Photoshop 8 Album order

A new album is created in newest first order as the album order. It isn't practical to rearrange every picture by hand in a 400 image album to show oldest first. How can that be done to make an album that would show in sequence as a slideshow?

Hi,
Try this.
Display all the photos that you want to appear in the album, either by a tag or in temporary album.
Sort the photos by using the Date (Oldest first) option
Create a new album
Select all the photos (Ctrl & A) and drag them to the new album and click on Done
Select Show All
Select the new album
The photos should be in date order and if Album order is selected, you should be able to move them around as you want to.
Good luck
Brian

I have 278 photos in Photoshop Elements 13 that I want to upload in album order to Shutterfly for a book.

I am using Photoshop Elements 13 and Windows 8.1. I have my photos in album order and I want to load them in this order. When I try to load them to the Cloud they become disorganized. I can not find a way to upload them to Shutterfly to make a book. Is there a way to do this?

This is a two part process. First we title the photos, then we export them, using the title as filename.
To title them
Once you have then in the order you want select them all and go
Photos -> Batch Change. Select set 'Title' to 'Text'
Choose a Title -> Graduation 2013 or whatever, then check the box at 'Append number to each photo.
Now, in the Album all your photos are named... Graduation 001, 002, 003 etc
Next Export them:
File -> Export, and in the Name option, choose 'Title as Filename' and complete the export.
Regards

now I'm trying to open the files in order to make some changes in the photos (cut them and so on), but I cant open them. can open them with the acrobat reader. but not with adobe Photoshop album started 3.0. I am getting a massage saying "the PDF file foes not contain any photos" and it shows the location of the file. the file definitely contains photos. what do I need to do?
thanks for the help, nilli

Is it Photoshop Starter Edition that is giving your the No Photos message or is it Reader?
If the PDF has photos in it, and you open it with Reader, you should see a toolbar called Picture Tasks. Picture Tasks will let you extract the photos.

Adobe Photoshop Album v.2 - Can I restore from thumbnails only?

I am a complete IT donut. I do not know the terminology and I'm not even sure I am on the right thread!!!!!. But here goes if anyone thinks they can help.
I have Adobe Photoshop Album v2.0 that I have been keeping photographs on. Someone who shall remain nameless deleted a file which has meant that some of the older photos have lost what can only be described as the 'back up' to the photo - if that makes sense. We can see it as a thumnail (with a small legend depicting that it is "broken") but when we double click on it the computer browses for a file that it cannot find - obviously.
Is it possible to restore the photo using just the information that the computer has kept in order to generate the thumbnail? There is no way we can restore the information that was lost as its years ago, but just wondered if anyone knew of a way to do this.
I know this is probably a lost cause, but thanks for your time anyway.

All that is stored in the Photoshop Album catalog file is a small thumbnail, which is better than nothing,I suppose. But we don't have any tools that would allow you to harvest even the thumbnails out of the catalog file. The catalog file is an MS Access database; if you could find a tool to crack open and rip out the resources, then you would have what you want, but I wouldn't be able to tell you step 1 on how to do that; just that it should be theoretically possible.
Good Luck!

Photoshop Album 1.0: How do I reconnect 350 "edited pictures" showing as disconnected files?

I purchased and downloaded PS Elements 13 64-bit Win7 from the Adobe website to a new Dell Inspirion 64-bit with Win 7 Pro. I have previously been using a registered copy of Photoshop Album 1.0 and Photoshop Elements 2.0 since 2005. The most recent use was on a computer running Windows 7 Pro operating system using the virtual XP to run PSE. That computer was fried by a lightning strike. However, I retrieved the hard drive in good working order with files intact. I am currently running the PSE program on an old PC with XP and accessing the picture files (9,600) on the old hard drive attached as an external J: drive. My goal is to transfer all picture files to the new Dell Inspirion where the new PSE 13 resides. I couldn’t get the PSE 2.0 program to access the picture files!
I finally figured out how to use MS Access to change the drive reference to J:/.
1) there were a number of line items that seemed to be anomalies in the Access table. Could these be a cause for the following disconnects?
It seemed that I was about prepared to transition to the new computer and PSE 13, but then after opening PSE 2.0, I found I still had about 350 disconnected files (indicated by a “?” in place of the pic icon). I then determined that most, if not all of the disconnects, had one thing in common: they were all “edited pictures” and obviously some of my most valued pictures. I have started to reconnect them one at a time, but it’s very time consuming!
2) Is there a more efficient way to accomplish these reconnections?
If I understand it correctly, the PSE acts like a card catalog in the library where it simply references the actual location of the original and/or edited files.
3) Ultimately, how do I transfer all the reconnected pictures and the associated files and folders to the new computer?
Thanks for any advice or assistance you can offer!
<edited by admin to be readable>

Thanks for your quick response. I respectfully question with your conclusion that I am in the wrong forum! Adobe Photoshop Album v 1.0 is the specific program I have used for nine years and that is the program I just reopened to verify it's title and that is the program wherein all the Adobe advice is to reconnect all my files before proceeding to convert to Photoshop Elements 13. The original box describes it as "The fast and easy way to organize and share your lifetime of photos." My apologies for even mentioning the Photoshop Elements 2.0 (the original box describes it as "image-editing software" which I seldom ever used. Apparently the functions of PSA & PSE has changed over the many versions, as I first went to the Elements forum and I can't seem to find anyone in the PSE forum to offer any help. Is Photoshop forum not the forum that would deal with Photoshop Album? There is a forum I see for Photoshop Album Starter Edition, but a quick review of messages seems to relate to something more recent than my product which is not entitled Starter Edition. Thanks for any clarification in getting me to the right forum if this is not it!

Converting Catalogs From Photoshop Album (2.0) to Photoshop Elements 13

My Photoshop Album currently holds some 23,000 photographs/jpgs from 2003 to date. Each is catalogued to provide a very high level of granularity to assist in identifying specific photographs and their subject content.
I have purchased Photoshop Elements to update the management of the collection. The Adobe information identifies it to be a suitable successor but indicates that there is likely to be some effort required to update the catalog. Using Catalog Manager I have attempted to Convert the old catalog which didn’t work because it “couldn’t be seen” in Elements. Further research of the Forum and other Adobe resources pointed to the Catalog Conversion Utility. Again this also failed to work.
I then reduced the number of photographs to about 4,500 (year 2014). I have noted by the way that this has had virtually no effect on the psa file size. As I gradually Deleted photos from the Catalog I have come across about 100 items which cannot be deleted and returns the following error message….
The ODBC data source reported the following error:
“[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Indicator variable required but not supplied on column number 10 (fDateTimeHigh)”
I have tried a number of ways to delete the photos including removing them from their folder; “Reconnecting the Missing File” with/without the same name in a different Folder; and generally getting myself very frustrated with my lack of knowledge. Googling/search for help and pointers hasn’t found the solution.
What or where can I find a way of deleting these errant files? (I have MS Access if this is a tool that might get me the solution.)
Note that one very old and small Catalog did convert and successfully integrated into Elements so it all works in principle. It seems to point to these problem jpgs.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Yes. Thanks for your reply. Just shows my age doesn't it! I've really got to upgrade my system from Windows 3.1.
Still it lasted me for quite a few years over its various issues and wasn't a bad investment for me considering I think it was a magazine cover freebie, though I can't remember whether it was issued on 5" or 3" disks!!!
Interesting to note that conceptually the original design was quite good and together with the new face recognition technology which is as good if not better than Picasa the PSE13 Organiser does a good job. It's a pity Adobe doesn't promote more of this side of the product. I wasn't able to find the replacement to Album as it was starting to struggle as the photo count increased and I hadn't been able to find an obvious replacement. Still that's over now.
All I have to do now is to raise a query as to how to order/sort certain tags and it's a near perfect product for me. Can't find the answer in the Manual(s) or FAQs - or I'm not using the correct query key words.

Invoking PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS from PHOTOSHOP ALBUM

How do I link to a previously installed version of Photoshop elements from within Photoshop album without getting to the "Buy Now" screen ?

Indeed, that is a wonderful question and we have yet to see an answer. When one clicks on "edit with Photoshop Elements," while using the Album Starter Edition, one gets an offer to sell Photoshop Album full edition--which I don't want!
I just want to be able to edit with photoshop elements.
Perhaps the answer is that, in order to make this switch, one has to purchase the full Photoshop Album? If so, just tell us and we'll quit bothering you.

Thansfer adobe photoshop album starter 3.2 photos to element 8.0

I've had adobe photoshop album starter 3.2 since I've had my computer. All my family photos are stored there. This morning after uploading photos the program kept closing. I clicked on the register and an email was sent to me telling me that as of July 2009 I can no longer get a unlock pin to open the program. I've been using the program with no problems until this morning. I called adobe and was told I need to upgrade to elements 8.0. I asked if I purchase the upgrade will my photos load to the new version? I was told yes. I ordered the disk and in the meantime downloaded the trial version until the new program disk arrives. Once loaded, the photos didn't load, nor was I able to manually load the photos from 3.2 to 8.0. I called adobe again and was instructed to now send this message to you.
Please help me to either "unlock" or instruct me how to obtain the photos from 3.2. I was very happy with the original version and have hundreds of family photos which I now fear I may loose. I'm frantic right now and need a solution. My photos mean the world to me and my family.
Thank you.

I need to transfer photos from one computer to another and have been searching in vain exactly where the tag information is stored. I have used Album starter for at least 5 years and currently have 3.0 on my old PC. I have downloaded and installed 3.2 on the new PC and was planning on updating to Elements once I get the photos (and tags) migrated.
<snip>
If you use Photoshop Album to subsequently download files from a digital camera or scanner, the default location where the program will create those files would be in the My Pictures>Digital Camera Photos folder. </snip>
I have searched all of the Adobe directories and the only files present are the actual photos. What type of files should I be looking for.
Thanks,
Dave

Photoshop album starter edition 3.2 and kodak camera

I have a kodak m753 digital camera and adobe photoshop album starter edition 3.2 says device not found. how do i get it to recognize the camera without deleting the kodak software. I have windows xp if that helps.

the camera is attached using a usb cable. windows explorer? do you mean internet explorer? i can look at the pictures in the kodak software it recognizes the camera but adobe doesn't. In order to get the pictures into adobe takes jumping through hoops. I prefer to use adobe because it is easier to get photos into emails etc. I just can't get them from the camera to adobe directly. I think the kodak software overrides adobe. Even if i shut down the kodak software adobe will not recognize that i have a camera connected to the computer. When i look in the folder called cameras and scanners it too doesn't list the camera. when i tried installing the camera it allways asks for the disc (which includes the kodak software)

Viewing Photos in Album Order

How do I view photos in Album Order I have created in Photoshop Elements album in Revel mobile album ??

This might help:
in sort by 'Oldest' the arrangement of images in album is same in both adoberevel.com and in Elements Organizer.
In sort by 'Newest', if it is not the same, and if you want to make it look the same, you can open Organizer preferences, navigate to 'General' category and click the radio button for 'Show newest first within each day' and then close the preferences. Once done, the order of images on adoberevel.com and in Organizer will be same.

Thanks,

I too wish to transfer all my previous tagging to a new computer. I have done a search and found the following folder and files called "My Catalog", including two with the .psa suffix.
Which do I copy across to my new setup, please?

A need to get photos of my baby from Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 but I don't have a code so I cannot access in it. Somebody can help me, please?

Two days ago I introduced photos of my baby into my PC and automatically went into the programm Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2. Then they were deleted of my photo camera. Then I wanted to access to the photos in the Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 but I read that since the end of Juny we need a decodification code and that now it is not availabel. So I don't have this code and I need to access to the photos. Please, somebody can help me?. Thank you.

Thank you for your help, Gunjan, but I have already tried to contact adobe tech support and I cannot get a code still now. I just find fixed issues where there is not shown my problem and I cannot find the way to write my question about my need of a code for Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2. Could you or somebody tell me the way to get the code through adobe.
Thank you

Thumbnails in Photoshop Album SE & disconnected files

I need to know what I did wrong to avoid this from happening again AND I'm hoping there's a solution out there for me.
(Please note, I am DESPERATE and am trying to salvage deleted photos.)
Here's what happened: Part I: Turning thumbnails into working images.
1. I connect a digital camera card reader to my computer to "download" photos using Adobe Photoshop Album SE.
2. This has always worked fine, and then I modify the pics, which creates a file that has the original file name with the word "edited" in it.
3. Recently, I went through the same process of connecting my card reader via USB, and "downloading" all my files into Photoshop Album SE.
4. As per usual, I choose the download & delete setting.
5. I decided I would edit some of the photos at a later date.
6. When I reopened Photoshop Album SE last night, all the pictures I THOUGHT I had downloaded said they were "disconnected" showing a file path to the card reader, drive e. I was totally shocked. The files ALWAYS downloaded to c:/documents and settings/[my user name]/my pictures/adobe
7. So this time I can see all the thumbnails in the "view all" setting of Adobe Photoshop Album SE, but cannot get to any of the pictures. I get the "disconnected" popup.
I suspect I am screwed but I'm hoping someone can help me.
I clearly see all the thumbnails in the "view all". Is there ANY WAY the thumbnail images can be converted to real images? Where are the thumbnails stored that Photoshop can show them and say they need to be reconnected to the source which, in this case, Photoshop DELETED when "downloading"?
Which brings us to Part II: What the hell happened?
You'll notice I keep putting "downloading" in quotes. When I say, "Get all pictures" from my card reader, I thought all my pictures were being copied into the album. That's the way it's always worked previously.
Why didn't it work this last time? Was it a memory issue? Does Photoshop Album SE have a limit on how many photos can be loaded into any one album?
Is that why it "captured" the images but didn't really download them?
Any, and I mean, ANY assistance anyone can give me with this would be greatly appreciated. These particular photos I really, really need and staring at those thumbnails, unable to do anything with them is maddening.
Thanks,
Deidre

Hi Zona,
Do you have "System Restore" set up in Windows? I've actually never used it,
but it appears it MIGHT be a possibility if you did NOT store the images in
My Documents or a subfolder of it.
See the following:
"System Restore protects your personal files by not restoring any files in
the My Documents folder. It also does not restore any files that use common
data file name extensions, such as .doc or .xls. If you're not sure whether
your personal files use common data file name extensions, and you do not
want the data files to be affected by System Restore, save them in the My
Documents folder."
There are applications that can take previous "HDD images" (residual
signatures) so that you can possibly recover your images, but you would need
to take this to a special vendor for this. If the images are precious, this
might be your best option. Obviously it will cost some money but I know this
can be done... I just can't advise you on the where's and how's. You would
need to contact vendors in your location.
Cheers
