Problems viewing Raw Files

I have recently installed Photoshop CS4 on a new PC. When I open Bridge all Raw images are shown as icons and will not then open up in Photoshop (says there the wrong file type). When I try to install the latest version of Adobe Camera Raw and try to install it it says thet Bridge needs to be closed to continue installation but Bridge is allready closed. This has never been a problem on my old PC. Any help would be grateful.

You mentioned that you downloaded the latest version of Camera Raw.
Be aware that different versions of Camera Raw are specific to the version of Photoshop.
I believe the most recent version of Camera Raw that will work with PS CS4 is ACR v. 5.7
The later version like 6.5 will only work with PS CS5 or later.

  • Can't view RAW files in Organizer

    I have Elements 5.0 and I just downloaded the Adobe Camera Raw 4.5 (latest version to work with 5.0) and while I can now edit raw files, I cannot see them as thumbnails in Organizer.
    Is there something else I need to do?  Does Elements 7.0 fix this problem?  My camera is a Canon Xti.
    I am unable to view RAW files as thumbnails in Windows Explorer either, and have been told it's a Canon driver issue, but I don't think that is related.
    Thanks for any help.

    This advice also applies to your case, PSE5 and ACR 4.5 (by the way, 4.6 is the latest version to work with PSE5)

  • Lightroom crashes when viewing RAW files (LR 6)

    Hey,
    my LR 6 Trial Build 1018573 crashes when viewing raw files on my mac book pro late 2010. The problem occurs when I press the right arrow several times to get to the next picture. The RAW files are Fuji. I don't expiernce the problem with LR 5.7, but migrated my whole catalog.. :-/
    I turned off the automatic change of graphics mode to be sure that the better graphic-card is used.
    Any help or suggestions how to solve the prolbem?
    Thanks in advance!

    In the Preferences dialog, Performance tab, try turning off all GPU support.
    Lots of issues with the video cards, especially ATI cards.

  • Problem inporting raw files from my Nikon D3200

    i have problems importing raw files from my Nikon D3200, i have tried some of the suggestions such as
    removing the RawCamera.bundle and RawCameraSupport.bundle from the System Library and downloading a newer version (OS X Yosemite: Supported digital camera RAW formats - Apple Support)
    The problem is  --  the latest RAW Compatibility Update version for Yosemite 6.02 appears to be the one I currently am using (in my System Folder).
    In that same article referenced above, my Nikon D800 is listed in an earlier version simply titled "Supported by Yosemite 10.10".
    This had some success but is not working after trying it several times, i am currently on version  OSX Yosemite 10.10.1 and the version of iphoto is 9.6
    any help would be greatly received as i only shoot in Raw

    Remove the RawCamera.bundle and RawCameraSupport.bundle again and update the system to 10.10.2 via the App Store.  That contains the bundles that will support that camera: OS X Yosemite: Supported digital camera RAW formats - Apple Support.  The 6.01 and 6.02 updates are not needed for that camera. Be sure to repair disk permissions after the update.
    As usual be sure you have a backup of your hard drive before applying any such update.

    Are you receiving an error when installing or are you unable to view your CR2 files once Photoshop is installed?

  • Problems loading RAW files from Canon 6D in Elements 10

    Elements 10 - Windows: I have been using the software for a couple of years and never had a problem loading RAW files from my Canon T2i ir 60D, however I just purchased a Canon 6D and when I try to load a RAW from the 6D I get Cannot open 'C:\User...CR2' because it is the wrong type of file.  I thought cameraraw 6.5 patch would be the fix but when trying to install I get "Error loading Updater workflow"

    Will the DNG files perform the same, meaning will I retain all the information that makes RAW important for processing?
    Yes. That's why DNGs were invented. Adobe has put a lot of work into the DNG format for this very reason.
    Raw files are proprietary and manufacturer specific. Raw formats change with every make and model of camera. Software must be updated for the new Raw format of every single camera. Adobe does an admirable job of upgrading Camera Raw for every new camera.
    DNG is also a Raw format but it's open source and works in any software which can read the DNG format. If camera manufacturers used the DNG format instead of their own Raw format, you would not have to upgrade Elements 10. But they don't, and probably never will, so you must upgrade the Camera Raw plugin (and therefore Elements 10 since it's not compatible with the new Camera Raw) to read the new Raw format from the 6D or add another step to your workflow with conversion to DNG first.

  • Problems importing raw files into Lightroom 3.4

    I've just dowloaded lightroom 3.4 and now I'm having problems importing raw files into lightroom.  I havent had a problem before.  Can anyone help me?  My camera is a Nikon D7000.

    Perhaps a few more details are required. Take a look at the FAQ "How to get help quickly"

  • Why can't I view RAW files in CS3

    I have installed CS3 on a new MacBook Pro. I am unable to edit/view RAW files from my Nikon D5000 Digital SLR.
    Can you tell me what I am doing incorrectly.

    You'll need to update to CS4 to get the updated Camera RAW plugin, or use the free DNG converter to convert your NEF files to DNG before processing with CS3.

  • Problems loading raw files from Nikon D750 to lightroom4

    problems loading raw files from Nikon D750 to lightroom4. Any thoughts?

    This is a recently produced model so raw support was only added in LR 5.7 / ACR 8.7, updates to LR 4 ceased about two years ago when LR 5 was issued.
    Options a.) Upgrade to LR 5.
    b.) Utilize the latest Adobe DNG Converter 8.8 to convert the nef files to dng format then you will be able to import the dng files into LR 4.

  • Cannot view RAW files on Sony RX 100

    Cannot view RAW files on Sony RX 100

    Keith, the latest raw support claims to have fixed issues with the RX-100 raw support:
    Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 5.03This update adds RAW image compatibility for additional cameras to Aperture 3 and iPhoto '11. Jan 16, 2014
    This update adds RAW image compatibility for the following camera to Aperture 3 and iPhoto '11:
    Canon EOS M2
    It also includes fixes that:
    Resolve an issue that prevented lens correction from working properly with Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 images
    Address a color cast issue on some Olympus OM-D E-M1 images
    The RX-100 has been supported since earlier, but the previous raw support has introduced a bug.
    itunesisbullshitplopcrapshould update the raw support. 
    This requires Aperture 3.5. and Mavericks.
    Correction: This requires
    System Requirements
    OS X 10.8.5 w/ iPhoto 9.4.3 or Aperture 9.4.5
    OS X 10.9 w/ iPhoto 9.4.3 or Aperture 9.4.5

  • Iightroom version 1.4.1 cannot  view Raw files

    Im having trouble viewing RAW files taken on a Nikon D700.

    Harvie,
    Yes, that would be the case. The D700 came out much later than LR 1.4.1, and it produces raw files that that version of LR doesn't understand.
    You can either download and use the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your NEFs to DNGs (which your version of LR will read), or you can upgrade to the latest version of Lightroom, for probably $99. (Rumour has it that LR3 will be announced in the next couple of days.) Personally, I'd do the latter. Lots of improvements since LR 1.

  • Problems with viewing RAW files and cannot update to ACR 5.7

    Hi
    I purchased a canon 7D today, then went to take some pictures and came home to find my RAW files are not readable by Bridge or Photoshop. I have done some research and it seems that the solution would be to update. I did this. However, two of my five updates failed to install, one of which is ACR 5.7. I then looked into this and have found the best option is to manual install, but this is confusing me as the directories is says to use do not exist on my mac. I don't know what to do, can anyone help? I just want to be able to view my files in Bridge and edit in ACR and photoshop!!!!!
    Thanks.

    If you download the 5.7 camera raw update from the following link,
    the installation should be automated:

  • I can no longer view raw files in bridge - CS4

    I have already updated camera raw to view my CR2 files from my Canon 50 D.  All was working well, I have already edited over 1000 photos using bridge to browse.  I used it yesterday and it worked fine.  Shot some more photos, loaded them to my computer and then tried to browse in bridge.  Now bridge will not show me the photos, I get the raw icon only.  I reset preferences.....restarted my computer.....installed updates...... I have no idea why it suddenly stopped working....or how to fix it!  Has anyone had a similar problem?  I am using windows vista.

    These same files however do open with my photoshop elements 5 and I have updated the camera raw in this file also.
    I would guess that the RAW files were updated  into the wrong folder.  There can be only one ACR in the file, and it must be in correct location.  Re-read the download instructions to make sure you did it correctly.

  • Photoshop Elements 8 - unable to view RAW files

    Hi.
    I have been using Adobe Elements 8 since it came on to the market. I use Canon Cameras and my latest one being a 1Dmkiv.
    When I got the Canon 1D I down loaded the appropriate RAW file I think it was 5.6 and followed the instructions and changed the Camera Raw.8bi file and it worked perfect and I was able to view and edit Raw files.
    Last week my computer failed and I have had a new hard drive and hence have had to upload all my software. I installed Elements 8 back onto the computer and reinstalled the photograph catalogues I had backed up within Elements 8 before the computer crash.
    When the photographs in the catalogues were viewed only JPEG files were visible, the raw files are shown as a a grey negative with a zig zag across them. I thought that I would have to upload again the lates RAW update, which I did and went through all the instructions as given by Adobe. I changed the Raw.8bi file within Elements 8 and I still am unable to view any Raw files within Elements 8. I desperately need access to these files. Any help would be appreciated
    Best regards

    Thanks so much for your reply. My problem appeared to be that most of the thumb
    nails had lost their links and I had to individually update the thumbnails from within the program. It wasn't a problem
    with the RAW file not being updated.

  • I can't open or view RAW files?

    I have two Macs. One is an iMac and one is a Macbook. I usually always use my iMac for photo processing and storage. And I use an external hard drive to store all my photos.
    Now I recently had to take my macbook with me because I was going out of town and could not transport my iMac. But I was missing a lot of updated things on my macbook, such as my preferences and settings, apps, files, etc, since I rarely use it... and I wanted to transfer all that to my Macbook without the use of tedious uploading and formatting. So I reformatted my macbook by backing it up onto an external drive, erasing the disk, and then migrating my data from my iMac to my macbook. Everything seemed just fine with all my latest settings and files where they should be... until I opened a folder or Bridge and could not view or open any RAW files.
    It said I did not have enough access privileges. I am the admin of both my computers, but I do have other accounts for my mom and 2 others for whatever reason (they have never interfered before). I rarely use those accounts and they are NOT admins. But it said that only my mom's account had the privileges to read and write the files on my external hard drive (which has all my photos.) I logged into her account, and sure enough, I could view and open all the RAW files. I can view and open jpegs on my account now, but not any RAW files.
    I tried going to "get info" on the external drive, and it said that everyone could read and write. But when I went to individual folders and files, it said only my mom could read and write. And even when changing the permissions so that everyone could, it still didn't work.
    I also have the latest software updates... I have tried doing disk utility. And right now it's still going, saying it has 8 hours left, and so far there are hundreds of thousands of problems. It never was like this until just today.
    I really need to get this problem solved. I have work to do and without being able to even see my RAW files, yet alone edit them, makes it really hard. I also want to avoid creating a new account because my account now has all my personal stuff... from all my music on my iTunes, to my actions, to my settings, applications, etc. And it would be very hard to redo all of that. So it would be great if I could somehow fix my user privileges.
    Does anyone know what to do? I'd appreciate any help from you!
