Are borderless prints possible in Elements 4 for Mac?

I have worked in Elements 2 for years in Mac OS9 with lovely consistent results. Have now upgraded to Elements 4 for Mac (iBookG4, OS10.4.8,1.5G RAM) and am having problems. I am getting a handle on the processing menus, but cannot figure out how to print borderless prints. I have been doing it for years - 4x6, 5x7, 10x12 - in Elements 2 on my Epson Stylus Photo R300. I have tried setting parameters in the Print Preview dialogues, in my printer menus - cannot make it happen. I assume it is something I am doing incorrectly or not doing. Please help! Thanks.

Barbara,
I tried after downloading the most recent drivers - still no luck with borderless. I have emailed Epson Tech Support for suggestions. I am confused about the driver situation. I go to Print Preview (am still unsure of what selections to make here to get the proper orientation - it seems to do portrait when I want landscape and vice/versa) - I usually try 4x6 or custom and type in the actual dimensions to fill a 4x6 borderless (based on what I would do in Elements 2). Then I go to Page Setup - select the R300, then in Print I select the R300, 4x6 borderless and Premium Glossy Photo Paper. The Print Preview at that point still shows a border, atho it is grey, not white, and when I print, I get a white border. The orientation thing seems to be a bug - when I choose Landscape in the Printer driver, I get portrait in the Elements 'preview'. Sorry to go on so long, but I thought maybe there might be something in this that might give a clue - I really can't afford to buy a new printer right now, and have no idea how to look for a driver. Thanks for your patience.

Photoshop Elements for Mac - Three Versions Installed

Hi there,
I'm cleaning up stuff on my iMac and find I have three purchased versions of PhotoShop Elements for Mac installed, V4, V6 and now V8. Can I safely remove the old V4 and V6 versions without them affecting anything in V8?
Also, there are other versions of related software, such as Adobe Bridge, then Adobe Bridge CS3 and CS4. Can the original and CS4 versions be removed.
What else might have multiple versions relating to Photoshop Elements?
Can I remove these by simply deleting them from the Applications or is there a process which needs to be followed, i.e., an Uninstall?
Guidance much appreciated.
Lynn

"Never delete anything, just buy a bigger hard drive"!
After I admit to being "slightly eccentric", let me say I don't know why you even need to uninstall any of them. The only caveat there is you can't run two versions simultaneously. I have PSE- 5 & 7 installed on one of my computers, and I import the same file into both catalogs, while duplicating the folders on a separate HDD also. You can never be to sure, or is that too insecure, I'm not really sure.

Choosing paper type in Photoshop Elements for mac

How do I select paper type in PS elements for Mac OS Lion 10.7?

You do this in the OS X print window that appears after you click Print in the PSE print window. You may need to expand the window by clicking the Show Details button, and then you'll see a pulldown menu in the middle of the window where you make your choices for paper, ink, etc.

Blank DVD Template in Prem. Elements for Mac

Years ago when I was a Windows user I LOVED using Premiere Elements to import and edit home videos. The editing, chaptering etc was so easy and I I was really happy with the final product. One thing I really liked was when I created the DVD menus etc I had access to a blank DVD template so I could use my own background picture etc. I never cared much for the "themes". Is there a way with the new prem elements for MAC to have a blank DVD template?

As usual and as I remember you to be you are so helpful! What I would like is to have to custom templates. The first would be just a generic background where I could insert my own picture. I don't use video link boxes or anything so I prefer the links to the "menu markers" to be just text. For instance, say I am making a DVD of a theatre performance. I would like a general "play all" button that will play the entire performance. I would also use a "Act 1" button and a "Act 2 button". I do chapter each scene but to avoid having 10 pages of "scenes" I'd prefer the "scenes" to not be accessible from the main menu. Most every DVD from theatre to concerts to home movies I do like this. I only like to have one main menu menu. No submenus. I used to have 1 custom template that did that. The second one would be exactly the same but would offer a "scenes" button in the instance I did want to add a "scene" menu as well. I really, really hope this makes sense.....
And I don't want to come across as crazy, but when I installed the demo on PE9 on my mac, I only have one template called "fun" and I can't change the background image. There is a little dropbox within the menu that I can add a video or pic, but that's only a small hole in the template, the rest of the background I can't change. I'd be happy to take a screen cap if I am not describing it correctly...
Short story long, it sounds like Steve both templates you said are for free on your site will do what I am needing to do. How do I go about downloading them?

Printing with PSE 8 for Mac

Hi,
hope some of you may give me some help.
Have tried to print with PSE 8 for Mac, but in the printing options there is none where i can choose the type of paper (ie: glossy, premium glossy....).
My printer is an Epson Stylus Photo 1400.
It works fine with iPhoto, here i can choose paper type. And prints come out fine.
Thanks for any advice,
dangerly

My printer is a Canon so not entirely sure if this helps but when I print from PSE 8 I do not get to choose the media type until I have clicked on the print button in the PSE dialog box. I am then presented with the dialog box for my printer where I can set the media type amongs other attributes.
It is normal for the media type to be the job of the printer driver so perhaps it is the same for your printer.

It is likely due to the settings in your Language & Text Preference Pane. You will want to check the Preference pane and ensure English is at the top of the list.

Photoshop Elements for Mac OSX 10.5.6 Version?

I'm confused. Is there an Elements for Mac in Version 7. I called the sales line and they told me that for a Mac I would choose Version 6 for Mac??? Is Version 7 for Windows equal to Version 6 for Mac?
Thanks!

Yes, there is no version 7 for mac, but it doesn't really matter, since most of the changes between 6 and 7 were bug fixes in the organizer and the push to use photoshop.com. In the editor, there aren't huge differences between the two programs, just a couple of new tools. For 10.5.6 PSE 6 is the one you want, especially if you have an intel mac.

Language for Premiere Elements, for MAC

Hello,
What's the reason for doesn't launch Adobe Elements for MAC (last version = 12) in spanish language?
Thanks

tutan25
Some purchased Adobe Premiere Elements Editor or Adobe Premiere Elements Quick Editor from the Mac App store instead of Premiere Elements Mac from Adobe.
I checked online regarding the Mac App store and their Premiere Elements offered...
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/purchases-mac-app-store-faq.html
looks like last date on document is around May of 2013.
Note that even there
Spanish is not an included language for "Photoshop or Adobe Premiere Elements".
Curious.
I suspect only Adobe has the answer for no Spanish version of the product. You could contact Adobe via Adobe Chat to determine what workaround, if any, exists for those wanting a Spanish version of the product.

Cant print black from excel for mac 2011 anymore only colour

I can't print black from excel for mac 2011 anymore only colour. Can print normally from all other programs. Will not work from excel. Will only print colour. Have reinstalled printer drivers with no difference. Brand new mac so should be no font issues. I have to screen print all excel documents to print. Wont work if saved as PDF either. Am looking for suggestions. Have checked all preferences and settings. Tried fine and fast - no difference. Comes out blank. Will only print colour. HELP!

I have a variation of this same problem. I maintain a bunch of Microsoft Excel 97-2004 Workbooks. Some of these documents print in colour (actually a light grey colour), while others print in black ink. I cannot discern the difference between the documents and why the difference in printing.
Thanks in advance for your assistance,
C.

Just download the Trial version and activate that with your serial number when you install.

Adobe elements for Mac and CS5 for Mac

Hi, I have two full licenses for photoshop, one for elements and one for CS5. Would it be possible for me to swap the Elements 8 (mac version) for Elements 8 for PC. I want to teach my son to use Elements for his college work, while he has a PC and I have a mac. I bought the Elements for a course that only used Elements but quickly as I moved on I had to use full CS5. I can't remember if I used the elements serial number to upgrade to CS5, where I should have CS4 serial number.

Hi,
As per adobe policy on cross platform swap : http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405819.html.
"You can swap only current versions. If you have a previous version, you cannot swap to a different platform or language of the previous version--instead, it's necessary to upgrade."

Can't print wirelessly since Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 4

I have an HP Officejet J4680 All-in-One, and have been printing wirelessly from my Macintosh (OS 10.5.7) since I purchased the printer in December 2008. However, after I installed the Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 4, I suddenly lost the ability to print wirelessly. I've spent hours on my own and on the phone with HP trying to figure this out, with no success. When I uninstall and reinstall the printer, I can get to the point in the HP Setup Assistant in which the network configuration has been successfully downloaded to the printer (I see an IP address, Subnet Mask, etc.), but then I get an error message of "Device Not Reachable . . . please make sure that your Mac has access to the network and retry." My Mac does have access to the network because I can get on the internet wirelessly.
I've tried entering the IP address manually, etc.--but nothing has worked. It's as if the printer is on the network, and the computer is on the same network, but they somehow can't talk to each other. Anyone else notice this problem, and how do I solve it?? Thanks in advance for your time!

Hello Laura C. I haven't noticed any problems with my wireless connections to my Canon printers, at home or at work, and I have the Update 4 installed. I also cannot think how this update would have impacted your ability to connect to the printer, except maybe due to a reliance of the HP software using Java to operate. But this should not have stopped your existing connection from working, only a new connection...
Apologies in advance if you have already been through the following, but if you were successful in entering an IP address manually, I would then check that you can get a response from the printer. The best tool to use is Ping. Open Applications > Utilities > Network Utility. Here you will see the Ping tab, as well as several other IP tools.
Before you select Ping, select Info (it probably has defaulted to this). This pane shows you the current IP address settings for your Mac. Since you are using wireless, change the drop menu from en0 (which is Ethernet) to en1 (wireless). This will show your current IP address set in the Mac. Make a note of this.
Now select the Ping tab and enter the IP address of the HP. Change the number of pings to 4 and press the Ping button. If the addresses are correct and the network infrastructure working you should get a response. If you get something like " 4 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss", then that would explain the unreachable message.
The biggest cause of this symptom is subnetting. To explain further, an IP address consists of two parts, the subnet and network address. The subnet is determined by the subnet mask. If you have a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, the your subnet is the first three sets of numbers in your IP address and the network address is the last number. For example, an IP address of 10.0.1.10 and subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 has a subnet of 10.0.1 and a network address of 10. For devices to communicate on a local network, they typically need to have the same subnet and a different network address. Can you confirm the subnets for the Mac and printer are the same and the network addresses are different.
If you get responses to the Pings, which indicates the IP addressing is okay, the other services like firewalls can stop some printer utilities from working correctly. Have you checked your System Preferences > Security > Firewall setting is set to allow all incoming connections?
