Hello,
Is it possible to import a cataloque with the extension .psa from the old "Photoshop Album 2.0"? I have over 10,000 foto's with adjusted date and time (scanned from negatives etc) and with tags of people, places and events.
Not knowing this prevents me from bying PSE ....

How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12?

How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12? Do I restore from a backup? I have over 12,000 pics ( a good portion with multiple versions) and don't want to lose captions and metadata. Thank you in advance for your help.

If this is on the same computer just install PSE 12. It should find your old catalog and upgrade it to PSE 12. If for some reason it doesn't, then go to file>manage catalogs, find your old catalog and tell PSE 12 to convert it.
If this is a new computer, then yes, full backup and restore.

Importing photos and videos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements or Premiere Elements.
http://adobe.ly/QAckAp

The title implies "importing photos & videos from previous versions" and only deals with "Organizer". It does not mention if regular "JPG" or other formats need to change. It does not discuss if images have been moved from one location to another folder or directory. It does not discuss any issues of previous versions or backward compatability of formats.

Retrieving missing keyword tags from a previous version of Photoshop Elements

I just purchased an upgraded version of Photoshop Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12, but after all my photos were converted to the new version, all of my keyword tags from the previous version are not showing. How do I retrieve them?

Thank you so much. I had tried to use both of those buttons, but I didn't know that I had to use them in that order in order for the tags to show up, and I couldn't find the answer in the Adobe help section, either. Looks like all my tags are there and the problem is solved. Thanks again.

Importing photos from a CF card | Learn Lightroom 4 | Adobe TV

In this move Chris Orwig explains how to set up the import preferences in Lightroom and import select images from a compact flash card. Chris discusses how to evaluate photos before import and determine which photographs are the best, and explains the different methods that can be used for importing images. He also shows how to change file settings during import, from adding metadata to organizing and renaming files.. The movie also demonstrates the value of making a second copy of imported images and reviews the benefits of the DNG format .

In this video it says importing as a dng file saves space as it has lossless compression, so the files size should be smaller, correct?
When I compare an imported dng file to my Canon cr2 files downloaded directly from the card, the dng files are about 10 mb larger, not smaller. Why?

How can i save my importing photos in iPhoto but edit in photoshop elements 11?

how can i save my importing photos in iPhoto but edit in photoshop elements 11?

You have two options:
1. Set PSE as your external editor for iphoto and send the photos from iphoto. Save (not Save As) without changing the name or format and iPhoto will remember the original + the last edited version. (To get back to the original you will have to lose the edits, though.)
2. Export the photos from iphoto, work on the copies, make all the changes you want to name and format and then reimport the edited versions to iphoto as new files. This lets you save as many different versions as you like.

Disinstall previous versions of Photoshop Elements?

Starting with Photoshop Elements 8 I always upgraded the software to now PE 11 (following the instructions, I never disinstalled the previous versions). When running, the program (both, organizer and editor) is incredibely slow. Looking at the computer task manager, I notice that all previous versions of Photoshop Elements are still running (starting from the version 8) - in fact, i never disinstalled them. Question 1: is it normal? how can I prevent this? Question 2: if I now disinstall the versions 8-10, do I lose any data from version 11? (e.g. catalog) Thanks.

My guess is that what you are seeing in the task manager is the downloader for all versions. That should not explain any slowing down. Try going into the previous versions and disabling the automatic start of the downloader. Only the most recent downloader task should remain.
Two reasons may explain the sluggishness : try disabling all autoanalyzing features in the Organizer - and using the 'optimize' option in the catalog manager. That may require some time, be patient.

How do i get photos from iphoto library over to photoshop elements for editing?

how do i get photos from iphoto library over to photoshop elements 10 for editing?
this is an iMac that I just got so its all new to me...
thank you

If you set PSE as external editor, be sure you pick the right file, which is not by any means the logical choice. You want this one:
You can also export the photos from iphoto, edit them and save them under new names and reimport the edited photos as new files. This is more trouble, but lets you save as many different versions of your image as you like (iphoto only remembers the last edited version + original).

Burning my camera imported photos from iPhoto (Lion version) to CD??

I want to burn my photos that I transferred from my camera to iPhoto onto a CD. I want the photos on the CD to open up on a windows computer because my relatives have PCs. How do I burn them onto a CD so I can give the CD to my relatives and they can have copies of my photos? I'm new to iPhoto (Lion version) and don't know where my actual picture files are stored. All I see in the Finder is "Pictures" then the iPhoto icon and it opens up iPhoto. I don't want that. I want to see the ACTUAL picture files so I can transfer them to a Burn Folder and burn them to a disc. In previous iPhoto versions there used to be two folders in the iPhoto folder called "Originals" and "Modified" where all the imported photos were contained as actual files you could open (i.e. with Preview, etc) or burn onto CD. What happened to those folders in the new Lion version of iPhoto?
Any help would be great appreciated as I'm worried I won't be able to make CDs of my photos.
I have a Lion OS X on a MacBook Pro 15".
Thanks so much!

1. Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and eport them to a folder on the Desktop. Burn that with the Finder. Result: a disk with the images that you can share with any OS.
2. This has always been the way to do this.
3. Upgrading to Lion has nothing to do with the changes to the iPhoto Library. Since iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
Want to look inside: Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Standard Warning: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things,, deleting them or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
As an FYI: There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
All of the above are a: faster and b: safer than crusing the Library folder.

Can someone please tell me how to import a photo from my iPhoto library into Photoshop Elements 11. o library

Can someone tell me how to import a photo from my iPhoto library into Photo Shop Elements 11. When I am in Photo Shop Elements and I go to import the only option is to import from a camera. I want to import a photo from iPhoto. If I can't figure this out Photo Shop Elements is totally useless to me.

Not sure what you are trying to do
If you want to use PSE as an editor for iPhoto then set it in the iPhoto preferences (you need to search the forums for the exact settings - they are not obvious)
The general answer to yoru question is to import a photo form iPhoto to any other program is to select the photo in iPhoto and export to the desktop and import from there
Please explain what it is taht you want to do

How do I prevent all my photos from my camera going to Photoshop Elements 10? I only want them to first go to my computer.

??

Hi,
Since you are new to Photoshop Elements I think that you would benefit from learning more about tags and albums.
In your case you could allow the new images to be imported into the organizer, add tags to all the images and then filter the view to see only the ones you want to see, There is not much of a overhead to a photo being imported into the organizer. As I said before, a copy of the photo is not saved within the organizer, just a link to. The only extra information stored is the link saved in the database.
One word of warning. If you have imported an image into the organizer, do NOT delete, move or rename the photo by any other application. Others often ignore this rule and end up with missing files.
If you need further help, then ask away.
Good luck, enjoy
Brian

Can I select multiple photos from iPhoto to edit in Photoshop Elements?

From iPhoto I am wanting to select all the photos from an event or album to edit in Photoshop Elements to avoid having to switch back and forth between the two. I have PSE set up as the external editor in iPhoto. When I have the photos selected in iPhoto and click the edit button, the most photos that will show in the PSE project bin is 4. I can go back to iPhoto and select more and they will be added to the existing photos in the project bin, but again I am trying to avoid having to go back and forth, and want to be able to edit one event/album in one sitting. I've tried highlighting each individual photo within an event, and also just the event, but still the max is 4 photos. It seems when I did this a couple months ago it worked fine, but since it is not doing it now I am questioning whether I imagined the whole thing! Is there a way to have more than 4 photos at a time? Thanks in advance for all help provided.

Hi, cyndy. Welcome to the discussions. No, 4 is the largest number you can send to PSE at one time. (This is an iphoto limitation, incidentally, not a PSE limitation.)

I tried to copy 2,000 photos from iPhoto (v9.2) to Photoshop Elements 13 Organizer. It looked like they all copied, but then I got a crash report that the program had unexpectedly quit. I can't get back in to remove any photos. What do I do now?

I have repeatedly tried to re-open PE13 Organizer with no luck. The first time there was a message that the catalog was being organized and then it crashed. From that time on, I only get a crash message that it unexpectedly quit. How can I get the photos off the organizer so I can open it back up again? Thanks!
zna2212

zna22121,
Close computer down, and restart. If it does not work, it should, then re-install. But, do not attempt more than 200 at a time it just cannot handle it ?
Good luck
Ps. I just dislike Organiser, (it is too slow, and disorganised) you can go from PE 13 Editor ( My wife tried it and went back to PE 6 ) and Process Multiple Files only 200 at a time. in Photoshop Elements, Organizer may handle it ?
We often do video production stills of 2,000 from PE 6 and we know it works ,when you use the images in Adobe CS5.5.2 Premiere Pro..for HD & Blue -ray transfers.. It is very easy ?
