Books on Photoshop Elements 10

Focal Press offers 3 books on PSE 10 which are still available at B&H. Does anyone a preference and/or recommendation?
I have been using Elemenst 10 for awhile and shoot in raw. My problems are with the basics of organizing, key words, and backing up now that the Adobe online backup service is being changed.
The three are:
How to Cheat ...., by Asch and Caplin
Adobe...Elements 10, by Andrews
Adobe...Elements 10: Maximum Perfornmance, by Galer and Chatteraj

Click once on your desktop so that you are in the Finder. At the top of the window you should see this:
You will see this menu:
Now hold down the Option key and you will see the Library:
Choose that. In the window that opens, scroll down to see the Preferences folder. It's easier to find if you have your window in list view. To do that, click this icon at the top of the window:

I created a photo book in Photoshop elements 11 that contains png files with the invisible backgrounds. When I export the book to a jpg or a pdf, the png files appear with white backgrounds.

jpg and pdf formats don't support transparency. You need to use a format such as tif, png or psd that does.

New Mac Book and Photoshop Elements

My daughter just bought a new MacBook (Mac OS X 10.5.4 2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM) and tried to install my Photoshop Elements software onto it. My Photoshop is kind of old (Elements 2.0), but I use it on my Mac all the time with no problems. But when she installed it, it didn't work right. When she opens it, it goes through it's usual start up stuff, then she gets a window that says "An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred because of a program error. Photoshop will now exit." What does this mean? Is there anything I can do to help her use this software?
TIA,
Sue

Photoshop Elements 2 is not compatible with Leopard. Versions 3 and up will work.

Making a book in Photoshop Elements

I read that Photoshop uses Shutterfly to print books; I am in New Zealand, do I have access to the same service as I couldn't find anywhere in Elements to do this?
Secondly, my book pages start with a title page which I presume is for the inside. I want to print a cover for the book also, do I need to do this separately?

If you have a CREATE button in elements, then choose photobooks. If you have a Shutterfly option, you will find it there. If not, no problem. On the Shutterfly website they provide blank templates for each size book. Follow the templates to create your own pages. They also provide templates for the cover, spine, and backcover. Otherwise, you can use the Shutterfly serviceand upload your pictures to Shutterfly and create your book there.

Book for Photoshop Elements 4.0 Mac

PE4 has been available for the Mac for at least several months but every book in the bookstore is specific for the Windows version only. Is there a Mac version published yet or will there be? How much difference is there between the Windows and Mac version (if I bought a Win book, would I be really unhappy and frustrated)?

There are no books specifically for PE 4/Mac. Since the windows version was released 6 months before the mac version and nobody had access to the mac version at that time, no publisher was willing to wait that many months to include the mac keystrokes (although I believe Richard Lynch's Hidde Power book may do that, since it was pretty late in arriving).
However, the editor part of PE is exactly the same on either platform so you can use any Elements book if you substitute Command for Ctrl and Option for Alt in the keystrokes and ignore anything about the organizer.
EDIT If Adobe does eventually release a mac version of PE 5, you can expect pretty much the same situation again, BTW.

Printing book through photoshop elements 6

How can I print a photo book i have edited through the services of photoshop? I try to order it and it tells me there is no service. I want it printed the way I edited it. Please advise.

Does this happen only in PSE6 or in other programs that can print graphics, like Acrobat or Word or PowerPoint?
I only ask because my LexMark started to vary color saturation shortly before the print head dumped an entire cartridge onto one page and it gave up the ghost.
It wasn't just pictures. Word documents would go from light to dark. Graphics (business cards, labels) would print bright and then dim on the same page.

Looking For A Good Book Or Manual for Photoshop Elements 3.0

Photoshop Elements 3.0 is my very first photo editing program and am looking for a book that will show me how to use all of the features. Comments on the following 3 books would be greatly appreciated.
Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 Classroom in a Book
The Photoshop Elements 3 Book for Digital Photographers
Photoshop elements 3: The Missing Manual

I have PE3 so would be glad to pay the shipping if they are of no use to you anymore. Would both PE2 and 3 be necessary or would PE3 be good enough? Should I contact you by email?
Ken and Colin, your comments are a great help too. Thanks for the responds. I'll look online for The Photoshop Elements 3 Book for Digital Photographers. Wasn't thinking...the only ones at the stores are the more current versions.

Photoshop Elements 7 tutorial book recommendation

Hi - I'm looking for a recommendation for a practical, how-to book for Photoshop Elements 7. I am new to the software and have purchased a book which is pretty good but it's still too much like a technical manual. Two books by Avi Muchnick, "When Pancakes Go Bad: Optical Delusions with Adobe Photoshop" and "I've Got a Human in My Throat: MORE Optical Delusions with Adobe Photoshop" teach how to use the software in a practical fashion using fun projects - not just telling me what each function does as most technical manuals do. The sample images are also included so that the user can work along with the book making it a truly a hands-on experience which is what I want. I'm told that most of what is in these books applies to PE7. I have two questions:
1. If anyone has used either of these books, how well did you think they related to PE7?
2. What other book would someone recommend as a good hands-on PE7 tutorial? I do not have a very fast internet connection so, for now, I would prefer to learn using a book with software if possible. However, I know there is a wealth of good on-line tutorials out there so any recommendations for those would also be appreciated.
Thanks!

I have used "How to Cheat in Photoshop Elements 7" and found it interesting.
But you can find lot of stuff online specific to your requirement.... Usually I prefer to read PSE blogs or online tutorials whenever I have any specific requirement in terms of Editing....

Photoshop Elements - Free Books

Hello!
Sorry for the noob question! Is there a free/cheap/deal book on Photoshop Elements for starters to buy or download?
Otherwise, which one would you suggest?
It has to be a learn-yourself kind of book cause i don't really want to get courses! No time.
Thank you in advance for any answers.

The link below should be of good use:
http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-photoshop-elements-9/what-is-adobe-pho toshop-elements/
Also, check the other episodes under the drop down menu labeled - More Episodes in this Show
Product help - under help menu should also be good to start and learn over new things.

I have just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements onto my Mac Book Pro (10.9.4). The installation to my hard drive went fine so I attempted to use Elements on an existing Photoshop file. I did not see the Elements option in my filter menu and am uncertain as to how to "add" the Elemnts to my existing filter choices. Please advise.

I'm sorry but it's very hard to understand what you mean. What filter menu? In which program? Do you mean you're trying to use PSE as an external editor with some other asset management program? Which one?

I am using Photoshop Elements 11. Do all .jpg formatted file have to be retangular in shape? I want to create an oval .jpg picture to insert into a book. Haven't been able to do so. It would work if I could make the area outside the oval completely transparent. Can anyone help me here?

JPG does not support transparency, so even if you create an oval with transparent background, the saved JPG will have white background. Instead, save it as a PNG, TIFF, or GIF which preserve the transparency.
Here is one of many ways to create your oval:
Create a new file the approximate size of the oval. Add the oval with the Custom Shape Ellipse tool, and simplify the shape layer.
In the Layers Palette, Ctrl-click the oval to select it and copy the selection to the clipboard (Edit > Copy).
Then do File > New from Clipboard. This creates the oval with transparent background cropped to the oval size.
Then save it as one of the file types that support transparency (and also supported by the application where you are sending the picture to).
Note: Is is not even necessary to do step 2. That is only if some reason you want the oval to be tightly cropped. It is sufficient to delete the Background layer in step 1 (or turn off its visibility) and save the file. The oval will appear correctly in the book with either version.

Photoshop Elements 8 has error 150:30 on Mac Book Pro

I bought the ibook version of "Photoshop Elements 11: Classroom in a Book"

Hello
the ibook version of photoshop elements 11: classroom in a book did not come with the lession CD that normally comes with the hardcopy of this book. I was wondering if there
was any way of getting the Lession CD because the ibook is worthless to me without the lession CD.

There should be a link to these files at the back of the book. For example in PSE 10 the page looks like this:
You could try substituting the ISBN number in the above book to see if it works.

I just loaded Photoshop Elements 11 Classroom in a Book lessons and now I cannot open PS Elements 11

What do you mean you loaded the lessons? They should just be sample files to follow along with the book. This likely has nothing to do with the issue you are encountering.
Do you get an error message when attemting to launch?
