Can Digital Camera Photos in PS Elements be Used in Pre Elements?

I have digital photos from my camera saved in my PS Elements program. I want to convert them to a slide show DVD for viewing on a television. I am entirley new to Pre Elements but as I read and look at the tutorials I note they only talk about movie videos which can indeed be converted to DVD's.for television viewing. Can I assume that I can use a digital photo in place of a video strip and follow the directions given in Pre Elements for video strips to accomplish my objective? Or, am I tryng to do somethng Pre Elements is not designed for?
I am using Pre Elements 4 with Photoshop Elements 6.0 on a Vista system. I would greatly appreciate any guidance provided.

In Photoshop Elements 6 how did you save your stills, as .jpeg or .psd? I will not get into a discussion on that now, but the party line is each Save As for .jpeg creates degradation which you avoid by using the still saved as .psd (flattened when ready for use).
Then you need to plan your strategy...
create your slideshow in Photoshop Elements 6 (can include video there, but cannot edit the video there), output it to Premiere Elements 4, using the Output option = Send to Premiere Elements. Once the slideshow is in Premiere Elements 4, you can right click the transfer on the Timeline and select Break Apart Slideshow to give you more editing opportunities. After Edit, you can create an AutoPlay DVD-VIDEO or a DVD-VIDEO with menus.
Main thing to remember is that Photoshop Elements is the photo editor and Premiere Elements is the video editor. I do recommend use of the Timeline in Premiere Elements 4 because I feel it gives you more control since you can see what you are doing better.
You do not have to use Photoshop Elements 6, except for editing your photos. You can use Premiere Elements 4 to create the presentation (stills and videos) as well as generate the DVD-VIDEO. There are always discussions on which way to go. There are some user friendly features of Photoshop Elements (pans & zooms, fit audio to slides...) that push some people that way first. But, Premiere Element does allow you the pans or zooms by presets or by keyframing.
Whatever you do, do not get caught in the oversized photo trap. Please read Steve Grisetti classic FAQ about Photo Resolution:

I would suggest the you learn the basics of Photoshop Elements 6 Premiere Elements 4 first by going through the program's Help PDF Getting Started. Once you are comfortable about that, do some mini project before attempting the grand project. And, if you run into problems doing your mini runs, just ask questions. Just about everyone has been there and done that.
I will be looking forward to your progress.

  • How do i remove the exif metadata from my jpg file produced with a digital camera photo?

    How do i remove the exif metadata from my jpg file produced with a digital camera photo?

    The excellent and free utility Irfanview has the option to remove the EXIF data.
    Simply open and the file and do a Save, or Save As with the original name.
    Surprisingly, the default is to not keep the original EXIF data.

  • Can digital camera movies (MPEGs) be downloaded to and played on Apple TV?

    Can digital camera movies (MPEGs) be downloaded to and played on Apple TV? I know that it can play downloaded "real" movies, but what about movies made on digital cameras

    Some cameras will record in mpeg4, however they may have unsupported audio formats or otherwise not fit the specifications required for the tv. In essence some cameras may produce video that will play directly on the tv.
    If your files are mpeg4 and won't play, itunes will most likely convert them to the correct format (advanced/convert for Apple TV), if they are mpeg1, mpegstreamclip will convert them for you. If your files are mpeg2, mpegstreamclip will still do the job but you will need to install the Quicktime mpeg2 playback component ($20)

  • Can I upload digital camera photos to my ipad

    I Have an Olympus OMD E M5 can I upload my photos to my iPad to use photoshop ?

    You have to connect to your computer to upgrade to iOS 5. However, after it's installed you will be able to install the next update wirelessly (i.e., no computer connection).

  • No Item Info (resolution) for Digital Camera photos?

    Hi,
    Just imported some photos off my Canon digital camera into my iMac using Image Capture. Looking at at all the Icons for the photos in Finder, I've noticed none of them have their resolution written below them, even though I've got "Show Item Info" ticked.
    If someone can explain to me why this, I'd like to know. Any pictures I download from the Internet automatically have their resolution written below them in Finder. But for photos that've come from my own camera, they don't.

    The only time I see this is when the images are in a folder that is not indexed by Spotlight. Thus, I have a folder on a drive that has Spotlight disabled for that drive, and the same folder on my startup drive. The pixel dimensions appear when I open the folder my startup drive, they do NOT appear when I open the folder on the other drive. If the folder the pix are in is excluded from Spotlight search you won't see the dimensions displayed in the Finder window. I would guess that the folder the downloaded items are in is indexed, the one from the camera is not.

  • How can "Digital Camera RAW Compatibility" 4.06 be removed so that 4.05 can be installed first?

    App Store currently shows "Digital Camera RAW Compatibility" 4.05 as an update.  When attempting to update the following dialog box appears stating "An error has occured - The operation couldn't be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -1012.)(-1012)
    After searching found that the pkg files can be installed, However when trying to install 4.05 from a pkg file get the following dialog.
    Any ideas?
    Is it possible to erase 4.06, then install both 4.05 & 4.06?
    many thanks
    John

    after trying to install 4.05 via a pkg get a dialog stating "Alert - A newer version of Digital Camera RAW support is already installe on your system"...  Hence the question about removing 4.06.
    Is there a version of the Digital Camera RAW that contains all updates, like a combo?

  • Can digital cam serve webcam purpose?

    hello thats my question
    i have digital canon camera, i want to now is it posible to use it as web cam .And the same with mini DV camcorders.
    cause i saw in the mac shop they had conected digital camcorder to mac ,can i do the same on macbook?

    Most MiniDV cameras will serve as a webcam via USB or Firewire connection. The hardware is Mac compatible. This may also be an option with some digital camera, though you'd need to check the specs of the digital camera first to see if it offers the feature. If it offers it, chances are it will work on the mac as well since it really comes down to USB or FW functionality. It's almost a given that it will work with mini-DV, but digital cameras will be model specific.
    Best advice is to check the manuals of the camcorder or camera to ensure functionality and compatibility. But yes, in theory it should work.

  • How can I select multiple people when filtering media using Photoshop Premier Elements Organizer 11?

    I noticed that in using Photoshop Premier Elements Organizer V10, I was able to select more than a single person when filtering media. For example, I may want to find all of my photos that have me with my cousin, John as well as my friend Norm in them.   With Photoshop Priemier Elements Organizer 11, I can only filter on a single person or filter on a group of individuals.  Using a group does not always match the specific filter that I am looking for.  Was this an oversight in the new version?
    (By the way, this feature is also missing with "Places" as well...  For example, I would like to be able to select Austria, Switzerland, and Germany media when adding an Event for my "Trip to the Alps".  I can only select one country at a time.)
    Any suggestions?  Can we get this feature back?

    Have you opened up the Filter menu, which opens along the top of the Organizer's Media Browser?
    With it, you simply check the filters you want to apply, and the Media Browser will show you all media clips to which those filters applies.

  • Can I import photos from iPad to Mac using WiFi?

    I know I can import photos from the iPad to the Mac using the USB cable, and importing them into iPhoto.  But is it possible to do this without plugging in the iPad - i.e. with WiFi?  I couldn't find a way to make it work.
    Better still, would it be possible to automatically 'sync' photos taken on the iPad to the Mac using iCloud, without also having photos from the Mac going back to the iPad?  My iPhoto archive is now quite large, and I don't want it on the iPad.
    Or are there any other approaches?
    I really want to be able to use the iPad to regularly "empty" my camera while travelling, and have the iPad transfer the pictures to my main photo archive (iPhoto on the Mac) whenever it gets a chance.  If this can happen automatically, that is best.  Manually initiating it via WiFi is next best.  Mnually initiating it via a USB cable is third best - still not difficult, but more steps.

    Can anybody confirm this one way or the other?
    If you have 800 photos on the iPad in the Photo Stream, those 800 photos will appear in the Photo Stream in iPhoto. However, if you have 7000 photos in albums in iPhoto, they will not appear in the Photo Stream on the iPad unless you place the photos into the Photo Stream. Photo Stream is its own album in iPhoto and your already imported photos in iPhoto will not appear in there unless you add them to the photo stream.
    Look at one of the WiFi photo transfer apps such as WiFi Transfer App. You can send the iPad photos to your Mac using Safari on the Mac and then Imprt them to iPhoto as you see fit. You cannot send the photos directly into iPhoto with these apps.

  • Best way to collect photos from family members for use in Photoshop Elements Organizer 13?

    I am a long time Photoshop Elements & Premiere Elements user. My biggest problem in producing my annual Christmas video has been collecting photos and videos from remote family members. Most are exclusively taking photos and videos on their smartphones (but I'll take wheat I can get).
    What toolset or service will offer my family members the easiest way for them to securely share those assets with me so that I can ingest them into Element Organizer 13?
    I've been told that Adobe now has apps for smartphones to aid in this process, but I have yet to track that down.
    I've recommended my family members use dropbox or other comparable services, but it seems to perplex them. More often than not, I wind up receiving them as attachment via email or not at all. I'd LOVE to improve their ease of use and am will to pay to deliver an easy and pleasant experience for them.
    Thoughts?
    Thanks in advance.

    What about Google Drive? And just share the folder with the family members.

  • How can you develop photo galleries with multiple pages using the web module?

    Going through the web module I can see there are many options for developing a web page with a single collection of photos.  How can you develop a web site with multiple pages containing different categories of photos using the Lightroom web module?

  • Can imac import photos from iphone 6 without using usb?

    i have a mid-2010 imac running latest yosemite and an iphone 6 with ios 8.2.
    i'd like to transfer photos to the computer without connecting the usb cable.  can it be done?  seems bluetooth or airdrop should be the answer, but the devices seem reluctant to work together.

    Yes, it can be done with My Photo Stream.
    For this to happen you need to have iOS 8 on the iPhone and have
    iCloud Photo Library disabled. (Important).
    My Photo Stream enabled.
    iCloud Photo Sharing enabled.
    On your Mac the iPhoto iCloud preferences should be set to as shown in the following screenshot:
    The iPhone must be connected to the internet via WiFi. The Mac can be either WiFi or ethernet.  As each photo is taken by the iPhone it will be added to the My Photo Stream and imported into the Event for that month.

  • Can I delete photos from iPhoto that were used in an iMovie Project?

    I made an iMovie Project with a lot of photos from iPhoto. I don't want some of the photos anymore. I would like to delete them from iPhoto but I am afraid it might affect the iMovie Project. Does any body know?

    If you've finished the iMovie project and exported it to other media or file format, then yes, you can delete the files from iPhoto.
    If the iMovie project isn't finished you should leave things alone.

  • Can I retrieve photos burned onto DVD (I used iDVD)?

    I lost my hard drive last week and am in the process of rebuilding my photo gallery. In Decemeber, I burned a DVD with all of my desired photos from 2012 using iDVD. In addition to the videos and slideshows that I included in the main menu, I made sure to burn the actual photos to the DVD as well. Except now, I don't know how to retrieve the photos from the DVD to re-import into iPhoto. Any suggestions?
