CS3 and Canon D40 CR2 files

dawngreensides

Hi, I just got my new Canon 40D and I can't seem to get my CS3 to recognize the .CR2 files. I updated CS3 with the new ACR 4.2, but CS3 still says it can't recognize the type of file when I try to open the raw files.

Help! :dunno

Thanks much!

Just get an update for ACR 4.x (PS CS3) from Adobe, it's free:-)

Quoting Nikolai in here

thanks, I installed ACR 4.2 and it still won't work to open my raw files. CS3 says "Could not complete your request because photoshop can't recognize this type of file".

what am I doing wrong?

thanks!

1. You wait untill someone gives you an answer here or

2. Ask Nikolai in the linked I gave you, or

3. Another idea: Have you installed the CD which comes with the camera ?

Oh boy I am in that kind of trouble myself sometimes ... It's a bore !

Sorry.
