Sorry. I do not know the right words in English. But I will try to explain.
Within the PSE frame or window on the left side you can look on the directory, in the middle you look on files / pictures and just above the file is shown (can be scrolled by clicking)which contains the files and pictures in th bottom).- That's what I mean with "built-in browser", better perhaps "directory". If I use it / click on files PSE crashes.
The other way to open files and pictures is this: In the horizontal strip at the edge of the frame I click on the menue, then "open" (if I translate from German to English). I get the *apple-finder" (it looks like at least). I search for the picture, click on it and it opens in PSE and PSE does not crash.
Uff. ;-) PSE makes me practising my English.

How to go from Photoshop Album Starter Edition to Photoshop Elements?

I have both Photoshop Album Starter Edition and Photoshop Elements on my computer. I didn't even know I had the PSA SE--I just assumed it was part of Photoshop Elements when it automatically opened after I stuck my photo disk in. So I started playing around with it and cataloged my new photos. Then I started Photoshop Elements, and none of the cataloging or tags that I had just entered in PSA SE were there. Is there any way to transfer the information from PSA SE to Photoshop Elements without having to retype everything?

You need to locate the PSA SE catalog file. It is called My Catalog.PSA and is Docs&Settings somewhere [in a hidden folder]. Once you have located it, in PSE organizer do File/Catalog/Open and navigate to the file you just located. It will be converted and everything should work OK.

Photoshop Album 2.0 Starter Edition mit Photoshop Elements 2.0

Hallo, ich fange klein an und arbeite z.Z. mit der Photoshop Album 2.0 Starter Edition. Darin finde ich die Funktion Korrigieren. Innerhalb des neuen Korrekturfenster wird mir angeboten mein Photo zu Bearbeiten mit.. Jetzt sollte das Produkt Photoshop Elements 2.0 aufgerufen werden. Es erscheint aber nur ein Newsletter zu diesem Produkt. Ich besitze Elements 2.0, habe es installiert. Wie binde ich die Software in die Starter Edition ein?

Photoshop Album 2.0 (nicht Starter Edition) und Photoshop Elements 2.0 arbeiten bei vielen, vielen Leuten einwandfrei. Vielleicht kannst Du Dein Problem etwas genauer beschreiben ...

Need help getting pics from Adobe Starter Edition to Photoshop Elements 10!!!

I had Adobe Photoshop Starter Edition already installed on my computer when I bought it. I hadn't used it in quite a while because my camera was broken. I recently got a new camera. I tried to export my pics to my computer and as soon as it came up my pics immediately went to Adobe Photoshop Starter Edition. It wants me to put in a registration code which I don't have because it is no longer a working product. I talked to someone in chat and they said to install Photoshop Elements and I should be able to get them into the new program. I've installed that and I still can't figure out how to do it when the starter edition won't let me do anything without a registration key!!!!!!!!!!! I want my pics back!!! These pics are precious to me.....the sad part is I clicked on the box to NOT erase them from my camera....and it erased them anyways. Can someone please help???
Thanks,
Lisa

Your pictures are not really in the starter edition program.
From an adobe employee Mark Dahm:
"It is a common misconception that Starter Edition 'stores', or copies, your files into it. But the program does not move or copy files at all, rather it scans your system's My Pictures directory, and generates miniature versions of your pictures (called thumbnails) so that you can browse a 'flat' list of thumbnails of your photos, overcoming the inconvenience of having to go into separate folders in Windows Explorer to have to find files.The thumbnails, as well as any tags, and Albums that you create in Starter Edition are all stored in the Photoshop Album catalog file, separate from your pictures, and your pictures remain where you originally copied them to your computer.
If you use Photoshop Album to subsequently download files from a digital camera or scanner, the default location where the program will create those files would be in the My Pictures>Digital Camera Photos folder. But if you do NOT use Photoshop Album Starter edition to download files from your camera, then you will find that folder empty.
The thumbnails in the Starter Edition catalog will exist, even if you decide to move or delete the original photos that were added to the program. This will cause files in the Photoshop Album catalog to become 'disconnected' from the original photos. To reconnect the files, you can use the File>Reconnect Missing files command to see if the program can locate the original files in a new location, and once again re-link the catalog thumbnails to the files they once referenced.
Since Photoshop Album has been discontinued, I recommend that folks find an alternative solution. One alternative that will preserve most of what you've created in Starter Edition is the Photoshop Elements 8 trial. Install that, and it will automatically convert the Photoshop Album catalog to a current format, and the program will not time out, as Starter Edition did. If you want to purchase more Editing power, you can also choose to purchase the full program, but it's not required.
If you are like many who have come to this forum wondering how you can get to your photos, now that the program has become locked or expired, don't worry; your photos have never been moved by Photoshop Album; they remain wherever you intially put them, on your hard drive. To get to them, you can navigate your file system using Windows Explorer. They are typically in your My Documents>My Pictures folder. Here is a handy How-To that you could refer to to find photos on your system, as well as some other tips for how you can use folders to keep your photos organized: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/maintain/filemgmt.mspx
Hope those tips help!

From starter edition to photoshop elements 12

how do we transfer the collections and tags from windows xp (adobe starter edition) to windows 8.1 (adobe photoshop elements 12)? There are close to 200 collections in ADOBE STARTER EDITION 3.2. It looks like elements 12 calls them albums.

Trial version is a fully functional version of the product that you can use for thirty days. you can download and install it from http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements&loc=us.
Photoshop Elements consists of two components. The Organizer with which you manage and organize your media. This is where collections and tags will show. The Editor with which you can edit your images.
If it does what you want, you would install the product from the trial download onto your Windows 8 computer. Then backup your catalog from your XP machine and restore it to your Windows 8 machine.
More information about converting from starter edition at http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/whathappenedto/p/photoshopalbum.htm.

How to "save for web" via batch processing in Photoshop elements

I have a bunch of logos that need to be resized and 'save for web." How can I process these files as a batch in Photoshop elements. Many thanks!

You can batch save them as jpgs, gifs, or PNGs using Process Multiple Files, and even batch resize them as long as they are all in the same orientation and the same aspect ratio (shape), but the resulting files will be somewhat larger than you'd get with Save for Web because Save for Web removes the photos' exif data, which PMF won't. Since these are logos, there shouldn't be much difference.

Probleme nach Start von Adobe Photoshop Elements 10.0.0 unter Windows 7 32-Bit SP1

Hallo zusammen,
bei uns ist Adobe Photoshop Elements 10.0.0 im Einsatz.
Nach dem Start von dem Programm hängt dies für ca. 3 Minuten, bevor man arbeiten kann (keine Auffälligkeiten im Taskmanager).
1. Mit welchem Programm könnte dies zusammenhängen (Adobe Reader XI, Java)?
2. Könnte dies auch mit der Firewall oder einer zentralen Einstellung zusammenhängen, dass in dieser Zeit etwas nicht zulässt?
3. Gibt es hierfür mögliche Lösungsvorschläge? Neuinstallation bringt nichts, da dies bei mehreren Clients auftritt.
ich würde mich über eine Antwort freuen.
Danke
Grüße
Ajos

Photoshop Elements 10 ruft beim Programmstart die Adresse static.photoshop.com auf und bekommt keine Antwort, weil diese Adresse nicht mehr existiert (der Photoshop.com Service wurde dieses Jahr deaktiviert und durch Adobe Revel ersetzt). Die Verzögerung lässt sich abstellen, indem man die DNS Anfrage für static.photoshop.com in der lokalen hosts-Datei auf localhost (127.0.0.1) umleitet. Die hosts Datei liegt unter C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc. und lässt sich mit einem Texteditor (z.B. Notepad) öffnen. Dort bitte die folgende Zeile 127.0.0.1 static.photoshop.com (ohne Rautezeichen davor) eintragen.

Problem with start up Adobe Photoshop Elements 8

Tried to start up my Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 on my MacBook Pro running on Maverick 10.9.5 it would not startup and this message popped up!

I need to use my scanner for scanning and Photoshop Elements to merge the pix together (usually magazines or newspapers for my client's PR Reports).
Appreciate your help much!

Hello Barbara,
I had my Mac rebooted with a roll back to an earlier setting of three weeks back. But I have been using the Photoshop Elements for ages. And it had been working fine even with Mavericks.
I gave since downloaded the license repair from Adobe, but I cannot get it to work, as when clicked on the installer app, a window pops up to say that the power pc is no less longer supported!
Am really stressed as I need to scan and Photomerge the mags and dailies for my clients.
Hope you can help me out.
Thanks!

Infinite loop - first start of Adobe Photoshop Elements 13

Hello,
I just bought a new version of Adobe photoshop elements 13 (CD-Rom with Key). So I installed the software, created an account, registred the software in my account and then I started the application.
What now happens is a little bit confusing. I get a window with the hint "Login necessary - To activate your software bla bla bla". So I use my Adobe-ID and log in as described. Then I get a window to accept the software licence agreement. I accept them, the window closes and nothing more happens.
I start Elements again, I get the hint "Login necessary...", Login, licence agreement, close and so on. I am not able to start this software. Any hints?

Try Shikha's solution in this thread:
Elements 12 - not working

Help! After starting organizer on photoshop elements 8, it crashes!

Just after opening the organizer it closes as little as 5 seconds or as long as 90 seconds later. A window appears stating: CRASH Report for Elements Organizer. Adobe has detected that the application Elements Organizer has unexpectedly quit. And then I continue by clicking SEND to send crash report. HELP any ideas on how to fix? I have updated everything. Have plenty of RAM, and room. Tried turning off applications at start and it still does this.

Great, glad you got it working again. In general, I recommend never running the Auto-Analyzer:

Start up Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 - why does it stall at "restoring people recognition data" 42%

I just downloaded and installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 & Adobe Premiere Elements 11 (Windows,English). When it starts up it stalls at the dialogue box "restoring people recognition data" 42%.
I have to close the program then the whole thing happens again.
Pretty frustrating for $150............... to upgrade from Elements 8

This seens to be a problem of Media Analysis which generally arises if there are too many/too large assets in your catalog.
Just try the following steps:-
1. Go to Edit->Preferences->Media Analysis
2 Go to People Recognition options
3. Uncheck the "Analyse Photo for People recognition".
4. Press "OK"

Batch processing in Photoshop elements 9

Hi, I have have hundreds of photos in folders that I want to resize in batch using PSE 9. I would appreciate receiving instructions. Many thanks.

Go to the File menu in the Editor and select Process Multiple Files. This lets you perform renaming and resizing en masse. You can select the source folder and choose to include sub-folders. You also have the option to overwrite or save the new files to a different location.
The only thing to bear in mind is there's no option to prevent up-sizing. If you specify a new size that's greater than the photo(s) being processed it will increase the dimensions, with the possible loss of quality.

How to migrate Photoshop Elements Organizer from MacOS to Windows?

I have been using PSE Organizer for a long time now; started on Windows. When v9 arrived with near identical functionality and user interface between Windows and Mac, it took the risk to migrate from a stable Windows environment to MacOS. This served a certain purpose, but proved to not be the ideal situation. I currently have over 21k pictures (most now also on Adobe Revel). I an staying with Organizer because, I believe, it is the best photo "organizer" out there.
Challenge: source is all on a Mac, back-up is on Revel, and I want to move PSE Organizer from Mac to Win, without having to start tagging all over again.
Questions:
1) Can this be done?
2) How can I do this while keeping all my tags and categories, as well as sync with Revel?
Addressing this will finalize my upgrade to v11.
Thank you in advance for ideas, suggestions, expertise and experience.

Please find my comments inline with the question:
1) Can this be done? : Yes this can definately be done. To do this you need to take backup on Mac and restore on Mac. This will ensure all media,tag,album and their association remaining intact. For details on how to, please refer: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/elementsorganizer/using/WS3d021fd412237a2f14afb0171392eec10c6- 7ffe.html
2). For sync with Revel: Elements Organizer11, provides you to import/export media to/fro Revel client (on both Win and Mac). I would suggest to downaload a trial version and see for yourself if it suits your purpose.
Please let me know if you need more info on it.
