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

I will download them onto bridge as i always do then i will go to open it in photoshop and it will tell me that photoshop cannot open this file.ive updated my plug in and everything and its still not working which i dot understand because it used to work with no problems at all.

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? 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 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 up xls files?

Why can't I open up xls files? I'm new with the mac so please help?

Another possibility... If you have an older version of Excel, and the file you are trying to open is a new version with an .xlsx extenstion, then you need a converter to open it. (Sorry, I don't remember where to get it, because it didn't work for the first year that I tried it before I upgraded to Office 2011 at work.) Weird, since I'm able to open them on my iPhone, but not on my iMac. I've asked friends to save as an older version; some know how to use "save as".
It can also happen cross-platform. If your file is from someone using a new version on a PC, and you don't have the equivalent version on the Mac, it might not open. On the PC, the extension doesn't show, so they may not know what version it is. But when they pen Excel, it will say as it opens.

Why Aperture doesn't send the RAW file to Photoshop

I've seen the complaint about Aperture not passing the original RAW file to Photoshop in several places in this forum. I think I have a reason for why Aperture doesn't work this way.
The reason has to do with the 1st law of digital RAW photography. "Never, ever, overwrite the original RAW data from a camera's RAW format file."
Because of the above rule, both Aperture and Photoshop do not actually work on the original RAW file. They transform the RAW image data into a usable image using user specified settings (which may be the camera's default setting for that image). The original RAW file is left untouched.
When you open a RAW file in Photoshop and try to save it, you'll be prompted for a new file name. You wouldn't want to overwrite the original RAW file by writing the edited image data back to it.
When you edit an Aperture RAW file using Photoshop as the external editor, Aperture first creates a TIFF or PSD version image file in its library and then passes that file name to Photoshop. Photoshop opens the TIFF or PSD file and directly edits it. Since this version file is already in Aperture's library, when Photoshop is finished editing it, Aperture automatically sees the edited file because its already in the library.
If Aperture were to send the RAW file name to Photoshop, Photoshop would open the RAW file and create a new PSD file. When it came time to save your edits, where would you save it. In order to get it back into Aperture's library, you would need some form of Photoshop to Aperture communication so that Photoshop would know where to save the edited file and Aperture would know to add it to the library. This would require collaboration between both Adobe and Apple and doesn't seem likely.
I have a couple of ideas someone can try. These are only ideas and completely untested. I'd do it myself but I don't own Aperture (see my computer info below for the reason).
1. Create two folders with automator actions. You export your RAW files from Aperture to a "Photoshop-IN" folder. Any new RAW image found in this folder will be automatically opened in Photoshop by the Automator action. Then you save the edited Photoshop file into a 2nd folder "Aperture-IN". Another Automator action imports this into Aperture.
2. In iPhoto, if you try to edit a RAW image with an external editor, iPhoto creates an intermediate image file (JPEG I think) which it passes to Photoshop. But, if you drag the original RAW image thumbnail from iPhotos library window to the Photoshop icon in the dock, the original RAW image file is passed to Photoshop. You only have the problem of getting the saved Photoshop file back into iPhoto's library. Maybe this same thing would work in Aperture by dragging the Master image to the Photoshop icon in the dock.
PowerMac G4 Dual 1.25GHz Mac OS X (10.4.3) FW800, 4 internal HD - 550GB

This is all well and good. I wholeheartedly agree with the idea of keeping the "master" sacrosanct. What I object to is not being able to do the conversion in Photoshop (or elsewhere)
What I want is for Aperture to send the raw over to photoshop when I select "open in external editor", and then follow the current workflow (I do my edits, hit save, and a second master is added to Aperture's db.)
It's totally possible for them to do this, and it wouldn't break anything in the system, or the philosophy. Of course it's a workaround that wouldn't be necessary if Aperture's converter were up to snuff. But it isn't, and I bet it would be easier to implement the workaround than to fix the fundamental defects in the converter itself.

How do I open my raw files in photoshop elements 12 editor-..my files convert to jpegs

How do I open my raw files in photoshop elements 12 editor. I have a MacBook. I use the iPhoto and move the files I want to work on into elements, but it converts the raw files into jpeg files.
Thanks for your help!!!

Are you opening the image directly from iPhoto? Right click & choose Edit in >> Photoshop Elements Editor
This link is old but gives information on set up. It relates to PSE11 but the principle is the same. In iPhoto prefs you navigate to the editor application in the support files folder. Start from Finder by holding down the Alt (Optn key) and choosing Library.

When I open my RAW files in Photoshop CC they are grainy and the JPEGS are not. What is going on? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with my CACHE levels either.

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...
