Photoshop Elements 3 newly imported file superimposing

I am having a problem with newly imported pictures (tagged correctly in a new tag), showing up superimposed on top of another picture in a second tag. I can't figure out how this is happening. Please help!

Thanks for your reply, Colin. Let me explain more clearly and maybe you can help. Let's say I have imported Image #1 into Photoshop and tagged it with "Birthdays". A few days later, I import Image #2 and put it under the tag "Trips." If I go to the "Birthdays" tag and click on it, so that only those pictures show up in the organizer, for no apparent reason, Image #2 will show up OVER Image #1,with the tag "Birthdays". When scrolling through the pictures in single-picture view, I get to what WAS Image #1 and I can see for about 1/8 of a second Image #1, and then Image #2 appears, with ONLY the tag "Birthdays." In fact, if the original caption for Image #1 was, for example, "1965," that caption is still there (but now under Image #2!) When I try to recover Image #1, it is no longer there (even in "My Pictures" folder where Adobe stores the images.) I know it is still "underneath" Image #2, because, in instances where I have rotated Image #2 from a landscape, to a portrait orientation, I can clearly see the outer "sides" of Image #1. The end result looks like a "picture-in-a-picture."
So, my problem is really two-fold. Image #2 is showing up in a different place (although, in many cases, it is ALSO in the correct tag.) And, Image #1 is no longer retrievable (even when I attempt to go through Adobe's "reconnecting" process.)
Help?

Very important : your catalog does not contain your pictures. They are where you have imported them in your computer. If they are all under a master folder like 'My Pictures' or 'Pictures', you should set your backup software to backup those folders.
The catalog itself is mainly a database keeping all the information about your pictures : location, keywords, ratings, albums...
It's a folder containing the dababase and several other components. You find its location looking in the help section, system info.
The integrated backup / restore process in Elements saves both your media files and the catalog.

Can you somehow speed up audio recognition of a newly imported file?

When I import a new big file, it can take several minutes even on my very powerful computer for Pr to "read" it sound-wise. I can jump around freely in the video, but without the sound, it often makes it hard to make cuts before it is finished. It would be nice if Pr knew where I was in the timeline of the video and "discovered" audio "nearby" instead of going from start to finish in a linear fashion.

Nope.

Does Photoshop Elements support raw files from the Panasonic GH3 camera?

Does Photoshop Elements support raw files from the Panasonic GH3 camera?

Yes, if you have PSE 11 (not the mac app store version). You will need to go to Help>Updates in the editor to update ACR to 7.3.

Will photoshop elements 12 import tags from photoshop elements 5

See:

I suppose you are using the organizer : you'll be able to recover your PSE5 catalogs either by a catalog conversion on the same computer or by the backup / restore process.

Photoshop Element 11 import picture file

While editing pictures on Photoshop Element 11, I can only import and edit one picture AT A TIME, but I CAN NOT IMPORT my entire picture file for editing, why is that.
I can drag and drop each picture to the field for editing, but NOT the ENTIRE PICTURE FILE?

How can I get Photoshop Elements to import photos that it wrongly indicates are wrong or in catalog?

Had 17,000 photos on harddrive before installing Photoshop Elements 11 today. Had them well organized in a number of folders under My Pictures. PS found and imported only 467 photos. I tried Search, Browse, and import Files; was able to highlight folders and individual photo files. When I clicked Get Media, it processed for 20 seconds and came back with message that "Files are not in correct format or are already in the catalog." In fact, they are in the correct format (jpg - able to easily view with other programs) and they are NOT visible in the catalog. I went into Control Panel and enabled the Watch service, listed all of the files that PS had not imported from, and still cannot show more than 467 of my photos. Very frustrating, any suggestions? Running Win 7 on 6-months old Sony that plays Blue-Ray, with 8 GB RAM and quad core Intel processors.

This forum is amazing - thanks to all who responded over the weekend. For future users, some replies I found helpful: 1. allow a lot of time for the cataloging process. I had not realized it would be such a slow and incremental process but a day later it is continuing to add to the catalog - am now up to a couple thousand in the catalog, 2. turning off Organize and Stack visually-similar, and the corrective functions during the initial process speeds things up, 3. go into Control Panel, Administrative, Services and activate the Photoshop Elements watch function as soon as you install Elements, 4. it was helpful to repair/optimize, and 5. if you realize it is really messed up, uninstalling Elements and re-installing may work better than lots of little tweaks and fixes. Now if I can just figure out how to get photos ordered by actual date taken rather than random future dates that my camera or previous version of Elements 8 apparently assigned....

Adobe Photoshop Elements 5 - Import to LR (60k images, success!)

I have been struggling to get an import of my PSE 5 library to successfully complete into Lightroom without crashing. Ready to give up I tried the following which worked like a charm:
In Photoshop Elements 5:
File -> Catalog -> Recover
I ran the above which took less then a minute or two. After running that Lightroom was able to import my entire PSE catalog (~59,000 images)! I wanted to share this in case anyone else is struggling with application crashing on import. Before I ran this, LR would take 2-3 hours and then finally crash out after importing only 3200 - 3700 images.
I haven't looked at all the specific collections/tags I had but I'm excited that I do see lots of info in those areas that got imported in.

I used Elements 5. It has a serious database problem that I don't understand why it isn't better known. I watched my database grow 500K to 1 M for each edit of a file. It was not with true information because a Recover would put it immediately back to where it was. I was "Recover"ing multiple times per day. So my database was compacted when I imported.
I have one friend with Eloements and he experienced the same database growth. Why this growth would crash LR is another issue.
This is a very important point for Elements users to know! In the Elements forum if you have any problem at all they tell you to Recover your catalog.
Now look at what you've imported and let us know whether you got your tags and the condition of your tags (were they nested)? I believe part of my problem is some tags were written to the files and what was in the files themselves had preference in the import (without asking me). Hence captions reverting to camera info put in there by a misguided camera company and tags not nested because there is no nesting in metadata. That doesn't explain the missing tags though.
This should probably be put in the FAQ as a suggestion. It can't hurt.

Photoshop Elements 8 import from Epson Scanner?

How can I get Photoshop Elements 8 to import from my Epson scanner? On my previous computer, the scanner just showed up when I selected "Import" under File? I've spent 2.0 hours with the supposed "tech support" in India and they had no idea. I've been using Elements 4 on my iMac for years and it worked perfectly. Help!
I'm starting to learn that I just spent good money for Elements 8 for nothing. It would appear that Epson has refused to make a TWAIN plugin for Photoshop Elements 8 so it will talk to the scanner and the program seems to be filled with bugs wshen used with Snow Leopard. Anyone have any answers?

Photoshop Elements 10 RAW Files

How do I import RAW files from my Sony RX100 11 to Adobe Photoshop Elements 10? I think I need a plug in called ARF 8.2. If this is correct how do I purchase/install it?

Adobe Photoshop and Photoshop Elements use a free Adobe plugin called Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) to read Raw files from cameras. Different versions of ACR work with different versions of Photoshop and Photoshop Elements.
Since camera manufacturers all use their own proprietary Raw file formats for every model of camera they make, ACR must be updated for each new camera released on the market.
The Sony RX100 II was first supported in ACR 8.2
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
Unfortunately ACR 8.2 is only compatible with Elements 12 and newer. It is not compatible with Elements 10 so downloading ACR 8.2 will not help you.
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
Some options:
Upgrade to Elements 12 (paid upgrade) which can use the current ACR (version 8.4) and therefore will open RX100 II Raw files.
Download the free Adobe DNG Converter, convert all the Raw files from the RX100 II to DNGs then open the DNGs in Elements 10.

Photoshop elements not importing iphone edits, reverting to originals

Apple support told me Photoshop Elements is one of 5 applications that import iPhone pictures that have been edited in the iPhone photo software as they are edited. So I downloaded Photoshop elements and attempted my first import. Sadly, the pictures reverted to their pre-edited originals, the same problem I've been experiencing with my non-mac laptop. Any assistance appreciated...

ok. Night three...
and some photos!
completed another uninstall/install downloaded fresh from the site.
downloaded the 6.4.1 update manually from the adobe site and opened it from the desktop.
get the usual;
i click on the red adobepatchinstaller icon and i get this..
meanwhile, all my .cr2 files are greyed out when in photoshop/file/open
Tried to open my RAW .cr2 images in the adobe dng converter, but i just get this..
get the same message when trying to open the raw file through elements.
and finally!
when i go to the actual file, right click and open with photoshop, i get
All this happens when i also go through the automated process of 'elements/update' to get the latest camera raw plugin.
It also confirms that i have the latest version (6.4.1) when i go to Photoshop Elements / About Plugin / Camera RAW
Elements is working fine in all other areas. I have even managed to get hold of a .dng file and opened that up fine...
Any ideas, anyone?
