RAW format photos in Leopard 10.5.5

Photos show up pixilated when I view them in finder after upgrading to 10.5.5. Do I need a new plug in from Nikon?

Hi
Do you have any 3rd party Safari related add-ons installed in your system? They would be located in either the Main Users Library (HD>Library), or in your User Account Library in the InputMangers folder.
If no, have you tried Safari from another User Account? If the problem exists there too, then I suggest you reinstall Safari. Here's how you reinstall it:
First, move your existing Safari.app to the trash. Next, insert the Leopard Installer DVD. Double Click on the "Optional Installs". Then double click on the Optional Installs.mpkg file. Once open, the Installer will lead you through a few steps. After selecting your HD, the next panel is where you'll find Safari (in the Applications folder. Check the box, then continue.
After Safari is installed, go to your Applications>Utilities folder. There, open Disk Utility. When open, select your HD on the left, then "repair permissions".

How do I get CS5 updated to read raw format photos

Why doesn't Photoshop read raw format photos from Nikon D600? I've tried downloading new versions of "Camera Raw". It downloads and installs successfully, but I still can't open the files in photoshop.

Bad news:
The Nikon D600 didn't get RAW support until Camera Raw version 7.3, which is in CS6 and above. (CS5 only had support up until Camera Raw 6.7.)
Good news:
You can still convert your NEFs using the DNG Converter and open those in CS5. Otherwise, if you want out-of-the-box RAW/NEF support, you'll have to upgrade to CS6 or CC.

IPhoto selectively imports RAW format photos

First up - I am a complete Mac novice - my PC blew up a month ago and I thought "what the heck" and bought an iMac instead of a new PC. I have transferred all of my files over to the Mac and am very happy in general. Until I ran into this problem with iPhoto.
I have been slowly importing my photos into iPhoto over the past week or so, and everything has gone smoothly up to about 13,000 pictures. I only have about 2,000 to go. I even managed to synch them with my AppleTv so can now watch them on my television.
However when I now import some of my photos (all are in RAW format) some of the photos for one photo shoot come in just fine, but some appear as white blank tiles. Note that in Finder I can see the preview of the photos just fine - but whenever I try to import them into iPhoto they just turn up as blank white squares.
I've tried lots of things to try and fix this, including:
1. Doing all the rebuild things on iPhoto database by holding Cmd and Ctrl when launching iPhoto - didn't work
2. Reinstalling the iPhoto database form a time capsule backup that i'd taken before the problem flared up and trying again to import - didn't work.
When I go to edit the photo in iPhoto - a grey triangle with an exclamation mark appears and it says "image cannot be edited, the original format is not supported" - but how can this be true when some of the other photos (in exactly the same format) are showing just fine.
The photos were taken on a Canon 500D and as far as I can gather, this has been a supported RAW format for quite a while.
My Mac version is OSX 10.9.5 (I've no idea if that's a Lion or a Leopard or whatever) and the iPhoto version is 9.5.1 (902.17).
Any help would be much appreciated - and please - be patient with me if at all possible - as I really don't know my way around a Mac at all.
Many thanks

Terence - ok - not good news for me I'm afraid - Graphic Converter doesn't like the image either - it didn't show on the preview there and doesn't show up in the main program. I guess my images are corrupted beyond repair?
To be fair - my PC did die - and I've had no issues with reducing any other files - so I've gotten away pretty lightly if all I've lost in that process are some images (albeit of a best mate's wedding).
Is there anything else I can try, or are we pretty much done here?
I really appreciate both your help and your patience walking me through the options, even if it hasn't led to a positive conclusion.

How can I get Aperture 3.4 to support Sony NEX-5N RAW format photos?

I've upgraded all software and my camera -- Sony NEX-5N -- is on the Aperture list for RAW format support, but it continues to show images shot in RAW as a black square with FORMAT NOT SUPPORTED! in the middle. Is there a setting I'm overlooking or what?

Your camera is on the list of the "Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 3.9"
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1473
What is your Aperture version? Perhaps you need to reinstall Aperture from the original installation media and then upgrade to include the 3.9 update. Or try to install the raw upgrade directly.

I photo automatically converted my raw imports to jpegs, where do i find the original raw format photos so I can put them in lightroom? How do i prevent iPhoto from doing this?

can anyone help me with the above question??

iPhoto converts nothing. When you import a Raw iPhoto generates a Jpeg preview that is used for sharing via media browswers. This is also what you get if you drag and drop. Your Raw is preserved, untouched.
File -> Export and set the Kind to Original will get your Raws.
This User Tip

has details of the options in the Export dialogue.

Edit photo in RAW format

Can I edit a raw format photo in iphoto? If so, how do you import it? I tried and said it
is unrecognizable. I just learned about this format that is great to edit, but not sure
how to do it.
Thanks
Jeff

iPhoto for iOS does nit edit the RAW format. I suggest editing RAW files on your computer. If you are using a Canon camera use the DPP program supplied with your camera.

Why are my RAW format files no longer supported?

Using a Mac OS X 10.5.8 with versions of Adobe Photoshop CS5, Adobe Bridge CS5 and Camera Raw Plug-in.
Shot .CR2 raw format photos on my Canon EOS 450D (Same as Rebel XSi)
Have always been able to open them successfully in Camera Raw and Photoshop. Now says that the files and/or my camera model/make is not supported by the Camera Raw Plug-in nor by my Photoshop.
Tried converting to DNG first with Adobe DNG Converter 7.1 and even that says that the source folder does not contain any supported camera raw files.
Previous raw files taken with the same camera on the same computer with the same (or even earlier) versions of all these programs have always worked. I can still open those successfully too. However just these new ones I cannot. Nothing has changed about my camera in that time...
What can I do and why is it that these files are no longer supported?

ACR 6.7 and ACR 7.1 RC can open XSi CR2 files at least on Windows 7. I just checked.
However, on Windows, at least, the DNGC 7.1 RC has a quirk in that when you want to convert a folder of CR2s to DNGs, you have to click the Select button when the folder is highlighted in the file selection dialog and the folder listed in the location area of the file selection dialog. You cannot click INTO the folder and then click Select, which sounds like what you are doing. If you do click into the folder and click Select it’ll say there are no compatible files that exist. I think previous versions of the DNGC would recover properly if you clicked into the folder before clicking Select.
Since your files cannot be opened in ACR, either, then perhaps they are corrupted. You might post a download link to one of them in a message here so others can have a look. If you don’t have a large file hosting service, then set up a free account on www.dropbox.com or www.yousendit.com or similar, upload your file, there, then post the public download link, here, in a reply.

Is the Nikon D5300 raw format supported in Elements 12?

I purchased a D5300 and I am not able to open RAW format photos. I want to know if Elements 12 will open them.

According to Adobe’s Supported Camera’s list, you need ACR 8.3:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
According to Adobe’s ACR App Compatibility list, PSE12 ships with ACR 8.1 and can be updated to ACR 8.3 although the list does not include ACR 8.4 which is the current version of plug-in, perhaps because ACR 8.4 is only compatible with Windows 7+ and OSX 10.7.5+, which is newer than the minimum requirements of some of the applications that host it:

Raw format sony a100

I have a lot of raw format photos from a sony a100. When I try to view pics from that camera the thumbnails look normal, but the full size pics look somewhat like negatives. Is there a way to fix this?
Also how can I add photos to my iphoto library without copying the pics into the iphoto folder?

HinckeyHog
What color format are the shots? iPhoto supports RGB only, not CMYK, which can cause this problem. Also, is the RAW from Sony supported?
As to your second question: Go to Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck 'Copy file to iPhoto Library Folder when importing...'
But remember: if you choose this option that importing and deleting pics are multi-step operations rather than simple ones, and things like moving your photos to an external HD or to a new machine is more complicated.

Lr5 and raw format importing

Why won't lr5 import my raw format photos from my nikon d600?

When I try to import I get the message "The files are not recognized by the RAW format support in Lightroom". My Nikon d600 is on the list of supported cameras. Just updated to LR5 last night. It should work. I'm thinking I might need to reload the Nikon Transfer software? Thoughts?

Im running lightroom 4 and just purchased the Sony A7 and using its sd card. when I tried to load the photos, I got a message "the files are not recognized by the raw format support in lightroom"

Tried loading my raw files shot w my new Sony a7 and its sd card into lightroom4. Got a message: "The files are not recognized by the raw format in lightroom"
Does Lightroom 4 not work with the Sony A7?
Thanks,

Lightroom 4 cannot read the RAW photos from a Sony A7
You would have to download and install the FREE Adobe DNG Converter version 8.5 and then convert your RAW to DNG, and then import the DNGs into Lightroom 4
You could also purchase Lightroom 5.5, which will have the capability to read the RAWs directly.

I Just converted my iPhoto library to Photos. Now I can't find my RAW files. I need to have all the images in my old library show up in their RAW format.

I Just converted my iPhoto library to Photos. Now I can't find my RAW files. I need to have all the images in my old library show up in their RAW format.

Unfortunately no - Photos use extensions and the vendor (adobe) will have to implement the extension to allow external edits in PS or PSE
For now you must export the photo, edit and then import - not great but a work arond
And you can continue to use iPhoto until Photos meets your needs - launch it in your applications folder - if you need assistance on this see Why won't my iPhotos open?

You should take a look at iView Media or its Pro version. It is a cross-platform (Mac and Windows) program that is free of some of the stultifying limitations of iPhoto. For example, you can create multiple catalogs and you can easily catalog media (not just photos) that are not on the current disk, like media stored on CDs. It has very flexible cataloging features.
If they have not changed their licensing, you can buy one license to run both the Mac and PC version for one price. You can make one catalog and easily pass it between a Mac and PC with no translation or confusion. This would be much easier than trying to make it work with iPhoto and some other Windows program.
If you were to go the iView route, you would have to "sync" the data back to the photos so that they carry your keyword etc. data with them to other apps. I don't know if iPhoto embeds that info back to the photos, or if it stays in the iPhoto database only.
Photoshop Elements 4 is great on Windows, but the Mac version of Elements does not include the cataloging feature because it integrates with iPhoto. I'm not sure how smooth that all works.

After taking a photo in RAW format, which format is best to save in for editing in photoshop

I want the highest quality pictures possible, so I take photos in RAW format, but what format should I be saving in during photoshop editing? Is TIFF or PSD or EPS, or some other format the best for retaining the highest quality photos?

To me saving as PSD seems more natural. Since it's Photoshop's native format, you can rest assured that all aspects of your document will be saved.
