No advanced option in photo downloader
? Why does my Photo Downloader not have an advanced option as in the training videos?
Hi Tom,
After doing a little more hunting around, I have found that the advanced dialog has grown a little and is now 854 pixels deep.
That is quite close to your screen depth of 900. As a test, is it possible to change to a high resolution?
I'm not sure whether it will make any difference but do you have the taskbar set to autohide?
The DPI setting I referred to in my last post can be found in the Personalization option as Adjust font size (DPI). See if setting that to 96DPI helps.

No advanced option on photo downloader screen.
Photoshop 8. When importing pictures, the photo downloader screen is missing the "Advanced" button that is supposed to be in the lower left hand corner. As a test, we installed the same software on another computer and there, the downloader display page was fine. What causes an option button to just not show up? Thoughts?
Do you mean Photoshop Elements 8?

Geotag option for Photo Downloader
An option for Geotagging images during download with the ability to select one or more matching GPS files (GPX, NMEA etc) would be highly desireable.
Similar to the current option for applying metadata
Getting this right from the outset would save a lot of duplication and messing around.
An option to run this retrospectively from Bridge would also be good.I've been asking for this feature for a long, long time. I think I first asked for it when Lightroom 1 hadn't even made it to beta yet. It would be extremely simple to impliment but the folks at Adobe just don't listen to us.

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?

Help with Adobe Photo Downloader in PSE 7?
I do not allow PSE 7 to "see" pictures all over my hard drives; I have ONE watched folder called "my picture collection", in which are stored all of my "final copy" pictures, and these are the only pictures in "my catalog".
Since I am using Photoshop Elements to edit, and tag pictures, etc, I would like to use it to get photos from my Camera....however...
I want to import pictures from my camera, or scanner, to a different folder then my "watched folder", to a folder called "my Pictures F drive". I do this because these may be photos I DO NOT want in "My Catalog", such as today, pictures of the insides of an engine.
I can tell Adobe Photo Downloader NOT to open the Organizer after importing the pictures to whatever folder I wish, and organizer does not open; BUT, I am informed that the next time I open PSE 7, the Organizer will display these pictures, which it does. this is what I do NOT want; I don't want Organizer importing these pictues, and including them in "My Catalog" just because I used Photo Downloader to get them from my camera to a completely unrelated folder; NOT my "watched Folder". Is there any way of stopping Organizer from importing ALL photos handled by Photo Downloader?? If I want photos in "My Catalog", I move them into the "Watched Folder", and THEN I want Organizer to find them, and open them up for tagging etc (which it does). I can't find any way of doing this in "Preferences", or options in Photo Downloader. (The alternative would be to use a different program to get the pictures from the Camera, or scanner). Thanks for any assistance!! Maybe I am not seeing something obvious??I have an older version of Elements, and in that the downloader always runs in the background when it is enabled via preferences. I found this to be annoying and, therefore, disabled this feature.
My workflow is:
I use a card reader to import pictures from camera card to an empty folder on the desktop
Next, I burn a CD before I do anything else. This is my "film" - can always go back to retrieve an accidentally deleted file.
Then, I delete the obviously poor pictures from the desktop folder - motion, unflattering pose, etc.
Finally, I manually import the "keepers" into organizer, tag them, etc.
You could adapt this scheme to import into the organizer only the pictures which meet the test for what you call "my picture collection", i.e. those pictures which have been enhanced .
In the older version of Elements, the organizer allows one to make a collection. I believe that it called something else in PEv.7, but it is still there. The advantage of this is that you can assemble a group of photos for a particular purpose, which you do. It also allows you to define the order of the photos in the collection by dragging them into position. Suggest that you consult the help file re same. -

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
point Segoe UI at 96 pixels

OK, so the first FAQ doesn't apply -- you're already running a Windows

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?
See this post for more details.

My Photoshop Elements 12 is downloading two copies of each photo and there is no Automatically Stack RAW and JPEG Option in the Download Box.
Anwesha,
Yes.
I have clicked on it, selected “Stack” and all is now fine, with both versions of the photo readable by “unstacking”, using the side arrows !!
Thanks for that.

I am facing this problem:
When publishing a photo website with iWeb there seems to way to avoid the 'download' (phot) option!
What I want is to show pictures but not to offer a download. Any ideas?
Thanks
ThorgeIf you're putting the photos in a Photo page or Album page layout go to the Inpsector/Photos/Photos pane and set the Photo Download Size to "None":
However, that won't stop someone from taking a screenshot of the photos. There's no way to stop that but it will only give them a small version of the photo that won't be much good for printing. If that's a concern you can add a watermark to the photos. Go to MacUpdate.com and search for "watermark" to get a list of potential application candidates.

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. RudyHi 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. -
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. -
Bridge Photo Downloader - leave already copied files
I've just started using Bridge and its photo downloader and it mostly works just the way I want it to. I like the fact that I can use Bridge to browse and organise my photos without having to store a copy of every image in some proprietary database, and I love that the photo downloader allows me to import my images into folders organised by date etc. All in all I'm quite happy with this setup except for one little problem.
Every time I connect my camera (or iPhone etc.) Photo Downloader prompts me to save the images to my download folder. The problem is that it selects all the photos on that device to download even if it has already downloaded them. At first I didn't notice this until I discovered multiple copies of some of my images. Is there some way to get it to ignore or deselect photos that have already been imported? Or can I get it to automatically erase images off the device after download?
Currently I have to either manually deselect all the photos I already have which is tedious and prone to error, or I have to manually erase the device every time I download, which is less work but not exactly confidence inspiring. I don't want to store backup copies on my computer since I have limited space and I backup my whole hard drive on a regular basis anyway. Anyone have any tips?
Thanks,
ScottTo my knowledge there is no difference between the CS3 and CS4 version for
Photodownloader
You could start with the Bridge preferences / general / behavior and uncheck
the option to automatically start Photodownloader when a camera is
connected. It looks an easy feature to use the automatic function but it is
not because every time you sync your iPhone the app starts and this can be
very annoying.
I have started downloader once and let the icon stay in the dock permanently
so I can point to this icon directly to start downloader. You can also use
the menu file / get photo's from camera if you don't want the icon in the
dock, up to you.
When you start downloader you can choose from a device if there are more
than 2 devices to choose from (the list includes also your iPhone if you
have a wireless connection with it), otherwise it selects the device itself.
By default it shows the standard dialog but you should set it to advanced
dialog. In this way you can see the previews but also have the ability to
choose for uncheck all.
Use this function when you have older images on your iPhone and just want to
load the recent ones. Just select the desired once holding down shift to
select first and last in a row or command to select random multiple files.
Those files do get a blue border when selected.
When you have selected all the files you want just hit the checkmark square
with your mouse on one blue lined file and all the selected files get a
checkmark. Now you can hit the get photos button and your done.
But I would also advice you to make a short study of the other options that
Photodownloader has to offer like renaming, converting to DNG, back-up and
adding metadata to it.
It is a very easy way to handle multiple actions with just one mouse click
once you have the settings as you want it.

Convert to dng is greyed out in CS3 Bridge Photo Downloader
I have no idea what has happened, but when I use the Photo Downloader in Bridge (CS3) to copy using my card reader, the option to convert to dng is greyed out and is not available for me to select. I can convert to dng using the stand alone dng converter and also from within Camera Raw with no problem, but I like the convenience of doing the conversion using the Photo Downloader. This option was available to me and worked perfectly up until a couple of weeks ago. Any ideas and suggestions will be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.
