Photoshop Camera Raw

Can some one help me that knows about RAW. When I am trying to process a group of HDR images (7) in Raw and I merge them in Raw and then try to open them back into Raw this shows up.
CAMERA RAW EDITING NOT ENABLED
Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature.
I have been working in raw so this does not make sense to me. Any thoughts?

What carrier are you using for Camera Raw? (Lightroom, PSCC, PSCC 2014, PS elements, CS*)

Sorry, Photoshop CS 6 and I have a MAC
I should have guessed it is a Mac, someone else had this message and he never reported back the solution.
1___When the files have undergone the HDR process, which I presume you do in CS6, you end up with 8 files, the 7 originals (CR2 or Nef etc.) and the hew tone mapped hdr image?
2___The new image suffix, is it psd or tiff or jpg?
Is this the scenario or have I misunderstood?

In my version of Photoshop I can load that image into Camera raw by Filter > Camera Raw Filter - I have Photoshop CC.
If the filter is not available in CS6, save the tiff on disc, then File > Open As > Camera Raw, choose the tiff file and it ought to open.
Unfortunately I do not have CS6 but all the PS's I have had, all have the Open as dialogue.

Only CC has the Camera Raw Filter. Otherwise it has to be opened from Bridge.
You should pose this question on the Adobe forums. This has nothing to do with the format, but instead for some reason CS 6 is not being recognized by ACR, which I presume you are launching from Bridge?

The ability to return from PS to ACR was a "new feature" beginning with CC. I never understood why you would want to do that if you start in ACR, but Adobe calls it a "feature" in CC.

As far as I'm concerned, it is the GREATEST filter available in Photoshop CC..You can go back to you image anytime and apply a "tweak" on the image, without starting the the whole process over again..You have the ability to go back to this feature as a "filter" prior to printing or whatever..You are not bringing it back intp Photoshop as a "RAW" image, but one that has had some "first-pass" editing done to the "Original" raw file (and now may be a TIF or a JPG..In my case), I'm usually entering my image as a TIF file when using it as a filter..None of this affects your "ORIGINAL" Camera Raw file which always remains intact to serve a negative of sorts.
Just my 2 cents($10 with inflation!)!

still not getting this to open 'RAW
One more idea, in CS5 Edit > Preferences > File Handling
Look for the Tiff handling - the preference should read "Automatically open TIFFS with settings"

I do very little in ACR that I would ever want to return to "re-do." I have a better sharpening routine that I use exclusively in CS6, I have the lens correction filters in CS6, I have all the simple sliders available in CS6, but I seldom use them because I use curves in CS6 and Curvemeister. If I had to return to ACR, it would be because I didn't do something right, not because I had better or different controls. If you perform your crude edits correctly in ACR before going to PS, there is no reason to return - unless you skip ACR to begin with and then have to return for some fundamental corrections.

There are good reasons to return to ACR, especially after producing an HDR or Panorama image. The brush tools alone can make the trip worth while.

:thumbup: Works in CS6, as well.

What brush tools do you have in ACR that you don't have in CS6? ACR is an "overlay" editor, not a pixel editor.
