Import photos iPhoto - Photoshop Elements

Hello,
I'm using Photoshop Elements 12 trial version. I would buy it but i got one problem with the automatic import function in Photoshop Elements.
On the first start of Photoshop Elements, it asked me if I want to import all my photos from iPhoto. So I did import all photos.
In iPhoto my photos have been organizes like this:
> April (folder)
> Mai (folder)
     - Wohnung (event)
     - Exkursion Werder (event)
> Juni (folder)
> Juli (folder)
      - Exkursion Schweiz (event)
But now in Photoshop I got this:
> 20110908-192729 (folder)
> 20110908-192733 (folder)
> ... (and so on)
Is this really the way Photoshop Elements imports all my photos? Do I really have to organize all my thousands of photos again?

I wanted to use Photoshop Elements Organizer and Editor only and not continue to use iPhoto because it’s very slow.
Do you think it would be easier if I just continue to use iPhoto as the Organizer and use Photoshop Elements Editor as the editor?
Seems there is no way to import iPhoto albums and events to Photoshop Elements Organizer.

First of all, are you certain you want to ditch iphoto permanently? It's not necessary to do that unless you wish. So are you sure that you no longer want iphoto at all?

  • Excluding subfolders when importing photos in Photoshop Elements 10

    In past versions of Photoshop Elements you could exclude subfolders when importing photos from files and folders.  In version 10 the "get photos from subfolders" is greyed out.  I normally do not want to include subfolders when importing.  I only want the top current folder.  Why the change?

    Hi,
    Just a further thought.
    I have now tried versions 9 and 10 on a Windows 7 system and they both work the same. The "include subfolder" box is not active until I select a folder from the right side - selecting one on the left side doesn't activate it.
    Which operating system are you using?
    Did you change operating systems when you changed to PSE 10?

  • Import photos from Photoshop Elements

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/lightroom/using/WS217DEA0F-2A78-4445-89CB-4CED1AFA450E.html

    You don't import photos at all. No importing!!
    Like the help documentation says, in Lightroom you choose File->Upgrade Photoshop Elements Catalog
    If you want to use LR3, then use LR3. If you want to use LR4, then use LR4 and skip LR3.
    Lightroom 5 is not out yet, so you can't use LR5. When it is out, you could upgrade your PSE catalog directly to LR5.

  • Import photos to Photoshop Elements 9 from Canon EOS 500D

    Lately I'm having problem with importing photos from Canon EOS 500D. Elements recognise the camera and return numbers of photos and so on correctly but when I hit 'Get media' nothing happens. The dialogframe stalls and I have to kill it via Windows Activity center. If I copy the files from camera into a file on the computer and the import from there it works ok and the same if I put the memorystick into a cardreader. i have also a Canon PowerShot G9 and there is no problem importing from that camera.
    Where is the problem, in my Canon EOS 500D or in Photoshop Elements 9?
    Ver of Photoshop Elements 9: 9.0.3.
    Firmwareversion of Canon EOS 500D: 1.1.0.
    Windows version : Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit version, servicepack 1.
    Regards
    Ingvar

      If you open the Organizer and press Ctrl+G that will launch the photo downloader.
    Is your 500D recognized as a device when connected to the computer?
     

  • Importing photos into PhotoShop Elements 9

    Hi. Im very new to photoshop software. Any software for that matter
    I have about 15000 photos in windows gallery that i initially imported into PSE. But since doing that, as PSE was soooo slow, i went back to windows gallery and cleaned up and organised my photos there, putting them in the correct sub folders, thinking they would automatically update in PSE. This doesnt seem to be the case. Can anyone assist me in how to import photos into PSE, and once they are imported, can i delete from windows gallery ? Oh and any otehr tips for a newbie is appreciated
    Thanks heaps!!

    Hi
    Im sorry, but i dont completely understand your answer, although it was a little helpful.
    The first sentence you advised to make sub folders in windows program.
    Im pretty sure thats what ive done. But i thought it would automatically update to PSE. You mentioned it would not. Thankyou for that part.
    I have cleared/re organised my windows picture folders and organised them into sub folders but when i went into PSE the old pic files and folders were showing there - except they advised no picture or data is available.
    So this confuses me as there is too much files in PSE now and i cant seem to get rid of them.
    The other concern is the new photos i have loaded into windows pictures program, how do i get them into PSE. This is really hard to explain in email., so i do apologise if i dont make sense or repeat myself.
    But my main concern is if PSE doesnt update why does it keep old pic folders in the program if nothing is available.
    i tried to uninstall and then reinstall and start teh program all over again with my newly organised windows folders but the old stuff remianed even though i uninstalled the program ????
    Thanks

  • Import images into Photoshop Elements Photo Organizer from Safari

    Hi,
    I recently bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 for Mac. Safari is my default browser. I wonder, has anyone seen an extension or add-on to Apple Safari 5.0 that creates a context dialog that would allow one to import an image from a web page into the Adobe Elements 9 Photo Organizer. Currently, the process of importing into Adobe Photoshop Elements Photo Organizer is both elaborate and tedious. Alternatively, am I simply unaware of some simple drag and drop method to import an image from the web into Photoshop Elements 9 Photo Organizer?

    Hi Jack
    It’s just not possible on the MAC even with the better Firefox open source Web Browser.

  • I have Photoshop Elements 12 for both PC and Mac (I use both). I have a new camera, Nikon D810. I downloaded the latest version of Camera Raw, 8.8. My D810 is listed as a supported camera model. However, when I try to open a raw photo in Photoshop Element

    I have Photoshop Elements 12 for both PC and Mac (I use both). I have a new camera, Nikon D810. I downloaded the latest version of Camera Raw, 8.8. My D810 is listed as a supported camera model. However, when I try to open a raw photo in Photoshop Elements, I keep getting the message "Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw. I have tried reinstalling Camera Raw many times, and have tried to open many different raw files in Elements, and still get the same error message. Please help.

    How did you try to install ACR 8.8.  The only way I know of that works with Elements is to use the Updates Choice on the Help menu.
    There are two charts supplied by Adobe that explain your RAW dilemma.  This one tells you what your camera needs:  http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html   This one tells you what version of software you need:  http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
    In your case, the Nikon D810 needs Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 8.6 or Lightroom 5.6.  (Congratulations on buying a new camera!)
    To get to that level with Photoshop Elements, you will need to replace your Photoshop Elements 12 with version 13.   Adobe caps ACR updates on version 12 at 8.5.
    The most convenient way to get around it without spending any money is to use the FREE from Adobe DNG Converter.  Download and install it from here for FREE:  http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=5855&fileID=5890  Once it is installed you can convert your D810 raw files to an Adobe RAW version with the .DNG file extension that most, if not all, versions of the various Adobe software programs can use.  That includes old versions of Photoshop, Elements and Lightroom.  DNG converter can be used as the tool to move your files from your memory card to your computer, is efficient, will convert in batches and is completely lossless.  There is no risk of any image quality degradation or RAW functionality.

  • Why can't I print a full page photo in Photoshop Elements 10???

    Why can't I print a FULL PAGE PHOTO IN PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS VERSION 10, (letter size 8.5 x 11?)  I have tried resizing, cropping and anything else I can possibly think of to no avail!!! VERSION 7 was so easy just print (fit to page)! I'am pulling my hair out trying to accomplish this! If anyone can tell me how to do it I would be eternally grateful! Thanks Julie
    P.S. I can't even print a 8 x 10 properly!

    Sarah, my printer drivers are updated! This problem seems SO COMPLICATED when it should be so easy!  It's like the more advanced these programs get the less you can figure them out!!!!  I'am ready to offer a reward to fix this!!! The stress of trying to figure this out is making me crazy!

  • How can I edit a photo in Photoshop Elements and have the edit appear in Windows 7, My Pictures?

    In Windows XP Pro, any edit I made to a photo in Photoshop Elements 10 appeared automatically in that photo in My Pictures.   This does not happen in my new Windows 7 computer.  Can I change that and have the edit from PE10 appear in My Documents/My Pictures?

    When you finish editing choose:
    File >> Save As
    Then choose a file name and folder and save.

  • Deleting a photo from Photoshop Elements 11 editor

    I deleted a photo from Photoshop Elements 11 organizer. How do I delete it in Photoshop Editor?

    Nothing is actually "in" the editor. It's just like most other programs you might use to open a file, not like organizer that's making a database of your photos.  Just close it there, either from the image window or tab's close button, or by pressing ctrl+W (command+W on a mac).
