Why can't I open Camera Raw???

I have photoshop CS6 extended and Bridge CS6 that came with it. When I try to open image files from bridge to edit them in Camera Raw, I get this message: 
I tried searching for camera raw folder, no results. Apparently it's not even on my computer... Doesen't Camera Raw come with photoshop? Or am I doing something completely noobish? Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Arty.

I figured that it works in Bridge if you click on a picture and select "open" in the File menu. It also works from mini bridge in photoshop, but the right clicking method and "Launch ACR" botton on the top of Bridge's menu doesn't work.
Oh, and by the way, for anyone who would read this post trying to solve the same problem:
SSPRENGEL'S SUGGESTION ONLY WORKS FOR CS5, FOR CS6 IT DOESN'T WORKS. SO IF YOU HAVE CS5 - CS5.5, USE THIS METHOD, IF YOU HAVE CS6 DON'T BOTHER. YOU CAN LAUNCH ACR BY CLICKING ON THE IMAGE IN BRIDGE AND SELECTING "OPEN" IN THE FILE MENU. DON'T USE THE ACR ICON OR RIGHT CLICK MENU TO OPEN ACR, IT WILL NOT WORK. YOU CAN ALSO OPEN ACR FROM PHOTOSHOP, AND IT WILL WORK
Thanks for help ssprengel, my problem is solved but I still wounder why I can't open ACR using the disignated buttons...

  • Why can't Bridge open my raw files from Canon PowerShot 120-S? Using PS/5

    Why can't Bridge open my raw files from my new Canon Power Shot 120-S camera? I'm using PS-5 and had no problems with other Canon cameras. I downloaded Adobe Camera Raw 8 but this has not resolved the problem.

    1. you need cr 8.3+ for the Canon PowerShot S120
    2. ps cs5 can only update to cr 6.7
    free solution: use the dng converter: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5694
    integrated solution: upgrade to ps cc.  here are the options (but especially note the photographer plan for 9.99/mo) - http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/buying-guide.html

  • Why can't I open my RAW files in my trial version of Photoshop Lightroom 4?

    Why can't I open my RAW files in my trial version of Photoshop Lightroom 4? I use a Canon 5d mark II, which is supposed to be supported, and I checked for updates, but none were found.

    You cannot open files directly with Lr.
    You have to import them.

  • Why can't we have Camera Raw 8.5 open as an external editor in Lightroom 5 to allow using the new filter brush

    ARC 8.5 has a new filter brush for the graduated filter which will allow deleting areas from the applied area - why/how can ACR 8.5 be set as a external editor to allow access to this ability???  . Or when will Lightroom be upgraded to have this feature?
    Thanks

    ACR 8.5 is a plug-in for Photoshop not a standalone program.  I’d suggest doing an Edit In Photoshop CC/2014 and then using Filter / Camera Raw in PS to do your edits.
    I would also LR will be upgraded at some point, but maybe not until 6.0.  It’s hard to say, since the LR folks are having to deal with LR mobile things, now, too, PS is part of the cloud, and a promise of the cloud is to get new functionality sooner.

  • Why can't I open my RAW files from my Nikon D7000 ?? I can open RAW files from my old Nikon D70's but not my D7000...

    I can't open my RAW files from my Nikon D7000 on Elements 7. The files from my old Nikon D70s open but not my D7000... Any Idea why?

    Not sure what your version of PSE is but if it is PSE13 then you may need to update your product by going to
    Help >> Updates
    This ensures you get the latest updates to support all known cameras in the market.
    Old products may not have the latest updates so you need to use DNG converter for which there is a wonderful video that is self explanatory:
    Hope this helps.

  • Why can't i open my raw files in photoshop cc i use a canon 450D

    I am a photography student and this has been winding me up now for about a month. the thing is its used to open my raw files with no bother and now it won't, I've downloaded plug ins and everything and its still not letting me open my raw files. does anyone know how to fix this because I'm in the middle of my graded unit and i can't meet the deadline with my photoshop like this

  • Why can't I save camera raw defaults?

    I am currently unable to reset my camera raw defaults in CS5 (Camera raw 6.5).  When I click on "Save Camera Raw Defaults", the changes do not show up when I open up a new image using Adobe Bridge. I seem to be stuck with the changes I made some time ago. What could be happening?

    Camera Raw uses the same settings you used last time to open a file.  That's just the way it works.  The defaults you set will be used on any image you haven't opened before.
    In order to revert an image that's been opened before to the new defaults, you need to do one of the following:
    1.  Choose Camera Raw Defaults from the menu:
    2.  Depending on how you have configured Camera Raw to remember your past settings, either delete the sidecar XMP files or go into Edit - Preferences - Camera Raw... and purge your Camera Raw cache if you'd like to throw away all previous settings and have future opens use your new defaults.

  • Why can't I update Camera Raw 6.6 through Help menu?

    I have a Photoshop Element 10 Editor (the one bought from App Store), and now I try to update Camera Raw to 6.6.  After reading through Adobe's website, they suggest to update it from help menu but problem is I couldn't find the update in my help menu.  What did I do wrong?  So I then downloaded the Camera Raw 6.6 from Adobe Website trying to manually install it, and now I got a message "Update is not applicable".  What does this mean now?  Any advice please...
    Also, I contacted Adobe via Live Chat, and then I got supporter who asked me for only serial number otherwise there is no help.  I then told him, App Store did not provide one but seems he doesn't have a clue what is App Store and insisted me to contact the store directly to ask for a serial number.   ???  I tried to explain him that the App Store is the store where you downloading software online through Apple's computer, and he seems still not understand what App Store is and concluded me if I have any other question I would like to ask?  Great.. so I asked him where he is residing and he replied "India".  Well.. I don't know how the support live chat go through India, but I want a support from someone who know what "App Store" is.  His name is Vasu, seems to be a gentle man but.....

    You can't update it because you have the app store version. Apple doesn't allow apps sold via the app store to update any way except via the app store, and adobe evidently doesn't think it's worth creating a whole new version every time there's a raw update. You can do it manually, although it's quite a pain. Directions are in this thread:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4106312#4106312
    EDIT Incidentally, although I doubt it will help with tech support (they often seem to be missing all PSE pages from their script books), for the app store version your serial number is your apple ID, at least when it comes to qualifying for upgrade pricing and things like that.

  • Why can't i open my Panasonic Lumix FZ45 RAW files in CS3?

    why can't i open my RAW files?
    I have photoshop CS3 with camera raw plug-in 4.6.0.30 on MacBook Pro OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63) and a Panasonic Lumix FZ45
    I have checked the list of supported cameras and mine appears to be there.
    I have no available updates in photoshop so assume that I am up to date with those.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    thanks

    I have checked the list of supported cameras and mine appears to be there.
    Yes, the Panasonic FZ45 is listed but it was first supported by Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 6.2.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    Then go to this table to see which versions of Photoshop are compatible with ACR 6.2: CS5 and later. Not CS3.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
    So your options are to upgrade to CS6 or subscribe to CC (check out the Photoshop Photography Program: PS CC + Lightroom 5).
    Or download the free DNG converter, convert all your FZ75 Raw files to DNGs then open the DNGs in CS3

  • 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:

    Where can I find the plugin to open camera raw files for Nikon D810 for Photoshop CS5.1? I've looked around the site but cannot get this to work.. Thank you.

    See for yourself which version of ACR is needed for that camera’s RAW files
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    then check your version (Photoshop > About Plug-In > Camera Raw).
    Your version of Photoshop does not support that version of ACR.
    You could use the free DNG Converter.

    I can't seem to open Camera Raw CR2 files in Photoshop CS3, my CameraRaw plug in version says it's 4.6 - any help appreciated.

    Have you tried opening up out of Bridge? If that doesn't work you may new need to download a new driver from Canon. All my peripherals are Canon and I am always having to download new drivers everytime I update. Fortunatly they are really easy to find on Canon's site.
