Hi,
I've just purchased the Canon 7D Mark II, connected it to my PC, but then found that Adobe Camera RAW doesn't support it yet. Any updates when this camera might be possibly supported?
It has been indicated on this forum that the camera will be supported in the Camera Raw 8.7 final release. It is NOT supported in the release candidate that is available right now. No release dates, but presumably before the end of the year. Take note that Camera Raw 8.7 is only compatible with Photoshop CS6 (new camera support only) and Photoshop CC (complete support including new features).

No, the work for the DBGC 8.7 RC on Adobe Labs was finalized before the 7D Mark II came out, so we’re all waiting for the final version of ACR 8.7 to include support, for this and a few other very new cameras.

I'm struggling with this new release. I'm getting error messages that ACR 8.7 & DNG Converter won't install. Lightroom 5 did install just fine. CS6 install however didn't work. So here's my problem. I've been using CleanMyMac 2 and Apple's Yosemite. I'm told that CleanMyMac2 may delete Adobe management files making updates have these error problems.
Extension Manager 6.0.8 Update
Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7
Adobe Photoshop 13.0.6
Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7
I contacted MacPaw Customer Support and they sent me a MacPaw Support Tool that grabs all system activity and creates several logs.
Should I actually use this tool to gather that information and send it to them. Seems scary giving them these files. Can anyone give me advice?
I really need CS6 update so I can shoot RAW files with my new 7D Mark II. Maybe I need to just reinstall CS6 and hope I can restore my presets and plugins.
Thanks- ROGER

Thank you . . . ACR Installed and happy that my Canon 7D Mark II is compatible.
I appreciate your help - - User error is 99.9% of the problem and I fit into that category. I'm glad for people like you that help people like me!

Ideally you should not be using Cleanmymac as it does make changes to files which can impact working of Adobe Photoshop. It probably thinks those files are not being used, If still you use it then make sure it does not touches your Adobe Photoshop folder installed in /Applications.
You need not uninstall, Reinstaling would also work.This is required to repair the crticial files which have been modfied or deleted, For patching these files are critical and it fails if these file are in anyway modified by external tools.This can happen if you have disk cleanup tools like MacKeeper or Cleanmymac.

Iv got my self a Canon 7D MkII and wondering if Canon RAW will support Photoshop Elements 10?

The 7D2 came out after PSE13 was the current version of Elements so you’d need that. Adobe stops updating older programs when a newer version comes out, and Elements is new each summer/fall timeframe.
The DNG Converter 8.7 or newer can be used to convert a folder of CR2 files to DNGs that the older ACR plug-in can open in PSE10; however, both PSE13 and DNGC 8.7 have a minimum OS version of OSX 10.7 and Windows 7, so if you’re still running an older OS you may be stuck until you upgrade.

I can open my raw files in photoshop elements but cannot view them having imported them into my mac. I want to be able to see them in preview but they will not come up so this is a real time waster - what's going on! The camera is great but processing and being able to sort files is a must!

What are you talking about? If the DNG Converter supports the 7D Mark II then ACR & LR would as well.
The 7D Mark II raws were supported in ACR 8.7 & LR 5.7 back in Nov 2014, and tethering was supported in LR 6.0 back in April 2015.

You can update to the newest ACR for CS6 which is currently ACR 9.1.1.
You should try the update, now, to see if you can do it. If not then your computer may not be compatible with the minimum OS requirements which are newer starting with ACR 8.4:
