Help with photoshop elements 8 mac and printing photos

Here is my issue and I had the same problem with the trial aperture 3. My photos from iPhoto 9 print out nice glossy frame worthy pictures on my 4x6 photo paper. However PSE 8 prints out the same photo with poor quality and streaky lines. iPhoto print outs seem to take almost a minute to print out, and PSE photos take like 20 sec so Its not making second pass or perhaps it doesn't know its printing to glossy photo paper?
Its not the printer since I am getting awesome photos from iPhoto 9, anyone have similiar issues like this.
Other then printing I'm very impressed with PSE 8 for the mac.
Thank you
Matt

Thank you Barbara, that was it. Printing out great photos from PSE now.

  • Barbara Brundage, can you help with PS Elements 11 and Epson R2000 printer issue?

    Seeking help with PS Elements 11 which does not work with Epson r2000 printer.  Epson tech support could not fix, said it is PS e11 problem.  Receive prompt on PS e11 screen when I try to print stating "not compatible or settings are not correct.  Have set PS to manage color and printer manages color to off.  Would appreciate any suggestions.  Thank you.

    Hi,
    Sincerely appreciate your help.  Running Windows 7 on a  Dell XPS420.  System has been very stable for years.  Before purchasing the Epson r2000, I owned an r1800 which was an excellent printer but after seven years started to exhibit paper feed problems.  The r1800 worked with all applications and I was well satisfied with the saturation, contrast, etc. printing mostly 8x10 and 11x17 prints. 
    Thank you for the information about the # of installs for PS E11, will try uninstall/reinstall this morning.
    Will let you know how things go.

  • 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, 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.

  • What are the problems with Photoshop Elements 10 and  iPhoto in Mountain Lion?

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and would like to install it on my new iMac with Mountain Lion. I have read about compatibilty issues with iPhoto.  Is there a way to correct this or is PSE 11  a better option? 

    Can I suggest posting this question in the iPhoto forum?  There are some true iPhoto wizards there who probably know the answer to your question.

  • Need help installing Photoshop Elements 13 and Premiere Elements 13

    I have a Dell Precision M4800 running 64-bit Windows 7.  Yesterday I purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 and Premiere Elements 13.  I did not have a trial version of the product.  I followed the download instructions and used links sent in an email.  I used the Adamai/Akamai (sp?) download manager.  The downloads took nearly three hours.  Following downloads of the big files, I had to refresh/restart to initiate the .exe files download.  That's the background info.  There is an Adobe Photoshop Elements icon on my desktop but it does not open either program. A window opens with two folders  PSE 13 and Readme.  When I click on the PSE 13 folder, another window opens with four folders: DEPLOY, PACKAGES, PAYLOADS, RESOURCES, and two applications: OEM and Set-Up.  I presume that Set-Up would be the installer but it has 0 KB and when I click on it says "Set-up.exe is not a valid Win32 application."    How do I proceed from here?  This lengthy download process and problems are the pits.  I really need another brain for this.

    I am in the same situation as TheaBaker is up to the point where I went through the lengthy downloads, I have the serial numbers available to both Photoshop13 and Elements13. I click on the http://.........win64.exe and I get a message that states the following.
    The file archive part of Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 is missing. You need all parts in the same folder in order to extract Adobe Photoshop Elements 13. Please download all parts.
    Does this mean I have to re-download both Photoshop13 and Elements13?  GASP!!
    Adobe could make this a lot easier!!  Poor customer service.

  • HP Deskjet 9650 with Photoshop Elements 7 and Windows 7 not printing

    I have a new Windows 7 computer and installed Photoshop Elements 7.0 on it, which works fine, except I cannot print.  I did the installation instructions to use the alternate driver 9800 and can print 8 1/2 X 11 Word documents, but I cannot print a 12X12 scrapbook page to save my soul.  The resume print button keeps blinking and it spits it out blank.  Any help?
    I hope I do not have to get a new large format printer.

    I just accomplished this without any real problems and am now running with my same license on the newly rebuilt PC.  Here is what I did ...
    Originally my PSE7 configuration was set up last year on new Intel I7-based PC running Vista 64 bit version with a retail copy of the PSE7 software, i.e. not the upgrade version.  Once that was setup I imported my catalog from the older Adobe Photoshop Album on my previous system.  That put me at the place you are now, i.e. PSE7 on Windows Vista.
    For this upgrade I puchased the upgrade version of Windows 7 and an additional second disk drive.  I installed Windows 7 onto the clean drive, giving me a dual-boot system for either OS.  While booted on the Vista drive, I used the easy-transfer method to write a backup of my Vista files to an external disk drive.  I then rebooted into the Windows 7 drive and used the Easy-transfer tool to reload the files from the external drive. (note; this easy-transfer included >200GB of music/video/image files so it ran for several hours for each phase of the transfer)
    Once I verified the directory structure on the new Windows 7 setup, only then did I do the installation of PSE7.  That wnet flawlessly and relicensed without any problems.  Next I was able to open up my catalog in organizer and all of the images were intact.  Since then I have had no issues with the configuration.
    So bottom line is you should be fine doing the upgrade regardless of whether you do the upgrade like I did to a new drive or an in-place upgrade overlaying your vista environment.  For the in-place upgrade I would strongly recommend you still do a backup of all of your images and their associated catalog(s) to an external drive.  Win7 is a vast improvement over Vista so I'm sure you won't regret the upgrade but I don't trust any vendor's software upgrade procedure, especially Microsoft so please do the backup first.

  • 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 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!

  • Help with photoshop elements 11

    Hello!
    I'm very new to using photoshop elements 11. I use lightroom4 mainly for all my editing. However at a photoshoot this morning I had to take pictures in snow. I didn't notice it at the time until I uploaded them all onto my computer later. I have a "falling snow"effect in almost all my photos. I'm not used to using the editing tools on elements 11. What would be the best way to remove the falling snow from my photos?
    Thank you for your help!

    You can use host of tools but the best way I remember is to use Spot healing tool with content aware option selected in options and click on the areas. It would fill the areas with surrounding and would remove those marks. The otehr way could be to use clone tool.
    Alt click and select an area which you would want to have on these snow marks and click on snow marks.
    The link below should help you http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/retouching-repairing-images.html
    Let me know if you see any issues.

  • Need Help with Photoshop Elements 4 PLEASE!!!

    I had Photoshop Elements 4 on my compuer and used it primarily to download photos from my digital camera.  My computer crashed and I had to have the hard drive reformatted.  I attempted to re-install Photoshop Elements 4 from my CD but it won't automatically load or install.  I checked the list of files on the CD but there is no setup file on there.  I contacted Adobe for help but was told they can't help me as they don't support this product any more.  I paid for a product from them and they can't support me just because it's old???  Can anyone PLEASE help me?  Thank you.

    I'm sorry ... I hope the "print screen" will load here so you can see what I'm seeing: 

  • Help with Photoshop Elements 8 - how to begin?

    Hello there,
    After calling Adobe for help, I was told since the software I have is outdated I'd be charged to even ask a question and was directed to the forum...
    So, I installed Photoshop Elements 8 on my new computer. When I open it, the welcome screen opens up. You know, the screen that has "Organize" and "Edit" on it. Well I have two questions...
    1) When I click on either organize OR edit, nothing happens...the box completely closes and nothing pops up....even after waiting, and trying multiple times over and over again. Maybe there is just something I am just not getting. I am VERY new to photoshop.
    2) How do I access ALL of the photos that I have in my back-up storage?
    Thank you, thank you, thank you in advance!

    Try making a direct desktop icon for each application. Instructions are for PSE9 on Windows but should be similar for PSE8. 
    Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
    Browse to Computer OS C:
    And find the PSE Organizer application in Program Files or Program Files (x86) on Windows 7 - 64 bit.
    Inside the Adobe >> Photoshop Elements Organizer (yellow folder) you are looking for an application file “PhotoshopEementsOrganizer” with six small icons (e.g. representing thumbnails)
    Select it and click OK
    Click next
    Rename by taking out Photoshop Elements leaving just the word Organizer
    Then click finish
    You should now be able to launch directly form the desktop by double clicking on the icon.
    You can set up a similar direct link to the Editor application (.exe file which has the blue PSE icon). As before take out Photoshop Elements just leaving the description Editor and it will show up clearly on the desktop.

  • Help with Photoshop Elements 10 after system restore

    Hi I need some help and guidance. I have successfully installed my Photoshop Elements 10 twice now; once on my own; and following a MS Vista System Restore; with the help of Adobe support . I then worked on it for a day and all was well.
    But unbeknown to me at the time, I had a MS System corruption that was causing Boot issues resulting in a forced Restore of my system and both Restores caused the Photoshop elements desk-top shortcut to disappear and a subsequent PSE10 re-install to fail with the dreaded Data7 , and "Application Shared Technologies" and rollback of Orgainizer and Editor etc etc.
    I now realise that the two events were connected and the Adobe Support Person helped me get PSE10 up and running but it involved a lot of file permission changes etc, which lost me in the process, which was done remotely. PS Great customer support!!
    After sorting out my MS Vista problem due to "Corrupt System" files, I now need to get my PSE10 up and running again; but how?
    Regards John

    Have you tried uninstalling and installing again?
    thanks.

  • Help with Photoshop Elements

    Hello all,
    I have a friend who is using Photoshop Elements 3 on a G5 iMac running 10.4.11. After reinstalling the combo updater (she was already on 10.4.11; I was trying to solve some system glitching), Elements stopped working. The File > New, File > Open, and File > Quit menu options are greyed out. Double-clicking on an Elements file doesn't open anything within the program; however, choosing "Open Recent File" works fine.
    I've tried the basic fixes (I deleted all related files from her user's Library > Preferences, I repaired permissions, etc.). The original disks are not available, so reinstallation is not an option. I logged in as another user, and the issue went away, so I know it's within her user folder. The problem is . . . where?
    If anyone has any thoughts, I'd be very appreciative.
    —Hazy

    Hi Hazy,
    Photoshop Elements (along with some other Adobe products) is extremely sensitive to things like where it is on the disk and what the folder it is in is called. I broke my copy by simply renaming its folder once. Another time I broke it by putting its folder into an enclosing folder. I was able to make it work again by putting it all back in the one true place, deleting prefs, etc. like you did. If you're trying to start it up from an alias, that alias might be causing the problem. I had to make a new alias for it in the dock also.
    If you have not done so, you might try shutting down then starting up, as opposed to just restarting. Also empty the trash if the prefs are still in there, after backing them up (or just zip them and put them out of the way). I did all those things when cajoling my copy into working again, but I'm not sure which exact combination of things did the trick.
    Hope this story helps you, even though it's a long shot since you didn't mention making changes in the Applications folder.
    I'm running PE 4 on Tiger.
