When you drag and drop from iPhoto, you are not using the export panel. "Drag and drop" will simply use the lower quality jpeg previews.
To send your raw images to your external editor, you need to set up your Canon editor as External Editor in iPhoto.
In the "iPhoto Preferences > Advance" set "Edit Photos in" to your Canon ..., in addition to "Use Raw photos...."
Then, when you double click a photo to edit, it will open directly in your Canon editor.

  • When I move a RAW file from IPhoto to my desktop or Photoshop it changes to a jpeg and reduces in size. How can I get the Raw file across?

    When I move a RAW file from IPhoto on my macbook pro to desktop or Photoshop it changes to a jpeg and reduces in size. How can I get the Raw file to move across?

    I create separate folders based on the year and then the actual date of when I take images. You can make those folders anywhere on any hard drive that is connected to your Mac whether internal or external. I also use the Photoshop Photo Downloader that is included with Photoshop/Bridge and it will create the date folder so all I do is create a Year folder.
    Open Bridge or click on the Bridge icon in PS and in the File menu item in Bridge select "Get photos from Camera". It can be a camera connected to your Mac or a memory card from a camera. A window will open and you then select the camera or memory card. Set the location they will be downloaded to, just the folder and you can Browse to a folder that you created, then in the "Create  Subfolders drop down select what date stamp you want to use or or custom name or not to create subfolders at all.
    I've never cared for iPhoto one bit. I tried it but found it way to restrictive. It likes to have full control over how you interact with your images.

  • How to transfer RAW files from iPhoto to lightroom without converting them to jpeg

    When I transfer RAW image file from iPhoto to my lightroom library they appear as jpeg files, how do I transfer them as RAW?

    Are you having a problem? What have you tried? Do you have Apple's camera connection kit?
    With the CCK, you can connect the camera or the camera's SD card.

    Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen!
    My question concerns the impossibility to open RAW-files directly from the program Adobe Bridge. At the moment when you open a RAW-file from Adobe Bridge by double-clicking, RAW-file is opened only in Photoshop. In the settings Adobe Bridge - in "open RAW-files by double-clicking in Adobe Camera Raw» box is checked. When you try any changes in the settings Adobe Bridge system displays a message:
    Bridge's parent application is not active. Bridge requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature.
    The entire line of Adobe products on my computer updated to the latest updates. Previously, a family of products Adobe Photoshop on your computer is not set. Computer - PC, Windows 7 Enterprises.

  • When I open a RAW file from my new Sony camera, how can I get it to open in Photoshop instead of Perfect Effects 8?

    When I open a RAW file from my Nikon's SD card it automatically goes to PS. I have a new Sony camera; when I open RAW photos from it, it goes to Perfect Effects 8. How can I change it so it goes to Photoshop instead of Perfect Effects 8?

    When I have an NEF file on my desktop and click on OPEN WITH, it shows the programs, including Photoshop, that will open it. But, when I click on OPEN WITH for an ARW image, it doesn't show Photoshop. However, your suggestion about dragging the images from the SD card on the desktop into the Photoshop icon provides me with a solution. This is much easier and quicker than the way I was doing it. Thank you very much for your help!!!

  • Removing RAW files from iPhoto 11?

    Hi everyone,
    I recently upgraded to Lion and iPhoto 11. I shoot my photos simultaneously in both RAW and JPEG. My version of iPhoto, before switching to iPhoto 11, did not recognize RAW, which was fine because I could directly import the JPEG version on my laptop and then archive the RAW to an external hard drive.
    But now that iPhoto 11 does recognize RAW it imported both pictures from my last shooting in its database...
    How can I safely move those RAW files to my external disc while at the same time leaving the JPEG version in iPhoto?
    Thanks for your help.

    Export them from iPhoto (File -> Export Kind -> Original) and then delete them from iPhoto.
    When you import a Raw to iPhoto it automatically creates a Jpeg preview of the Raw, so the value of shooting both is debatable.
    Regards

  • Why can't I send older RAW files from iPhoto to Adobe Camera RAW?

    I have a 20" Intel iMac (OS  X 10.5.8) and use iPhoto '09 (Version 8.1.2) for storing and organizing the digital images produced by my Nikon D200 and D700 cameras. When I wish to edit a photo I right click on the image and select Edit in External Editor. The external editor is Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac.
    In iPhoto/Preferences/Advanced for RAW Photos I have checked "Use RAW when using external editor." Recently I successfully sent new D200 and D700 RAW images from iPhoto to PSE 6 for conversion by Adobe Camera RAW (Version 5.4.0.57). However, I was not successful in attempting to do the same thing with older D200 RAW images taken more than three years ago. In all cases what showed up in ACR were JPEGs rather than the RAW images. I don't understand why this is happening. What is needed to resolve this issue? Any remedial information will be appreciated.

    Well all of that tells us that the Library is sound and not corrupt - which is good news.
    Now the question would seem to be 'Why isn't iPhoto respecting the settings you've chosen in the Preferences?"
    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • No RAW files from iPhoto 9

    I have a Canon 5D Mark ll and iLife 09.. At first iPhoto would not accept RAW files; then a friend fixed the situation and it did. Now, once again, iPhoto says the RAW files are unrecognized in that format. The JPEGS download just fine. Any insight anyone?

    Thanks, everyone, for your responses.
    After an hour at the Apple Store Genius Bar and the thoughts of three different Geniuses, my problem was solved. I had changed from shooting the largest RAW files to smaller RAW files; apparently, iPhoto only accepts the largest RAW files. Too, there's a firmware update, hjell, that you might want to check out. You have to go on the Canon website to get it. This firmware is very recent, I think: 1.0.7; if you have anything less that might be your problem. Good luck!

  • Lightroom hangs when attempting to import RAW files from D750

    Hi guys,
    I purchased lightroom 5 sometime back to install on multiple platforms. Recently did an update on my macbook and it was able to read the NEF files from D750.
    However when I installed lightroom 5 on my iMac, the prog keeps hanging when I attempt to import files from the D750. Other NEF files from my D700 were ok.
    Anyone knows why?

    Could be a hardware issue
    Make sure the cable connection to the D750 is properly connected. Also, if possible try using a card reader. Or vice versa.

  • When I open CR2 RAW files from Powershot G10 they are in black and white. How do I get colour

    I'm using Elements 13 on a PC running Windows 8.1. Each time I open a CR2 RAW file from a Canon Powershot G10 it displays in black and white. The image transferred to Elements is still in black and white. Why can I not see the image in colour?

    Try holding down your Alt or Option key. The Cancel button in the Raw dialog will change to Reset.
    Click on that Reset, and hopefully it goes back to defaults.

  • I can open RAW files from my camera in photoshop cs5, but they dont save properly after editing

    I can open RAW files from my camera in photoshop, but then after I have edited, i save as .raw, and open up the newly saved file and it just comes up as a grey messed up picture.  What am I doing wrong?

    I thought that it was preferrable to do editing on RAW files rather than TIFF for highest image quality.
    Yes, it is preferable to do as much editing on the raw files as you can including global and local tone & color correction in Camera Raw...but there is a limit to the work you can do and sometimes you must go ahead and render the raw file into Photoshop for additional work. Then you'll be needing layers and other functionality that can't be done on a raw file. At that point you'll need to save as a TIFF or PSD. If you work in 16 bit and a large enough color space, the TIFF or PSDs will still be capable of the highest quality...as others have indicated, the Photoshop .raw file format ain't for photography per se.

  • Exporting Raw files from iPhoto to a thumb drive

    I shot some photos in camera Raw with my Canon 40D and uploaded them to iPhoto. When I dragged copies of the Raw image file to the desktop they were converted to Jpeg. When I tried dragging them directly from iPhoto to a thumb drive, the same thing happened -- they got automatically converted from Raw to Jpeg.
    How can I move Raw files to the desktop or a thumb drive and keep them Raw?
    Thanks
    Greg

    Yes, iPhoto has a RAW converter, it's the same one Aperture uses but with less options. The options are available under the Adjust button in Editing Mode
    2. If I shoot in Raw and import into iPhoto then convert to, say, TIFF, does iPhoto have two image files, one RAW, one TIFF?
    Yes because iPhoto always preserves your Original file, no matter what. So, if you save it as a jpeg you also have two image files...
