Photoshop elements 10 animated gifs show one layer only

I don't like this new version of photoshop elements (photoshop elements 10). When I try to edit an animated gif file, it says I can only view one layer and the rest will be lost. Why is this?

Known issue. This is actually because Photoshop CSx used a GIF plug-in that didn't support opening GIF files as layers. That same plug-in was sent over to PSE in version 9. You can get the plug-in from earlier versions to fix this:

  • Animated GIF duplicates each layer, only in production browser

    If you go to the website I am working on: http://www.headjobby.com you will see an animated GIF at the top of the page. It shows the identical text on two lines. However, I did not create my GIF as two lines, only one. Also, it only shows up in the production browser, not in the Preview.
    I am using Photoshop Elements 4 on a Windows Small Business Server with 2 GB RAM.
    Thanks,
    Bill Ross

    I am not a web designer expert, but right clicking shows it as a HTML file and not a GIF. The logo box in the upper left corner shows as GIF. I don't know if this is significant, but may give you an idea where to look next.

  • Photoshop Elements 7, slide show?

    Photoshop Elements 7, slide show? 
    I am attempting to create a slide show and upload it to my web site. I follow step by step creation the show. Choose a template and export to FTP. The recommended upload address ftp.mydomain.com ( I do enter my actual domain name ) does not work. The message I get is “resolve FTP server address. I then tried the ftp address I use to upload changes to my site from Microsoft Expression 4, ftp://www.mydomain.com. That also does not work. I have attempted several versions with no luck. What am I missing?

    I have no problem uploading changes to my web site using ftp://www.mysite.com . I have been doing that for several years. It is only in PSE that I am having a problem. I have tried several versions of the FTP upload address beginning with the PSE recommended ftp.mysite.com and ending with the one I normally use.
    Thanks,
    Tom

  • Animated Gif showing OK in Mac Email Body but not the PC

    Hello,
    Not sure where to post this (MAC or PC Photoshop forum), but I will try here first.
    I have an animated gif that is placed in a Microsoft Word Document and then Sent from there, as an HTML e-mail.
    This guarantees that the animated gif shows up in the body, not as an attachment.
    All is well on the mac side, but the PC just shows the first frame...The animation doesn't work.
    Does anyone know why?
    I have checked on Outlook 2003 and 2010...no animation.
    Thanks
    babs

    Hi Marian,
    I agree 100%...Unfortunately, We want to add a little bit of animations to our evites..nothing extravagant, but many of our in-house folks and clients use Outlook. We initially started to use the Word option, because we didn't want the emails to be just background images, as there were other issues.... but we couldn't send them as attachments either, as we wanted the evite to be in the body when they opened the e-mail, not an attachment. If you have any other suggestions about how we could use an animated gif in the body of an e-mail to show up in outlook, I am all ears!!! Of course, like Jeffery points out, if Outlook won't play them anyway, then we simply can't do it. I just have to believe there is some way to do this that will work for outlook as well???
    Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!
    Thanks!

    I think this is just the way things are.
    I inserted an animated GIF in an Outlook 2003 eMail, for which I have configured Word 2003 to be the editor.  It didn't animate while I was composing the eMail.  I imagine this is because it's still a Word document at that point; it isn't converted to HTML until it's sent.
    However, after I sent it (to myself), I can see the animation both in the preview pane of Outlook 2003 and if I double click the message to open it as an HTML message I see the animation as well.  In Outlook, I have the following options set, which seem to be pertinent:

  • I have been unable to get Photoshop Elements 11 to show in my Open With Programs

    I have been unable to get Photoshop Elements 11 to show in my Open With Programs list. The program is installed but will not show in Open With programs.

    Hi,
    You don't say which operating system you are using so I'll assume Windows 7 for now - try this.
    1) select the file that you want to open
    2) right click on it and go to the Open With option but select Choose default program at the bottom of the list - the following should open
    3) At the bottom of the list, there is Other Programs, you may need to scroll down. If PSE not in the list, continue with the following.
    4) Use the Browse button to browse to the following (omit x86 if on 32bit system)
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
    I'm assuming that you want to open the image in the editor.
    5) Uncheck the Always use... option, otherwise double clicking on the file would cause the editor to open by default.
    6) Click on OK
    PSE should now appear on your open with list.
    Good luck
    Brian

  • Photoshop Elements 12 (GIF Question)

    Can I edit .GIF files in Photoshop Elements 12?
    I can drag the gif file into the program, but it does not show up animated.
    I've test edited some gifs, but the only file that changes is the first layer of the GIF.
    Help?

    Yes you can. For animated gifs you place each frame on its own layer. Use 'Save for Web', select the GIF option, check 'Animate' and complete the animation section.
    Cheers,

  • Photoshop Elements 4 Slide Show Tips

    I just spent a weekend making five slide shows with Photoshop Elements 4. I made PDF files and DVDs from all of them, and I experimented extensively. Here are some things I learned:
    Making a slide show in Elements 4 is simple and reasonably intuitive, especially if you are familiar with the Organizer. If youre not familiar with the Organizer, making a slide show gives you a good opportunity to become so. Its worth it.
    As with any computer task, theres a learning curve associated with making slide shows, but its a worthwhile curve to climb up. Once youre familiar with making slide shows, making new ones is easy, fun, and very productive.
    Elements 4 lets you output slide shows as PDF files (.PDF) or Movie Files (.WMV).
    When one of the PDF files is viewed on a computer with Adobe Viewer 7.0, the show is animated in accordance with the timing set up in Elements 4. When watching a slide show, the user can press ESC to stop the viewer from stepping through the slides. This enables navigation buttons that can be used to move from slide to slide. In this mode, Adobe Viewers Picture Tasks Menu, Select Tool, and Snapshot Tool can be used to process individual images. Some of the possible actions are selecting and copying all or part of the image, printing it, and even ordering prints online. These are excellent features, but not obvious to everyone, so you should tell your audience about them.
    You can view the WMV files on Windows Media Player or whatever multimedia software you use. If you have a DVD burner and simple DVD creation software, you can easily convert the WMV files to DVDs.
    There are some pros and cons of each of the three formats:
    PDF can be played on any computer with Adobe viewer. Sound track can be unstable. Can't see pan & zoom. CAN copy and process individual images IF you have Adobe Viewer 7.
    WMV can be played on any computer with Windows Media Player or similar. Sound track can be unstable. CAN see pan & zoom, which are excellent slide show features (try them). Can't copy images locally.
    You can make a
    DVD from WMV files. It has stable audio and shows pan & zoom, but resolution is lower than the other two.
    In a few hours (from 12/5/05 AM), you can download PDF versions of my slide shows from the reunions page at www.ussrankin.org. The BANQUET one has the most features.

    Louis,
    I hope you are happy with the decision to go with the Sony package. I really like the flexibility of both programs.
    I'd be happy to answer some questions. I changed my Adobe forum profile so that you can see my e-mail address. I'll leave it on there for a day or so.
    Have you tried the Sony website and forums?
    http://www.sonymediasoftware.com/forums/default.asp
    I have always found them helpful, much like this one.
    I have to admit that my skills on DVD Architect Studio 3 are not as good as they are on Movie Studio 6. I cut my teeth on the first full blown version of DVD Architect [1.0]. DVD Architect Studio has so many more features and flexibility, it is amazing. The only bad thing about DVD Architect Studio that I can see is that it won't encode the audio in Dolby AC-3 format, which is the preferred format. If you use the audio defaults in the program, however, you will be fine unless you are trying to cram more than 60 minutes worth of stuff onto the DVD. Personally, I think that is bad practice anyway, because who wants to watch an hour of your slideshows!

  • [need help with animated gif - shows up fuzzy on IE]

    Hi,
    I created an animated gif in photoshop cs3 with combination of text and images in Mac.  For some reason, the text on the banner looks fuzzy on Internet Explorer. Do any of you know what is wrong with the banner?  Can anyone help me on this?
    Thanks

    How does it look in Firefox on Windows? By only testing one browser on Windows, you cannot determine if it is a matter of the browser or the overall settings for the computer.
    Do you have a page to share so that we can see the fuzziness or can you post the GIF file here?

  • Photoshop Elements 4 slide show pauses.

    I must create a slide show in Photoshop Elements 4.  I want to pause and speak to my audience, between slides, for three minutes, or four minutes, or five minutes, or longer.  It seems that 'between slide transition times' are pre-determined by PSE4,, with 2 seconds, 4 seconds and up to a maximum of 120 seconds, pauses.  Is there a way that I can determine the length of the pauses?
    Yours sincerely, Cogleylane

  • Fonts available in Photoshop Elements 11 Slide Show

    I am new to Photoshop Elements 11.  I am trying to create a slide show using "create" then "slide show" from the Media Section of the Organizer.  I have inserted some blank slides into the sequence and would like to use them as title pages.  I can only seem to find about 16 choices of font to write with.  I have used Photoshop Elements 3 for years and there must have been at least 100 or so choices of font to write with.  What am I missing here?

    PSE will use all the fonts you have on your system.  Are you sure you have your fonts in the correct location on your computer.  On my system I have 100s of fonts 98% I don't even know or use them:

  • I cannot play a video .mov file in Photoshop Elements 12, it shows as a blank white screen

    I cannot play a video file (.mov) in Adobe Photoshop Elements, only can hear sound, and shows as a blank white screen. 

    Margie
    Thanks for the replies.
    I did some homework on your camera, and it appears to be recording H.264 video compression, Linear PCM Stereo, with a .mov file extension.
    Let us do a check list to make sure we agree on the details...
    a. You cannot play back the video in the Elements Organizer 12
    b. Can you import this video into Premiere Elements 12 Expert workspace with the program's Add Media/Files and Folder/Project Assets? Does it then show up in Project Assets with an image in the thumbnail? Can you drag the video from Project Assets to the Timeline and have the Edit Mode monitor display that video and play it back there when you hit the monitor play button?
    From what I have read of your camera, you could be recording 1920 x 1080 @ 60 progressive frames per second. Can you supply an information on that? What are you or the project setting as the project preset (See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, and Pixel Aspect Ratio.)
    Could you explain what you mean by
    and can play it in the video editor, but it just shows the frames, not a real video play.
    I am searching the Internet to see if I can find a sample file that I can download.
    More later.
