IPhoto 9 - Photoshop Elements 9: Saved photos not showing thumbnails

After editing iPhoto images in PE9 and saving them, I cannot see the updated thumbnail in iPhoto. If I double-click on the photo, I can see the edited version, but where is the updated thumbnail?
I read Old Toad's advice to set the file saving preferences in PE9 to overwrite the existing file, and that helped with the problem of having a strange file window pop up when I tried to save in PE9, but if there's another setting to handle this thumbnail problem, I haven't found it.

How are you doing this? It sounds like you might be saving as into the iPhoto library rather than correctly setting PE9 as the iPhoto external editor and then saving (not saving as)

Photoshop Elements 9 Editor menus not showing

missing Quick/Guided/Effects menus in Editor

It's Windows...when I click on any of the tabs, Guided, Effects, etc, it's blank (black background). It usually has the thumbnails, for example, under Effects, 'neon' 'sketch' all that is gone. A pop up shows up & states the Help content is missing & I might have to re-install.

Do you mean you can't see the words Full/Quick/Guided under the Edit tab? (There are no menus there.) Is the Edit tab active and not Create or Share? Windows or Mac?

Photoshop Element 8's Bridge not showing RAW thumbnails

Hello!
I use PSE 8 on a Mac with Snow Leopard. I'm shooting with a Canon EOS 550D.
Bridge used to display RAW thumbnails correctly, but it doesn't anymore. Just blank generic icons.
Now, I've reinstalled Camera Raw 6.1 (the Photoshop Elements Version), I've purged the cache (both globally from the preferences and locally from the Tools menu) in Bridge, but nothing has changed.
Thanks for the help,
Daniele

Thanks for that help. I had installed 6.1. It worked with my T2i Canon but didn't show thumbnails (except as generic icons) In looking at ADOBE help for PSE you get the idea that 6.1 is needed. Deleted 6.1 and downloaded 5.7 and now thumbnail photos work.

Photoshop Elements 10 - Marquee Tool not showing eliptical option

The Marquee Tool does not show the elliptical option. I am running on Windows 7. I do not know if the elliptical option was ever there since I am very much a novice and just learning now.

Elements 5 - Organizer will not show thumbnails

Recently moved Elements 5 to my new laptop - On the laptop the organizer will not show photos in any view other than single picture. Anything smaller shows the hour glass [also shows on the collections icons]. I deleated the first catalog transfer and have been only using new photos transfered from my D-50. It will run full screen shows just nothing smaller that a single picture view. I also uninstalled and reinstalled the Elements software.
I have unchecked the filer checker.
Systems is a Vista home premium 64 bit, 4 gig of ram, Lenovo ideapad laptop 5800T processor. Version 5.0.2
Any ideas?
Alan

I can't be sure this is the problem, but ...
Is this the first time you have opened PSE5 on this computer? If so, it truly is generating the thumbnails. Your statement about how in single image mode the thumbnail appears is a symptom of this phase of the operation. Just let it run. It will finish, and the problem will be gone.

PSE10 Set in iPhoto Pref, Opens on Edit, but Photo Not Showing

I just installed PSE10 (Upgraded from PSE 09) on MacBook Pro
I set PSE10 as default editor in iPhoto Preferences
in IPhoto when i highlight a photo and click on "edit" PSE10 opens just like PSE09 did, but no image shows in editing Window

Barbara:
Yes that was the problem.
How bizarre that they hide it away like that.
I, ego aside, consider myself reasonably computer saavy and able to diagnose and figure most things out, but that one got by me big time.
And burying it under a "sure to be ignored" file like "Support Files" is totally what my British friends over here in he UK would call "off putting."
Thank you a million times over - as especially since Adobe support is purposefully inaccessible.

Imported photos not showing thumbnails

I'm brand spankin' new to iMovie and can't seem to get my photo thumbnails to show.
I want to drag and drop folders into iMovie but when I do, all I get is a generic icon and no thumbnail of the image.,
They do show up when I preload them into iPhoto and then open iMovie, but I've got thousands of images and I'm not going to be loading them into iPhoto because iPhoto takes up so much space when you import images (about 2mb per image).
So, is there a way to get these thumbnails to show up? The images are jpg and CR2 and both worked with iPhoto, but not a direct import.
Thanks for any help!!
Brian

Check your camera date - typically this is due to the event sorting in to an expected place due to incorrect the incorrect dates

Can I FTP large photos directly from iphoto or Photoshop Elements?

I have been uploading large jpegs onto another server using ftp plug-in with Aperture. But it strips the photo info, captions etc from the file, which is crucial information for my clients. Does any one know why this is happening, If I could ftp directly from iphoto or Photoshop elements even, it would be easier for me as I don't find aperture useful for multiple batch changes in file names and captions.
Currently I have been editing the file names and comments in iphoto, exporting 'version name' (other wise it exports the original file name) to a folder on the desktop and then importing these files into aperture where I use a plug in AperturetoFTPpro. I do have the export version box checked and not the 'master' box - By now i've lost track of which it thinks the 'master' or 'version' is!
not sure what's causing the problem, iphoto or aperture.
When i look at the metadata in aperture, I can't see the captions, but if i open the same file in photoshop and do 'apple i' the info is there.

To the best of my knowledge, there's no way to FTP directly out of iPhoto that's built into iPhoto, but you can try asking in the iPhoto forum where if anyone knows how you'll be more likely to get a response. There is a third-party product called PhotoUpLink that the developer says works with iPhoto that you could try.
The same applies to your Aperture question; try asking in the Aperture forum, though if you're using the demo plugin that comes in the Aperture Plug-In SDK, that's really not intended to be "production quality" but rather just an example of plugin development, so it may well lack capabilities or otherwise have issues. You might take a look at PhotoUpLink or Uberload for Aperture,
Not using Photoshop Elements I can't say about that, but Adobe runs their own forums for that here where you could ask.
Regards.

How can I edit photos in iPhoto in Photoshop Elements? I select PE in iPhoto preferences but they stay in iPhoto for editing.

Here's something you can try with a copy of your current library.
1 - go to iPhoto's Events preference pane and set the auto split option to 1 day per even.
2 - go the the Events mode, select all Events.
3 - go to the Events menu and and select Autosplit Selected Events.
which will give you an event for each day.
4 - again select all events (although it might be better do to fewer at a time) and export them to your desired destination via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with the following settings:
The workflow above will produce a folder for each days photos with the date as the folder's title.

Yes you can. In iPhoto create a Album with the photos you want in it. You can drag them from your Events folder. In iTunes with your iPad connected go to Photos by cliking on your iPad. You can then select the album or events you want.

Adobe now hides the editor - what looks like it is not - you want the editor hidden in the support folder - see http://forums.adobe.com/message/3955558#3955558 for details

Hi Nealeh
Thanks i think I got it working of a fashion.
Except the replace colour, does not seem to end up with the colour I picked using the picker tool. Its as though it hads not replaced the colour but blended in the desired colour with the old incorrect colour!
Buy trial and error picking not the right colour but close - which when mixed with the existing colour is close.
Sorry I can't post the pictures as the Lingerie Mfg, has me under non disclosure.
The scenario is:- say a blonded mainly tanned model a high cut [at the hips] corsette style basque, with an ultra low bra line.
Our dear model, has just come back from St Barts with a fabulous Tan, and equally striking bold Tan lines!.
So we have great tanned legs, then the 'porcelain white band' where her swimsuit was.
Likewise we have a tanned face, and arms, shoulders etc and a great tan on the top of the cleavage, then it stops, white band to the top of the ultralow cut bra line of the basque.
She must have lived in like the most conservative bikini on the planet [50's style], for 2 weeks!
Had she had a normal skimpy bikini on, no problem!
If i don't solve it, she will get fired!
Not a lack of interest in your post, but I was out, and tried to log in to this site; which I could do, on my iPad Air / 5 [whatever its the new one]. And tried to 'sign in' - but it just hung at the
"Join Adobe Community" adobe sign in splash screen! with he little whell spinning around continuously!!!
I have Safari on this iPad. Guess that is all it runs.
So technology is not my friend today!

Can I link iPhoto with Photoshop Elements Editor?

The new AppStore PSE Editor doesn't seem to link with iPhoto like the full version

If you're referring to iPhoto on your Mac:
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note 1: screenshots are from PSE 10
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.
Be sure to select the correct item in the Adobe Photoshop Elements folder as the external editor in iPhoto:

How do I open files from an old version of iPhoto in Photoshop Elements 10 without losing date taken, camera settings etc?

I replaced my old iMac (Tiger) and saved the library from iPhoto. I installed all the old pictures in iPhoto on the new iMac (Mt..Lion). I received the new Photoshop Elements 10 for Christmas, installed it, and imported the iPhoto ligrary into PSE Organizer. All my pictures are now in iPhoto and Photoshop Elements 10 Organizer. The file info is available in iPhoto but all PSE 10 shows is the file size and date the pictures were transferred in. Even worse, when I try to open a picture from iPhoto library in PSE 10 Editor I get a message saying PSE 10 "does not recognize this type file".
