Be grateful for your help with Photoshop Elements which I have been using for several years.

Be grateful for your help with Photoshop Elements which I have been using for several years. Does Elements need to have access to ‘My Pictures’ on Windows as when I remove Photos from ‘My Pictures’, Elements later, when backing up, gives a message that it is unable to ‘reconnect’ to the same picture on elements. On other occasions when removing a photo from Elements catalogue I also get a similar message when backing up saying ‘unable to reconnect’. 1. Is there a relationship between Elements and My Pictures and is Elements dependant on the Windows ‘My Pictures’? 2. Why does some photos in Elements in some cases cause them to multiply e.g. double; triple; quadruple; and on occasions even more? Is there something I need to do to stop this or an easy way I can remove the multiples without spending hours doing it manually one by one? Am I doing something wrong? My O/S is Windows XP SP2 and windows Vista on my Laptop. I have been using Elements 5 and have just purchased Photoshop Elements 8.0. (Upgrade) and about to install it. Be grateful for any advice as I do enjoy using the program if only I can resolve this issue. I am not a PC wiz and mainly use Elements to catalogue photos from which I compile collections and from them slide shows with music. Any advice appreciated Sonny.t PS Have tried to post this previously but without success so hoping to see message appear and a +response

The organizer doesn't care where you send your photos when you download them via the downloader or where they happen to be when you first bring them in if you use the Get Photos command, but once your pics are in the Organizer, you *must* move them from within organizer or it can't find them. You don't have to use My Pictures at all if you don't want to, but regardless of the folder where you put your photos, if you want them someplace else, you use organizer to do it.

Help with Photoshop Elements 9 Organizer

I need some help with my new Photoshop Elements 9 Organizer.
I have not had previous versions of Photoshop, this was a brand new installation. I had previously used Kodak software which came with my camera to organize and edit pictures.
My PC is approximately 6 years old. I have a 2.2 ghz processor and 1.5 GB of RAM. I am running Windows XP Home Edition, Version 2002, Service Pack 3.
The software seemed to install just fine. I then imported some pictures from my Kodak folders into the Photoshop Organizer. After importing pictures I then received the following error message:
'Elements 9 Organizer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.'
If I remove the pictures from the catalog, I no longer get the error message. As soon as I import any pictures, however, I get the error and the software closes. When I reopen the organizer I get the same error after after about 15 seconds
I have tried the following:
uninstalled an re-installed twice
turned off the automatic backup to photoshop.com
I did come across thread 769749 (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/769749) that offered some advice. Based on that, I optimized my catalog (which was empty), repaired my catalog (which was empty). I also created a new catalog and removed the existing (empty) catalog.
All of these efforts have not worked. Each time I try something, as soon as I import any pictures into the catalog, I get 'Elements 9 Organizer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.'
This is brand new software that I am unable to use.
Adobe, please help.

Answers to following queries would help-
* Are you able to import images into Organizer from folder other than your Kodak folders?
* Is your problem happening for importing from a specific set of folders only?
* Is your problematic folder having any video files in it which you are importing into Organizer?

Help with folder actions

Automator is still a little confusing to me, I have virtually no experience, but wish to have automated emails sent when the contents of certain folders in my idisk/public folder are updated.
First thing that confuses me is I thought automator worked with folder actions, it doesn't seem to for me and am left running an applescript to detect the changes and tell automator to send the email. This seems rather long winded and not what I'd expected.
Second thing I can get what I've done to send emails when items are added to the folder, but not when they are modified/updated which is what I wanted. This is due to my lack of experience with scripting so any help would be appreciated.
What I've got so far is
'....on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
try
tell application "Automator".....'
how do I change this to do what I want ?

Winston,
You need to save the Automator workflow as a folder action plug-in with it attached to the folder of interest. You start this process by selecting the "Save as Plug-in..." command under the File menu. You will then have to enter the name you want to use for the plug-in and select the "folder action" from the "Plug in for:" drop-down menu. An "Attached to Folder:" drop-down menu will appear and you can select one of those presented or navigate to something else by selecting the "Other..." choice (which you will have to do to get to your idisk/public folder).
Once this is done then every time something is added or modified within the watched folder the Automator workflow will be triggered and run. In your case, because the folder is on iDisk, it will only be triggered when you are logged into your iDisk account.

How do I open HELP with Photoshop Elements12?

Hi, I haven't used PSE in awhile and recently bought PSE release 12 so I went through looked at the Users manual, view the Online videos and wanted to check on HELP and the dropdown menu Photoshop Elements HELP (PF1) but nothing happened. I did this is in all three modes (Quick, Guided and Expert) but "help" did not appear so my question is, how do I open HELP with PSE12?
Thanks,
Bob
P.S.- my objective (what I was looking for) were the step by step instructions on how to straighten a photo

To automatically straighten the image and leave the canvas around the image, choose Image >> Rotate >> Straighten Image.
The straightened image contains areas of blank background, but no pixels are clipped.
To automatically straighten and crop the image, choose Image >> Rotate >> Straighten And Crop Image.
The straightened image does not contain areas of blank background, but some pixels are clipped.
If you have a photo with an horizon you can drag a line along it with the straighten tool.
Click Help on the top menu bar for the on-line help files.

Someone please help with Photoshop CS5 opening error

Everytime I try to open Photoshop CS5 on my Macbook Pro, it starts to load and then right after it says "Initializing panels..." it stops loading and an error message error pops up and says "Could not initialzie Photoshop because of a program error." I'm not sure at all what I did to cause this. I have Premire CS5 and After Effects CS5 also installed and those load and work perfectly fine. Photoshop just stopped working all of a sudden. Photoshop is running in 64 bit mode but i also tried to run it in 32 bit mode and that did not work either.
Thank you for anyone that helps.
Here are all my specs:
- Macbook Pro
- Mac OS X 10.5.8
- 8 GB RAM
- ~6 GB left of space on my harddrive
- Photoshop CS5 Version 12.0

That is pathetic little disk space available.
Keep in mind that the OS must share that itty bitty space with Photoshop's Scratch Disk. As a point of reference, I keep a modest, dedicated 160-GB dedicated second internal drive for my Photoshop Scratch Disk alone.

You should be running Photoshop 12.0.2.

Help with an action refreshing script

Hi,
Ive been compiling a script to remove specific actions and load them up again. I work in a team where the action sets are updated regulary and this will make it easier to refresh. The script works great when run from the extendscript, but when called from a photoshop action it can remove the specified set but then does not load it up again. It throws no errors or anything.
Below is the script, any help or ideas would be much appreciated!
var checkstat = false;
var w = new Window ("dialog", "Action Refresh");
var stringOptions = [];
stringOptions[0] = "EFFICIENCY";
stringOptions[1] = "BANNERS & TEMPLATES";
var imagename = w.add ("statictext", undefined, "Please select the action set you would like to refresh.");
w.dropdownlist = w.add("dropdownlist", undefined,"Baseline");
var item
for (var i=0,len=stringOptions.length;i<len;i++)
{item = w.dropdownlist.add ('item', "" + stringOptions[i]);
w.dropdownlist.onChange = function() {
   //Save the selected value in a variable to be used later
   checkstat = stringOptions[parseInt(this.selection)];
w.dropdownlist.selection = w.dropdownlist.items[0] ;
w.buttonGrp = w.add ("group");
var cancelbutton = w.buttonGrp.add ("button", undefined, "Cancel");
cancelbutton.onClick = function() {
   w.close(0);
    checkstat = false;
    return checkstat;
w.buttonGrp.add ("button", undefined, "OK");
w.show();
if (checkstat == false){}
else{
try{
delAction(checkstat); //Delete a specific action based on its name
catch(e){}
app.load(File("Z:/Editing/Actions & Templates/SITECORE/RETOUCHING ACTIONS/" + checkstat + ".atn")); //Load the action based on it's name from a pre-specified path
function delAction(aName) {
    var idDlt = charIDToTypeID( "Dlt " );
    var desc1 = new ActionDescriptor();
    var idnull = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
    var ref1 = new ActionReference();
    var idASet = charIDToTypeID( "ASet" );
    ref1.putName( idASet, aName );
    desc1.putReference( idnull, ref1 );
    executeAction( idDlt, desc1, DialogModes.NO );

So can you suggest what I should do to get the following outcome? I am new to this...
I need the fields for Listing Agent Commission and Selling Agent Commission.
If Listing Agent is checked, need $35.00 deducted from Listing Commission Share to make the Listing Agent Commission.
If Selling Agent is checked, but listing agent is not, I need the $35.00 deducted from Selling Commission Share to make the Selling Agent Commission.
If Both are checked, I only need the $35.00 deducted from the Listing Commission Share, and the Selling Commission Share should Equal the Selling Agent Commission.
If neither are checked, both fields should be 0.00.

I wanted to start a Digital Printing business please help with Photoshop

Hi I wanted to start a digital printing business please help me with photoshop.
I've never used the program before and dont know how to design either. I got the trial edition of the photoshop extended and do I need to take some form of lessons or how do I start learning photo shop to do things like Banners, posters, signage, digital printing in other words...

Before you invest any money in a startup business you MUST make sure you are able to compete with the competition. What you are saying is a bit like - I want to start a bakery but I cant cook and don't know how to use an oven - this might sound negative but try imagine the taste of the cakes....
If you really want to enter into the market your best bet would be to hire a designer/someone who knows about printing/profiling etc as printing can be complex, especially when you bump into technical problems.....You can always learn along side him/her. I don't want to put you off so GO FOR IT!!, but it is tough out there at the moment.

Help with Photoshop Elements, I'm new to it?

So I'm just fiddling around with Photoshop Elements, and I have a picture of a crocodile that I'm trying to turn blue, so I'm using the Smart Brush and Blue Sky effect to change his skin colour.
Firstly, is there an easier way to change the colour of something that I'm missing?
Secondly, how do I control the Smart Brush precisely? The thing is his body is about the same colour as the water so when the brush gets to a certain point the entire image turns blue.
So how do I select the crocodile but not the water?
Thirdly, the brush. I can draw with the brush, but then I get the "wait" symbol and my changes vanish. How do I stop this?
Thanks for replies, and I'm sorry for my noobishness, I just got Photoshop Elements yesterday.

You can make the brush cursor larger & smaller with the bracket keys next to the letter p on the keyboard. This affords more control in making the selection.
Use of the Smart brush tool is probably the easiest way to colorize an object. The tool has a buit-in mask. If you look on the Layers palette (Window>tick layer), the black and white rectangle represents the mask.
Left click on the mask, then access the brush tool (the ordinary brush B) and with a black brush paint over the area where the blue spilled over to the water. If you go too far, paint with a white brush to correct.

Help with Photoshop 2.0.0.16271

Hi, I have a really old copy of Photoshop (v2.0.0.16271). I just bought a new computer and would like to migrate Photoshop over to it. Can I do that? If so, how?

pherley wrote:
Ah, Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 is what I'm running on my old machine.
The new machine will run Win 8.1…
Good grief! I seem to remember that was an old freebie given away with some scanners and digital cameras. In any event it has nothing to do with Photoshop now.
I doubt very much you can get it to work in any modern OS on any computer platform.

Need some help with Photoshop Elements Organizer

I have had this program for awhile now, but have not had a lot of time to spend with it....also on a new Mac.
I am trying to work with the Organizer. First time I tried to import photos from IPhoto, it said there was no media to import....(I have a lot of pictures here). I did some reading of the forums and determined that it might be a bug so I downloaded the update 9.0.3. Now I am getting an error tht says Photoshop Elements Organizer is attempting to import photos from a default folder. If I check OK, it begins to import all of my photos.
Any help on this problem would be most appreciated.
Thanks
Frustrated

The import is working fine. This is a warning message telling you that it is going to import photos and videos from the default folder of your system. Just to inform you about the action it is about to take.
In case you find it not working, you can log a bug to Adobe at:

Help with installing actions PSE9 on Mac

Hi everyone! Thank goodness for support forums! I've been searching all over this afternoon to see if I could just install some simple presets in PSE9--I just got it and installed it on OSX 10.6.
I just can't figure out how to install actions. I've tried a number of things and it seems pretty simple but for some reason nothing is working (and yes, I've restarted PSE, multiple times in fact).
At first I was told to go to Library > Application Support > Adobe > Adobe Photoshop Elements 9. The only file in there is "Presets" which I opened and there was a list of different files for different stuff (such as patterns and gradients). I thought it looked relatively easy because there's an empty folder in there called "Actions" into which I dragged my actions files. That didn't work, so I tried including the 64 x 64 png image with it, still no luck. Another place said that you should go to Applications > Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 > Locales > en_US and there would be a file called Mediadatabase.db3 that I'd have to edit the file name--I don't have that file in there and it's nowhere to be found on my computer.
So long story short, whichever method I try, actions still won't work/show up! I'd really appreciate any help on this. Thanks in advance!

For the first file path, it sounds like you are in the wrong library. You have three library files:
Your username>library
System>library
and the one at the top level of your hardrive. You want the last one.
Mediadatabase.db3 is in there too.

Help with Photoshop Elements 7

Hello,
I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 running on Windows Vista. It will not open and all my photos are in it. Help
Where are the photos stored? Should I reinstall Photoshop Elements 7 if I do will I lose all my photos that are in it.
Thanks for your help.
Dan

Everyone
I am not sure what part of PSE will not open. It is my 72 year old mother who lives in the USA that is having the problem. I was there briely. What I saw was the blue icon on the desktop that said PSE would do nothing when you clicked on it. Same with the menu. She has all her family photos in it so she is very upset.
My understand is PSE 4 is also on the computer. I wasn't there when she installed PSE 7 so who knows what happened.
I think the first step to be done is to find the photos on the local disk.
I sent her a message telling her to look under My Documents Pictures for a Adobe folder and open it and look for the pics there.
My question is should she reinstall PSE 7 if the pictures are there? Does she have to remove it first?
Remember she is 72 years old and not good with computers at all.
Thanks for all your help!
Dan
