Photoshop Elements 10: Guided Edit options missing.

My Full Edit is working just fine...however, when I click on Quick or Guided Edit, the options for editing are all missing.
(These are the edits that come up on the right hand side.) I don't know if I clicked on something to make them go away...but
I have tried clicking on, "Reset Panel" a few times thinking that might work...but nothing has changed. Any idea on how to get
the editing options back on the screen? Thanks!

PSE 11 works differently. To delete the prefs there, go to the Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 Editor>Preferences and click this button, then restart the program. No keystrokes needed:

Guided edit features missing

I have a Mac running OS 10.7. I have Photoshop Elements 10.
When I select the Guided Edit tab, there are no options available. The only tools are zoom, hand, and set foreground color. Everything else is gone. The open file is centered in the blank page, and most of the menu items are unavailable, with the exception of filters.
I have uninstalled and re-installed the program and rebooted. I have also deleted the two database files, as suggested in another post, and they were rebuilt.
I do not have a lot of experience with this program, but I have read enough of the help file to know that there are supposed to be guided edit options available, such as actions, enhance colors, etc. The menu bar has very few options available from the guided edit window. In fact, the only way to get back to the full edit window is to shut down and restart the program.
Please tell me what is wrong. Thank you!

Glad you got it working. Just for future reference, to repair permissions go to applications>utilities>disk utility, click your hard drive in the list on the left side of the window, then click Repair Permissions. This can take a while, so don't fret, and don't freak over all the messages you may see scrolling by in the window. All's well unless you see a red warning at the end of the whole process that says that the repair failed. This is good to do after installing applications that use installers (as opposed to drag and drop into applications), and also after system updates.

Quick and guided edit options menus are gone

quick and guided edit option menus have disappeared. How do I get them back?

It's probably easiest to uninstall PSE10 and re-install it to undo any changes made by adding those actions.
Use the Control Panel to uninstall PSE, then check to see if any of these folders remain (change the "9.0" to "10.0"). Delete them if they're still there. (You'll have to temporarily allow viewing hidden files and folders by using Start...Control Panel...Folder Options...View tab.)

Grad Filter Edit option missing (3.5?)

After Loading the 3.5 RC I noticed when I use Grad Filters I do not see any of the guide lines or selection dots anymore.
It lets me apply a Grad Filter and I see the effect, but once I move out of the that specific filter I cannot go back and select it to edit or delete. I can remove it by resetting all Grads.
I noticed this after loading 3.5, but I'm hoping it is something else since I haven't seen anyone else bring this up.
Any ideas?

I figured it was something that simple. Thanks

When I upload photos from my old lightroom 3 program they come into photoshop at 14% zoom percentage which is what I want them to come in at so I can zoom them in to detail the skin. What might have changed settings wise between the 2 programs, I cannot figure it out.

What is the best motherboard to use with Photoshop elements 11 premium edition?

I'm going to build my computer by selecting components and having Fryes service put them together. I'd like to build a system with a motherboard that supports 8 gb RAM, and a 250GB SSD drive (SATA III) with a 750gb or 1 TB 7500 rpm slave internal drive or an similar 7500 rpn external drive. The system I build will have usb 3 and hdmi ports with a dvd rom 24x drive. It will have a Windows 7 premium home edition OS. It will have an Nvidea video card with 2 gigs of independent ram.
I'm trying to build a PC that works efficiently with Photoshop Elements premium version 11. I am a casual home user. I will be doing some basic video rendering of DVD home videos that I have converted to dvd from VHS and 8mm format.. I am NOT a gamer.
I have a monitor and therfore I'm only interested in building a desktop box with thease specs and I'd like to get the best quality componenets for my desktop build for $1300 or less.
I'm not interested in anything from Dell (alienware).
Any motherboard recomendations or criticism/recomendations of other components I want to use will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

It’s really a personal choice. I’ve recently bought a new Dell. Like you I was not interested in the consumer products so I purchased a business spec machine and I’m very happy with it. It’s Dell Precision T3600 with Intel Xeon CPU and Nvidia Quadro 2000 graphics card. Running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit with 8gb RAM. I got 1TB and 500gb drives both 7500 rpm with a 3TB Seagate external HD. I gave SSD a miss until prices drop further. I don’t think the extra speed is that relevant to Photo editing although perhaps more relevant to video rendering. I’m also not gaming or running other apps that might benefit from an SSD. Photoshop Elements is a 32 bit program which runs well on 64 bit systems but cant use more than 1.5 to 2GB of RAM. Premiere Elements has 64 bit support and can therefore take advantage of the extra RAM. At the end of the day it’s your choice.

Photoshop Elements 6.0 editing woes....

Not sure where this belongs but it has "photo" in the title....
This is also happening when editing with our iPhoto...
When I try to "save as" an edited photo as a copy, It goes through all of the steps but just before I can save, it asks me if I would like to save over the existing original photo. When I answer no, it cancels the edit. I therefore cannot edit my photos in either Photoshop or iPhoto without destroying my original..
What gives?.
Any thoughts would be appreciated..
Thanks in advace

Rick:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds

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. 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.

Photoshop elements 5.0 editing problem

I have installed and use Elements 5.0 on my desk top PC and it works great until i go to edit a picture. I get an error box that says, could not load FastCore routines module because file could not be found. then several boxes follow with similar messages for MMXcore and Multiprossor support. Finally it says, could not initialize Photoshop Elements, unable to connect to Editor application. I have tried several times to reinstall the program but with the same results. I have installed this same program on my laptop and it works completly. Thanks for your help

Have a look at this thread.

Photoshop Elements 6.0 / Editing using 'Adjust Sharpness'

After making the adjustments i.e., amount, radius, remove with Enhance>Adjust Sharpness and visually looking at the edits being applied to the image, when I then click OK, there's a few seconds of hesitation to apply the edits then the image will inexplicably convert back to be being unsharp instead of being visually sharp as it was during the adjustment. Why is the image not applying the sharpness changes as it does when I use 'Unsharp Mask'?
Using Mac OS X 10.6.2.

Barbara B>,
Appreciate, once again your quick response but my question now is where do I go to find / username>library>preferences? Is this in my Finder for my iMac or is this found in PSE? Did you mean to delete just 'Repair permissions' or all that was listed after your semicolon ?

Thanx for your patience.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Upgrade Edition

Just purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 10/Premiere Elements 10 upgrade edition from Amazon. Installed both and no where did it ask to confirm I had the older versions. I previously have had Adobe Photoshop Elements 9,8,7,6 and Adobe Photoshop Preimiere Elements 4.
When I logged into my account did it automatically validate I owned an older version? I just want to make sure it registered correctly.

Yes it will be automatic. If you click on My Adobe at the top of this forum you should be able to see all of your registered products and serial numbers.

Now, in photoshop elements 9 when editing, colours displayed are not correct, seems gama number has changes ?

up to now I had no problem when editing photos with photoshop elements 9. Due to an unknown reason/event the colours displayed , now, are not correct : it looks like the gama adjustment has been changed and the photo rendition is uncorrect. If I display the same photos with other photo editing software ( DPP from Canon for example, or Xnview) , the colours are correct !!... Can you help me ?
Thanks a lot !

Thank you for trying to help me. In fact, I resolved my problem by changing the default ICC profile for my screen : I entered the parameters settings panel, screen definition and then advanced settings where I could choose another ICC profile.
Thank you anway !!

Edit option missing from SOME photos

Several of my iPhone pictures on the camera roll do NOT have the edit option available. Most of them do, but several do not. I noticed that the pictures that do not have the edit option anymore are photos that I have already edited at least once in the past. Any idea why the edit option is all of a sudden missing from those photos, but is not missing from others?

Exporting Photos From Aperture to Photoshop Elements for Layer-Editing

Back when I paired iPhoto with PSE to do layer editing, it was easy to export the first layer-picture from iPhoto, then click-and-drag the second photo directly on top of the first in PSE, then 'stretch to fit'.
I've since moved to Aperture 3, and although I can 'edit in Photoshop Elements' the first picture, I can't drag or export so that it superimposes ready for opacity adjustment and effects...

What happens if you select both images in Aperture, and then click to Edit in External Editor?

Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 organizer program/folder missing from installation

I downloaded the upgrade to Photoshop Elements 12 from the internet in November 2013 and the organizer part of the program is totally missing as well as the Photoshop Elements Organizer.exe file.. With previous versions (9 &10) Elements Organizer has its own folder containing files containing the Photoshop Elements Organizer.exe file. but this whole folder is not present with this version 12 upgrade. I have downloaded the file and uninstalled and reinstalled several times to no avail. Can you advise how I obtain this part of the program.

I have downloaded the Adobe Support Advisor ( apparently been withdrawn according to the Adobe website) and it located no errors.
Again I say that the Elements Organizer program is missing as there is no Elements Organizer 12 sub-folder within the Adobe folder located in C drive where the program is installed (Photoshop
Elements 10 has an Elements Organizer 10 sub-folder and the organizer works fine).
Also on clicking the Photoshop desktop icon (loaded by the program installation) message says "cannot find Photoshop Elements 12.exe. However the program can be loaded from the PhotoshopElementsEditor 12.exe file, but the organizer button at the bottom right of the editor screen when clicked gives message " loading elements organizer workspace" and after a minute or so this message disappears and nothing happens.
The download is an upgrade version so I don't whether this makes any difference.
