Importing Photos From Photoshop Album To Photoshop Elements 9

I recently transfered about 14,000 photos from Adobe Photoshop Album into a new computer with Photoshop Elements 9 installed.  In Photoshop Album, I often edited my photos and saved the originals.  However, only the edited version appeared on the organizer screen.  With Photoshop Elements installed, a thumbnail appeared for each Album-edited photo on the organizer screen as a version set with tags and photo description in place but no image.  In most cases clicking on the black right-pointed arrow brings up another imageless box (to the right of the previous thumbnail) that is identical to the first one, tags and all. In a few other cases, the edited image appears to the right with tags.  The latter isn't too bad since I can delete the original imageless thumbnail from the organizer. 
I have tried importing a couple of files of photos from the new hard drive into the organizer.  I get the original which is tagged and the edited photos untagged.  I want to be able to bring up my edited photos when I use certain keyword tags rather than the originals so don't have to hunt for them in the organizer.  At the same time, I want to avoid having to retag several thousand edited photos.  Can anyone help.  Thanks for reading this message.

Hi Fred,
I don't recommend using this software for anything other than
cataloging. If you want to move your images you should consider
Photoshop Elements because it is meant to perform this activity. PSA SE
is just a little cataloging applet that would get really confused if you
even tried it. You would have to completely redo your catalog.
Cheers

  • Importing Photos from Pictures Album revisited

    Quite a while ago, I posted a question about my Aperture's lack of ability to import from the "Pictures" folder.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1540299&tstart=0
    I took a close look today, and I solved the problem. I noticed that when I navigated to the Pictures folder, there were only two entries, and neither of them actually existed in my Pictures. Further, when I selected them, Aperture told me it couldn't find specific folders within *the iPhoto library*. Whoa!
    So, somehow, there is a rogue AlbumData.xml file in my Pictures folder. This file belongs in an iPhoto library, but it somehow ended up (accidental drag and drop? iPhoto Library Manager? Maybe I'll never know) at the top level of Pictures. Aperture then mistook my entire Pictures folder for an iPhoto library, and a broken one at that. It did not parse any other folder in the Pictures folder because, well, it was an iPhoto library.
    Solution? Get rid of the AlbumData.xml file in Pictures. Now I can import from Pictures!

    Terence,
    I have a folder called "Panos" containing the photos I want as referenced. When I drag that folder into the "Documents" shortcut in Finder, my path (According to "Get Info" of one of the photos) is
    /Users/nathananderson/Documents/Panos
    In this case, I can navigate to the Panos folder from Aperture and import photos.
    When I put my photos into Pictures, the path is:
    /Users/nathananderson/Pictures/Panos
    And using Aperture, I navigate to the Pictures folder that is in the same level as Documents. Aperture shows me nothing but "Last Import" and "Library". There is no other folder to select!
    When composing this message, I also found out that I have three other folders in my Pictures folder. These other three folders are not Aperture or iPhoto library folders, and they are also unavailable for "Import Photos" from Aperture.

  • How do I import photos from Adobe Revel to Photoshop Elements 12?

    I have Photoshop Elements 12 on my PC, and the Adobe Revel app on my Samsung Galaxy Tablet. How do I import photos taken with the tablet and stored in Revel to Elements?

    Don't do any of that. Just export the photos from iPhoto
    File -> Export
    to folders in the Finder. That's the supported way and has the added advantage that you can use the names you've given to your Events or Albums as well.
    This User Tip

  • Problem importing photos from iphone3G via Adobe Photoshop Elements v7.0

    I have adobe elements v7.0 and an iPhone 3g running the new release
    iPhone OS.
    When I connect the iPhone to upload the photos I have taken on it into
    pe7 the import photos dialog box opens and then shows how many photos
    are there to import. But each thumbnail is blank and I get an error
    message that finally crashes pe7 without importing the photos.
    The same thing happens if I have pe7 open and choose to import photos
    choosing the iPhone as the attached device from the drop down list
    This problem has started since I downloaded the new iPhone OS 3.0 - before then the import into Elements 7.0 worked fine
    Is anyone aware of this bug and a way of fixing it?

    I, too, have experienced the same problem - but without full resolution. I chose to have PE7 automatically download the photos from the phone upon connection/syncing and have continued to experience the "fatal error" message. Even though I cancel the action when the "fatal error" show up (and the phone syncs without further problem), I believe that the conflict messes up something within the iPhone system. For the 5th time (and 3rd phone in 2 months), it appears that every time I try to use the camera shortly after receiving the "fatal" error problem, the phone ceases to work. It works just fine as long as I don't open the camera program. So - I am now trying to figure out how to get the computer(PC)/PE7 to not automatically download pictures upon connection and see if my suspicions are accurate. Any suggestions on that question are appreciated!

  • How do I import photos from a Lightroom Catolog into Elements 7.0?

    Am trying to import my photos from a Lightroom catolog and cannot. I find the Lightroom folder, but the files wont import to Elements 7.0.

    Do you want to  import the photos to the organizer? Then the previous poster gave you the right answer. However, it's not necessary to use the organizer if you already have your photos catalogued in lightroom. Instead, you can set PSE as your external editor and send the photos directly from LR. Lightroom preferences>external editor tab>browse to PSE. Then when you're in the editor or library modules, right click and choose to send the photo to elements.

  • Importing photos from iPhoto 11 into Photoshop Elements 9

    Hi,
    I am trying to import the iPhoto events into Photoshop Elements 9 Organizer. All the photos are imported into one single catalog. How do I import into separate catalogs in the Elements Organizer, just like separate events in iPhoto?
    Regards
    Ajay

    A question for Adobe's Photoshop Elements forum, I would have thought.

  • How do I import photos from my iPhone 6 into Elements 13?

    I connected my iPhone 6 to my computer, clicked Trust this Computer on the phone, and went to Organizer's photo downloader but it is not detecting any devices.  If I click Refresh List, nothing happens.  Meanwhile Windows Explorer recognizes that my iPhone is connected to my computer (which uses Win 8.1).  What am I doing wrong?  Seems like this should work.

    Just curious:
    If you try the Import process via 'From files or folders' instead of from 'Camera or card reader', are you able to see and select the location of your pictures?

    how do you import photos from iPhoto albums on the mac to lightroom 5

    Have you used the built-in migration plug-in? I'm not sure how LR handles iPhoto albums or events. there have been several reports indicating varying levels of success or otherwise, with import.
    See my comments on this similar thread which also has a link to users comments on the LR journal blog.

  • Hi. Migrated photos from Photoshop Album to Phtoshop Elements 13. Lost all tags Any ideas?

    Hi. Migrated photos from Photoshop Album to Photoshop Elements 13. Lost all tags Any ideas?

    I'm not sure but it sounds a lot like the question I posed to the forum a little later today.  It may be that the newer versions of PSE are not compatible with transfering all the Categories, Sub Categories and Tags from versions up to PSE 10.  I am presently using PSE 10 because I couldn't figure out how to save all the organization I have put into Elements over the past 10 years or so.
    I'm hoping for an answer to my question.

  • How can I import photos from iPhoto-library to edit in Photoshop CC? - and save it back to the iPhoto-library?

    How can I import photos from iPhoto-library to edit in Photoshop CC? - and save it back to the iPhoto-library?

    How to access iPhoto images for use in Photoshop
    1. In the Finder, navigate to Users > [user name} > Pictures > iPhoto Library. 
    2. Control-click the iPhoto Library file and choose Show Package Contents.
    3. A Finder window opens that shows the contents. The Masters folder (or called Originals folder) contains all of the photographs that are in iPhoto. 
    Photoshop cannot access this folder, but if you make a duplicate of the folder, the dupe will be accessible -- so:
    4. Control-click the folder named Masters (or Originals) and choose Duplicate. 
    5, Drag the duplicate folder which is named "Masters copy" or “Originals copy” from the iPhoto Library Finder window to the Desktop.
    6. Open images in Photoshop from file on desktop.
    7  Rename the folder and move it elsewhere (probably to the Pictures folder), if desired.

  • I cannot import photos from my camera card into light room 5v or photoshop

    i cannot import photos from my camera card into light room 5 or photoshop

    Launch Lightroom and from the menu go to:
    Lightroom >> Preferences >> general (tab)
    Ensure there is a checkmark in the box “show import dialog when a memory card is detected”
    Then quit Lightroom and insert the card again. Does LR launch ready for import?
    If not, check that your card is mounted. You should see an icon on the desktop.
    Launch Lightroom and click the import button (bottom left)
    Expand the tree in the left-hand column of the import dialog e.g. from Mac HD >> Users….down to desktop.
    Highlight your card.
    Choose “Copy” at the top and either a named folder on the right or automatic dated folders.
    Then start the import.

  • I cannot import photos from my camera card into light room 5 or photoshop

    I cannot import photos from my camera card into light room 5 or photoshop

    There is no "into". LR and PS just reference your photos on the hard drive.
    When you import your photos "into" the LR catalog, LR can copy the images off your memory cards to the hard drive if you have not already copied them, but the photos are referenced by the LR catalog by the path and filename for the files.
    If you are having problems getting the images off the cards, what steps are you using and what error messages are you getting?
