Missing Advanced Dialog Button in Photo Downloader

I am running elements on an HP ENVY 14 Windows 7 laptop. The Advanced Dialog button does not appear as an option when I download from my camera. I understand it may be designed this way to prevent the option from running on smaller displays. My display is set up at 1366x768 which is the maximun available on this display. Is there a configuration option I can change to use the advanced dialog feature?

Go to the control panel and check dpi scaling under Appearance or Display.
It’s not uncommon to see a setting of 125% or higher to improve screen readability but PSE9 requires a dpi of 96 or 100%
Whilst the Editor Menu will appear at 120% the Organizer Menu (and the advanced button in downloader) won’t.
Try a setting of 115% or 116% otherwise 100%. A common display resolution, notably for laptops and netbooks is 1024 x 768 but PSE9 requires a screen height of 800 for full functionality.

Missing Advanced Dialog button

Somehow the "Advanced Dialog" button is missing from the Photo Downloader box of my Elements 8. Does anyone have the same problem and know how to fix it? Thanks.

John,
As mentioned yestda, i deleted and re-installed the Element 8 on my computer. It went very smoothly, no problem whatsoever. Then i tried everything you mentioned in your emails. Nothing helped. The 'Advanced" option did not show up at all in the Preferences box, nor on the Downleader box. I can't think of anything else to try other than call the Tech support of Adobe, unless you or someone else can suggest something else to try. I am willing to try anything. Thanks a lot for everyone's help.

Does "'Show APD Dialog (Advanced)" appear as an option in that drop-down list, as shown here:

If it doesn't, then that's an additional indication that your PSE is getting confused about the display height. (When the height is less than 768, PSE won't show the Advanced option in the drop-down box.) Whether that's a bug in PSE or a problem on your computer, who knows.

Advanced Dialog button not showing during "Get photos from camera or card"

Based on previous threads, I have double checked my screen resolution (currently set at 1920x1080) and uninstalled/reinstalled PSE 8. I run on Windows 7. Has anyone has success getting the Advanced Dialog button to appear?

A little experimentation shows that your Windows display text-size setting (DPI, dots-per-inch) is set too large, probably 150%. When I set my display to 1920 x 1080, I can set the text size to as large as 140%, but any larger and the Advanced Dialog button won't show. To change the text size, right-click the Windows desktop, select Personalize, Display, Set Custom Text Size (DPI), and then enter a different value.
PSE 8 has an undocumented "feature" that disables the Advanced Dialog when it won't fit on the screen. This commonly occurs on netbooks with display heights less than 768, but it appears to happen also when the combination of display resolution and DPI make the dialog too big to fit. Lazy programming on the part of Adobe.

Missing advanced dialog box in photoshop elements 9

I am hoping someone out there can help. I have a missing advanced dialog box on my photoshop downloader page. I have photoshop elements 9. I saw that changing the screen resolution can sometime help this, however it does not in my case, I've tried all available. I have a new Dell Inspiron laptop and resolution is set at 1366 X 768. My computer was preloaded with photoshop elements 8. I can see the advanced dialog box in version 8. However, it is not in version 9. Does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks for your help.

Check your screen resolution settings for vista.
I believe the screen resolution needs to be at least 1024 x 768 for the camera raw dialog to show in pse 8.
For example, if instead of running VirtualBox full screen, your running it in windowed or seamless mode and made the window smaller by dragging on the corner, that would automatically lessen the screen resolution in vista.

Advanced Dialog button on Parameter Panel?

Hello,
I was reading the pdf version of the online help file dated 5/16/11. The bottom of page 70 and page 471 discusses an Advanced Dialog button on the parameter panel. I opened a report that has dynamic cascading prompts, but did not see this button. I'm hoping someone can tell me where this button is or what options on the create parameter field need to be selected to enable this button.
Thank you
Tracy

I think it's the same as the 3rd box, Value Options, but I'll have to check with the PM. Most of our Dialog boxes are dynamic so if the option is not available or supported with the type you have selected or using the various options are not shown.

Oops Don, yes, I am testing CR2011. I'm sorry for not remembering to put that in the message.
It caught my attention because it wasn't a feature that I was familiar with.
At least now you can let the technical writers know that there is at least 1 person that actually reads the user guides - LOL

Missing Joing Kerberos Button...

Just in case this happens to you...
Binding Mac OS X Server 10.4.x to Active Directory or Open Directory
(for the purposes of joining an AD or OD Kerberos Realm)
If you go through the steps and get to the point where you've chosen "connected to a directory system" and you have no "join kerberos" button...
1. Demote to standalone, save, quit Server Admin
2. Remove, re-add LDAP or AD configurations in Directory Access.
3. Obviously make sure your DNS is set to that which is able to resolve the necessary servers, including the one you're on.
4. Set up Server (server admin) as connected-to (in the case of AD) or OD Master (in the case of OD, quickly follow this with "connected-to" once the change is complete).
5. Click "change" when prompted for changing the role. Do NOT click save.
6. Click Join kerberos. You should get your kerberos realm filled in the drop-down. Use your delegate admin (provided from the OD or AD KDC) to authenticate.
The computer will still have the join kerberos button available in the meantime. Don't click it. You should be joined. Check your /Library/Preferences/edu.mit.Kerberos file to examine your realms.
*If you now bind a client to your new service principle, you should be able to log-in, or request any other kerberized service. Examine your kerberos tickets using klist or /System/Library/CoreServices/Kerberos to make sure they are there.
And..when in doubt, use sso_util to join. The GUI just gets weirded out sometimes..have fun.

No Advanced Dialogue Option in Stnadard Photo Downloader

In my old Photoshop Elements 6, I could go to File --- Get Photos----Camera Card Reader and it would access my card reader and show me all the files on it so I could choose which ones I wished to download. This was done by clicking on an Advanced Dialogue link. Now I have PSE 8. The Help Section tells me to go to the standard photo downloader dialogue box and click on the advanced dialogue option to be able to do this. However, my standard dialogue box doesn't have anyplace to click for "advanced dialogue" Help! I want to be able to view which pictures to download like I did in Elements 6. Any thoughts?

Right, that's the symptom -- the Advanced Dialog button is missing.
I am running Windows 7 and it tells me that I am at 100% and with a 9

Help- Elements 9 "Does not show Advanced dialog" for downloading

Hi, I'm fairly new to elements and have gone through my "Dummies Book" and yesterday received my Elements 9 book by Scott Kelby and Matt Kloskowski. My problem is when I'm attempting to download 5 new pictures from a card that still has 700 on it - The download organizer does NOT show the "Advanced Dialog button" on the bottom-left corner of the dialog box which as Kelby and Kloskowski indicate, would allow me to select only the 5 new pictures that I am attempting to download.
Can anyone assist? Do you have any recommendations? It is clearly described (even with pictures) in the Scott Kelby book; however, my screen does not list the advanced dialog button.
Thank you-Thank you-Thank you!

Bob, It just seems that using windows to import into a file and then
importing from Files and Folders is a workaround to not being able to bring
up the Advanced Dialog Button. I do appreciate and thank you for this
suggestion!
Overall, I'm disappointed in the Photoshop Elements 9 program. It appears
from reading this forum, that there are many similar difficulties with the
Advanced Dialog Button and other similar programming elements that have
perpetuated from Elements 8.
Again, thank you for your time and interest and support in this forum.
Without contributors like yourself, many "newbies" would be forever lost.
One last question, Since I've downloaded by original batch of 700 photos
three times now, what would be the easiest way of cleaning up my mess??????
Thank you. Hoping to be able to use this program by Christmas!!!!!

Advanced Dialog in Elements 9 Organizer

I just downloaded Photoshop Elements 9 and am trying to import photos into the Organizer. In the Photo Downloader window, the Advanced Dialog button is missing. This is an option that I desperately need, as I upload photos from many dates and events at once and would like to organize them accordingly. Any thoughts? Should I attempt to uninstall and reinstall the program?

This is a known problem for lower screen resolutions.

Photo Downloader Issues

I have used PSE 9 fine for a little while now and can't complain yet, except that in my photo downloader dialoge box, I don't have the "advanced dialoge" button option down at the bottom left. All the tutorials I've viewed and books I've scanned show screen shots indicating that I should have this option. Any idea why I don't? I want the option to choose which images to import as well as rename and add metadata info, etc. like I did with my PSE 6 that I was previously using.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Hmmm . . .that's interesting.
It seems from the screen shots that I've seen, that it should be directly across from the "get media" and "cancel" buttons on the right. I can see those, but there is a big empty space on the left where before I had the "advanced dialoge" button. I can't understand why screen size/resolution would affect that. (I admit I'm slow on understanding technology . .. sorry.)
The dialoge box I get when importing from my card reader does not give me the option to choose which images to import. It just imports all files found. I'm thinking that the only way around that is just to import them straight to my external drive storage and then to import them into PSE and rename, etc. I just miss how easy I had it with PSE 6 and am wondering if the same action is possible and I'm just missing something.
Not sure if there is anything more to be said in answering my question. I will consider the answer to be "no", you will not get that button/option and you need to just learn all that PSE 9 does have to offer (smile).
Thanks!
(still trying to figure out how to check what my screen resolution is . .. .)

Can I exclude certain file types in the Photo Downloader?

Hi there!
I am very new here, so please do correct me on etiquette and if I'm doing something wrong. I've been searching the web for quite a while now but couldn't find an answer or even questions concerning this problem...
I like using Bridge's Photo Downloader, for the nice renaming and other options it gives me. Usually I want to download all images from a card and then delete them on the card. The problem I am having is that Photo Downloader will not only see images (like .JPG, .CR2 or .ARW) but camera database files and settings (.INT, .BDM, .BIN, ...). This is annoying, since I neither want them stored on my hard drive nor deleted on my card. I also would like to import movies in a different way. The way I can work around this now is that I manually deselect all non-images in the Advanced Dialog and then only download these. But I was hoping that there is a more elegant and automatic way to just exclude certain file types from automatic selection. Or even just a way to mark or unmark the images by file type. This should be very easy to implement and I am really curious if I am missing something obvious here or if this is just not possible yet.
Has anyone else thought this before? Or are you all using different methods to import images from your card reader?
Any help or comment is appreciated.

Sorry, download history is either on or off. There is no preference setting to exclude specific file types.

PSE8 for Mac: Convert to DNG in Bridge Photo Downloader fails

Using PSE8 for Mac. When I get RAW photos from Bridge and specify "Convert to DNG" in the advanced options of the Photo Downloader, the RAW files download but the conversion to DNG fails for every image. I can successfully convert using the standalone DNG Converter, but I would like to use the option in the Photo Downloader that comes with Bridge. I'm in touch with Adobe Support on this but not having a lot of luck. Has anyone had this problem or know what to do?
Also, I cannot see the RAW images either in the Photo Downloader or in Bridge. They show up as blue squares with a flower graphic on them in the Downloader, and as white squares in Bridge. I can only see images once I open them in Elements. Is this normal?

Also, I cannot see the RAW images either in the Photo Downloader or in Bridge.
This is the source of your problem. You need to update the raw converter in bridge, which ships with a very old version (5.0). In bridge, go to help>updates and let it do its thing.

Photo Downloader Behaviour Options

Hi.
In the Bridge prefs (General), there is Behaviour > When a Camera is Connected, Launch Adobe Photo Downloader. Unfortunately, I have to keep this unchecked because ANY device with pics on it will toggle this Behaviour. Adobe, could you please create checks for Camera, iPad, iPhone, etc?
Cheers. Rudy

Hi Gerald
Not making much progress on here. But, I've had some success offline. I'm using Adobe Creative Suite CS3 Design Premium whereas a friend of mine is using Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended. I had a look at his program earlier today and it seems that he has those missing options in the Bridge Photo Downloader. As far as I can see, we're running exactly the same versions of Bridge - so could it be that these options are disabled in the Creative Suite (or at least in the Design Premium edition)? I have no idea why this would be the case, but it seems the best answer so far.

Photo Downloader advanced dialog not displayed completely

Hello,
I use PSE10 and would use this application during traveling on a laptop (Compaq Presario C700). The Adobe website shows as a requirement
Color monitor with 16-bit color video card
1024x576 display resolution
The laptop I'm using fullfills these requirements, the maximal display resolution is 1280 x 800 pixel
When I start the photo downloader to import images from my digital cameras memory card, the Elements Organizer Photo Downloader dialog appears as expected. Then I switch to Advanced Dialog to select only the required image files. But I can't download the images, as the buttons are not visilble, they are below the visible area of my display. The dialog has a size of 976 x 830 pixel (checked on a differenc computer) and can not be resized to a smaller hight. So the button "get media" can not be pressed to start the download.
I checked for updates to see if I miss some bugfixes, but I'm told that no updates are available
How can I use the Advanced Dialog of Photo Downloader from Photoshop Elements 10 to select the images I want to transfer to my computer?
Wolfgang
PS: OS is Windows 7 Professional 32-bit, all available updates installed

PSE 9 - Photo Downloader missing "Advanced" option?

The PSE 9 Photo Downloader seems to have lost some of the features that the PSE 8 version had.
The PSE 8 version has an "Advanced" option that shows thumbnails of all of the files on the selected device/media and let you select which one you wanted to upload. You can also insert basic Metadata into each of the uploaded file.
The PSE 9 uploader does not appear to have the "Advanced" option and requires you to upload ALL of the files on the selected device/media and has no option to add Metadata.
The PSE 9 Preferences has a section for the uploader. That includes wether or not to do automatic correction and wether or not to do automatic uploads for specific devices. There is an option in the preferences to have a device use "Show APD Dialog (standard)", I do not see any options for an "advanced" manual upload.
Even the PSE 9 help says there is supposed to be an "Advanced" button on the downloader.
Is this correct, or am I missing something?

What is your screen resolution?
