Photomerge panorama greyed out in PSE 11

I have just purchased and installed PSE11. The photomerge options don't appear under File New.  I have tried resetting preferences as suggested in the forum with no effect.  I have PSE 6 installed on the same computer.  Any suggestions?

  • Elements photomerge panorama greyed out

    I'm using Win 7, Elements 9 trying to make a panorama.  I click FILE, NEW, but then Photomerge Panorama is greyed out.  How do I make a panorama out of two photos?  I've tried loading the two photos first, but no luck.

    Do you have the quick edit open? You cannot use panorama with it open.
    Open the full edit and try again., it should work then

  • Panorama Greyed Out in PSE 6 on Mac

    Hi there,
              Just got back from the Italian Dolamites with my new Nikon camera. I want to try and create a panaramic view but it it grayed out under file new. Face is there etc;  I am in full edit mode
    I have searched the forum but am still a bit confused as to what files to delete etc; and how to repair preferences ???   Sorry if I come across a bit slow but deleting files worries me.
    Thanks Chris

    Barbara,
              First time I have tried to use it so I assume it has never been available. I am the only user on my imac so it is an administrative account.
    I have found one of your earlier replies where you advised to delete in libary pref; com.adobe.photoshop.elements.plist   adobe photoshop elements 6 settings folder  adobe photoshop elements path folder and do a repair permissions. I have
    done this and it is no different.
    I am running snow leopard
    Thanks Chris

  • FSE 11 Panorama greyed out?

    FSE 11 Panorama greyed out but other options available on drop down list. How can I restore the Pano function? Using expert mode.

    Go to the editor's preferences, click this button and restart the editor:

  • The panorama option is greyed out in PSE 11

    Using PSE 11, I select several images to create a panorama, then select Enhance -> Photomerge and the "Panorama" option is greyed out and not available.

    I have a similar problem started on 2nd July.
    This is my opportunity to say no solution has been suggested to this problem either my me or many others with similar.

  • PSE 10 - Photomerge Panorama Grayed Out

    I am using PSE 10 on a Windows 7 platform.  When I go into full edit mode and want to select Photomerge Panorama, it is grayed out.  All other selections for Photomerge are available.  Previously I had no problem on the same computer using Photomerge Panorama with PSE 8.  I have tried to research the forums for answers but cannot find any nswers for PSE 10.
    Thanks for any help.

    Well I finallly got it fixed.  Had to go to Adobe Tech Support.  It took them nearly two hours to resolve the problem.  It turned out the Presets folder which contains the Photomerge data was missing.  They tried to remove PSE10 and then reinstall it from my disc.  However we could not get the program uninstalled.  It kept finding an error.  The error had to do with the Presets folder missing.  They ended uploading a new Presets file and copying it into the PhotoshopElements 10 Folder.  Everything now works perfect.  Thanks for all your suggestions.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 Photomerge Panorama

    Why in Photoshop Elements 12 is Photomerge Panorama grayed out? How do I activate it?

    You need to be in Expert mode. Ciick the word Expert at the top of the PSE window.

  • Photomerge Panorama is greyed-out/ disabled?!

    I just installed PSE 8 on my Mac and everything went smoothly.  Having already played around with the trial version, I was excited to try the Photomerge Panorama function.  Unfortunately, as it did with my trial version, when I went to File > New, all the Photomerge options come up, but the only option that is greyed-out and unable to be selected is the Photomerge Panorama!  Has this happened to anyone?  Advice, please...

    Hi Zachary,
    Please make confirm that whether you are working in 'Guided Edit Mode' or 'Full Edit Mode'. If you are working in 'Guided Edit Mode' then Panorama feature won't be activated. It will be enabled in 'Full Edit'.
    You can check the mode by looking at the right top corner of Phoshop Elements Editor. The orange tab will be showing the edit mode. If 'Full Edit mode' is selected and then also you are seeing the same problem, please get back to me. Otherwise just change the mode from Guided to Full, Panorama option will start to work. Please reply me that this solution worked for you or not....

  • PSE 6 Mac - Panorama Option Greyed Out

    In PSE 6.0 for Mac the option for Photo-merge to Panorama is grayed out.  I've read a few other posts in various forums, so I know it is not my computer problem.  I've not read a logical or definitive fix for it.
    I have an iMac with the latest OSX, as well as Lightroom 2.3.
    Any suggestions/fixes?
    Thanks,
    Steven

    Hi Barbara,
    Thanks for the personal reply.  You might remember that I'm a recent 
    convert to the Mac (you helped me with the switch).  As far as I know, 
    it must be an admin account.  I set up the iMac for myself only, and 
    run everything else, Lightroom, etc., without switching any accounts 
    or other settings.  Basically, it runs from the same applications 
    folder as everything else; although, I put a folder on the dock which 
    holds my various photo app related software.
    I never tried to run it before.  I went to Yankee Stadium yesterday 
    and took a series of shots in anticipation of it becoming a panorama.  
    I used my rarely used P&S the Canon G3.  I had some difficulty setting 
    up the software for the iMac to communicate with the P&S, but once 
    that was done I got all of the JPEGS into LR.  I could also transfer 
    them into PSE6 for editing.  I just can't run the Photomerge Panorama.
    I could reinstall PSE6 from the original disk, if you think that makes 
    sense.
    Thanks,
    Steven

  • I have been using Photoshop Elements 11 photo merge function.  However, the Photomerge panorama function is no longer accessible - it is visible but greyed out on the "enhance" menu.  I have tried to reinstall software, but no change.

  • Photomerge Panorama in PSE 6 - Interactive Layout not completing

    I'm attempting to merge ten photos into a panorama using Photoshop Elements 6.0 on Windows Vista, and am having some problems. At first, I tried to merge the photos using the Auto Layout function; while this option completed, Elements wasn't able to line the photos up correctly, and I couldn't figure out a way to move the photos around using the Auto Layout function. So, I started over and tried to merge them using the Interactive Layout function. The screen comes up to allow me to move the photos around and line them up, after which I hit "OK" to merge them together. The process appears to start working, with a pop-up box coming up telling me that PSE is erasing holes and transforming, and I can see the different pics being aligned correctly in the different layers for the photo. Once all of the layers are layed out correctly, PSE says it is blending selected layers based on content, and the status bar gets to around 50% done, then the merge just stops. No error message, no more layers...nothing. Is there a timeout that's happening, causing the "blending selected layers..." action to just stop? It's running for around a minute or so before it stops.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I've tried to do complete this merge close to ten times now, with no luck. Thanks for your help.

    Photomerge PS5 was not working on my laptop but OK on on my desktop
    So I found a fix by comparing Photoshop preferences:
    > Edit > Preferences > Units & Rulers
    Change Rulers to cm (or maybe inches or something elese, but NOT percent)
    > OK, restart PhotoShop
    And miraculously, Photomerge worked again!
    This bug is probably noy fixed in PS6, so this may well be your problem...

  • PSE 8 - Photomerge Panorama not working?

    Trial version (is Panorama disabled in trial?), XP, default preferences
    File->New->Photomerge Panorama and select either 2 open files or 2 files off disk.    Tried Auto reposition, manual , and in both cases, the program thinks for a couple seconds and then shows me an empty file on screen (checkerboard) entitled Untitled_Panorama1.
    Tried a series of different photos, and have done this before in PSE7 with no trouble, so this is puzzling.
    Is this a bug?

    John, I want to add some other information for you concenring this problem with Photomerge Panorama in PSE 8 that you have been looking into, as I too get the error message you detailed in your earlier comments on this problem.  I tried your solution (saving for the web) and found that it did work but, of course, it is a pain having to do this workaround. Then, quite by chance I found that Photomerge Panorama was working correctly and so I tried several files, some of which had not worked before!
    Tonight, the old problem returned and I have been able to replicate both the problem and the solution.  If I have the Organiser open (which I must) but not the Editor, then it works fine. If I then try to do another panorama with new files, then it usually throws up the error message and fails to work. Any further attempts with the image files (or previous ones that have worked) also fail, ending with the error message.  However, if I close the application completely, and then reopen it, the same files will work perfectly with Photomerge Panorama.
    Maybe this throws some new light on the cause for you? (and hopefully Adobe if they read this posting).   Is it a memory problem?   (I have 1 GB of RAM)
    It is certainly very odd.
    On another matter, but kind of memory/processor related, although I doubt if you will remember this, but last year when PSE 7 was announced but before it was available, I queried the processor spec moving up to requiring a 2GHz processor  (it was a huge leap in spec from previously required processors and also not a size much then available for PC Notebook users!
    You kindly advised that you thought it was more a case of "sloppy marketing" which seemed to be borne out by some later advice that I received and sent you and others from Adobe Technical suppoort.  Recently, when I saw that PSE 8 required a 1.6 GHz or faster processor (the website spec sheet) I was pleased and thoughtful!  Today, my purchased copy of PSE8 arrived. (I have been using a free trial version). Guess what, on the box the processor specification is "2 GHz or faster"  So now we have either another case of "sloppy marketing" or perhaps, it DOES need 2 GHz and maybe this is the problem/part of the problem with Photomerge Panaroma not functioning correctly/consistently?
    Maybe though, it IS just a bug and one that I really hope that Adobe can address and rectify AND thsat we don't have to wait until PSE 9.  That would be very, very poor.
    How do you report bugs/possible bugs to Adobe or will you further report the issue, assuming that you can replicate what I have found with Photomerge Panorama?
    Hope this posting is helpful to you and others experiencing this problem with PSE 8
    Kind regards

  • Interactive Layout mode no longer available in Photomerge Panorama in PSE for Mac - any workarounds?

    Hello,  after having purchased a download of Elements 12 for Mac, I found out that the Interactive Layout mode in Photomerge Panorama was no longer available (it was available in earlier versions, such as Elements 11). Is Adobe able to exchange my version 12 for version 11, or is there some other way I can gain access to Interactive Layout mode? I have found that the Auto layout mode often results in a message that it cannot align the images to create a panorama. Thank you.

    In photoshop cs6 give this a try:
    1. Go to File>Scripts>Load Files into Stack, browse and load the pictures for the pano with the Attempt to Align and Create Smart Object unchecked
    2. Increase the canvas size of the document with the Crop Tool holding down the Alt key and dragging
        one of the crop corners out until you think the canvas is big enough to arrange your documents for the pano.
    3. Align the layers manually in the document window with the Move Tool as good as you can.
       (you can lower the layer opacxity so you can see the alignment better, but don't forget to put all the layers back to 100% opacity)
    4. Select all the layers in the layers panel
        (Select>All Layers)
    5. Go to Edit>Auto-Blend Layers and use Blend Method>Panorama and Seamless Tones and Colors
    6. After the blending it's possible you might see some whats looks like seams, so press Shift+Alt+Ctrl+E to make a merged copy on a new layer and hopefully that'll
        get rid of the seams.
    I'll make another post with directions for putting the plugin into photoshop cs6, since you probably don't want to install pse 11 just to get a plugin when
    photoshop cs6 is so much more capable than elements, for panoramas anyway.

  • How to open Photomerge Panorama in PSE 12. The option is not available when I choose File/New.

    In PSE 12 (iOS) I can't find "Photomerge Panorama". The tutorial says it should be available in the menu File/New. Yet it isn't.

    It's now under the Enhance menu in the Expert mode in the pse 12 editor.
