DNG Converter - OS Pre Mojave

[kassenah40323396]

I factory reset my machine and took all precautions to be sure I could get my machine back up and running with the older El Cap OS (10.11.6) - since Mojave won't run CS5.  However Adobe only has the DNG converter for 10.12 or later anywhere online.  Am I missing something?  Do they still have the DNG converter for older macs.  Adobe is usually pretty good about not phasing out support programs.

The adobe dng converter 10.5 is the most recent version that works on Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6.

vidjay,

What camera are the camera raw files from?

You can look here and see what the minimum version of the dng converter is required for your camera

(it's the same version as camera raw)

Hi Jeff,

i use Camera EOS R6 Mark II.

my macbook is:10.11.6

According to the link I need DNGconverter 15.0.
When I try to install DNGconverter 15.0, I get the following error:
dngconverter 1.5.pkg cannot be installed because the digital signature is invalid.
Will you please help me?

I do have access to an install of Mac OS X El Captain 10.11.6 on a 2009 Mac Mini with

Photoshop CS5, but unfortunately after some research and experimentation i was not able

to find any software that would open the Canon EOS R6 Mark II .cr3 files.

The one promising software was MetaRaw a paid for photoshop plugin, however, support for the Canon EOS R6 Mark II has not been added, though there are recent cameras such as the Nikon Z9 that are compatible, so the R6 II may be in the works.

It might be worth contacting them to see.

In the meantime do you have access to a later macOS 11 Big Sur, Monterey, Ventura or a Windows 10 or 11 system from which you use the Adobe DNG Converter 15.x?

Hi Jeff,

I own Windows 10 Home.
There I downloaded DNG 15
When installing I get the following error:
This program does not support the version of Windows your computer is running.
Can you please help me further?

Did you download the Adobe DNG Converter 15.4 from here?

I downloaded 15_4 DNG converter from the site.
Unfortunately I get the same error message.

If your Windows 10 is not updated to a recent build that could be the issue.

Have you installed all the latest Windows 10 updates?

To check for updates, select Start > Settings > Windows Update , then select Check for updates
