Photoshop RAW problemsSolved/Closed

Question

I recently bought the Canon 50D and am having problems now downloading RAW images into CS3.  I've updated the drivers for Canon, and tried to update the driver for Adobe but it is asking me for my Serial Number to continue with the upgrade.  The problem I have with that is my son through away the box! Now I have no serial number and can't process my RAW files! Can anyone help?

I use CS4 on a Mac and had this problem.   I downloaded Camera Raw update from Adobe website and it works fine.

This download of "SoftKey Revealer" might be able to recover your key from the PC.  It's worth a try:

I'm having the same issue with my new Canon 50d and I downloaded the softkey revealer and that didn't find the key to photoshop. I tried downloading the images on a friends computer who has a mac and iPhoto as well as the new photoshop and the images still don't come up. Someone please help!

the problem is as follow ... camera raw 4.0 and 5.0 have only a limited file formats recognized( beeing only the  basic program) in order to read cr2 format (form canon 50d) all u have to do is update your camera raw (the update will add cr2 format and others) ... for this (to update photoshop and camera raw) open photoshop and go help >> updates
I have personally tried both  for cs3 (camera raw 4.x) and cs4 (camera raw 5.x) and it works ... for relevancy I also own a canon 50d and shoot in cr2 .... good luck
