when I try to open the file it (meaning photoshop) says "could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document"
WHAT???!! I shoot nikon (dont say that why) I have a PC (again, not why) and I have no reason why it wouldnt work. My assistant can open them fine in her photoshop!! ggrrr...
Thanks for the help! =) Melissa
Full Version: come on...you've got to be kidding me!!
You probably need the latest camera raw settings for photoshop, go to their website, download & install them, and you should be good to go

oh oh oh i just had this problem. my normal camera is a 10d. i shoot raw all the time which is crw, when i borrowed my friends 30d, cs2 did the same thing. these raw files were cr2 which is from the 30d. my computer guy did the updates and i am up and running.

I have a D2X...that doesnt seem new enough to not be supported, dont you think?
Here you go, follow the instuctions to the letter and you will be able to open your RAW's:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=2936
I had to update mine a few times as well. Make sure that you put the update into the shared folder:
# Exit Photoshop CS2.
# Open My Computer.
# Double-click Local Disk (C:).
# Navigate to Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS2\File Formats.
# Move the existing Camera Raw.8bi plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensure that you keep this version in case you need to revert.
# Copy the new Camera Raw plug-in, Camera Raw.8bi, from the download into the same folder as Step 4.
# Launch Photoshop CS2 or Adobe Bridge.
Hope it works for you now

Thank you so much! My only question is you told me to copy the plug into the same folder ast step 4...but there are several folders listed. Which one? Thanks!!
I've PM'd you this but I'll put it here as well.
To be honest, I'm not sure which file to put this in, I'm running CS3 at the moment, but If I remember correctly: Navigate to Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\CS2\Plug-Ins\File Formats.
If it's still not working then I'm lost, sorry... Although you could try upgrading it again to the newest version: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3588
When I updated it worked first time. perhaps you may need to reinstall CS2 and then reinstall the plugins.
