Adobe Elements and Apple Yosemite

My sad story with Elements 11 today:
I wanted to modify a photo and clone some parts. I chose the clone tool, selected the point to start cloning and then — and then — tried to point and move where I wanted to clone. The result — clone would clone ONE point, but wouldn’t follow any path. I thought that maybe some preference had changed, since I do this often and never have a problem.
So…MANY HOURS later, after trying various things, googling, going to forums, re-installing Elements, talking to Adobe, etc. etc. — I saw one vague reference to Apple Yosemite problems with Elements. And, specifically using a trackpad instead of a mouse — apparently everything works with a mouse.
So…I finally downloaded a trial version of Elements 13 and what I wanted to do and have done before WORKS!
Now, all I have to do is BUY a newer version of Elements — what a deal!
So…if you know anyone having Photoshop troubles after having installed Yosemite on their MAC, and if they’re trying to use a trackpad — it might not work...

Hi,
We sincerely apologize for the problem customers are facing while using a trackpad with Photoshop Elements 11 & 12 on Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite).
We have been actively working with Apple to resolve this problem as quickly as possible. We're hopeful this will get completely resolved in an upcoming update of Yosemite(MAC 10.10).
In the meanwhile, you have two options to work around this problem:
1. Option1: Use a mouse instead of the trackpad
2. Option2: Install a plug-in which should workaround the problem
Plug-in installation instructions:
1. Close Photoshop Elements
2. Download this zip file to a location you can easily find (e.g. your desktop)
3. Unzip the file, WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin, and move it to the Plug-In folder:
• For Elements 12 – //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 12/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
• For Elements 11 - //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 11/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
You can verify the plug-in is installed by launching the Photoshop Elements Editor and choosing Help > System Info... Scroll to the bottom of the text in the dialog and look for the plug-in name "WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin".
Note: This plugin is a temporary workaround and should be used until this issue is addressed in Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite). Please remove this plugin once the issue is officially resolved by Apple.
If you are using a stylus in conjunction with a trackpad, you might see issues with your trackpad. Workaround in this particular case is to use mouse instead of the trackpad.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
vaishali

  • Adobe Elements and Premier 12

    Question.
    I had an old copy of Adobe Elements and Premier.
    I installed the new edition 12 of each and then deleted the old edition 9.
    When I installed the new Adobe Premier 12 at the installing shared technologies I get the message, "Detected Elements Auto Analyzer exe (dynamic link manager.exe) is currently in use.  Please close all exe(s) and try again.
    I have tried to reboot and reinstal, several times, to no avail.
    "How does one find and stop this exe from running?
    Thanks in advance. 

    restart your computer. 
    before doing anything else try installing again.
    if and when you see that message, press ctrl-alt-del > start task manager > processes and look for autoanalyzer. 
    click it and then click end process.  then click try again or continue with the installation.

  • Purchased Adobe Elements and can't find move tool?

    Your second post is blank. Assuming you bought PSE 12, the move tool is here:
    You need to be in Expert Mode to see the full toolbox. Click the word Expert at the top of the PSE window to go there.

  • I Have Elements13 and Apple Yosemite:  When I open the organizer, import and select folder it locks up.

    I am using PS Elements 13 with Apple Yosemite.   When I open the Organizer, import and select folder, it locks up.

    I Did what you said.  But when I click on Folders and try to open  a sub folder it still locks up. All of the media I have opened is not divided into folder. Is there any way to remove all of them and start over?   I have been using Bridge with PSE13 and it work great.  With Organizer I get missing files. My organizer PSE12 works ok on my laptop.

  • Elements and Apple OS

    I have Elements 10 on disc that came with a trial version of Premier Elements.
    I am considering changing from Windows to a Mac and note that you commence the installation with disc 3 rather than 1. Does this mean that both Elements and Premier are installed and if so can you buy the Premier licence at a later date if you subsequently desire.
    Customer Support cannot answer these questions! Why do they exist?

    Yes you can install the trial of PRE10 but adobe is only selling the current version PRE12. You may be able to find and old version of PRE10 from an on line retailer which would enable you to get the licence, however older versions are no longer supported.
    If you are getting a Mac, you may wish to consider buying the current combo (usually cheaper than buying the products separately especially from sites like Amazon and other on-line shops) for Photoshop Elements 12 + Premiere Elements 12. Both the applications are 64 bit on the mac which should give improved performance.
    I would suggest you download the free trial for each product (use the links below) and if you decide to keep them after 30 days of free usage you can purchase the boxed version from your favourite reseller and licence the applications without any further installation being necessary. The beauty of buying the boxed product is that the DVD’s enable you to install on both Windows and Mac. You are permitted two activations for each product.

  • I just bought Adobe Elements and I can not get New Project to work

    Adobe Elements was downloaded and activated, however when I attempt to launch a new project the program does not respond

    Are you asking about a video project in Premiere Elements? That program has its own forum and you'll get better help there, if that's the case:

  • I downloaded the Complete Adobe Elements and installed but ther eare No Program icons

    OK, I download the Complete Elements 10 via the singe download option. The installer ran to completion. There isn't a program start icon on teh desktop or anywhere in the start menus.
    Thre is a Folder on the desktop with all 6 contents ( 1-3 and 1-3hd) If I click setup.exe in any of those folders it asks if I want to Uninstall. Windows Control Panel shows it installed as well. Just no darnm way to start the program.
    This is Windows7 64Bit 3GHZ Quad-Core AMD with 8GB memory with the C: drive being a SSD. Speed and space is not an issue.
    I really hate a company that basically has tech support except during basically M-F 8x5. I guess people are supposed to take off from work to install software they privately purchased.

  • I need adobe flash and apple doesn't carry it?

    I need help finding a web browser since apple doesn't carry adobe flash.    Thanks.  Shannon

    None of the alternate browsers will play flash games.
    At best, they will play 70% of the videos in flash.
    If your primary interest is flash games, sell your iPad and buy something else.

    After downloading elements a screen appeared for a second final step to download it. after downloading premiere the second screen never appeared and I have tried twice to download premiere only to have nothing happen.

  • Confusion with Adobe Element and Lightroom?

    Hello, I am new to the Mac world and purchased the IMac. I loaded up some pics into iPhoto and followed a discussion regarding the "import" issues into "Lightroom". I followed the instructions with "Element". Question: Now that i've test a photo yet cleaned it up in iPhoto and a lil in Element, what is the purpose of utilizing Lightroom? i didn't see any tools that were any indifferent . . Pleas Advise!

    Thanks for the reply, I have to identify any direct questions relating to both products. I’m just thinking that both products are not needed.  The initial concern started when I couldn’t import IPhoto into Lightroom,  Element was the go between because it interacted with both IPhoto & Lightroom. Just wondering if both are needed.
    Please Advise,

  • Problems with printing adobe elements and imac

    elements 13 and new imac.  The printer settings are incomplete.  When I try to make adjustments to the printer settings not all the settings are there (i look on line and I am not seeing what I expect

    Are you new to macs generally, or just to this mac? Assuming the former, in OS X you make most of your choices for print quality, ink, paper, etc. in the OS X print window that pops up after you click Print in the PSE print window. The window usually opens as a little stub and you need to click Show Details to expand the window. Your print settings will be in the pulldown menu in the middle of the expanded window.

  • IPhoto With Adobe Elements Or CS4

    I'm trying to use iPhoto with Adobe Elements (and/or CS4) as my default editor.
    I have the files in RAW / NEF format and I click to edit in external editor.
    My goal is to save the changes I've made back into iPhoto (overwriting my old version) without saving it as an external file and reimporting it in.
    I read on an IPhoto site this;
    1 - select Photoshop 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..
    Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to work.
    When I save the file, it saves a JPEG version in the iPhoto directory, but it doesn't show up when I go back to iPhoto.  I'm also wondering why I can't save it back as a NEF file (shouldn't I do that since it's a RAW image to start)?
    What's the proper way to work with iPhoto and Photoshop?
    I know there are purists that seem to push to use Bridge, but i've grown to like iPhoto's features, tagging, etc.   How can I do this?
    Thanks..    

    This might be of some help:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    Click to view full size
    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
    Click to view full size
    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 9 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    Click to view full sizes
    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:
    Click to view full size
    NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds.
