Digital Photo Professional 4.11 Can't Convert and Save

Andy4

I am using DPP 4.11 and trying to convert and save a RAW file to a JPG file.  The software doesn't seem to work. the pop-up window apears, I press save and pop-up window goes away but no file is saved.  

 

I am using MacOS Catalina 10.15.

 

When I save the RAW file with edits. opening the file in Preview or Photos in the MacOS i only see the orginal RAW file and not the edits. only see the edits in DPP

Seems to be  a  reported problem with Catalina. Try using Batch Process instead; I have seen where that works.

Thanks the Batch Process worked.  Even to the same folder.

The output from DPP is usually a JPEG file.  DPP will not overwrite JPEG files under any circumstance.  It does not give you an error message, it just simply skips executing the task.  If you are editing JPEGs, then you must save the output to another folder.  I use a sub-folder, which is easily selected when using the Batch Process.

What is the Batch Process? I can't save into jpg too, using Catalina.

Many thanks,

For whatever set of reasons, DPP will not overwrite files when you create output JPGs.  The Batch Processs is best explained by trying it.  Select two or more files, then select the Batch Process in the Files menu.

Help

 

I tried Batch processing which seemed to work and create a .JPG file.

 

However the files created can't be opened or worked on.

 

 

Hey there,

 

What program are you trying to open it in, and where in your computer are the JPEG files being saved?

In windows I've seen this happen when you try to save the converted files to the same directory as the original.  Are you selecting a differnt save to folder for converted .JPGs?

Must be big in the DPP for concert and save. It would not do for RAW file to JPG file in same or different directory. Only Batch save worked. Batch would give you an error message if you tried to batch save a jpg to same distort with same name.
