PS Elements 5 Wont open RAW files

PS Elements 5 fails to recognize the NEF files my Nikon D40 collects when shooting RAW. The software help says PSE5 will only open RAW files from supported cameras. Is the D40 supported?

Adobe keeps updating camera raw plugins to accomodate new formats in their existing products. You just need to replace the Camera Raw.8bi file in your ~/Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop Elements/Plugins/File Formats folder with the one you dowmload from the link mentioned below.

Elements 13 wont open raw files from Nikon d750

Elements 13 wont open raw files from Nikon d750 camera, wont update either from the help menu, any ideas what to do.

carper
According to Adobe document, you require installation of at least Camera Raw 8.7 for your Nikon 750 for your Photoshop Elements 13 and Premiere Elements 13.
https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
And, I believe based on the following that Photoshop Elements 13 Premiere Elements 13 ships with Camera Raw 8.6.
https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
Consequently, the solution appears to revolve around getting the Help Menu/Updates to work since there is no manual install of Camera Raw 8.7 for 13.
Until the Premiere Elements update problem is resolved, you may have to resort to using the Nikon software. There is also the DNG 8.7 Converter
which you can download from Adobe link, not requiring the Help Menu/Update as does Camera Raw 8.7.
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7
There have been several reports of Help Menu/Update failures. I have not seen a generalized solution. I can only offer the
the typical "Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?"

How do I upgrade elements 10 to open raw files from my Canon 70d?

How do I upgrade elements 10 to open raw files from my canon 70d?

Normally, if there are any updates for your version of PSE then they should be offered to you automatically. However, you can also check if there are any new updates by going to:
Help >> Updates
If your camera is relatively new then even by getting the updates you may not be able to edit raw files from the new camera because old versions of PSE are normally not updated as soon as the new version hits the market. We are currently at version 13 so version 10 was stopped long time ago. However, you can see a workaround at this link where I posted a video to get things moving:
<Why can't I open my RAW files from my Nikon D7000 ?? I can open RAW files from my old Nikon D70's but not my D7000...>
Hope this helps.

Will Elements and Lightroom open RAW files fro the Sony DSCRX-100 camera?

Will elements and l;ightroom open RAW files from the Sony DSCRX-100 camera ?

I have the RX100 and confess to be an Adobe fan. You did not say which Lightroom or which elements you want to use. You need the latest versions.
Photoshop Elements 11 comes with Adobe Camera RAW (ACR) version 7.0 in place when you install it. Under the help menu, there is a choice to check for updates. If you do, ACR 7.2 installs. The RX100 is included in 7.2. Previous versions of Photoshop Elements will not udate to 7.2. When you open a RAW photo, a screen pops up that lets you adjust, convert and save to something Photoshop Elements can handle.
You have to have Lightroom 4.2 to get RX100 usefulness. Lightroom uses, but hides, the ACR engine. Instead the slider controls are built in the user interface. When you buy it, it installs as 4.0. The help menu also has an update choice so that you can get to 4.2 from 4.0.
You didn't ask, but Premier Elements 11 is a good choice for video because it is he first version that "officially" supports the high quality 1080p60 or "PS" setting in the RX100.
On T day, I shot RAW photos of my granddaughters dancing to a Wii game in terrible light. Yesterday I "adjusted" the batch of RAW shots taken with the RX100 in Lightroom and saved them as .jpg files. Today, I wll make a video in Premier Elements from those .jpg images, put in some pan and zoom effects, add a sound track and put it on Vimeo.
My view is that an RX100 owner needs PSE 11, PrE 11 and Lightroom 4 to take advantage of the camera's capabilties. Setting it on "fine" .jpg and uploading snapshots to Flicker leaves an awful lot on the table!

Aperture wont open raw files from my panasonic fz18

Hi Everyone, I have been using aperture 3 for about a year and have no problems opening raw files from my nikon camera but I thought I would use my old panasonic FZ18 when I go kayaking just in case the camera gets wet. To my surprise when I downloaded my raw files into Aperture from my FZ18 they would not open. Is there a codec or program update that will enable Aperture to open my raw files.
Thanks Colin

The FZ18, FZ35 and later are not supported by Apple RAW processing mostly due to the exotic barrel distortion correction that needs to be applied for wide angle shots. Even Adobe DNG converter will not convert the .RW2 files to DNG unless you use dngsanitize to remove the lens correction metadata. You can then bring the DNG files into Aperture.

I just purchased Elements 12 to open raw files for Olympus OMD 1. It won't open raw files. It is version 12.0. I tried to update it and got error for 12.1-U43M1D207 and for raw-U44M1120

What do I do to upload latest version for Elements 12 version 12.0 when getting an error for 12.1-U43M1D207 and for raw-U44M1120?

Unable to open raw files from canon d70 in elements 12 help

hi. just purchased elements 12 as i was told it would open my canon d70 raw files. have installed elements 12 and done the update from the update box in elements but still it wont open raw files. any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is probably a way to hack your system into work with ACR 8.3 using the plug-in ZIP file from this page and copying it manually to the specific folder where it needs to go:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/camera-raw-84-support-policy.html#To%20run%20Came ra%20Raw%20on%20Mac%20OS%2010.6,%20Windows%20XP,%20or%20Windows%20Vista,%20remove%20the%20 8.4%20plug-in%20and%20manually%20reinstall%20Camera%20Raw%208.3
Download the 32-bit version of ACR 8.3 from the page, above.
Unzip it to the file Camera Raw.8bi.
Copy that new Camera Raw.8bi over the top of the existing one in this folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 12\File Formats
Then install the DNG Converter 8.3 as mentioned in the page, above.

How can I open raw files in elements 12 from nikon d810

How can I use PS Elements (Mac) to open raw files from Nikon D810?

Hi,
The D810 requires camera raw 8.6 which currently is not available for Photoshop elements.
You could download and install the free Adobe DNG converter and use that to convert the NEF files to DNG files which can then be processed by Photoshop elements.

Can I update Elements 9 to handle RAW files from a Nikon D5200

Can I update Elements 9 to open RAW files from a Nikon D5200, or do I have to buy something?

You have two alternatives:
(1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.4
Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.4
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

Opening RAW files on Elements 11

Elements 11 wont open the RAW photo files from my Nikon D5200. This is listed as a supported camera ???

PSE 11 ships with Camera Raw 7.1, but you need at least Camera Raw 7.3 to work with your camera's RAW files. Use Help->Updates in the PSE Editor to obtain the latest version of Camera Raw that will work with PSE 11

Photoshop Elements 9 and cannot open Raw files from my Canon EOS 1000D camera.

I am using Photoshop Elements 9 on a Windows 7 based PC and would like to know why I cannot open Raw files produced by my Canon EOS 1000D camera.
I have checked the version of the plug in as 6.5 for raw files which is supposed to open .cr2 files and should be compatible according to Adobe site info.
any ideas for next move.
Mick

Hi,
According to all of Adobe's charts, the Canon 1000D should be supported by the basic PSE 9 even without updates. When you said you checked the camera raw version in PSE, did you do that by going to the Help menu and selecting About plugins -> Camera raw?
The Canon 1200D requires ACR 8.4 which is only compatible with PSE 12 - so for PSE 10 your brother would need the DNG converter.
I can't find a sample raw file to try (I do have PSE 9). If you want to upload a sample file to dropbox and give me access, I could try it on my system.
Have you tried opening one of your files on your brothers system?

How to open raw files in elements 11

how to open raw files in elements 11

Hi Have tried to do that but get a box with message along top "The file aready exists in the catalog" it is also showing the incorrect file path and saying not connected to the path I have found the photo in. The only differenct is that elements it saying it is in E drive and I have it in C drive the rest of the path is the same.
The photos have imported into the my folders but I can't open any, every one i've tried to open brings up the box "searching for missing file" There are no photos in E drive the path it is saying doesn't exist all photos are in c drive, very very frustrating

I can not open raw files in elements 12 any help please?

I can not open raw files from my Nikon D610 in elements 12. (I have already downloaded raw converter 8.3 but to no avail) any help please would be appreciated.

Hi,
Can you confirm which Camera Raw PSE 12 is actually using by loading the editor and going to Help -> About Plug-in -> Camera Raw.
If you do Help -> Updates it may install the latest camera raw of 8.4 - not on XP or Vista systems.
Do you use any Nikon software to download the images? The older versions have been known to corrupt the files.
See the following for more info.

My new Photoshop Elements 12 has a RAW file plug-in, but when I try OPEN to select a photograph, there are only generic icons instead of pictures-- I can't tell one photograph from another! How can I fix this so I can tell which photograph I want to open?

The first thing I did was UPDATE. I have all the latest updates available (according to the updater). The Camera Raw Plug-in says it is version 8.0.
The RAW files are from a Canon T3i. It's a very common camera, I can't believe it wouldn't be supported.
