Uninstall Camera Raw 5.6?
On a Windows system how do you uninstall Camera Raw 5.6? I have installed it and now when exporting files to Photomatix the resulting HDR photos look horrible.
Go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats
Remove the 5.6 plug-in and drop the 5.5 version back in.

How do you Uninstall Camera Raw 5.5 and 5.6 updates
My 5.5 Raw Update was working well, then I decided to update to the 5.6 Raw plugin. I was not happy with the colors and sharpness of the images opened with the 5.6 plugin. I would like to thrash this and get back to 5.5. However, PS E does not allow me to open any RAW images now and the Camera Raw Preference in Bridge does not open. New updates cannot be installed either as my system say I have the 5.6 plugin installed. How do I uninstall everything and get back to my 5.5 update? I cannot find the location of my 5.6 Raw plugin, I have looked under PS 4 Photoshop application folders as well as Bridge folders. Thanks for your help.
Finally, my problem was solved by Adobe Support, go to : www.tinyurl.com/yfznztk and hit Enter. Then manually download Camera Raw 5.5 plugin from their site. Once its on your desktop highlight the "Plugin". Copy this Plugin ( Command C), then open your Hard disk on the desktop and go to Application Support-Adobe CS4-File Format- hit command V to load the Camera Raw 5.5 into the Plugin Folder. Then re-start computer. Now, you should have a working Camera Raw 5.5. Do not download the Camera Raw 5.6 as it is a Beta version meant for developers!

Uninstalling Camera Raw 8.4 RC CC
Can soemone please tell me the necessary steps to remove Camera Raw 8.4 RC for Photoshop CC completely so that I can restore Photoshop back to using Camera Raw 8.3. I use MacOSX 10.92 .
Thanks
Trevor CraigI think the official process to go back to the previous non-beta ACR would be to uninstall PS-CC and any other Adobe app that uses ACR, then reinstall those and reupdate them to the current ACR version using the Updates process from within the apps.
You could try installing ACR 8.3 from one of the direct links on this page, but I don't know if it'll let you downgrade versions that way:
http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2011/03/keeping-photoshop-up-to-date.html#notconnected
If you can find the Camera Raw.plugin file on your computer associated wtih PS-CC then there might also be a way to extract and rename the large resource file from the DMG at the above link and copy it over the top of your current Camera Raw plug-in file. I have done this on a PC but don't know what the specific file names and paths are on a Mac to be more specific. -
Uninstall camera raw 7.3RC and reinstall cameral raw 7.2
I think camera raw 7.3rc is causing problems with my plugins. I woyuld like to get back to cameral raw 7.2.
How can i do that?I'm going to reply regardless of whether or not you decide to update us. Lightroom does not use the Camera Raw plugin. Never has, never will. Camera Raw is a plugin for Photoshop and Photoshop Elements. But all of that technology is part of the core program for Lightroom. The only thing you need to do is apply updates to the program as they are released from Adobe. Whenever there is a new major release (next one will be Lightroom 5) you will have to purchase the upgrade. But the updates that will be released for Lightroom 4 will be available to you at no cost. At the present time there is Lightroom 4.2 RC (release candidate) that is available. It seems to be pretty stable on my system. But there is nothing more recent than that.

I get messages telling me that I should download and install Camera Raw 5.4. But when I download it and try to install it, I get a message in a popup windown telling me there is an error and it will not install giving me the option of trying again, doing it later, or aborting. When I go to Photoshop CS4 my plugin shows Camera Raw twice. When I click on the first installance (help-plug-in), I have a window popup telling me that it is Camera Raw 5.3.0.15, when I click on the second instance of Camera Raw, I get an error message telling me that it already exists.
Is there a way of uninstalling Camera Raw plugin, and installing the new Camera Raw 5.4? Or, do I want to have both of them in which case, how do I install Camera Raw 5.4?Search all the directories under your c:\Program Files\ for camera raw.8bi
(or camera*.8bi) and see how many you find.
If you only find one and it's in:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats
then there aren't really multiple copies and I'm not sure what you tell you.
If you find more than one, then try renaming the one not in the directory
listed, above, to
Camera Raw.8bi.err or something then try the camera-raw 5.4 upgrade, again. -
Can't install camera raw 4.1 on Mac
I have an Intel iMac running OS 10.4.10, Photoshop CS3 and Bridge CS3.
I couldn't make Camera Raw work, and it did not appear in ...Adobe/Plug-ins/CS3/FileFormat as it is supposed to do. In fact, there is no such folder in Library/Application Support...
There is, however, a folder: Adobe/CameraRaw/Defaults/Preferences.xmp. A similar thing appears in the Photoshop CS3 in Appplication Support, but it has a bunch of Presets as well
In the drop-down menu in Bridge "Open in Camera Raw" appears, but it is always grayed out.
When I first went to open Camera Raw and I had this trouble I couldn't find the CR Plug-in where it seemed to belong, so I uninstalled Camera Raw. (The two folders above seem to have gotten left behind). Then I downloaded it afresh. However, the download has no read me, and it did not install itself where it belongs. It is just sitting on the desktop in a folder named DNG_Camera_Raw_4.1.dmg. In it are the two icons:
b /Volumes/DNG_Camera_Raw_4_1/Adobe DNG Converter.app
b /Volumes/DNG_Camera_Raw_4_1/Camera Raw.plugin.
Where should I move them to? I am especially puzzled because I do not have the proper Application Support folder. Is there a way out of this other than uninstalling and reinstalling all of Photoshop?I did that long since, but it didn't help.
Someone suggested that I purge my cache, but that looks like a pretty scary thing to do.
Will it remove all the photo icons in Bridge? How will I find anything?
I have to ask all these questions because in this whole mess both photoshop and bridge help have disappeared. I keep getting a message:
b This topic is in the Help system of another product. To view the topic, install that product. file:///Library/Application%20Support/Adobe/Help/en_US/Bridge/2.0/toc.html
This maakes no sense at all: What product?
It refers me to Apple help on line, but there is no solution there. I will phone Support tomorrow, and perhaps there will be someone there who knows what this is about. The About for Adobe Help 1.0 and 1.1, when I bring them up in Spotlight, both claim they belong to Photoshop.

Do I need to uninstall CS3 for Camera Raw to work on a trial CS4
I have CS4 on trial and have downloaded camera raw plug - i am not able to open my raw files do I need to uninstall CS3 for this to work?

You are looking at the WRONG Library, Catherine. What you describe is the Library in your user folder (home folder) and you don't want that.
You want the Library at the ROOT level of your hard disk, not your user Library.
This image shows ACR 4.x installed for CS3:
Click on thumbnail for full-size image. Command-Click on thumbnail for faster opening in a new browser tab.
And here's the Path for ACR 5.2 in CS4, which is the same for ACR 5.3:
Catherine Cotton 1 wrote:
- is there an easier way to install this -
No.
If you have CS3 only and your camera is not supported by ACR 4.6, then you also need to download the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 5.3 which does not need any version of Photoshop to run. You need to launch it, convert your raw files to DNGs, then open the DNGs in Camera Raw 4.6 hosted by CS3.
Here's a list of which version of Camera Raw supports which camera models:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb407111&sliceId=2
You can skip the DNG Converter step if you upgrade to Photoshop 11.0.1 ("CS4") and update to ACR 5.3, which is a far more powerful and versatile version of Camera Raw. -
Uninstalling Digital Camera Raw Compatibility Update 3.2 (5.5MB)
I need to uninstall Digital Camera Raw Compatibility Update 3.2 (5.5MB) file from my computer. Any help as to how I can do that???
Hi again...
Sorry not got a definitive answer for you, but I see no one else has responded yet... perhaps it cant be done..... I am fairly confident that there's no way you can remove a duff update through Time Machine...
Do you have a vault back up...? Vaults will restore all your images plus all the versions you created and every adjustment you have ever made... in short... everything.... you have ever done in Aperture....
If not.... ouch...!
You might have to seek help from an Apple genius in your local Apple store...
Hopefully someone here will have an answer for you..
Hoping..... Gerry... -
I've installed bridge and they don't open in that. I cleaned up my programs and removed a bunch of unnecessary junk, could I have removed something I needed? The camera raw files are CR2 from a Canon D6.
I've spent far too much time trying to figure this out, so any suggestions are much appreciated.
Thanks!Thanks, Barbara, that did the trick! I deleted the old file rather than renaming it. I was in fact trying to install 5.6.
Cheers,

After I launch Camera Raw to do additional retouching work the cursor/SW freezes. Only way out of the problem is to do a hard restart. It happens every time now. Using Windows 8.1. Any ideas and solutions? Thanks.
It will pop up with a window asking if you want to clear the preferences. You must press Ctrl+Alt+Shift immediately after initiating ACR by pressing "open with Camera Raw."
I haven't heard of any bugs in the ACR 8.7 for CC, but that doesn't mean that there aren't. -
Opening tiff photos in Adobe Camera Raw
I can not open my tiff files / photos in Adobe Camera Raw. I am using CS6 that has been completely updated with all the current updates. I go to Bridge, highlight a tiff thumbnail photo and go up the file drop down menu. The open in raw selection is grayed out and I can not select it. It works fine with jpeg files, and I can open raw files without problems. It just won't work with tiff files. I have gone to preferences and selected the option to open all supported tiff flles but this did not work either.
I have uninstalled Photoshop and Bridge and reinstalled it and updated it all again and it still will not let me open tiff files in Camera Raw.
Any ideas?I am more apt to beleive the issue is with the tif files themselves. Not all tif files are equal. It depends on the compression, bit mode and so forth. Can the tiff files be opened in photoshop? if so, then that just maybe the problem. if not, then the file itself maybe corrupt. But I am leaning towards the settings used when saving the file.

I updated my creative cloud apps last week. Now when I try to open a raw image (CR2's that work a week ago), photoshop opens then crashes before camera raw can open? I have also tried to open images from bridge and it does the same thing?
I have uninstalled and reinstalled both photoshop and bridge? I spent over an hour on the phone with tech support in India and the tech couldn't find the problem? I am suppose to hear from someone above him in the next few days. I am so frustrated with Adobes lack of support for their product!OMFG! I have spent hours trying to figure this out also.
Adobe thought it was a permissions issue.
Thanks for the post. -
"Edit In" Photoshop CC not working for RAW or DNG files after applying LR 5.3 and Camera Raw 8.3
I just applied the Lightroom 5.3 and Camera Raw 8.3 updates and now am no longer able to open RAW or DNG files into Photoshop CC. When I select a file and choose "Edit In" Photoshop, photoshop will launch, then nothing will happen. After 2 to 5 minutes, an error will popup in Lightroom saying "The file could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop CC could not be launched." An error I've never seen before. When I click "Ok", Lightroom will show that it's "preparing a file for editing" in the upper left, it will create and save a psd to disk and in the catalog (another new behavior), then it will open in photoshop. All other file types (jpgs, tiff, psd) seem to work/open fine between applications. No difference if I open photoshop prior to selecting "Edit In". Selecting "Edit In" other applications, like Viveza, work fine.
I tried first deleting preference files in both applications. No luck. Ditto for plugins. Notta. Eventually I completely uninstalled and fresh installed Photoshop, Lightroom, and Bridge from the cloud. Same deal...can't open raw/dng files into Photoshop.
I'm at a complete loss, dead in the water, with a mountain of editing work piling on top of me. Kicking myself for applying the upgrades, which I had been delaying for some time to avoid just such a cluster%#$. Ugh.
I'm on a PC running Windows 7 64bit.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.In the normal situation, LR needs to see a PS installed for it to detect the Edit In PS option is possible, so if you uninstall both, then install PS, first, then LR. Of course with this release there may be some hiccup that requires installing either one or the other, again, but if you've uninstalled both and are reinstalling both, then install PS, first.

Can't open files in Camera Raw while in Bridge CS6
05/30/2014
Believe this issue/problem happened after automatic update from Adobe (but can't be sure).
Have always uploaded files from camera into Bridge then do some editing by opening JPEG and RAW (NEF) files in Camera Raw from Bridge.
Now, "Open in Camera Raw" is greyed out and I am unable to find a way to open files with Camera Raw from inside Bridge CS6. This seemed to happen suddenly and without any new software or applications being added to computer. All other apps/software working well.
Have tried various fixes found on Adobe community discussions without success. Problem now ongoing for over a week +.
Am able to open files in Photoshop with no problem but want to be able to do some quick edits using Camera Raw opening files from Bridge CS6.
I'm using Bridge CS6 Version 5.0.2.4. (as part of Adobe Creative Suite 6). Updater states I have most current version of Bridge installed.
I'm using an iMac computer with Intel Core i7 processor
OS X 10.8.5
Have found others with this same or very similar problems on forums but either can't understand patches/directions or unable to complete instructions on my computer.
for example see: Camera RAW update issue with Bridge CS6
From that link/discussion, one finds this "solution":
After you update to Camera Raw 8.4, Bridge CS6 in Mac OS doesn't display image metadata or allow you to edit images in Camera Raw.
To the top
Manually install the Camera Raw 8.4 plug-in.
Exit Adobe Bridge.
Download the file below.
Locate and double-click the downloaded file to decompress it. The resulting file is Camera Raw.plugin.
Navigate to the Macintosh HD folder.
Open the Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS6/File Formats folder.
IMPORTANT: Navigate to the root Library folder on your hard disk, not the Library folder under your user folder.
Copy the Camera Raw.plugin from step 3 into the File Formats folder.
IMPORTANT: This new file overwrites the file already in this folder. It's important that only one Camera Raw.plugin file is in this folder.
Open Adobe Bridge.
Camera Raw.plugin.zip
Mac OS Camera Raw 8.4 plug-in for manual installation
However, when I try the above, I have these issues:
1. When I double click on the downloaded file, my computer opens PhotoShop and an error message is displayed that states "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." (I suspect this may mean my computer has automatically decompressed the file, but I am not certain of that).
2. Not completely certain I know how to "Navigate to the Macintosh HD folder" as suggested in step 4. above (OK, I'm new to Mac; long-time PC user….)
3. When I am in "Finder" and click on "GO" while holding down "Option" key, I find "Library". within that, I can find "Library/Application Support/Adobe" but there is no "Plug-Ins" folder within the "Adobe" subfolder.
4. Not sure how to tell if I am in the "root Library" on my hard disk vs. "Library under my user folder". (Again, new to Mac….)
I have NOT yet tried doing an "Uninstall" and then Re-installing the whole Adobe Creative Suite 6 and would like to avoid that if possible.
Would absolutely LOVE it if Adobe would simply push an update that would fix this problem or if someone would explain to me how I could restore the earlier version that worked perfectly for me.
Any help, suggestions (in very basic, simple terms that any idiot new to the world of Macintosh can understand) would be appreciated. Very frustrated with Adobe at the moment.
Mostly have liked the switch to Mac, but with this and my photo workflow coming to a screeching halt, having second thoughts. (But I suppose Adobe update for PC may cause problems as well.)
Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.05/30/2014
Literally minutes after I posted the above, I figured this out myself and now I'm a happy camper and things are back to normal!
Here was my error/issue: as a new Mac user, I was not negotiating/finding files on my hard drive correctly.
In case there are others out there with this same issue (and as dense as I apparently am ):
Here is what I did that resulted in a fix:
First Steps:
1. Quit/close Bridge
2. As noted in post above, go to this link to download Camera Raw Plugin file:
Camera RAW update issue with Bridge CS6
Link to get to download is near end of instructions, but I will attempt to insert that link to download here:
Camera Raw.plugin.zip
3. Once file has been downloaded, find it by using "Finder" Click on "Finder" and look on list of options on left side of Finder window to find "Downloads". On my computer, when clicking on "Finder" these options appear in the list at the left:
All My Files
Airdrop
Applications
Desktop
Documents
Downloads
Movies
Music
Pictures
4. Download you just did should be at or near the top of your downloads list and should be named as "Camera Raw.plugin" and will be 83.5 MB in size
5. I right-clicked (two fingers on touchpad) to bring up drop down options and selected "Copy 'Camera Raw.plugin'" from that list to copy file.
Now, you have copied the plug in that will fix this issue. The second set of steps below will walk you through how to replace the file that is on your hard drive with this plug in file that you have copied.
Second set of steps (and this is where, as a new Mac user, I was confused initially)
1. Again, click on "Finder" on your Mac
2. On top of screen, find "GO" and click on that. (You should see "Finder" in the upper right corner of your screen, then "File, Edit, View, GO, Window, Help" Click on the GO
3. In drop down menu that appears, click on "Computer"
4. Then, double click on "Macintosh HD" to open your hard drive
5. Next, double click on "Library" folder to open that.
6. Next, click on "Application Support" folder to open that.
7. Then, double click on "Adobe" folder to open that.
8. Then, double click on "Plug Ins" folder to open that
9. Now, double click on "CS6" to open that folder.
10. Finally, double click on the "File Formats" folder that appears.
11. NOW, you should see this:
12. Right click (two finger press if using a touch pad) to open window with options. Select "Paste Item" by clicking on that option.
13. You will be prompted with an option to keep existing file OR replace the file. Choose "Replace" to past the new "Camera Raw.plugin" file to this folder.
Finally, if you now go back and open Bridge CS6, you should be good to go.
Hope that helps someone out there.
Hopefully future updates will from Adobe will be better. -
Could not complete the camera raw command because of disk error
Hi,
First off, I am using a Mac (OS X ver. 10.9.2) and Adobe Creative Cloud Photoshop (2014). I just downloaded the preset pack off VSCO for Adobe Camera RAW and I am having trouble getting it to work.
When I try to launch the "Camera Raw Filter", I get the message 'Could not complete the Camera Raw Filter command because of a disk error.' (this also happens sometimes when i try to import the RAW files into photoshop...I don't know if it's the way i'm importing them or what...?)
I've tried uninstalling and re-installing photoshop cc several times and restarting my computer and have searched online but cannot find anything at all to help me (or i just don't understand, urgh).
Please help!I'm getting same error and I think it's related to Adobe Camera Raw. I see several manifestations of this problem:
1) Open a RAW file (.NEF) directly using Photoshop CC 2014 - I get an error "Could not complete your request because of a disk error."
2) In Photoshop CC 2014. I go to Filter > Camera Raw Filter - I get an error "Could not complete the Camera Raw Filter command because of a disk error."
I can do the following successfully:
1) Open and edit a RAW file successfully in Lightroom 5.7
2) Open a RAW file successfully in Photoshop from Lightroom 5.7 (when I do an "Edit in Photoshop CC 2014" from Lightroom 5.7)
I was previously on LR3 and Photoshop CS5 on Mac OSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) and bought an upgraded MacBook Pro last week.
My upgraded system is now:
Mac OSX 10.10.1 (Yosemite)
Photoshop CC 2014
Lightroom 5.7
I've uninstalled / reinstalled Photoshop and Lightroom numerous times and the problem still occurs.
Anyone else having the same problem?
