Photo print like a pointillist painting.(Elements 9)

It seems that suddenly photos printed from Elements 9 either in Edit mode or Organize mode come out looking like a pointillist painting.  I know that my HP photoprinter is not the culprit because it prints photos and text fine from Windows.  I did not choose any special effects, brush strokes or filters.  This did not happen in one session only.  I have not been able to print through Elements 9 for weeks.  Can't find an answer on the web or in Help.
Any comments/help would be much appreciated.  Thank you.

I am thinking of erasing the program and reloading it?
Before you do that, you could try resetting the preferences to defaults by using this technique:

If thios doesn't work, then try to rename the PSE settings folder to something else.  The folder is at this link in Windows 7:
<C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\10.0>
Change 10.0 to 10.0(0ld).  Also, username = YOUR OWN USERNAME
It is worth a try but if it doesn't work then you can al;ways rename the folder back to 10.0 and so nothing is lost!!
You could also go to the folder 10.0 and see if you can identify something from the name and change just that folder name so that it is reset when you start PSE again.
PLEASE NOTE: YOU SHOULD BE DOING ALL THIS WHILE PSE IS SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY OTHERWISE YOU WILL CORRUPT EVERYTHING.
I am told that reinstalling PSE does not necessarily reset the preferences unless you manually delete the folders as well.  This is not an easy thing to do because these are all over the place including in the Windows Registry.

  • Tutorials: How to make a digital photo look like an oil painting in CS3

    Can anyone point me to a tutorial that shows how to do this? I have looked all over the internet - but can't seem to find a decent way to do this and achieve the effect I want! Thanks for any help

    I have been looking for something to create this same effect in Photoshop CS2. With all of the filters that are already available in Photoshop, I am surprised that there isn't a filter available to easily do this.
    The "snapart" plugin looks great, but I don't want to pay $149 to create this effect.

  • Can you make it look like it was painted

    can you make a photo look like it was painted with apature 3

    Painting runs the gamut from, say, house-painting to Jan van Eyck, with stops along way for Ellsworth Kelly, Willem de Kooning, and even that electrifier of turds, Thomas Kincade.
    You might be able to mimic a few of these with the tools in Aperture.  What do you have in mind?

  • HP photo printer that will work with a separate HP scanner

    I need to replace an old HP printer that doesn't have Full Function capabilities with Windows 7.  HP Tech Support told me they DO NOT recommend using more than one scanner per computer, so told me not to buy an All-in-One printer to use with my HP ScanJet G4050 scanner.  Possible software issues in the future.  
    Problem:  I'm having a difficult time finding a single function inkjet printer that will print quality photos and has photo black ink.  It must be fully compatible with Windows 7 & 8.  This has become a nightmare as it's nearly impossible to find a newer single function printer that does high quality photos.  HP seems to focus on the all-in-ones that don't have the capabilities of the older Photosmarts.  Such as separate photo tray, photo ink, gray ink, etc.
    I currently have a Photosmart 8150 printer that does a great job on photos and has photo black as well as gray ink for printing color and black and white photos.  You can't find a comparable printer like that anymore!  HP needs to realize that there are a lot of customers out there looking for a good quality photo printer like their old Photosmarts of 10 years ago.  HP needs to pay attention to their customers and provide support for their older photo printers AND manufacture printers with the same functions as their older models!
    Suggestions on new photo printers would be appreciated.  Thank you!

    Yes.

    Any of the ones listed there should work.

  • Elements 10, windows 8, 64 bit, epson artisan 835 printer: prints are really dark even after using enhancements like adjusting lighting. Prints are darker than photoshop edit screen. Prints are acceptable using paint, windows photo viewer, or gallery.

    In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
    That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
    Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
    Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
    While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

  • Prints too dark in elements, ok in easy photo print

    Hi,
    I have been treading around trying to find an answer to my question.
    I´m using Epson PX720WD and Photoshop elements 10.
    When I´m printing with the correct paper settings "premium glossy photo" in elements, my prints gets too dark. If I print them on normal paper and choose "plain paper" they seem better. And they are "perfect" if I print them in easy photo print - Epsons software.
    I read that I have to calibrate my screen and all, but I edit my pictures in elements, save them and open in easy photo print they are ok. There must be a way around, that I don´t have to calibrate my screen.
    Thank you in advance for answers.
    Btw, I´m completly new to this, so please don´t use too complicated words:)
    Brgds,
    Cecilie

    I found something that helped, I let the printer control the colors, and the pictures turned out like I wanted them.

    I'm a brand new Mac user. I want to send photos from Iphoto to my local store for printing, like I can do in Picasa. I can't find that option in Iphoto. I do not want to order them through Itunes.

    I have not idea how you do it with Picasa but with iPhoto you either export the photos to a desktop folder and upload from there or burns that folder to CD - or from the upload window use the media browser in the lower left hand corner of the upload windows - media ==> photos ==> iPhoto

  • Print multiple photos on one sheet in Photoshop Elements 11

    I want to print multiple photos on one sheet in Photoshop Elements 11
    I am using Mac OS10 10.7.5  I am using Photo shop Elements 11.  Could you please help me?  New to photoshop elements.  Thanks.  Jodie

    Well, you can start with File>Picture Package. If that doesn't offer a layout that works, create a new file (file>new>blank file) the size of your paper at the  resolution you want, then copy paste your pictures into it and use the Move tool to position them.

  • Elements 10 and photo printing

    I have just installed Elements10. After correcting colours on a photo I find that it does not print to the corrected colours. Printer is a new Epson Artisan837 with 6 ink tanks. I am getting great photo prints provided it is not done through Elements 10. I have manipulated all the settings that I can find but no luck.
    Any knowledgable advice would be most welcome.

    It`s mostly about correct settings. Please try:
    1) Launch Print dialog box.
    2) Click Change Settings.
    3) Click Advanced Setttings. This would launch Printer Preferences.
    4) Choose correct media type, print quality as per your need, mode (that depends on your image mode, so if your image is in Adobe RGB mode, you can check from Image->Mode) choose same. Usually Adob RGB gives good results.
    5) Now try one sample to verify.
    Hope it helps.
    Thanks,
    Garry

  • I'm having all kinds of problems since loading Lion and I really wish I hadn't bought it yet. Even after the software update today, 1. my modem still won't work, 2. Photoshop Elements produces muddy photo prints, etc.  Anybody at Apple listening?

    I'm having all kinds of problems since loading Lion and I really wish I hadn't bought it yet. Even after the software update today, 1. my modem still won't work, 2.

    10.7 was horrible unstable so I waited until 10.7.1 and tried it again. Well I have to say that it is still a defective OS. I am reverting to Snow as we speak from my carbon clone copy.. This is really the worst OSX I have ever used. It gives me random Kernel panics for no reasons, unstable airport and hundreds of small issues that are just not necessary. For instance I can't use QuickTime in Lion to trim a videoclip ( the UI goes mad and the trimslider becomes inoperable and hangs the Player window ) while in Snow it is no problem. Itunes gives me crackling sound when the equalizer is turned on, Graphical glitches in Photoshop, games crashing, Preview.app not working with some pdfs, so I need Adobes reader which I never used before.. It is definately not ripe for mass usage. Might 10.7.2 or 10.7.3 fix it, but not yet.
    * and just for the records : the hardware is absoltely ok. Because in Snow it works as it should. ( So many Lion fanbois are talking : "your Ram is defect", defintely NOT. - Lion is defect! ).
    Shame on you Apple.

    Hi Mukesh,
    I'd like to help, but can you clarify the issue?  Are you asking how to print a photo from your printer?  Also, can you confirm that your printer is a HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3525 e-All-in-One Printer?
    Thanks!

  • I can't order prints, Photobooks, etc. from Photoshop Elements 13 through my existing Shutterfly account.

    How do I set up Photoshop Elements 13 so I can print photos through Shutterfly. I have an existing Shutterfly account but can't find any place in Organizer or Editor to provide by Shutterfly with my UserName and password. If I select the "Create" button on the upper right of the "Organizer" screen, then select "Photo Prints", and then select "order prints from Shutterfly" I receive a "Welcome to Shutterfly" dialog box prompting me for information to create a new Shutterfly account (new User name, new password). Since I have an existing Shutterfly account already I don't want to create a new one. I receive the same "Welcome to Shutterfly" dialog box when I select a photo in Organizer then select "Order Prints" from the "File" pull down menu. I also see the same dialog box when I open a Photobook in the Editor and click on the "Order" button. So how do I provide Elements with my current Shutterfly information? There must be some way to provide it but I have not been able to find it

    You don't get any windo0ws like the one I have attached here?
    In the above picture I have BOXED the place where you need to sign-in to your Shutterfly account.  Also, please note that you have to be in USA to get this feature as far as I know.
    You do this from the PSE Organizer by going to:
    File >> Order Prints >> Order Shutterfly Prints
    Good luck.
