Have used Photoshop Elements and Album 2.0 for years

Album and Elements 2.0 have been good for my use for many years. Have now upgraded to a new Windows 8 computer and migrated data and programs from a 10 year old XP system. What will happen to my 7,500 photos if I upgrade to PSE 11? Took a long time to reconnect the photos after the migration.

  If you have successfully installed PSA2 on W8 then it will be possible to convert your catalog to the PSE11 database format, as part of the installation process.
Why not download the 30 day free trial and give it a try.

    First of all, I would have to say that getting in touch with you is a nightmare and I am not at all happy that I can't just email or live chat with someone who can help!  I am not a technical person, I just want to be able to use Photoshop Elements and get on with it. I bought Photoshop Elements via Amazon some months ago and it worked fine.  I then got a message that advised that the trial version would expire, which it subsequently has (I have been trawling your site for weeks and weeks trying to find an email or phone contact to get some assistance).  Relucltantly, I am now typing this - and I suspect it will not help in the slightest!  I bought the FULL not TRIAL edition of Photoshop Elements and I have contacted Amazon who confirmed this, but say I need to contact you.  Can you please let me know how I can resolve this?  Louise A Fraser

  • I have downloaded Photoshop Elements and all went well.  When I went to open, it opens fine but is unreadable.  I have a Mac and my flash player is up to date.  Can you please tell me what I am missing?

    I did try to uninstall and reinstall.  It messed up my computer.  I had to "RESTORE" from the prior days backup.  This was not helpful at all.  I'm used to losing all my stuff when I connect to iTunes, that's a whole other issue, but now I'm completely banned from any updates to my phone at all.  Geeze.......

  • Novice evaluation of cs anything have used photoshop elements

    in photoshop elements there are quick fixes for common problems that do not seem to be in cs6 so find it necessary to use photoshop elements in addition.
    however cs6 has finite abilities that are not in photoshop.  the magnetic lasso tool in cs6 is much more responsive compared to photoshop elements - the magnet is out of control in photoshop elements.  still the magnetic lasso could be improved in cs6.  if I click a series of points in a row; that is where I want the cut to be.  can understand when I have few points that magnetic lasso doesn't follow along.
    color corrections in cs6 are superior to any other photo editing software (ARC, iphoto, aperture, nero are some I know better than cs6)
    I use adobe products everyday and iphoto a few days a week.  
    and I am a novice:  today I found the easy straighten photo when cropping a photo.  NICE graph for lining up photo. 
    at this time I need cs6 over any product for old photo scans that have faded or become discolored or damaged; once that project is completed I probably won't want to step back down.
    today: sad this experience can't last due to fund constraints.  cs6 is a program I would like to have; cannot justify the price for my editing.

    your data files should be ok.
    go ahead and download and reinstall.

  • Using Photoshop Elements and iPhoto together | Learn Photoshop Elements 8 for Mac OS | Adobe TV

    Learn how to use iPhoto to manage the photos you work on in Photoshop Elements. Set Elements up as an external editor for iPhoto so that you can open images in Elements to edit them. Revert to an original image if you don't want to keep your edits, or have the edits reflected in iPhoto.

    Is there an equivalent tutorial for Elements 9 ? I thought I had all my problems solved when I found this tutorial - but it doesn't allow me to save the edited file back into iPhoto. Can anyone help please

  • Using Photoshop Elements to scan but iphoto for slideshow

    I use an Epson V600 to scan old photos, which runs on a Photoshop Elements program. I am creating a slideshow for my grandmother's 90th birthday party, and I prefer to use iphoto for the slideshow. What is the best FORMAT for the photos as they are scanned, and how do I transfer to iphoto? Thanks for the help!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Scan the photos and save them in a folder. When you're finished scanning import that folder into iPhoto. This will give you just one Event with the photos in it. If you import each photo after it is scanned you'll end up with a separate event for each photo which can be a bit of a pain.

  • Can I use Photoshop Elements to create digital flyers for sales & marketing?

    Looking to create digital flyers to be emailed and used on social media ads.  Is photoshop elements a good tool for this?

    It's certainly possible to do it, but there are many other programs, like almost any desktop publishing program, that will give you more options more easily. PSE is at its best as a photo editor, not a page layout program.

  • Using photoshop elements 12 as external editor for lightroom 5

    When I have been in lightroom....then used elements as external editor....the photo does not save back to light room...how do you do that?
    thanks

    This issue has been reported numerous times in the last few months on this forum and the elements forum. Surprisingly the solution for some has been to save the file in PSE with the "save as" command instead of the "save" command. I know, this is the opposite of what "they" say but after seeing that solution in the forum several months ago I started following this rec and have not had a problem since, when before I too was having problems with the edits in PSE being saved back to LR 5.3. I don't know whether this is a bug in LR or PSE but there have been enough reports that it clearly is an issue. Adobe, however, is strangely silent on this. Imagine that! Anyway, give that a try and see if that works. Can't hurt.

  • Can I use Photoshop Elements 8 to create menus for Encore Project?

    Is there a way to create menu buttons in PS Elements 8 for an Encore project or do I need to upgrade to PS CS5?
    Thanks!

    I have never used PSE, but my understanding is that it can only edit Button Layer Sets, and NOT create them. This might have been added in PSE 8, but one would have to check.
    Now, PS (the big-brother) has no such limitations, and I use it for Menu creation.
    One workaround, if my first paragraph is correct, would be to do the Menu creation, sans Buttons, then Import into Encore and use the Menu Editor to add Buttons from the Library. Just choose a Library Button that is somewhat close to what you want. Now, PSE should allow you to edit that created Button Layer Set.
    As Ann mentions, be very, very careful with the necessary naming conventions. Those are critical.
    Good luck,

  • When i try to use photoshop elements 12 the ALT key for cloning brings up a brush pallet instead of letting me clone

    when i try to use the ALT key in cloning it just brings up a brush pallet instead of letting me clone can you advise me what to do as i have been trying for days @@@

    No you don’t need to uninstall iPhoto but are you trying to edit a photo from the iPhoto Library?
    If so export a copy from iPhoto to the desktop and then open that copy in the Elements editor.

  • Is the Photoshop Elements and Premier elements bundle a one year subscription? Or do I only need to buy it once?

    Is the Photoshop Elements and Premiere bundle a one year subscription? Will I need to buy it again eventually?  As a student, I would like to only have to buy it once and be done.

    What 99jon said.
    There is no subscription version of Elements. Are you perhaps confusing Elements with the Adobe Creative Cloud?

    g.n.a.s
    If your program is Photoshop Elements, you have posted in the wrong forum. Somehow your thread got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
    If this is the case, please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator to see your thread here and move it from here to there.
