Raw Photos not importing

Shot some photos on Raw with a Canon 60d. Transferred them to an external drive. Premiere Pro CC does non see the files. Can not import them. Only way was to convert them to tiff files. Should I had shot them in Canon RGB?

Not surprised. NLE's have been designed primarily to work with files that compared to stills cameras are "low res" ... but voluminous in number. NLE's have to handle thousands of images on the fly, that need de-compressing not just individually but whole groups "share" bits & pieces though perhaps in different places as subjects or camera move during a scene.
A D800 can produce relatively a MASSIVE single image file. It's a very different thing. Doing that much scaling on the fly is yes, a stretch for most NLE's. I'd also note that I've heard and seen many comments about the re-sizing of still images not being a strength of NLE's as compared to say Photoshop. So it is recommended that still images be sized per the sequence they'll be on before being imported. The exception of course is if one is doing the "Ken Burns" effect, and either panning across a section of a still image over time or zooming in or out over time. Yet even then it is recommended to figure out the largest image size you'll need and re-sizing to that in a stills image editor.

See this article: iPad: Using the iPad Camera Connection Kit
No, this canot be done, afaik. When your camera or card is connected, you will see the thumbnails in the camera pane, but not full size preview. So to browse your photos on the iPad you will need to import them to your camera roll. But you need not delete them from the camera or card after importing, so you might simply import selected photos to your camera roll from the camera grid and then delete them again from the camera roll after importing and browsing, without removing them from the card/camera.

Iphoto: find photos not imported in the iPhoto Library

Hello
I've got this message from iPhoto since few days, trying to repair the DB with no success, any idea ??
In English : Photos not imported are find in the iPhoto library.
I've also tried this terminal command to optimze the DB for dbase in *.db; do sqlite3 $dbase "vacuum;"; done but no success.
Thanks for your feedback

Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. Make no other changes. Start iPhoto. Does that help?
If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

Yosemite Photos not importing Nikon D40 RAW+JPEG

I tried to import RAW+JPEG photo sets from an SD card of a Nikon D40 and my first impression was that the photos were imported, they appeared on the Last Import album but then I noticed these issues:
1. I was not able to edit the photo
2. I was not able to select the RAW file to edit it
3. When tried to import from Facebook, the Finder interface was not able to located the imported photo even though it appear on Photos app
I thought that the issue was related to the SD card so I connected the D40 via USB and imported again. Nothing different happen, the same 3 issues.
My workaround was this:
1. Insert the SD Card in the slot
2. Open Finder
3. Navigate through the folders to locate the NEF file (RAW file)
4. Copy the file to the Desktop
4. Open Photos
5. Import the NEF file from the Desktop
Edit was succesful and Facebook was able to upload it.
Equipment:
Nikon D40 + SanDisk 4GB Ultra II
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011)
     Processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5
     Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
     Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB

That is what Apple's RAW support page says, so you can do nothing about it:

Photos not importing raw pef ( pentax raw ) files

Hi,
recently updated my 2010 macbook pro to the latest version of mavericks.
All my previously imported files are there - jpg, and raw, but trying to import some new photos it seems that only jpg's are being imported.
My pentax k10d is set to save in pef format as they are smaller than the adobe format raw photos.
Does anyone have any ideas how to import raw?
The saved photos on the sd card have the same name for both raw and jpg - only the extension is different.
I've checked in photos to see if there is a raw file 'behind' the jpg but the options for reprocessing raw and 'use raw as original' are greyed out. I can see that all the files are on the sd card in finder - I even tried dragging the raw files to the photos app from finder with no success.
Thanks,
Mark

The RAW files of your camera are supported by MacOS X 10.10.x.
My pentax k10d is set to save in pef format as they are smaller than the adobe format raw photos.
That may be the problem. For some supported cameras only the uncompressed RAW files are supported. Have you tried to take a picture with uncompressed RAW? Will that be imported by Photos?

Why are Panasonic GX7 RAW photos not visible in Aperture but in OS X Mavericks and iPhoto?

My Panasonic GX7 RAW photos seem to be visible in OS X Mavericks and iPhoto, but bizarrely not in Aperture (3.5.1).
Does anyone know why this would be? Any solution greatly appreciated.
I've been unable to mange a significant number of images for almost 7 months now due to Aperture's lack of GX7 RAW support and am seriously considering migrating to Lightroom 5. Aperture has been my workflow application of choice for the last 7 or 8 years, but I feel the current situation has become unacceptable and deeply disappointing .

That camera was supported in digital camera Raw 5.0.1 and Aperture 3.4.5 or later. As you say the files are supported in iPhoto it seems you have the right Raw file.
Have you tried it with new imports in Aperture does it still fail? What if you reprocess the Raw files in Aperture, any change?

Raw Photos not Visible in CS5 Bridge

I have been using CS5 for several years with my Sony a100 DSLR. I recently purchased a Sony a99 DSLR and my Raw photos are not visible in Bridge. How can I correct this issue?

If you are referring to the Sony Alpha SLT-A99V (the EXACT model numbers are important) Camera Raw 6.x for Photoshop CS5 will never get updated for the Sony Alpha SLT-A99V.
Your options are to upgrade to Photoshop CS6 and ACR 7.2 (the first version that supported the Sony Alpha SLT-A99V) or download the free DNG Converter 7.3 (current version) and convert those files to DNG. Go to the Digital Negative (DNG) page and scroll down to Downloads to download the correct platform (Mac/Windows).

Lightroom 3 Raw Files not Importing

I have a Nikon d3200 and I am using Lightroom 3. My raw files are not importing. Do I need some sort of plugin? Im not sure where to find the plugin on Adobes site...ugh!!! #frustrated

You would need the FREE Adobe DNG Converter (version 7.1 or later) to convert your D3200 raw photos to DNG. The DNGs will import into Lightroom.

RAW Photos not recognized

I have a Cannon G2 and recently took some RAW photos for the first time. Unfortunately, my Iphoto 6 doesn't want to recognize and import them, in spite of the camera being on the list as recognizable. I get this error message:
The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data).
Then it lists the file path of each image. If I do a spotlight search for these images, i can see the images themselves in the spotlight window, leading me to believe they aren't corrupt.
Any ideas? I'm going to attempt to bring them in to Photoshop and convert them to JPEG but I'm still curious in that my camera should be allowed to download RAW files to IPhoto6. Thanks in advance.

Ah, but there is a second and much shorter list of cameras for which RAW format is actually supported. I've been dealing with this for an Olympus E-500 and was guided to the same list you saw, which says it's a supported camera. I'm guessing that the statement that RAW support may require additional software is the operative one here, although that was not clear to me.
Adobe Photoshop CS2 supports RAW, for a steep price. Adobe has a public beta of Lightroom, which is free until the release version of the program comes out. It supports your camera's RAW format, but is somewhat slow compared to iPhoto. Apple's Aperture looks to be a great program, but it offers RAW support for the same limited list of cameras as iPhoto. If you go to photography sites such as dpreview.com, you can find discussions of other RAW converters, some of which are free. However, I don't know which of them run on a Mac. (Fortunately, I already had Photoshop.)
Here's the link to the RAW-supported cameras in iPhoto:

Why won't my camera raw photos (.CR2) import? Jpeg won't either. Just installed Lightroom 5. Says files can't be read. Please help.

Trying to import photos to Lighroom 5 from my lexar memory card. Says files can't be read. It will not import any file, CR2 or Jpeg. Will someone please help me? I'm not good with complicated lingo either. It has to be simple for me to understand. Thank you in advance.

Are you using a card reader or trying to import via the camera? If importing from the camera then you can expect problems, switch to using a card reader.
If you are already using a card reader then the card itself may have problems. Copy the contents over to somewhere on your hard drive and try importing from there. Make sure you regularly format your card in the camera. And switch to using a different card to see if the problem continues.

Raw Photos Not Opening

Hi.
I am using an Apple Macbookpro, shooting with a Canon EOS Rebel T5i and trying to open RAW photo's in Photoshop CS5. I have tried various updates as per the suggestions in these topics, but no luck, same message from Photoshop saying:
"Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw. Please visit the Camera Raw help documentation for additional information."
Any suggestions on what to do?

The Rebel T5i was first supported in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 7.4
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
ACR 7.4 is only compatible with CS6 apps and later - not CS5.
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
Your options:
Upgrade to CS6
Join the Cloud
Join the Photoshop Photography Program for $9.99/month and get Photoshop CC + Lightroom 5 + extras
Buy Lightroom 5, convert to DNG then edit the DNGs in CS5
Convert the T5i Raw files to DNGs using the free Adobe DNG converter then edit the DNG files in CS5

Photos not importing / import issue

Pleeeeeease help me. This is driving me crazy! I have what seems like an intermittent problem with LR4.3.
Sometimes it lets me import and edit no problem, then sudenly the import won't work almost like it can't see the images because the preview doesn't show.
A few times when this happens I restart then it works again, but this time I've tried everything and nothing works :-(
When I select "cancel import" I have to force quit to get anyting to work.

I'm having a similar problem with Import. I'm not importing from a card. I'm trying to import from files I've already moved to my harddrive. When I select the folder with the pics to import, I get nothing but a lot of blank boxes, just like the image above. If I click on a box, I get the pic. When I try to import one or all of them, Import just hangs. When I cancel the import after a ridiculously long time of nothing happening, I get an error message that says "No photos or videos found to import" — even though there's a folder full of photos I pointed LR at. I've reinstalled LR 4.3, but then I read that doesn't do anything, and it didn't. I've restarted the computer. I've reimported the photos to another folder. I've unplugged the camera, I've unplugged other USB stuff — even though I don't see how this could have anything to do with anything, and hasn't in the pas. Nothing, nothing, and more nothing.

Photos not imported message after opening iPhoto 08

Has anyone ever experienced following Problem:
Everytime I open iPhoto it appears this error message: "9 photos have been found in the iPhoto Library that were not imported. Would you like to import them?". If I choose yes, iPhoto shuts down after a short while. If I choose no, it works, but everytime I do so, one foto is added to the fotos left to import.
How do I get rid of this fotos?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right click on it and choose 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window opens with your library inside. You should see a folder there called 'Importing' or perhaps 'Last Import' (NOT Auto Import). In side will be the offending files. Drag that folder to the desktop and launch iPhoto. Does it work normally?

Photos not importing from Canon camera.

I plug my Canon camera into my iMac and iPhoto asks if I want to import and as long as the camera is connected, it shows the pics were imported. However, when I disconnect the camera, the photos do not show up. My iMac is only a few weeks old and I did a migration from my old MacBook, could this have something to do with it?

Here's a video explaining how to use the adobe dng converter.

RAW Imgs not importing into Aperture

I recently downloaded Aperture 3 and the "Apple Pro Training Series - Aperture 3" book to learn how to get the most of this application. However, as I followed the first lesson in the book it calls for a simulated import of images which includes RAW images. All of the JPGs are imported but not the RAW files. I am not new to using photo editing software nor am I new to working with a Mac. But I do not understand why the RAW files wouldn't import. Any thoughts? Am I missin a setting in Aperture 3 that was supposed to be set upon install? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Mike
p.s. I just recently upgraded to ML too.

What were the raw files? Were they from a supported camera?
http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
Were they matching pairs or Raw + JPEG files? If so, they came in but you have only the Jpeg showing perhaps. You need to select the image and choose Set Raw as Original in the context menu.
