Missing filter gallery photoshop elements 6

More that half of my filter gallery is missing, not greyed out, just missing with all files apparently still there,

  Some effects are often grayed out if an image is 16 bit and needs to be converted to an 8-bit image.
Imageà Modeà 8 Bits/Channel.
That’s obviously not your problem; so you probably need or rebuild the media database.  　 
Close Photoshop Elements Editor and Organizer.
Navigate to:
  Windows XP:   C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\6.0\Locale\en_us
  Win Vista/7:   C:\Program Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\6.0\Locale\en_us
  Macintosh:   //Library/Application Support/Adobe/Photoshop Elements/6.0/Locale/en_US/
Delete the file Mediadatabase.db3.
Re-launch Photoshop Elements Editor. A progress bar appears as the media database is re-created. Wait for this process to complete. It make take some time and the screen may periodically go blank; so go away and get yourself a coffee and be patient.
  N.B. If you have any of your own custom effects, you may need to re-create/re-install them.

  • Polarzing filter in Photoshop Elements 9?

    How do I simulate a polarzing filter in photoshop elements 9?

    Unfortunately, the effect of a polarizing filter can't be really simulated in Elements or any other editing software, contrary to most other kinds of glass filters, coloured or with gradients.

  • Missing profile in Photoshop Elements

    Dear all,
    Recently, when I open a file (jpeg or psd) with my Photoshop Elements, it always pops up a "Missing Profile" warning box, saying "This file does not have a color profile associated with it, what would you like to do? Leave it as it is (Don't color manager), Assign adobe RGB or Assign sRGB"
    How can I fix this problem?
    Any help is much appreciated.
    Many thanks~

    The answer is to assign the profile that the file should have been saved with. 
    JPGs and PSDs should have been saved with a color profile and some of what you’ve been working with have not been saved properly, so PSE is asking you when you open them what to use.
    If these are your own images taken with a camera then you should know what the profile was set in the camera as well as if you’ve converted from one profile to another in PSE.
    If these are images from somewhere else, then maybe the source can tell you what profile they were saved with.  If you have no way of asking or knowing then try each of AdobeRGB and sRGB and see which one looks better.
    An image that should be AdobeRGB but is wrongly assigned sRGB will look faded and greenish.  An image that should be sRGB but wrongly assigned AdobeRGB will look oversaturated a little.  The differences may be subtle but one version should look better to you.
    If these are your images, then always save them with a color profile so you won’t lose track of it and have to guess in the future.  If these are someone else’s images, then talk to the other person and see if you can get them to assign the proper color profile to them.

  • What happened to the video filter in Photoshop Elements 13?

    So disappointed in Photoshop Elements 13. Just upgraded from Elements 8 with great expectations that 13 would be better and more powerful. All they did was dumb it down. Wish I could get my money back.

    The Extract filter was eliminated as it has been made utterly obsolete by the new selection techniques in CS5.

  • Need help, I've tried everything....Missing Photos in Photoshop Elements Slideshow...

    Hi all,
    I've created a slideshow with Photoshop Elements 7 and the photos loaded and everything looked great.  Now when I open up the slideshow in the editor, it's only showing me a few of the photos, the others are completely black. However, when I look in properties, I can see the .jpg file listed, but I can't see anything. It doesn't show up with I play it, I tried File/Reconnect/All missing files it says "there are no files to reconnect".  I don't understand if the slideshow is recognizing the pictures, why can't I see them.  I am ready to start a fire with my computer.  Please help!  I've spent so much time editing the pan/zoom and sequence, I feel like crying.  This is my first time posting, so I'm not even sure what to do next.
    Many thanks to anyone listening!
    At this point, is there even a way to re-add the pictures into each space, but allow it to keep the formating and pan/zoom attached to the particular slide?

    Hi Reema4,
    It sounds like we have similar problems. See what I just posted at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1044130. I can certainly understand your frustration. It is very discouraging that you have not had a reply in over a year now.
    I just happened to stumble on your item as it was marked on the right side of the forum page. I could not seem to find anything by searching the forum… as they suggest. Have you found help outside of the forum? If so can you share it with me? I will be monitoring your item and suggest that you monitor my item also.
    Please let me know what you may have learned. I think my problem was caused when I moved the folder/files, outside of the Organizer, after I finished the Slideshow… also I am on a windows system. See my forum item for details.
    You said “Now when I open up the slideshow in the editor, it's only showing me a few of the photos, the others are completely black. However, when I look in properties, I can see the .jpg file listed, but I can't see anything.” Is there a way to see the properties while in the Slideshow Editor? How?

  • Where is the camera shake reduction filter on Photoshop Elements?

    I downloaded Photoshop Elements for the sole purpose of using this camera shake reduction filter all over the website, but now cannot find it in the list of available filters.  Help!

    Unfortunately, the Camera Shake Reduction filter is only available in photoshop cc and cc 2014, which is part of the creative cloud, not in any version of photoshop elements.

  • Missing files in Photoshop Elements 8

    I just upgraded from PSE 7 to PSE 8.  All photos in PSE 7 are viewable, crisp and clear (about 7000 photos going back to year 1999).  Each year I make new folders of the events for that year and keep them under my Photos folder on my "D" drive (have one HD partitioned into a "C" and "D" drives).   In 2010, I made folders for various events and titled them according.  Example are 2010 - Easter; 2010 - Hawaii, 2010 - Convention, etc.  All of the earlier photos (prior to 2010) for 2009 and earlier years "converted" without any apparent problems in PSE 8.  Several of the 2010 folders also converted without any problems, but the three most recent folders of photos show as blurry thumbnails in the PSE 8 Elements Organizer screen and when clicked on say "searching for the missing file".  The file cannot be found.
    As far as I know there is no difference from the way these 3 folders of photos are titled and were imported into PSE 7, where they continue be viewable as sharp photos.  In other words, in PSE 7 there is no problem but in PSE 8 these three files of photos cannot "be found".
    Anyone have any idea what the problem is and how to overcome it?  If not, then I guess it was a mistake to upgrade from PSE 7 to PSE 8 as PSE 7 is working perfectly.  Best bet is just remove PSE 8 until this problem is fixed??? 
    Running Windows Vista Ultimate.       

    Found the solution. I cloned the drive like you did and PSE became confused since there are now two drives with identical volumeid. It kept pointing to F: when I wanted to point to C:.    I cloned C: when I installed F:    so both F: and C: now has the same volumeid. Download volumeid from microsoft and verify that they are have the same volume id by typing vol C:    and then vol F: . After verifying that they both indeed have the same volumeid, type volumeid F: 1111-1111. Basically change the volume id of F: to 1111-1111. Reboot and PSE should now point all the files to C:

  • Missing font in Photoshop Elements 2.0 (Lithos Pro)

    Greetings...
    I have been working on a  project for over a year and have created some graphic images for a book. I need to edit one of these images and the font I used (from this very same program) is missing. I found my font library but cannot find my Lithos Pro.
    Customer support chat sent me to another area to get help and I have found nothing. I tried to download LIthos Pro from another site and ended up with a bug. (It's gone now.)
    Please help!!!!

    Windows Vista.
    Yes... I found a free download and in the middle of downloading, I got a virus warning. Stopped everything and got rid of it. It was a PUP trojan... ?
    I've had a friend do the edit for me, but I still wonder where my font went. I may have to upgrade to a newer version. I'm just not ready to do that right now.
    Thanks for replying.

  • Missing files from photoshop elements 6

    I AM NOT ABLE TO PRINT, DURN TO CD OR TRANS TO USB SOME OF MY PICTURES IN MY ORGANIZER.  CAN NOT RECONNECT BECAUSE THERE IS NO FILE TO BE FOUND WHEN I TRY RECONNECTING.  I WAS TOLD 1ST FIND FILE I DID THAT.  2ND FIND PATH THIS I DON'T KNOW
    HOW TO DO. AND I WAS TOLD I WOULD BE ABLE TO RECONNECT.  IF ANYONE HAS THE ANSWER THANKS.

    Are you sure that you have not deleted files from your system ? Reconnect makes a search for these files on your sysem. If files are not available, then I dont think there is any option.
    Did you have backup of those files somewhere else _

  • Gibt es den PS Express Carmine-Filter auch in Photoshop Elements?

  • Adobe photoshop elements 6.0. What do people think?

    New photographer, just purchased adobe photo shop elements 6. Does this work as easy as it says? I welcome any feedback. from deb.

    I've been a user of PS (full-version) since the day it hit the PC. I have never used PSE, but I just bought a copy of it for a friend, who wants to do about what you want.
    Now, using PS, as I do, I would miss many things that I take for granted, but unless one is in the business and doing work, especially for print, PSE should be great.
    One of its "features," that I just commented on in another thread here, is it's ability to do SlideShows. Directly, PS can't do that alone, though it figures prominently into my SlideShow workflow, which moves on to Premiere Pro and Encore.
    One thing that I picked up for my friend was a copy of the Missing Manual for Photoshop Elements. I come from the dark ages, when every major program had a manual, or two, or three. I'm less of an on-line guy, when it comes to manuals. That is why I picked up the book. It also came highly recommended from another friend, who's an author of both PSE and PrE books, though not that series.
    Good luck, and enjoy,

  • Question about Photoshop Elements, not sure where else to post at.

    I am looking to be able to add layers and do some fun type editing for photos to use as backgrounds and media shows. I'm new to this. I am planning to add Photoshop Elements and was just curious if it does enough different stuff from iPhoto 11 to make it worth it as well as enough to avoid purchasing the bigger more expensive Photoshop programs. I am also wondering where to get good tutorials on learning to use it, if so. Any help? Thanks.

    PhotoShop Elements will do what you want, and is a good complement to iPhoto. For learning it, I suggest Barbara Brundage's excellent Missing Manual for PhotoShop Elements (Macintosh).

    Adobe also has lots of tutorials on their website.

  • Photoshop CS6 Filter Gallery Plugin Missing after Creative Cloud Last update!

    I have a new 15" macbook pro, and have the set requirements to run Photoshop CS6 even after the recent updates.  However, I still cannot access the "Filter Gallery", and when I went to find the so called "Filter Gallery" plugin folder--what do you know that plugin is missing all together.  I don't even have it anymore!  I've already done the Preferences, show all plugins, etc... deal and this is not the issue here.  My Filter Plugin is missing all together, and my macbook pro was purchased brand new from the Mac store, 3-4 months ago.
    What is the suggestion for me in this case?  I have been a paying Adobe Creative Cloud member since day one, when it first became available, and now I'm over the top upset over this problem!  How can I fix this missing plugin?

    Well after much research that I did on my own, I came across this link that help shed some light to the problem I listed above. 
    Here's the link that explains how to get your "Filter Gallery" to show and not be grayed out.  Unfortunately, it appears Adobe has to work on upgrading this Filter Gallery to work to part with 16-bit images, vs the current 8-bit.
    click on link where it explains this in details, and shows how to fix the problem I had.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 - Mac OS 10.7.5 - Filter Gallery background is black

    The background colour of the Filter Gallery window (and any filter window) is black. I can see sliders and checkboxes, but I cannot see the related labels and text. This does not happen in the Adobe Illustrator Effects windows. I've rebuilt PS settings, but I still have this issue. I've searched the web without luck. Any ideas?
    Thanks.
    Francis.

    Did you use MacKeeper or some other utility to "clean" your OS?
    You'll probably need to do a repair install of the OS to fix the missing OS components.
