    Installing Camera Raw 7.3 update

    I need to install Adobe Camera Raw 7.3 in order to use the raw files shot with my Canon SX50 HS camera.

    I downloaded the files from the Adobe Site and then said YES I wanted to install the 7.3 upgrade and the darn thing disappeared. I cannot find it in my downloads or anywhere and it has not been installed into my PS6...

    Please don't say that I should be using Photoshop CC...

    Richard, I went to install ACR 7.3, and after instillation I discovered I had ACR 9.0.
    I wish I could help you: however I do have PS CS6, not CC
    I downloaded it from the Help tab - updates - from Adobe Bridge.

    Bruce...

    I first tried to download from the Adobe Website and I don't know what happened to the download - it is floating around somewhere in the Never-Never-Land of my compter.

    I then updated using Photoshop CS6 help > update > click on ACR 7 (which was the version I had)

    Then it was a simple but time consuming thing to download and install the update for ACR 7.3...

    At first after the download, it took a long time to open bridge but, subsequent openings seem speedier...

    Everything works just fine now...

    Richard, great to hear. Do you have ACR 7.3 or ACR 9.0?

    When I upgraded to the Mk II version of 7D the Raw files weren't recognised, although I was able to convert to DNG with the Adobe DNG converter and get around the issue that way.

    Yes, the only other option was to go to CC and have the latest Converter which wasn't available to earlier software. Eventually, after some gnashing of teeth and experimenting with other software; I had to surrender and sign up for CC.

    Try downloading again, and see which directory it would install into.

    Re: Installing Camera Raw 7.3 update

    I am now using Camera Raw 7.3 with my Photoshop CS6...

    I will continue using CS6 as long as possible because with my NIK and Perfect Photo plug-ins it does everything that I need and then some...

    Hi Geoff, you probably don't want to hear this
    I upgraded from the 7D Mk1 to the MkII. I still use CS6 and it was seamless... reading raw files from both cameras with no difficulty...
    I'm running on a 64 bit Windows 8.1Pro system .....

    I've also applied all CS6 and ACR updates up to and including ACR9..

    You probably have a later version of ACR, James. Which I was unable to download for CS5.

    Incidentally, today I tried downloading Raw files from my old 40D for the first time on CC and ACR wouldn't recognise the files! Went OK with the Canon EOS downloader though.
