Drag and drop picture frames in Photoshop Elements 11 from one file to another?

Hello,
I am a digital scrapbooker.
I recently started using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11. I previously had been using Elements 7. I make extensive use of Picture Frames i.e "Basic Black 10px", and in Elements 7, it was very easy to drag and drop a picture frame from one file to another. (I use a separate file for each scrapbook page, and I often move pictures between pages as I scrap them)
In Photoshop Elementa 11, I can drag and drop a picture frame from one file to another, but ONLY if there is no picture in it. If there is a picture, I cannot drag and drop - the circle-slash icon appears showing that it won't land. I was able to do this in Photoshop Elements 7, whether or not there was a picture in the frame.
Any ideas of what I might be doing wrong, or did Photoshop Elements change this functionality?
Thank you!

I think this might be a bug in pse 11, at least on the windows version.
You might try right clicking on the frame layer in the layers panel, choose Duplicate Frame Layer and pick your other document as the destination.

Transfer photoshop elements from one computer to another

I want to transfer my photoshop elements from my macbook to my imac. What is the quickest and easiest way of going about this. I also don't want to loose any of my files.

Deactivating the program from one computer and then activating it on another is easy -- though how you do it depends on which version of the program you're using.
But you seem to have something else going on. What do you mean by "I don't want to loose any of my files"?
Are you also trying to move all of your image files from one computer to another? That's also easy using the Mac Migration Assistant.

And if you've got any more specific questions, you may want to post them to the Photoshop Elements forum rather than to the Premiere Elements forum.

How do I move Photoshop Elements from one computer to another?

I would just like to clarify first of all that I don't have a disc, and I didn't download it - it came with my computer when I bought it.
I've got the serial code and everything, but I can't find a way to download the Photoshop Elements trial so I can put in the serial code (none of the ones I could find work).

Download a trial version from
http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-9-premiere-elements-9-direct-download-links.h tml
Ensure that you follow the Very Important Instructions on that page before you click the download link otherwise the link will not work.
Launch the trial and enter your serial number to license it.

Drag and drop still frames

I want to export a number of still frames from a movie for insertion into a report made using Pages
At present I use imovie 6 HD and I can command F to save the frame to a folder of choice and later command drag and drop to insert the saved still frame within the confines of a table cell. I can also use quicktime 7 pro and command E to export as a picture
I got to thinking why can't I just drag and drop the frame I am viewing straight from the open quicktime window into the table cell in Pages. I just want the still frame not the whole movie.
Any work arounds?
Thanks in anticipation

Actually it is not such a bad idea as I email a pdf version to my customers anyway. Using PDF shrink I got a 66 meg pages file with 6 'stills' down to 106kb. It initially went down to 1meg just using export from Pages
The trouble is that the large size of the pages document makes it a bit slow to respond if lots of 'stills' are taken from a large movie file.
Shame there is not a keyboard combination to do what I wanted in the first place using drag n drop
I shouldn't complain though. I understand that the current imovie still can't export still frames at all.
Thanks again for your interest

Drag and drop Picasa Album Into Premiere Elements 10

I tried to drag and drop videos from an album I made in Picasa into Premiere Elements. No dice. I tried to drag and drop files from windows explorer into Elements. No dice. I have 200 files from various folders all over my machine, assembled in a Picasa album, and I have no way of importing those files into Elements from what I can see. Anyone know how I can do this?
I even tried to be clever, grabbing the Picasa XML file that contains the full paths of each file and then creating a space delimited list (with Quotes around each path) and pasting it into the OPEN FILE dialog. But there seems to be a maximum string length. No dice.
Your help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Keith

Yes, the PREL (Project) file is XML, however it is structured for PrE to be able to read (and write) it. If PrE can read the Picasa XML (the structure makes sense to the program), then it just might work.
Unfortunately, I have never used Picasa, so have no idea of its Album files structures. I also cannot recall anyone mentioning working with it, and PrE, but maybe missed that/those thread(s).
Other than the general observation, offered above, I have no useful knowledge on what might, or might not work. However, as you experiment, please update this thread, as it might prove very helpful to others - and I get to learn something!!!!
Good luck,
Hunt

Can I drag and drop an image into Photoshop

hello, as a first time user ive using photoshop on a mac at school. i just downloaded photoshop on my pc. i cant insert my image onto photoshop. the way we do it in class is drag the image to the ps icon and it will open with the pic. please help and if theres anything i need to know please inform me also. thanks for all the help!!! ps im also learning how to use intuos tablet with it

Welcome to the forum. I don't own a mac, so I may not be as accurate as I would like.
It may require photoshop to already be running for the drag and drop to work. Try minimizing photoshop then drag and drop.

Cannot drag and drop photos into folder on desktop from iphoto

Hope you can help. I was backing up a lot of photos onto an external disk yesterday, both from iPhoto and Bridge.
The photos that are now left in iPhoto cannot be dragged and dropped into a folder on my desktop. I had been doing this yesterday and it was working fine.
I also seem to have lost the RAW information from all the Photos and they will now only open in Photoshop if I drag them to the Photoshop icon on my desktop but they are only opening as JPEGs. Before that I could right click the Photo and choose open in external editor, it won't let me do that anymore.
Thanks in advance.

Maybe your iPhoto > Preferences > Advanced > Importing settings aren't set to "Copy items to the iPhoto Library"? If that's the case, iPhoto only references the photos from their containing folder without duplicating them, and if you move or delete that folder iPhoto looses the link to the originals photos.
If your iPhoto > Preferences > Advanced > Importing settings are set to "Copy items to the iPhoto Library" then the problem may also be related to what I consider a user interface bug in Mac OS X which allows you to access the content of the the iPhoto Library very easily from the Finder, which shouldn't happen (the iPhoto Library has been made into a monolitic file package in the latest versions of iLife specifically to prevent this):
Just search for any JPEG file into your hard disk and presto, every photo contained into that iPhoto Library file package appears in the Finder ready to be easily moved and deleted by the user, corrupting the iPhoto Library!
Maybe the new photos come up as JPEGs because iPhoto converts the RAW files to JPEG as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2297?viewlocale=en_US#one

I bought a 5th Gen Touch. I use iTunes 12 on two computers. One computer allows me to drag and drop. The other does not.The one that allows it has problems. Any idea as to why I can drag and drop on one and not the other. Both are authorized.

I bought a 5th Gen Touch. I use iTunes 12 on my two computers. I first connected the Touch to my desktop and it allows me to drag and drop mp3 files from my old Classic, which is backed up to a directory. Unfortunately, that computer has gone down before I got a chance to fill the Touch. I have the files on another computer but when I connect the Touch to it, it doesn't allow me to drag and drop the files. I have iCloud set on both systems and I have manual management check marked. I'm not understanding why it allows drag and drop on one PC and not the other when they are both set the same way. My question? What do I need to do to be able to drag and drop in iTunes 12? I didn't do anything special on the computer that allows it so I am at a loss.
Thank you!

Oh, also want to add that the PC I'm currently using is:
Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2
My other PC was:
Windows 7 Ultimate
My MacBook is:
Max OSX 10.5.something (the last update available for it. .8 maybe? haha)
Not sure if this stuff is important, but I thought I'd add it.

Ive brought new laptop and re-installed itunes now i carnt drag and drop my music to my iphone from itunes it just has a cross and wont transfer can anyone help

ive brought a new laptop and re-installed itunes now i carnt drag and drop my music onto my iphone i just get a red circle with a line in it and its not transfring on to my iphone can anyone help please

You will have to sync your iphone to this computer first, erasing the current content and replacing wioth content from the new computer.
Make sure you have copied everything from the old comptuer to the new one first.

Dragging image from one file to another in photoshop causes color hue to change

Can anyone tell me why this is happening to me?
When I have two image files open in photoshop and I dgrag one of them to the other file it changes color hue? The original image is in TIFF format. When I save that file two PSD and close it, then reopen it and drag it to the the other image file, it still causes hue to change. Opening the original file in AI does not change color? Anyone know why? Is it something with embedded profiles somewhere? If thats the case, how do I get rid of it or harmonize that between files so that I dont get color changes?
Thanks for your support
-Ben

It's Color Management 101:
Always honor the original color profile in which a file is created. Make sure the color profile is embedded, i.e. "the file is tagged" with said color profile.
When dragging one file over another, make sure they are in the same color space and bit-depth mode. If there's a mismatch, CONVERT (never "assign") the file you're copying to the appropriate profile.
If some moron hands you an untagged file, you're going to have to guess in what color space it was created by trying different profiles in the assign dialog box to see which one looks "better". Other than that exception of an untagged file passed on to you by a moron, make it a habit never to deal with untagged files.

How do I copy and paste a shape (or layer) from one file to another keeping all of its attributes?

Our department currently uses MS Paint to place varied colored boxes for callouts on top of screen figures used in our documentation. As you know, MS Paint is not a robust image editing application, and we are frustrated at its limitations (especially not having a "non-destructive" edit capability). Consequently, we are evaluating a trial version of PS to see how a workflow could be developed that would allow the department to use callout boxes "stored" in a PS file that could be applied in an easy, consistent manner to our screen figures (but also keep each callout box editable) using PS.
Consequently, in PS using the shape tool, I created a file with our colored boxes for callouts, each on its own layer. Now I am trying to determine how you copy and paste a box (or layer) from this file to a "working" file (one containing a screen figure), while keeping all of its attributes (color, line weight, being editable, etc.). I can't seem to find an option to do this. Is there? If not, is there another workflow in PS that you can recommend for this type of procedure?

Thanks - I used the Layer > Duplicate command and it worked great!
P.S. How do you drag and drop a layer? I tried dragging a layer to the other open image, but nothing happened. Do you have to hold down a specific key for this (I'm using Windows)?
