How to relink offline pictures in Elements 7?

When I started my Catalog in Album (back in 2001) I have put many pictures offline on CD. Relinking to the original was very simple; just clicking on the pic, loading the CD and the software automatically found the original pic on the CD. In Elements however this feature seems to have disappeared. When I click on one of my offline items a relink screen pops up  in which the software proposes to relink to the... thumbnail! The "browse button' won't help, it cannot find the CD drive location at all. The only possibility is to explore the CD with Windows Explorer, but then there is no relink feature. This is what you call progress!
Does anybody know a workaround. The strange thing is that Elements Still has the functionality to put pic's offline. So how to get 'm back?

I think I now have the right output; pls find below. The strange thing is that PSE seems to  notify my F (CD) drive (see below); However, when I open the "reconnect missing files" screen it only shows my internal (C/D/E) drives.

    How do I download my Nikons pictures into Elements?

    Hi,
    Insufficient data to give a precise answer.
    Which operating system are you running on?
    Which version of Photoshop Elements are you using?
    Which camera model are the images from?
    If you are shooting in raw (NEF) format it depends very much on the version of elements and the camera model.
    This might help if you are new to elements

  • How can I find my pictures in element 9 in Windows

    How can I find my pictures in element 9 in Windows so that I can edit them and my new pictures?

    I am not very sure what you may be asking for but in case if you are referring about opening any image in elements then open Editor and then go to "File Menu>Open" . File open dialog will open , just browse to your file and press ok. The picture will get open in elements.

  • How to relink media in CS6

    When I first open a project in PrPro it asks a strange request to relink media.  No files have been moved and all my media is on one hard drive.  I understand how to relink media but this is strange.  It asks "Where is the File "V1-etc, etc, etc?  I've never labeled a clip V1.
    Could this be pertaining to the V1 video track?
    Could this have happened if I updated PrPro, not thinking, with a Premiere Pro CC update on my CS6 program and this is causing the problem?
    I have a timeline in PrPro that was worked on in Resolve.  In the timeline it shows all my clips offline.  But, in my bins, the clip that is shown offline in the timeline is ONLine in my bin.
    How can I relink the media to get it to show correctly in the timeline.
    I have a suspension this is a result of updating something I should not have updated.
    Dan you advise?
    Mandla

    It seems PrPro created a bin as well.   There's no way I'm creating a bin labeled like this.  The one clip that you see is relinked was from me highlighting all the off line clips, choosing that clip to relink in the hopes that all would come online.  This labeling doesn't make sense.  I did have archived timelines labeled The Broken 527, but other than that nothing more.

  • How do you move pictures from one album to another

    how do you move pictures from one album to another?

    Pictures can appear in any number of albums.
    To move from one album to another, add the picture to the new album and then right click on the picture, select Remove from album and then select the album you want to remove it from.
    If you need further help, please let us know which version of Photoshop Elements you are using and which operating system you are running on.

  • How to combine multiple pictures in one picture

    Hi guys.
    Total noob in photo shop here..
    I am very expert on using Paint (HAHA..) but using Photoshop 2014 is my very first time and only thing I know how to use is magic eraser..
    Right now I'm doing a website project and trying to make few pictures for each pages.
    I'm trying to make one picture that has multiple pictures inside. (with some designs.. and look smooth.)
    I have no idea how to use Photoshop and I just simple need to put pictures together to look nice and neat.
    I have attached two picture samples. It would be nice if you could teach me step by step how to make a pictures like that (would be awesome if its even better ^^)
    I appreciate your help and have a nice day.

    If you want to learn these kind of techniques there is a wealth of online tutorials that will help you work this out. Here are a few links that should point you in the right direction:

  • How to change the picture frame size in Lightroom 5 Book

    I would like to control the actual picture frame size when making a Book in Lightroom 5. Or else know the sizes of the different picture frames provided by choosing the different page layouts. That way I can either change the picture frame dimensions to accomodate each photo or change the image size to fit in the offered picture frame. I find that using the software as is winds up cropping the images in unwanted ways. Modifying the picture frame would be my preferred alternative. Appreciate any ideas

    Hi again Tony,
                I have been using Adobe Photoshop 7, Photoshop Elements, Perfect Photo Suite, Photo Studio, etc., changing Image size, placing a picture on a page and then, do a simple last minute size adjustment by using the arrows to stretch or shrink it in place. Things would be a lot simpler if I could do the same thing with the cells in Lightroom 5. Cell pad adjustments do not fill the bill.
    I think we’ve pretty much concluded this exchange. Thanks again for your effort.

  • Deleting pictures from elements

    I have been deleting pictures in elements to make more room on my hard drive and just noticed a box on the screen about deleting also from the hard drive.  Can anyone help me try and figure out how to sort out on my hard drive what pictures I have deleted from elements. Somethng easy and not too time consuming would be nice.  I am assuming that all this work I have been doing to delete pictures has not at all freed up anything on my hard drive.  ugh!
    I have looked at my "pictures folder" and nothing seems to be in folders or have any organization.  Since moving my elements to a new computer I have had to reconnect all my pictures.  Can I organize the pictures in folder and then if I ask elements or reconnect them will it be able to?

    It's really not a good idea to let elements delete the photos in any case. Your camera has its own directory structure that the computer doesn't fully understand. It's preferable to just reformat your card in the camera or delete the photos directly in the camera, rather than letting a computer do it for you.

  • PP CS4 won't relink offline media

    Can anyone help me trouble shoot my Premiere Pro CS4? It would refuse to let me save anything, freeze and make me force quit it over and over, finally it told me to reinstall. So i did but now none of my previous timelines work, the media is all either offline or just not playing when i try to playback. When i try to relink the offline media it tells me the file dimensions are too big. What can i do? This is a big project which needs to be completed urgently and i don't want to have to start over losing weeks of work.
    I'm using a macbook pro and an education version of the adobe masters collection.

    Hi all, thanks for your help but neither of those solutions are working. I have found an autosave in which most of the media is still linked but not all of them and I am still being told that the file dimensions are too large to link, despite being from tapes i captured using premiere pro. While all clips are in the same place as where i edited them, the ones that appear to still be linked are blank and will not play.

        Re: PP CS4 won't relink offline media
        created by Bill Hunt in Premiere Pro CS4 & Earlier - View the full discussion
    Jeff covers two of the biggest reasons that Media is Offline, and why one might not be able to relink to the media. This ARTICLE goes into detail on a few other reasons. The biggest question, and also at least part of the solution, is "why is the media offline?" One of the main causes is that something changed in the Path to the media, which is absolute. Then, when PrPro cannot find that media, it asks "Where is file ____ ?" and the user chooses anything but the Finder to locate that media, then Saves the Project. All media with changed Paths will then show as Offline. However, manually relinking will correct that. In your case, you are failing in that relink operation, so Jeff's suggestions take on even greater importance. Still, by defining WHY the media is showing offline, might be useful in determining how to relink. Good luck, Hunt

  • How do i unlock pictures for my slide show?

    how do i unlock pictures for slideshow? do i have to save them? where?

    Which operating system are you running on?
    Which version of Photoshop Elements are you using?
    If you have made changes to a photo, those changes have to be saved before you can use that photo in a slideshow. Where you save it is really up to you.
    Do you use the organizer and import all your photos into it? Please note that Elements itself does not keep a copy of your photos - you always have control over where the photos are stored. The elements organizer just saves the links to your photos.
    If you have selected a photo in the organizer and then selected edit, the editor will open and you can make your changes. While the photo is open in the editor, it is marked as locked in the organizer. When you have finished editing the photo, save it and the close it in the editor. The lock in the organizer is then released.
    I hope that helps you. If you still have a query, please tell us how you are working and we may be able to provide other advice.
