Where has Adobe HIDDEN the Camera RAW 8.6 update (again!)?

Starting with the 8.5 release, my CS6 version of Camera RAW no longer updates automatically. Nor can I find it anywhere in the update download section of Adobe's website. I just happened to find an obscure link to the 8.5 update after doing a ton of searches last June.
Now, the same problem exists with Camera RAW 8.6! I can get the DNG converter but it does not include Camera RAW 8.6. If I check for updates using Bridge or Photoshop, I'm told everything is up to date.
Please give me a SPECIFIC URL where I can download Camera Raw 8.6 for the Mac OS.

1.— I mentioned in my original note that Help >> Check for Updates says everything is up to date on my system in both Bridge and Photoshop.
2.— Also, I mentioned that I grabbed the DNG update today. I know the webpage says it contains Camera Raw, but it doesn't. If I load a RAW image into CR, CR says it's at version 8.5.
3.—There were many other users who had this problem with 8.5, too. I beginning to think Adobe doesn't really care for users who haven't joined the CC bandwagon.
1.— That just means your install is messed up.  It works on any properly maintained system I've tried so far.  Is Photoshop updated to CS6 13.0.6?
2.— After downloading, did you decompress the download and mounted the .dmg file on your desktop AND ACTUALLY installed the new ACR plug-in?  It DOES NOT magically get installed, you know.
3.— You are wrong.  Adobe doesn't care much about any of their customers, whether subscribed to the Cash Cow or not.
4.— You are not addressing Adobe in these user forums, so drop that attitude.  Your troubles are caused by user error and inexperience.

  • Where can I find the Camera Raw Filter in CS6?

    I would like to know where I can find the camera raw filter in Photoshop CS6 Student Version? I used the PS CC testversion and really liked working with this filter and miss it now. Can anyone help me?

    The Camera Raw filter isn't in Photoshop CS6. That is one of the new features that has been added to Photoshop CC. Photoshop CS6 is not going to have any enhancements added to it. The development cycle is finished for CS6.

  • Camera Raw in CS4.  I have applied the Camera Raw 5.7 update to my CS4 Photoshop. It works fine in Photoshop, but only shows the NEF icon from my DS3 files in Bridge. Any ideas would be gratefully received.  Many thanks.

    I have installed Photoshop CS4 on a new PC as my other has all but died.  I applied the Camera Raw 5.7 update for CS4 to take care of the NEF files from my Nikon D3S.  This works fine when opening NEF file, but in Bridge it only shows the NEF icon.
    If anyone has any ideas, I would be most grateful.

    Purge the cache for the offending folder(s) through the Tools menu in Bridge.

  • Has anybody used the Camera RAW filter on an OpenEXR, HDR or similar floating point color image?

    I often work on floating point images rendered out of 3ds Max, specifically OpenEXRs, and I have been lately using the Camera RAW filter to do some image adjustments. There is one problem though, the float image does not load correctly into Camera RAW. It looks slightly over-exposed when loaded and it is nearly impossible to get it back to "scratch". Is Camera RAW not fully float capable? Camera RAW is a drunkard compositor's dream when doing color corrections on a floating point image, especially an image rendered out of a 3D application such as 3ds Max or Maya. Any thoughts?

    For what it's worth I have seen this going back a loooong time.  I've posted on the subject as well and have never gotten a solid answer.  It just appears as though Photoshop considers it "already open, so no need to open it twice".  I believe an uninitialized variable could be involved, since it's intermittent.
    I have found a couple of choices for workarounds or workflow changes...
    1.  You can save the first-opened document opened (e.g., as  a .PSD) somewhere.  Then reopening the raw file will always open a second document.
    2.  You could consider opening the raw file just once, duplicating it as a second layer, then use Camera Raw as a filter.  Obviously that doesn't avail Camera Raw of the raw data, but its usefulness depends on what you're trying to accomplish.

  • I downloaded the camera raw 8.7 update, but can't open app. Please help!

    I've tried this on two different Mac computers. I recently bought the Nikon d750, and am unable to open any raw files with Lightroom 4 or Photoshop CS6. The 8.7 DNG converter available to download through abode is not working. I am going through all of the steps to install, but then nothing. Can't open or find it anywhere. Can someone please help. I am on a deadline!

    As mentioned it was not in the applications folder.  HOWEVER, I did a broach search on "dng" and found the "Adobe DNG Converter.app"!!! I don't know where it was hiding but moved it my desktop.  I was able to convert a folder full of NEFs and import to lightroom.  Now everrything is looking pretty good for me hopefully my last couple of posts will help lolapea1: 
    Recap 1) be sure to load the DNG converter in addition to the camera raw converter
                2) Search all folders for Adobe DNG Converter.app and move to where you can find (ie. desktop)

  • I have Photoshop CS2 vsn 9.0 with the Camera Raw 3.7 update and the Digital Negative Converter.  I cannot open any RAW files. Does the fact that I've opened them in Lightroom 5.0 before make a difference?

    When I try to open the RAW file (CR2) from the Photoshop application or from the Bridge (even while holding down the shift key) I get a message saying it's not the right kind of file. When I try to convert using the converter, it won't recognize the files.

    Which operating system are you using?
    Which camera are the camera raw files from?
    Did you convert the files to dng using lightroom or the standalone dng converter?
    If using the standalone dng converter, which version?
    In the dng converter did you try setting the Compatibility for Camera Raw 2.4 and later
    (Preferences>Compatibility)
    You should also be able to send the files from lightroom to cs2 without converting to dng, either by using Photo>Edit In>Photoshop or setting cs2 as an external editor in the lightroom preferences

  • Where do I install the Camera Raw plug in for Mac?

    I'm not sure my question relates to Elements, but here goes:
    I recently installed CS4 for Mac and have Elements as well.  When opening Adobe Acrobat I keep getting a message from Adobe that it has an update for Camera Raw and I choose to install it.  However, I invariably get a message that Camera Raw cannot be found on my computer.  Should it have been part of the CS4 installation I made, part of Elements, and now somehow it's not there?  I have downloaded the 4.6 Camera Raw update and have the plug in on my desktop, but I'm not sure where I should install it? Whether I should or should not install it? Whether there's a Camera Raw application that missed the installation process?
    As you see, I'm pretty much in the dark as to this Camera Raw deal.  Any tips from someone out there?

    Elements can never, never update ACR automatically the way bridge and PS CS can. You need to download and install the plug-in manually and you need to be sure you have the correct version for PSE. You can find it here:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=40&platform=Macintosh
    You don't say which version of PSE you have, but most versions can use a newer plug-in than the list states ( you can use the latest version in PSE 6, for example).
    If you have PSE 6 or 8, bridge will autoupdate the plug-in if you go to Help>Updates.

  • Where do I find the Camera Raw settings file?

    I've been running Creative Suite 3 on a MacBook Pro. I just bought a Mac Pro so got my disks off the shelf to install on the new machine. That's when I found I have to deactive the programmes on the laptop in order to install them on the tower. (Which strikes me as outrageously restrictive. How many people work on a tower at home and a laptop for the road?)
    Having gone throught the deactivation/activation process, I opened Photoshop to process some NEF files, and then remembered that my Camera Raw settings were somewhere on the laptop - but where ??? I assume there must be a file somewhere, but have not so far been able to find it.
    Any ideas gratefully received.
    Thanks

    By "Camera Raw Settings file", I take it that you are looking for the develop settings for each raw file. These settings can be stored in two ways. The first and most common method is to store them as sidecar *.xmp files in the same directory as the NEFs. The other method is to store them in a centrally located Camera Raw database. One can change these methods via the Edit Preferences menu of either Photoshop or Camera Raw. Further information is here:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Photoshop/11.0/WSD94FB319-761D-4e9a-BC8D-24DF7EBC05B4.html
    The storage location for this central database as well as the storage locations for other settings are shown in this Adobe link:

    Interesting.  How much is accomplished in the 8bi file without reference to camera-specific profiles?  There are some camera profiles that appear to have been added in acr updates.  for example there is a folder <Canon EOS 70D> in <C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles\Camera> (win 7) that contains five profiles (Faithful, Landscape, Neutral, Portrait and Standard).  Would acr be able to process 70D raw image files without these profile files?

  • Camera Raw 3.7 update with Elements 4.0 ( OS is Win XP2)

    I have Elements 3.0 currently installed. My 4.0 is not an update to PE 3.0; it is the full version of PE 4.0. I believe the proper update for 4.0 is Camera Raw 3.7.
    1.)Do I install the Adobe DNG Convertor AND the Camera Raw 3.7 Update, or just the Camera Raw 3.7 Update?
    2) Should I uninstall 3.0 prior to the install of 4.0
    3.)Please help me understand the exact steps to properly install the 3.7 update: The steps given by Adobe for downloading it to PE 4.0 are:
    1. Exit Photoshop Elements.
    2. Open My Computer.
    3. Double-click Local Disk (C:).
    4. Navigate to: (Please read directory carefully)
    Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 4.0\Plug-Ins\File Formats
    5. Move the existing Camera Raw.8bi plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensure you keep this version in case you need to revert back.
    (WHAT ARE THE EXACT KEYSTROKES TO PROPERLY DO THIS STEP?)
    6. Copy the Camera Raw plug-in, Camera Raw.8bi, from the download into the same folder as in Step 4.

  • Camera RAW 5.6RC update

    Is the Camera RAW 5.6 update suitable for PSE 7.0?

    No problem. This happens all the time. First, Photoshop and Photoshop Elements get confused, and then there is Premiere, which has three main flavors: the old Premiere, Premiere Pro and Premiere Elements.
    Also, there seem to be a number of "rabbit holes" in the forum, where one seems to be in one forum, but when they post, they find that they are actually in another forum. This happens a lot in the Forum Comments forum, as it seems that many of these rabbit holes silently lead there. It's filled with posts on Acrobat, Illustrator and InDesign - each with there own set of fora.
    Good luck with the ACR update info,
