The new ACR 5.5 update will not install in Elements 7.0

Hello All:
This situation is now becoming ridiculous (well, for me that is).  I just tried to install the new ACR 5.5 update and it is "unable to install" into Elements 7.0.  I downloaded the update several times, unzipped the install file, but when trying to install, it just gives me a message that it is unable to install and to hit the "quit" button.
I have a Vista 64 Bit system with 12 Gigs of RAM.  I've installed Elements 7.0 and Lightroom 2.5 on my system - all with no problems.  For some reason, I could never get Photoshop CS-4 to install at all and I've been through the mill trying to install Photoshop - but nothing worked and had to eventually give up.  Trying to get Adobe support for CS installation on my 64 Bit system has been ridiculous in this regard as each and every time I called, I was connected with some techrep located in India who all they did was "parrot" back what I told them - how frustrating.  But as I mentioned, Elements 7.0 and Lightroom installed just fine.
The previous ACR 5.4 installed just fine into Elements, but now...ACR 5.5 will not install.  It tells me that I do NOT have CS-4 installed so it cannot install.  What's up with that? Has Adobe stopped supporting the latest ACR upgrades for Elements?  What gives?
Does anybody just have just the newest ACR 5.5 plug-in by itself that they can send me so I can just put it in my plug-ins folder (or a place where I can download it)?  Adobe used to just have the plug-in that you could unzip and copy and paste and put it into your plug-in folders - but not anymore.  Now they make it an 82 Meg install program and thus some of my problems.
Can anybody help here?  Why does the install program look for CS-4, yet overlook Elements 7.0 completely.  Helpppppppppp.

Hi Benherrmann,
Sorry to listen that you havent been able to install the Camera Raw 5.5 plugin.
But as far as my knowledge goes for PSE, PSE never lists Camera Raw plugin for updates in the Updater Preferences dialog i.e., if you will launch Help->Check for updates, a updater window will open. If you will check the preferences of that updater dialog, it will tell you that it never checks for updates for Camera Raw plugin unlike what happens in Mac. In Mac Camera Raw updates does get installs just by installing PSE(v6 of course as there is no PSE7 for Mac. Hopefully there will be a v8 for Mac by the end of october as seen in the last release).
Dont know exact reason why Adobe had configured it in that way? why there is some difference between Win and Mac.
So it prompts me that somehow you need to install Ps CS4 on the machine to get the patch installation through updater. Although this is not Ps forum, would you mind telling what error/issues are you facing while installing Ps CS4?
Regards,
Ankush

    First off, did you download the right Camera Raw 5.5?  If you go to the Camera Raw 5.5 updates page, I think the downloadable there is for Photoshop.  There should be a line that has a link to a Photoshop Elements download page.
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4582
    If you installed ACR before then you know the procedure.  Just in case you don't, try this:
    Here's what I do for ACR installs:
    I navigate to the PSE/Plugins/file formats folder.
    I rename the existing Camera Raw.8bi to Camera Raw.8bi.old
    I download the ACR 5.5
    Right-click on the zipped folder and select Extract All...
    I right-click on and select copy for the Camera Raw.8bi file
    I then right-click in an open area of the File Formats folder and select Paste.
    I open PSE6 and drag a couple of NEF's to it.  ACR opens and shows the NEFs ready for editing.
    That's it.  My understanding has always been that installing ACR updates is not your normal 'install' like with other programs.  It's a copy/paste of one file.
    Hope that works for you....

  • Camera Raw 5.7 Update will not install

    I have a MacBook Air with Bridge 4. The Camera Raw 5.7 Update will not install. I've tried it both through Help/Updates and Software Update. Any ideas?

    You can also install it manually.
    Be sure to have the latest download, then open the DMG file (should do so automatic) and grab the plug in file to drag it in the correct place.
    This is the path:
    Library (That is on root level, not your user account library!) / Application Support/ Adobe? Plug-ins / CS4 / File Formats.
    In this folder should only be one version present and it is called "Camera Raw.plugin" Under info it should say version 5.7.

  • Using the New Mac Pro (can) - AE will not let me use Race Traced 3-D

    Using the New Mac Pro (can) - AE will not let me use Race Traced 3-D
    Hi, I'm using the new Mac Pro
    2.7 GHz 12-core Intel Xeon E5
    64 GB 1867 MHz DDR3
    AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB
    OSX 10.9.2
    I'm using After Effects 12.2.1.5
    When I attempt to invoke the race trace 3D renderer in a comp, I get this error
    "After Effects Error: Ray-traced 3D: Out of paged mapped memory for ray tracer. Your project may exceed GPU limits. Try closing other applications. Try updating the CUDA driver. (5070::2)"
    My preferences are set to use the CPU for Raytraced 3D since I do not have an Nvidia card.
    So, obviously there is an issue here in that it thinks I have an Nvidia card.
    I know (or assume I know) the cause for this is that when I set up this machine, I used Apple's migration assistant to move most of my data over from the previous gen Mac Pro which DID have a CUDA card.
    So my question is, what files can I delete/reset to cause After Effects to no longer look for CUDA files that do not exist on this machine?
    I do not have the CUDA control panel in System Prefs, so THAT did not carry over.
    Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!

    > I know (or assume I know) the cause for this is that when I set up this machine, I used Apple's migration assistant to move most of my data over from the previous gen Mac Pro which DID have a CUDA card.
    Ugh. That causes so many problems.
    The first thing to try is deleting the CUDA frameworks from your Mac: Look in /Library/Frameworks for the CUDA.Framework and get rid of it.

    I have been having the same issue for the last two weeks. No real indication as to why it ever began other than I had turned off my router and Airport Extreme Base Station off for a weekend while I was away from my place.
    iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, all have no issues at all with my Airport Extreme Base Station. Can stay connected throughout my living room, bathroom, bedroom, no issues whatsoever.
    My 5 month old MacBook Pro 2.66 GHz Core i7 Airport is sometimes perfect, able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue. Then, for no reason, I won't be able to join my wireless network, or when I can join, I can't pick up an IP address. And then it will connect, pick up and IP, and then it won't browse. No real rhyme or reason to when this will happen, or when it works.
    I thought that it was an issue with my MacBook Pro, but then my sister visited with her brand new MacBook Pro 2.26 Intel Core 2 Duo, and while a month ago she was able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue, this weekend she had all of the same issues I was having.
    My XBOX 360 and MacBook Pro have absolutely no issues with the wired connection. Only my WAN seems to have this issue.
    Did you ever find anything more to this?

Yesterday I installed itunes for the first time on my new netbook which is a 64 bit (windows 7) system and it works just fine. i have three other laptops (all window 7) in my household that are all 64 bit operating systems and ALL have updated to 10.5 and THEY ALL work fine. this is FOUR 64 bit systems ALL updated w/10.5 that work and ONE that is a 32 bit that will not. Can't get any help from apple. their suppot *****! I want to get someone on the **** phone or a live chat but cant. *** APPLE????? please let mw know if you find SOMETHING i can try next. I'm out of ideas and patience!

  • I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

    I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

    Hi, I'm helping StringSinger2 with this problem.
    The previously installed version is Pages 3.0.3 (the same as from iWork 08). This version (Pages 3.0.3/iWork 08) is incompatible with Pages 5.
    That is why it would be helpful to install iWork 09, which is the version between the two. It will open the older 08 files, and its saved files are readable by the new Pages5.
    SO...
    When I try to install iWorks 09 from my retail DVD the error message is "the installer is damaged". (I know the dvd is good, I installed iWorks09 to my laptop today.) Is the "installer" part of the system files? And - If that is damaged is there a patch for that?
    Many Thanks!

    That was probably caused by your Firewall blocking the newly installed version of Firefox.
    No known security issues with Firefox 3.6.17, which was just released this past week.

  • Updates will not install using App Store on 10.7.5

    Updates will not install using the App Store.  I am using a MacBook Pro on 10.7.5.  When I click the button labeled "update" in App Store, the little wheel in the upper left-hand corner continues to spin forever (I waited 12 hours one time) but nothing happens.  No updates will install.  My Macbook Pro has always operated without issues since I bought it new in 2009, and I have a reliable, fast internet connection.
