Photoshop elements 6 tutorials relate to Elements 7.

Since I don't have Organizer on Elements 6 for a Mac, can anyone please tell me how to import a photo from my desktop? Thanks.

Hi, Charles. You don't need to "import" anything, since PSE doesn't store your photos or any information about them in the Mac version. Just use File>Open in PSE, or right-click (control click) the photo and choose Open With from the contextual menu.

Is there any way to download the Photoshop Elements 10 tutorials to my laptop so I can work from them when I don't have access to a Wi-Fi connection?

Hello, I finally have time to learn how to use my Photoshop Elements 10 program. However, I want to be able to use it while we travel and I seldom have access to a Wi-Fi connection. I was wondering if there's any way to download the Adobe website's tutorials to my laptop so I'm not dependent on that Wi-Fi connection?
Thanks so much!

Yes. You can download the Firefox installer and copy the file to an USB stick or other medium and install Firefox from that drive.

I recently installed Photoshop Elements 13. I can't launch help & tutorials etc. how can I fix this?

I recently installed Photoshop Elements 13. I was able to launch help, tutorials etc. but as of today I get "Forbidden You don't have permission to access /chcservices/services/redirect on this server". How can I fix this?

Had to go with Method 2, but couldn't locate the Preference file, (yes hidden files are visible).
Following the path you suggest, in C: I have Users>user name>AppData>Roaming>Adobe>Elements_Organiser>12.0>Organiser>Log.txt
And I couldn't find it in S: either.
I uninstalled using the DVD program, and this time was sure I ticked the 'Remove Preferences' box. I CC cleaned registry and files before and after removal and again after a restart.
I did a fresh install feeling very hopeful, but I'm afraid the result is still the same.
I suppose I could try installing on C: in case that is an issue, but it's not a very satisfactory long term solution as I'm restricted on space.

How do elements organizer and adobe photoshop elements relate? Unclear how/where to save edited photos

I don't understand how elements organizer and adobe photoshop elements relate - how/where do I save edited photos? I tried to save them on my hard drive and the result was a 65 MB file!!! Not sure what I'm doing wrong :/ - maybe I'm saving the entire folder every time instead of just an individual photo?

There is no standard field for faces. To transfer information you must put it in the standard place that the new program will use. That does not exist for faces. One work around would be to use keywords. You include the available metadata in a photo by checking all if the boxes when you export the photo(s). What the receiving program is determined by the authors of that program. All iPhoto can do is write what it offers to the IPTC & EXIF fields which it will

Cannot sign into Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 - no access to online services or tutorials.

Anyone else have problems signing into Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 tonight? I keep getting error message 400 or the program simply freezes. My adobe ID and password are valid. Help Line told me to post this question here. Any and all help are greatly appreciated. I would like to access the online storage, email capabilities and tutorials.
Thank you!

It works OK and the syncing between devices is nifty. At least it is with my daughter's ipad, the Android app does not work with the Android 2.2 software version on my phone.
Why not give it a try. If you had images on photoshop.com they'll have been transferred to Revel (same id / password as you used for photoshop.com). and you can install a trial version of PSE12 and see if you like the mobile albums feature. Installing PSE12 will not mess up anything in your PSE10. And you can see if you like the new PSE12 new User Interface.

Photoshop Elements Help | Getting started tutorials

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/topics/getting-started-tutorials.html

Do you mean photo mkail or attachments? I’ve found it usually works best with web mail via Adobe after obtaining verification. I know some email services block bulk email completely and I’ve only tested it with Gmail which works fine. Should also work with other web mail e.g. Yahoo and Hotmail. Before you start it will help to check your internet security settings. If they are set to High, reduce the settings to Medium temporarily. Then follow these instructions.
1. Log in to your mail provider on the web and add the following email to your address/contacts book.
[email protected]
2. Open Organizer and on the menu click:
Edit >> Preferences >> Sharing
3. Choose Adobe Email Service from the client dropdown menu.
4. Add your name and email address to the fields provided and click OK
5. Test the system (first use only) by selecting a photo in organizer and choosing Share >> Photo Mail then click Next (Mac users should use attachments)
6. Choose a contact then click Next
7. Click Next Step, then click Next - the sender verification dialog will open.
8. Check you have spelt your email address correctly and hit the Resend E-Mail button.
9. Go to your inbox (also check spam) and when the Adobe mailer message is received copy (Ctrl+C) the long verification code.
10. Return to the verification dialog and paste it (Ctrl+V) into the Sender verification field and click OK. Wait for validation confirmation then click OK to continue

How do I transfer photos and related tags from Photoshop Elements 5 to a new iMac Apple desktop computer

Is it possible to move all my photos , Tags and folders in Photoshop Elements 5 from my Vista machine to my new Apple iMac desktop?

You will need to upgrade PSE in windows to at least PSE 9, then do a full backup using the organizer's backup command to a removable drive, then restore to the mac. The mac organizer can only understand windows catalogs from PSE 9 or later.
You can download a trial version here to get the catalog updated:

Photoshop Elements 7 tutorial book recommendation

Hi - I'm looking for a recommendation for a practical, how-to book for Photoshop Elements 7. I am new to the software and have purchased a book which is pretty good but it's still too much like a technical manual. Two books by Avi Muchnick, "When Pancakes Go Bad: Optical Delusions with Adobe Photoshop" and "I've Got a Human in My Throat: MORE Optical Delusions with Adobe Photoshop" teach how to use the software in a practical fashion using fun projects - not just telling me what each function does as most technical manuals do. The sample images are also included so that the user can work along with the book making it a truly a hands-on experience which is what I want. I'm told that most of what is in these books applies to PE7. I have two questions:
1. If anyone has used either of these books, how well did you think they related to PE7?
2. What other book would someone recommend as a good hands-on PE7 tutorial? I do not have a very fast internet connection so, for now, I would prefer to learn using a book with software if possible. However, I know there is a wealth of good on-line tutorials out there so any recommendations for those would also be appreciated.
Thanks!

I have used "How to Cheat in Photoshop Elements 7" and found it interesting.
But you can find lot of stuff online specific to your requirement.... Usually I prefer to read PSE blogs or online tutorials whenever I have any specific requirement in terms of Editing....

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..

Maryrhire910 I am sorry that you are facing difficulty downloading and installing Photoshop Elements 12. Are you downloading the installation files from Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10? If so what specific error are you receiving?

I have been using Elements 12 without a problem for 9 months. Now when I try to open the program, I get an error message "Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 quit unexpectedly" and it will not open at all. What can I do to open the program?

Thank you for responding. Nothing actually worked! After reading the posts online, I called Apple. They indicated they have seen problems with some software after their upgrades. The technician was able to fix the problem on my computer remotely, but I have no clue what he did! But, it was definitely related to their recent upgrade to my computer.

Photoshop Elements 8.0 won't open, keep getting an Error message from windows

I am running Windows Vista on a toshiba laptop and I've owned the software for a little over a year now, everything was working quite fine the usual few crashes every once and a while. Though I had thought to myself oh well here it's time for some new photoshop brushes and fonts. So I went to sites such as Dafont.com and Deviantart.com to get brushes and fonts. Installed them all and tired to open up photoshop Elements afterwards and I kept getting an error message as shown in the picture.
Any help would be appericated, Also added information that may help, Yes I have tired removing the brushes out of the folder and running the program, and yes I have tried removing the fonts I installed. Neither worked. I also have not Restarted my laptop computer since I had installed that brushes/fonts.
Thank you for looking/reading/answering!
Have a nice day. (:

Hi,
Please try couple of probable solutions as mentioned below:
Solution 1:
1. Close Elements.
2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
Solution 2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
Solution 3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
Solution 4:
On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
Go to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere else.
Now launch PSE and check if it works.

How to use the "Actions" in Photoshop Elements 11

I am wanting to use the "Actions" in Photoshop Elements 11. But when I get the actions box up, it is only showing a small list of effects to use. The tutorials I have checked into all show a very long list of actions. When I click on the little arrow and click on "load actions", I am getting nothing. Everything is blank. It says "No items match your search." Please help!

To use the existing actions, try the following:
1. Open one of the Action Sets, in this example Special Effects is the Action Set, by pressing the small arrow beside the set name.
2. Then click on the name of the Action, in this example Faded Ink is the Action name.
3. Then press the Play button to run the action.

I can't activate my copy of Photoshop Elements 9

I have a purchased boxed copy of elements 9 and because my computer crashed and had to reload window xp as windows2 (otherwise I would have lost al my data) I tried reloading it and I am being told that I am using a second copy of it. This I suppose is because the old copy on my C drive is still there in the window folder. How do I get over this problem so I can use it?
This is urgent
