Raw

Your problem: You can’t open your raw files!

Here’s the scenario: You just started shooting raw files because you need exposure insurance and white balance flexibility. But you can’t get those raw files to open in Photoshop, Photoshop Elements or Lightroom! You’re ready to give up. This camera raw tutorial will help you.

Here are some solutions for you!

Please read all the way down to the bottom of this page before trying anything, or before emailing me for answers. The answers are here – really. Capturing images in RAW file format is far more flexible than capturing jpgs. However, sometimes your camera and the software on your computer don’t quite sync up. This is true if you have a brand new camera and an older version of Photoshop, or new Photoshop that hasn’t been updated. If that is the case, you may have to update your Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) plugin for Photoshop. Follow the directions in Step One below.Now, if that doesn’t work, you’ll have to download the free Adobe DNG Converter utility, which will convert files from over 200 digital camera Raw files to a more universal RAW file format, DNG (which stands for digital negative), which can then be opened in an older version of Photoshop. (Older being CS2, CS3, CS4, CS5, CS6.) Photoshop Elements can also open RAW files, and you may have to follow the same process if you have a newer camera and an older version of Elements. See Step Two and Three below.

Before you start – Check to see if your camera is supported.

Adobe’s list of supported cameras is here. If your camera is brand new on the market, it may not be supported for a couple of months after it’s release.

READ the following if you can’t open your RAW files in Photoshop

Step One: Update Adobe Camera Raw (ACR)

  • Update and install the latest version of ACR (for CS6 use v7.1 – and just note it will only work for CS6 – For earlier versions or Creative Cloud see below.)
  • Use the Adobe updater (if it’s installed on your computer). That way all the updates will be automatic and much simpler than the manual method.
  • Windows users: Download Adobe Application Manager and update from there.
  • Detailed instructions are included on the download page of the Adobe site.
  • If you are using Photoshop CS2 – the latest version of ACR is 3.7
  • If you are using Photoshop CS3 – the latest version of ACR is 4.6
  • If you are using Photoshop CS4 – the latest version of ACR is 5.7
  • If you are using Photoshop CS5 – the latest version of ACR is 6.7
  • If you are using Photoshop CS6 – the latest version of ACR is 7.1 (DNG converter goes to versions 9.2 and beyond)
  • Photoshop Creative Cloud only lists the DNG converter and no longer lists ACR
  • Once you have installed the latest version (according to your software version), try again to open your camera RAW files
  • Easiest way is to navigate to the folder where your RAW files are using Adobe Bridge
  • If this doesn’t work, go to Step Two.

Here are the direct links to the latest Adobe Camera Raw updates for Photoshop:

Step Two: Download DNG Converter

  • If Step One doesn’t work, you will need to convert your files to DNG format, and then use ACR after that to open the converted files
  • Once you get your file converted to a DNG, it will open in any recent version of Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, and other RAW image converters too.

Step Three: Convert Your Files

To use the DNG converter, follow these steps: (These are for Mac, but the PC steps are very similar)

  • Go to the appropriate link above and download the latest Adobe DNG Converter
  • Place it in your Applications folder
  • Launch the DNG Converter application
  • Select the folder where your raw files are located and click Convert
  • You can save the new files to another folder, which I suggest you do, (and perhaps delete the original raw files once you are certain the new DNG files will open)
  • You can also re-name your new DNG files, but it might be simpler to keep their original file numbering
  • The DNG files are also slightly smaller than your raw files, but don’t worry, all the quality is there

Step 4: If all else fails, try another software other than Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom.

  • I use Luminar to open raw files that Adobe products don’t open.
  • If you don’t want to pay monthly subscription fees, check out Luminar.
  • Download a trial version for free.
  • If you decide to buy, use my coupon code: ImageMaven for $10 off the price.

Suggestion

Try one small folder of images first to test

  • The DNG converter converts your raw files to the DNG format which can then be opened using ACR and Photoshop CS2, CS3, CS4, CS5, CS6 or CC
  • Very simple and fast. Converting files to DNG is actually considered very beneficial, as it is an archival format and it also uses a loss-less compression which makes the DNG files 15% smaller
  • DNG files can be opened by all RAW conversion software and in the future may become the standard file format for all digital cameras

Camera Raw for Photoshop Elements

Follow the same steps as with Photoshop above. Here are the updates to the Adobe Camera Raw plugins for Photoshop Elements MAC & Windows up to v.10. This will make it much easier to open your RAW files as you shouldn’t have to go through the DNG conversion process if you are using Version 9 or later. This is great news for Elements users.

Elements Version 11 +

For Elements v.11 and later, follow the camera raw update instructions on this page: Elements version 11 and later

Camera Raw Tutorial for Lightroom

If you are using Photoshop Lightroom for your image editing, keep your software up to date using the same method as in the Elements 11+ link above.

I have done it with Mac and Windows and I know it works. So don’t give up! Follow the directions carefully and you will succeed. Converting files to DNG format will also allow you to open your RAW files in other software such as Aperture, Lightroom, Capture One, iPhoto, GIMP and many more, especially if your software is a little older – not 5 years older or more though – just if you haven’t got the latest and greatest versions yet. There are also instructions for this procedure found on the Adobe site in the same locations as you get the ACR and DNG converter updates. And if NONE of these methods work for you after carefully following all the steps, then you can always use the software that came with your camera. If you’re lucky you will be able to convert to DNG files that way, and then open up the DNG files in your preferred raw image editing software.
