PC to Mac with Elements 12?

Hi,  I would like to start organizing my photos with Elements 12 on my PC, but I am planning on switching to a Mac later this year.  Will I be able to move my info over and will my Elements work on my Mac or will I need to re-purchase it?

Hi Glenn,
Please try installing a trial of PSE13 on Windows in order to restore PSE6 backup in it. Now this catalog can be backed up in PSE13 Windows and restored on PSE13 MAC.
Since PSE6 did not ship on MAC (it was a windows only release till PSE9), its backup cannot be read upon restore on MAC machines.
Thanks

  • Failure to launch Camera Raw 5.2 correctly on a Mac with Elements 6?

    I downloaded and installed the Adobe Camera Raw application, and I read the readme and followed the instructions (although I'm not positive that I did it correctly). When I open Elements and then Camera Raw, the loading window for Camera Raw pops up - but that's it. Nothing happens. The program doesn't load, but elements does not freeze either. Is there something I'm just not undertanding? Do I have to plug my camera in (Nikon D60) or do something else to get this plug-in to work? Please help - I really want to start working with RAW files! Thanks.

    Here are the instructions for installing the ACR update:
    To install with Adobe Photoshop Elements: NOTE: You must follow all of the new instructions in order to successfully install the Camera Raw plug-in for Photoshop Elements.
    1. Exit Photoshop Elements and Adobe Bridge.
    2. Open the download file, double-click CameraProfiles.dmg, and follow the onscreen instructions.
    3. Navigate to the root of the local disk (not the user's home folder).
    4. Navigate to: (Please read directory carefully)
    Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS3/File Formats
    5. Move the existing plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensure that you keep this version in case you need to revert back.
    6. Copy the Camera Raw plug-in, Camera Raw, from the download into the same folder as in Step 4.
    7. Launch Photoshop Elements or Adobe Bridge.

  • I have a Mac with Elements 9 and 10 the plugins all work fine. I was told that when I install full version of 12 it will find prior versions and collect the info. Well it didn't and none of my plugins in the filters menu show. I did select the same direct

    I need all my filters that are working in version 10 Mac to show in version 12 Mac. I have selected the same folder I had selected in 10 but only a few plugins show. I need all plugins to show. The install should have found the older versions of Elements 9 and 10 and setup properly, but the installer didn't do it.

    Also, no plugins transfer automatically from one version to the next. You must reinstall them, ditto for any third-party additions like actions, layer styles, etc.
    The only thing that a new version of PSE should find automatically would be your organizer catalog and photos.

  • Im trying to install Photoshop Elements premier 12 on my new Mac with the latest update and i keep getting the same failed to initialise message.

    Im trying to install Photoshop Elements premier 12 on my new Mac with the latest update and i keep getting the same failed to initialise message. I was able to register the key code at first but now im not able to either open the program or reinstall it.

    What is "Photoshop Elements Premier 12"? Do you mean Photoshop Elements or Premiere Elements? Were your files copied over from a previous mac that had PSE installed on it?

  • Help with elements 11 on mac

    im using a mac and elements 11 opens for about 2 seconds then goes away. its in the tool bar on top of the page but no way to edit or organize photots.  it's an MAC os x version 10.6.8.
    everthing was working fine until recently with leads me to believe i accidently changed a setting on my mac. help please??

    How are you starting PSE? The welcome screen, the editor, the organizer? If you were using the welcome screen, even the welcome screen set to open the editor or organizer automatically, don't. Go into the applications folder and launch the component you want from there, then go to the dock once it's running and choose Keep in Dock. Just don't use the welcome screen.
    The organizer is easy to find, but the actual editor is hidden away in applications>Adobe Photoshop Elements 11>Support Files:

    This should help. Photoshop Elements doesn't respond when you use editing tools in Mac OS X 10.10

  • Elements 8 and 9 in a Mac with OSX?

    I have and use elements 8 in a Mac with OSX.  Just bought a Wacom tablet that comes with Elements 9.  What will happen if i install the included software bundle - will I have two versions of Elements, or a mess?,

    You will have two versions of Photoshop Elements installed.  Your file associations will also be adjusted so that images open in Elements 9 as opposed to Elements 8.

  • Print Problems with Elements 9 for Mac

    I cannot print borderless (randlos) on format 10 x 15 (or any other) on my Printer Canon PIXMA MP970. With Elements 8 for Windows there is no problem. I have tried any possible combinations of adjustements and have the lates printer driver installed.

    10 x 15 cm is a standard European paper size but the choice ist not available in the paper size selection. The choices avaiIable seem to be only American. I have to define it as user defined (Benutzerdefiniert). I have contacted Canon but they have no solution for this problem. It seems that PSE 9 for Mac and Canon printer drivers don't like each other. A least the German versions. With PSE 8 for Windows everything works fine. There the standard European paper sizes and borderless printing can be selected with no problem. As mentioned in other topics rotating is although a problem. Lucky enough I have also a Windows system with PSE 8.

  • Printing problems with Elements and iPhoto on OSX 10.5.7

    I am having problems with printing photos on my printer (Canon iP4000) since getting the new iMac with OSX (10.5.7) and using Photoshop Elements 6 and iPhoto. The Canon printer driver (and all my other data) were copied to my Mac by the techs at the Apple store from which I purchased the iMac. (I previously had a Mac G4 with OSX 10.4.11 Panther.)
    Photos that used to come out crystal clear and brilliant on the printer from the G4, now are faint with kind of a white veil. When I try to print in Elements, I get a message that says "Some PostScript specific print settings (Interpolation, Calibration, Encoding) will be ignored since you are printing to a non-PostScript printer." I really have no idea what that means. Anybody?
    Text printing comes out fine, both from word processing documents and web pages. I am using the latest printer driver (4.8.3) for the iP4000 (probably 4 years old or so), and there are no new driver downloads available for it. I trashed the Canon software/drivers and reinstalled, to no avail.
    Canon Support has been helpful and have made many suggestions, but none has worked. I tried printing with Canon's EasyPhotoPrint app, and the photos print fine. So the problem appears to be a compatibility of the printer with Elements 6 and iPhoto.
    Has anyone else had this experience? Does anyone have an opinion if this means I need to get a new printer? If so, any suggestions on a good, moderately priced one for Leopard on the iMac that will definitely work with Elements 6 and iPhoto?

    The v4.8.3 driver she has is the latest version Canon has supplied.
    Given the driver is working okay from some other applications, there has to be something amiss with the colour management of iPhoto and PSE6.
    For iPhoto, as a test I would suggest the Color Options > Color Correction is set to None to see how this impacts the printed image. Then I would try the BJ Standard and ColrSync settings to see how the output is affected.
    During the Color Options trial, ensure the Quality & Media > Media Type is set to the appropriate paper type, such as Photo Paper and the Print Mode be set to Top Quality Photo. With regards to the Media Type setting, some of the paper stocks have a profile associated with them. If you use Photo paper but use the Plain setting, then you will get a washed out print.

  • Can I create a brochure (11x17) that includes photos/text with Elements?

    I'm considering purchasing Elements. My main need is to create two or three brochures a year for the nonprofit I volunteer with. Is that possible - and, more importantly, advisable - to attempt with Elements? I'm a mac user.

    I would recommend you take a look at the free Open Office utilities from Oracle which has publishing, PDF, spreadsheets and word processing all included. PSE9 would be ideal for image editing and for inserting into those documents.
    You certainly want to avoid Quark Express or Adobe InDesign CS5.5 as you will almost certainly be paying for features you will never need.
