Unable to view camera RAW files on Windows 7 and CS4 - Have tried updates

All working OK until 8 days ago, then bridge just disappeared completely. Looked like it had opened but would disappear when I clicked on the icon. Re-installed, Bride now visable but unable to view .CR2 files in camrea RAW or in Photoshop, comes up as "unable to open". Have tried to install the 5.7 camera raw update, extract files, click on application, then photoshop opens and advises "invalid file type". Not sure what to do now and have a large number of weddin files slowly building up .... PLEASE HELP!!

When something works one day, but not the next, then something has changed. The task is to find out what that is.
Have you installed new hardware?
Have you installed new software?
Have you had any major updates installed?
Those are but a few things to ponder.
You might want to create a new System Restore Point (on a PC) for today, and then boot to Safe Mode, choosing System Restore, and choose a point, from at least 8 days before. Reboot, when prompted, and test. At the least, you have only lost a few minutes, as you can Restore to today's System Restore Point. The Mac has something called Time Machine, and I would think that it could do similar, but just do not know, as I am a PC-only guy.
Good luck,
Hunt

Can't view Camera RAW files in Bridge or Photoshop CS4 after upgrading to Mac Mavericks X OS.

After upgrading my Mac operating system to Mavericks X I can no longer view Camera RAW images on either Bridge or Photoshop CS4!
I'd already fixed the issue of not even being able to launch Photoshop by installing Apple's Java applet, but this doesn't seem to have helped with the Camera RAW situation.
I've tried invoking "Update" in both Bridge and Photoshop, and both indicate there are no updates.
I even went to Adobe's Camera RAW area, and downloaded and installed the Camera RAW plugin specifically for my cameras (Canon 5D Mk ii) and Photoshop CS4, and that hasn't helped at all!
I feel that it's just another silly Java applet, but I haven't any idea how to proceed from here!
HELP!
Thank you,
Bob

Did you download and install the camera raw 5.7 update?
Adobe - Photoshop : For Macintosh : Camera Raw 5.7 update
There are also other updates you should install, such as 11.0.2 for photoshop and the bridge output module update, if you need them.

New mac user, unable to open camera raw files in CS6

I'd really appreciate some simple 'idiot steps' that will enable me to open camera raw files (nefs) in CS6...
you will have to assume that I am an idiot and know nothing about Macs (one of which is true, the other debateable!)
thank you

Unable to view my raw files in iPhoto 09

Hi All,
Whenever I used to import photos (in iPhoto '08) from my Nikon D70s CF card, the raw files used to be automatically imported with my jpegs. They are available (I can see them in Finder) but only the jpegs are imported in iPhoto '09. Are they being hidden? Are they not being imported? Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks.

Are you sure they're not being imported? When you import a RAW iPhoto automatically creates a jpeg preview of the file. Select one of these jpegs in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select Show Original File. A Finder Window will open with the file selected. Is that you're RAW?
Regards
TD

Unable to view Mac User files in Windows Bootcamp

I've dual booted my Mac to run both Mac and Windows OS using Bootcamp - However I'm having an issue viewing my user files on my Mac in Windows and I cannot view my user files on my Windows in Mac.

Hi,
The D810 requires Camera Raw 8.6 or later - the latest version that is compatible with Photoshop Elements 12 is Camera Raw 8.5 as far as I can see.
You need to either buy a new version of Photoshop Elements or use the free Adobe DNG converter.
DNG Converter 8.8

Viewing Camera RAW files on iPod

This is more of a suggestion than an issue.
If Apple is going to release Aperture which is going to be a Raw file manager than it only follows that they must have a passing interest in photographers. As a working pro I've always backed up to an iPod during location shoots and I also always keep a copy of my portfolio images on it as well. I would LOVE to be able to see these images. There needs to be support for Raw and (unflat) PSD files which are the only files that photographers are really using. Jpegs are fine for consumers but you're missing the point here.
I'm actually now buying iPods as combination thank you and delivery hard drive for large jobs. Save me the hassle of converting 1700 Raw files into Jpegs just so they'll display on the screen.
Please.

I am unable to open pdf files in firefox, and I have tried all the solutions proposed by others. How can I re-enable pdf viewing in firefox?

I have recently switched to Firefox from Google Chrome, and I am finding that I am unable to open any pdf files from the web in any way in Firefox. I cannot download them and open them in Adobe Reader, and I cannot preview them in Firefox, nor can I use the Adobe plugin. I have tried to use the solutions posed by users on this site, but none of them have worked. Any time I make a change to settings to try to solve this issue, the change never allows me to view the pdf file, and the setting reverts to the previous setting after the browser has been restarted. I don't care how I view the file, but I need to either be able to view it as a preview or I need to be able to download it.

I don't know if this is any help I have had a problem where the pdf files were not opening correctly which I think was the problem here. I spent hours of head scratching and have now found out what the problem is. Right click on the Adobe Reader Icon on the desktop. Select properties and then the compatibility tab. You will see the uppermost section in this screen is Compatibility mode. I have Windows 7 and mine was set to Windows XP. I changed that to Windows 7 and now the problem is resolved. In short use the above instructions to check you are using the right compatibility mode for the version of Windows you are using and your troubles should be over!!

View Camera Raw files fine in Browser, but image not supported in Viewer

Hi,
I have a Canon EOS 20D camera and shoot in RAW format nearly all of the time. When I import those photos into Aperture 2.0.1 they import fine and all appear in the Browser window no problem. However, when I want to see them in the Viewer, either by double clicking a photo in the browser, or by having my monitor display both the Browser and the Viewer at the same time, the photo cannot be seen in the Viewer. I get "Unsupported Image Format" on the screen. Meanwhile, even if the Browser is on screen at the same time, the photos appear fine there.
Any ideas?
thanks

Two things you could try:
A) Re-build your library (hold down Alt + Command while starting Aperture).
B) Re-generate your perviews (hold down Alt while clicking the menu "Images", select "Generate Previews for Project).

My Bridge update 5.2.0.4 has wrecked previews for all DNG files. They appear only sideways and small and I can't open Camera Raw in Bridge. Anyone else have the same problem?

I updated Bridge yesterday. CS6 5.2.0.4. Mac OS 10.9.5
Now all previews (DNG files) in Bridge appear sideways and only small thumbnail size.
Also Camera Raw has been disabled.
I have tried purging cache for the folders as well as purging entire cache.
I have also spent over an hour on the phone to tech support which mainly involved being switched between departments and trying to understand anyone on the phone.
Can anyone help?

Your Performance preferences screen capture reveals you have a single hard drive with little available space to accommodate both the Photoshop scratch file and the swap files of the OS.
It's obvious that Bridge finds itself at times with insufficient space to build its cache.
However, it's unclear why that should affect only DNG files and not other type of image files. Puzzling, unless the DNG files are the only large image files you have.
Parts of the following may illustrate what happens when the scratch file is on your boot drive:
The rule of thumb I follow to figure out scratch space says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open. I have seen the scratch file exceed 800 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS. I also have 16 GB of RAM installed.
Additionally, if you only have a single HD, i.e. your boot drive, you'd need it to be large enough to accommodate both the swap files of the OS as well as Photoshop's scratch.

Hi
Hope someone can help me with this one, have a new computer with windows 7 as the operating system, have installed elements 7 and have now purchased the 50d, as i shoot in raw have tried to open the file but elements is unable to read the raw file, have looked on various threads and have downloaded the new version of raw, this version is saved in my download file directory, have copied across these files to the elements folder but i still cannot read my raw file for the 50d, is there something i have missed.
collisa

please have a look at the folllowing link about the isntallation of the camera raw plugin.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407344.html
be sure not to have the older version of camera raw plugin in the same folder as that of new one. dont even rename it. Remove it and store it in some other location in case you need to revert back the changes. The camera raw plugin is called : Camera Raw
thanks

I have a Nikon d610 and am using PS CS6. I am unable to download my raw files through Bridge on my mac. I have downloaded the most recent Camera Raw files - 8.7.1 - what should I do next.

I have a Nikon d610 and am using PS CS6. I am unable to download my raw files through Bridge on my mac. I have downloaded the most recent Camera Raw files - 8.7.1 - what should I do next.

The D610 needs ACR 8.3 so you are easily covered there. I am not entirely clear on the process you are using the bring the files onto your hard drive. The safest way is to simply bring all the NEF files into a folder on your hard drive, then find them with bridge and open from there.
If still stuck, open Photoshop, and go Help > About plugins > Camera RAW and check that 8.7 installed OK.

Get an Error window, The source folder does not contain any supported camera raw files

I am using CS2 and it would not open up my latest RAW files, I was getting a warning Could not complete your request because it is not the right kinds of document. So, I checked the Camera Raw Plug-in and it says Version 3.7. I see that my camera an Olympus E-20 is supported. But it is not opening the Raw files, the day before I took jpeg and they have opened. I will not trash my Adobe Photoshop CS2 because it was a royal pain to install and I don't know where the CD is.
I installed the latest DNG Converter and when I try to open up the folder which has all the RAW images that didn't open in Adobe, I still get an Error window that says, "The source folder does not contain any supported camera raw files." Why? It says it supports my Olympus E-20. I actually have the E-20n, I don't think that is the problem. My RAW icons usually show up as small image thumbnails and this time they are gray icons only with the incorrect date under the icon. Is there another product I can use without spending money? These images I took in RAW were special and I don't want to lose them. Please help!
Esther

Hello, I was using only CS2 with my Olympus E-20n for 5 years, no problem. It just started acting up in RAW this year. I downloaded Picasa that same day and now it seems to be opening up all of my RAW files that didn't open the other day. So, I think Picasa installed a new plug-in adaption to CS2 because now all my RAW icons have a new logo on them, the same one that's in Picasa. Strange, but it works now and I am not complaining anymore. I love CS2 and the many ways I can adjust RAW files, so I am using it, Picasa is a sideline now that I can take a look at many thumbnails and it organized all my photo files by the year and folders. Amazing free software. I have probably 60,000 images in my computer and an external hard drive and Picasa picked them all up and made a library, cool.

Help with error U44M1I210(unable to extract . . . . .) Also file location of Camera Raw in PS CC and location of compressed CC downloads

Adobe has not been a big help with this. If anyone knows what might be causing this error - great, pls post. Otherwise, in order to work the problem myself, I need to know the file locations of Camera Raw within PS CC and also the file location of where Adobe CC places the d/l'd compressed version. Thanks much, Gerry
