RAW (.cr2) files only display as icons in Bridge CS3?

Hi
Can anyone help please to help get my thumbnails back in Bridge CS3?! They used to show okay, but for a while they haven't. It just a pain when trying to sort through shots I've taken in RAW!
Weirdly, they show fine on my home Mac, but on my work Mac I just get the icon – but both are running the same software (CS3), just different OS versions (10.6 at home, 10.4 at work - which shouldn't make a difference?). They also won't show in the preview pane when you select it – you have to open it to see it.
I've updated to the most recent CR plug-in that CS3 willl allow, purged the thumbnail cache... nothing working so far. Other files show up fine. I've looked at the other posts, but most of those seem to be CS4/5, and remedied by the plug-in update...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
Ben

Okay! Fixed now... after a little more digging, it turns out I wasn't putting the CR plug-in into the root folder....
Schoolboy error....
Thanks anyway!

  • RAW CR2 files from my Canon G11 not displaying thumbnails in SL finder. Why

    I just loaded some CR2 RAW files from my Canon G11 last night. They displayed perfectly in iPhoto 09 but when I opened the folder the image files are in SL's finder I got icon placeholders which but no image icon display. I have loaded all the latest updates... Is SL no yet compatible with G11 RAW Cr2 files? Or do I not have something set up correctly as of yet?

  • Import screen cannot enlarge preview thumbnail from Canon G15 raw CR2 file

    Lightroom 4.3 import screen does not seem to be able to enlarge for better viewing  the preview thumbnail from a Canon G15 raw CR2 file?

    HI,
    I do not know the answer, but I would expect, that Lr only displays the embeded jpeg preview of your raw files. And I think, that the previews are small. You can use exiftool , exiftoolgui to see what's the dimension of your previews.

  • IPhoto '09 not importing Camera Raw (.CR2) files

    Recently purchased a new Mac Pro and tried to import my Camera Raw files from a supported camera. iPhoto refuses to import (unrecognized file format) files. Does anyone know the solution? I have over 1,700 camera raw (.CR2) files I need to import.

    Larry,
    Cameras were Canon 20D and 50D. Until yesterday both were using the sRAW color space - switched them to Adobe RAW today. Problem was the 1,700 pictures with sRAW colorspace taken over the past few years - no issue importing into Adobe Photoshop CS4 (not surprising at it uses its own libraries), problem was only with iPhoto. I had what iPhoto reported as the latest update to Camera Raw, however when I browsed the Apple support pages I found v3.0 which I installed. That fixed the problem as it now has sRAW support for Canon cameras.
    Only issue that remains is importing of DNG formatted pictures. iPhoto will not import those, which is hard to understand as it is becoming the defacto cross platform format for RAW files.
    I don't recall having this issue on my older MacBook using an older version of iPhoto and older libraries...
    Anyway, good news is that v3.0 fixed the problem.
    Thanks.

  • Why has LR4 suddenly started to refuse to download RAW CR2 files?

    Today I went to LR4 and tried to import RAW CR2 files into the program using the usual import process which is pretty automatic. I also asked that copies be saved as DNG files. No matter what I tried, I got an error message saying that the files could not be imported. I use a Canon 5D Mark III. The only difference in today's shoot was that I used and HDSC card instead of a CF card. No other obvious changes. Clearly, this is a serious concern. What amI missing?

    Hi,
    I too have been having trouble importing CR2s consistently using Lightroom 4.3. I use a Canon 5D Mark III with Macbook OS X 10.7.
    Spoke with Canon this morning and apparently they are getting a few calls about this problem. For me, it is not a permissions issue.
    I swapped cards, cords, reinstalled Lightroom and updated everything. I bought a card reader and that is the only thing that works.
    Seems to be some kind of communication problem between Lightroom (4.3) and my Canon 5D M3.

  • How to open Camera RAW (CR2) files in Photoshop CS3 and CS4? (Mac)

    I have a Canon 7D. I prefer to shoot in raw format, but the CR2 files cannot be opened by either Photoshop CS3 on my Mac in the office OR by Photoshop CS4 on my iMac at home.
    I have tried dowloading the Adobe DNG Coverter and Camera Raw 4.6 update (which is SUPPOSEDLY intended to work for CS3) and followed the instructions to replace the plug-in. STILL a no-go. CS3 STILL tells me "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file."
    What gives? Does anyone know of a way to get CR2 files to open in Photoshop CS3 or CS4? (A way that actually works?) Because Adobe's plug-in update doesn't seem to do it, and Canon's "fine-grain" editing controls for raw images is pretty lack-luster.
    Thanks (in advance)!

    Have you tried opening up out of Bridge? If that doesn't work you may new need to download a new driver from Canon. All my peripherals are Canon and I am always having to download new drivers everytime I update. Fortunatly they are really easy to find on Canon's site.

  • HELP! Cannot open Canon RAW (CR2) file in PP5.5.2 (Mac)

    Hi folks.
    I cannot import RAW (CR2) files (Canon 5D2) files into premiere pro 5.5.2!
    I can get them into After Effects (through cameraraw) but PP does not even show them as a "supported file type"
    If I drag and drop from the finder I get "unsupported file type" error
    My understanding is that CR2 files are supported in CS5.5
    Any ideas
    MacBook Pro OS X 10.7.2 (Lion)
    For the rest, everything seems to be "normal"
    Thanks in Advance

    To use Camera RAW, you will need to process the files through a Camera RAW converter. With the proper ACR module, PS, and Lightroom will handle that processing, as will the Canon utility. With Adobe ACR, make sure to update to a version that handles YOUR camera's RAW files - mfgrs. tweak those model to model, so keeping the ACR module current will insure that you can handle the particular Camera RAW files properly.
    I agree with Stephen's rec. to NOT use JPEG, if ultimate quality is of a concern. In PS, I just process my Nikon, Panny or Canon Camera RAW files to PSD. I would assume that the Canon utility would have the option for TIFF, as my older one does - there is no option for PSD in it. Do not know about the newer Canon Camer RAW processing, but TIFF should be just fine.
    Good luck,

  • Adobe photoshop elements 11 won't read my canon T5 raw CR2 files.

    adobe photoshop elements 11 won't read my canon T5 raw CR2 files.
    why?
    need help!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi Zach.
    Sorry to say but Elements 12 came out several months before your camera. Adobe stops updating camera raw files for old software editions so that people have to buy new versions of the software when they get a new camera. It happened to me with LR3 when I got a new camera.
    There are works rounds but they are a lot of extra steps and I think you would be converting the files to Some format other than RAW (tiff?) and which I am not sure will perform the same.
    I think you just need to get a newer version of Elements.

  • Can't open Camera Raw (CR2) files in Photoshop CS3?

  • How do I import raw CR2 files from camera into LR5? I get an error message

    I'm trying to import raw CR2 files from my camera into LR5. I get a message "Files appear to be unsupported or damaged." I know they are not damaged. Does LR5 support raw files? I can do this in Bridge and it converts them to dng files. This would be ideal for me if both could be done in LR5.

    Not sure what the problem is if you say the files re recognized in Bridge? You could test the CR2 files by downloading the free Adobe DNG converter - latest version 8.6 (keep your CR2 originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)and then import the DNG’s. It’s an extra step but I use it all the time to batch process into final folders.
    Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.6
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.6
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • Camera Raw .CR2 file download failure from new Canon650D

    I have the new model Canon650D and cannot download Camera Raw CR2 files into Photoshop Elements 10. I get a "program error" message on screen. I have tried converting to DNG files but get same error message. I have downloaded latest upgrades for Camera Raw plug-ins in Adobe Application Manager and evidently have the latest 6.7 version available. Is there a later upgrade or do I have to wait until Adobe catch up?

    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) Try a differnt download (7.3 the latest) if DNG did not work before.
    Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.3
    Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.3

    My CS6 and Bridge don't recognize the raw CR2 files from my Canon 5D mark III. Everything is updated, I downloaded the latest plug in, what should my next step be to fix this? Thank you.

    What operating system are you running:  Win Vista/7/8 OSX 10.7/8/9.x?
    You do need ACR 7.1 or higher for the 5D.3, so the issue is to get a newer ACR plug-in installed.
