Camera RAW Editing with Photoshop Elements 7.0

I am editing Canon Camera RAW format images with Photoshop Elements 7.0.
When I try to use the Clone Stamp option, an error message indicates that I need to change to 8 bit color to continue. I am also aware that some feel that 8 bit color is good enough. I would like to keep the 16 bit color.
Will upgrading to Photoshop Elements 8.0 allow me to keep 16 bit color?
Thanks

No, as far as 16 bit support, pse8 is pretty much the same as pse7.
Pse9 is due out within a few months, so who knows whether more 16 bit support
will be added or not.

  • Where is RAW editing in Photoshop Elements 13?

    I have purchased the CD for Photoshop Elements 13 (not the Premium version) and have uploaded to my computer. I have an Olympus XZ-1 camera and am saving images as RAW (.ORF) files.  I have uploaded recent updates to Photoshop Elements 13, including RAW 9.0. I cannot find reference in Help for Photoshop Elements 13 how to edit RAW files.  I cannot find a tutorial how to edit RAW files in Photoshop Elements 13. Do I have to purchase Photoshop Elements 13 Premium in order to have RAW editing capabilities?  Should I upload Adobe DNG Converter in order to edit .ORF RAW files with Photoshop Elements?  I did find a set of tutorials on the Adobe site called "How to make non-destructive edits in Camera RAW."  But Photoshop Elements 13 does not have all the features that are described in this tutorial.  I would appreciate your help.  Carl Baird [email protected]

    The Camera Raw plug-in when hosted in Elements only has three tabs, Basic (toning), Detail (sharpening, noise-reduction) and Camera Calibration (camera profile).
    What version of the Camera Raw plug-in is listed in Help / About Plug-ins / Camera Raw?
    What happens if you are in the PSE  Editor and use File / Open in Camera Raw and go select a raw file from your new camera?

  • Iphoto Editing with Photoshop Elements 9

    I am going into Iphoto, clicking the Edit button and it brings up Photoshop Elements 9.  I make changes, they
    look OK so I save it.  When I get back to IPhoto, it looks like the change has been made.  However when I go
    back later in the day and click on the updated photo and there is a triangle with an exclamation point in the middle.
    This means it can't find the original.  They're all located in Iphoto, what is happening?  Why does it look like the changes
    are make and then I can't find them?

    I do use a Mac, so I don¹t think versions is an issue. I would rather
    pictures edited in PSE, which began life in iPhoto, should always be saved
    back to iPhoto, as they were in Elements 8. That is not happening. Neither
    do I know where to find pictures that PSE has saved.

    >> The save dialog sees an original and asks for permission to change it.
    If you see the save as dialog you don't have your saving files preference set
    correctly. To make versions, you must set it to Save over Original.
    However, note that there is a big ol' bug in the mac version that if you even
    open that particular preference window (even if you don't change anything
    there) PSE will no longer add file extensions when you save. When using PSE as
    external editor it doesn't matter so much, but if you ever save to the desktop
    you will need to add the file extension manually to the saved file.

  • Camera raw conversion for photoshop elements 12 . Camera Nikon D4S

    Hi i have an apple Mac version 10.9 os.  I have Adobe photoshop Elements 12.  I just got a new camera Nikon D4S.  Photoshop Elements will not import my RAW phots (NEF) taken with the new D4S camera.  It gives me a message: Could not complete request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the Camera Raw installed version.  I uploaded a plug in 8.4 to my computer. Then tried to convert the photos in the D4S file folder. It would not convert the photos. The message from the DNG plugin said:  The Source folder does not contain any supported camera raw files.  How can I upload the RAW (NEF) photos taken with the D4S to photoshop elements 12?  Need help as I need to edit all these pictures.
    I am having the same issue uploading the RAW (NEF) D4S photos into Adobe Lightroom 5 as well.
    Thus I can not edit any of these photos.  I am very frustrated and could not find or locate a phone number to contact Adobe Elements for assistance, so if you have a phone number or email address for Adobe Photoshop Elements support or Adobe Lightroom support, please let me know.
    thank you

  • Using iPhoto and editing with Photoshop Elements 4

    Hello
    I am new to Macs after many years using PC and I am struggling to set up my photo workflow. I shoot in RAW format and input into iPhoto from iPhoto I double click on the photo and which opens the RAW editor in Photoshop Elements. After making changes I open the file in Photoshop and then save as a TIFF.
    My problem is I do not see the changed and saved file in iPhoto and if I double click on the photo again it opens back up in the RAW editor not as a TIFF.
    Can any one point me in the right direction to solve this or is what I am trying to do not possible
    Thanks
    Grant

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    What you're trying to do is not possible.
    When you save as a TIFF you create a whole new file that needs to be imported into iPhoto anew. iPhoto will track an edit as long as you stay with the same file - so, edit your jpeg in PSE and use the 'Save' command and the change is reflected in iPhoto. However, you cannot Save RAW files, it's always a Save As... and so the resulting file has to be imported.

  • Batch Editing with Photoshop Elements 4.0

    I have an folder of photos which I would like to resize as a batch with Photoshop Elements 4.0. However, I am at a loss as to how to do it and am missing a step or two in my workflow.
    I would appreciate any specific step by step suggestion that you may have.
    Thanks for your help.
    Vernon

    not for "batch editing"
    You can set PSE as the external editor in the iPhoto preferences. iPhoto has the capability to directly interface with any external editor - simply go to the iPhoto preferences (iPhoto menu ==> preferences ==> General and set the Edit photo option to in external editor - select the desired external editor and you are set - now when you edit photos they are sent to the selected external editor and when you are finished editing you save (not save as) and the edited photo is returned to iPhoto, the original is maintained in iPhoto and the iPhoto database is correctly updated.
    If you want the option of editing in either iPhoto or the external editor after selecting your external editor simply set the edit in back to main window - now when you right click (control Click) on a photo you will get a menu which allows you to select either.

  • Camera raw error in photoshop elements 11

    I have PE11 with a Canon EOS Rebel T5 camera.
    When I try to open the raw image (CR2) in photo editor it get an error:
    "cannot open file because it appears to be from a camera model that is not supported
    by the installed version of camera raw"
    I have CR version 7.4.0.137
    On the Adobe site, I looked up the Camera Raw version I needed.
    The download I got was the Adobe DNG converter
    I can't figure out how to make Photoshop use it.
    Do I have to open and covert thru the DNG then open with Elements?
    I'm trying to open my raw images and save in jpeg, but this seems like a multistep process that I shouldn't have to do.

    The dng converter is a separate application from photoshop elements and converts the files to dng copies, which then pse 11 is able to open.

  • Editing with Photoshop Elements 4.0

    I'm sure the problem and solution are simple, but I'm missing something. Here goes.
    I'm using iPhoto 6.0.2. Just installed and started using Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0. Have been editing about 1,100 photos from a recent trip to Africa, which were imported from my Canon. Wanted more editing tools, so stopped editing with iPhoto and started using PS Elements. So I open a photo from the iPhoto library using PS Elements. Let's say I open a photo from Roll 100, and call it the Monkey Photo. I edit the Monkey Photo in PS Elements, and then save (not save as, but save, using the same Monkey Photo file name). It saves the photo, but not back into Roll 100, but into a new Roll created somehow by the operating system, let's call it Roll 110, found in both the Originals and Modified folders (which seems odd).
    Just like importing directly into iPhoto, when I save from PS Elements, a thumbnail is created, called a Preview. So now I have two thumbnails/previews, one from the original photo and one from the PS edited version.
    So now I go to the Africa album in iPhoto. I double click on the thumbnail on the main screen to open Monkey Photo and I see a big gray blob with a large exclamation point in the middle. I go to the iPhoto library folders, and see that Monkey Photo is no longer in Roll 100, but now in Roll 110. But somehow iPhoto is not recognizing Monkey Photo in Roll 110 (and it's no longer in Roll 100, so as far as iPhoto is concerned, it doesn't exist...but it does).
    So back to iPhoto. I click on View and switch to Roll view. Now I see Roll 100 and Roll 110. I click on Monkey Photo thumbnail in Roll 100, big gray blob, but click on Monkey Photo preview in Roll 110, and now I see Monkey Photo, in all his/her wonderfully edited colors from PS Elements.
    How do I get the thumbnail in the iPhoto Library and the Africa album to work to recognize that Monkey Photo is now in a new roll? I did the rebuild stuff (control-option on opening iPhoto, click on first three choices, wait 30 minutes....nothing happened). I noticed the ColorSync profile was missing, and reinstalled it. Still the big gray blob following thumbnail clicking. I did a war dance. Still nothing.
    What am I missing here? If you tell me that I have to recreate the Library, then the next noise you hear will be iPhoto disc being used as a frisbee and smashing into the neighbor's window.

    Robert:L
    Are you accessing that file from the Finder to open in PSE or are you using iPhoto's preferences to use PSE when you double click a thumbnail? The latter is the way it should be done. Then as long as you do not create a layered or otherwise edited file that required the psd extension nor change the file name, iPhoto will recognize the edit update the thumbnail accordingly. If you access those files from the Finder, open in PSE, edit and save, the thumbnail will not be updated but when you go to the edit mode you'll see the edits.
    Go to iPhoto's preferences and under the General section select PSE under the Open photo with: menu.

  • Organise with iPhoto,  Edit with Photoshop Elements, but avoid destructive editing

    Hi All,
    I prefer to use iPhoto as my photo organiser and for sharing to Facebook and Flickr, but I also prefer to use Photoshop Elements (v11) as my editor. iPhoto is configured to launch PSE for editing and it works fine. My question relates to doing non-destructive saves back into iPhoto. It appears as though I cannot have version control because doing a save overwrites the original file in iPhoto. Although I can chose to save an edited version of my image elsewhere on my MacBook I would prefer to have orginal and saved versions colocated. Is there anyway around this issue or do I have to use PSE Organiser to have version control?
    I like being able to Flag a bunch of photos in iPhoto, go to the Flagged folder to share them, and the way iPhoto displays shared folders uploaded to Facebook and Flickr. PSE Organiser seems a bit convoluted.
    Thanks.

    Take a look at Aperture - with it you can have versions and many people have reported that its editing is robust enough that they seldom if ever use PS or PSE anymore - maybe that would give you the editing power you wnat with the nondestructive editing of Aperture and version control

  • Adobe Camera Raw Plugin for Photoshop Elements 4

    I have downloaded the latest Raw Plugin for Elements 4 successfully and have gone through all the steps except i havent installed Raw Plugin as yet, i would like to know if i have to unzip the files in the downloaded Plugin before i install into Elements 4 or install as is and unzip when it's installed into Elements 4 ? Many thanks Lloyd fro OZ

    In order to use the new plugin in Photoshop Elements 4, you will need to run the 4.0.1 Updater. Support for this version of ACR is the ONLY feature of the 4.0.1 updater.
    Unfortunately, the new ACR plugin came out before we could get the PSE 4.0.1 updater out, so we need to do a workaround for the time being.
    Until the Updater gets posted (which we expect to be on or before May 20), you can use the converter to convert your Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8 files to RAW, then use them in the program.
    The Converter can be found at: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3604
    Sorry for the delay between the ACR posting and the PSE Mac updater posting.

  • Editing with Photoshop Elements on a different computer

    I spend my time in two different countries. Last time I went to the US, I installed my copy of Photoshop Elements on my laptop, as I prefer to use that program for editing. Unfortunately, I left the disc in the US. Now that I am back in Finland, I want to use Photoshop Elements to edit some photos on my iMac that are stored in iPhoto 6. I tried to move the program to my iMac, but it doesn't work. I also can't use the 30-day trial, as I used it before purchasing the program. I don't want to buy another copy, as I only ever use it on one computer at a time.
    Is there a way to edit my photos on my PowerBook, and then import them back into iPhoto 6 on my iMac without having duplicates of the photos on the iMac? I am somewhat confused about the best way to do this. I know I can easily transfer the photos to my PowerBook, but I am unclear on what to do once I have edited them.
    I know there is some kind of option in iPhoto to edit in a separate program. Can that be configured to edit photos in a separate program on a different computer on a network?

    Kristen:
    You idea may be right. Connect your two computers, the one with PSE in Target mode, and then in iPhoto select PSE as the editor of choice and when asked to locate it, navigate to the other computer and select it. It's worth a try.

  • Editing with Photoshop Elements?

    I'm very interested in purchasing Lightroom for managing and performing basic photo developing. I've seen references to using the full-blown Photoshop program for more in-depth image editing, and would like to know if it's possible to use Photoshop Elements instead, as I already have it, and cannot possibly justify spending the amount of money on Photoshop that it costs.
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi guys
    I need some help with editing in between the photoshop elements and lightroom. I have gone through some video help and where I get stuck is that when I go to the drop down menu "Edit in" all the options are greyed out so I cant select them. I think I have done all the settings in preferences in external.
    I would appreciate any info
    Thanks
    Was Photoshop Elements installed prior to installing Lightroom? What version of PSE? What version of Lightroom? What operating system?
    By the way, Lee Perrin, I love your Worcestershire sauce

  • How do i import camera raw files to photoshop elements 9 when it is saying it doesnt recognise files from card.

    how do i import raw files onto elements 9 when there is a message saying it doesnt recognise files

    Hi Steve,
    The Canon 700D requires a camera raw at version 7.4 or later - unfortunately that is not compatible with PSE 9.
    You have three options.
    1) Buy the latest PSE
    2) Use the Canon software (DPP) that came with your camera to convert the CR2 files to TIF files and then you can import the TIF files into PSE and use them.
    3) Use the free Adobe DNG converter to convert the CR2 files to DNG files and then import the DNG files into PSE.

    If you want to know more about DNG, this video may help (you only need to watch the first part up until the DNG converter is explained)

  • Editing with photoshop elements my copy photo colors change

    When I have a photo open in Aperture and I select "edit with Photo Shop Elements", Aperture makes a copy of my photo as it is opening up PSE9.  The copy photo changes.  I can look at the histogram and see they are different.  Why isn't this copy EXACTLY the same?  

    The file format of the newly created file (it becomes a Master) is set in Aperture Prefs.  Is it different than the file format of the existing Master?  Is there any chance the change in file format accounts for the difference you are seeing?
