloaded the Camera RAW and DNG converter 5.2 and camera profiles but photoshop still will not open the files and Bridge just displays the RAW icon. Photoshop says it does not recognize this file format?
    Any other suggestions- I have downloaded it now a couple of times and tried to install- but no luck - it still does not recognize the 5 d mark 2 .CR2 files - HEELLPPPP!!

    >will I be able to edit them with Bridge?
    NEVER! But you can use Bridge to open your DNGs in Adobe Camera Raw. :)
    Bridge is just a file browser. It does not open, edit or save files of any kind. It just hands the files over to the appropriate application(s) to open them, like Photoshop, Camera Raw, Illustrator, Acrobat, even MS Word, etc.

  • I am having problems opening my .nef files after updating to LR 4.4.

    My previews are tagged with an ! and prompt a "this file cannot be read due to an error' when in Develop mode

    This is possible from with in Lr4.4 there is absoultely no need for what you are suggesting.

  • How do I open D7000 NEF files with PSE8

    How.

    Hi,
    Nikon D7000 needs ACR 6.3 in order to work with PSE 9
    This camera will not work with PSE 8 but with PSE 9 , yes it will work if ACR 6.3 or greater is installed.
    Please open editor in PSE 9
    Goto help >> About plugin>> Camera raw

  • Open JP2 file with Photoshop CS2

    Does anyone know how to open JP2 (JPEG2000) files with Phoshop CS2?
    Thanks in advance!

    Check the optional plug-ins on the install disc. Failing that, download an alternate image viewer/ conversion program and convert the file.

  • CS won't open my NEF files taken on my Nikon D3100.

    I have CS and have no problem openning my nef files taken with my D70. I just bought a D
    3100 and the NEF files will not open. I get an error saying it's not the right file type. Does anyone know
    why this is happening and what I can do to fix it?

    I found out the hard way, that I had to see if I had the latest version of the camera raw, which is for the cs. Odds are that your version is not support, you will have to go the dng route or you will have to upgrade your software to the latest version.

    Yes, you can.  You just need to update your Camera Raw plug-in to version 4.6, which is the last version to run with CS3.
