Importing photos in elements 12

I just downloaded photoshop elements 12 and imported photos from my picture library. The photos imported but lacked the image numbers that were set by the camera. Can these #s be imported also? I was using the #s to mark the photos I wanted to put in a special folder so with out them I would have to start over in elements

The numbers are there, assuming you mean the file names assigned by the camera. Just go to View>File Names.

  • Importing photos to Elements on a Mac laptop

    If I try to import photos from my Canon camera to Elements, open or not, the Mac opens its app 'Photos'. The only way I can get the photos from the camera to Elements is by importing them to 'Photos', re-exporting them to the desktop, then importing them from the desktop to Elements.
    There must be a better way.

    A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop or Ps Elemernts and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,

  • Trouble importing photos into Elements 8 under Windows 7

    Elements 8 is rejecting jpeg photos I am trying to import from SD card or DVD. The photos were taken with different cameras, and ones I've imported from successfully before. It labels the files as "corrupted", or "organizer doesn't recognize this file format" or other strange messages. I've successfully  imported these files into Picassa, and Windows explorer - they are plain jpegs.

    So right after posting the question, I decided to try to first import into the file system and then import from the file system, and that worked. But its a pain because it changes my workflow.
    A possible workaround: You could use Windows Live Photo Gallery to download into your folders; the WLPG downloader is pretty good (WLPG is the version you download from Microsoft, not the one built in to Vista).  Then you could use the Organizer's File > Watch Folder feature to automatically import new photos that get added to your folders by the downloader.
    Do you use lightroom? Do you recommend it?
    I don't use Lightroom, but it has a very good reputation.  I know some other posters here use it.

  • How can I import photos from iPhoto '09 to Elements Organizer 10 while keeping the tags attached?

    I have spent a ridiculously long time tagging photos in my iPhotos but I would now like to transfer all my photos to Elements Organizer and preserve all the work I had done.
    From Adobe's help website (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/elementsorganizer/using/WS73c05ee9864270ea-417df45c129593bfa05 -8000.html) it says I can import the tags along with the photos but does not explain how:
    "Elements Organizer 10 supports importing photos, along with their associated captions, tags, and ratings, from iPhoto. You also have the option to import information such as events and albums to maintain the organization of your library"
    When I follow the steps outlined on the website my photos are imported but there are no tags attached to them. I am particularly interested in keeping my facial tags but I suppose it would be useful to know how to keep other keyword tags and ratings as well.
    There was a previous question put out on the forums similar to this but it was unresolved and the person decided to just leave everything in iPhoto. I really would prefer to transfer all my photos to Elements Organizer. I don't like the way iPhoto organizes photos but I had to deal with it for several years before I bought Elements Photoshop with built-in Organizer.
    Please Please help!
    Many thanks

    You don't import one library to another.  Just copy the library from the iBook to the Pictures folder on shout new MacBook Pro. If you have another library already on the MBP rename it so you don't overwrite it with the old library.
    Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select the newly copied library and let iPhoto convert it to the new version.
    Do you have photos in the library on the new MacBook Pro that you want to combine with the older library?

  • 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.

    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.

    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.

    Anyone having problems with Elements organiser 13 when try to import photos from Mac photos which was an upgrade from Iphotos on 9th April 2015. Before when I was using Iphotos all was ok...

    hi I have been trying to do this, but PE13 comes up with a fail message saying that file types are not supported, am only trying to import jpeg files so can't understand this.  So far have been unable to use PE13 at all, any ideas anyone please!

  • Can't import photos from iPhoto to Elements 9 Organizer

    I am running Elements 9 Organizer on my MacBook Pro. When I perform the command File/Get photos and videos/from iPhoto, I get the error message, "There is no media to import from iPhoto." In fact I have thousands of photos in iPhoto that I would like to import to Organizer so that I can edit them in Elements 9.
    I also cannot edit photos in Elements by setting it as the default editor in iPhoto. When I do this, it opens Elements but does not open the photo from iPhoto.

    When I do this, it opens Elements but does not open the photo from iPhoto.
    That usually means you have chosen the wrong file as your external editor. In PSE 9, you want this one. The other is an alias to the welcome screen and choosing that one causes the behavior you've described:

  • I just upgraded my old versionj 3 of photoshop elements to v13  when I import photos they are not imported in the same order they are mixeds up

    hi can I have a reply to above question: I just upgraded my old versionj 3 of photoshop elements to v13  when I import photos they are not imported in the same order they are mixeds up

    In the documents screen - sorry, new to this so not sure if that's the right terminology... Basically the screen showing all documents, if you drag down, there should be two options at the of of the page: Date and Name. Select Name and your list should now be in alphabetic order.
    Hope that helps.

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • Cannot load Photoshop Elements 10. 1st (of 3) disks only gives me option to import photos and videos, not to install. How can I install?

    Cannot load Photoshop Elements 10. 1st (of 3) disks only gives me option to import photos and videos, not to install. How can I install?

    Are you sure that:
    1. You have the correct disc for your operating system? You have both mac and windows versions on the discs. If you have a mac you want disc 3, not disc 1.
    2. PSE is not already installed?
