Album starter edition 3.2 won't let me copy/paste pictures

hello,
photoshop album starter edition 3.2,winxp home,dell dimension 5100,lexmark x3350,3gig ram.
this program will not allow me to copy/paste any pictures from MY PICTURES/DOCUMENTS. they ALL go into the photoshop program. i have to right click on the picture, use the SEND TO option, send it to my email and transfer from my email (sometimes this path will not allow the picture to enter where i want it to go because of the extended path).
is there a way to bypass the photoshop?
thank you.

Album Starter Edition 3.0 Won't Initialize

I had Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0.1 installed to service my Epson scanner and learn how to work with digital images. I built a file in the album that contained a few unimportant photos it imported from another computer on my LAN. (I really don't know how Photoshop works yet with regard to where the files go or are copied.)
I apparently attempted to delete one of the photos. I remember answering yes to having it removed from the hard drive completely. I think I interrupted that process because the cursor kept spinning for quite some time and I had to use Cntl-Alt-Dlt. Subsequently, each time I attempted to bring up the program, I would get the initialization window, the cursor hourglass would turn, but the program wouldnt expand. A quick check of its status through Cntl-Alt-Dlt showed it was not responding.
Ive uninstalled it through Add/Remove Programs on my Windows XP Pro machine several times with the same results. Even tried reinstalling in Safe Mode with Networking (and without) but the op system wont allow it. The window tells me it cant use the Window Installer it needs and suggests Im in Safe Mode which, of course, I was at the time. This was one of the helpful hints on the Adobe website for FAQ. Unfortunately, it didnt solve the problem.
All other programs seem to operate without incident and the system seems to have suffered no ill effect but I am concerned. I ran Microsoftss Onecare (http://safety.live.com/site/en-us/default.htm), found no virus, cleaned the registry, and cleared the Temp files as recommended by the programs report. I have not reinstalled Album yet; Id like to get a better understanding of what the problem could be. I noticed there are several other postings from people who have had similar problems problems but they either were more complicated or went unanswered.

I set Explore to display hidden files then ran a search as suggested. Zip! Ran another with the two names run together. Zip! Finally ran on as "*.psa". Still zip! The program was removed about three times and I haven't reinstalled. Would prefer to have an understanding of what's going on first.
Is it possible MS's Onecare cleaned everything up and removed it? Probably not if it's a folder that stands alone... but I don't really know. The other possibility is that when I hit the instruction to delete a photo, I may have deleted the entire catalog. Possible? Or if the name of that catalog got corrupted somehow.... how would I find it? If the name DID get corrupted... it would be the extension that was changed as well 'cause nothing was returned in the search for "*.psa".
Looks like I'm not the only one having trouble though. Someone else has posted similar occurrences since I posted this. Perhaps something else is going on if that program seeks information on the net before it sets itself up. I'm really at a lose.

It is a common misconception that Starter Edition 'stores', or copies, your files into it. But the program does not move or copy files at all, rather it scans your system's My Pictures directory, and generates miniature versions of your pictures (called thumbnails) so that you can browse a 'flat' list of thumbnails of your photos, overcoming the inconvenience of having to go into separate folders in Windows Explorer to have to find files.The thumbnails, as well as any tags, and Albums that you create in Starter Edition are all stored in the Photoshop Album catalog file, separate from your pictures, and your pictures remain where you originally copied them to your computer.
If you use Photoshop Album to subsequently download files from a digital camera or scanner, the default location where the program will create those files would be in the My Pictures>Digital Camera Photos folder. But if you do NOT use Photoshop Album Starter edition to download files from your camera, then you will find that folder empty.
The thumbnails in the Starter Edition catalog will exist, even if you decide to move or delete the original photos that were added to the program. This will cause files in the Photoshop Album catalog to become 'disconnected' from the original photos. To reconnect the files, you can use the File>Reconnect Missing files command to see if the program can locate the original files in a new location, and once again re-link the catalog thumbnails to the files they once referenced.
Since Photoshop Album has been discontinued, I recommend that folks find an alternative solution. One alternative that will preserve most of what you've created in Starter Edition is the Photoshop Elements 8 trial. Install that, and it will automatically convert the Photoshop Album catalog to a current format, and the program will not time out, as Starter Edition did. If you want to purchase more Editing power, you can also choose to purchase the full program, but it's not required.
If you are like many who have come to this forum wondering how you can get to your photos, now that the program has become locked or expired, don't worry; your photos have never been moved by Photoshop Album; they remain wherever you intially put them, on your hard drive. To get to them, you can navigate your file system using Windows Explorer. They are typically in your My Documents>My Pictures folder. Here is a handy How-To that you could refer to to find photos on your system, as well as some other tips for how you can use folders to keep your photos organized: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/maintain/filemgmt.mspx
Hope those tips help!

Migration of Photoshop Album Starter Edition 2.0 to new PC ?

With 12.000 pictures classified and carefully tagged in Photoshop Album starter 2.0 on a PC running Windows Xp, I'm now migrating to a new PC running Windows7.
Installing the software and all pictures was easy, but there are no tag anymore !!
To keep those tags ( a lot of days of work ), would it be effective to upgrade on my old PC to Photoshop Elements, and after, migrate on the new one Photoshop Elements ? Is it safe to upgrade to Elements ( won't I loose, not my pictures, but my tags ) ? Will Elements create files with the tags, so I can easily copy and migrtae those ?
Many thanks for help

Thank you Mark ,
This is a very quick and complete answer and I was lucky enough to be able to download the needed software.
Unfortunately, when I tried to upgrade Phtoshop Album Starter Edition 2.0 to 3.2, it says that the tags will be kept ( saved ), but when opening 3.2, all pictures are there, but no tag at all ....
Is there anything else ( or more ) I could try to recover those tags ?
Thank you for your help.

Adobe photoshop album starter edition

Can anyone help me in regards to the Adobe phots album. I have downloaded picture to this photoshop and it will not let me save any of my pictures to "My Pictures" can someone advise me on what to do?

Hi, I am new to this, being a great grandmother sometimes I am a bit slow. I have made a slideshow in the Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 and it works good. I had problems trying to figure out how to get it done step by step. I do not have a manual for it as I bought this Hard drive from another person. Does anyone know how I can print up the instructions either from the program ( which I didn't see anywhere ) or if I can get it off the internet?? Help on this would be appreciated.

PS Elements catalog problems from Album Starter Edition

I have PS Elements 11 installed on my new notebook. I have copied all my photos from my old PC into the Photos folder on the notbook (running Windows7). I then imported them into PS Elements. I had them all catalogued on the PC under PS Album Starter Edition. I have copied the the catalog .psa file as suggested in the instructions & used the convert command under Elements' Manage Calalogs. Everything seemd to go as expected; all my 'Collections' came in as 'Albums' & all my Tags are there.. But none of the images are being read. All the thumbnails are the generic flower image. It seems tthe catalog is still pointing to the old D: drive on my PC& it wants me to "connect the external drive". What have I done wrong? Have can I fix this? I have nearly 9000 photos & hundreds of tags etc. I will break my heart to lose the cataloging.

Thanks so much, Andaleeb, for your interest in my problem.
The last idea I had was similar to your suggestion - to connect my new
notebook (on which I have PSE11) to the old PC (which has Starter Edition
on it), using Peer to Peer by wireless, so the notebook could see the files
on the PC.
Then Import the images into PSE11 from the "external drive" - this I
managed to do fairly easily.
Then I thought I should be able to access the Catalog file on the PC, in a
similar way from the notebook via the wireless connection.
My thinking was that it then should not be confused about where the images
were actually located; and I would then be able to send a backup
instruction from PSE11 to the files on the PC; and THEN - restore from that
backup, and using the fact that when restoring, PSE11 asks if you want to
relocate the files and catalog to a new location - and I could choose to
relocate them on the notebook.
However, although I managed to import the images into PSE11 easily, I could
not get it to recognize the catalog (.psa) file on the PC via the wireless
connection. I checked & rechecked that I had the relevant folder set
correctly to 'share', but no luck.
I don't know why this was, because it you copy the catalog file to a usb
stick & plug it into the notebook, it can pick it up OK.
So I tried that anyway, and converted the catalog again from the usb stick,
hoping that since the import of the images was via the wireless connect,
PSE11 now 'knew' the images were located on the 'external' PC hard drive;
but still the converted catalog would not function. Same as before - all my
Albums & Tags were listed correctly, but all the image thumbnails changed
from correct images to 'lost' generic Adobe flowers.
At that point, I lost heart & decided I would have to abandon the project &
just start the massive task of re-cataloging. I have a total of 64Gig of
photos, of which about 12Gig were cataloged. Very sad!
Now your suggestion has inspired me to give it one more try. It might make
a difference to have PSE11 on the PC working locally rather than trying to
negotiate the external drive thing. I had forgotten that I can do this with
a trial version.
I will let you know how I go.

Unlocked, Registered and Working (Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition v3.0)

Following several threads in this user-to-user forum, I lodged a bug report with Adobe and to my amazement, was promptly helped out of the sticky situation of not being able to connect to the internet/register Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition v3.0. After providing all my details and Windows version etc, Adobe came back with an unlock code matched to my email address and ... razzamatazz...problem cured. Moral is simple: lodge a bug report providing all information then and subsequently to Adobe, and sit back.

The same thing happens to me, I've gotten the code and the "unlock now" button won't work. I've tried cut and paste and manually entering. I've tried registering again, and I've deleted the entire program and started over, still can't get the "UNLOCK NOW" to highlight for unlocking. Can't get code to "Enter", what am I doing wrong?

I have an old photoshop album starter edition and it used how do I get the files on it

I have an old photoshop album starter edition and it used to work fine with the unlock key – now it just shuts down when the code is entered. Is there something else I can do or is there another program that will let me capture the photos that are in the files of the starter edition?

Photoshop Album Starter Edition support withdrawal FAQ

Will Photoshop Album Starter Edition support taskbar with "auto-hide" on?

I am using Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 on my Windows 2000 computer, and I have a problem with my taskbar not popping up. I have the "auto-hide" selection on for the taskbar, so it stays out of my way when I am working in applications. However, I have to hit the "windows" key if I want to switch from Photoshop to another app.
I looked through the support site and found the article that Album 2.0.1 fixes this bug for Windows XP. However, the problem still exists with Album 3.0 and Windows 2000. Will this bug get a fix soon?

You may already be aware of this but you can shift to another open application by pressing the Alt key and the tab key together. While Holding down the Alt Key, press the tab key. You will see a small window with the application name in it. When you press tab repeatedly, the application name will keep on changing in the window. When you let go of the keys, the application whose name is in the window will be activated.

Burning Photos is Photoshop Album Starter Edition

HELP:
1) I have tried to copy all the photos to a CD-RW disk using Windows Explorer and I have had no luck copying and pasting.
2) I then used Photoshop Album Starter Edition "Burn to CD" option. When I do it this way, it does burn all photos to CD but completely locks up my computer and makes my Drive E: unusable. I have to restart the computer to use Drive E: again and also to check the CD to see if photos are there.
Could you tell me what I am doing wrong in both cases? Thank you. Elyse

Jim:
I have a Canon A95 Digital camera. When I download the pictures I download them into ZoomBrowser EX and then use the "Get Photos" in Adobe PSE to input them into Adobe PSE. When I get pictures through email I put them into "My Pictures" and then use the "Get Photos" in Adobe PSE to add them to Adobe PSE.
I also have PhotoImpression 5, Microsoft Picture IT Photo 2002 and MGI PhotoSuite 8.1 but I have not really read up on any of them. When I got the camera, I tried using the ZoomBrowser EX and PhotoImpression 5 software that came with the camera but I found that Adobe PSE was much easier to use (eg. fixing pictures, red eye, etc.).
If I can provide any further information, please let me know.
I know that I can backup all my pictures in "My Pictures" but I just thought it would be nice to backup the Adobe PSE catalogue.
I had to reformat my computer last year because of a different problem and I want to be able to always have a backup of all my photos in case that happens again or even if I have a computer crash.
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

How do I get my videos to all work correctly in Photoshop Album Starter Edition Ver. 3.0?

I have been using version 3.0 for the last 3 years and had no problems with any of my videos playing once they were downloaded from my mobile phone or camera to version 3.0 until August 2007 but now a lot of them say 'The selected file cannot be played'. All the files that don't work are '.AVI' files and the only thing I can see they have in common is that in the file name it says -1x-1 next to the file size and length of the clip, whereas the working files have full numbers i.e. 640*480. I still have a couple of files downloaded after August 2007 that do play but not many. Is there any way I can change the settings or recover these files so they will actually play?

It seems to me that these problematic files may not be .avi files, or are corrupted; it doesn't seem likley that it's a setting in Photoshop Album Starter Edition.
Do any of those files play in Windows Media player? Another possibility could be that these files are sidecar files to your video files; are there similarly-named video files that work fine? If so, then I would suspect that these .avi files are, again, not .avi files, and could be simply text info that goes along with your .avi files, and could be ignored (removed from the catalog).
