RAW files -- Program Error with Photo Elements 12

When I open RAW (Nikon D7000 NEF file) files it tells me it cannot complete my request due to a program error. What can I do to fix this? If I try to open the same file a second time, it will open it. I'm running Windows 8.1.

Also you could try optimizing the catalog from Organizer:
File >> Manage Catalogs
Select you current catalog and click the button to Optimize
The process also optimizes the thumbnails which may help.

Is there a way to keep images as RAW files when editing with Photo Shop ???

The drawback I find with aperture is that when using photoshop as editor I cannot keep my raw files. They are converted to TIFFS...Is there a way that I can keep them in Raw????? Thanks!!

Your original RAW files are still there in your Aperture library in your pictures folder. Or on an external hard drive if you are referencing them.... They are never touched, you are editing a 'version' of your original RAW file.
When you export to PS Aperture creates a new 'version' of the original and exports that to PS. The file format that it returns to Aperture as, from PS, is controlled by you in Aperture preferences... > Export Tab > External Editor file format....
You can have your pictures in the format you choose. But your original RAW's are untouched.
Regards..... Gerry..

Program Errors with Photoshop since loading Mavericks

Ever since I loaded Mavericks I can not open or save files in Photoshop. I keep getting a program error. Photo shop does can not recognize my folders and just "blinks" and does nothing. I can not go to file open and open a file. I can not save to folders. All I can do is drag what I want to open on to the Photoshop icon. It will open then, but I can't save it to any folder.
So far Mavericks is not worth the upgrade.

I had this problem too. Spent 8 hours (i'm stubborn) uninstalling and reinstalling Photoshop 5.1. Nothing worked.
I tried the update Java that was touted on another Apple forum. Still got the same error.
Grrr...
I posted my problem on Adobe's help forum with the log file, and was told it is a problem with the OS.
I did a Time Machine back up, plus a full copy of my hard drive to an external drive, and ran the Maverick reinstall per Apple Support directions.
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13871
After the reinstall, the Java update screen splashed and I ran the update. This time Java worked, and Photoshop opened. Although, Adobe swore the Java update is bogus, because Photoshop doesn't use Java (duh, I know). But other Adobe programs that run on the web do, and there is where I believe the bug lies festering.
Anyway. Reinstall Maverick and see if Photoshop will finally work for you.
Cheers!

Cannot open nikon raw files from my 3200 in elements 8

i cannot open nikon raw files from my 3200 in elements 8

You would need PSE11 since the 3200 requires ACR version 7.1
Only PSE11 can have 7.1, so to be able to use your raw files with PSE9 you should download the free Adobe DNGconverter which can batch convert a whole folder of raw files into the Adobe raw DNG format which your PSE8 can open.

Canon 7d mark II raw files open error

Photoshop elements 12 will not open the canon 7d mark II raw files, from what I read elements are not going to upgrade there camera profiles anymore, so anything new your just out of luck? The support people have no clue.

Faq:
FAQ: Will Photoshop Elements work with my camera, or Why won't my raw files open?
more specifically:
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
in which you find that your camera requires the ACR 8.7 version
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
in which you see that PSE12 can't, and that PS13 can with an update.
So what solution, since Adobe does not upgrade older versions? It's the free Adobe DNGconverter:
Use the latest version of the free DNG Converter (for Macintosh or Windows)
You can convert your files to the universaly compatible DNG format (the files will work with any version of the Camera Raw plug-in). See In depth : Digital Negative (DNG) for more information.
This standalone utility lets you batch convert whole folders of raw files to the DNG raw format that your PSE12 can read.

Can CS5 be used with Photo elements 9?

Can CS5 be used with Photo Elements 9?

Well, they are separate programs. Not sure what specifically you are looking for. Of course PS CS5 can function as an advanced editor for images, but beyond that they don't interact.

Am I able to convert RAW files to jpegs on Photoshop Elements?

Am I able to convert RAW files to jpegs on Photoshop Elements?

Hi,
Sorry, but with the information you have given, the only answer I can give is "possibly".
Each camera model produces a slightly different raw format - even different models by the same manufacturer and even if they have the same extension (file type). The latest cameras will not be supported by older versions of Photoshop Elements although there is a converter which can help.
To give you a better answer, we need to know
1) The camera make and model
2) The version of Photoshop Elements that you are using
3) The operating system that you are running on.

Open the same raw file in PS5 with two different White Balance settings

I'm trying to open the same Raw File in PS5 with two different White Balance settings. One setting "as shot" the other in "daylight", then blend them. The tutorial I'm watching says to "stack" the images. The tutorial shows one White Balance setting as the "Background" layer and the other setting as "Layer 1". I don't know how to do this and the tutorial is not specific. Can anyone either point me to a step by step instruction or offer some assistance?

Also look at the "Snapshots" feature of Camera Raw itself. It allows you non-destructively to keep multiple sets of settings for a single raw file.
Learning about it far exceeds the scope of what can be done in this particular forum. I would recommend this book as essential reading:
http://www.amazon.com/Real-World-Camera-Adobe-Photoshop/dp/0321713095/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&q id=1313502199&sr=8-1
Additionally, there's a dedicated Adobe Camera Raw forum:

Could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error" with PS CC 2014

I get "Could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error" with PS CC 2014 on a 2099 Macbook Pro running Mavericks. Then the program closes. Can anyone help?

Could be corrupt preferences, a problem with the OS font cache, or some other problem with the OS.
First, try resetting the preferences.

Can I import and open raw files on the new photo app?

Hi,
Can I import and open raw files on the new photos app on my ipad? Does it convert it to jpeg automatically when you want to share them?
Thanks.

Clem is telling you to click on the View menu, move the pointer down to the item "Metadata," & from its choices make sure "Show Titles" is selected. Do this, then make sure you are in a view in the main window that shows one or more videos (or whatever) that you want to title. Click once on one of them, & if the separate Info window is not open, open that (on the Windows menu or command + i as a keyboard shortcut). In the Info window the top line will be "Add a Title."
Click once on that & type your title.
This works for any item, video or photo.

Photoshop Raw File Import Error

I'm using CS6 and Photoshop will not open Raw Files. I've updated to the most recent Raw plugin as well as photoshop. I'm running it on a Mac with Yosemite. Is there a solution to importing raw files to photoshop with this set-up.

Thanks Gene.
If I use file> open it reads: "Photoshop cannot open this file. If you are attempting to open a raw file from a digital camera, make sure you have the latest Camera Raw update installed via Help > Updates... If the problem persists, visit the following link for more information"
I do have Bridge CS6. It is version 5.0.0.399
Photoshop is version 13.0.
ACR is 7.0 which sounds like an issue. however when I go to update it says it's already updated.
Thanks for the help.

HT1338 My fuji x100s has RAW file compatibility issue with OS 10.8.2

My fuji x100s has RAW file compatibility issue with OS 10.8.2, my iphoto11 cannot recognise the file format. Anyone know of this issue too? Appreciate if anyone can offer some helps. Thanks

Correct. The Fuji X-100s is not currently supported by iPhoto or Aperture (or the RAW converter in OS X itself). You can submit feedback via iPhoto and request this.

RAW files will not open in Elements 8

I downloaded and installed several actions for elements8 this afternoon. I also downloaded a couple intended for photoshop that were self installing. I clicked on landscap_and_sky_action_by_fcpr,rar. I thought It would open and I could install the action like the others. Apparently, it self-installed as if\t was supposed to( just in the woring program.) Some little time after that I tried to home a new RAW file downloaded from my camera. I got the error message, cannot open (file name and full path) because it is the wrong type of file.
I have tried to open the raw files with file open and file open as specifiying that the file is a raw file.
I also tried to open an older RAW file with the same results (previously open before today.)
This is the first time I have had this problem. I have been using RAW files for the last year and half without any problems.
My best guess is that rar file corrupted a file somewhere, but I have no clue where.
lastly, I uninstalled elements 8 and reinstalled it. Same problem. I did note that when uninstalling elements, it does not erase the directories and many of the files. I have hestiated doing that as I have a massive set of photos in the Organizer, have updated the RAW Camera database (worked fine after that) and added several features (effects) to elements.
Any suggestions on a fix.

I removed the pior ACR and renamed it in case I needed it before installing the new one. The new one has been working for a year+ without any problems. This is a brand new problem.
I think I have found the problem. I installed Optikverve's Vitural Photographer yesterday. I thought it was a stand alone like the studio. I found that it installed inside Elements. That was just prior to Elements starting to refuse to open RAW files. Everything else (that I have checked ) seems to work fine. That says to me that program is the problem.
I have just finished a negative virus scan on the computer and I am getting ready to back up Organizer to an external hard drive. I am going then to remove Elements and wipe out out the files and directory structure that remains. I will then install Elements. That should put it back at "as new" state. I will have reinstall the new ACR files and the other addons. At least, it should work again. (I hope.)

Transcoding Error with Premiere Elements 7

I have worked with Lightroom and with Photoshop Elements, and I am now trying to use Premiere Elements (7) to create a project of video clips and stills from my Canon DSLR. I can create a DVD with eleven video clips (although it will not play on my old-ish DVD player, just on my computer), but when I add 18 JPEGs (generated from RAW files), I get a "transcoding error" when I try to burn a DVD. Even without burning, when I try Preview, the still images look extremely low-res. Any way I can get this to work?
And, please pardon me for saying it, but I use Lightroom a great deal, Elements somewhat, and I have a pretty new 4 GB RAM Dell with much NTFS disk space, and two decades of doing computer support professionally. Given all of that, Premiere Elements seems to be an atrocious performer - 7 anyway. It takes an incredibly long time to load, and starts flashing "running low on memory" messages shockingly quickly. A glance at forum messages suggests that 8 may not be an improvement. Any suggestions on performance? Lightroom is pretty much lightning fast.

Welcome to the forum.
First, editing Video is far more intense on the computer, than even very large images in PS. The resources issue can likely be overcome by the tips in this ARTICLE.
Also, with any resources issues, remember that these can be physical RAM, and also the Windows Virtual Memory (Page File). The size, location and management of the Page File can be very important, especially if one has many other programs and Processes stealing resources unnecessarily.
Last, let's talk about the burning (and Transcoding) of a DVD-Video. First place to look would be the size of your still images. You cannot display more pixels, than the Frame Size of your Project. Unless you are doing a lot of animation, having them any larger than the Frame Size is a waste. The quality will actually be better, if you do your resizing in PS, and not letting PrE do it for you. This ARTICLE will give you some tips. Having to process large stills will rob your system of necessary resources.
As for the burned DVD-Video not playing in a set-top player, and only a computer, the most likely causes of this are the blank media itself, and too high a burn speed. I strongly recommend using Verbatim, or Taiyo Yuden media, and recommend against using Memorex, TDK, recent RiteK or any store brands. I also would use slower speed media, as PrE will try to get the fastest burn, based on the speed of the blank media and the burner. Slower is better. I can manually assign the speed in my authoring program, and choose a speed at least half of the max.
Good luck,
Hunt

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.
