Read the instructions on the download page at adobe. I don't know what it is for macs. I suspect you need the 3.3 beta version to see 5D RAW files, even then they're not officially supported, but are reported to work.

The instructions are pretty clear. What is it that you don't understand about it? If it's step #3, you need to go into Finder and click on your main (system) drive. in the main drive, there's a folder called Library. Go into that and then look for the Application Support folder, etc. etc. This is what you're looking for: Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS2/File Formats.

Leo...I understand the path but when I go there it goes to
Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins but there isn't a plug ins folder there.....

my friend also has tried on her Mac and the folder isn't there either.....don

Are you using PSCS or PSCS2? I do know that these two version put the plug-ins in different places.

ok everybody, thanks for the help....I read a post a short time ago about camera raw 3.2 working with the 5D...ok, I downloaded that and nothing...then Leo got me thinking with his post above...I downloaded the beta version 3.3 and the new DNG converter....everything is fine and working.....crazy, after opening the 3.3 file...the missing plugin file was there where the path stated....dunno...anyway....as always....thanks again to all you guys and gals........don
