RAW Plug-in Not Applicable???

Here's the scoop: I have been using CS4 with the RAW plug-in for a couple of years now. My computer crashed last week and while I saved all of my files and was able to migrate everything to an external hard drive, once I reformatted my disk and migrated everything back to my laptop I am no longer able to read RAW files. So I figured the plug-in somehow got lost in all the moves. So I downloaded the latest RAW plug-in (6.4.1) but, when I tried to install it, Adobe Application Manager says that the "Update is not Applicable". Now what?

Install Camera Raw 6.5 plug-in for Photoshop Elements 9 or 10 and Adobe Premiere Elements 9 or 10 (manual installation on Mac OS or Windows)
Note: To successfully install the Camera Raw Plug-in for Photoshop Elements and Adobe Premiere Elements, follow all of the instructions below.
Download the update installer utility (Windows: ElementsCameraRaw-6.5-mul-AdobeUpdate.zip or Mac: ElementsCameraRaw-6.5-mul-AdobeUpdate.dmg) using the following links.
NOTE: Elements 9 and Elements 10 products use a different version of the Camera Raw 6.5 plug-in, select the link related to your version.

Camera raw plug in not showing up as an option in the file menu the plugin was updated?

I am trying to adjust the white balance using photoshop elements 11, all the information I have come across tells you how to do it using the camera raw plug in. This has been updated and still I do not see it listed when I click on the file menu. I take photos of antique gold lockets using a light house and even though the custom white balance is set on my camera the photos are still coming out too canary yellow. I need to be able to adjust the colors so that they are more antique rose gold looking and have been reading different articles and videos on how other people adjust the colors and would like to try a couple of the ways I have seen but am unable as the camera raw plug in is not showing up as an option. Any suggestions on how I can solve this problem would be most appreciated. I have tried the quick fixes, color and contrast etc and not getting the results I am looking for... Please tell me what to do...

You never see it in the file menu. But if you go to File>Open As in windows you should be able to choose Camera Raw as the format.
On a mac it would be file>Open, choose the file, choose camera raw as the format>Open.
That's assuming these aren't raw files. If it's a raw file, just plain ol' file>Open and selecting a raw file should open the file in the converter.

Camera RAW plug-in not working

Hi,
I recently downloaded the Camera RAW 5.6 update for Elements 8 but even after following the instructions carefully and verfigying that the plug was added I cannot open a RAW file in photoshop. I am not sure what the problem and am hoping someone with more experience in this area can help me.
Help?
Thanks,
Cara

Yes, we didn't start supporting the D3100 until the 6.3 version of the camera raw plug-in (Source: Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras). This version of the camera raw plug-in doesn't work with Photoshop Elements 8 (Source: Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications). In order to natively support the D3100, you'd need Photoshop Elements 9 or later (10 is the current version). The other option is to convert your raw NEF files to DNG (a universal raw format) by using the DNG Converter: Mac|Windows.

Camera Raw plug-in not recognizing file format.

My partner and I recently purchased new cameras, Canon D6 & Mark III. When I uploaded the new pictures from these cameras, the files didn't load. When I tried to open them in raw I received the error message seen below. Went to the link and was unable to find the appropriate update. Please assist when possible. I currently use CS5.1 & Windows.

According to this list:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
The 6D needs ACR 7.3 or newer while the 5D Mark III needs ACR 6.7 or 7.1 or newer.
PS-CS5 can only be updated to ACR 6.x so it might work with the 5D Mark II but not the 6D.
You can use the free DNG Converter 7.3 or newer to create DNGs from the CR2 files that can be read by the older ACR plug-in, or you can upgrade to PS-CS6 or PS-CC. The best deal might be the PS-CC+LR Photography Plan that is $10/month.

CS2 RAW plug in not working :o(

Hi guys, i have CS2 on a windows 7 laptop. I have recently started college and im desperate to be able to open RAW files. i have downloaded the plug in, but i still cant open them. any help in simple terms would be great. my camera is a nikon d90 NEF RAW is the file type. thanks : o)

Open the DNG converter application. It looks like this:
Then you run through the four sections. First you browse to the folder where you put the D90 NEFs. Just leave that folder selected - the app doesn't convert single files, it converts whole folders.
Same for destination folder, except you can choose to just save in the same folder.
In 3, rename the files if you like, or leave at "document name".
In 4 you pick ACR version compatibility. Since you're on CS2, that'll have to be "2.4 and later". You can also choose to embed the original NEF in the DNG, so that it can be extracted later. Not necessary if you also keep the NEFs, but do one or the other so that you can use a newer ACR version later with full functionality.
Hit "convert". When finished, you have a folder of DNGs that can be opened in ACR 3 (which is what you have).

Issue downloading Camera Raw update: 'Update Not Applicable'

Hi,
I'm running CS5 Extended 12.0x64, and started shooting with a canon 60D (previously 450D). i am having the issue of the Camera Raw images being unreadable, I presumed because of the new camera, but I am unable to install the 7.1 update on my Mac.
Help?
Thanks

The free DNG Converter could be used to convert the RAW images to DNG which your version of ACR should be able to process.

How do I open a raw image with the Photoshop raw plug in as opposed to the Bridge raw plug-in.

I read in a book on adobe raw that it is often useful to open an image at the same time with the adobe camera raw bridge plug in and the Photoshop camera raw plug in.
I can open a raw image in photoshop but I suspect I am not actually getting access to the camera raw plug in as none of the controls present in the bridge raw plug seem to be available from within Photoshop.
Of course I can access bridge and the bridge raw plug in by opening bridge from within Photoshop but this is not what I want to do. I would like to open the image using the photoshop raw plug in not the bridge plug in.
Clueless . . . and confused.

Thanks for the discussion. It is interesting. Let me clarify a bit regarding my issue.
I am using Mountain Lion OSX on a mac, of course, and CS6. I have been using Aperture, a piece of Apple Software similar to Light Room to organize my images, opening them from Aperture in Photoshop to edit them, as I am both familiar with Photoshop and like the way it does things better than Aperture. I recently started using CS6 and working with Adobe Camera raw 7, which I think is the version that comes with CS6. All the info I can get from the web site, including a very nice tutorial from Adobe on camera raw, simply tells me to open it from Bridge. When I do this, I get a nice set of sliders and other adjustments specifically associated with Adobe Camera Raw and the camera I am using.
I can open a file in Photoshop using the method SkillRooster suggests and, sure enough, it opens it with the camera raw plug-in (if I simply open the image by double clicking on it it opens in photoshop, no plug-in). If I then go to bridge and open it from there, I don't get a second instance of Camera raw, it simply points me at the instance opened through Photoshop.
However, when I open a raw image in Photoshop from Aperture (raw images open with no problem) I simply get the Photoshop interface, not the camera raw plug-in, the same as if I had double clicked on the image to open it from outside of Aperture. I am trying to figure out if there is some way to open an image from Aperture in Photoshop so that it opens in the camera raw plug-in. One possibility I could imagene is to open it in Photoshop and from there open it in the plug-in. The only thing I see regarding this in Photoshop is a menu item that lets me close the image and open Bridge, which doesn't help me with my Aperture issue. I could decide to switch to bridge, but with the thousands of images I now have in Aperture, this would be quite a bit of work. I may just have to work with both going forward.
The root of my original question comes from something I recently read in a book by Bruce Fraser on Camera Raw which is excellent, but it focues on CS 5.5 as he died before being able to update it. In that book he describes a trick he uses where he opens the raw image in a plug-in in Bridge and then opens it a second time using a plug-in in Photoshop. This give him a chance to compare adjustments between the two open images. As I mentioned above, when I try to do this by starting with Photoshop and then going to Bridge, it points me at the same instance. I can't open it in Bridge and then Photoshop since once it is open in Bridge, it won't let me into Photoshop without closing the image in Bridge. I was thinking there might be something in Fraser's method that would help me with my Aperture issue, but can't reproduce what he describes.
Perhaps this was possible in CS5.5 but no longer in CS6.
Another work around I can imagine is to do all my raw editing from Bridge and then save the file as a DNG file in Aperture. I suspect that after that, I am stuck with doing any more raw editing using the Aperture camera raw funcions, which are a bit lacking compared with Adobe Camera Raw.
Hope I am being clear here about my dilemma. Any help would be welcomed.

Adobe Camera Raw 8.4 RC "Update not applicable"

I just tried to install Camera Raw 8.4 RC and got the message that the update is not applicable. I have PS CC and LR installed via CC. Adobe Twitter Support redirected me here. Has anyone an idea of what to do?
Is there any log of the update process?
Is the final release in sight?
Kind Regards.

Camera Raw is commonly used to refer to a Photoshop plug-in which is not related to LR, so an ACR release will not enhance LR in any way.
If, instead, your use of the term Camera Raw refers to a version of Adobe’s raw processing engine, then a new version of LR that contains the CR 8.4 engine, but not a CR 8.4 plug-in, is expected to be released.
Adobe isn’t saying when and the rest of us don’t know.

I have Photoshop CS5.1 (bought in 2011). The photoshop Camera Raw plug-in is not recognizing the format of my new Nikon D610. I updated the version of my Camera Raw plug in and am still getting this message when trying to open images in photoshop. Please

This link shows that ACR 8.3 supports the Nikon D610 and 6.7.1 was the final version for CS5.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
So you can upgrade to CS6 and ACR 8.7.1
or using the DNG converter, convert your Nikon raw files to dng format to open in CS5.
Here is the download link: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
or Windows: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
And here is a great video tutorial on how to use the converter.

Elements 12 does not open nef raw files depsite having latest raw plug-in

Help please - wasted far too much time trying to open my raw files with recently purchased elements 12. I have tried to ensure all software is up-to-date but still the message that the raw file is not supported appears when I try to open with Camera Raw . The files open in nikon software and windows. My camera is a Nikon D7100.

As a test, try copying a nef file from your camera to computer without using nikon transfer and see if it opens in pse 12.
Which version of windows are you using?
If in the photoshop elements 12 editor you go to Help>About Plug-In and click on the words Camera Raw, what version does it say?

Trying to open file in photoshop elements, only first option available in Edit Photo window. The other two has "Edit a Copy is not applicable to raw or Digital Negative files" same for Edit Original.

Brand new user to Lightroom 5. Was following tutorials and doing fine editing. After done editing NEF files, I'm trying to open them in PSE 11 to further edit. Using the "Edit Photo with Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor". But the window only has the first option available and the other two grayed out. Each of those has "...is not applicable to raw or Digital Negative files." What??

What I wanted to do instead was to indeed remove that people from the photo with Photoshop but keep those changes in DNG.
sorry, no can do...ain't gonna happen.
What you've done is hit the wall on is the basic difference between lite duty spot healing and photo level tone and color correction (Lightroom and Camera Raw) and heavy duty pixel retouching in Photoshop.
When you need to substantially manipulate the "pixels" you need Photoshop and you'll be forced to render the raw file into a TIFF or PSD file either through Camera Raw or more better, via Lightroom.
You can do the basic tone and color correction directly in Lightroom and edit in Photoshop from Lightroom. But you will NEED to create and save out a "rendered" image that is no longer raw...then retouch to your heart's desire, save it and it'll be available in Lightroom along side your original raw if you choose.
But no, there's no way to open a raw in Photoshop, manipulate the heck out of it with massive retouching then save that back out as a raw file...ain't gonna happen.

Latest Lithroom 5.6 does not recognize my .cr2 raw file format and Windows 7 it asociates with my older raw plug in in Ps CS5.5. I am not able to change default program for .cr2 in the properties pannel...
every new released update of Lr from v 5.2 changed somethin in my Windows 7 Professional settings. I am stucked. Can somebody help me please? Many thanks. Andrej

Hi Jim,
yes after I imported my .cr2 raw files into new catalog it started to work. Windows 7 still does not recognize them but I can edit them as you said within the Lr5.6 and then export them into .psd or .dng files...as needed.
I bought Lr5 only because I got present - my new camera Cannon 70D and because my older Photoshop CS5.5 raw plugin does not recognize. cr2 files.
Many thanks for your help.
Andrej.

How can i view nikon images in photoshop? i have cs4 so the camera raw plug-in is not an option and i've lost my disk from the initial purchase of the D90.

how can i view nikon images in photoshop? i have cs4 so the camera raw plug-in is not an option and i've lost my disk from the initial purchase of the D90.

The NEF file only gives a little "nef" icon. i was able to convert the NEF to DNG on the old computer and then brought the files over to the new computer. On the old computer, the NEF files were depicted as little jpeg's so I would be able to see a picture of what each file represented. On the new computer, both the NEF files and the DNG files are depicted with icons, "nef" or "dng", but not as little pictures. On the new computer, though, I am to import the DNG's into Adobe and edit them so that is working regardless of whether or not a picture is present for the icon of each file. I've downloaded the DNG converter from Adobe and will try the conversion directly on the new computer when I get home from work. I do appreciate your responses and will let you know how it works.
I am curious then, since right now the files are represented by little "nef"'s and little "dng"'s: If I also download the viewNX (spelling might be wrong, sorry) from nikon, do you know if that maintains the file as a RAW format file but allows a picture representation of the RAW file for the icon? (That would make it easier to choose which RAW files I would choose to edit and which to not even bother with as an initial culling if that makes sense.
Cheers.

Having troubles updating Camera Raw to 8.2 on Photoshop CC - "patch not applicable"

Hello there,
I have a brand new Photoshop CC 14.0, coming with Camera Raw 8.0.
If I go through help --> updates no new camera raw version gets recognized, even though 8.1 has already been released.
Then I tried with 8.2 RC that comes in a zip file, but when I launch AdobePatchInstaller.exe it runs for a short while and then it says something like (I'm roughly translating from Italian):
Update not succeeded
Patch application not possible
This patch is not applicable. Check availability of updates from the Help menu of the product to etc. etc. etc.
Is this a bug? I would think something is wrong with the 8.2 installer, but in that case the help --> updates should have at least found the 8.1 version, yet... nothing.
Could you please help?

Just a quick answer to stress how absurd is this (and to provide help to anybody who may be struggling with the same problem): I solved it this way: with Adobe Creative Cloud (or by any other means I guess) go install Adobe Bridge CC trial version. Now if you go there (that is in Bridge) to Help --> Updates this will find Camera Raw 8.1 as an update and will install it. This is cross application, therefore once it finishes you will have it working in Photoshop too.
Then again, if you want to install the ACR 8.2 RC (in case the final version isn't out yet) you can run the exectuable in the zip file: it will now install version 8.2 correctly.
