Whenever I import my Canon RAW files (.CR2) they always come in as big black images. I have tried clicking "Reprocess RAW", but it never does. Is there any way to get them to process? I would really appreciate the help.
Got a tip for us?

Canon RAW not coming into iPhoto

What camera? Every camera uses a different raw format. A cr2 from a 400D has very little in common with a cr2 from a 450D even.
OK my OS is 10.5.6 (I will probably update to 10.5.7 soon).
And my version of iPhoto is 8.0.2. And I have all the Mac RAW updates.
You would think it would. But for some reason it doesn't. Should I try another program? Preferably a free one.
Raw Photo Processor is one of the best raw processors I've found. I like the film gamma curve, just make sure you change the interpolation prior to saving, as it'll default to half-size.
That likely only shows the small embedded JPEG, which doesn't help with the full-sized image.
Yeah, it shows up on Cover Flow, but when I try to quick look it, it just turns black.
Yes. If your camera is supported in one of Apple's Camera RAW Compatibility Updates.
A new RAW Support update was just released. Whilst you should not need it for the camera you have you might want to try it anyway!
