File Palette Organization

When you open the DW files palette showing both local files and the files on
the server, local are on the right and server is on the left. GL has them
opposite. Is it possible to flip them in DW so that local are on the left
and server are on the right? You wouldn't believe the confusion (and bad
things) this has caused.
Thanks,
~Nick

Nicholas,
 
 You can change the setup in DW's Preferences. The default is Right, but you can change it to Left. See screen shot.

I am trying to backup my Itunes onto my external hard drive. I am at the step where I on Itunes, click on File ->Library ->Organize library. I am suppose to check mark both boxes there, the first being "Consolidate Files" & the second being "Reorganize files in the folder 'Itunes Media'. I am able to checkmark the first box but It won't allow me to check mark the second box, why? How can i fix this? Please help!

Well you must have made a mistake somewhere. The last instruction of step four reads:
When you've found your iTunes library folder, drag that folder to your external hard drive. This will begin the iTunes backup. The amount of time the backup will take depends on the size of your library. When the transfer is done, your backup is complete and your external hard drive can be disconnected.
Normally dragging content from to a new location on a different drive will result in a copy action which is what you were supposed to do. At a guess you somehow managed to move the iTunes folder. Then when you started iTunes it created a new blank library for you assuming it had just been installed rather that raising a warning.
Close iTunes. Rename the iTunes folder on the internal drive as iTunes (Empty) then copy the iTunes folder from the external back into the User's Music folder. Start iTunes. All should be well.
When you've made sure it all works please read my User Tip and use that method to backup in future. Since you already have a folder with the backup in place you can skip the "Make New" operation in the fourth step and simply choose the external folder.

Is it possible to export a file from Organizer with the list of all the images in an album?

Is it possible to export a file from Organizer with a list of all the images in a certain album? In filling one of my albums I did not save my edited images to the same file... they are spread out a bit.... Now I want them to make a book with them (outside of Elements).

As far as I know, Elements does not have the ability to create lists.
The solution to your problem of making a book outside of Elements is to place all the desired photos in an Album and then select File->Export->As New Files which gives you the ability to make a copy of every photo in the album in a new folder, from which you would create your photobook.

DW CS3 / OS 10.5 - File Palette keyboard shortcuts don't work

Frustrating - on my Dell, I can use the keyboard to
delete/confirm and open files listed in the File Palette. For
example, I can hit backspace/delete and remove a file after
confirming with an Enter. If I want to open a file, I select it and
hit enter - it opens in DW.
The problem lies with my other (preferred) computer. On my
MBPro with OS10.5 and DW CS3, none of my keyboard shortcuts work in
the same palette.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Pete

When watching videos, I frequently find need to jump forward or backward within the video. I do this using the slider (playhead) on the on screen control.
The problem I have is that if I do that once, from then on, I cannot use the spacebar to play/pause the video. All I get is an annoying beep. Is there a way to reactivate the keyboard controls without having to close Quicktime and restart?
If it makes any difference, I'm running OS X 10.9 on an early 2013 MacBook Pro (15 inch, Retina display). I recently upgraded to Mavericks but the problem predates the upgrade.
What files compression formats and data rates are you using? QT X v10.3 or QT 7 v7.6.6 player? (Assume v10.3 from topic title but wanted to confirm.)
Basically, I am unable to duplicate the stated problem on an iMac using H.264/AAC test files with data rates up to 20+ Mbps in either QT player app. Do have a problem with QT 7 player app being able to "jump" to a new playhead position in high data rate files probably due to a need to read/traverse all of the intervening data. (I.e., can sometimes take several seconds to complete.)
If you feel the problem is a bug connected to your specific platform or the specific type of file you are using while operating under Mavericks, suggest you file a QT Apple Product "Bug" Feedback Report USING THIS FORM.

Organize Event Files VS Organize Project Files???

What is the difference between "Organize Event Files" and "Organize Project Files"?
I know that organizing your event files turns all the aliases into physical files on the selected drive, but what is going on in the background when you are organizing your project files???

Hello mrbean,
I am sorry you seem to be having trouble with the deployment utility. Are you trying to deploy some sequence files, or only some LabVIEW VI's? When you add your sequence file to a workspace, and then use the deployment tool to analyze the workspace file, TestStand will check for dependencies of the code modules, and deploy them to a support folder on the deployment machine automatically. One very valuable resource for dealing with deployment issues is the TestStand manual, chapter 14. This manual can be found at C:\Program Files\National Instruments\TestStand x.x\Doc\Manuals\TestStandReferenceManual.pdf. Are there specific areas of the deployment that are giving you trouble that we may be able to give you more specific answers on?

How to edit a file from Organizer and return it to Organizer?

In PSE5, in Organizer, I want to fix a photo. I right-click it and "go to quick fix" or"go to full edit". Editor opens up, I edit the photo, and want to return to Organizer. How to do that? If I try to save, I have to go through several dialogs, including warning that I'm about to replace an existing file, and default option to save a version; which all looks like I'm creating another instance of the file. Or, if I want to fix multiple files, I select them all in Organizer and go to quick fix; once I have finished, I don't see how I can commit all changes back to Organizer (which is showing "edit in progress" on them meanwhile) - I have to save each individual file, going every time through those several dialogs. Am I missing something obvious?

Not missing anything, that's how it works. If you want to replace the
file, go ahead, but most people keep a separate version, so you have
your original, and then the one they changed. That way, if you don't
like what you did, you can always go back to the original. You should
get something like: IMG_001.jpg (let's say that's your original file),
and then IMG_001-edited-1.jpg as the next one in the version set. This
is how Elements works. Most editing does change pixels, so you actually
have a new file. (I know that some editors/organizers do support
non-destructive editing, but you are very limited in what things you can
do.)

How do I find missing .mov files in Organizer?

I imported some .mov files from my iPhone. I saw them in Organizer, now they don't show. The files are there. When I try to import them again, Organizer says they exist in the catalog and won't import again. I created a new catalog and imported them again. They showed up, then they were gone.

Hi,
You can try steps mentioned on Photoshop Elements (PSE) knowledge base. and see if it works.

No Thumbnails for AVI files in organizer

My AVI Video clips are not showing thumbnails in the PSE 11 Orgazizer.
Here is what I have observed as I have been troubleshooting this:
The files are MJPEG.
When I double click on it in the organizer window, I get audio, but no video.
If I open the file for edit in Premier Elements, the video thumbnail shows up in project assests and the video correctly plays in the Premier Elements editor.
If I double click on the files in Windows Explorer they open up in Quicktime Version 7.
The thumbnails for the files show in up windows explorer when I browse to the folder they are in.
I selected a file in PSE, chose 'Export to New File" and the file that I created by doing that showed a generic Quicktime icon without the thumbnail in windows explorer. When I double click on that file it correctly plays in Quicktime.
Selecting "Update Thumbnail" has no effect.
Thumnails are corrctly showing for .mov, .mpg and .mp4 file types.
Any one have any ideas what is going on with the organizer that might be causing this beavior or is this a know limitation of PSE Organizer. What is the point of having the organizer supporting video If I can't see the video without opening it in the Premier Elements Editor?
I am providing the "Systems Info" if that helps anyone.

I do not use Organizer, but instead Adobe Bridge (included with some other Adobe programs, like Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator and Premiere Pro), or ThumbsPlus (Cerious Software), and find that some AV formats/CODEC's just do not display thumbnails. I have had that issue with some, like MPEG-1 files, some WMV files, almost anything with DivX, or Xvid.
I have not used any MJPEG files, so cannot comment on them, but have helped others Import and edit those (never tried to work with any in Organizer, Bridge or ThumbsPlus), and in those cases, it usually boiled down to having the exact MJPEG CODEC installed. As each camera mfgr. seems intent on tweaking the MJPEG CODEC, it is normally possible to Import and edit, if THAT particular MJPEG CODEC is installed, and usually from the camera's utiltiy disc. Other times, the generic Morgan, or MainConcept MJPEG CODEC's have worked - though that seems to be less often, as Nikon, Panasonic, and others, keep tweaking.
As for the display of any problem AV files, it is usually an inability of the organizing utility to find a proper display, though in some cases, there IS a display, but the first Frame of the AV file is black, with a Dip-to-Black (in this case basically a Fade-in) Transition.
Good luck, and I wish that I had a fail-safe way to always display a thumbnail for ALL AV files, and even better, the ability to set the Poster Frame to what I wanted. So far, no organizer utility, that I have seen, can display thumbs for ALL AV formats - some will handle some AV formats/CODEC's, that others will not, but none has been perfect.

Can't drag files from Organizer 13 to different folder

I recently installed PSE13 on my PC running Windows 8.1. I've also downloaded the latest update and even the patch which corrected the mouse scrolling problem. Now I have a new problem. When I'm in the Organizer, I am no longer able to drag files to a different folder. For instance, I have a folder on my desktop which contains the pictures and videos I downloaded from my camera. I am able to see these files within the organizer, and the organizer clearly shows that the files are contained within the folder on my desktop. What I want to do within the organizer is to move these files by dragging them to my Pictures folder. The program will no longer allow me to accomplish this task. I use to be able to do this with no problem, but not anymore!! Is there a fix for this problem??? Thanks! Jeff

No, there is no error message. Your second question, asking if I first selected thumbnails, etc., prompted me to go back to the organizer to review exactly what happens when I try to select and drag a file to a new folder. And, because of your question, I have discovered new results: the first time I tried to select a picture, the normal hand appeared, but when I attempted to drag the file to a folder, all I got was the hand drawing a dotted rectangular box, and I could not drag the file to any folder. I tried this two more times with the same result. Then, I discovered that if I click on the far right side of the file thumbnail, I could actually drag it to a different folder. So, now I know precisely where to click on a thumbnail in order to successfully drag it to a folder. However, in previous versions, I could click anywhere on the thumbnail and drag without any problems. So, I will consider this problem "mostly" solved, and hopefully Adobe will address this problem on a future update. Thanks for your help!! Jeff

How do I save an image I have worked on in "Editor" into a file in "Organizer?

I have Photoshop Elements 11 and find that I cannot take images from email, work on them and then file them in the organizer. I can get images off of phones and digital cards but not from my gmail. What do I do?

Thank you so much for responding! I have spent so much time on this. The issue is that all photos open on Photoshop "Editor" and I can't stop it. Once they are on "Editor" I cannot save them anywhere!! Thanks for your help. Nana pat

Can't view RAW files in Organizer

I have Elements 5.0 and I just downloaded the Adobe Camera Raw 4.5 (latest version to work with 5.0) and while I can now edit raw files, I cannot see them as thumbnails in Organizer.
Is there something else I need to do? Does Elements 7.0 fix this problem? My camera is a Canon Xti.
I am unable to view RAW files as thumbnails in Windows Explorer either, and have been told it's a Canon driver issue, but I don't think that is related.
Thanks for any help.

This advice also applies to your case, PSE5 and ACR 4.5 (by the way, 4.6 is the latest version to work with PSE5)

Can't view .mov files in Organizer

Hi
I am in the process of moving my video footage from iMovie (Mac) to a Windows 7 PC with Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements.
On my Mac I have converted the files to .mov with the 'photo jpeg' codec, which seems to be a fair compromise between size and quality. (Sadly, iMovie has converted all of it to Apple Intermediate Codec on import, which seems to be absolutely impossible to handle on a PC, so I have to do something, since I don't have the original files anymore ...)
On my PC, the files play nicely in QuickTime - they even played in Windows Media Player before I installed QuickTime. (However, I don't see thumbnails/miniatures of the files in Explorer.)
But ... when I import to Elements Organizer, I can neither play the files nor do I see any thumbnails. In stead, I get this error message:
'The selected file cannot be played because your system does not have the requiered compressor/decompressor (codec) installed'
Which I don't understand, since my system plays the files perfectly on itself.
If I try to add these files to a Premiere project, they do play back (but look awful), and I am able to export a clip (which looks OK).
But the whole point for me of using Photoshop/Premiere Elements was to organize my stills and video in the same application.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Regarding the quality in Premiere Elements, do the MOV files have the correct dimensions?
For example, you expect 1920x1080 but are actually getting 1620x1080. That can happen if you forgot to unlock the aspect ratio during conversion on the MAC. You type in 1920 for horizontal width and then type in 1080 for vertical height, but don't see that the horizontal width was automatically adjusted to 1620. And off you go. That can make the video look bad in Premiere Elements, although it shouldn't affect whether you can view the files in the Organizer.
The MOV files shouldn't play back in Windows Media Player on a PC (at least on my system they don't), unless you have installed a codec pack or another application has been installed that installed a quicktime codec that allows playing MOV files in Windows Media Player.
When you are in Windows Explorer with the view set to Thumbnails, if you don't get a thumbnail image for the MOV files, you might be able to fix it with the Codec Tweak Tool. After installing and running it, click on the Thumbnail button and select the MOV option if it isn't selected. http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Codec_Tweak_Tool. I'm not sure that will have any effect on the view in the Organizer, but it's worth a shot.

Process Multiple Files in PSE7 - o/p files to Organizer?

I'm using PSE7.
When I run 'Process Multiple Files' from the File menu in Editor I
can create a new set of jpegs. For example, I can run them through
the Quick Fix processes. If I create new files as output rather than
overwriting the originals, is there a way that I can get those new files
back into Organizer automatically?
And the follow up questions would be
1) Do the original tags all get retained in the new files?
2) Can the new files be part of a version set with the originals?
Thanks for any thoughts!

Thanks!
From what I can tell Process Multiple Files allows input from three places:
1. A folder. 2. Import (like a scanner?) 3. Open files.
So it might be nice if it had a 4th option that would allow files to come out
of Organizer via tags, albums, etc. And if that option was chosen then it
would be nice to save the tags, and create version sets optionally.
But my guess is that from a product design perspective the thinking is
that most people would rather work in Organizer and then perform
actions on a logical set of photos from there. Certainly, that would be my
preference.
What I'd like to do is do be in Organizer, select my images via tag(s),
run QuickFix on them, (all of that I can do), then reduce the file size,
and save the finished product as a version set. Then only thing I can't do
in PSE7 is reduce the file size. Of if there is I don't know how to do
it automatically.
Well, thanks for the help!
