You didn't say which version of CS you have - so I assume since you're having problems you don't have CS5 which opens 7D CR2s natively.

I have CS3 (and a 7D) and the version of camera raw that I have is 4.6 - which dosn't suport 7D CR2 files.

The only workaround I can find is to download 'Adobe DNG Converter' and convert the CR2 to a DNG (Digital Negative) and then open the DNG files in Camera Raw.

This is an annoying extra step, but works fine and doesn't degrade the original RAW file. In fact the DNGs are slightly smaller, so you can throw away your CR2 files and save a little disk space.

Get the DNG conveter from here:
