Elements 12 without Photomerge Panorama on MAC?

After installing Elements 12 on the MAC (10.8.5) the menu for Photomerge Panorama is greyed out, so Photomerge Panorama cannot be started. Any other Photomerge function is available and can be used.
Is the panorama one of the missing function on MACs?
Import and Exoirt from the File menu are also greyed out.
Thanks in advance.

Switch to Expert Mode.
Cheers,
Neale

Elements 12 photomerge-Panorama

When selecting Photomerge Panorama in Elements 12, program crashes with error message "editor 12 has stopped working".
Was working fine until last week then suddenly this started happening every time I attempt to run Panorama. Other Photomerge functions appear to be working okay, just a problem with Panorama.
Using Dell 8700 system running windows 8.1 in 64 bit mode. Have 24GB memory and lot of empty disc space.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Why is Adobe continuing to ignore the many forum threads inquiring about this same problem? IMO, this issue continuing year-after-year represents irresponsible decision-making on the part of their Change Control Board / maintenance management, for such a fundamental operation as photo-stitching.
In particular, when the same two images can be merged successfully using any of a number of separate photo-stitch apps from other vendors, yet crashes Adobe Photoshop, then ipso facto, where do YOU think the blame lies?
In my opinion as a software programmer, an attempt to perform such a basic operation as merging two images, regardless of their size, should NOT cause a frickin' crash. Programmatically, this speaks to (a) poor memory management, and (b) terrible error-detection/handling/reporting.
This problem continues with the latest OS updates, the latest driver updates, the latest Adobe Photoshop updates/versions ... Crashing Adobe Photoshop is an unacceptable outcome for such a fundamental operation, even if one is working with photos that are truly of larger-than-normal size. It's COMPLETELY inexcusable when the images in question are of standard sizes produced by current-day camera technology. The workaround of resizing the original photos is an unacceptable option for someone who is attempting to maximize a print size without resolution loss.

Why in Photoshop Elements 12 is Photomerge Panorama grayed out? How do I activate it?

You need to be in Expert mode. Ciick the word Expert at the top of the PSE window.

Photoshop Elements 7 Photomerge Panorama won't run

Opened case #0180993666 on 06/14/09, no reply from Adobe to date.

Others have reported that problem as well. The only thing I've seen reported that may help is to do an uninstall/reinstall in what Adobe calls "simplified mode" with anti-virus and other services disabled, running as administrator (not just in an account with administrator priviliges), and manually removing all traces of PSE not removed by the uninstaller before reinstalling. See this FAQ for details on how to do that:

Elements 8 - Mac OS10.6 Photomerge Panorama Problem

When I click on the File>New>Photomerge Panorama an error message "JavaScript code was missing" appears. And Photomerge Panorama will not open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled PSE8 but the problem persists.

No. I did ask Adobe Support and they said it was a problem with the operating system. Which to me is a dead end. Hopefully somebody out there can figure out what and where the JavaScript file Elements is looking for and tell the rest of us.
Sorry for not having an answer. Good luck on your quest.

Interactive Layout mode no longer available in Photomerge Panorama in PSE for Mac - any workarounds?

Hello, after having purchased a download of Elements 12 for Mac, I found out that the Interactive Layout mode in Photomerge Panorama was no longer available (it was available in earlier versions, such as Elements 11). Is Adobe able to exchange my version 12 for version 11, or is there some other way I can gain access to Interactive Layout mode? I have found that the Auto layout mode often results in a message that it cannot align the images to create a panorama. Thank you.

In photoshop cs6 give this a try:
1. Go to File>Scripts>Load Files into Stack, browse and load the pictures for the pano with the Attempt to Align and Create Smart Object unchecked
2. Increase the canvas size of the document with the Crop Tool holding down the Alt key and dragging
    one of the crop corners out until you think the canvas is big enough to arrange your documents for the pano.
3. Align the layers manually in the document window with the Move Tool as good as you can.
   (you can lower the layer opacxity so you can see the alignment better, but don't forget to put all the layers back to 100% opacity)
4. Select all the layers in the layers panel
    (Select>All Layers)
5. Go to Edit>Auto-Blend Layers and use Blend Method>Panorama and Seamless Tones and Colors
6. After the blending it's possible you might see some whats looks like seams, so press Shift+Alt+Ctrl+E to make a merged copy on a new layer and hopefully that'll
    get rid of the seams.
I'll make another post with directions for putting the plugin into photoshop cs6, since you probably don't want to install pse 11 just to get a plugin when
photoshop cs6 is so much more capable than elements, for panoramas anyway.

Photomerge Panorama crashes in PS Elements 10

I've finally found some time to try some panoramas using Elements 10 and it crashes every time I select Photomerge Panorama. I'm using Windows 8.1 on a fast laptop with updated drives and D drive as the selected scratch drive. A bit of an internet search has revealed this to be a common problem without a posted fix. I would have figured a patch or a bug fix would have been released by now. I've tried finding a contact number to discuss this matter with Adobe but keep getting routed to this forum for assistance. I'm frustrated that I've been sold a program that very clearly doesn't deliver what it claims to. Am I expected to now purchase a new edition of Elements in the hope that the Pano feature will work or does someone have a better solution?

I have the same problem; like you, even with completely updated drivers.

Does anyone else have problems with getting Photomerge Panorama to open in Elements 13?

Why is Adobe continuing to ignore the many forum threads inquiring about this same problem? IMO, this issue continuing year-after-year (and version after version) represents irresponsible decision-making on the part of their Change Control Board / maintenance management, for such a fundamental operation as photo-stitching.

By several accounts in those forum threads, this problem continues with the latest OS updates, the latest driver updates, the latest Adobe Photoshop updates/versions, more-than-adequate RAM, more-than-adequate disk space, etc., etc., etc. ...

Photomerge panorama not working in elements 11

Hi:
I cannot make the photomerge panorama function work in elements 11. It simply
generates the standard Window 7 error message and when it can't find a solution
the program closes. In previous versions ( 9 and 10) it always worked and never
caused a problem.
Attempting to rebuild the preferences file as suggested for a similar problem affecting
earlier versions was also done but to no avail. Its a function I use quite frequently so
until it is resolved I will keep using version 10.
Anyone have a solution for this anomaly??
Michael

The error message pops up right away and is generated by Windows not PSE. The java script that generates the familiar combo box that gives you the various panorama options for merging doesn't even have a chance to get started. The scripting support plugin is in Photoshop Elements 11>Required>Plug-Ins>Automate. This location is a change from the previous versions.
Thank you
Michael

The 'photomerge panorama' title on Photoshop Elements 11 is 'grayed out'. How can I fix it?

ELHID labs,
As your question applies to Photoshop Elements, I will Move your post there. Your links and any e-mail subscriptions will follow perfectly.
Also, I think that Steve G. and Neale have given you some great direction to getting your Panorama "stitching" working for you.
Good luck,

How to run photomerge panorama in ps elements 10

When starting photomerge-panorama in ps elements 10 the program shuts down itself with the notification that is does not work anymore. All other photomerge functions however are working fine.
What to do?

Hi,
The version of Camera Raw that you reported should support the S100 CR2 images.
If you load the editor, go to the File menu and select Open, then point to the file, are you saying that it displays the error message?
Have you tried opening the file with Canon's Zoombrowser?
Which operating system are you running on?
Brian

Photomerge panorama in elements 7 problem, please help

Hello, I am having difficulty making a photomerge panorama with elements 7. Here is how I am going about it:
I have 3 files saved as jpegs I want to stitch. I open a file from its location in My Pictures, minimize it, then do the same for the next two pictures. I do this in order of left picture, center picture, right picture. Using the small pane at the bottom of the elements window, I hold down ctrl and click each of the three open pics to select them. Then I go to file and select new, photomerge panorama. A window pops up for making a new photomerge panorama, but nothing pops up staggered behind it--no new empty file screen or winows ocntaining my open files as I have seen in the tutorials). I leave it on auto and click add open files. All three titles show up in the window. Then I click OK. Nothing happens. There is no new file window for it to create a panorama in. I do not get an error messae. Just nothing as if I made no command. Can anyone tell me how to correct what I am doing to make it work?
Thank you

Juergen_d- thank you.
All I needed to do was stop minimizing the photos to the bin. When I left them all open on the elements desktop, it worked seemlessly. Amazing- thank you!
