Why does elements 11 not recognize nikon nef files

I have been using Elements 11 for quite a while for Canon Raw files with great success. It really works fine for me.
I recently bought a Nikon D300. For some reason Elements 11 will not recognize the Nikon NEF raw files.
W H Y ? ? ?

Thank you for your reply.
Answers to your questions:
I am using Win7 64 bit. Elements 11 has worked just fine until I attempted to process NEF files.
I always copy files to my HD before trying to process any.
How do I check to see if my Camera Raw module is current? EVERY time, regardless of day of the week or time of day, when do the Help/Update thing I ALWAYS  get that message block about website is busy, try again. I'll bet I've tried it over a hundred times over the past two weeks or so. I have a feeling that it can't be that busy for that long. Or, maybe I'm just unlucky, or maybe your server is too small to handle the load.
Needless to say, I am really frustrated with Adobe.
Again, thank you for your reply, and hopefully my answers will provide a solution.
Regards,
ChuckWagner

  • HT201070 Why does this update corrupt Nikon NEF files?

    Per earlier discussions, I reinstalled 4.07 and rebuilt everything.  It appears that both Nikon D90 and D7000 Nef's are affected yielding a magenta screen when the thumbnail is clicked and opens in any window.
    Will the next RAW update remedy this problem?
    I am using a new iMac and it came with Mountain Lion and all updates have always been installed.
    Please advise.

    What for Apple to issue a fix for this. Until then keep using Raw Camera bundle 4.07

  • 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.

  • Why does iPhoto not recognize the .jpg pics from a Kodak C875 now? I can stick my memory card in the iMac and import them that way, but iPhoto will not import the pics from the camera.

    Why does iPhoto not recognize the .jpg pics from a Kodak C875 now? I can stick my memory card in the iMac and import them that way, but iPhoto will not import the pics from the camera.

    There have been many issues reported with Kodak cameras - serach the forums for them
    Actually the best practise is to use a card reader to import your photos, verify that they are imported ocrrectly and wait at least one backup cycle and then use the camera's format command to reformat the card and erase it - this assures no lost photos and always having the card properly formatted

  • Does PS support RAW Nikon .NEF files

    Can RAW (Nikon .NEF) files be imported into PS Elements 11

    Hi there
    Yes, PS Elements 11 supports RAW files with the Camera Raw plugin. Just make sure you have the latest version of RAW installed and that you are using a compatible camera.
    Here are some additional links, as well as a list of supported Nikon cameras:

  • HELP FAST! Need to go to my wedding-Lightroom 4 does not recognize Nikon D800 files

    I try to import my d800 nef files and Lightroom does not recognize them and will not import.  I looked on the site and it SAYS it supports them but nothing. I looked for a raw plugin but when I clicked the link it would not go anywhere.  HELP! I don't want to shoot my wedding with this camera if LR can't support it and I have to return it to the camera store FAST if not.

    Nikon D 800 is supported in the latest realease of camera raw. Make sure that you update the software to the latest version or download and install the latest version of Camera Raw 6.7 from the Adobe website.
    But the question is about Lightroom. And Lightroom doesn't use any version of ACR. Lightroom 4 is somewhat compatible with ACR 6.7, and fully compatible with ACR 7.x. ACR 6.7 will read Lightroom 4 adjustments when an image is transferred to Photoshop, but it will not provide access to process 2012 sliders in ACR.

  • Why does Itunes not recognize my iphone 3GS on any windows computer?

    I have had my Iphone for a little while now and itunes on my computer was working and the phone was doing fine except that the usb wall charger would not charge my phone in less i plugged the phone in first, turned it off, then turned it back on and then the wall charger would work correctly. This was more irritating then anything and I had read on the internet that updateing to 4.3.1 would fix the issue. So I was using iOS 4.2.1 on my iphone 3GS and decided to go ahead and update to 4.3.1, after doing so itunes (newest version) will not recognize my Iphone no matter which computer I plug it into (I have tried 3 other computers, 2 of which run Windows 7 64 bit and the other running Windows XP 32 bit). I have tried reinstalling the newest version of itunes on 2 different computers which included deleteing ALL folders and/or files related to apple, itunes, quicktime, or any other program that i may of had on that computer. I also uinstalled the apple mobile device driver in Device Manager to try to see if that would fix the issue at the same time. None of that worked on either PC. I then tried connecting my Iphone to a computer I had never had it on period. This computer also never had itunes or quicktime on it so i figured this would be a fresh start. I again installed the newest version of itunes and then connected my Iphone to that computer for the first time, which again resulted in not working. My last try was connecting my Iphone into my brothers computer that already had itunes on it, and he has a ipod in which he has used on that computer many times, his ipod still connects and itunes recognize's it just fine, however again itunes would not recognize my iphone. Next I thought maybe if I put my iphone into recovery mode and then connect it to my computer itunes would find it, which would correct the problem after I exited recovery mode. Yet again to no avail, and i tried this on all 4 computers as well... Lastly I tried to just reset my iphone and let it come up while connected to the computer, but sadly, to no avail.
    So obviously my conclusion is what ever is causing this problem is most likely located directly on the iphone itself, seeing as I have tried it on multiple computers one of which itunes and the phone had never been on, 2 of which I have previously used for my iphone on iOS 4.2.1 and another of which was my brothers which he had used for his ipod. However I do not know how to fix (if I even can) this issue so that I can once again use itunes with my iphone.
    Oh, and lastly... updateing from 4.2.1 to 4.3.1 did not fix the usb wall charger issue... After all of the above all I achieved was to add another problem to the table of which previously consisted of a problem that was simply irritating and annoying.
    Thanks in advance for any advice and/or solutions that may lead me to resolving this issue.

  • Why does Encore not recognize my DVD burner?

    I recently purchased Encore to complete a video editing project I've been working on, and for some reason the software will not recognize the external DVD burner I have connected to my computer. The burner is not that old, so I don't see why Encore would show that no device was attached, especially when the computer itself recognizes the external drive. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone have any solutions? Few things are as frustrating as having software/hardware issues for no apparent reason. Thanks!

  • Why does Find not see a visible file at Volume level?

    I recently searched (Find) my iMac's internal hard drive for a file that I knew I had created ("MAC addresses.doc"), but it found no such file, either by File Name or Contents. I had to try to remember where I filed it, and then I found it in [Macintosh HD] > Library > Documentation > User Guides and Information. Searching (Find) again at the level of any folder within the volume, even Library, finds the file immediately, both by File Name and Content. The file has no unusual properties, and its Permissions allow everyone to at least Read it. This occurs even after repairing permissions of the volume. Why should the OS be unable to Find this file for me when searched on the volume name? Should I change some setting/preference in order to allow that (all files to be found at Volume level)?

    Thanks Frank,
    SYSTEM_PARAMETER is a table owned by X.  If I qualify the select statement by adding the owner it works, but of course I do not want to do that.  Here is the DDL for creating SYSTEM_PARAMETER:
    create table SYSTEM_PARAMETER
      name         VARCHAR2(256) not null,
      date_value   DATE,
      number_value NUMBER,
      string_value VARCHAR2(512),
      comments     VARCHAR2(512)
    alter table SYSTEM_PARAMETER add constraint PK_SYSTEM_PARAMETER primary key (NAME);
    Again, if I rewrite the procedure to the following (only difference is the red X.), it works:
    create or replace  procedure ztm_get_debug_level is
      vc_pkg_name  system_parameter.name%TYPE := 'DEBUG_LEVEL_PKG_BASE_KEYS';
      vn_error     services.debug_log_level.debug_level_id%TYPE := 30;
      v_debugLevel   system_parameter.number_value%TYPE;
      function get_owner return varchar2 is
        cursor c1 is
        select owner from all_tables where table_name = 'SYSTEM_PARAMETER';
        v_Ret_Val VARCHAR2(30);
      BEGIN
        OPEN C1;
        FETCH C1 INTO v_Ret_Val;
        CLOSE C1;
        RETURN v_Ret_Val;
      END;
    begin
      DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('AAAA - ' || get_owner);
      select s.number_value
      into   v_debugLevel
      from   X.system_parameter  s
      where  s.name = vc_pkg_name;
      DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('BBBB');
    exception
      when no_data_found then
        NULL;
      when others then
       DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('p_get_debug_level.WHEN OTHERS');
       raise;
    end;
    This procedure exists in 4 other environments where there are no issues.  It can't be a privileges issue as the table is owned by user X and as you can see by the lookup (which was added for debug) against ALL_TABLES the owner is clearly X.  So, why can X not select from it's own table unless we include the owner?
    Thanks,

  • Bridge CC does not have Nikon .NEF file association to set

    When I open preferences and go to File Association settings, the extention for Nikon Raw .NEF is not there. It's a pain having to right click the thumbnail everytime I want to open it Photoshop CC.  I do have Photoshop CS6 and it defaults to that in the context menu when I right click.  How do I change that. I am on a MAC using OS X  Mavericks.

    JPGs use lossy compression so some pixels aren’t exactly the same anymore; however, if you use the highest or close to highest quality setting in LR during Export it will be hard to tell any difference.  
    JPGs are compressed by contain 3 colors per pixel whereas raw files (NEFs in your case) usually contain only one bit per pixel and are compressed in a way that makes them smaller but doesn’t lose any image data.
    TIFs if not compressed are the width x height x 1 or 2 bytes per pixel x 3 colors-per-pixel so can be huge as you have seen.
    If you shoot JPG and edit those in LR you still cannot see the LR edits in those original JPGs, only the camera rendering.

  • Why does Aperture not support all DNG files?

    I have a Leica D-LUX 2 and an Epson RD-1. Both of these cameras create RAW files which are not supported by Apple. Why should the files, when converted to DNG, still require RAW support to be utilized. I understand the wrapper concept, but is this not the idea of DNG. What about cameras that create a DNG file, rather than RAW (i.e. the new Leica M8).
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Hi Kenneth,
    You're missing the point Karl is making. RAW data is (in essence) proprietary to the camera. All DNG does is essentially encapsulate that proprietary data in a standard format. The data is still proprietary whether DNG or RAW.
    By proprietary I mean that the sensor array and sensitivity to light, tonal correction across the gamut all are understood by the camera manufacturer and held as parameters (data) in the RAW or DNG file. It requires specific knowledge to interpret this data into a renderable image. Until such time as camera manufacturers agree that 1 = 1 and 2 = 2, we are stuck with this issue (and ALL our concern of x years from now when nobody supports what is our latest and greatest camera). An API included in Aperture (actually OS X) would at least allow camera manufacturers to write their RAW conversion algorithms and take Apple out of the loop.... as well as take dependence on OS X releases out of the loop too!
    Hope this clarifies.

  • Why does Encore not recognize jpegs made in Photoshop?

    I use CS5 Master Suite on a Mac running the latest version of Snow Leopard.
    I am trying to make a DVD slideshow. I made a bunch of jpegs of a recent holiday trip using Photoshop CS5. However, when I try to import the jpegs, I get this strange dialog error message "The software available to decode the menus is not available on this system." Encore then nearly crashes as I try to get rid of the error dialog.
    This is strange given that I used Photoshop CS5 to make the jpegs, Encore and Photoshop are both creations of Adobe, the version of PS I am using is on my system -- the same system that Encore is on -- so any codecs needed ought to be here.
    This also occurs with psd files as well.
    With those same jpegs, I was able to make a rather lame slideshow DVD using iDVD, but I'd rather have more creative control.
    What is going on? Any suggestions? I've downloaded all the latest and greatest updates for all Creative Suite apps.

    You can't import still images with frame sizes more than 4096x4096 pixels.
    You should not ever use anything that is not already at the correct resolution for DVD-Video.
    That means 720x480 NTSC and 720x576 PAL. @ 72 DPI (some say 96 DPI).
    Make sure your aspect ratio is correct, so to do that you either use the Photoshop template, or else design in square pixels & resize.
    For 16:9, that is 860x480 NTSC and 1024x576 PAL
    (960x540 also works, but you will see vertical reduction as well as horizontal reduction there which can - and does - play havoc with text).
    For 4:3 that is 640x480 NTSC and 768x576 for PAL.
    Resize accordingly afterwards for anamorphic squeezing to get the correct PAR.
    Why would you want to even try using anything else at higher resolutions for DVD???
    Makes no sense, as what you input will not look like what comes out of the other end.

  • When browsing for photos, why does it not recognize the most recent iPhoto photos?

    Whether I'm browsing for a photo to upload to a website, or to put into a word document and use the "Photo" directory which looks at my iPhoto photos it doesn't seem to register photos that I've put into iPhoto recently. I'm not sure if there's a way to "refresh" this directory or not, and there's no exact time that I've been able to recognize where the photos are available through this browser. It's kind of annoying, as I'm using iPhoto to manage all my photos.
    Anyone run in to this?

    You can't and shouldn't access image files inside the library via the Finder.  The following is from a post by Terence Devlin on accessing photos for use outside of iPhoto.  It's the definitive treatise on the subject.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
         (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
         You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
         There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
         If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
                   If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
         For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from
                                                      MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
         Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
         For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility
                                                      Karelia iMedia Browser
         Other options include:
                   Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
                   File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
                   Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
         b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
