Why can't i import raw photos from canon powershoot G2?

i have a powerbook with 1.25 G4 processor and am using iphoto 6.0.5. i also just installed the raw support update. i tried to import the photos again and no luck. i get this error message
"the following files could not be imported (they may be unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data)"
/private/var/tmp/folders.501/TemporaryItems/iPhoto/CRW_4307.CRW
/private/var/tmp/folders.501/TemporaryItems/iPhoto/CRW_4308.CRW
/private/var/tmp/folders.501/TemporaryItems/iPhoto/CRW_4309.CRW
/private/var/tmp/folders.501/TemporaryItems/iPhoto/CRW_4310.CRW
any help would be great

Thanks for your reply my ginger,
I have looked at changing settings but until I can actually import the pics into iPhoto, I am reluctant to change anything. Reading the link you mention, it would appear that the pics should be imported into iPhoto 11 albeit in j-peg format so they can then be processed using the Raw converter. Think I will have to spend some time when I am not so busy looking into all the options, thought this was going to be a simple thing to put right.
Thanks again ,
Dave.

  • Elements 11 - why does it not recognize RAW photos from Canon 70D?

    Elements 11 - why does it not recognize RAW photos from Canon 70D?

    Hi,
    The 70D requires Camera Raw 8.2 which is not compatible with Photoshop Elements 11.
    Your choices are
    1) Upgrade to Photoshop Elements 12
    2) Use the Canon DPP application to convert the CR2 files to TIF files and then import the TIF files into the organizer
    3) Use the free download of the Adobe DNG converter to convert the CR2 file to DNG files and then import the DNG files to the organizer.
    Note: if you are running on XP or Vista, you need version 8.3 of the converter - the latest (8.4) will not work.

    Use the Apple Camera connection Kit and connect your camera directly to the iPad. Turn on the camera and you'll get an option to import.

  • Why can't I import CR2 photos from a folder in my Mac into iPhoto 8.1.2?

    My wife and I have separate iPhoto databases but to make our lives easier, I want to point my iPhoto to her database.  Before I do that, I need to export a bunch of photos from my database and import them into her library.  However, these photos are the RAW CR2 format and her iPhoto says it doesn't recognize the file format even though her library has hundreds of CR2 photos in it.  When I try to go the other way and import a CR2 photo into my database, it works fine.  Anybody have a clue as to the problem?

    One possibility with music is that it is from a share source and identified as not paid for, I do not know the terminology, but i had to buy a song once to make it available in imovie, my original copy (no idea where i got it) would not show up. but this does not explain the photos not showing up.

  • When importing raw photos from Nikon D90 aperture seems to automatically adjust exposure darker. why? How can I stop this?

    When importing raw photos from Nikon D90 aperture seems to automatically adjust exposure darker. why? How can I stop this?

    This is typical of the default NEF RAW conversion of Aperture and the best thing you can do is set up a few presets to apply to all of your RAW images to get a tone curve and colors that is pleasing to you as a default. The in camera JPEGs / embedded JPEGs (that you first see during import) are treated to the Nikon "Picture Control" settings that are set on the camera - the RAW's as interpreted by Aperture are not.
    I have written extensively and even have a few downloadable presets on my site - look for NEF...

  • How can I export a RAW photo from iphoto to anywhere without it changing into a jpg?

    How can I export a RAW photo from iphoto to anywhere (PSE, or desktop) without it changing into a jpg???

    See if any of this info will help:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    Click to view full size
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.  3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    Click to view full size
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    Click to view full size
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Click to view full size
    NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window".  That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu).  This way you get the best of both worlds.

  • How could I Import RAW  photos from sony A300 into Lightroom 1.4.1?

    How could I Import RAW photos from sony A300 into Lightroom 1.4.1?
    RAW photos files in sony A300 are saved as "*.arw".
    any one can help?

    This is well known bug. One day Adobe will recognise that with the best live view system (A350/300) and best usability (A700) they need to take the Sony DSLR's seriously.
    Use the Import function, but use "choose files". Your CF card (in Camera or reader) will just be another drive. Navigate down to the folder with the pictures - control+A, choose selected. Then choose copy to new location and import (safer than using move).
    Don't forget to tick the backup box.
    Hope this helps. Peter

  • Hi cannot import RAW photos from my canon eos 5d mark 3 to iphoto 9.6 with iOS  X Yosemite. Fotos are black. Did you have a solution for that?

    hi cannot import RAW photos from my canon eos 5d mark 3 to iphoto 9.6 with iOS  X Yosemite. Fotos are black. Did you have a solution for that?

    Thanks. Once ImageCapture had accessed the photos, THEN iPhoto began to pick up the data, so I was ultimately able to do both. It only worked with the cable, though, not the card readers. Weird.
    And I really appreciate the ImageCapture tip. Any idea why it worked?

  • How do I import RAW photos into iPhoto?  I cannot import RAW photos from my Olympus EPL-2 camera.  I am using iPhoto 7.1.5.

    I cannot import RAW photos from my Olympus EPL-2 camera.  I am using iPhoto 7.1.5.  I read that iPhoto has to update their system and add each camera to be able to import RAW photos from it.  If this is true, how can I let Apple know to add my camera.  Thanks in advance.

    The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.
    Therefore the Raw for every camera model needs to be added individually. If yours is not supported then let them know you want it:
    iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback
    When support is added I also expect that you'll need iPhoto 09 or 11.

    The guides all say when using the iCloud photos are shared across all devices. Why can't I see my photos from my iPhone on my iPad when it settings on both devices the iCloud for photos is on?

    When you enable Photo Stream on your devices, only new photos you take or import to those devices will be automatically added to your Photo Stream. Existing photos won't.

  • I can no longer import raw files from my Panasonic Lumix LX5 into Aperture 3.3.2 - raw files from my other Canon cameras are fine. Am still running Lion - NOT Mountain Lion. Tried all available software updates - no joy. Any ideas please?

    I can no longer import raw files from my Panasonic Lumix LX5 into Aperture 3.3.2 - raw files from my other Canon cameras are fine. Am still running Lion (10.7.4) - NOT Mountain Lion. Tried all available software updates - all up to date apparently but still no joy. OS X Lion shows the LX5 as a supported file format. I dont want to have to upgrade to Mountain Lion just to see if this solves the problem. Any ideas please.

    Since when did this happen? Directly after you upgraded to Aperture 3.3.2?
    If it happened directly after the upgrade the problem may be, that the raw support for your camera got lost. For some posters it helped to register the raw support again, see this post by Alan Roseman:
    Aperture 3 preview of raw file greenish
    If this does not help, you may need to reinstall Lion to bring back the raw support.
    But if the problem occured independent of a new installation, ypu may have a problem with your camera or the card you are using. Have you tried to use a different card or to reformat the card in the camera?

  • Why can't i open raw files from my eos canon 7dii on PS elements 12

    Why can't i open raw files from me eos canon 7dii on PS elements 12

    Because your camera is newer than your software.
    You need ACR 8.7 which was released this week, to open CR2 files from the 7D.2.  Only current Adobe products can use this version, which would be PSE13 and the Photoshop versions CS6, CC & 2014 and some Adobe video products.
    You can also use the free DNG Converter 8.7 to create DNGs of a folder of images at a time, and then open those DNGs in an older PSE version, but you’ll never be able to open the native CR2 files unless you update the host software to the current versions.
    The DNG Converter 8.7 is available from the Adobe Updates page:
