RAW file into jpg image

I am exploring the wonderful world of RAW photography processing. I have come across an issue that I cannot find an answer to. After doing all the image adjustments, how do I save it as a jpg file? The only option I see is to save it as a dng file or to open it in PSE10 editor. But then what? I have tried to "safe as" from Editor but it does not give me a jpg option.

Thanks to each of you for your comments.
juergen, I had noticed that setting but did not know I needed to change it. Thanks.
photodrawken, I need jpg because I am a member of several sites that specifically call for jpg images. I also share my pictures with extended family who cannot use RAW or PSE files. They could use png files but they would face the same issue when they go to upload them. They do not have software to change them to jpg.
dj, I have enough memory (for now at least) that I can save both. I will not be changing all of them but when I need, it is good to know how to do it.
Again, thank you,
Jim

Photoshop cc is turning my raw files into jpg after editing

photoshop is turning my raw files into jpg after editing with out flatten the layers instead of psd files. when I go to save they are jpg. This started 2 days ago - no problems before that

How are you doing the save? Just choosing File - Save?
Photoshop remembers the last "master file" format you saved something in. If the current document is capable of being saved in that format, it will default to that format for the next save.
What happens if you do the following:
1. Open your raw file, and edit it.
2. File - Save As, and in the Save as type field choose Photoshop (*.PSD;*.PDD).
3. Complete the save operation.
I'm betting that will result in your having saved a PSD format file.
In summary, change your habit to use File - Save As to save your master document and you can't go wrong.

Want to convert tif image file into jpg image file , pls help me

hey coders, i want to convert a tif image file into a jpg image file , can u all help in this

In it's simplest form, it's two lines of code.
BufferedImage bi = ImageIO.read(/*the tif file*/);
ImageIO.write(bi,"jpeg",/*output file*/);Though, you need to install [JAI-ImageIO|https://jai-imageio.dev.java.net/binary-builds.html] read the tif file into a BufferedImage.

IPhoto has turned all my RAW files into JPG :(

When I had to restore my iPhoto library, everything but the last import is now a jpeg. There are a few pictures that are now giving me an "!" when I try to edit them. Does iPhoto effectively destroy your photos when you restore them from a backup, or even editing them?
I have changed Image Capture to put the files into a folder now, but what do I need to get to get iPhoto from messing up my files?

Using Time Machine through a wireless connection. Tell me where I went wrong in setting this up.

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents. Again suggests that you either messed up the back up or the restore.
Again, using TimeMachine for backup and restore.

iPhoto does not "effectively destroy your photos" in any circumstance.
When you import a photo to iPhoto that Original file is preserved exactly as it was when you imported it. It is not changed in any way. Edits are carried put on copies. So, as I say above, you need to clarify what you did to back up and restore to discover where you've gone wrong.
but what do I need to get to get iPhoto from messing up my files?
iPhoto doesn't. You need to learn how to use it?
Been using it for years, never had a problem with it until now. Do you have classes that you teach on the proper way to use iPhoto?

Viewinging RAW files as thumbnail images when opening from Photoshop - not working?

I have just installed Photoshop CC on my new Windows 8.1 OS computer and when I try to open one of my RAW files into Photoshop from the Photoshop 'open file' menu item I can only see file icons rather than the thumbnail pictures that are in the folders? I can view the thumbnails just fine from Bridge but not when opening directly from Photoshop? I can view all jpg's but no RAW files (both Canon and Sony RAW). I tried installing the Microsoft Camera Codec for Windows 8.1 but it won't install - error message says "not intended for this operating system" in spite of the fact that it explicitly states it is for Windows 8.1? Any ideas on what to do to be able to view the thumbnail images?
Thanks in advance.

How to export the same mb size of my cr2 files into jpg or tiff files in Lr?

How to export the same mb size of my cr2 files into jpg or tiff files in Lr?
Let's say my file size is 22mb, when i export the file to tiff or jpg, although Iam careful with the settings- file size, dimension, resolution, I can't manioukate how I want it.
With jpg I tried everything, no matter what i do or change in files size or resoltion it remains the same size- 7mb as opposed to 22..
Please advise,
Best wishes,
T

I would noramlly opt for a tiff file, sending such a high res through the nest a nightmare
This is probably just an improper use of terminology, but the resolution of a JPG, DNG and TIF should all be the same.
The files differ in size, not resolution and not number of pixels.
Jpg is not that bad, but its a pitty they have to be edited under a jpg format..
Your raws are edited as raw. There is no loss of quality in the editing process. The files are then exported as JPG, which will cause a loss of quality. For just about any use, the loss of quality in the image when you export a JPG at quality level 12 is NOT noticeable. For many uses, exporting a JPG at a quality level of 8 will not be noticeable either, unless you intend to print the photo at a very large size. As twenty_one (not his real name) said, "Jpeg compression is fantastically effective".

How can I process a Sony A7 RAW file into Photoshop CS5.

How can I process a Sony A7 RAW file into Photoshop CS5. I tried the file DNG converter 8.3, but it did not work. I was able to download it, but upon reading the memory chip from Photoshop CS5, it reads the jpg files fine, but not the RAW files. I thought the DNG converter 8.3 was the right file, but apparently it is not. Perhaps I need to do something in Photoshop CS5 to initiate it, or place it in a particular directory.. Please help.

First of all, you should have used the Adobe DNG Converter 8.6, not an old, obsolete version. Always use the very latest version. 8.3 was simply the first ACR version to support your camera model, that's all.
Note that the DNG Converter works only on folders, not on individual raw files. Put all your Sony raw files in a folder and run the Converter on that folder containing the raw files.
I have absolutely no clue as to what on Earth you mean by : "upon reading the memory chip from Photoshop CS5".
You also need to make sure that CS5 is fully updated. You cannot rely on the highly and notoriously unreliable Adobe auto updater to tell whether you have the latest update installed or not.
I still have no idea what platform you are on, Mac or Windows. Please read the following for next time:
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster).
A screen shot could be very helpful too.

Opening RAW file into Camera Raw (help please)

Hi,
Brand new to Photoshop (free trial started 2 days ago) and am having significant difficulties with overall program. One major issue is the ability to open my photos into the Camera Raw program. One tutorial mentions to right click and convert it to Smart Object in order to launch the program but this does not seem to work for me. It merely adds a small image into the corner and becomes a "Smart Object Thumbnail". I don't use Bridge (heck, I don't even know what Bridge is!) and am merely opening up a file into Photoshop directly.
My images are in a raw format, does that make a difference? Do photos have to be in jpegs to use that program?
Thanks.

Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its very long and steep learning curve.
Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) requires a lot of reading to master.
Raw files should automatically open in ACR when you double-click on them. ACR can be hosted either by Photoshop or by Adobe Bridge, and the respective application will launch when you double click on the raw file and present you with your file open in ACR.
The purpose of ACR is to convert the raw file into something you can see and use. Raw files are very, very dark gray-scale images with nothing a human eye can discern as color.
Forget about "Smart Objects" for now, that is something you will only be able to understand or use until you are proficient with Photoshop, many months or a couple of years from now if you are truly dedicated and take a Photoshop course at a community college near you.
You cannot open a raw file in Photoshop directly. It has to be converted in ACR first.

Problems pulling RAW files into Photoshop.

I use Photoshop CS3. When I pull my RAW files into it I lose a lot of information. For example I took a picture of my black dog. I set the camera (Canon 40d) to save the file and both RAW and high res JPG. When I pull both files directly into photoshop the JPG has more detail information in the highlights and shadows than the JPG file does. This should be the reverse. To see if the problem was in the file or in the process of pulling it into photoshop I also pulled it in through Lightroom. And I used Zoom Browser (software that came with my camera). Zoom Browser forced me to convert to a TIFF before importing it to Photoshop. I'll try attaching a file I made that shows the results of each.
My conclusion is that there is not a problem with the CR2 file, since the CR2 file converted to the TIFF has the most detail, but something is happening when I import it into photoshop. I just don't know what settings I should be looking at to fix this problem. Any help would be appreciated.
Here's a link to the example:
http://www.reflections-etc.com/problem_with_RAW.jpg
Thanks

Sorry, you did state the camera model and ACR 4.6 is fine for it . Nothing wrong there!
Without wishing to dodge the isssue, I suggest you take it to the ACR forum where the real experts on that aspect of Photoshop are.

How do I not import RAW files into iPhoto

I shoot RAW + Jpeg with my cameras... Up until a recent upgrade to Mavericks... I would put the SD card in the iMac and it would import all the JPEGs, and then say something like 75 files could not be downloaded.
Those were the large RAW files and I would then just move them to an External Hard-drive and use Lightroom and Canon's DPP to edit them.
After the OS upgrade the RAW and JPEGs now both import into iPhoto and onto the Mac Hard-drive.
I can't seem to find a way to not import the RAW file into iPhoto. Is there something I am missing? I do not want those large RAW files wasting space on the mac, and I have notice iPhoto is really slow since the upgrade.
Thanks for any help

A. To move an iPhoto Library:
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
B. iPhoto and Raw
1. The Raw processing engine in iPhoto the same one used in Aperture, but with less fine control. (Think of the differences between Word and TextEdit, iMovie and Final Cut).
2. Processing Raw in a 3rd Party Application
You can also process your Raw with a 3rd Party app like ACR or Photoshop. But iPhoto does not handle this gracefully and it's a bit of a kludge.
First off set your preferred app as an external editor in iPhoto:
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
Note that iPhoto sends a copy+ of the file to Photoshop, so when you save be sure to use the Save command, not Save As... If you use Save As then you're creating a new file and iPhoto has no way of knowing about this new file. iPhoto is preserving your original anyway.
Next: In the iPhoto Preferences -> Advanced, elect to use Raw with your External editor:
Now when you go to edit the Raw it will be sent to your external editor.
Now for the kludge:
You cannot save a Raw. The work you do must be output to a new file, in a new format (jepg, tiff, whatever). However, as the External Editor is making this new file iPhoto has no knowledge of its existence. Therefore you must save it to the desktop and then import it back to iPhoto as a new file.
This means that you will have your Original Raw and the processed version in iPhoto but they will not be recognised as version and original. iPhoto will see them as two separate shots.
Further - and this is quite a consideration: Lightroom is not an editor. Like iPhoto it's a database app and images need to be imported, processed and exported from it. It occupies the same place in the workflow (manager/non-destructive processing) as iPhoto does so in makes zero sense to use both...

I can't import raw files into lightroom

I have been using lightroom 4. I shoot with a nikon d300s. I recently used a nikon D610 and now it says preview not available. It also says the the raw images aren't able to import. So I recently upgraded to Lightroom 5 and it still says preview not available. I need some suggestions on how to import them.

I don't use nikon software. I just use lightroom. I just got lightroom 5. I tried to update to 5.3 but couldn't find the location where to find it.

Converting RAW-file to jpg in Photoshop Elements 13?

In Photoshop Elements 13, I can't convert my RAW-file to jpg? The only format to choose from is dng? Why is so. Why I cannot find jpg file format anywhere?

Is there a way to import Raw files into LR catalog ..including..any edits performed in an external raw file editor such as Capture One?

Is there a way to import Raw files into LR catalog ..including..any edits performed in an external raw file editor such as Capture One?
I can import the Raw file successfully but cannot see any edits that were applied in Capture One. Im assuming no but just checking.

Your assumption is correct, Capture One, Lightroom and other third party raw processors have their own proprietary processes and profiles for rendering the raw data.
They do not make permanent changes to the raw data and store the changes to an .xmp file or to a catalog file like Lightroom.

Why can't I download Canon S100 CR2 RAW files into PSE 10?

I am using PSE 10 with a Canon S100 camera. I am successful in downloading all of my jpeg files and RAW CR2 files from my older Canon Rebel, but not with the Canon S100 CR2 Raw files.
When first downloading from the Canon S100 camera into PSE 10 and later doing them manually, I receive the following messages: Nothing imported...files are not supported file types or alread in catalog. File damaged or in a format that cannot be included in the Elements Organizer.
These problems files, by the way, were automatically added to my Window's My Pictures catalog and are perfectly fine.

Thank you for the info. It worked great, once I was
able to get around a second problem that prevented updating
from within the PSE 10 application (error U41M1C212). That
problem was solved by disabling the MS Virtual WiFi Miniport
Adapter (located in the Network and Sharing Center control
panel). It just goes to show me once again, how complex
computer apps are and how much we all have to rely on each
other to get anything to work properly (frustratingly
enough, since the companies we paid good money to for
their problematic software are not very helpful). Thanks
again.

Try opening a CR2 directly from a folder by right-clicking
and choosing open with Photoshop Elements editor, if that
dosent work, update the appliactaion (required for the
S100V)
In the Editor menu click Help >> Updates
Then install amera raw 6.7
