Facial Recognition with scanned photos - Elements Organizer 11

My facial recognition works fine with my digital photos but not my scanned photos. It used to work a couple of weeks ago but the power was turned off and my computer was turned on at the time. Im not sure if that has anything to do with it but thought Id throw it out there. I am running the program on my mac.
Thanks for any help you can give me!

Please try renaming last files mentioned in hierarcy:
C:\Users\suresing.ADOBENET\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Elements Organizer\11.0\Organizer\psa.prf
peoplestatus.dat file present in your catalog folder (location can be found from Help->System Info)
and click on 'add people' button.

I wonder if the new version of ADOBE PHOTO ELEMENTS 13 would keep me all families and labels that I have made over 14,000 photos with adobe photo elements 9

Hi,
It should do but nobody can guarantee it 100%.
The best thing is to download the trial version and install that. When you install it, it should take a copy of your current catalog and then convert that copy to the new format. Your Photoshop Elements 9 should not be affected.
It is always a good idea to ensure that you have a backup of your catalog & photos when you start a major update like this. Take a backup using the Elements Backup to Hard drive option (under File menu) - best backed up to an external drive.
It is ok to have both version installed on your system but I suggest that you just use the version 12 to check out the catalog conversion to start with. If you are happy with that, you can always run the conversion at a later stage if you have updated the version 9 catalog. You can not convert the version 12 catalog back to a version 9 catalog.
The trial version can be found here.

Help with scanned photo in layers

I am using Elements 9 trial, and my questions involves scanned photos. I understand that the layers do not show in a scanned photo, and so I would like to know if there is a way to save the photos in Elements 9 so the layers can show. What I want to do is remove all text from a magazine cover, leaving the person on the photo so I'll end up with a portrait with only the person's likeness. Can this be done? I am new to all this and would really appreciate some help. Thanks ...

You can try the following lines in PSE6:
- After you have splitted all the scanned images, save all the images
- now go to each image and select the part of the image that you want in the final image. You can use any of the available selection tools
- now after selecting the part of the image, right click on the selected part and choose Layer via copy option
- as soon as you will select this option a new layer would be created in the layers pane that you can find at right hand side. If the layers pane is not visible, you can select Window->Layers option to make it visible.
- The new layer created in the layers pane would contain only that part of the image that you have selected.
- Now select that layer in the layers pane and right click on it
- You will get an option Duplicate Layer. Select it.
- You will see a new dialog box.
- Now give it a new name.
- In the drop down, select the blank document that you have just created above. By default its name should be Untitled-1
- Now Press OK button.
- Go to the blank document that you have created. There you will find the new layer pasted that you have selected in the scanned image.
- You can also adjust the size and the position of the new layer of image on the blank document (which is not blank at this point of time)
- Now repeat the above steps for all the scanned images.
Repost if you get any problems in doing above steps.
Thanks.

Photo Elements Organizer crashes

Downloaded the trial version of PSE 9 and opened the photo editing page. When I selected the Organizer icon and attempted to import photos from i Photo the Organizer crashed. The only was I could get out of the program was to force quit. Repeated efforts have given the same results. As far as I can tell I have never seen the Welcome Page. I have had some success with the PE page and have been able to import individual images there and have been able to edit those images. What am I doing wrong?

The best I can tell there are 7221 items in the catalog. Scrolling thru the catalog I see a lot of images that I did not originally take or to my knowledge import. You can see from the above threads that I was not able to import directly from IPhoto so I did a work around and imported all the files individually.
I would like to start over completely but am not sure how to do that. How can I just delete everything and begin the trial again?

Want to create ibook as a gift with scanned photos

What is your problem? Are you unable to understand how to use the free iBooks Author app? If so, exactly what don't you get?

Need help with scanned photo....

I scanned a photo into iphoto'11 using a new fujitsu scansnap s1500m. Once I saved it, I changed the extension from .pdf to .jpg by going to "get info." I then imported it into iphoto and I can see the thumbnail -- but when I click on the thumbnail I get a black screen. I am using a MacBook Pro OS X 10.6.8 if that helps. Can anyone tell me what did i do wrong?
I am a senior who is not very tech savvy, but I try. I have scanned a total of two photos, but can only launch one of them in iphoto. I have compared the three using "get info" but can't see a difference. An old lady needs help......

You should also be able to set the scan type to JPG in, I'm assuming, there's an online preference window for your scanner. It may be set to PDF as a default in the scanner.
Here's a Link to a Windows Help page on setting preferences:

You should be able to do similar things with your Mac.

What's The Point of Miana With Scanned Photo Dates?...

So I had the issue of scanning paper photos to digital images and importing them into iPhoto (and changing the dates from when the photos were scanned to when the photos were actually taken) that I'm sure many people have had. Now I've heard it suggested before to use a program called Miana (http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/26900) to put photos in an entire folder and with the program you can set the contents of the entire folder to have been created at a date that you specifiy (i.e. when photos were taken). After doing this you could import the files into iPhoto and have the dates be acurate. But of course, you can change the date of the photos and even the film roles in iPhoto so they can be correct. So why do this? Just to have the files creation date be the same as when it was taken? But I noticed in iPhoto's library system when you import... you are making another copy of the photos into the libarary system, so the creation date is always going to be wrong. So what is then the point of using Miana? I don't really mind this but lets say one day I want to switch back to windows. How can I backup my photos and keep the proper dates of when photos were actually taken? If your being a good computer using and backup often, creation dates are always changing, no? Any thoughts?

brianzk1:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Even though iPhoto copies the file into its library the created (or modified date if it's later than the created date) is used. Making a duplicate copy of an existing file does not change those dates as you're only making a bit by bit copy. Copying a file to another HD does not change those dates either.
One way to keep the dates straight is to rename them with the date. I use the international date format, YYYY-MM-DD-01.jpg, like this. I've started lately adding a brief description to the files after the date like this.
You can use R-Name to batch rename them before importing into iPhoto. It provides excellent chronological sorting and searching.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Synching iPod with Adobe Photo Elements 4

I've been syncing my 60GB iPod with my PC via Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 since September and it has worked fine. I recently upgraded to Photoshop Elements 4.0, uninstalling Album in the process. iTunes no longer shows Album as a synchronising option in the Preferences dropdown (fair enough) but nor does it show Elements 4.0 as an option which I guess it should (it only shows 'My Pictures' or 'Choose a folder'). Anybody seen this problem before or know how I can get iTunes to recognise my Photoshop Elements catalogue? I've already re-installed iTunes and the Ipod software with no effect.
PC Windows XP

Ok, well, the solution is given in the thread of jackstone5, dated December 14. However if you are not familiar with regedit I can imagine that you are hesitating to perform this action. Maybe you can find someone in your environment who does. The solution is not too complicated for someone who is familiar with computers.
Of course it would be better that Apple solves this problem.
By the way, glad to hear that my other problem is not only my problem, as I could nowhere found someone having this problem other than people using Iphoto. Let's hope a solution is around ...

Photo Elements Organizer

When I go into the Organizer and select "People" and then select a specific person to view the pictures I have of them, it doesn't display all the pictures, but displayes some as an Icon of some type. Why can't I see all the pictures?

You can see from the above threads that I was not able to import directly from IPhoto so I did a work around and imported all the files individually.

Photo Elements 13 Organizer dumped all catalogue data and failed to restore backup

16 December 2014, Photo Elements Organizer running on i7 and windows 7 Pro. All Adobe data base info had failed in that all that was visible in organizer was music files, (mp3). Attempted to reload data from file menu options, restore from a backup etc all failed. Had to re install the software. Editor still functioned OK. Possible issue may have been a windows update which effected Adobe's software? Reinstalled from CD, updated and reloaded images and the software is now functioning. However this database corruption has dented the users confidence in the security of the Organizer database some 3K+ images. Any possible remedies to make sure this does not happen again would be welcome.

From your description, there is not much we can do to help you as other Organizer users. The first thing which comes to mind is that when you can see only a type of file (music, video...), chances are that you have inadvertently set the organizer to show only that type of file (another post on the same subject today : How do I find missing .mov files in Organizer?).
After all you have attempted, we'll never know if that was the case.
More details would be helpful to know why you were not able to restore your backup (was it from the Organizer or another software?)
My personal guess is that the Windows update has nothing to do with your problems and that there has been no database corruption; the real problem is elsewhere.
If you give us more details, we'll be happy to help you.

Facial Recognition issues

So I have a few issues.
1) In iPhoto I noticed the more faces that I put in anyone person the higher the sucsess rate or finding more similar faces. Thus when I would show un-named faces I could just click conirm yes or no. In Aperture, I have rougly 10,000 faces from several hundred people that I have put in. Example my daugher, I have 690 photos of her with her face properly identified. However, while Aperture does an amazing job finding faces, and car rims, and tree branchs it does no longer suggest thier names. I have to manually put each one in. With other 50,000 imges with probably 150,000 people in it. So how do I get aperture to suggest faces anymore?
2) Also in iPhoto it would tell me how many more pictures I have to identify that are unknowns and in Aperture I can't figure out how many I have left to do. Is there a way to see that?
3) I have my facebook set up in Aperture, however in iPhoto when I typed in a name that was on facebook it would show the persons face next to theri name. In Aperture I see the gray box with no face. This makes me think my names are not connected or connecting to the internet. The strange thing is, I can add photos to facebook so the online connecivity would apear correct.
To explain how I got to this which may help you figure out a solution. I initally had a folder with all my photos on it on my PC. I moved the folder to my iMac, from there, I imported them all into iPhoto. When I got Aperture, I imported all my iPhoto work wich took about 7-8 hours.
Thank you in advance for your help, suggestions, and

What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running? Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements are standalone products, each coming with an Elements Organizer. Same version, with both on the same computer they share the same Elements Organizer catalog.
All that being said....your question has somehow been posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing) and not the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum (photo editing).
It would be to your advantage to post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum so that people like Barbara Brundage, MichelBParis, dj_Paige and others can work with your on your Elements Organize facial recognition questions.

Please let us know your situation, program wise.
Thank you.

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.

Photoshop Elements Organizer 13 crash!!!

Hey everybode,
since yesterday I have a problem with my Photoshop Elements Organizer 13. It appears for a few seconds and after that it disapears as soon as it published. No report and no apparent reason. After a millions of install and uninstall still tthe same problem. Even the troubleshooting of Adobe brings no solution. What can I do now??? Any ideas???
I need help please!!!

zna22121,
Close computer down, and restart. If it does not work, it should, then re-install. But, do not attempt more than 200 at a time it just cannot handle it ?
Good luck
Ps. I just dislike Organiser, (it is too slow, and disorganised) you can go from PE 13 Editor ( My wife tried it and went back to PE 6 ) and Process Multiple Files only 200 at a time. in Photoshop Elements, Organizer may handle it ?
We often do video production stills of 2,000 from PE 6 and we know it works ,when you use the images in Adobe CS5.5.2 Premiere Pro..for HD & Blue -ray transfers.. It is very easy ?

Elements Organizer Problem - Question Marks and Application Won't Quit Cleanly

I recently upgraded from Photoshop Elements/Premier Elements 11 to version 13 on a Mac. After the upgrade, my elements organizer is experiencing some issues.
1. When I click on a double click on a thumbnail, I am taken to screen that has a large question mark on it. (Not the photo) Elements organizer knows exactly where the file is on my hard drive though as I can edit it in photoshop elements. In addition, I can right click on the thumbnail and select show file Info -> Double click on Location. When I do this I am taken do the correct file in finder.
2. My other issue is that the program doesn't close properly. If I choose Quit from the menu bar, the program GUI closes, but it stays resident in my dock. I have to force close in order to open the organizer again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Ben

Trying renaming your contacts.xml file. To access the file, you need to go - Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/adobe/elements organizer/organizer/settings I just named it "renamedfile.xml". A new contacts file will appear after you reopen the program.
I've had this problem a few times and renamed this file (after a support person from Adobe told me to the first time). It opens after I remaned it.
The contacts function of the organizer doesn't seem to be a stable. It always deletes entries that I want to add in.
Hope this helps

Does Kinect for Windows V2 provide facial recognition API? Thanks

Does Kinect for Windows V2 provide facial recognition API? Thanks

For facial recognition with the Kinect, you can use the Developer Toolkit (v1.5.1). The API for the FaceTracking tools can be found
here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj130970.aspx.
You can also refer: How
To: Kinect for Windows SDK Face Recognition Series
Facial Recognition with Kinect
Kinect
for Windows: SDK and Runtime version 1.5 Released
As mentioned in the article: Kinect for Windows:
Frequently asked questions
Does Kinect for Windows SDK offer facial recognition capabilities?
Since version 1.5, the Kinect for Windows SDK and toolkit have supported real-time face tracking. Face tracking is not intended for facial recognition or identification. Face tracking detects and tracks the positions and orientations of faces in real time and
provides animated three-dimensional (3D) meshes that are positioned in 3D over the Kinect depth sensor data. Face tracking can animate, in real time, eyebrow positions and mouth shape, as well as provide a high-resolution 3D mesh of the face than can be animated.
With the SDK 2.0, Kinect can also track whether eyes are open or closed, the position of the nose, facial expressions, and the direction the face is pointing. The resolution of the tracked face has been increased by 20 times with a 1,360-point mesh, so that
faces look more realistic. Conventional face-recognition algorithms can be used with the Kinect for Windows sensor’s RGB stream; we continue to investigate how the Kinect for Windows sensor's extra capabilities can be used.
For more details you can Ask a Question @ Kinect
