Photoshop Elements 5.0 Question - Barbara Brundage

I saw in Staples Photoshop Elements 5.0 after rebates the cost was $39.99.
I currently have Elements 4. Disappointment because not be able to
create a DVD slideshow and show on TV screen.
Question: Does Elements 5.0 software as shown in the Staples ad and
Elements 5.0/Premier the same software package. I called Adobe and the
salesperson could not sell the software for $39.99. He said Elements 5.0
would create a DVD but I needed Premier to create DVD slideshow. Otherwords, is Elements 5.0 and Premier two different software packages. If they are can I just purchase Premier and use with Elements 4.0. My main objective is to create a DVD slideshow and show the slideshow on a TV screen using a DVD player. Thanks

Wayne,
Since your main objective is to create DVD slideshows, you should take a
look at ProShow Gold (http://www.photodex.com/products/proshowgold/).
ProShow Gold is designed specifically for making slideshows and gets top
reviews.
Premiere Elements is designed to make digital movies. I've used it to
create create slide shows with excellant results, but, if all you want is
slide shows, ProShow Gold is probably a better bet.
The current version of Premiere Elements is version 3.0 and you can buy it
separately. However, the feature that let's you create a slideshow in
Photoshop Elements and pass it to Premiere Elements 3.0 to burn a DVD only
works with Photoshop Elements 5.0 not 4.0.
Photoshop Elements 4.0 works with Premiere Elements 2.0. If you are using
Photoshop Elements 4.0, you will have to import the slides into Premiere
Elements 3.0 and create the entire slide show there.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 Installation Question

    How can I tell if my software installed properly? The software came with three discs, and it only installed the first disc. I am new to Photoshop, and do not know if my software installed properly? Can anyone help?

    Gautham K,
    Thank you for your quick replies. I have checked,and my OS is indeed 64 bit. I have been using the 32 bit version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 10, since I installed it last evening. I have a few quick questions;
    Will I loose any functionality if I stay with the 32 bit version versus un-installing and installing the 64 bit version from disc 2?
    If I decide to un-install, and re-install from disc 2, will there be any software registration issues (as I have already registered the software)?
    Thanks again for all of your help.
    Jim

  • Photoshop elements mac, newbie questions for webshop

    Hello all,
    My name is Jelle and i have photoshop elements for mac, which i mostly use to create banners, headers and backgrounds for my website www.dagelijkseluxe.nl.
    Though this is my question, i think there are a lot of people like me, bumping in the same problems. Maybe it's an idea to have a webshop webinar someday (or i missed it) for some basic functions mostly used for websites. Like easy banner creation, background adjustments for sites and products, best product presentation, etc.
    Even though i mostly use the guided editing, i sometimes venture off and try to use the full editor. Now, this must be too easy for most of you powerusers, but the background of the webshop is still a bit to dark to my liking. However i feel i have reached all i can do with the different sliders presented in the guided tour.
    Is there an easy way to "mistify" the background or any photo for that matter?
    I also save the files as PNG as per recommendation from the sitebuilder. what's the difference with interlaced and non interlaced saving.
    Thank you in advance for your time!
    Kind regards,
    Jelle Dingemans

    You could use:
    Filter >> Blur >> Gaussian Blur
    That should mystify or blur your image.
    Interlaced is a better method for displaying mainly large images on monitors - but you get a slightly larger file. Small images tend to load very quickly so non-interlaced will keep the file size down.

  • 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,
    Neale

  • Photoshop Elements 4.0 question

    I own Photoshop Elements 4.0. I am unable to download photos from my iPHone to my Windows laptop.  The photo downloader reports it has encountered a problem and must shut down.  Is there a solution?

    Try downloading images directly to a folder on your hard drive, if possible.
    Then use the Organizer menu:
    File >> Get Photos & Videos >> From Files & Folders

  • Photoshop elements 10 saving question

    I have photoshop elements and I am having trouble saving my photos as Jpeg's. I only see saving them as a DNG. I am new to this! Any help !!?

    Not sure why you are being taken to bridge unless you have made a file association for all raw files.
    You should be taken to Adobe camera raw.
    The open image button is to the bottom right.
    I assume no thumbnail is showing up in Bridge or a blank filename. You can usually highlight a file in Bridge and then click on the circular aperture symbol below the tool bar to launch directly into camera raw.
     Click to view
      You could check your settings by launching the Editor. On the menu bar click Edit à Preferences à Saving Files
    Make sure the box is checked “Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for supported Raw Files”

  • Cannot download recently purchased Photoshop Elements 12 [was:question]

    i canot download the photoshop 12 I just purchased. I also have photoshop 9 elements on computer.should i have bought photoshop 12 elements?

    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-12-direct-download-links-premiere.html
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem downloading, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com) which results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com

  • New Photoshop Elements 12 Installation - Questions

    I just downloaded Elements and Premier Elements from Amazon.
    The installation folder has three EXE files "PhotoshopElements_12_      "  ending in
    WWEFDJ.exe
    WWEFDJ_win32.exe
    WWEFDJ_win64.exe
    There are no installation instructions.
    Does anyone know what each file does and the differences in installation?

    My mistake
    The files are actually named
    PhotoshopElements_12_WWEFDJ.exe
    PremiereElements_12_ WWEFDJ_win32.exe   
    PremiereElements_12_WWEFDJ_win64.exe
    The first is the Photoshop installer and it appears that Premiere has a separate installer for the 32 bit and 64 bit versions.
    Thank you

  • Photoshop Elements 10 Install Question

    Hi,
    I purchased an upgrade to Elements 10. I hit the download button and it appeared to download the installer and then the program. When I came back the window was closed.  Here's the hitch--I can't find the program on my computer. What do I need to do?  Adobe is closed today and their chat person couldn't help.  Thanks so much!!

    Thanks for your help. I chatted with technical support and they got me sorted out.

  • Photoshop Elements 6 -cropping question

    Hi,  I've been using it with no problem until this week.  Whenever I crop a photo (doesn't matter the original photo size is, or to what size I crop), the resulting image comes out miniscule.  I'm sure I unknowingly change some setting on the tool bar.  Any help would be great.  Thanks!

    At the far left of the options bar there's a tiny almost invisible triangle. Click it and choose Reset Tool.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 Loading Question

    I have just purchased PSE11 and am eager to load it onto my existing laptop, however I am buying a new laptop soon and wonder if I can also load PSE11 onto this or is it going to be "stuck" on the original one.
    Thank you for your help!

    However if you downloaded it from adobe.com, you would only be able to make two activations on one platform only. (And it's the platform for which you purchased the PSE11).
    But yes at the end, you can make two activations.
