Photoshop ELEMENTS 10  COLOR Handling

Does the new version of Elements 10 handle 8 bit color per channel ie 24 bit color as in Elements 8.
Or, does it now handle 16 bit per channel (48 bit color) as is PS CS5 does?  particulary in the Healing brush and other editiing tools?
I do understand that PSE 8 handles 16 bit color in some tools but not all.  It does not work with healing brush as an example.  I use this tool the most  repairing old scanned in negatives.
Also, msost scanners and digital cameras P&S and DSLRs now use 12 bit/Channel (36Bit)  or higher color. So it would be nice to have PSE 10 handle this level.

Same as PSE8 & 9 ( i.e.limited editing for 16 bit files)

  • ADOBE PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 7 Color Curves Tool problum

    When I click on the color curves tool it locks up at the top of the screen and almost fills the whole screen. There is no place at the top to grab it and pull it down because the top of it is hidden above the screen. Also it only shows thumbnail size pictures that can not be enlarged. I increased my screen resolution to 1280x800 and Photoshop decreases in size and the color curves tool decreases but the name of the tool and the close button at the top are still hidden and the color curves tool screen still can not be moved... Is this something I can fix or is this a software problem? I downloaded this trial version then upgraded it to a full version. I am using Windows Vista on a Sony Vaio laptop. William in Michigan.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 colored image became greyscale

    I had edited an image in a layer.  It is a full color image.  When I  dragged & droped it into a totally different photo, suddenly it appeared in greyscale.  The original image in its original layer is still full color. This has never happened to me before.  What went wrong, & how can I fix it?

    From the menu choose:
    Image >> Mode >> RGB Color

  • Photoshop Elements 11 | Strange handling of time zones

    Hi,
    I took some photos (jpeg) in Vancouver (British Columbia). I added GPS information to these photos and a time zone (xxx).
    Back home in Germany I added these photos to my PSE 11 ... and was astonished how the time information has been displayed by PSE11.
    Let's make an example:
    - an image has been shot at 10 a.m.. The image gets some GPS information and the time zone for Vancouver B.C.
    - When adding this photo to PSE11 (installed on a german notebook) PSE11 states that the photo has been taken at 7 p.m. (9 hours later)
    In my mind PSE11 is wrong. Although the photo has a timezone information the photo still has been shot at 10 a.m.  Why does PSE11 use the timezone information in in EXIF data of the photo? For the image organizer the time zone information in the EXIF data of the photos should be of no importance. Reagardless of the time zone information PSE11 should display the time at which the photo has been taken!
    I think this is a bug in PSE11.
    Regards,
    Oliver

    Reinstalled and it still crashes.

  • Printing with HP B9180 and Photoshop Elements 8 and Color Management

     I've got a bit of confusion about certain settings in the printing process and I've posted a rather long discussion of my 'issues' and confusion.  I hope someone can give me some guidance here.  I've seen a lot of these issues addressed in many places but I can't seem to find an integrated response.  Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read and respond.
    Color Management Questions
    My problems started when I was getting pictures that were too dark from my HP 9180 printer after having gotten very nice prints for a long time.  I had obviously started to do something differently inadvertently.  The only thing I think that is different is that I got a new 23 inch monitor, which does produce much brighter on-screen images.  So, I started to do some research and know just enough about color management to be slightly confused and have some questions that I hope someone can give me some help with.
    Equipment Background
    I use both a Canon 20D and a Canon PowerShot SD600 camera. Both have the default color space as sRGB, although the 20D can be also set as RGB.
    I also use Photoshop Elements 8, where there are a variety of settings possible for printing.
    My monitor is an HP S2331, whose color space is sRGB and cannot be reset to RGB (I think) except for temperature; the default is 6500K.
    My printer is an HP Photosmart Pro B9180 Printer, where there are also a variety of settings possible.
    I’m running XP-Pro.
    Here’s Where I Get Confused
    Everything I have read about color management (various web sites, forums, books, etc) says to have the image, monitor, and printer all in the same color space.
    Everything I read about PSE 8 (same sources) says to set PSE 8 to ‘Always Optimize for Printing’ under Edit>Color Settings in order to get the best prints.  This displays photos based on the Adobe RGB color space. 
    I am taking pictures in sRGB, and telling PSE 8 to process them in RGB by selecting ‘Always Optimize for Printing’.  Is this something I should be concerned about?  Should I reset my camera for RGB?
    Further, by selecting ‘Always Optimize for Printing’, I am setting PSE 8 for RGB while my monitor displays sRGB.  Is this an important issue or is it also much ado about technicalities that an amateur should not worry about?  It does violate the ‘keep them in the same color space’ rule.
    Next, when I go to File>Print and get the Print window and then do the Page Setup and Select Printer, I then go to More Options in the lower left of the window.  Under the More Options window, I select Color management and select Photoshop Elements Manages Colors.  Next, there is Image Space, which is fixed and not subject to selection from a drop down menu. 
    I understand that this is the image space of the image I took with my camera and that information is embedded in the image.  Correct?
    Next, there is Printer Profile.  But, from what I have read, this is where the IEC profile of the paper being printed on is supposed to be selected, isn’t it? 
    Shouldn’t this more appropriately be called Paper Profile, or Printing Media Profile?  Further, this drop down menu appears to be somewhat erratic, sometimes showing all of the paper profiles I believe are loaded, sometimes not. It also shows listings such as Working RGB-Adobe RGB (1988), Adobe RGB 1988, Dot Gain 10%, 15%.... along with a lot of paper profiles.  Aren’t those profiles unnecessary here?
    I’ve used both Relative Colorimetric and Perceptual Rendering and am happy with either one. 
    Next, when I go to Printer Preferences, in order to “…disable color management in the printer preferences dialog”, under the Color Tab, I select Application Managed Colors from the Color management drop down menu, and also have the option of selecting ColorSmart/sRGB and Adobe RGB (1988).  
    Is there any time when I should use either ColorSmart/sRGB or Adobe RGB  (1988)?  If I were staying with my camera’s sRGB setting, given the fact that the monitor is sRGB, would the appropriate selections be ‘Printer Manages Colors’ and ‘ColorSmart/sRGB’?
    Finally, under the Features Tab, I go to look for the same paper I selected under Printer Profile (Question 4 above).  If it is one of the pre-loaded (by HP) profiles, it is there, but if it is a profile I downloaded, say for an Ilford paper, it isn’t listed, and I need to guess at an equivalent type of paper to select.
    Is there any way to get that listing to appear under the Paper Type drop down menu?
    I know that this is a long post, but it helped me to clarify my ‘issues’.  Thank you for any and all suggestions, answers, guidance and help.

    RIK,
    Some printers have long names, esp. HP printers, and PSE gets ":confused." In control panel>devices and printers, right click on the default printer, go to printer properties, and rename the default printer to something short, e.g. "Our Printer." That may fix it..

  • Add printer profile to Adobe Photoshop Elements 7.0

    Hi
    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 7.0 running on a Windows/7 64 bit system.  I print to an epson 1400. 
    I wish to print a photo from the PSE editor.  Unfortunately the editor does not allow me to choose the appropriate printer profile for the epson 1400 & the paper I have loaded. 
    The profiles are correctly installed in C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color; and they are available to other programs, like MS Photo Viewer.  But PSE editor does not display them as a choice.
    PSE 7.03 does allows me to specify a printer profile.  After pressing control-P I am presented with a PRINT dialog box.  Among other things, I choose:
    Color Handling: Photoshop Elements Manages Colors
    Printer Profile: presents many options, including:
    - working RGB - Adobe RGB (1998)
    - working CMYK - U.S. Web Coasted ....
    - working Gray
    - and many others,
    but no Epson profiles.
    For Epson Premium Photo Paper Glossy I want to use the SP1400 1410 PGPS profile provided by epson.
    Does anyone know how to get PSE 7.03 to allow this choice?
    thanks
    John

    Thanks again for the helpful reply.
    I have not previously calibrated my monitor.  I am looking at that now.  but
    have avoided it because:
       1. Adobe recommends (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333356.html) that LCD
       displays not be calibrated.
       2. The colors on my Dell 2007WFP are the same as on the back display of
       my Nikon D80 within my ability to differentiate.  And they are good!
       3. The colors produced by the Epson 1400 were way off for some skin
       tones (specifically brown skinned people - about half of the folk who I
       photograph).  This was not a minor adjustment issue.  And sometimes they
       were off in the Green direction, other times they looked red or orange, more
       in shadows than in highlights.
       4. The skin tones printed from Picasa were very good (short of excellent)
       while the skin tones from PSE 7.03 were completely inferior - I did not
       suspect a problem with the monitor calibration or the printer - PSE was at
       fault.
    Ok, now I used the calibration tool that seems to be part of Win/7 - I got
    to it via the control panel:display.  I made no adjustments to the monitor -
    it seemed fine.
    I would like the printer to duplicate what I see on the monitor.  prints are
    a bit lighter than what I see on the screen.
    I am printing now with the following parameters:
       1. from PSE Editor
       2. Photoshop Manages color
       3. Printer Preferences
          1. Premium Photo Paper Glossy (I use epson paper & inks)
          2. Color Management: ICM & No Color Adjustment
       4. Printer Profile: SP1400 1410 PGPP (thanks!)
       5. Rendering: Relative Colourimetric

  • Why does Photoshop Elements 10 print dark and red, and not match the computer screen?

    I switched from Photoshop Elements 7 to Photoshop Elements 10.  I cannot get a print of a photo that matches the screen.  Photos are dark and red.  I cannot edit the photos because I do not know what will print out.   I have switched back to Photoshop 7 and my photos print fine, just as they have been edited.  I have spent hours on the Chat line with Adobe.  They have yet to help me resolve this problem.  Does anyone else have this problem or know what to do?  Adobe sure doesn't. I feel I have wasted money and am afraid to ever upgrade again.

    If you are using Photoshop Elements Editor for printing then make sure you have handled the color management of PSE correctly.
    There are two different scenario available in PSE to handle color management.
    Scenario 1 (When printer manages color). If you're known and familiar to your printer profile, the type of paper you are using and if you have any other customization done for your printer profile then in this case please select Printer Manages Color in Color Handling drop down under color management of PSE.
    To achieve this, follow these following steps.
    1. Launch Print dialog.
    2. Click on "More Options..." button.
    3. Now select Color management.
    4. Here you can see the Color Handling drop down. Please select Printer Manages Color.
    Note:- Use this scenario when you are sure a about your printer profile and settings.
    Scenario 2 (When Photoshop Elements handle color). In case you want PSE to handle all color management then please select Photoshop Elements Manages Color in Color Handling drop down. Then select the same printer profile as Image space.
    Note:- If you are using this option, make sure the color management of your Printer is off.
    Hope this will help you.

  • Photoshop Elements Organizer 13 crash!!!

    Hey everybode,
    since yesterday I have a problem with my Photoshop Elements Organizer 13. It appears for a few seconds and after that it disapears as soon as it published. No report and no apparent reason. After a millions of install and uninstall still tthe same problem. Even the troubleshooting of Adobe brings no solution. What can I do now??? Any ideas???
    I need help please!!!

    zna22121,
    Close computer down, and restart. If it does not work, it should, then re-install. But, do not attempt more than 200 at a time it just cannot handle it ?
    Good luck
    Ps. I just dislike Organiser, (it is too slow, and disorganised) you can go from PE 13 Editor ( My wife tried it and went back to PE 6 ) and Process Multiple Files only 200 at a time. in Photoshop Elements, Organizer may handle it ?
    We often do video production stills of 2,000 from PE 6 and we know it works ,when you use the images in Adobe CS5.5.2 Premiere Pro..for HD & Blue -ray transfers.. It is very easy ?

  • I tried to copy 2,000  photos from iPhoto (v9.2) to Photoshop Elements 13 Organizer. It looked like they all copied, but then I got a crash report that the program had unexpectedly quit. I can't get back in to remove any photos. What do I do now?

    I have repeatedly tried to re-open PE13 Organizer with no luck. The first time there was a message that the catalog was being organized and then it crashed. From that time on, I only get a crash message that it unexpectedly quit. How can I get the photos off the organizer so I can open it back up again? Thanks!

  • Elements 10-color management settings

    Using Elements 10 with MAC; color management settings aren't available

    My understanding is in the Print Command, there should be a Color Management option that gives you two options:
    -Printer manages colors
    -Photoshop Elements manages colors
    In Print command, I don't have that option.

  • Print Color Management Problem w. Photoshop Elements and Tiger/Leopard

    Has anyone tried printing with ICC profiles through Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac? Apparently, it does not work on Tiger nor Leopard? My prints look very dark and over-saturated.
    The Datacolor folks, who make the Spyder3 calibrators I'm using, say my prints look like they are being "double color managed," possibly once by PSE and once by the printer driver (even though it's turned off).
    Over at the Adobe Forums some say it's a problem with Leopard. I'm not so sure, because I found that printing color management works fine on a Mac with Photoshop Elements 4.01 and Tiger. Any comments? Thanks.

    Aha! Got it. Adobe has confirmed that the problem is on their end. PSE 6 is double color managing the images. Here's what one user got in reply from Adobe on the subject. There are two separate answers:
    Thank you for contacting Adobe Technical Support.
    After consulting with my colleagues about the issue you raised, I can let you know the following:
    The issue is both on our as well as the driver software side and the workaround we have given is the best available at this time. This issue is affecting all printers, not just Epson or Canon.
    The soft proofing effect that you are seeing in the print preview is indeed an attempt at soft proofing. However since Photoshop Elements managed prints are incorrectly double colour managed it is not as useful as it was initially designed.
    As to the exact details of why this occurred, we have no official information.
    We believe that this will resolve the issues you are experiencing, however, should the reply not help solve the problem, please contact us again, quoting the case number given above, and we will re-open the case.
    Answer # 2
    We have had word back from our engineers regarding your issue.
    The Photoshop Elements team are aware of the problem and are working with Apple and the printer manufacturers to get this to work correctly. In the meantime, the only workaround is to switch off colour management in Photoshop Elements and let the printer handle the colour management.
    Unfortunately we can not make an estimation as to when a fix will be provided. We will close the case for the time being as there really is nothing more we can do about this issue besides offering the suggested workaround. Closing this case does not mean that the research will stop however and the engineers are working on a solution to this.
    As the tech noted, let the printer handle the color instead. Tell PSE not to manage color so it is the step sending the data unaltered. When the print dialogue comes up, under the Color Correction heading, change the pull down menu to "ColorSync". In the menu below that, choose the correct profile for the paper you're using. If the Brightness menu is still active, look for any choice that allows you to turn it off. If none exists, leave it on Normal. If the options below that for Color Balance and Intensity are not grayed out, make sure they are at the center positions (no effect).
    These steps are the same as before, except you're doing them in reverse. Photoshop is doing nothing and the print driver is handling the ColorSync chores rather than the other way around.

  • Color space change when using photoshop elements plug in

    When I select photo and edit with photoshop elements, Aperture makes a copy of the file as expected, but I can see the image color/hue etc. has changed, why?  Is there some setting I am missing?  The color of the image shouldn't change, should it? Just doesn't make sense!

    Where do you see the color change of the copy?
    In the thumbnail or preview before it is send to the external edtor?
    When the image is opened in the external editor?
    Or after it is send back from the editor?
    I do not see any color changes when I use PS CS5; it may help to see a screenshot.
