P: (Sonoma) DNG Profile Editor Not Working

[Mihaudrops]

Hi everyone.  So I need to do a little bit of digital infrared processing. With great enthusiasm, I jumped straight  into the subject and began by downloading Adobe DNG Profile Editor... Only to discover that it doesn't seem to work at all. After reading comments online, I've come to realize that it might be an issue with my Mac being too new, and Adobe hasn't released a newer version of the software compatible with M1 Pro onwards.

Do you have any alternatives to suggest for this software, or perhaps know of a solution to fix this issue?

Thanks!

Here to say that the same is for me. Sonoma and DNG profile editor do not work. Might reimage my computer to Ventura if Adobe doesn't address this

Confirming the same issue. The DNG Profile Editor is critical for infrared photographers. RAW infrared images have a strong red cast that cannot be corrected with Adobe editing tools unless a custom camera profile, generated by the DNG Profile Editor, is first applied to shift the RAW image temperature toward blue.

I am not aware of any workarounds to this issue except to use a Windows machine or roll back the macOS to Ventura. Neither of these is practical for most users. 

Infrared photography is exploding in popularity, and a lot of folks are getting stuck on this issue. Instructors of the medium (myself included) teach the use of DNG Profile Editor as a fundamental step in post-processing. I hope Adobe will provide an update for us soon.

I fully agree with Rain's comments above. We need to be able to create a custom camera profile for ACR using the DNG Profile Editor to enable infrared photographs to be taken. In my case, it is for the iPhone 15 Pro Max. We shouldn't have to use workarounds which are beyond the technical skills or equipment of many users.
