Upgraded to Lightroom 3.6, cannot import NEF files from D700

Hi!
I just upgraded my Lightroom to 3.6 on my MacBook pro running Lion. Since then, I cannot import my pictures anymore, either from the camera directly, through a compact flash reader (SanDisk) or by adding the picture directly from my hard-drive. The standard Mac utility to download images work fine.
Lightroom tells me that it cannot read the files, with Lithgtroom 3.5 it worked (nothing changed in the meantime Camera profiles, OS X, etc.).
You can find one NEF file I cannot import here (dropbox link) : http://db.tt/6zSiNzYK
Any idea?

Thank you Sean,
I'll try that once I'll have managed to get the import working. I created another catalog since last time I thought the import worked but again I got stuck.
Do you know anything else I could try? Ideally, do you know how  I could get a better diagnosis? By the way, I already got in touch with the CS but all I got was a lousy answer (update my ACR... for Lightroom -_- )
I'm using Lightroom since the first version and I start to really be discouraged.
Thanks for your help,

  • I have used lightroom for years on my PC and just installed it on my new iMac.  I cannot import NEF files from iPhoto or from my Lacie hard drive into Lightroom.  I have tried Lightroom Help but still cannot import NEF files.  What am I doing wrong?

    I have always used Lightroom with a PC and now have installed Lightroom 3.6 on my new iMac.  I cannot import raw (NEF) files from iPhoto (or from my Lacie drive for that matter into Lightroom. I have tried Lightroom Help to no avail. How do I import NEF files from the iMac into Lightroom?

    If they are the same nef files that you were importing into your PC, see if the reason is an error message like the thread above this one. Permissions issue.

  • Why does not Lightroom allow me to import RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark III?

    Error message that it does not support cr. file

    Which version of Lightroom?
    As Hal points out, if it's pre v 4.1, you can't expect an old version of the software to know what to do with a camera that didn't even exist when the software was released.
    Given how many times a day this same issue comes up, maybe it's time Adobe changed the error message to something like "your camera is too old to be supported by this version of Lightroom. Please upgrade" or similar... 

  • I have Elements 9 and cannot download NEF files from my new Nikon1 v1, any help appreciated

    I have Elements 0 and cannot download NEF files from my new Nikon1 V1, any help is appreciated.

    PSE 9 is too old for any of the versions of ACR that support the 1 V1. You have three options:
    1. Upgrade to PSE 10 or 11.
    2. Use the Nikon software to convert the raw files and send the resulting tiffs to PSE for further editing.
    3. Try the free Adobe DNG converter, and you should be able to open the resulting DNGs in your version of ACR.

    See my reply to a later simplified version of your question. I don't think that either iPhone or iPad recognize RAW files such as NEFs. And the iPhone is not designed to be a mass storage device like a portable flash or portabel hard drive for temporary storage of files, if that's what you're after.  As I mentioned in my previous reply, I have an iPad and have been experimenting with it as a tool for photography, hoping that it would be a nice travel tool for backing up and viewing photos from my Nikon dslr. But both the iPad and iPhone just are not set up to do that well. Both show photos nicely, but organization of photos is very frustrating since you can't create albums on the iPhone or iPad, but only back on your sync computer. (There is one very powerful photo organization app called SortShots, but you import photos to it and it organizes and stores the images wtihin the app not using the native photo app. It doesn't work with NEFs either.) I don't know of any RAW processing software for either device.

  • Cannot Load NEF files from Nikon D600

    I am running CS4 but cannot load NEF files from my Nikon D600 _ Camera Raw 5.7 is also installed. Any ideas on how to reslve. I was able to load from my D200 Camera.

    Hi. Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum.

  • Does iPhoto v9.4.3 import NEF files from nikon D600

    Does iPhoto v9.4.3 import NEF files from nikon D600? I've got CS5 Photoshop and dont want the expense of giving Adobe shed loads of money for CS6 just to import Nikon raw files. Anyone know??

    Yes if you apply the Digital Camera Update 4.01.

  • Pls help. My Camera Raw, CS6 and Lightroom won't read the NEF files from D610.

    I recently upgraded to Nikon D610 and the NEF files were not readable from my old version of Camera Raw, CS6 and Lightroom. So downloaded the recommended upgrades and I now have Camera Raw 8.4.0.199; Lightroom 5.3; CS6 13.01. But still did not read my D610 NEF's. Please help. Thanks.

    oh wait, i got it. Just in case for those who will have the same scenario. I downloaded the NEF files from my D610 using the old ViewNX 2.1 software and that was the cause of incompatibility. So i upgraded my ViewNX to 2.9 and downloaded my images again. And it worked this time.

  • Lightroom 4 does not import RAW files from D610

    I've just purchased Nikon D610, and my Lightroom 4 is not importing RAW files anymore. What is the problem?

    The current version of LR 5 is 5.7 so I’d guess LR 6 will be out at some point later this year, in the next few months.  If money’s no object then upgrade to LR 5, now and to LR 6 in a few months.  If you’ll be very upset to learn you’ve paid $80 to upgrade and then need to pay another upgrade fee for LR 6 then maybe wait and do the DNG thing for a few months, and then upgrade from LR4 to LR6.
    The other concern is whether your OS is new enough.  I’d suggest you download the latest LR 5.7.1 update and run that in trial mode for a few weeks—you have 30 days, to make sure your computer can handle it, before spending the money and finding out you need a new computer, first.
    The other thing to consider is the $10/month Photography Plan subscription which gets you the most up-to-date versions of Lightroom and Photoshop as long as you keep paying.  Since you have your old LR4 serial number, you can decide to cancel the subscription after a year and use the LR4 serial number to buy the LR 6 upgrade, then.  This assumes that LR 6 will be available as a serial-number-licensed product, still.
    The latest LR 5.7.1 update is here:

  • Lightroom 5 won't import RAW files from Nikon D7000

    Since the last two updates of Lightroom 5 I cannot import any RAW files from a Nikon D7000. I have imported thousands of photos previously in RAW from the same camera, and even iPhoto has no issues importing them. I just get an error every time, even though it shows a preview of the photos on the card.

    What error are you seeing when you try to import?

  • Cannot import video file from Canon Vixia hfs10 to imovie'11.

    Hi this is my first post on this site.
    I am having trouble trying to import video files from Canon Vixia hfs10 to imovie'11. The computer does not even recognize this camcorder. When I do a PC connection, iphoto comes up, but all it tells me to import are the pictures that I have taken.
    No matter what I do, I cannot find the folder for my camcorder in the device section in the finder.
    When I try to import it on imovie, I only get an option for facetime camera and not my vixia.
    Please help!

  • I'm running Lightroom 2.7 and Photoshop CS4 and can't open or import NEF files from a Nikon D600

    Need help understanding why the NEF files created by my D700 work fine in both Lightroom 2.7 and Photoshop CS4, but the same file format created by a Nikon D600 keep getting a unkown error when I try to import or open them.

    You can either upgrade Lightroom or use Adobe's Free DNG Converter to make a backwards-compatible file for LR 2.x to read. New camera support is only effected on current versions of LR and Adobe Camera Raw and your version(s) do not support the D600.

  • CANNOT import RAW files from CANON 40D to Lightroom 1.2

    My color setup in 40D is sRGB
    my system is windows XP
    but when I want to import files from my CF card
    it will show the message: some import operation were not performed.
    the files use an unsupported color mode.
    pls tell me how to solve this problem~

    Sorry for the above post. My daughter hit the keyboard. I am having the same trouble and I have tried shooting in Standard Raw and with the attached Jpg. I get a message that states it is a unsupported color format. Any ideas? It sounds like everyone else has got this to work but it simply will not work for me. I am running Vista if that makes a difference.

  • Import NEF files from Nikon D7100

    Ich habe die aktuellen PS CC, Bridge CC, ACR- und DNG Versionen installiert. Dennoch werden meine NEF-Dateien meiner Nikon D7100 nicht erkannt.

    Support for the Nikon D7100 in Lightroom first became available in version 4.4.
    Two options: Upgrade (preferably to Ligthroom 5.x) or download Adobe DNG Converter and use that to convert your images to DNG so that Lightroom 3.x can import them.
    DNG Converter can be found here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106&platform=Macintosh for OSX and here: https://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5694 for Windows.
