PSE8 - Camera raw

Is it possible to update the camera raw somehow in photoshop elements 8 ?
I think the program is great but i was wondering could i change the colors of my .raw pictures in camera raw? The camera raw version in cs4 has more possibilities and few more tabs where is possible to modify the colors in the picture

If you have the mac version you can do this in bridge, but otherwise, no, sorry.

How do I open .jpg in Camera Raw in PSE8

Hi. I've searched and coudn't find the answer.
I installed PSE8, and Camera Raw 5.5, which shows up in the Help-Plugins list.

Thanks.

Sorry, just found it.

Cant Open Camera Raw file in PSE8

Hi Folks
Please help ?.. I have recently purchased PSE8 for the Imac. I cant open my Camera Raw processed Images in PSE8. My workflow is very simple > Bridge > Select Image I want to work on > Open in Camera raw > alter Image > Select Done when finished > which returns me to Bridge with the Altered Image added to Bridge > click on the Image I processed in Camera Raw to Open in PSE8 > PSE8 opens but with the ordinal unprocessed image, I can not get the Image processed in camera raw to open at all in PSE8 ...
So is it actually possible to open a Camera Raw processed file in PSE8 and if so how ?
Many thanks folks for any help you may have with this..

Hi Barbara
Does saving the file in Camera Raw alter the original file in Bridge or does it save a completely new file in Bridge with the changes ? As I do not want to lose any of the files in their original state.
Thanks for your help.

I cannot access the Camera Raw Dialogue Box in PSE8 in windows 7. Is it possible?

I have PSEv.8 & WIN 7. I installed Camera raw three or four days ago without a problem, and it works just fine. Detailed directions are here:

Using Camera Raw in PSE8

I nornally use Photoshop CS3 but I have just download the TRY version of PSE8 and would like to open jpg files via Camera Raw, how can I set up the Preferences to be able to do this, is it possible or can I only open raw files via Camera Raw.

Thank you for your quick reply, but I have been able to set up CS3 so that all jpg files open in Camera Raw first, I can then make changes and then open in CS3. It seems that under Edit/Preferences/File_Handling I am able to set a File Compatibility check box that enables me to open jpg files within Adobe Camera Raw. I don't seem to be able to find the function in PSE8.

Correctin camera distortion in Camera raw with PSE8

I have a question,
In PS CS3 when i open a RAW file from bridge, i can correct Camera distortion (lens distortion) for example Lens vignetting in the raw converter CAmera Raw .
There is a TAB with this options.
Now i downloaded (for another computer) PSE 8 with bridge for CS4
When i open a RAW file from bridge in Camera Raw 5.5 there is not the option anymore for correcting the camera(lens) distortion.
Is this because it is a trial version or is this because it is PSE in stead of Photoshop CS?
does anybody know this?
I like to know before i buy PSE 8
I know i can correct in PSE itself but then i need to do for every photo itself and not in batch
Thanks in advance for an answer
Best regards,
Gluay

BArbara,
thanks. Yes i was talking about PSE8 for MAC.
It works now.
Best regards,

Sony a580, PSE8 and Camera Raw

Hi, having just purchased a sony a580 i've just found out that the RAW files are not supported by current ACR.
I use PSE8. Will there be an update available soon that will support RAW files from the a580 in ACR & PSE8?

ACR 6.3 plug-in is now available for PSE9. ACR 6.2 can be used to update PSE8. To find out what version you have open the PSE Editor and click:
Help >> About Plug-in >> Camera Raw
You can simply open the Editor and click on Help >Updates or download manually. If downloading manually to the desktop, extract the files, and double click on the AdobePatchInstaller file - then follow the on-screen instructions.
Click here for Windows download for PSE9.
Click here for MAC download for PSE9.
Click herefor Windows download for PSE8.
Click here for MAC download for PSE8.
N.B. For those not wishing to upgrade to PSE9 - you can use the freely available DNG converter 6.3 and then use Elements to open and edit the DNG files. It’s recommended you keep your original raw files as back-up as they can always be read by your camera software.
DNG Converter 6.3 for Windows.
DNG Converter 6.3 for MAC.

Will Camera RAW 6.3 work with PSE8?

Simple question: Will it work if i download the new Camera RAW? I have PSE 8.0.
As i read it, it will only work with 9.0?

Well, no, actually that's not typical for PSE and ACR, but it does seem to be the case this time.
You might try downloading the latest standalone DNG converter (part of the PS ACR download), and see if PSE 8 can open the DNG files it creates, if your camera model requires 6.3.

Help for using camera raw in PSE 8/Bridge for Mac for the Canon 7D

Recently purchasing the Canon 7D, taking a few test photos in Raw, then trying to use Camera Raw in PSE8/Bridge for Mac is a problem. I cannot figure it out. Can anyone help this frustrated, novice computer user?

You need to update the camera raw plug-in for bridge and PSE 8 separately (they use two different copies). In Bridge, just go to Help>Updates which will install, I think, ACR 5.7, which works with your camera. (You can't update bridge beyond that version).
For PSE 8, go here, download the latest version and follow the instructions in the readme file.

Note that the directions may tell you that you can overwrite the old plug-in. That isn't true--you must remove it before putting the new one in there.

Cannot update Camera raw 5.7 on PSE 7

Anyone can help me on this update process?
I purchased an PSE7 and sucessfully installed into my pc(window XP SP2), Since I am using a newer camera and tried to open raw file. and it said 'did not support this type of file", I immediately update the camera raw by clicking help>update and found 1 update shown in the window box. I clicked update and download procedure follow, after that they installed automatically and finished updating in less then a minute. I closed the PSE7 and opened it again, it still cannot open the raw file, i check the help>system info, and I still saw camera raw 4.5, that means it was not updated , so anyone can guide me this or help me out what happen? I am not very good at computer, please explain detaily so I can try step by step. Thanks

ACR 5.7 only works with PSE8+.
According to the updates page, the latest version that works with PSE7 is ACR 5.6. And I have both PSE7 and PSE8 on my computer and can verify that PSE7 gives an error message about the ACR 5.7 being incompatible if I overwrite ACR 5.6 with ACR 5.7 in the PSE7 directory.
An issue with the originally posted version was it was missing the CameraProfiles.exe that installs all the file-based camera profiles and that the instructions referred to PSE7 for the install location even though it was talking about PSE8 in the rest of the instructions. Both of these mistakes have been corrected, but this won't make ACR 5.7 work with PSE7.

Adobe Camera RAW in Elements 8

Hi, I have just purchased and installed PSE 8. I've also got some tutorials on disc from a number of photography magazines as I am interested in editing photos using Camera RAW and PSE 8.
For some reason I cannot open and files with Camera RAW version 5.5. I have no idea how to update the software as I am new to this, does anyone know which version of Camera RAW I need to open files with a .DNG extension or .PEF (Pentax RAW) extension?
I have tried following the steps to open files in Camera RAW but they just open into PSE 8 Editor in which I cannot adjust things such as white balance.
This is becoming very frustrating and I am already regretting buying this program.
Hopefully someone out there has more experience and knowledge than me and can help?

What is your screen resolution on the computer you're running PSE8 on?
ACR requires a vertical screen resolution of 768. If you're on a small laptop or a normal-sized netbook, PSE will skip the ACR-user-interface and go directly into the editor.
The update for ACR will be on http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/ and choose Camera RAW - Windows/Mac at the top, and then after choosing the ACR version, the page that comes up should have a link for a PSE-specific install process. The text on the main ACR update page will have the Photoshop instructions so you have to look for a link for the PSE instructions. It should involve downloading a ZIP, extracting the files, and replacing the plug-in file manually.

Camera RAW Editing with Photoshop Elements 7.0

I am editing Canon Camera RAW format images with Photoshop Elements 7.0.
When I try to use the Clone Stamp option, an error message indicates that I need to change to 8 bit color to continue. I am also aware that some feel that 8 bit color is good enough. I would like to keep the 16 bit color.
Will upgrading to Photoshop Elements 8.0 allow me to keep 16 bit color?
Thanks
Bob AZ

No, as far as 16 bit support, pse8 is pretty much the same as pse7.
Pse9 is due out within a few months, so who knows whether more 16 bit support
will be added or not.

Does Camera Raw 6.3 work with Photoshop Elements 8

It looks like I can't
update Camera Raw to 6.3. since I use PSE8..is that true? I only update PSE every two
editions, but have both a Canon 550D and a new Powershot S95. Any advice?

Yes that's true, 6.3 won't work with pse8.
You can use the 6.3 dng converter to convert your camera raw files to
the dng format which pse8 can then open.

PSE 8 not opening CR2 after 6.2 camera raw update

I'm Running a MAC OSX 10.6.2 -
History of products.
PSE8 with CR 5.7 worked.
Lightroom 2.7 worked
Updated PSE 8 CR to 6.1 and PSE stopped opening with disk error message.
Lightroom still worked and Bridge was opening files.
Upgraded Lightroom to vs 3.
Upgraded CR 6.2 and lightroom works while PSE and Bridge fails to open raw images with message of
"can not complete your request due to a disk error."
Preview application opens and displays the raw images.
How I installed -
I removed cameraraw plugin from /PSE8 /file format/ folder. Installed the 6.2 Package from the DMG file and copied the plugin to the file format folder.
Restarted PSE - failed to open ,, restarted the machine the same.
What did I do Wrong?

t2go,
Below is the list of steps from the Adobe KB article for installing the Adobe Camera Raw plug-in 6.2 on PSE 8:

Launch Photoshop Elements 8 or Adobe Bridge CS5.
To install Camera Profiles, double-click CameraProfiles.mpkg and then follow the on-screen instructions

Can't go from Bridge/Camera Raw to Photoshop Elements 8

I originally installed trial version of photoshop CS4 and photoshop elements 8. I decided I liked elements better so that is what I purchased. I did fresh install off of purchased disk. I can launch bridge from within PSE8, then camera raw from Bridge, but can't Open into PSE8 from bridge or camera raw. I can open camera raw but when I finish and click "open" the file always tries to open into Photoshop CS4 (for which the trial is now expired).
I have updated to camera raw 5.7 and followed the instructions on the adobe site. I can tell the camera raw plug in is running from the CS4 library   Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats (deleted it there and it no longer worked) and not from Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-ins\Elements 8\File Formats.
Any suggestions on how to get my PSE8 to play nice with bridge and camera raw and run the camera raw plug in from my PSE8 file formats instead of CS4\file formats?

Yes I am using an Imac with snow leopard. Thank you for your help! I changed every file association I could in the bridge file associations from PS CS4 to Photoshop Elements.
Changing the file type association took care of the problem in bridge for .dng files as long as I open the dng file from bridge to photoshop elements (brings up camera raw which when click done returns me to elements).
The panasonic file association in bridge is .raw but my raw camera files are .rw2. Can't find that one in the associations of bridge. The fortunate thing is they do open from finder into preview (if that helps at all).
I can now work around this by changing them to .dng files, but that is kind of bulky.
Thanks again for your assistance.
