How to open (use) Raw files?

So I have seen the results of editing a Raw file instead of JPG, so I did a shoot shooting both RAW & JPG. Yet, I don't know how to open the raw file in lightroom :( When I go to import, it only shows the JPG. Any help will be appreciated!

If you have an older version of Lightroom you can not work with raw images from newer cameras. I had that problem. I had lightroom 4 and could not edit my images. I ended up using adobe cloud version of lightroom everything works now. I also had to upgrade my mac to Yosemite version to upgrade lightroom! Yes I am lazy and will put off until I have to.

I think cos of the same name, LR shows only JPEG. Try one JPEG file and rename it. You should now be abl eto import the Jpeg file and the RAW file. That was when I started shooting RAW. When I was at the beginning JPEG + RAW, I put the JPEG in an other Folder

Now I am shooting RAW only
