RAW files cannot be read?

I use LR 3.3 and recently it has stopped importing RAW files saying they cannot be read. I have been able to import them into iPhoto making me think the files are ok... any suggestions please????

I assume you're trying to import from the camera directly, or from the card via a card reader?
Try a card reader instead of importing from the camera directly
Try copying the files to local HD from outside of LR and import from there
Sometimes unreliable USB connections can lead to such symptoms.

  • I updated my itunes to 11 and found out my phone and ipod were not compatible. I uninstalled it and reinstalled 10.7 but now I get an error message when I try to open itunes saying "the file cannot be read because it was created by a newer verison"

    I updated my itunes to 11 and found out my phone and ipod were not compatible. I uninstalled it and reinstalled 10.7 but now I get an error message when I try to open itunes saying "the file cannot be read because it was created by a newer verison" What do I do?

    Thank you for clarify I'm supposed to read the ENTIRE article. I thought I was just supposed to read the title and magically everything will fix itself. I appreciate you taking the time to help me however I do not appreciate the caps and the way you have addressed the situation. If you are not going to kindly help people/make suggestions just don't try! And for the record my conclusions are not illogical, the iOS7 thing is on the website in small font (which I got by reading the ENTIRE thing) and you should really find a new hobby because your socialization skills need some help! That goes for you too Chris. Not everyone is a tech nerd

  • TS1363 I have an ipod shuffle, 7yrs old. Says I have an error and to re-install. Then it tells me, this file cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. I cannot find any newer version and don't recall downloading it anyway.

    Told to re-install itunes. When I do, it tells me "This file cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes." Therefore I can't re-install! Can't seem to find a way to get itunes back. This is a 8 yr old ipod shuffle...

    The latest version of iTunes can be downloaded here
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    As long as your computer supports it, the latest iTunes will work with all shuffle models, back the first one.
    Just one thing.  The latest iTunes hides the sidebar, which can be confusing for long-time users.  To show the sidebar, from the menu bar, under Views, select Show Sidebar.

  • Video files cannot be read in Adobe Presenter 10

    Errors
    When attempting to embed a video file (mp4 or WMV) with Adobe Presenter 10, the encode finishes (it doesn’t encode automatically, so it’s done manually), but an error displays (This file cannot be read), so the video is not displayed.
    Also, when creating a quiz, none of the text, aside from radio buttons and the Send button can be edited, such as the answers to the quiz.
    PC Environment
    ・windows7 professional 64Bit
    Software
    ・Microsoft PowerPoint2010 32Bit
    ・Adobe Presenter10 32Bit
    Question:
    Is there a way to solve either problem or know the cause of the errors?
    Thank you very much for your time.

    Your experience is better, than mine. I look after a website for a Electronics Servicing organization. I've created many PDF using Acrobat 3 - 7.0.7 (the older versions on OS9. I use OSX.3.9 on a G4-500 using 1.5 Gb of System RAM. And I uses OSX.4.5 on a PowerBook 17" using 2 GB of system RAM. Since switch to Acrobat 6 and then 7 I've never been able to have anyone view a PDF created in 6 or 7 Format. The File appears to be there and the file fize indicates it has content. Whether viewing on a PC or a Mac. If viewed on a PC all that is seen is a Blank page with no text, and if it had a graphic no graphic is shown. If however; the person on the other end happens to have Acrobat or Reader 6 they can view the Acrobat 6 Files. And If they have 7 they can see the 6 and 7 files as well as anything below. However; most of the PC viewers I deal with still use Acrobat or Reader 5. Its these viewers I find that can't view the files. I've noticed also that when you do getinfo on a Acro/Reader, or 7 File created on my computer that in the thumbnail preview, all you see is the Acrobat A symbol, or a Blank thumbnail. Opening in 7 they can be viewed. Opening in 5 (I still have a OS9 Drive and e.5.0.5 installed) all I get is a Blank page no text and no Graphics if any in the content. SO every since 6 and 7 have come out I've had to save, then optimize for Acrobat 5 in order for my readers to see the pdf's.

  • CS4 saved .tif files cannot be read by other programs

    I recently upgraded Photoshop from CS2 to CS4 (11.0.1).
    If I use CS4 to save a large multi-layered Photoshop .psd file as .tif (Layer/Flatten image/Discard hidden layers),  (File/Save as .tif, LZW, Interleaved, IBM PC) the resultant .tif file cannot be read by many other programs.
    File viewers (Faststone, MS Paint, QT Picture Viewer, Windows Photo Gallery) either fail to display the images, display the images incorrectly, or display a black screen.
    Neat Image fails to open the files due to incorrect bit depth. 
      (Faststone shows the bit depth as 40 bits).
    PTLens fails to open the files with the dialog "Only RBG images are supported".
    This has become a significant problem, since I routinely distribute images to others as .tif files.
    Similar Photoshop CS2 saved .tif files open with all the above viewers/programs with no problems. (no longer have CS2 installed)
    Any workaround???
    Thanks

    What color mode is the image?
      RGB color
    What bit depth?
      8 bits/channel
    Does the image include transparency?
      no
    Does the image have any alpha channels?
      no
    How large is the file on disk? (most apps won't read files over 2 Gig)
      165MB

  • PREINST.SWM recovery file cannot be read

    Hi
    My L300D series laptop got a pretty bad virus last month. To be safter I would like to reinstall my Vista. I did not have a recovery partition and did not have a set of recovery CDS that I could find for the laptop. After browsing the forums I decided it was best that I ordered a set directly from toshiba. After a week it finally arrived this thursday.
    I began installation as usual and it was doing fine for the first 5 mins and then it gave me the
    "PREINST.SWM recovery file cannot be read" error. I tried it click retry almost half a dozen times but nothing happend. all i get is the
                         Cannot read from source file or disk. PREINST.SWM
                          Type SWM file
                         Size 624 MB
                         Date modified 3/1/2007 2:30 PM.
    So i read further on the forums and I tried a few other options...
    What I have tried:
    1. Boot the Recovery disc or HDD image and select System Recovery Options.
     2. Follow the prompts until you get to the menu and then select a command prompt.
     3. Copy the \zzimages\zzimages directory for all recovery discs to a temp directory on the hard drive (c:\temp). 4. Change to the Bin directory on the first recovery disc and run "tosimagex /apply c:\temp\preinst.swm 1 c:\ /ref c:\temp\preinst*.swm" without the quotes.
    D:\BIN>tosimagex /apply c:\temp\preinst.swm 1 c:\ /ref c:\temp\preinst*.swm
    WIM File: c:\temp\preinst.swm(1)
    Dst File: c:\
    App Name: /ref
    Total Parts: 10
    Add splited image: c:\temp\preinst2.swm
    Add splited image: c:\temp\preinst3.swm
    Add splited image: c:\temp\preinst4.swm
    .\TixRestore.cpp(71): Error FC060002
    but when i try and copy the file it gives me a cyclic redundacy error. My next attempt was to place the DVD toshiba shipped me on another computer and try and extract and burn the preinst.swm into another CD so i can copy it to the drive.. but that is the only file that wont copy of the cd.. and crashes my explorer in windows 7...
    Now toshiba told me it was a hardware issue.. and my warrantly is over.. adn that i should ge the cd drive fixed.. to which i said.. the CD drive worked last week.. I installed adobe from it.. and the harddrive works just fine.. recent scan had no bad sectors and is more than capable of runnin Linux..from a partition..they had no answer and I havnt heard from them again although i was told they would contact me. I need the laptop ready in the next day or two as spring break is over.
    Any suggestions???

    I have a Satellite L300D also. I too have a corrupt file on my Vista 64-bit Home Premium restore DVD volume 1 of 2 and have nuked my restore partition. BUT my problem file is a different file than yours. Perhaps we can swap missing files and rebuild and reburn our DVD's? You can contact me directly via email using my username and then append @hotmail.com on the end. I would be happy to help you out and give you PREINST.SWM if you can give me PREINST2.SWM in return. We can do this via FTP, Dropbox or filesharing...whatever you wish. Paying Toshiba $45 for DVD's they should have included for free really bothers me...

  • I am having problems with  Olympus .orf files one files cannot be read by Elements 10 and Lightroom 4. Both provide an error message saying that the file is not recognized. Any ideas?  minzen

    i am having problems with  Olympus .orf  which cannot be read by Elements 10 and Lightroom 4. Both provide an error message saying that the file is not recognized. Any ideas?  minzen

    That camera model is too new for your programs. Every camera has its own raw format and ACR must be updated to include the info for each new model as it comes out. The workaround would be to download the free Adobe DNG converter and use that to convert your ORFs to DNGs that your version of Camera Raw can read.

  • Hijack of RAW files by PDF reader

    suddenly this evening all my raw files got Acrobat logo.
    on the 'open with' panel I was unable to choose Photoshop, but if I go to PS I can locate and open the file.
    I cannot choose Photoshop on the "open with" panel for any file (jpeg,tiff, arw)
    I had downloaded a reader update a few days ago, but no trouble for those few days.
    I run CC 2014, on Win 7 Ultimate with all updates, and Norton 360.
    Thanks

    I maybe off the mark but...
    Right click on the file
    Select open with
    Select more programs/choose default
    Select browse
    Navigate (browse) to PS location under 'programs'
    Highlight PS Excecutable
    Click open
    make sure 'use as default' box is checked
    click ok.
    Unless you have some type of other problems this should do it and PS will reappear in the 'default program' list.

  • Some pdf files cannot be read by eReaders other than Acrobat

    I have several books in pdf format.  All, including the attached, read perfectly in Acrobat and all, except the attached, read perfectly in various eReaders.  The attached file, however, cannot be read by any reader other than Acrobat and cannot be imported into Calibre and converted to any other format.
    What is unique about this file?
    I can not find any way to attach the file.  Please post instructions.
    Using Windows 8, Adobe Reader X 10.1.8,

    You cannot attach PDF files to the forum, only images (e.g. screen shots) and not at all in an email reply.
    To share a PDF put it on acrobat.com, your own web site, or a file sharing site, and reply with the URL.
    What does Adobe Reader X say for Document Security (under File > Properties)? The SECURITY METHOD is the key information. You are quite correct that some PDF files use security methods which lock them to Acrobat.

  • ITunes library file cannot be read

    Hi there
    I opened my iTunes library on another mac with iTunes 11. When I open my iTunes library with iTunes 10 on the mac where I had it in the first place it says: "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version if iTunes. Would you like to download iTunes now?" The only problem is that I haven't got Mac OSX 10.6 yet so i can't install iTunes 11. How can I make it work again without buying the new OSX. Please help
    Regards Fabian

    Hi Fabian,
    Ouch, I'm not aware of a way to now open it with an older iTunes!

  • How to import RAF format raw photos taken by Fujifilm X-T1 to Lightroom 4.4? RAF raw files cannot be recognised by Lightroom 4.4

    Fujifilm X-T1 is on the list of cameras with RAW file format supported by Lightroom, but I fail to import the RAF raw format photos taken by Fujifilm X-T1 to Lightroom 4.4 with the error message "Lightroom can't process the RAW files".  Is there a way to fix it?

    Fujifilm X-T1 is on the list of cameras with RAW file format supported by Lightroom,
    It is but Raw support varies depending on the version of Lightroom. Newer versions have more Camera Raw support than older versions.
    The column on the right hand side says "Minimum Lightroom version required" for the Fuji X-T1 is 5.4.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Raw support is never added to older versions of LR retrospectively so Lightroom 4.4 will never be able to read X-T1 Raw files.
    Your choices:
    Pay to upgrade to Lightroom 5, or
    Download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all X-T1 Raw files to DNG format then edit the DNGs in Lightroom 4.4
