Photo storage in Elements 8 - help please

This is probably a very stupid question, but I'm a new user of Photoshop Elements 8 and would appreciate a little bit of help. I am used to storing photographs in 'My Pictures' on Windows. I'm not quite clear whether I should transfer everything I have into the Organiser, or just leave well alone.
In short, do i need to use 'my pictures' anymore?
Thanks,
Keith

Hi jon,
Brilliantly simple and straightforward answer. I understand now, thanks very much.
There may be more stupid questions to come as I'm only on page 33 of the manual, but I shall ask with confidence.
Thanks again,
Keith

I need to retrieve photos off my iphone4 help please?

ok so recently i dropped my phone down the toilet which obvs caused water damage, my istincts where to act quickly and dry it off, however im a stupid teenager and decided to charge it into a power source ( i did this out off sheer panic) i know now i shouldn't have, i then asked my friends what to do and they said chuck it in a box of rice to dry out, so i did this and left it for around 24 or more hours i then plugged it into a power source again as it won't work without one. however it just turned itself off.
my problem is i didn't back my phone up properly last time it was plugged into itunes and the photos on there are part of my studies for my to pass my exams :/ which are round the corner! i have tried everything to get these photos off my phone but everything has failed. Even plugging it into the computer itself
im contacting my insurence about this all tomorrow as i need a phone as well as this ones now fried. but my main problem is these photos and if anybody has any clues or what so ever i would really appriciate it as im having a massive freak out purly based on a few photos appart from that its just a phone!
i also don't have icloud memory left so it won't have backed up with that :/

Hi.
1st keep in mind that iCloud storage is different from photo stream storage, so you may not have backed up your iPhone as you said since you have no iCloud Storage but still there is a possibility that they are in photo stream storage. Apart from that I can only tell you that the main thing is somehow have the iPhone plugged in into a computer so you can import all pictures but if the computer does not see the device i´m afraid that you may not recover the pictures.

Cannot view RAW pics or update Elements, help please!

Hi, I have a new Panasonic Lumix FZ28 and I just bought and installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac. I just returned from vacation where I used my new camera, but when I tried to view my pics, only my jpeg files show up. So, I tried to update Elements which installed normally, but it will not update. It says, "The updater is unable to locate the product to be updated"! What?? It's trying to update the RAW 4.6 update. I don't know what to do.
iPhoto won't upload my RAW pics either. It shows them on the screen, but won't import them. I also tried copying the memory card to my external hard drive, which it did, but it also doesn't show my RAW pics. Why is this so difficult!
Any help would be greatly appreciated! This is all new to me.
Thanks!

Perhaps true, but no other application I know of will completely manage an accurate transfer of data from one computer to another. Indeed, given the complexity inherent in data transfer a 100% transfer in every respect may well have success odds greater than that of Powerball which, I'm told, would give the ticket purchaser a much better chance of getting struck by lightning twice before receiving a winning number.
In any case, I have learned from participation in other forums that too much information is usually more damaging in the quest for the "magic" logic process that delivers solution. Hence my restriction to information I felt was not only application specific, but relevant.
I thank you in no small amount. There was no way I could have figured out Adobe was leading me on a wild goose chase for the holy grail. Not their fault. A big company with lots of products can't help but miss a few links here and there. Your attention to forum posts and willingness to help has been extremely informative and hugely appreciated. I hope this discussion thread will be of value to others.
Thank you.

Uploading photos to MobileMe Gallery - Help please

I have MobileMe and have created a public folder for uploading photos to. On my iPhone, I can click on a photo and see the option to send the photo to MobileMe. When I go to my MobileMe on the web, the photo is there BUT it is only 800x600 instead of full resolution. I'm assuming that since it e-mails the photo to MobileMe from my iphone, it must reduce the resolution, eh?
Is there a way to prevent it from reducing the resolution? I just want to be able to upload my iphone photos to MobileMe while on the go. I understand that the MobileFiles 2.0/Pro application gives you the ability to access your iDisk storage, including uploading from the iphone to idisk. However, I cannot seem to confirm whether it will allow me to upload photos that I've taken with the iphone's camera or if the uploads have to be from within the MobileFiles app? Also, will this also result in a reduction of resolution?
Thanks! Any other suggestions/solutions on how to easily upload photos I have taken with the iPhone's camera to my MobileMe account would be appreciated.

How many galleries do you have? If only a few try deleting them manually from the iDisk/Web/Sites/_gallery folder and republish from iPhoto.
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) 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 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: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Adobe Lightroom Photo editing question! Help please

Hey there, I'm trying to find a way to edit a certain part of a picture rather than the whole thing. For instance, if I want to make a small area black and white, while I increase the saturation of another area, and decrease the temperature of another area. How do I go about selecting only part of the picture, edit it, and then revert back to the whole picture and edit another part of the same picture? Please help me. I am using Adobe lightroom.

Is there any way to get a square section and edit it? I watched the movie which was extremely informative but still there was no way demonstrated to edit a particular area besides by using the mouse to just paint over it or drag through a huge section of the picture.

Web photo album error - need help please

I am using the newer version, which is Web Phot Album 2.1. It
used to work fine, i installed the new update for dreamweaver and
now it doesn't work. When i did update dreamweaver, I did what it
said and disabled the exentions. So, to the problem. When I click
on the open files button to choose which pictures i want, it gives
me this error :
' A script in file C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
MX\Configuration\Shared\Common\Scripts\dwscripts.js has been
running for a long time. Do you want to continue?'
so after i click yes, it will build the images using flash,
but it will not create any of the html or any of the html pages.
please let me know if anyone has any other ideas?????

In addition to the missing correlation between the
amsSettings table and at least one of the other tables per Ken's
suggestion (which will give you a Cartesian join if unresolved),
you should either remove the double quotes from the
#SESSION.auth.NewLinesNo# parameter if it is numeric, or use single
quotes if it is a text field ('#SESSION.auth.NewLinesNo#')

Exporting photos after editing? - Help please!

Hi all, first post and all that...
I've recently started using lightroom 3, but i'm having trouble exporting my edited files.
I've added the files to lightroom from their original location on my external hard drive, made neccesary adjustments, but i can't seem to then get copies of my edited photos. I want to send them to someone, but when i go through the exporting process to a file on my desktop, they come out in their original unedited format. I've worked out how to export to facebook/flickr, but they lose their size and quality this way.
I'm sure this is a really simple question, so apologies, but if anyone could talk me through how i can duplicate and export my edited photos from lightroom to my desktop, that would be amazing!

Highlight the images you wish to export.
Ctrl-Shift-E to open the export dialog.
Change the top drop-down list to Hard Drive.
Choose a location for the files in the Export Location section.
Adjust file naming if necessary.
In the File Settings section make sure you have the correct output format selected and choose a quality (85 is fine for most things and keeps file size manageable).
Make file size changes as appropriate in the Image Sizing section.
If you are downsizing a lot then consider adding some output sharpening.
Click Export.
Hopefully that covers most things.

TS4403 I can't see my photos from Photo Stream on Windows, help please!

In my PC, on the Photo Stream folder appears no pictures, I've sync a lot of times the iPad to iTunes and the pictures doesn't appear. I have no longer space on my iPad and I need to have my PhotoStream on my laptop! Thanks

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

TIMELAPSE - from Still photos.. experts help please...

We are trying to create a timelapse from STILL photos and have a few questions:
1. WE shot on a NIKON still camera in the RAW format. What format works best to bring it into FCP (4372 x 2906)... we will export this both as an SD project and an HD project.
2. This is over a period of two weeks and there are some slight pixel shifts. I've exported a file and analyzed with SMOOTH cam but it seems to try and track the clouds or other moving objects.. any thoughts on this? or maybe using some better tracking out there? Motion? After Effects? How? Or is there any program that can AUTO ALIGN the photos (stills) BEFORE i bring them into FCP.
3. Very odd. I've tried PCT files and TIFF. TIFF seems to keep the best resolution and colour yet when i try and export it as an HD project (using h.264 or DVC-PRO HD codecs) it encodes the first few photos and just exports one still photo for 7 or so seconds.. in the time line it looks fine as i scrub through it, but exporting or rendering it gets confused... any ideas?
4. ANY IDEAS WOULD BE MOST WELCOMED. or thoughts.
Thanks so much

Could you not just make a QT movie in QT Pro? I'm not really sure why you're doing this in Motion. If you're doing other things to the clips, I'd be tempted to take your image sequence into QT Pro and create an HD clip of it first off. Then bring it into Motion to do whatever else it is you're doing.

I have just installed PE13 on a new Mac. When I try to open photos it crashes. Help!

I have just installed PE13 on a new Mac. When I try to open photos it crashes. Help please.

If you haven't already done so, then try closing the Message app via the taskbar and see if it works when you re-open the app : from the iPad's home screen double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Message app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Non-existent photos taking up 2.7 GB storage space -- help please!

My iPad 3 says, under Settings\General\Usage\Storage, that I have 2.7 GB in "Photos & Camera", and specifically 2.7 GB under "Camera Roll." I have deleted *everything* from Camera Roll manually -- there is nothing there. Yet it still is taking up 2.7 GB of storage and preventing me from installing apps.
I tried syncing it with iTunes on the computer and telling it to remove all photos; didn't work. I tried swiping to the right on "Camera Roll" in the Settings, which gives me the option to "Delete" -- which I click, and it does nothing (except freeze that icon so I can't swipe it anymore until I close or open settings -- let it sit for 2 hours once and it did nothing else). I've done everything but reset it to factory defaults.
I am not sure what caused it, but when I first got the iPad, I did tell it to sync a bunch of photos during initial setup. I then realized how much room they were taking up and promptly removed them (I don't remember if I did it manually or by a re-sync). But they are long gone, and the 2.7GB storage remains...
Can anyone help, please? Thank you!

Restore. Note that it's not quick. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
