Drag and Drop in Organizer

I am new to Premiere and am trying to add media to an existing project. It appears that I should be able to do that from the Organizer. From what I have been reading I should be able to just drag and drop media within organizer to the premiere project. However when I drag any media over top of any project a circle with a cross through it comes up indicating that I can't. Is this not possible from within the Organizer?

You are probably dropping the media at wrong place in PrE. You need to drag the media from Organizer into the Media(Project->Media) Panel of PrE first.
Then you can use the media in PrE.
Other way is right click your media in Organizer and select 'Edit with Premiere Elements', this will import the media in PrE and also add it to the last of the timeline.

Why can't i drag and drop from organizer to editor PSE13?

I'm working on a layout in the Editor and I'm no longer able to drag a picture from the organizer into the editor. It worked prior to this but suddenly stopped. I've tried resetting Preferences by holding down Alt, Ctrl, Shift while opening the Editor and that didn't fix the problem. It's really annoying and I can't think of anything else to try.

Yes! This is really annoying. I don't know why they couldn't keep the functionality from the old version. The more I use the new iTunes the less I like it.

Organizer Drag and Drop Issue

In PSE4 I am in Folder Location view working in Folder A. I drag and drop a few files to Folder B. Unfortunately now PSE puts me in Folder B. "I" didn't want to go to Folder B, I just wanted to put some files there. Other programs don't change the focus to the new folder. How can I get PSE4 not to do that?
Thanks for any help.
Dale

Colin is right, but I have also been very frustrated by the behavior you mention, Michael. Thanks for that tip.
Here is the weirdest thing. I am in Folder Location view and I have selected Folder 20070501 in the lefthand pane. On the right hand pane a band shows with that name followed by only one of the 97 pictures in the folder. Then comes a band by the name of the next directory and instead of showing any of the pictures actually in that directory, it shows a couple of pictures that are actually in the 2007501 directory. And so on it continues. Finally, the next directory in order is listed followed by the pictures actually in the 20070501 directory. It is nothing short of bizarre.
HOWEVER, when I did what you suggested, Michael, everything was as it should be when I came back. So this seems to be just another variation of what you mentioned.
Colin, you said you don't use Folder View much. Granted you can have pictures located anywhere and organize them with PSE4 but I've found for when I'm in Win Explorer and need to see something that having them organized by folders is helpful for me. Have either of you found a process for managing pictures that works well for you, because I'm still looking for the best way to do it including when to remove pictures from my hard drive.

Photoshop Elements Organizer 11 - Drag and Drop to Marked Faces

Hello,
I have recently upgraded from PSE 10 to 11. In 10 I used to drag People tags onto autodetected faces which would server to add the tag as well label the mark of the face (2 birds with one stone). In 11 when I attempt to drag and drop a People tag onto a marked face, the square and the "Who is this" disapears. The only way I can find to actually mark the face is by actually typing the name for each person. Definitely a more painful way of doing it versus drag and drop. Did Adobe drop this feature or is this a bug I can expect to be fixed in an upcoming update? Or is this problem that is just local to my machine?
Thanks! Rob

That is pretty disappointing! Regardless of a revamp or not, marching into a NEW version should NOT mean reduced functionality! I didn’t use the facial recognition in 10 because most of the time it got it wrong! Also, for my people tags I like to tag (mark faces) with tags of “Family” and “Friends”. More often than not this represents the bulk of my people tagging. So now I actually have to type it in or I have to try to use Add People and hope it gets it right more than in version 10. That is definitely a slower workflow!
Sigh. OK. My next question is that it looks like Add people facial recognition is not working at all. It is finding faces but it is not suggesting names at all, even after doing a number to try to teach it. I will start up a second thread to ask that question.
Beyond this does anyone have any ideas on how to save a time on People tagging? This represents the bulk of the time I spend in Organizer so making this process work faster is really important to me.

Drag and Drop (re-order) Thumbnails in Organizer

I am using Photoshop Elements version 5.0.2
I would like to re-order pictures in an order that will make sense for me in my business. I suppose I can go through each pix and change the time on them, so I can then sort by time stamp.
Is there an easier way to do this? I was hopeful that I could drag and drop them in Thumbnail view - but I cannot.
Thank you,
Jamie

>Is there anyway to delete the photos in the main well, without losing them from my collection?
As I understand the design, the main well is intended to be all the photos that you are managing with Photoshop Elements.
Collections are used to display a specific group of those photos in your chosen sequence for any given activity.
I suspect that since you are using a consumer product such as Photoshop Elements for your business purpose, you may need to make some compromises like having a default (the main photo well) display sequence which you see first when starting PSE that is not what you would choose.
This is not bad if PSE does what you want - just additional steps to switch to the Collection view and also to maintain (drag and drop) the sequencing of the collection when you add additional photo files to a Collection.

Drag and drop not working in PE 12, MacOS 10.7.5 (Lion)

I "copied" the icon for the Photoshop Elements 12 Editor to the dock. When I drag and drop a photo icon (example, JPG or NEF) to the Elements Editor icon in the dock, nothing happens -- Elements does not open. The photo icon just "pops" back to the folder I was dragging it from. Every previous version of Elements that I've used behaved like any other Mac application and opened the photo (with an NEF file, the photo opened properly in ACR). Other Mac applications like Preview open a file just fine when it I drag and drop the file on the application icon.
I tried the same experiment with both the Editor and Organizer icons in my Applications folder and got the same results (the application did not open the file).
I skimmed through the PE Preferences to see if there was some kind of new preference for "drag and drop" behavior but didn't find anything.
So, what am I missing? How can I get PE 12 to open a file when I drag and drop a photo icon onto the Editor (or if I really have to, the Organizer) icon?

Drag & drop works fine for me on 10.9
You have possibly copied the wrong icon, The application is located in Support Files.
Applications >> Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 >> Support Files
Locate Photoshop Elements 12 Editor inside the Support Files Folder.

PSE 11 editor has stopped importing from scanner, no longer permits drag and drop, will not permit cropping, and other bizarre issues

Windows 8.1, PSE 11
I am having a number of issues including loss of import functionality from scanner, I can't drag and drop photos into the editor any more as well, or at least not after the first one. The crop function stops working after the first couple of photos. Then some freezing. A little added crashing. A plethora of other bizarre issues as well. This just stated happening a couple of days ago.
What I have tried:
Uninstall/Install.
Deleted preferences both before opening Editor (crontrol-alt-delete) and after opening it.
Kindly advise. Thanks!

Final Update: ...god willing...
OK! Check it, like I said in previous posts I seemed to have narrowed it down to specific mp3s not converting and playing in their native sample rate which if paired with another sample would give you the "audio midi sync" error and basically screw up your clock! It appears mp3 files converting to mp3 using iTunes would not convert to the correct sample rate if set to something other than 44 in logic and cause this. A tad peculiar Apple iTunes won't work with Apple Logic. I was able to confirm this on two mac's via my friend in Florida. He's running Tiger and tried the same experiment and Booya! Mickey Mouse! It appears this insane week long adventure has came to an end (...god willing) with a super specific unlucky shot in the dark on my part finally revealed to be an perfectly normal function of Logic (obviously one i'm not fond of..) As far as the errors / crashes / system overloads / kernal panics I think I can sort those out to the mackie onyx satellite not being a good choice and trying to add and remove firewire devices in the middle of the sample rate mayhem. Wow! all I can say is, I'm glad it's over
Wish me a lot of luck in the future.. I'm sure i'll need it!

Really stupid that you can't drag and drop photos from Finder into Events

There is no way in iPhoto to do what I want and need to to, to wit, drag and drop photos from the Finder into existing iPhoto Events.
It really doesn't make sense that you can't do this. First of all, calling these groups Events to begin with is not smart; in my case, a group of photos in a folder on the Finder is rarely all from one photo session or so-called "event"--- instead of Events they should just be called Groups or something, and you should be able to drop individual photos into them. I have thousands of family photos that were accumulated on my hard drives over the years, some scanned in from film negatives, slides, or prints, others from digital cameras, and when I have changed Macs and hard drives over the years, every time a folder of photos was moved from an old hard drive to a new one, or regrouped into various folders, the photos seem to have acquired new dates of origin, etc.
Anyway, what I mean is, if Events are all time based, then somebody like me who has thousands of photos with all sorts of dates of origin, mostly unrelated to the date that the photo was actually shot, is screwed. I have old photos with new dates of origin and other mismatches between photos and the dates when they were actually shot or scanned.
My gripe is, again, that when I find photos on my hard drives that belong in certain iPhoto Events that have already been created, I cannot just drag these photos from the Finder and drop them into the Events they belong in. Instead, the stupid program creates a new Event from each photo I try to drop into an existing Event. That means I have to chase these new photos all over the place inside of iPhoto, trying to figure out where each new photo (now called an "Event") has ended up, so that I can drag and merge it into the Event I wanted it to go into in the first place. A real pain in the neck. It simply takes too long to do this for each photo added.
What this means is that iPhoto is not going to be a practical way to organize for a person like me until Apple makes it possible to simply drop any photo from the Finder into an existing Event. There should be an option to allow that. I'm really surprised there is not one. <edited out by Hosts>
Tom

Tom, iPhoto will not overwrite photos with the same name. I have plenty of photos with the same name in the same event. Each photo most likely has an internal handler that manages the photo, and not just the name of the file.
I agree with you that this is sub-optimal, and (IMO) I think what happened is iPhoto 6 had rolls, and they came up with a really cool interface for mousing over those rolls, and decided it was more consumer friendly (and because film is a thing of the past) to call them events, rather than rolls. I think it was worth a shot, but they just slightly missed.
Right now in iPhoto08, any serious organization is done in folders and albums. Personally, I think they need to combine the two concepts -- the great "mouse over" view of events with the organization abilities of folders and albums. I'd like an albums view where I can mouse over the albums. Actually, Aperture 2's interface for organization is more functional than iPhoto, so I am hoping some of that benefit creeps into the next iPhoto release.
What I do is: I use events for high level grouping (like Winter 2007) and I organize folders and albums to break that down further ("trip to Montreal" "Christmas" etc.). But I do it backwards. I fill albums first, then I organize events.
When I drag in pictures to iPhoto, first I make the target album in iPhoto that I want to populate, then I drag the photo directly to that album (not to events). iPhoto automatically puts the photo into the album I created and also into a new event. Later, I go into events, right-click on this new event to "open event in separate window" then I move around the events view, to drop in the pictures from the "import" event I just created. If I move all the pictures into other events, iPhoto automatically deletes the event I just emptied. You could skip the event organization all together if you wanted to, but you'd lose the cool mouse-over feature, which can be handy.
One nice thing about having events AND albums is you can have the photo just once in iPhoto, in an event, but then have the photo appear in as many albums as you want (as well as projects and web galleries) all while only having one photo on your hard drive. So, there are benefits to events, but I think iPhoto is missing just a couple little bits of organizational ability to make it perfect. (and yes, I've submitted this all to Apple as feature requests)
Just in case you don't know -- events don't have any hierarchy. That is, you can't nest events. But you can have folders with subfolders, and any folder can contain albums. Albums cannot have sub-albums, and folders don't hold photos. Only albums hold photos, and folders (or sub-folders) hold albums. Try create some folders and albums and you'll get the hang of it. One other issue that Apple needs to address. When you create a new folder or album, it doesn't put it right where you want it, but rather puts it at the bottom of the list, so you have to drag it up to where you want it. Try it out, and you'll see what I mean, then submit it as a feature request to improve that.
I agree it's not perfect, but it's not too bad once you get used to it. And the benefits of working with the rest of the features of iPhoto is worth it. I'm just really hoping they do a few tweaks on the next release. They are near greatness here. They could just use a little nudge on the last bits. (in my opinion of course. Others may disagree, but I've talked to enough people who have the same issues you are having to know we are not alone on this).

I just downloaded the new version of iTunes 10 and now it won't let me drag and drop any files from my computer.

I just downloaded the new version of iTunes 10 and now it won't let me drag and drop any files from my computer into my iTunes. It lets me play the song from the folder in my computer and then it opens with iTunes and plays the song all the way through, but then if I try to play it again, it says the file cannot be located. So then I go to locate and go to the folder and all that and select it and nothing happens.

Not sure whether for instance you initially had a Yahoo optimised version of Firefox, and have now overwritten it with an official Mozilla version. Although the Mozilla version should NOT add unwanted features, but the Yahoo version may well do.
If you merely need to find the Yahoo emails page quickly just add it as a bookmark or as a bookmark on the Bookmarks toolbar and make sure that is visible.
Clicking the star icon on the location bar whilst looking at your emails will bookmark the page.

I do not use Yahoo myself,and am not sure what add-ons are available. You could search yourself using
* FirefoxButton -> add-ons

SharePoint Online Drag and Drop to Quick Launch Links

Hello,
We're using a SharePoint document library to store invoices and an approval workflow to manage the approvals for payment. Once an invoice is approved and paid, they move the invoice into a Paid subfolder. Because there are a lot of invoices, the view
stretches across multiple pages. When they're not on the first page of the invoice list, they can't use the drag and drop functionality to move the invoice into the Paid folder because the Paid folder only shows up on the first page of the list.
I would like to be able to add a link to the Paid folder to the links on the left side of the window. I can add the link, and it works in that if you click the link it takes you to
Shared Documents\Paid. But if you try and drag a document to that link, it wants to place it in the root Shared Documents, giving you an error message that the file already exists in that location.
How can I create a quick link to a subfolder of Shared Documents that also allows drag and drop functionality?
Thanks,
Adam

Hi Adam, here are a few solutions:
1. Use "Open with Explorer."
2. Use the Content Organizer to automatically move the documents.
3. Create a workflow to automatically move the documents.
4. Create another view or library on the same page with the Paid folder in it.
5. DON'T USE FOLDERS!
(sorry, they're a big pet peeve of mine because of all the problems they create. They're also completely unnecessary with only one exception.)

Drag and Drop from LR to other applications

There was a thread going on D&D from LR to explorer.
The other appliation problem I have is the apparent inability to drag and drop from lightroom into a file transfer window (e.g., file upload with SmugMug).
The quick collection is an awesome way to organize a storyline of images from a shoot, select only the images needed, and prepare a shoot for upload. However, short of exporting to a folder first, is there a way to just drag and drop the file set from a LR view (filmstrip or thumbs) to another app? This would just be providing file handles, and I would be satisfied if it only grabbed the original images (pre-"develop").
Anyone have any luck with this?
-- Jeff

No. And not likely anytime soon. Putting a Pointer/alias to SmugMug (if it is an uploader client app, not familiar with it) in the Export Actions Folder for Post Processing from Export is the best you can do at the monemt. To get LR rdits out of LR you have to Export. D&D just isn't going to do that for you.

Can't Drag and Drop in iMovie '11

I just started using this software, and for some reason it won't let me drag and drop video files to my project. I started with flv, then mov, and even mp4. None of them would work. I could import mp4 the long way by going through the menus, but I would much rather drag and drop. has anyone else had this issue?

Hey ya'll I just figured this out! I had scanned a bunch of photos for a wedding video. I then cropped them and changed the resolution in Photoshop and saved them all. When I went to save them, there was a box checked in Photoshop that said something like "Make photo available in Photoshop Organizer" For some reason when that box is checked, the file DOES NOT save with a .JPEG extension. So when I was naming a file "57" and choosing the "save as JPEG" option, it was saving as a JPEG but wasn't CALLED "57.jpeg" That's why I couldn't drop and drag them.
I found out by opening the properties boxes of a photo I could drag and a photo I couldn't drag and going through all the details. SO FRUSTRATING but I hope this helps someone else!!! Good Luck!!!

Can't drag and drop bookmarks in FF12

I just upgraded to FF 12.0, and I find that I'm unable to drag and drop bookmarks in the "Show All Bookmarks" window. I used to be able to organize my bookmarks that way, order them, put in folders, etc. I can delete bookmarks, and I can even "copy" and "paste" them to move them around, but I can't drag and drop them anymore.
When I go back to FF11, which I had archived, it works fine.
iMac 10.6.8

it's the torbutton extension on its own that causes the issue with firefox versions 12 upwards - i also tried it with a fresh test profile. the torbutton extension is no longer maintained by its developers - they recommend a switch to the tor browser bundle, see [https://www.torproject.org/torbutton/].

File Drag and Drop in Portfolio

Is there any way to enable scrolling when dragging and dropping files into a folder that was created inside a Portfolio in the List View? When converting multiple files from folders, users want to maintain the organization of the files in the same folder hierarchy within a Porfolio. If dozens of files are converted, you cannot select a few files and drag them into a folder that is not in the view. Converting the folders individually is inefficient.

Hello,
I think you posted this question in the wrong forum: this is one of the Captivate forums and I do not see a relation to it, but can be wrong.

Can I drag and drop single photos into Events?

Hi guys. I've very recently ordered a new Mac that will have iLife 08 on it. Before I get started with it I've got a question about Events. I've been using iPhoto for the last several years, organizing my photos into albums. I've cleaned up my images to around 1,000 photos, and I plan to only use events for organization. (I don't want to use Events AND albums, don't see the point, I'm going to try using ONLY Events.) But I've got a few scenerios that I'd like to throw by you all, to see if they would work, as I'm hoping that they will...
I don't shoot photos into pre-defined "Events", I shoot photos by what I feel like shooting. "Hey, my dog is doing something funny" - There's 3 pictures, or "Wow that's a big spider!" - 1 picture, or "My little neice is doing something cute" - There's 4 pictures. I do not want 450 events, each containing 1 - 5 pictures.
Can I drag and drop single pictures into different events? For example, have an Event called "Friends" with pictures of my friends in it, that I put there? Or an event called "Concerts" with photos taken throughout the years?
I hope I've made it clear what I'm looking to get out of Events!
Thanks in advance for any help.

Exactly - I think he will want to matain his existing structure -- people are making too much of the name change from rolls to events.
I have events with one photo and events with as many as 2000 photos -- I like this better than rolls but albums, folders and keywords are still the key to granular organization - events are ust the library to hold my photos
To me it is a small step forward that makes organization much easier (and it was not that hard before)
Larry Nebel
PS - now if I could just get all of my edits to save - where are TD and OT to solve that one for me?
