Entering Message when Sharing Photos via E-mail

Question

Just loaded PS Elements v11. Have used PS  Elements v7-9 previously. When sharing photos using e-mail (comcast.net) as attachments and photo mail, I was able to enter a message to recipient before sending the e-mail. In Elements 11, in area where text can be entered, I cannot get a cursor to type a message. The phrase, Here are photos....., is embedded there and can't even erase. Area is frozen to using a cursor. Sending the e-mail is no problem. Would appreciate help so I can start sharing photos. Thank you.

Answer 1

  I think there is some kind of scripting bug in PSE11 when sharing photos by email but there is a work around.
Select your thumbnails and click Share >> Photomail
Then choose your contact and continue.
After choosing stationery, click next step.
In the next dialog (customize & layout) click on the text dropdown and change from Arial to Times New Roman (may not be essential but it works for me).
Then click next.
When the email appears you should now be able to select (click until a bounding box appears around the text like that of a picture) and delete all the Adobe automatic text, leaving only the photo(s). Delete the web link and text below the photo using the backspace key. You should now be able to add your own text.
Then hit send.
I can’t guarantee it will work on your system but it works on windows Vista and it’s worth trying.
