Using Raw in Adobe

I have one major problem. I have Adobe Photoshop 7.0 and Adobe Elements 7.0. I usually use Elements because I find it more user friendly.
I cannot open any .raw or .dng files in Photoshop for some reason.
Is there an update I need or a different program?

If you can't edit raw in Photoshop, what program is the preferred for professionals?
You can't edit raw in Photoshop 7, but Photoshop CS, CS2, CS3 and the currently shipping Photoshop CS4 can open captured raw and DNG files no problem.
It's completely unclear what it is you are doing...
In Elements 7, does Camera Raw open when you open a raw file? If so, simply open the image into Elements (past Camera Raw) and save your image as a TIFF, PSD or JPEG. If you open the image as a 16 bit/channel image you won't be able to save as a JPEG until you reduce the bit depth to 8 bits/channel.

  • Using Aperture with Adobe Bridge: Can It Work?

    I have used all the Adobe apps for ages and love them.
    Photoshop and Bridge are a mainstay of our studio operation here.
    I have been using Adobe LightRoom lately to deal with my RAW shooting.
    I take it to a certain point with LR then I use Bridge to do other things with my files. LR and Bridge can see eachother's metadata and XMP info so they can be opened back and forth between the apps as need be.
    This is critical for our work process.
    What Im wondering is can Aperture be used in a similar way?
    Can Bridge see Aperture's adjustment info and visa versa?
    Do they read eachother's Metadata and or XMP info?
    Does Aperture even use XMP data?
    Reason Im asking this is I admire Aperture's interface and functionality.
    I'd like to possibly use it in place of LightRoom for dealing with my RAW files.
    But without the compatibility with Bridge it wouldnt work for us.
    I read lots of Mac and Adobe publications and have yet to see this issue addressed in any articles.
    Surely other people are in the same boat as me on this one...
    Anyone have any knowledge to share on this matter?
    Thanks.

    Bridge and LightRoom can see each other's image adjustments because they are using almost exactly the same engine to do RAW conversions. Aperture and Bridge won't understand each other's image adjustments, in just the same way that Bridge and Nikon Capture, Canon DPP, Bibble or Capture One etc. can't.
    When it comes to metadata you won't be much better off, as any changes you made in Bridge wouldn't be seen in Aperture unless you re-imported the file and vice-versa.
    Basically, if your workflow is based around Bridge you are stuck with Adobe apps as they are the only ones designed to work with it.

  • How do i use raw files on photoshop elements 11

    i cant work out how to use raw files on pse11

    Select a raw thumbnail in Organizer and click the Editor button on the bottom toolbar or go to a folder on your hard drive and right-click on a raw file and choose open in Adobe Photoshop Elements 11.
    A raw file opens automatically in the camera raw dialog so you can use the sliders, e.g. white balance, contrast etc. Try pushing the highlights slider to the left and the shadows slider to the right to open up the tonal range of your raw image. You can also use those not available in the regular editor such as clarity and vibrance. Vibrance is a more subtle form of saturation. It’s good for boosting landscape images and pops the green and blue tones more than other colors.
    In addition to the settings under the basic tab you have a detail tab (triangle symbol) and a calibration tab (camera symbol) where you can make further tweaks. The detail tab has tools for sharpening and noise reduction. The calibration tab has drop down presets for camera styles which you can experiment with but I always leave it set to Adobe Standard. For best results the Process should be 2012. Earlier process versions will give some different sliders in the basic tab such as fill light and recovery, but they are not as effective as the latest controls.
    When you have finished your raw editing you can send the image into the regular editor. Ensure the dropdown menu for depth (at the bottom of the dialog) is set to 8 Bit/Channel as 16 bit editing in elements is very restricted. Then click the Open Image button (bottom right) and when your image opens in Expert Mode you can use the tools pallet to make any further adjustments you want. To create a jpeg use File >> Save As and choose jpeg from the file formats pull down list. There is nothing to save in a raw file. PSE remembers your slider settings next time you open the file.

  • I am using Photoshop CS5 extended and I have tried to get an update to be able to use raw with my D600 and it won't give me any options. Any recommendations othere than to go to PSCC and LRCC?

    Is there a way to update PS CS5 extended to allow me to use raw with my D600. It works with my D300 and D90 raw but not with my D600.

    CS5 Adobe Camera Raw stopped at 6.7 and the D600 support was introduced in 7.2 for CS6.
    You are eligible to upgrade to Photoshop CS6 for $200 Standard or $400 Extended if you do not want the Cloud.

    The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
    Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
    However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
    Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
    I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

    I'm an American living on a timed (though long-term) assignment in Ireland. I have both American and Irish bank accounts and addresses. I have two Qs. 1. Can I use the US Adobe site when in Ireland? Or will my physical location prevent me from doing so? 2. I am working for a not-for-profit organization. Is there a special pricing plan for non-profits, similar to the plans for students, small business, etc? Thanks for whatever help you can give me. (P.S. As a potential customer and past user of Adobe products for 15  years, I find it INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING that I cannot speak with any Adobe representative, but am continually re-routed instead to a public forum to get what I hope will be accurate information. Not good, Adobe. Your products are amazing. Your customer service leaves a lot to be desired. I don't mean that with disrespect, but as honest feedback.)

    Hi bookchic
    Thanks for your feedback.
    Non-profit pricing is available to eligible institutions via the VIP program which is sold by resellers - see Eligibility guide
    For details of resellers please check here: Adobe Platinum Partners – Value Incentive Plan
    If you wish to purchase an individual plan via Adobe.com the country of your Adobe ID will determine which site you order from.

  • Should I use the same Adobe ID for multiple apps in the same publication?

    I've been sifting through documentation on building apps for the Amazon AppStore and Google Play variants of Android for a few days and came across something I'm not too clear on.
    Here's a clip from the documentation page outlining the publishing process for Android devices:
    You cannot use the same Adobe ID to create multiple viewer apps. Create a different Adobe ID for each app. When signing in to publish folios, use the appropriate Adobe ID.
    The reason I am confused is because I thought renditions were used to send certain content to one set of devices (iPads, for example) and another set of content elsewehre.
    We currently pubish for the iPad and do so at iPad 1 resolution.  Would we add yet another Adobe ID to the mix when creating our Android apps? That sounds like a lot of logging in and out during the production and publishing process.
    Thanks for any insight,
    Steven

    Hey Steven,
    You can certainly use the same adobe Id and make renditions for two different App's ( one for android and IOS and so on )
    The point that you are referring to means that if you have two different App's in the App store with separate content than use different Id's...

  • 10g RAC - should I use RAW, OCFS and/or ASM ?

    I am about to install 10G RAC on RHAS3. Options for sharing disk partitions are raw, OCFS and ASM. The OCR and voting files must be raw or OCFS, I would tend to go for OCFS in this case. For the Oracle datafiles, again, I would tend to go for OCFS simply for ease of management since ASM seems to add another layer of complexity, and raw lacks flexibility. OCFS however is also new technology and may still have some stability issues. I'm not yet sure of our disk configuration, but there will be HBA cards in each machine with one or two SAN partitions, so I don't expect some of the ASM features such as mirroring etc. will be required as this will be done in the hardware. Does anyone have any recommendations or experiences(good or bad) in which way to go ?
    Philip

    We're using raw partitions for some years now, (since oracle 8i, then 9i and now 10g). It is quite flexible, but you shouldn't use physical partitions but LVM. It's very stable.
    Now on 10g we're using ASM on some sites where mirroring is needed. It works, but not so stable as raw. we discover some bugs as well.
    We've never used OCFS. I don't like it. To much limits. I belive that special utilities are needed for managing files. I don't like linux system software produced by oracle.

    Can multiple computers in one office use the same Adobe ExportPDF subscription?

    Hi urinutrioned,
    An ExportPDF subscription is tied to a single Adobe ID and password, so it's meant for a single user  to access.

  • Error while reading raw file created in previous task using raw file destination

    I am reading a flat file and creating an raw file using raw file destination.  path of the raw file is in a variable.  now I am reading the raw file using the rawfile source component. I am able to execute if the .raw file is available.  But
    when we deploy into the production the .raw will be created runtime, so the package is getting failed while evualting the variable which hold the path of the variable.  since the .raw is not available i am not able to proceed further. it's in ssis 2008
    r2
    Error at Load Data [Raw File Source [401]]: File "c:\test123.raw" cannot be opened for reading. Error may occur when there are no privileges or the file is not found. Exact cause is reported in previous error message.
    Error at Load Data [SSIS.Pipeline]: component "Raw File Source" (401) failed validation and returned error code 0x80004005.
    Error at Load Data [SSIS.Pipeline]: One or more component failed validation.
    Error at Load Data : There were errors during task validation.

    I am also using a raw file destination using a variable.
    I have set DelayValidation = true on both the DataFlow task and even the Sequence Container.
    I get the same error when I run the entire ssis package, however
    when I run the individual container or individual task it runs without an error.
    Also, something interesting is the error is not the same path as the variable name.
    Warning: The system cannot find the file specified.
    Error: File "C:\Users\MyName\AppData\Local\Temp\GUIDNumber\\RawFileName" cannot be opened for reading. Error may occur when there are no privileges or the file is not found. Exact cause is reported in previous error message.
    The variable is "C:\Temp\ProjectName\RawFileName"
    I have other RawFile sources in this same project, but only this one file is giving me grief.
    Any other suggestions?  Is this a bug?
    Have you set an expression for connection string property of raw file? Is it based on variable/expression or configuration? If yes, check the value of variable/ expression or configuraton item at runtime by putting a breakpoint in the pre execute event of task
    and make sure path value its getting is correct. It may be that path is getting a different value at runtime due to expression/configuration set for it.

    Install it directly from Adobe. Ensure that you use the uninstaller before installing.
