Mulitple Photo Editing with PS Elements as iPhoto 6 Editor

Currently I am using PS Elements 4 as my iPhoto editor. When I 'select all' within an Album and select 'Edit' PS Elements only opens 4 photos regardless of how many I selected within iPhoto.
Even if a manually select more than 4 photos in iPhoto, PS Elements still only opens 4 for editing.
Does anyone know who I can have PS Elements open all the selected items I have selected within iPhoto?
Hope this makes sense.

MV:
Just can't be done. To get more than 4 open in PE you have to go 4 at a time. It's just the nature of the beast. You can submit a feature request at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html

  • Iphoto Editing with Photoshop Elements 9

    I am going into Iphoto, clicking the Edit button and it brings up Photoshop Elements 9.  I make changes, they
    look OK so I save it.  When I get back to IPhoto, it looks like the change has been made.  However when I go
    back later in the day and click on the updated photo and there is a triangle with an exclamation point in the middle.
    This means it can't find the original.  They're all located in Iphoto, what is happening?  Why does it look like the changes
    are make and then I can't find them?

    I do use a Mac, so I don¹t think versions is an issue. I would rather
    pictures edited in PSE, which began life in iPhoto, should always be saved
    back to iPhoto, as they were in Elements 8. That is not happening. Neither
    do I know where to find pictures that PSE has saved.

    >> The save dialog sees an original and asks for permission to change it.
    If you see the save as dialog you don't have your saving files preference set
    correctly. To make versions, you must set it to Save over Original.
    However, note that there is a big ol' bug in the mac version that if you even
    open that particular preference window (even if you don't change anything
    there) PSE will no longer add file extensions when you save. When using PSE as
    external editor it doesn't matter so much, but if you ever save to the desktop
    you will need to add the file extension manually to the saved file.

  • Am I correct that Photos does not support external editors? i.e., in Aperture, I click Photos Edit with.... and can open in Photoshop or various plug-ins. Changes are then automatically saved back to Aperture. Nonexistent in Photos?

    Am I correct that Photos does not support external editors? i.e., in Aperture, I click Photos > Edit with.... and can open in Photoshop or various plug-ins. Changes are then automatically saved back to Aperture. Nonexistent in Photos?

    Thanks Larry. That certainly gives me some understanding. Can't imagine I'm the only Aperture user with that concern, so I certainly hope Adobe and others will fill the void. Without that feature, Photos is pretty much a non-started for me.

  • Laptop monitor choice for photo editing with lightroom and photoshop

    Hi,
    i'm going to buy a laptop, mostly for photo editing with lightroom and photoshop use.
    I'm in trouble with the display choice.
    One laptop has LG LP156WF4 or AUO B156HAN01 display, that should be very similar matte ips display with 55%-60% coverage of AdobeRGB. You can find a review in the "Display" section of these link : http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Clevo-W650SJ-Schenker-M504-Barebones-Notebook.114329.0 .html
    The other laptop hasAU Optronics B156HW01 V.4 Matte 95%, that is a TN matte display with  95% coverage of AdobeRGB. You can find a review in these link (the display should be the green bar): http://www.anandtech.com/show/4649/mythlogic-pollux-1400-clevos-w150hr-tested/6
    My question is: which one is better for photo editing with photoshop and lightroom?
    Someone says that ips is better because of the fidelity of color reproduction, view angles and contrast.
    Someone, on the other side, says that the TN 95% is better because of the gamut%.
    Can you help me?
    Thanks,
    Marco Grechi

    Macbook pro is out of budget
    Hp assistance said that in italy they don't sell laptop with dreamcolor (i'll call again tomorrow to be sure ) but i think that it would be out of budget (max 2000 euro).
    They said that the best solution for me is the zbook 15 g2 (2300 euro), but they DON'T know brand and model of the display and if i can have SSD + HD inside the zbook 15 g2.
    The laptop with the lg panel costs 1500 euro. the question is; "i know that the lg display is not the best, but is it almost sufficient for my use?". In this way i may save 500/800 to buy a separated display later.
    I have read that dell xps 15 and dell precision m3800 have great display, but they are glossy and very reflective. Is it a big handicap?
    Do you know the 3k 15,6" display Panasonic VVX16T020G00 ? It should be a 8-bit display with 72%NTSC gamut ( http://www.panelook.com/VVX16T020G00_Panasonic_15.5_LCM_parameter_22014.html )
    Do you sugget me a 3k display for photo editing?
    Thanks

    Media cache files are not involved in the removal of the Adobe watermark from the project.prel file from a tryout.
    Just a re-enforcement mention...you cannot remove the Adobe watermark from a tryout "saved" exported product; whereas, you can from a saved/closed project file (project.prel).
    By exported product, I mean a burn to disc in the tryout or the Timeline of the tryout exported to a file saved to the computer hard drive.
    In the case of removing the Adobe watermark from the tryout project.prel, classically you delete the rendered files (Timeline Menu/Delete Rendered Files) in the purchased program. In no way is media cache involved in this. Some of us have found that there was an automatic removal of the Adobe watermark resulting from just opening the tryout project.prel file in the purchased program.
    Please review and consider.
    Thank you.

  • Organise with iPhoto,  Edit with Photoshop Elements, but avoid destructive editing

    Hi All,
    I prefer to use iPhoto as my photo organiser and for sharing to Facebook and Flickr, but I also prefer to use Photoshop Elements (v11) as my editor. iPhoto is configured to launch PSE for editing and it works fine. My question relates to doing non-destructive saves back into iPhoto. It appears as though I cannot have version control because doing a save overwrites the original file in iPhoto. Although I can chose to save an edited version of my image elsewhere on my MacBook I would prefer to have orginal and saved versions colocated. Is there anyway around this issue or do I have to use PSE Organiser to have version control?
    I like being able to Flag a bunch of photos in iPhoto, go to the Flagged folder to share them, and the way iPhoto displays shared folders uploaded to Facebook and Flickr. PSE Organiser seems a bit convoluted.
    Thanks.

    Take a look at Aperture - with it you can have versions and many people have reported that its editing is robust enough that they seldom if ever use PS or PSE anymore - maybe that would give you the editing power you wnat with the nondestructive editing of Aperture and version control

  • Photos edited with Photoshop and saved to iPhoto don't show up in album?

    When I edit photos in PSCS4, rename them, and save them to the original iPhoto album, they do not reappear. When I use the "finder", I can see that they are saved to the modified folder within iPhoto with their new filename. Is there a way to save them so that they will reappear in the original album?

    FWIW:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
    If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: iPhoto 8's new option in it's rebuild library window, "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" may make this tip obsolete. We'll know when users have occasion to use it and see if that's the case.

  • Editing with photoshop elements my copy photo colors change

    When I have a photo open in Aperture and I select "edit with Photo Shop Elements", Aperture makes a copy of my photo as it is opening up PSE9.  The copy photo changes.  I can look at the histogram and see they are different.  Why isn't this copy EXACTLY the same?  

    The file format of the newly created file (it becomes a Master) is set in Aperture Prefs.  Is it different than the file format of the existing Master?  Is there any chance the change in file format accounts for the difference you are seeing?

  • Saving photos edited in PS Elements back  into iPhoto

    I'm new to PS Elements and love it but am having trouble saving photos. I have set my preferences in iPhoto to open in PS elements for editing. So far that's great. My question is when I'm finished editing in PS Elements how do I save the edited photo back into iPhoto?? I'm sure there's an easy solution but beyond saving into PhotoLibrary in Finder then trying to find in within the many many folders and dragging into iPhoto - I'm at a loss. Any suggestions?

    Jodeth,
    That's great. Yup, it's those little things!
    You can always do a "save as" and save to the desktop. This will not change the image within iPhoto which is sometimes a way to go if you don't want the image changed within iPhoto but want to use the edited image for something else.

  • Editing with Photoshop Elements 4.0

    I'm sure the problem and solution are simple, but I'm missing something. Here goes.
    I'm using iPhoto 6.0.2. Just installed and started using Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0. Have been editing about 1,100 photos from a recent trip to Africa, which were imported from my Canon. Wanted more editing tools, so stopped editing with iPhoto and started using PS Elements. So I open a photo from the iPhoto library using PS Elements. Let's say I open a photo from Roll 100, and call it the Monkey Photo. I edit the Monkey Photo in PS Elements, and then save (not save as, but save, using the same Monkey Photo file name). It saves the photo, but not back into Roll 100, but into a new Roll created somehow by the operating system, let's call it Roll 110, found in both the Originals and Modified folders (which seems odd).
    Just like importing directly into iPhoto, when I save from PS Elements, a thumbnail is created, called a Preview. So now I have two thumbnails/previews, one from the original photo and one from the PS edited version.
    So now I go to the Africa album in iPhoto. I double click on the thumbnail on the main screen to open Monkey Photo and I see a big gray blob with a large exclamation point in the middle. I go to the iPhoto library folders, and see that Monkey Photo is no longer in Roll 100, but now in Roll 110. But somehow iPhoto is not recognizing Monkey Photo in Roll 110 (and it's no longer in Roll 100, so as far as iPhoto is concerned, it doesn't exist...but it does).
    So back to iPhoto. I click on View and switch to Roll view. Now I see Roll 100 and Roll 110. I click on Monkey Photo thumbnail in Roll 100, big gray blob, but click on Monkey Photo preview in Roll 110, and now I see Monkey Photo, in all his/her wonderfully edited colors from PS Elements.
    How do I get the thumbnail in the iPhoto Library and the Africa album to work to recognize that Monkey Photo is now in a new roll? I did the rebuild stuff (control-option on opening iPhoto, click on first three choices, wait 30 minutes....nothing happened). I noticed the ColorSync profile was missing, and reinstalled it. Still the big gray blob following thumbnail clicking. I did a war dance. Still nothing.
    What am I missing here? If you tell me that I have to recreate the Library, then the next noise you hear will be iPhoto disc being used as a frisbee and smashing into the neighbor's window.

    Robert:L
    Are you accessing that file from the Finder to open in PSE or are you using iPhoto's preferences to use PSE when you double click a thumbnail? The latter is the way it should be done. Then as long as you do not create a layered or otherwise edited file that required the psd extension nor change the file name, iPhoto will recognize the edit update the thumbnail accordingly. If you access those files from the Finder, open in PSE, edit and save, the thumbnail will not be updated but when you go to the edit mode you'll see the edits.
    Go to iPhoto's preferences and under the General section select PSE under the Open photo with: menu.

  • Batch Editing with Photoshop Elements 4.0

    I have an folder of photos which I would like to resize as a batch with Photoshop Elements 4.0. However, I am at a loss as to how to do it and am missing a step or two in my workflow.
    I would appreciate any specific step by step suggestion that you may have.
    Thanks for your help.
    Vernon

    not for "batch editing"
    You can set PSE as the external editor in the iPhoto preferences. iPhoto has the capability to directly interface with any external editor - simply go to the iPhoto preferences (iPhoto menu ==> preferences ==> General and set the Edit photo option to in external editor - select the desired external editor and you are set - now when you edit photos they are sent to the selected external editor and when you are finished editing you save (not save as) and the edited photo is returned to iPhoto, the original is maintained in iPhoto and the iPhoto database is correctly updated.
    If you want the option of editing in either iPhoto or the external editor after selecting your external editor simply set the edit in back to main window - now when you right click (control Click) on a photo you will get a menu which allows you to select either.

  • Photo edits not showing up in iPhoto when using PSE

    I have recently purchased Photoshop Elements 13 and have set iPhoto to use it as my editor. That is working, however, when I save the file, the new file does not show up in iPhoto. It does, however, show up in Organizer. Is there any way to fix this?

    Thanks Larry, I don't doubt that I'm not doing it correctly, but I don't know what I am doing wrong.  I have selected PSE to be my external editor in the iPhoto preferences and when I select a photo in iPhoto to edit, it comes up in PSE. I edit the photo and select save (or click on the X in the top right corner of the image, I have tried both and gotten the same results both ways. I get a dialog box that indicates PSE is going to save the file in psd format. I have let it do that and I have also changed to JPG, neither has made any difference. I have also gone in and changed the preferences in PSE to replace the original file on the advice of help at Elements Village. It didn't change the file in iPhoto before that change and it hasn't changed it after that change either.
    The file I originally was working with was in RAW format, and I read in another thread that there was no way for PSE to save the edited RAW file back into iPhoto directly, that it would need to be saved somewhere else, such as to the desktop, and then imported back into iPhoto. So, I edited a jpg file and saved it and that edited file did not show up in iPhoto either. From reading other threads, it seems to work for other people, but I don't know what I and doing wrong or what else to try. I have spent a ton of time trying to get this to work because I don't care for the PS Organizer and would prefer to use iPhoto to organize my photos and PSE and ACR to edit them, but so far I am not having any luck with it other than saving the edited file somewhere else and then importing it again into iPhoto, which is a pretty clunky way to have to do it.

  • Not able to see photos edited with photoshop

    Is there an issue with editing a photo with photoshop that has been imported into iphoto and then being able to see the "saved as" version in iPhoto?
    I have done just this: right-click the thumbnail in iphoto/select "show file"/open with/Photoshop, edit the photo and save as the same file name + ".1" in the same location as the original file, looking in iPhoto the new "saved as" version does not display.
    If I try to import the photo, it is difficult to access the directory where iPhoto stores the files--I did eventually figure out how to do it, and when I did, the import failed, the dialogue box saying that it could not import because the file was already in the iPhoto library.
    Does anyone know how to solve this issue?
    Thanks,
    HM

  • IPhone Photos edited with iOS 7 losing adjustments in Aperture

    I shot a few photos with iOS 7 this weekend while at the cottage and was importing them into Aperture (which I use to manage my rather large collection). I noticed that for some reason some of the adjustments were now missing. Yes my crops and auto enchancements were there but the colour effects I applied were not.
    Just curious if anyone knows how to work around this? I figured I could always open the edited photos in another app like Camera+ and save them out again but that seems to be poor form as it'd result in generation loss.
    Any suggestions?

    Could you give more details please, so we can compare notes?
    How are you editing and transfering your photos - editing directly in the Camera.app, the Photos.app, iPhoto IOS?
    And what kind of IOS device? iPad, iPod, iPhone?
    And how have the photos been transferred to your Mac? Photo Stream? Import by connecting the device?
    I just made a test on my iPad with IOS 7 and all edits transferred:
    Taking the pictures with the Camera.app
    Editing them in the Camera.app and saving the edited version to the camera roll.
    The edited version with all edits appeared in the Photo Stream (a few hours later ) and all edits were there.
    But if you edited in the Photos.app and not in the Camera.app, it is harder to get the edited version to the Camera Roll. I use iPhoto to save an edited copy of the photo to the camera Roll (from the "Share" menu in iPhoto). That adds them to the Photo Stream as well.
    But the biggest problem with this is, that saving back to the Camera Roll after editing in iPhoto appears to be changing all dates and the lens information anad Camera Make is now missing from the EXIF..
    The photo I took yesterday should show the dates like this:  Sept. 23,
    But it is showing Sept. 24 for all dates:
    So my suggestion would be to do basic edits in the Camera.app before the photos will be saved to the Camera Roll for the first time, and to postpone all further edits, until the photos are in Aperture. Or, to keep both versions in the camera roll, the original and the edited version.
