Launch the welcome screen then , try to launch the PSE by pressing the shift , it will open the catalog manager. Create the new catalog or repaif the current catalog and relaunch the PSE again.

Printing problems using Photoshop Elements 6

I have been using Photoshop Elements 6 for several years and am currently having printing problems, e.g., some prints are too light, some are too saturated, or too dark...they just don't look like the screen which looks pretty good. I use Spyder 3 Pro to calibrate my monitor. Does anyone know of any websites that address these type of problems. Looking for some advice, tips, etc.
Thanks.

Does this happen only in PSE6 or in other programs that can print graphics, like Acrobat or Word or PowerPoint?
I only ask because my LexMark started to vary color saturation shortly before the print head dumped an entire cartridge onto one page and it gave up the ghost.
It wasn't just pictures. Word documents would go from light to dark. Graphics (business cards, labels) would print bright and then dim on the same page.

Problem using PS Elements 10, editing photos

I purchased my PS Elements 10 from a store. I set it up and got my serial number from using the redemption code.
When I access the PS for photos and choose editing, I keep getting the PS Elements trial...I purchased the darn products why does it keep asking for a serial number for a trial? Why can't I get beyond this point to use the editing area of PS Elements? I keep being asked for a serial number and then told that the serial number I enter is invalid. I want to edit some photos and am thinking about downloading a free product I used prior to this.
I am kind of afraid to use this for my video editing and find the same problem.
If anyone can help me before I decide to uninstall and install the free product, I would greatly appreciate it.

Yes I did redeem the redemption code to get the serial number. And I registered it with no problems.
I actually got a Yield type sign with a ! in it. And the serial started with a number on, just like the tech told me last night.
I use Windows 7 and was told to use disc 2 by the OS when I tried uploading the first disc.
I went to the second screen and canceled. I am now in the editing mode. Not sure what happened but I am now able to get in.
Thanks for the reply.

Mac OS X 10.5.4 - Problem using Photoshop Elements

I've loaded Photoshop Elements 6 onto my hard drive and I can open it up, but I can't actually use it. I spent 30 minutes on the phone with Adobe, only to be told that they think it has something to do with my permissions - so they can't help me, I have to talk to Apple.
I can't find a number to call to speak to a real person (was I crazy to think I could, or have I simply missed something?). Anyway, I think I fixed "permissions" using a thread posted somewhere in the forum (disk utility, first aid, etc. etc.) and I managed to get one step further in Elements, but it's still crashing.
I really don't know what to do next. Can anyone help? I have a program I know I should be able to use.
Oh, and BTW, I'm useless with computers, so step by step help would be appreciated

In 10.5 you can access them from the 'Open...' Dialogue:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
But, as you say, if accessed this way will need to be saved to the desktop and imported to iPhoto as a new image.

Is anyone else having problems using the Elements 9 Organizer?

I have upgraded from Elements 6 to Elements 9 and am finding glitches in the organizer and some of its functions. For example, to share my images online through Photoshop Showcase, I need to unstack them before making an album. If I do not unstack, all the images in the stack, regardless of how I select them, are included in the album. I stack my worked and edited images together with the original photo. When I use the display in 'import batch' view, I get several copies of my images in each import date of those that are also included in my stack, very frustrating. Often the stacks just keep on multiplying in the display using this sort of view. When I delete an image from a stack, the display jumps to another time and date and image on my organiser and I need to note and remember where I was working so that I can get back to the right spot again. I am less than happy with this and other obvious bugs in this version.

Hello,
I too encountered difficulties with Stacks. The advantages were few, the disadvantages many, so I unstacked everything and have never never used it again.

How do you overcome problems using Photoshop Elements with Win 7 and Eyefinity display?

I have a 3 screen Eyefinity setup on a PC running 64bit Win 7 with 16gb RAM and an AMD Radeon 7950 graphics card and Phenom II x4 processor.
I struggle to get a stable PSE10 to work on this setup.
I bought a combined set of Photoshop and Premier Elements 10 and although installed it always crashed when I saved images with the error message "Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 has stopped working". I recently did a fresh install of Windows 7 and decided I had to solve the Photoshop problem.
I installed Premier 64 bit version from disk 2 and Photoshop Elements from disk 1 and then ran compatability checker. Under compatability settings for Win XP srv pack 3 it starts although with some toolbar errors and top and bottom of screen transparent instead of solid. I can save files worked on but then still get the error when I exit Photoshop Elements.
Has anyone had similar and solved the problem? Tech Support said my s/w was too old and unsupported without a service contract.

There should be no need for compatibility mode; pse10 is designed to run on W7. Try making a direct shortcut for the Editor. You can then launch the program directly from the desktop bypassing the welcome screen. This is generally better as the welcome screen leaves background processes running.
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 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
Then click Next; then click Finish
To launch, try right-clicking on the new desktop icon and choose “Run As Administrator” which often improves stability.

Problem using text element with type TEXT INCLUDE in smartforms

Hi,
I am working on smartform.
My requirement is to print the text which can range from 1 to 99 (free text). I am using TDNAME, TDOBJECT and TDID from STXH table and putting it in the fields Text Name, Text Object and Text ID of text element created with type "TEXT INCLUDE" in window in smartform.
It works Fine only when I put exact value of TDNAME in Text Name field.
But in my case TDNAME can vary according to value of AENNR from Table AENR.
So I am trying to use a variable called W_TDNAME and pass TDNAME value to it. I am putting this W_TDNAME in the field TEXT NAME. And it says "Inlcude text W_TDNAME does not exist".
HELP ME OUT.
ANSWERS WILL BE AWARDED..
Tushar

Hi Tushar,
When you see in Text name field, there is a small button at the end of that field. This is to switch the dynamic field value option on. Click that and use the format &field_name& to enter your variable in that field.

Performance problems when using Premiere Elements for photo slideshows

Hello,
I had been using Premiere Elements 9 (PE9) to make a simple slideshow for my parents from their vacation trip and I ran into some serious performance problems. I had used it to create similar projects before, but not nearly as big. This one is like 260 photos, so basically it is 260 seperate clips. I have a POWERHOUSE workstation (see below) so it isn't my PC. Even when PE9 crashes, looking at my performance monitor my CPU and RAM aren't even halfway being utilized. I finally switched to Windows Movie Maker of all things and it worked seemlessly, amazing really. I'm wondering if I was just using PE9 for something other than what it was designed for since there weren't really any video clips, just a ton of photos that I made into video clips, if that makes sense. Based upon my experience with this so far, I can't imagine using PE9 anymore for anything really. I might have the need for a more professional video editing program in the near future, although it does seem like PE has a lot of features. How can I make sure it utilizes my workstation to its full potential? Here are my specs:
PC
Intel Core i7-2600K 4.6 GHz Overclocked
ASUS P8P67 Deluxe Motherboard
AMD Firepro V8800 Video Card
Crucial 128 GB SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Drive (Operating System)
Corsair Vengeance 16GB (4x4GB) Memory
Corsair H60 Liquid CPU Cooler
Corsair Professional Series Gold AX850 Power Supply

Logitech Wireless Gaming Mouse G700

Yes, this system is blazingly fast. I have yet to feel it slow down, even with Photoshop, Lightroom, InDesign, Illustrator and numerous other apps running at the same time. HOWEVER, Premiere Elements 9 has crashed NUMERUOS times, every time my system wasn't even close to being fully taxed.

Andy,
There ARE some differences between PrE and PrPro w/ an approved CUDA-capable and MPE hardware acceleration-enabled nVidia video card, but those differences show up ONLY in the quality of the Scaling. The processing overhead is almost exactly the same, when it comes to handling the extra pixels.
As of PrPro CS 5, two things changed:
The max. size of Still Images went up from 4096 x 4096 pixels, to quite a bit larger (cannot recall the numbers now).
The Scaling algorithms have been improved, though ONLY with the correct nVidia cards, with MPE hardware support enabled.
Now, there CAN be another consideration, between the two programs, in that PrPro CS 5 - CS 6, are 64-bit ONLY, so one benefits from the computer and OS to run it. PrE can be either 32-bit, or 64-bit, so one might, or might not, be taking advantage of the 64-bit program and OS. Still, the processing overhead will be almost identical, it's just that the 64-bit OS can spread it around a bit.
I still recommend Scaling the large Still Images in PS, prior to Import, to keep that processing overhead as low as is possible. Scaled Still Images work just fine, and I have one Project with 3000+ Scaled Still Images, that edits just fine in PrPro, even on my older 32-bit workstation. Testing that same machine, and PrPro some years ago, I could ONLY work with up to 5 - 4096 x 4096 Stills, before things ground to a crawl.
Now, Adobe AfterEffects handles large Still Images differently, so I just moved that test Project to AE, and added another 20 large Images, which edited just fine. IIRC, AE can handle Still Images up to 10K x 10K pixels, and that might have gone up, as of CS 5.
Good luck, and hope that helps,
Hunt

Good Morning. I'm having a problem using both my Photoshop elements and premiere programs. I've installed the programs, redeemed my code and entered the serial numbers, and created the adobe log-in. I am able to open up the organizer without problems,

Good Morning. I'm having a problem using both my Photoshop elements and premiere programs. I've installed the programs, redeemed my code and entered the serial numbers, and created the adobe log-in. I am able to open up the organizer without problems, but when I try to open up the photo editor (either by trying to open up the program from the main menu, or right-clicking on a photo in the organizer to edit in elements), the program asks me to sign in to adobe (which I can do and it doesn't give an an "incorrect password" or log-in ID error) then accept the terms and conditions. When I click to accept the terms and conditions, nothing happens and the editor fails to open. Everytime I click on the program, I get this same "loop" of signing in and accepting T&C's, but the program fails to open. Any advice?

Premiere Elements 10 is now 64 bit, but not PSE10.
Take a look at your scratch disk set-up and if you have a spare volume, allocate that first before the C drive. Elements use scratch disks when it gets low on RAM.

Turn off face recognition and the auto-analyzer to improve performance.
When editing photos or videos check the task manager to see what background processes may be running and end them temporarily if not needed.

Adobe now hides the editor - what looks like it is not - you want the editor hidden in the support folder - see http://forums.adobe.com/message/3955558#3955558 for details

Problems using version set in Elements 9

Hi!
I have problems using the version set. When saving files in the Element 9 editor I can not mark the "version set" option, its not highlighted and not possible to mark or use. Is there a basic setting that I´m missing or??? I have the MAC version of Elements.
Also I have noticed that when I have edited a file in the Elements 9 editor and I come back to the Organizer the editor have changed the time of the photo? This means that its rather difficult to find the photo in the Organiser. It often change the time 1 or 2 hours.
As I cant use the version set I can not keep my tags on the edited pictures. Is there a setting for keeping the tags and catalogue belongings to a edited file?
As of today this software makes no sense to me and I can basically not keep working with it as it does not support basic functionality that I´m dependent on.

I’m not seeing this in my own version sets in PSE9; when I expand the set every image has the same date and time under each thumbnail.
I’m wondering if you have used the “save for web” command at some point, which
wipes all EXIF metadata, including the date & time of the original - in order to optimize the image for display on the internet. So if you have imported such an image Elements has to make an estimate. Apart from this known scenario I can’t really explain what’s going on.

I am having a problem using the help menu in Adobe elements 5

I am having a problem using the help menu in Adobe elements number five.
When I open the help menu, the dialogue box defaults to an unreadable display font. Is there any way to change that default font? Using the help menus to find a solution is not possible for I cannot read what it is displaying.

For product, there is an option in preferences where we can set fonts. There are two options: One is application font and other is system font. I am talking about elements 8 which I have but not sure that will solve your problem which is help related.
Hope Help in 5th version is html which opens in Browser? Please confirm.

can someone help me with this issue?

Two suggestions: the first one is a workaround. You just have to drill down your program file tree to Adobe Photoshop Elements Organizer and find the .exe file - the one specifically for Organizer, not Elements. Make a shortcut to that file on your desktop and it will open Organizer. The second suggestion resolved the problem altogether for me. I actually called Dell and after working with several different techs over several different days, I talked to a tech in premium support who was excellent. I discovered from them that it is actually a problem with the windows system files. I have 8.1. I went through a "refresh" on my computer which rebuilt all the files. Then reinstalled Adobe as well as my other programs again and Photoshop Elements Organizer works from the standard desktop shortcut.

Are you running Premiere Elements 10 from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
Is this a "it worked before but not now" or "it never worked before" type issue.
On the Windows side of things, application of Run As Administrator as well as the User Account with Administrative Privileges has been know
to resolve some of these issues. I am strictly an Elements Windows user. What is the Mac side of the story for Run As Administrator? At any
rate, are your computer permissions in order?
Just to cover all bases, do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 10?
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Thank you.
