PSE 7: Editor exits to Organizer - Bug?

Hi, I did ask this question once before, but it may have gone to the bit bucket. So I try again if any of you have an idea why the Editor shows this behaviour. Thanks for any "illumination"!
I wonder if the following is a PSE design feature or is really a bug.
- In the Editor I have, say, 3 pictures open.
- I finish editing one and close it.
- Now the Organizer opens automagically!!!
- I would prefer the Editor to remain open so as to continue to edit the other pictures.

John,
Excuse me... I did not properly give the details.
Always use the Organizer. My wife has 37,000+ pictures in her catalog, running Vista on a quadcore with 4 GB.
- Open Organizer
- Select pictures for editing, Ctrl + I, leave Organizer open
- Open Editor
- Edit various pictures
- Finish one picture, Ctrl + S with "include in Organizer", then hit Ctrl + W to close that picture
- Organizer window now opens (I hav it full screen), Editor's window now behind Organizer
- Now have to go to task bar and click Editor again when I really wanted to stay in the Editor
I said "bug or feature" as I suspect that it is a feature to maybe give you the chance to tag the picture. However, IF it should be that, then the Organizer should/must immediately jump to the Import Batch screen.
What is your opinion?
Regards from Austria,
Alexander

  • Does Adobe offer just the PSE 11 Editor without the Organizer?  I use Lightroom to manage my photos.

    I no longer use the organizer but use Lightroom 4.  However I would like to upgrade to PSE 11 without installing or paying for the organizer.

    The Organizer is part and parcel of the installation and of PSE's coding. After Install you can ignore the Organizer and just use the Editor. This what I do...Lr 4.2 is my DAM and raw convertor, and for any further adjustments I send images across to PSE11 Editor.
    The price is what it is...includes both Organizer and Editor, and there is no way of  separating these 2 components, and therefore there is only either the upgrade pricing or new pricing for the program, as a whole.

  • Everytime I transfer from PSE 11 Editor to Organizer I get a long delay

    Everytime I transfer from PSE 11 Editor to teh Organizer I get a long dely with the rainbow colored spinning circle.  Does anyone have any ideas on what may be causing this issue.  It makes editing a few pitures a very frustrating as I often spend more time waiting on the system than I do editing the photos.

    Hi bschep24,
    A single license you can install it on two machines using the same serial key but cannot use it simultaneously on both the machines but one at a time.
    You can install PS11 from the direct link: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l .
    Kindly follow the very important instructios before download.

  • PSE 7 Won't open photo  in Quick Editor from the Organizer using Vista

    I just installed the PSE 7 on Vista and am unable to open a photo in the quick editor from the organizer. It doesn't matter if its a raw file or jpg file. My ram memory is 3.0 gb and I have a duo core processor with 2.0 gb each. I've downloaded the plug in for the camera raw plug-in 5.2 and also deleted the organizer's preferences. Any other suggestions what it could be?

    >difficulty opening.
    I do not quite understand what you mean by "diffuculty" so suggest that you be more specific about what happens.
    Then also tell us if you have the same results when you select just one jpeg and attempt to go from the Organizer to Full Edit.
    Next try editing that same jpeg file by going directly from the Welcome screen to Edit and then use the Editor workspace File menu to open that jpeg file. Post your results.

  • PSE 12 Endless loop at sign in for Editor. can access Organizer not Editor

    I was using PSE 12 when my computer crashed. It was workiing but then I was getting the message that I had a trial copy.  Finally
    I uninstalled the previous version of PSE12, then disconnected the Antivirus and Firewall.  I downloaded and installed PSE12,  When going to the Icon for PSE 12 on my desk top and the program start page comes up with a choice of PSE 12 Editor or Organizer comes up, I go the Editor. I am not accessing the middle of the page where the PSE 13 Ad is. I am able to Access the Organizer.Have tried to enter the Editor from the Organizer, no luck. 
    I am still on an endless sign in loop with my Editor. It says that my password and email do not match. When I establish a new password and try to "sign in" it take me to the Editor/Organizer access page. And it starts all over again.   I can access the Organizer but can not access the Editor, even from there.  I have downloaded the PSE 12 from the site that the "Tech" recommended, but still have the problem.  they sent me here.

    First go to this link and see if you can sign in:
    <Sign in - Adobe ID>
    If you can sign in then you need to try to reset your editor to defaults by renaming one file to .old.  the file is located at this link:
    <C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\12.0\Editor>
    Replace USERNAME with your Windows profile name could be something like:triz112 or whatever you use to go into your windows system.
    The file name is currently called:  Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Prefs.psp
    Rename it to:  Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Prefs.old
    Now restart your PSE/Editor and then see if it works.

    Try making a direct desktop icon for the Editor and see if you can launch the program directly from the desktop.
    Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
    Browse to Computer OS C:
    And find the PSE Editor application:
    C: >> Program Files (x86) >> Adobe >> Photoshop Elements 11
    Within the Photoshop Elements 11 folder find PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe (the application not the Adobe shortcut)
    Select that file and click Next.
    Then click Finish.
    You should now be able to launch by right-clicking on the new desktop icon, bypassing the welcome screen. Try choosing “Run As Administrator” That often improves stability.

  • Borderless printing from PSE 7 Editor

    Having some trouble printing borderless 4x6 images from the Editor in PSE 7, (I prefer printing from the Editor over the Organizer due to its higher quality output).  I've tried a myriad of different settings from the Elements print dialogue window and am unable to consistently print images without some border being present, either just on one side, or on a top and side together.  Sometimes I can successfully print without the borders, but then when using the same settings on another image, I'm frustrated to see some type of border return.  The image in the print preview window will also vary from one image to the next, sometimes with borders, and sometimes without, however even when no borders are present in the preview, they'll still be there sometimes in the print. Never had a problem like this with Elements 4; using an Epson R1900, with printer driver set to borderless. If anyone else has encountered this, or has suggestions on what to do, I'd love to hear from you.  Thanks!

    Yes seems this is a bug. I will try using printing in PSE 8.0 when it will be released.         

  • Can't I use my Scanner with the Elements 10 editor without the organizer??

    I have been using Photoshop Elements for a looong time to help me create the product images I need for my online business. It's been a love-love relationship... until I took advantage of a special offer and bought Elements 10. Now it seems the only way I can scan images is thru the Organizer.... and the organizer is something I don't need.
    Is there a way to scan my images thru the Editor only... and completely bypass the organizer (as I'm able to do with my older version of Elements)? Like a twain plugin I can install or something?
    I may scan 10 images and decide to use only 3 of them... and those are the only ones I save.
    With the way PSE10 is set up using the Organizer to scan, it's saving all 10 of them. Not to mention the extra steps of scanning thru the Organizer... (which means that pop-up window for my scanner every time), back over to the editor to pull the images in for editing, back to my files to delete the ones the organizer saved that I don't want... etc etc etc.
    It's like 5-6 extra steps altogether and a huge time-sink for me (you know the old saying... time is money).
    If there's no way to bypass the Organizer for scanning.... can I get a refund on my purchase? My older version of Elements works beautifully for me...  I was just hoping for  more sophisticated image editing capabilities.
    VERY frustrated right now.

    Thank you very much for your explanation which I fully understand.  Since a "fix", as you say, is not a solution might it not be a good idea to alert purchasers of the latest editions of Elements that they have an option to try this alteration to the installation in order to be able to import images from a scanner?  (My own experience with versions prior to 9 always worked perfectly!)  I do not know but does Photoshop CS5 allow the user to import images from a scanner or does the user have to use a similar solution to what applies to Photoshop Elements?  I find Elements to be a very good app and am sure it is a good selling product for Adobe for amateur/semi-pro users that the alternative that I suggest may be a useful tool for existing or new users who want or need the capability to import from a scanner rather than having to go through other more difficulty and time consuming ways of doing the same task.  Kindest regards and with my best intentions.

    It's not a "fix", exactly. The TWAIN plug-in causes a lot of crashing in PSE so in the past couple of versions adobe makes you install it if you want it.

  • PSE 12 EDITOR CRASHES

    The PSE editor keeps crashing. Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Concerning the PSE-12 Editor, I find that this crashes after editing 10 to 20 JPEGs of ~20 Mpixels (not tried raw files yet). I have used at least three earlier versions of the editor on the same machine and in the same circumstances and none of them ever crashed (unlike the Organizer).
    The crash either leaves a trace in the Event Log, just blocks, so one needs to kill the process with the Task Manager, or says that it has a lack of memory. These are the symptoms of a classic memory leak.
    After getting advice from Adobe, I switch off all start-up processes with MSCONFIG, but the Editor still crashed (after 25 files this time).
    Does anyone else have this problem? I would be very surprised if I am the only one...

  • Text size in PSE 7 Editor menues / toolbars

    Hello, with my new 16.4" Laptop and 1920 x 1080 resolution I have problems in properly reading the text in PSE 7 editor menues and toolbars - they are so tiny.
    Increasing Windows font size (DPI) in the Control Panel only works with "Windows-related" programmes (e. g. Windows Explorer) but it does not affect the text size in the PSE menues (it does make the 'welcome screen' which invites you to choose between Editor, Organizer etc, bigger, though, and also the drop-down menues that appear after you click on a menue item). Decreasing the resolution is not a solution, as it makes the whole display blurred...
    Is there a solution at all? I'm using Windows 7, if that's relevant...

    hi , well to increase the font size ,just go to properties and then on settings.
    From there you can go to screen resolution and increase or decrease as per your wish.It worked on my system ,so try it out.

  • PSE 7 Editor Crashes

    I am using PSE7 on Windows 7 Pro.  Have used this in the apst no porblem.  The editor now crashes each time I try to bring it up.  I have already renamed the TWAIN file with a ~ in fromt of the name and I have used the ctl+shift+alt to reset the editor settings file.  All of these have not yeilded any results.  The only software upgrade performed since loading PSE 7 has been to uninstall Adobe Acrobat Reader and install the latest Adobe Acrobat Reader Software.

  • PSE 8 Editor does not open

    PSE 8 editor has stopped opening. I've tried opening it from the organizer and from the welcome page. The loading-the-editor box pops up like it's going to open, but then the loading box goes away with no editor opening. I tried un-installing and reinstalling the program to no avail. The computer has Windows 7, 64-bit. Any help would be greatly appreciated... the PSE organizer portion is pretty worthless without the editor!

    It sounds like you could be experiencing a conflict with a scanner driver.
    Go back the Program Files (x86) >>Plug-ins>>Import/Export and delete the TWAIN driver.
    Elements will work without it, but if you have scanner and want to scan directly PSE you'll need to install an up to date driver from the manufacturer's web site.
    If you don’t use a scanner there’s nothing to worry about.
    If that doesn’t work you may need to re-build the preferences.
    You do that by holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift whilst simultaneously clicking Edit on the welcome screen.
    When you see a pop-up behind the welcome screen click yes, to delete settings.
    Then re-start Elements and it will re-build the preferences.

  • Mac app version of PSE 9 Editor

    I bought the PSE 9 Editor for Mac a couple of years ago (while still in the workforce).  And, now that I am retired I am starting to use PSE 9 and using the great video tutorials available.  However, I noticed (during a recent tutorial) that the "Organizer" icon (tab) was not available above the Edit, Create, Share tabs.  I have tried everything, but I still can't find it.  Help!!!

    As an user of PSE9 myself, i can testify that since the mavericks update the organizer is broken, so maybe that's why it's not bundled anymore.
    I.m actually evaluating Elements 12 and the organizer work fime, even found back the "export" feature that was missing on EO9 mac version but present in the windows version.
    So i think i will upgrade before then end of my trial period.

  • PSE 9 Editor CRASH

    Hey all! I need a little help.
    While I am trying to edit a photo I often select 'Place', 'Open', and adjust the layers. Since early this morning I have selected 'Place' to import a picture to my canvas in Editor. The program immediately closes and reads "An unexpected error occured." I then re-open and try selecting 'Open' to start editing a photograph not from the Organizer. The program immediately closes and reads "An unexpecte derror occured."
    I have reset or deleted the preferences in PSE 9 Editor from the Welcome Screen. I have also renamed the Twain file name, and adjusted the RAM used by my software. Nothing has worked so far, and I am very confused as to what I should do.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

    What operating system are you using?
    Have you applied the latest patch to PSE to bring it up to version 9.0.3?
    Have you changed anything to PSE, such as installing a plug-in, or an action, or brushes?
    Have you changed anything to your operating system, such as installing new hardware or updating device drivers, or installing or un-installing any software?

    PSE is a 32 bit application, so you can up the ram as far as it will go and it will still not address more than 3.2GB. However, ram-related crashes are almost unknown on macs (if your mac can run a current version of OS X it has enough ram). At this point I would uninstall via the uninstaller, then check around for any left over bits and bobs, and create a new admin user and reinstall there. See  how it runs in that account before you switch back to your regular account.
