Trying to upgrade Camera Raw- Elements file agent won't allow

While trying to upgrade Camera Raw, Elements 5.0 has an error message that says to turnoff Elements 5.0 File agent. I cannot find this anywhere. I use CS3 and Elements 5.0 but cannot upgrade to the new camera raw. Any one know how to shut off Photoshop Elements 5.0 file agent.exe ???
Thanks.

The file PhotoshopElementsFileAgent.exe is located in C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 5.0. It may be on the list of Windows XP
Services. Possibly also listed as Adobe Active File Monitor or Adobe Active
File Monitor V5. Set any and all of these services to 'Disabled'.
Additionally, it is a good idea to go to Elements Organizer preferences and
uncheck 'Automatically check for Services' and also uncheck 'Auto Launch
Adobe File Downloader on Device Connect'.
And, yes, ACR 4.3.1 should be manually installed. As a matter of fact, turn
off the automatic updater service, too (in >Help).

    The "Save image" command just saves (really converts) the original raw into another raw format : the DNG format created by Adobe to get a universal raw format instead of a specific raw format for each camera in the range of each camera manufacters... Using that feature is your choice.
    And what you see in the bottom line : 8 bits or 16 bits has nothing to do with a preview, it is the choice of 'color depth' for the image the converters sends to the editor.
    So, your choice is either :
    - to click 'Done' which saves the settings of your conversion (white balance, exposure, clarity...) to a very small 'sidecar' file of the xmp type
    - to 'Open' in the editor where you can work with all features of the editor (which include saving the output file in any format - jpeg - psd - tiff - png...

  • Camera Raw .CR2 file download failure from new Canon650D

    I have the new model Canon650D and cannot download Camera Raw CR2 files into Photoshop Elements 10. I get a "program error" message on screen. I have tried converting to DNG files but get same error message. I have downloaded latest upgrades for Camera Raw plug-ins in Adobe Application Manager and evidently have the latest 6.7 version available. Is there a later upgrade or do I have to wait until Adobe catch up?

    You have two alternatives:
    (1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software) Try a differnt download (7.3 the latest) if DNG did not work before.
    Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.3
    Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.3
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • Can't open Camera Raw (CR2) files in Photoshop CS3?

    I can't seem to open Camera Raw CR2 files in Photoshop CS3, my CameraRaw plug in version says it's 4.6 - any help appreciated.

    Have you tried opening up out of Bridge? If that doesn't work you may new need to download a new driver from Canon. All my peripherals are Canon and I am always having to download new drivers everytime I update. Fortunatly they are really easy to find on Canon's site.

  • Unable to upgrade Camera Raw with CS4 in Lion...

    Hi All,
    very frustrating; I have been unable to upgrade Camera Raw despite several attempts.
    I've downloaded the latest version as an upgrade; I've done Software upgrades through PhotoShop, but for some
    reason these do not seem to have taken, ie., the version of ACR in Bridge preferences remains 5.0.
    This makes it impossible for the computer (a brand new MacBook Pro) to read or convert to DNG raw files
    from a Nikon D300S.
    Oddly, ACR 5.0 converts raw files from a D700 just fine.
    Also puzzling is that my attempt to upgrade to ACR 5.7 in a 5 month old iMac have been smooth as silk (OS 10.6.7)
    Help!

    At one point, I was one of the most vocal critics of camera raw in the CS4 / Lightroom v2 days. In short, I felt that there was not enough control over noise reduction and fine detail rendition when processing digital camera raw files, especially at higher ISOs, although I had been quite pleased with earlier versions. That all changed when CS5 / LR v3 was released. You now have an enormous amount of control over exactly how much sharpening and how much noise reduction will be applied to an image. The amount of fine detail one can extract from a low-ISO raw file is extraordinary. When you crank up the ISO and an image gets noisy, you now can choose whether or not you prefer a smoother look at the expense of some of the more subtle texture details, or a slightly grainier look where one has a feeling that no significant fine details are lost from the original capture (what I prefer). The raw processing defaults in Adobe's latest software are good starting points, but for my personal tastes, I generally do modify them a bit with less NR and slightly more sharpening at a smaller radius.
    Even out-of-camera JPEG files will benefit from the new processing engine. I find that turning down the sharpening and NR in-camera, and then applying some subtle tweaking in LR, for example, makes for much better looking images even when starting from a JPEG. If you are a raw shooter, like I am, then upgrading to the latest Photoshop and Lightroom is absolutely 100% worthwhile in my opinion!
    I personally feel that the quality of raw conversions in Adobe's latest software are pretty much the best there are. I have used many other raw converters (Capture One, Aperture, RAW Developer, Silky Pix, Canon's DPP etc.), and while each have their strengths, overall I far prefer the look of the final image from Adobe's latest software. Sure, I might find the colour rendition slightly better, in some cases, from some other raw converters, but colour I can fix. Poor detail rendition or heavy-handed/crude noise reduction I cannot.
    EDIT: Also should mention how good the lens correction controls are. Not only are there automatic lens corrections available (possibly of limited use with an M8 due to potential lack of lens EXIF information), but the manual corrections are extremely useful. Chromatic aberration, vignetting, highlight fringing and distortion control all work extremely well and are minimally harmful to image quality, unlike performing those same corrections in Photoshop after the raw conversion stage. You also have excellent perspective corrections that, amazingly enough, seem to have very little impact on image quality even when fairly dramatic adjustments are made.
    Lastly, I own both Noise Ninja and Topaz DeNoise and since upgrading to Adobe's latest software, I don't think I have felt the need to use either of those two third party NR plugins once. Purely from a noise reduction standpoint, upgrading to CS5 or LR v3 is almost like getting a new camera, almost like moving from a cropped sensor to a full-frame as far as high-ISO image quality.
    I would suggest you download Lightroom v3 and give the 30 trial version a whirl. Spend some time in the Detail section of the Develop module and make sure that for each image you are looking at, ones that you may have edited in previous versions of Camera Raw or Lightroom, that you have "2010(Current)" chosen in the "Process:" section of the CameraCalibration tab in Develop. That will ensure that you are fully benefitting from the latest raw conversion engine. Zoom in to 100% before you tweak the Detail settings to make sure you are seeing actual pixel-level detail. I think you may be amazed at what you can do...

  • IPhoto '09 not importing Camera Raw (.CR2) files

    Recently purchased a new Mac Pro and tried to import my Camera Raw files from a supported camera. iPhoto refuses to import (unrecognized file format) files. Does anyone know the solution? I have over 1,700 camera raw (.CR2) files I need to import.

    Larry,
    Cameras were Canon 20D and 50D. Until yesterday both were using the sRAW color space - switched them to Adobe RAW today. Problem was the 1,700 pictures with sRAW colorspace taken over the past few years - no issue importing into Adobe Photoshop CS4 (not surprising at it uses its own libraries), problem was only with iPhoto. I had what iPhoto reported as the latest update to Camera Raw, however when I browsed the Apple support pages I found v3.0 which I installed. That fixed the problem as it now has sRAW support for Canon cameras.
    Only issue that remains is importing of DNG formatted pictures. iPhoto will not import those, which is hard to understand as it is becoming the defacto cross platform format for RAW files.
    I don't recall having this issue on my older MacBook using an older version of iPhoto and older libraries...
    Anyway, good news is that v3.0 fixed the problem.
    Thanks.

  • Problem using/upgrading camera raw

    I have Windows 7/64 bit. When I first installed Photoshop CS5, I immediately upgraded Camera Raw. Later, after opening Bridge from Photoshop, I found I could not get Bridge to open a file in Camera Raw. I knew that Raw was working because I had previously opened an Adobe lesson file using it. When I attempted to open one of my files I received an error message: "Bridge's parent application is not active". I have since learned that Bridge will only open a file in Raw, if Bridge is initiated from the 32bit version of Photoshop (or if the 32bit version of Photoshop is open). OK, I thought I'd solved the problem, ie open both the 32bit and 64bit versions of photoshop and then access to Raw is fine. However, I then decided to upgrade Camera Raw in the 32bit version of Photoshop. When I then attempted to open what I thought was the 32bit version, I got the 64bit version instead and, of course, lost the access to Raw.
    I've only learned this after uninstalling and re-installing several times. I'm now not willing to upgrade Camera Raw for fear of losing access to it again. This is not a very satisfactory situation.
    Does anyone understand what is going on, and whether there is a work-around?
    Thanks
    Grahame M

    There's nothing wrong here. You only all too quickly updated it. You need to run PS at least once, and open an image via ACR (the one that it installs by default), so it configures itself. Once that has happened, updates should go smoothly without all the higgledy-piggledy. For more specific guidance ask in the ACR and Photoshop forums.

  • Error U44M2P24 when trying to install Camera Raw 6.7

    I'm trying to install Camera Raw 6.7 in OS X Lion 10.7.3 and keep getting error message U44M2P24 stating that the installation failed. I've tried re-downloading the installer and trying again after a restart, but it still doesn't work.

    Have you tried to download and install directly from Adobe, instead of using the Updater in PS?

  • I just found an error in the file name for my Camera Raw Cache file.  How do I correct it?

    I just found an error in the file name for my camera raw cache file.  The error is in my username.  I don't know how to correct the error or if I should just leave it.  I'm not sure where my cache file is stored on my computer.  Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you

    Since you are on a Mac if when you first set up your account you left out the i in Wilson nothing you do will change that. The REAL account name will always be alicewlson. Once an account is created you can't actually change the name of it. You can change the name that is displayed but not the REAL account name.
    Simplest thing to do is stop worrying about it. Everything is as it should be, that is except Wilson being spelled without the i.

    I believe I made the error in my user name when I first got my computer a year ago. I then corrected it under my user name but not in my Lightroom files. I also looked for files with a .lrdata extension and didn't find any.

    Okay, now your in the right library.Use the plugin from this page to replace the existing one in your screenshot.
    (don't forget to remove the plugin folder and plugin you created in your user library)http://helpx.adobe.com/bridge/kb/acr-84-bridge-cs6-metadata.htmlThen you'll probably need to purge the Bridge CS6 cache.http://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-6306475-630487/450-209/Untitle d-1.png

  • Where do I find the Camera Raw settings file?

    I've been running Creative Suite 3 on a MacBook Pro. I just bought a Mac Pro so got my disks off the shelf to install on the new machine. That's when I found I have to deactive the programmes on the laptop in order to install them on the tower. (Which strikes me as outrageously restrictive. How many people work on a tower at home and a laptop for the road?)
    Having gone throught the deactivation/activation process, I opened Photoshop to process some NEF files, and then remembered that my Camera Raw settings were somewhere on the laptop - but where ??? I assume there must be a file somewhere, but have not so far been able to find it.
    Any ideas gratefully received.

    By "Camera Raw Settings file", I take it that you are looking for the develop settings for each raw file. These settings can be stored in two ways. The first and most common method is to store them as sidecar *.xmp files in the same directory as the NEFs. The other method is to store them in a centrally located Camera Raw database. One can change these methods via the Edit Preferences menu of either Photoshop or Camera Raw. Further information is here:
