I have photoshop elements 11, so far hate this product, I have a color picture, attempting to select color, by changing to b

I have watched youtube videos on how to do selective coloring for a picture, went to the photoshop elements forum, it appears my photoshop 11 is set up differently than any of the videos I have watched, so therefore, I am unable to follow the directions that are given.  I am also told  bo support forum is available for 11 anymore.  I have owned the product for a year and I have many hours of frustration but no desired results.  Can someone please contact me .  Thanks

Hi,
This is a user to user forum, not Adobe, but there are many here that can probably help you.
To start with, could you give us the link of the video that you are trying to follow so that we get a better understanding of what you are trying to achieve.
The editor workspace has three different modes Quick, Guided & Expert (see top of window). Only in expert mode do all the tools become available.

    I would suggest un-installing via the Windows control panel and then download again and re-install. Try an alternative link and validate with your 24 digit serial number - click here for PSE downloads

    The first thing I did was UPDATE. I have all the latest updates available (according to the updater). The Camera Raw Plug-in says it is version 8.0.
    The RAW files are from a Canon T3i. It's a very common camera, I can't believe it wouldn't be supported.

  • I just bought the canon 5d mark iii and my photoshop elements 10 wont read my raw files. I want to buy photoshop elements 13...is this compatible with my new camera?

    I just bought the canon 5d mark iii and my photoshop elements 10 won't read my raw files. I want to buy photoshop elements 13 but want to make sure my camera is compatible with it first. Thank you for your help!

    Photoshop elements 10 should be able to open those files if you update to camera raw 6.7
    Which operating system are you using?
    windows
    Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.7 update for Elements 10
    mac
    Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Macintosh : Camera Raw 6.7 update for Elements 10
    Also, photoshop elements 13 will open those files as well.

  • Photoshop Elements 8 - is anyone having a problem with the screen color ?

         I just installed Elements 8 & the screen color has 2 choices:
    DARK (Black screen with Black & Grey text)
    LIGHT (Dark Grey screen with Black text)
    BOTH of these are VERY difficult to read & some text just dissapears into the background.
    After speaking with the tech at Adobe, these are the only 2 choices (Dark & Light) I have.
    Neither choice is worth the eye strain.
    Is anyone else having the same problem ?
    Has anyone found a solution ?

    Thanks again. I use 125% on a 23" widescreen Acer monitor. The menus display on both the PSE7 and 9 Editor but not on the 7 or 9 Organizer. For both Organizers, I get a blank space where the menu should be - and at the right of that space, the tiny, double-arrow drop-down is nearly invisible. On 7, I slid the Edit/Preferences/General/Appearance/Brightness control to the far right in order to see the drop-down arrows. But even so, clicking the drop-down then scrolling down to select the desired menu is a nuisance. On Organizer 9, I have not been able to find any Brightness or other window-color adjustment in Preferences or in any menu option, so the drop-down arrow is extremely difficult to see. Even if the menus were visible, as with the Editors, the dark grays and blacks of the windows strain my eyes. PSE has some great features, and 9 is beter that 7, but I don't want to use a photo editing app that is visually difficult to navigate. Please let me know if there is a fix for the menu display or the window brightness/color.

  • Photoshop Elements 9 - how to highlight one colour in a black/white picture?

    hi guys
    with which feature can I highlight just one object (one colour) when the rest of the picture is black/white?
    Thanks for your help!

    Open a color image in Full Photo Edit
    On the top menu click Layer >>Duplicate Layer >>OK
    Enhance >>Convert To Black & White >>OK
    Add a layer mask by clicking on the layer mask icon at the bottom of the layers pallet.
    Select a brush and adjust its size, then make sure your foreground color is set to black.
    Gently brush over the area where you want to show the color from the background layer. If you make a mistake change the foreground color to white to erase what you just did, then switch back to black again.
