Photoshop Elements Photo Bin No longer stays open while working on photos but closes after each tool selection.

In Elements 13.1 on a Mac running Yosemite 10.10.2, the "Photo Bin" no longer stays active below the photo work area but closes after each tool action. The Bin used to stay open with all photos visible throughout, which was very helpful. Couldn't find a preferences option for this. Any help?

Hi,
It is possible to stop the Tools options automatically opening if that is what you want. You can not have the tools options and the photo bin both open at the same time.
To stop the tools options always opening, go to the options menu and uncheck the auto show tools options.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 - It won't stay open

My Adoble Photoshop Elements 11 will not stay open when I open it. A window pops up saying that Adobe Photoshop has stopped working and needs to close. I don't know why it's closing. Windows checks for a solution, then says that a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. It will close the program and notify me if they come up with a solution for the problem. I don't know why it does that or what's wrong. I don't want to have to restart my computer to open Photoshop everytime. What is wrong?

Try making a direct shortcut for the Organizer and Editor. You can then launch the programs directly from the desktop bypassing the welcome screen. This is generally better as the welcome screen leaves background processes running.
On Windows, Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
Then click the browse button and navigate to:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 11 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
Then click Next; then click Finish
Then make a direct shortcut for the Editor in a similar manner.
On Windows, Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
Then click the browse button and navigate to:
"C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
Then click Next; then click Finish
N.B. navigate to Program Files on 32 bit systems.
To launch, try right-clicking on the new desktop icons and choose “Run As Administrator” which often improves stability.

Photoshop Elements 13 - Will no longer load / open!!!

Hi,
I downloaded the photoshop elements 13 this afternoon. Once download was complete, I used the programme fine. I then closed the programme down, and now it won't let me re-open. No message comes up - but it just does nothing!!!! I have spent HOURS trying to fix it - and am no further forward.
Highly disappointed with this download - as I have had for less than 4 hours and it is not working already. I specifically downloaded the software to hit deadlines with my photography - and now I cannot use it!!
PLEASE CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!!
Regards,
Gemma

That isn't an error message, it's a crash log. Go to your username>library>preferences and delete:
com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Paths
Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 settings
To see the library, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the Option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account. While you're in there, go to the Saved Application State folder and delete any for PSE.

ITunes/Photoshop Elements Photo Sync Fails After PSE Upgrade

After upgrading from Photoshop Elements version 9 to version 13, the iTunes "Sync Photos from Photoshop Elements" feature no longer works.
iTunes continues to show the albums from version 9, and photo syncing any of the albums causes iTunes to fail into an un-ending loop without an error message. Photo syncing from other folders works fine. I temporarily re-installed Elements 9 and iTunes photo sync began to work, but using the old version 9 photo catalog.
Is there a fix that will get iTunes to sync with Elements 13 photo albums? Are there files or registry entries that need to be re-pointed to the Elements 13 photo catalog?
I'm running Windows 7 with SP1 and iTunes 12.0.1.26 on a very capable HP PC.
All help appreciated.
Thanks ... Tom

While I haven't heard a solution to posts I've made to both Adobe and iTunes sites, I have found a manual workaround.
The catalog files that iTunes uses are of the format "catalog.pseXdb".
In my case, the new catalog is "catalog.pse13db" and the old is "catalog.pse9db". These files are found in catalog folders like: C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs\Elements 9 Catalog
With iTunes and PSE closed,
1) copy the catalog.pse13db file to the "Elements 9 Catalog folder.
2) rename the old catalog.pse9db file to keep it and deactivate it
3) rename catalog.pse13db to catalog.pse9db
iTunes will continue to use the older catalog file, but it now has new catalog contents. The manual part is that this will need to be done prior to each time you want to sync new catalog content to your devices.
Somewhere around PSE version 7, the catalog file format changed, so this technique may not work for upgrades from about v7 upward.

How do I troubleshoot the Photoshop Elements 11 is no longer working message when I try to open edit

How do I fix Photoshop Elements 11 when I get a message that Photoshop Elements 11 is no longer working when I try to use editor?

Can you get to the Welcome Screen? It looks like this:
If you can get to this screen then try holding three keys simultaneously: CTRL+ALT+SHIFT and also clicking on the Editor icon in the above picture and see if you get another small window such as:
You just need to click on Yes button to reset everything to defaults but this is not a panacea to all problems of PSE. This is just a start.

Photoshop elements 13 and premiere 13 purchased, downloaded and installed... but wont OPEN/LAUNCH.. HELLP!!?

photoshop elements 13 and premiere 13 purchased, downloaded and installed... but wont OPEN/LAUNCH.. HELLP!!?

Hello
My "os" is windows 8.1
When I clicked on the PHOTOSHOP 13 executable the photo editor popped up
along with an install option. Then I clicked install and then a update
failed message popped up. (I've attached a screen shot photo of that) Then
I clicked on error log and a "please quit and try again error code" message
popped up. (I've also attached a screen shot photo of that as well) so
after all that I closed everything and restarted my computer and clicked on
the PHOTOSHOP 13 executable again and it went straight to the photo editor
not the welcome screen (where I can choose either organizer or photo
editor)... why isn't there a welcome screen like before?
When I clicked on the executable for PREMIERE 13 there was two executable
options.. one that was labeled (PREMIERE 13 exe) and another that was
labeled just (PREMIERE exe) without the "13" so first I clicked on PREMIERE
13 exe and it took me to the welcome screen so then I clicked on video
editor the new project but nothing happened. ... the loading bar moves then
stops. So after that I closed it and went back to click the PREMIERE exe
and it took me straight to the video editor, again no welcome screen (were
i can choose either organizer or video editor) just like the photoshop....
so in the end I am able to click on the executable options for both
photoshop 13 and premiere and it takes me straight to the editor but
without the welcome screen...
Clicking on the shortcut icons on my desk top still won't launch though....
So does this mean it's working because clicking on the executable options
takes me straight to the editor? Or is something still not right because
the program won't open/launch when i click on the desktop shortcuts and
welcome screen won't pop up when clicking on executable options?
Thank you so much for replying I really appreciate it

Import images into Photoshop Elements Photo Organizer from Safari

Hi,
I recently bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 for Mac. Safari is my default browser. I wonder, has anyone seen an extension or add-on to Apple Safari 5.0 that creates a context dialog that would allow one to import an image from a web page into the Adobe Elements 9 Photo Organizer. Currently, the process of importing into Adobe Photoshop Elements Photo Organizer is both elaborate and tedious. Alternatively, am I simply unaware of some simple drag and drop method to import an image from the web into Photoshop Elements 9 Photo Organizer?

Hi Jack
It’s just not possible on the MAC even with the better Firefox open source Web Browser.

I have been unable to get Photoshop Elements 11 to show in my Open With Programs

I have been unable to get Photoshop Elements 11 to show in my Open With Programs list. The program is installed but will not show in Open With programs.

Hi,
You don't say which operating system you are using so I'll assume Windows 7 for now - try this.
1) select the file that you want to open
2) right click on it and go to the Open With option but select Choose default program at the bottom of the list - the following should open
3) At the bottom of the list, there is Other Programs, you may need to scroll down. If PSE not in the list, continue with the following.
4) Use the Browse button to browse to the following (omit x86 if on 32bit system)
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
I'm assuming that you want to open the image in the editor.
5) Uncheck the Always use... option, otherwise double clicking on the file would cause the editor to open by default.
6) Click on OK
PSE should now appear on your open with list.
Good luck
Brian

I bought a canon EOS Rebel T5i. It came with photoshop elements 11. PS won't open my C2 raw files and says my camera isn't supported by the software I have downloaded 7.4 dng converter and I still can't open the files. What do I need to do?

You need camera raw 8.4 for your camera, if it’s Digital Rebel T5 EOS 1200D EOS Kiss X70. It is not compatible with PSE11; so it’s a bit odd if that software was bundled with the camera except that it will work with jpegs. I suggest you download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will editable in PSE11(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.4
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

Photoshop elements (photo editor) does not start

Photoshop elements (photo editor) does not start after replacement of the mainboard of the computer.
We uninstalled the software and reinstalled it but it still refuses to work.

I have the same problem, does no one from Adobe look at this forum? I have done the mentioned things and nothing works. I am trying to get a project done and this very frustrating. I too should have gone with a Mac

Photoshop Elements 'Photo Mail' feature

I recently received an email created with Photoshop Elements 'Photo Mail' feature
The presentation of the photos was very attractive.
I have CS4 which does not include Photo Mail.
Anyone have a suggestion as to how Photo Mail can be duplicated in CS4?
Thanks
Bob

That feature is for people who don't understand images or email or both.
Why would a professional program like Photoshop include it?

Hi 49balf,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I recommend removing and reinstalling iTunes using these steps:
Check for .dll files
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
Reboot your computer.
Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
You can find the article with these steps and more information here:

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 plus I create PDF files for work some are scan pdf docs. When I install Photoshop Elements 10 it DOES convert all the PDF files to Photoshop Elements-10 Docs. it even changes and shows the PSE-10 Icon. So I am alway installing PSE-10 or uninstalling it. If I send the PDF file that has been automatically converted to a PSE-10 the person I send the file to can not open it because they do not have PSE-10. What can I do to stop PSE-10 from converting my PDF files? Don't tell me to upgrade PSE-10 I tried their on-line program and it is too advance for a hobby photographer like myself and their Help Desk is impossible to reach.
