Bug - Subfolder naming issue in Photoshop Elements 10 Organiser

Upgraded to the latest version of Photoshop Elements and very dissapointed that Adobe have introduced a bug.
For European users, Photoshop Organiser 10 creates sub folders in the format yyyy dd mm.
Should use the format yyyy mm dd as with previous versions.
The only workaround I have found is to display photo dates using preferences to US format mm dd yyyy
This is unacceptable.
I understand that Adobe have no plans to release a bug fix
I personally am going to use Windows to import my photos in future and won't be rushing to upgrade!

Hi,
Have you added your name to the list
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/photo_downloader_on_os_x_uses_wrong_ shot_date_for_jpeg_files
I know it says OS X but various similar reports seem to have been merged in with it - if the count gets very high then that should encourage Adobe to do somthing about it.

Have issues emailing photoshop element 12 photos via gmail.

Issues sending photoshop element 12 photos via gmail. I cannot zip the files (too large) and have tried to convert PSD to JPG

There is a limit to the file attachment when sending through AdobeEmailService. You may try using Outlook or other such desktop email clients if working with larger attachments.

IPhoto 11 bug when using external editor (Photoshop Elements)

In iPhoto 11, my iPhoto database is confused/corrupted whenever I edit a picture in my external editor (Photoshop Elements 8). I believe this is an iPhoto problem because the picture is not corrupted until I quit iPhoto try to re-open the edited version.
Steps I take:
1. Pick a file, and "Edit in External Editor". Duplicate of the file is made (ThisPic.jpg becomes ThisPic_2.jpg), and that duplicate is opened in PSE. I edit the photo in PSE, and hit Save - PSE updates ThisPic_2.jpg. I close PSE, go back to iPhoto, and I can do whatever I want to the file - double click to view larger, export, everything seems fine. When I pick "File | Reveal in Finder" and use either the "modified file" or "original file" option, they take me to ThisPic_2.jpg in the finder.
2. Close iPhoto
3. Re-open iPhoto
4. Now, that file seems to be corrupt in iPhoto. I can see the thumbnail image for ThisPic_2.jpg, but nothing else works. I double click on the file, and I get a black screen with a triangle and an exclamation point in it. When I try to export the file, nothing happens.
The interesting thing is when I go into "File | Reveal in Finder". When I pick the "modified file", it doesn't seem to find it - I am shown the root of my hard drive in the finder. But when I pick "original file", it takes me to ThisPic_2.jpg, and I can use preview to see that my edits are still there.
I copied that file to the desktop, re-imported it into iPhoto, and I can access that photo again through iPhoto - everything works, even after I close and re-open iPhoto.
I reported this through the iPhoto Feedback option. I thought I'd share what I found in case it helps anyone else.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I get the same response when I follow your workflow. If you select the thumbnail of that photo and use the Photos ➙ Revert to Original menu option you will be able to view the photo in full size.
Evidently editing in iPhoto with an external editor puts the edits on the duplicated original file and puts that file in the same Masters subfolder as the first file was imported into. Once iPhoto is restarted the links are messed up and the Revert gets rid of the "edited" link and keeps the link to the file in the Masters folder.
It definitely is a bug. However, it's not taking up more space on the hard drive than the edit that resulted in a modified file linked to the original file. There still are just two files.
Subsequent edits to the file with the external editor result is the edits being added to the file with no problems if iPhoto is closed and relaunched. The downside is that if you make 3 edits to the file you can't go back one edit. It's non reversible. The edited version can be deleted leaving the untouched original version.
Subsequent edits to the same file with iPhoto work as usual, with a modified version being created.
So Old Toad, I have just gone from iPhoto 9 to iPhoto 11 and step by step this is what is happening for me.
In iPhoto 9 if I selected photoshop to alter an image it created one duplicate version of the image and put that into the modified folder and that edited image became the image you would see in the events viewer. All very logical.
Now iPhoto 11 is doing the same for me but is creating multiple duplicates ie. everytime I select photoshop to edit an image. One image I edited recently has now got 6 versions in the library. If that is the way iPhoto works then that will be fine as it is doing it's job for me but the caviat is have I got 6 times the memory space being used up or does it just appear that way? If the memory space useage isn't being increased then I am OK with this new way of doing things but if the memory space is being used up then it is a fiasco - especially as apple are concentrating on writing their systems to use up less space than before in line with current thinking.
Look forward to you clarifying this point if you can.

Issues with Photoshop Elements 12

I am already using Photoshop CS6 and was informed that I can also purchase and install Photoshop Elements 12 on the same PC (Windows 7).
This I have now done but after some installation issues I am now experiencing a problem with the camera raw part of Elements. I am receiving an error message when I try and send the edited raw file to the main Elements program. The strange part is that if I open the same raw file again in Elements camera raw and try transfering again it works OK. Can there be a conflict somewhere?

Hi,
Could you tell if you are facing this issue with Elements Organizer or Editor?

Facing issue with Photoshop Elements 8

I have just purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 and I am transferring photos from my Pictures file which is in Windows Vista. I ha
ve created a number of catalogues and made a number of albums within each one e.g. a category called My Holidays with albums of each
place I visited. Having created the first catalogue, I then created an Album named after the first holiday venue. All of the photo
s of that particular holiday were displayed individually on the organizer work space, however, as I downloaded more albums, I discov
ered that all that was happening was that they were all being downloaded under the same catalogue title which was fine except that w
hen I clicked on any of the other individual album names in the same catalogue to examine the photos in that album, I downloaded the
photos from every album in the catalogue. A single click on an album icon gives me a blank screen and a double click shows the who
le catalogue. Dragging an album icon to the top LHS “Find” corner shows the name of the album but no photos are downloaded into the
work space.
How do I get only the photos of one album into the workspace without deleting all of the other photos in the catalogue? Basically a
ll I want to be able to do is click on an album's icon and see the photos in that album. Can you help me to resolve the problem ple
ase.

Same results with different file?: Yes
Same results with different computer?: Not Applicable
Recent System Hardware or Software change?: No

In the browser window where you see all of your photos highlight those you want to place in an album (click on the first and hold down shift and click on the last) then drag the album icon from the left panel to one of the selected photos and it will place them all in the album.

Unwanted folders in Photoshop Elements Organiser

I've recently started using Photoshop Elements 13 on a new Windows 8.1 Laptop.
I've started bringing some folders into the Organizer and have had some unwanted ones turn up...
The unwanted folders have names like festive, confetti and album_16x9_c71ff90be..... and they all appear to have a single music file in them and be located in the slideshow > themes > assets subfolder of Adobe. Given this folder isn't within the Pictures folder I've set Adobe to look at I don't how the folders have ended up in my Organizer.
So, I'm seeking assistance to:
- delete the unwanted folders and files from my organizer which I haven't figured out how to do; and
- work out how they ended up there so I can make sure it doesn't happen again.
Thanks in advance for any help!

- delete the unwanted folders and files from my organizer which I haven't figured out how to do;
Have you tried going to Watch Folders options and then delete from there? See this picture:
To get to this screen, Launch the Organizer and then Go to:
File >> Files folders (this 5th item from the bottom)
Good luck.

Spot healing brush issues in photoshop elements 11

I am new to photoshop elements 11. I am trying to use the spot healing brush. I select "content aware,' "sample all layers," and a brush, but I only get the cross hairs of the cursor, and not the black circle. My cursor preferences are currently at the default. I get a black line when I press the mouse key, but nothing changes in the photo. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
Sue

I found that I had some problematic brush settings. I've developed this checklist for when I have similar issues:
o Try changing the px on the brush slider in thespot healing tool
o Go to the BRUSH tool (B), change opacity asneeded (probably 100%), go to the brush settings drop down and change thehardness (again probably to 100%)
o Check that CAPS LOCK is NOT on
o Go to the center icon (lower right by the ?),drop down, then select "reset all Tools," then restart the photoeditor
o Then try to reset the editor preferences: Quitthe editor, restart it from the welcome screen while holding downctrlshiftalt, then say "yes" to delete the settings file
You don't have to do all of these things. They are just things to check when you have brush problems. So now I'm working OK. I hope that this works for you.

How to move photos to external harddrive with Photoshop Elements Organiser 9 - Mac user

I have managed to move a few photos using the organiser to an external harddrive as a trial but noticed that the photos are all stored straight onto the external harddrive and not kept in the subfolders that they are in on my harddrive. Is there a way to keep them in the subfolders - which is basically mostly folders indicating the date they were taken?
I also noticed that PSE 9 organiser is very slow - I have a lot of photos and a lot in raw - about 21000. Is it better to use LR to catalogue them?
Last question, has anyone else experienced problems since upgrading to Mavericks when using PSE9? Is there a fix? I read that upgrading to Yosemite has improved how PSE9 works but after my previous experience with upgrading to Mavericks I am not in a rush to upgrade.
Thanks

Imcompatibility issues with Photoshop Elements 4.0 Software Installation and Windows Version 7.0?

Does anyone have a solution so that I can begin using this software immediately? Assistance with this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Kalari12 Mylenium has a point that the software may simply not function as Windows 7 was not even in the beginning of development when Photoshop Elements 7 was created. You are welcome to post the exact error message you are receiving and I can check our knowledgbase.

Need help with startup Sync issue with Photoshop Elements 8.0

When starting up Photoshop Elements 8.0 a brief dialog appears about sync space being filled up with options for Cancel or Proceed. This is then quickly covered up by the frame showing Survey/Show What's New/etc... cannot get back to dialog about sync space. Only way to get into the program is to click on the right arrows in the Welcome to Elements frame, start a tour, click right arrow until Go box is presented and then click on Go. Major PITA to do this. If we are quick, we can click on the initial dialog and click on Cancel or Proceed and get into the program without the covered up frame. We are running PSE8 on Windows 7.
I have shut off sync and still this problem remains.I have been a loyal Adobe product user but this Automatic Sync stuff is really starting to get VERY irritating.
Thanks for any help that can be provided.

A lot of people are finding the same frustrations. Apparently PSE8 does not let you select start up with the Editor but forces the welcome screen on users. This is a classic case of Adobe not knowing what customers want and giving us what they think we want. It ignores the fact that the majority of users will have upgraded from earlier versions.
You can make quick short cuts. If using windows right click on the desktop, select new short cut then browse to program files, Adobe Photoshop elements and scroll right down the list and click on Editor; then finish.
You can do the same for the organizer and then launch each one independently.
You need to think carefully whether you need to keep everything in sync with Photoshop.com. Several users have found problems when they have quickly used up their free storage capacity and then have to pay Adobe an upgrade fee just to continue using the program, otherwise they are locked out.
