Lost functions on PSE 6?

I had been using PSE 6 on my old laptop (Windows 7) for years, with no probelm. Now I have a new laptop (Windows 8), and installed PSE 6 on it with my disk. The program mostly works, but the toolbar at the top of the page of the Organizer is missing. Where is it, and how can I get it to appear? I want to be able to load previously-edited photos into the Organizer from my computer files, but there is now no way to do this (or anything else that requires access to functions of the disappeared toolbar!)

Also, if the menu is lacking, you can get a drop-down menu by clicking on the small, hardly visible, icon on the top bar :

Sidebar missing from iCal in Lion - seeking a third party product to restore lost functionality

Apple has removed the sidebar, the always-on list of calendars that required no click.
The shallow popover that appears only when clicked — obscuring part of the calendar before disappearing — is to me (and some others) an unacceptable substitute for working with multiple calendars, especially where calendars are grouped across multiple servers.
I'm aware of third party alternatives to iCal. (Most full-featured calendar interfaces do have an always-on full-height list of calendars. Probably the best known alternative to iCal is BusyCal.)
This topic does not seek alternatives; I do wish to continue using iCal, albeit in a way that is less frustrating than what Apple forces upon users of 10.7.
This topic seeks:
a third party product that will restore lost functionality to iCal.
To any developer who reads this topic: please, I beg you, on my knees, submit your iCal sidebar app — or whatever you wish to call it — to the App Store as soon as you can. I'll gladly pay, and more than gladly help to test any pre-Store development version.
Other readers please note: whilst I'm extraordinarily frustrated by Apple's design decision, this is not an invitation to rant. Let's gain something constructive from this discussion.
If you wish Apple to restore the sidebar to iCal, as an option, then please:
submit iCal feedback to Apple, with your use case; explain why for you personally the limited disappearing popover is a poor substitute; explain how the sidebar will improve both (a) your productivity and (b) your appreciation of Apple's software.
Side note: no category includes iCal, so I file this opening post under Using Mac OS X v10.7 Lion.
Thank you
Graham

the new way
Many things in the new iCal are beautifully designed. I am certain that the new iCal will be enjoyed by people who use the new multi-session screen sharing for Mac OS on iOS (that should be a separate topic).
iCal's aqua popover default may be perfect for people who have only a handful of calendars.
Critically
The new design fails completely to offer an always-on full-height list of calendars — invaluable when working with more than a handful of things.
The screenshot below, taken whilst evaluating BusyCal, shows a subset of my list of calendars (more than the average user, that's why an always-on list is so valuable). In shot: three accounts on a CalDAV server. I have other, lesser used accounts on other CalDAV servers. Also some use of Exchange servers. My own case is extreme but there's a guiding principle for a variety of use cases:
some users need to see the list of calendars all the time.
What's exmplified below has become impossible in iCal 5.0 (1535) in Mac OS X 10.7 (Build 11A511).
I plead with Apple, or a third party developer, to restore the sidebar list of calendars to iCal.
Apple's limitation is acceptable when the user has only two calendars —
— but for some other classes of user, completely inappropriate.
The percentage of users troubled by the loss of functionality may be less than the percentage enjoying the popover, but that in itself does not reduce the trouble, the frustration.
The sidebar was present in 10.4, removed in 10.5. Many users of 10.5 complained.
The sidebar reappeared in 10.6. Removal in 10.7 is almost completely dumbfounding.
I would like to say, "give it time — the more you use it, the more it will be appreciated" but for me this is not true. For some weeks I tried to work with this build of iCal and the more I used it, the greater the frustration. I grew to avoid iCal.
In most ways the feature set of iCal is unequalled. Support for many standards is excellent. The removal of the sidebar is a blight on this brilliance.
I plead with Apple or a third party developer to fix this at the earliest opportunity. I want Apple iCal — but user-friendly, not crippled.

Why all gray in sidebar? Lost functionality!

I've just upgraded (? not convinced I'm seeing an improvement) from 10.6.8 to 10.9.3 and am very disappointed to see that everything in the sidebar is shown in shades of gray. I've used FolderBrander for many years to color code my finder folders and it was great that the folder colors also appeared in the sidebar in 10.6.8. I could group associated folders by color in the sidebar and that made for very rapid and accurate access deep into my folder architecture. I am mourning this lost functionality.
Could someone suggest how I could send this dissatisfaction along to Apple along with a request to restore colors to the sidebar?

As an update, that 3rd party program called SideEffects didn't continue to enable the colors in the sidebar to appear. What I find most interesting is that the original color designations ARE present, it's just that some additional code eliminates them from appearing. Seems like Apple should easily be able to give the user the option whether to stay with the insipid all gray theme with colored tags or to re-enable the highly functional display of colors in the sidebar in a window and in the sidebar in the "save as" windows. There's no reason that we couldn't have both the "tags" (apparently meant for people who don't use the folder hierarchy when saving files to enable them to rapidly find their files again) and the previous nicely colorful "labels". I see that the gray sidebar has been a complaint ever since OS 10.7 Lion, but that Apple hasn't fixed the issue through several major OS revisions..
I feel I've been punished for being very ordered in where I save files on my HD since I made extensive use of the tools provided by Apple in the past: I could color-group subdirectories on my HD within the sidebar to give me very quick access to different portions of the subdirectories I'd made within my Documents folder. I made less use of labels, but also found them to be superior to tags for how I do use them. I have found tags to be of no value to me, at the expense of the loss of something that was of value. I sure hope that Yosemite corrects this — but I’m beginning to have less faith that Apple is even listening to its customers — except for those who use the iOS and not the Mac OS.

Lost Functionality !!! Have both 3.6.13 and 4Beta 9,10,11

Lost Functionality !!!
I installed a number of add-ons before installing Firefox 4 Beta 9 and now I have lost much functionality! I have tried to disable many of the add-ons.I even uninstalled 4 Beta 9 after the beta 10 upgrade was added and went back to 3.6.13 but to no avail.\I am afraid that I am going to have to uninstall the whole mess and start over but I am on a slow dial-up ISP and that is prohibitive because of time concerns. This is one of the main issues : I hover over most but not all links with the cursor and it highlights the link button but when I left click nothing happens and I have tried everything that I can think of so I do not know if it is one of the add-ons or a different problem. I will have to go through my back-ups and see if i have saved a copy of 3.6 somewhere unless someone has an answer to this issue

Have you tried creating a new Profile?

My keyboard (wired) has lost functionality on the music PLAY/PAUSE, FORWARD and BACK, and VOLUME KEYS. They do NOTHING. All else is fine. How can I reassign them correctly? (Don't see those functions listed with System Settings/Keybard shortcuts).

Crayolla,
Try doing a SMC and PRAM resets. Sometimes it takes 2-3 attempts for them to work so be a little persistent if they fail the first time.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Lost functionality with Leopard...

Lost functionality with Leopard upgrade....
1 - AOL for Mac OS X (10.3.7) application: can't access email addresses when writing mail and can't attach files.
2 - Canon's MP Navigator (2.2.2) won't batch scan documents with MP830. Worked fine with Tiger.
3 - Can't mount USB hard drive attached to my airport extreme and when I try the extreme goes offline and I have to restart it.
How about you all. I only used 'em all the time.

I have the same problem.
After upgrade from my Mac Pro to Mac OS X Lion yesterday, the same problem happened described by danhalli.
No connection to the printer over 2101nw. The MAC gets all information if an other computer makes a connection to the print server, so the communication works, however connection cannot be established.
There was no way to fix it. complete new installation from Printer Software or wireless HP Print Server did not help.
Important: all other computer in the network are working fine with the connection manager (MAC and Microsoft PC´s)
All MAC computer are working fine with the SW 10.6.8 . The SW 10.7.2 does not work I hope it will be fixed soon. If you can not print, it takes a lot of time !!!!

HP 2600n Not Printing Correctly and Lost Functions

The 2600n has lost the following functions with the HP/Apple update based on my normal use. Note that all of these were functioning prior to update.
1. Double sided printing not selectable; no double sided printing available
2. Cannot print 2 pages on a single sheet in draft; result is a print that is unreadable
In addition to the above the menu for the print has been rearranged in a way that makes it less easy to use. For example there is now an extra step to select draft (600DPI).
+How do I get rid of the download and install of this update and revert back to the old version which worked+ (for me and others it now appears).

Thank you to those who replied. I fixed this problem by deleting all the downloaded software and other software related material from the HD. I removed everything. I then proceeded to treat this as a new printer and used the HP site to download relevant software and driver for the 10.5 version. Contrary to popular opinion this printer will work on 10.6 - 10.6.3 using the 10.5 driver and software.
I did note that when setting up the printer in system preferences I had to select the previous version of the driver for HP. The update was still on the HD despite my (I think) thorough removal of all items HP (except scanner).
The printer is now functioning as before. I have complained to HP in two different formats who still say the printer is not supported by 10.6 despite it being clearly listed to the contrary. I also told them the new menu window was terrible. To no avail I'm sure but at least I informed them. As should others if they are having any problems.
Thanks again.

Can the people recognition function in PSE 9 be configured to look for a specific person?

HI All:
I have over 100k photos in my library. I'd like to have PSE 9 search through these images and identify only my family members. For instance, I would like PSE 9 to serach for images of only my daughter and provide a tag for each image that contains her picture. With this many photos it just takes too long to use the people recognition function because I must go through every person (face) that it identifies rather than just my daughter's. So, is there a way in PSE 9 to restrict the photo recognition feature to search for only one person/face?
Thanks, Jeff

I have the same need. We have numerous app vendors that change their certificate that I need to deploy to 2500 PC's. We were using the registry via MS JVM to import these certificates. That is no longer an option with 2003 Server and Vista not supporting MS JVM. I have tried the Keytool as a login script process but it keeps asking for a password. Doubt we would ever be able to locate anyone who would know what it was. So far I have found the system deployment setup but am having problems actually getting it to work. Here is what I have so far for the deployment.config:
deployment.system.config=file\:/M\:/Winstall/Utils/Javacert/deployment.properties
deployment.system.config.mandatory=false
The deployment.properties has:
deployment.system.security.trusted.certs=file\:/M\:/Winstall/Utils/Javacert/Trusted.certs
The Trusted.certs file ahs all the certificates we support from a network application point of view. Any help would be appreciated.

Lost functions for excel

I receive files from my boss and I need to edit them using my computer. The problem is that I use Numbers, and he uses Excel. Formulas and functions get lost and get miscontrued during the process, so it inevitably leaves me sending back the file with missing or incorrect formulas. Are there any drivers or extensions I can download to help me out with the converting from excel to numbers? I hate sending back unfinished work.

Jerry,
Perhaps I misread the OPs text. I focused on the line:
he problem is that I use Numbers, and he uses Excel.
Which leads me to believe the problem is in importing and export between Excel <--> Numbers NOT between version of Numbers.

Is there a color range function in PSE

I have used photoshop CS4 and been comfortable using the color range function. I have tested PSE which I am thinking of buying as it is more affordable, however could not find the color range. Is there a similar function or is it got a different name in PSE? I mainly use this for jewellery and to change backgrounds.
Thnaks for your time and feedback.

Terri, thanks a lot for your reply, very helpful. I had CS3 but not anymore....so I ahve to make

Content aware fill functionality in PSE 9

The press release for PSE 9 states "the Content Aware Fill technology introduced with Photoshop CS5 is one of our most exciting innovations ever, so we’re thrilled to be able to make it accessible to photo and video enthusiasts in this latest Elements release" and that "the content intelligence in the Spot Healing Brush" has been "adapted from Photoshop CS5’s celebrated Content Aware Fill feature".
In what way does this functionality as implemented in PSE 9 differ from that in PS CS5? Clearly it's not the same functionality otherwise the press release and product description would say so. Has it been crippled in any significant way or just implemented differently?
This feature is the only reason I would upgrade to PSE 9. Can anyone with direct experience please confirm whether or not I would be disappointed?

You know, I completely forgot that there's a free action you can download that will enable the content-aware patching:

Lost functionality in keyboard and mouse in Snow Leopard

Hi,
Since installing Snow Leopard I have lost the following functions:
"enter" key on number pad not working
scrolling horizontal w/mighty mouse not working. scrolling vertical with"nub" is superfast. System Pref's no help
Can't print using "Command" "p" in text edit.
I have tried the Combo 10.6.1 updater again but no luck.
Anyone else having these problems?
20" iMac 2008 Intel, thin alum keyboard.

Just a thought: Adding your problem, which is different from the original posters' (he's using an Apple Keyboard and probably had OS issues), to a thread that has been dead for a couple of months is not the best way to get help.
I'd start a new thread that mentions your keyboard brand in the title, and a complete description of how you installed SL and what you have done (as far as permissions repairs, update reinstallations, keyboard vendor support statements) to solve your issue already.
Who knows, others that are using the same keyboard may recognize the problem and may know a solution from the thread title, plus you will have people working on your problem, not the original posters' (he never posted back, so I assume he fixed his problem).

Lost Function key access to hardware features.

Hello,
I recently upgraded to Vista SP1 and I just noticed that i lost the ability to use my F keys to change volume level and screen / keyboard brightness in Vista.
I have also noticed that the application in the system notification area that controls this does not appear to be running.
Does anyone know what is the name of the application and where it is located on the HD?
I have been trying to drill through my HD to find it but I have not been able to locate the program that controls these features in Windows.
Kind Regards,

I have resolved my own problem:
Sorry for the post, but it may help others that loose this functionality.
The file you need to move to the startup folder is located in the following location:
C:\Program Files\Boot Camp\KbdMgr.exe
Once I created a shortcut for this in my windows startup folder, everything returned back to normal.
Hope this helps someone!
Regards,

Lost function key special functions - flash cards?

I seem to have lost the function key special functions which I think is related to flash cards. The function LED illuminates but pressing a function key has no effect (brightness, hibernate, monitor switch etc.).
How can I restore the function. I can't find anything under Toshiba Assit utility.
Thank you
Richard

Hello Richard
When you press FN button the Flash Cards should be shown at the top of the display. If nothing happens you can try to restart Flash Cards. This option you can find under START > All Programs > TOSHIBA > Utilities > Restart Flash Cards.
Please try it. If this will not helps please restart your notebook. Be so nice and post the result.
