Elements 7... printing via online photo service

I'm not sure if this is a hardware or software issue, but I decided to start here.
I have a Core 2 duo processor (2.67Mgz), a nVidia 7950GT video card, Vista home premium 32 bit (fully updated), and about 3.3 gig of useable ram. I have a Samsumg SyncMaster 2693HM monitor and an HP Photosmart 7180 multifunction printer. I use a Nikon D90 in sRGB mode.
My issue is that when I upload pictures to a local regional pharmacy's third party photo printing service, they come out darker, with less vivid colors than when I print them on my printer.
When I bought Photoshop/Premiere Elements 7 last summer I decided to callibrate my monitor. I used the software that came with the monitor: Natural Color Pro-Color management system. It was just a manaual system, leading through several screens to adjust brightness, contrast etc. It's done by sight, so I assume the results are far from optimal. Ultimately, I want to get something like Syder Pro, but for now I would like some input.
When I start the Photoshop Elements editor I get this error message: The monitor profile "Samsung-Natural Color Pro 1.0 appears to be defective. Please retiurn your monitor callibration software. There are two dialog boxes underneath.........."ignore profile" or "use anyway." I'm not sure which choice I choose to go past.
I'm not sure if any of this information directly relates to printing pictures. I've not tried submit the pictures to another online photo finisher like Costco. I live in a small town and don't get over to Costco that often.
Based on the information I've provided, does anyone have any idea why the pictures would be dark and less vivid? They look good on screen.
Thanks for your help.

Allow others to order iPhoto calendar via Apple Photos Services (or other)

I thought I saw this option somewhere, but I have an iPhoto calendar that I've printed through Apple Photo Services for myself. I now want to make that cal available for others to print without having to be involved in placing the order for them. Is that possible? Ideally, they would not even need a .mac account, but could order as a guest. If Apple does not offer this service, does anyone know of a short-run printer that will take the PDF and make a cal of it? Fed Ex/Kinko's does not have a lot of info on their site for that kind of thing. I will call them shortly.
Thanks.

Thanks Terence. I assume the file is stored on the Apple server for 4 weeks (in which time it is removed), so I'm unclear why they can't assign it a unique number and allow me to send that number to my mom who can use it to order the cal. That does not seem impossible to me and could help Apple make more money on prints.

Photoshop Elements Help | Print or share photos online

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/using/print-share-photos-online.html

How do you e-mail photo

Lightroom and Online photo services

Will Lightroom provide any special integration features with one or more of the online services as Elements 5 does with SmugMug, or is this something that is typically added latter on as a plug in?

Typically added as a plugin. If Smugmug provides a uploader program (like Flickr) then you can add an alias/shortcut to it in the Export Actions folder. In V1 you can then set up an Export Preset to give one click access to it.

Hi When going from Develop module to print module a white boarder appears on screen which also prints via my epson r3000 printer. I can get round this by exporting photo to Elements and printing from there but can i get rid of the boarder and print from lightroom?

In the printer driver (accessed through the Page Setup button) set the Advanced tab to borderless. Then in the right hand panel under Layout set all the margins to zero.

OT: Online photo printing services (well it is Friday)

Has anyone here used Snapfish or Walgreens for online photo
printing (where
u get the prints mailed or u pick them up at walgreens)?
How do you rate their service and print quality (provided
original image is
acceptable)?
any other services out there worth looking into?
or do you just print at home. If so, what printer?
Have a nice weekend
BW

I want to stay away from having them mailed, want the
convience of being
able to get prints fairly quickly (hence the photo printer
idea). I;ve read
that Walgreens can have them developed fairly quickly once
you have uploaded
and ordered.
Thanks

Photoshop elements 5 printing photos

When printing in Adobe photoshop elements 5 with windows xp, SOME of the photos show horizontal blaack lines in various locations. If these lines appear in the print preview final screen, they print on the photo. I have spent 4 hours online with HP to determine it is NOT a printer problem.
Some photos print well and others show the lines. ANy advice?

Having a nearly identical problem here. Just bought a new computer, which upgraded me from XP to Win 7, and at the same time I upgraded to Photoshop Elements 9. I restored my Photoshop Elements backup, but found a majority of my photos had become disconnected due to a change in the folder hierarchy from XP to Win 7. Many of my photos when I was using XP were in C:\documents and settings\..., but in Windows 7 there is no documents and settings folder under C:, and Windows won't even let me create a folder with that name so as to move the photos back into it. So now all my photos are in C:\Users\My Pictures\... and PSE can't seem to find them. I have to browse on each one to manually reconnect it. Very tedious and no way that is going to work for nearly 10,000 photos in my catalog. What's worse, the program freezes after I perform a half-dozen or so reconnects. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program, and also the suggestion on the Adobe tech note (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/400/kb400848.html) and neither seems to abate the freezing issue. I've also tried both restore options (restore to same location and restore to new location/preserve folder layout) and the folder hierarchy is still messed up either way. Any suggestions?

Printing from Elements 8 using Epson Stylus Photo R300

Help! I'm really quite useless at all this computer stuff, and my problem is slowly driving me mad!!! I am trying, unsuccessfully, to print from Elements 8 using an Espon Stylus Photo R300. However, I dont know what settings to use. I can get prints - but they dont represent what I see on the monitor. I have tried using Picasa and the representation on the print isnt too far removed from that on the monitor. iPhoto is slightly worse. Can anyone tell me in simple english what settings I need to use - I have seen other discussions on the same topic and think that color management should be done by the Elements 8 and not the printer? Any help would be very much appreciated - before I lose it all together

Hi Syd. I was out on the web and saw where you respond to a message about printing using R300 printer. If you can help me that would be great.. this is the message that I sent Jayne who was having a problem..
Hi Jayne,
Did you get you problem resolved. I am experiencing the same problem with with element 8 and Epson r300 printer. I tried both support groups Adobe wanted me to upgrade to element 9. and Epson gave me the phone running. I have taking the printer to a Epson service center and the printer is working fine. I have change the various options in the software and no sucess. I had one image that I only crop and it the colors came out wrong. Now if I don't touch the image and just print it the colors come out fine.. So please let me know if you got it resolved.

PC running Windows 7 with Photoshop Elements 7 printing to an EPSON Stylus PHOTO R1800

Please help! I am an amateur photographer. This printer produced excellent photos until my old PC died. I just bought a new Dell XPS 9000 with Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 and connected my printer. The photos look terrible. Clearly, the PC and Printer are not working together properly (syncronized COLOR wise). To consistently obtain the best, life-like colors in my pictures, what do I need to do? WHICH (Photoshop Elements or the Epson) should manage the color, and what settings should I use? Each has a setting to allow the other to control the color. Which will produce the best photos? I have tried many different combinations of settings without success. All of my photos come out brownish yellow. I am feeling desperate. I am an older,retired person with a limited understanding of computers, so I need simple,detailed,step-by-step instructions on how to correct this problem. Thank you.

What do you mean by "not compatible"? What happens, exactly, when you try to print?

When I try to print a 4X6 photo using Elements 12 it prints out 2X3. Does anyone know how you can get hold a live person at Adobe?

When attempting to print a 4X6 photo using Elements 12 it prints out 2X3. Does anyone know how you can get hold of a live person at Adobe?

I've never done a forum and am not exactly sure what to do from here.   I
know how to do a screen shot on my phone, but not on my computer.
I'm about ready to throw every adobe product I have out the window!   If
you purchase a product you should be able to get support from the company.

'Hi, On opening organiser on Elements 12, I get " Online services could not be initialized. Please reinstall. Press ok to continue without online services" And I can't open Editor. Where do I go to to reinstall and how??

What computer operating system are you using? If Windows go to:
C:\Users\99jon\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Online Services
Inside the Online Services folder delete the Photoshop Elements 12.0.0 folder.
Re-launch Organizer and OLS should get recreated.
N.B substitute your user name for 99jon. If you can’t find AppData you may first need to enable the showing of hidden system files.
Follow these steps to display hidden files and folders.
Open Folder Options by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking Appearance and Personalization, and then clicking Folder Options.
Click the View tab.
Under Advanced settings, click Show hidden files and folders, and then click OK.

Online Photo Printing Format PSE4 XP

Since jpeg and some other formats are "lossy" and thus lose some quality each time they are opened, edited and closed again I convert all original images to .tif before editing and I also archive them as .tif. (Opening and closing jpeg without editing does not degrade the quality)
However some online photo labs (Walgreen) require only jpeg or bmp formats (which are much smaller file size and faster to upload/download than tif). If I convert the tif to jpeg, bmp, etc and have the photos printed have I lost any quality in the process when I reformat my archived images back to tif?
Jack

Th eloss of quality occurs when you save to JPEG, as that's when the compression occurs. So, if you camera delivers JPEGs, you shoul dopen those, work on them and save as TIFF or PSD. Then, create a temporary JPEG as and when you need one. [If you have PSE 3/4 on Win, Organizer's File/Export is ideal for this.]
