Hey,
I just got a new D90 and I am trying to open some of the NEF (RAW) files in Photoshop but they won't open. It just says "Could not complete your request because of a program error".
I'm using cs4 extended.
PS will open raw files from my D60 (even when I use the same SD card). I have tried formatting the card, no luck.
Any idea's?
Thanks!
 
Do you have the latest Adobe Camera RAW?
 
I have Lightroom, so it may be a little different for you.

If I go to Help -> About, it tells me what camera raw I have installed (which is 5.6).

Go to the support area of abode.com and see if there is a newer version than what you have installed.


There should be some kind of update check in PS too though...
 
Just got to the Adobe website and download the most up to date camera raw for the camera you are using. That will fix your issue.
 
Update your software. You may have to manually add the D90.

Try a trial of Capture NX2. You can export as a TIFF and go around the whole problem.

Try the NX2 anyway, the lens distortion correction is really nice and a lot of the other corrections are easier and in some ways even better than CS4.

And the color is accurate in NX2.
 
I had version 5.0.0.178
I updated to 5.6... and it's all good.
thanks!
 
Covert your files to DNGs first. As you probably know it is Adobe's raw file format. I like them because they don't use sidecar files. You can download the converter for free from adobe Adobe - Digital Negative (DNG) The download link is in the upper right hand corner of the page.

edit: oh, you solved it, never mind. @_@
 
I have a legally purchased CS4 extended and I have downloaded camera raw update but get "file access denied" when I try to unzip the file. I am really frustrated that I cannot open my raw files! ANY help is greatly appreciated!!
 
Follow the instructions on the Adobe site for installing the plugin, or as mentioned, use the free DNG converter for your raw files. H
