PSE 13 version set

I'm unable to view, manage or otherwise use version set options in PSE 13 (Windows 8.1) even though the set is created and the set exists and can be viewed in File Explorer.
It makes no difference if the set is created in the Organizer or manually saved as a copy in a version set in the Editor.
All version set menu options are greyed out.
I converted a catalog from PSE 10...repaired and optimized that...created a new catalog in PSE 13...no difference.
Any clues....?

View>Details and you should be able to work with version sets. The new adaptive grid view doesn't do versions.

PSE 12.1 not saving in version set

I have been successfully using PSE 12.1 on Windows 7 since last August. However I've started having problems in the last 2 or 3 days. I start the Organizer and select a photo to edit. When I "save as" I get one of two results. In the first case it saves the photo in the proper folder but it does not create a version set with the original. In the second case, the editor locks up and eventually I get a message saying the editor is not responding and windows is looking for a solution. Usually it saves one photo as in case one above, and then fails to respond on the second photo and I shut it down. Over the past 2 days I have uninstalled PSE 12 and reinstalled 3 times, upgrading to 12.1 each time., but I get the same result. Any ideas what is causing this?
Update: I've given up. Uninstalled for the last time; purchased PSE 13; everything working with new version.

This is odd . Did you tried with clean preferences. To clean preferences go to "Edit Menu>PReferences>General" and click the button "Reset Preferences on next launch". Relaunch PSE.
This is not new, already several posts on this forum and one bug report:

Today's state of the problem seems to be that this happens not only with saving in version sets in PSE12, but also on simple saves with 'include in the organizer' checked.
It happens on previously converted catalogs, not on new ones.
It happens when the process 'elementsautoanalyzer.exe' is running (you can 'kill' it from the Windows task bar, but you must do it every time you start the organizer. Deleting or renaming this file seems to work.)
This seems also to be a problem for people using the 'watched folders'.
So, to prevent the problem : kill the elementsautoanalyzer.exe every time you start the organizer.
To recover the edited files not included in the catalog, do a manual 'get photos and videos' from the already gotten files.
It's important to do so, otherwise the edited files won't be catalogued and be missing if you do a backup.
If necessary, use the automatic stacking feature by visual similarity to stack your originals with your edited versions, since you can't create version sets.

I can't stack photos (previously in version sets) imported via "Upgrade PSE Catalog". Why not?

I am currently using LR 3.6 on a Windows 7 OS/ HP laptop. Previously, I organized my photos using PSE 9 Organizer. When I switched to LR 3, I selected the option to upgrade my PSE Catalog to bring my photos into LR. LR imported all the photos and keywords/ratings but not my version sets or smart albums. I understand LR doesn't have version sets so I was willing to manually restack my photos but now LR is not giving me that option. Any pictures that were previously in a PSE version set are showing as unstackable (all the stack options are grayed out) even if they are located in the same folder on my hard drive. I'm having trouble finding anything on the web that addresses this issue. Any help/direction would be much appreciated as my catalog is rather cumbersome at the moment.
Thank you,

If dj_paige's suggestions don't help, check to make sure that Lightroom thinks both photos are in the same folder. When I converted from PSE 8, I had some photos in version sets in the same actual folder that LR thought were in different folders whose name differed only by case (e.g. "MyFolder" and "myfolder"). Thus, LR refused to stack the photos upon catalog conversion.
You can check this by selecting each of the suspsect photos in turn, right-clicking, and selecting Go To Folder In Library.

Moving Version Sets in PSE 3

I edited photos and saved in a version set. Then I moved the photos to a different file location. If I browse in PSE 3, it shows the version set in the new location. But if I browse on My Computer, the original photo did not move (only the edit).
How do I grab the entire version set to move to another folder? If this is not possible, how do I seperate the version set? (Everytime I try to do this, it wants to delete the edited pictures first.)
I have spent many hours trying to organize all my old pictures and I'm almost ready to give up and just use the freebie Microsoft Photo Editor and My Pictures :( Thanks for your help!

This is a bug in the "version set" feature in PSE 3.0 that is fixed in
version 4.0. Did you right-click on the version set and then choose
version set->expand version set (or is it reveal version set?). You can
then choose each individual picture in your version set and move them
one at a time.

PSE does not Synch Version Set to REVEL?

I have just installed PSE 12 and changed my Revel subscription to premium. Before committing my entire PSE library I created a small (102 pictures) album and made it a mobile album. In REVEL only 95 pictures show up. After comparing export files of both the PSE album and the REVEL album, I have found that the discrepancy involves version sets. Pictures whose name includes the fragment "-edited" were not moved to REVEL. When a matching picture without the "-edited" existed, it was moved to REVEL. For the cases without the matching unedited picture, no picture moved to REVEL.
Is this the way REVEL synch should be working?

Another update:
I've had some time now to observe and experiment more carefully. I've found that I get different results with version sets that I create new with PSE12 as compared to version sets that were brought forward from PSE9:
1. For every version set originally from PSE9 (usually xyz.jpg and xyz_edited.jpg) only the xyz.jpg syncs into Revel when I move it into a mobile album in PSE12. (This means that I had not tested enough when I said that only my oldest "edited" photos had not synced to Revel.)
2. For every version set that I create new with PSE12 (usually xyz.jpg and xyz_edited-1.jpg), both pictures move into Revel. (I think that I must have deleted the one that I said disappeared -- I wish I kept better notes!)
Since I would like initially to get every PSE file of a Revel-supported filetype into Revel, I am considering converting every pre-existing version set to individual files before I move the remainder of my library into mobile albums. Since I've fooled myself more that I care to admit, I'll test more before going further. My goals are to capture every photo from our 2 iPhones and 1 iPad in the same spot where all our prior photos exist AND to be able to browse them with any of our devices.

PSE 8 and CS4 Editing Raw Files & Version Sets

I currently have PSE7 and CS4. While I use Bridge for the initial download and review I like the organizer in PSE better. PSE7 has problems interfacing with CS4. Raw files open directly instead of opening in camera raw in CS4. Version sets don't work either; the updated files is deleted by PSE. My question is whether anyone knows if these issues have been addressed in PSE8. I tried to ask Adobe but all I got is that they tried to work on these issues.

It appears that the PSE 8 displays the same characteristics when editing RAW files. The link between CS4 and PSE Organizer shows the same problem, for editing JPEG images also. The edited version does not get saved and yet is added to the Catalog.

PSE 6, winxp, version sets seem to be locked and I can't 'CLOSE" them.

PSE 6, winxp, version sets seem to be locked and I can't "CLOSE" them. I can't get the files to unlock though I repeatedly open them up in the editor as requested and CLOSE them. they're still locked. any sugesstions on what I'm doing wrong?

How do you mean locked? What can't you do? Are you trying to collapse the version set, or do you want to do something else?

PSE 7...Unable to save edited photos in a version set

I am suddenly unable to save my edited photos in a version set. The edited photo is being saved on the hard drive but is not linked to the previous photo nor is visable in the open catalog. This issue in occuring in only one catalog but not in others. Thanks for any help.

You may be encountering a known bug. To troubleshoot:
1. In the Organizer, select one of the problem photos (the original, not the edited), right-click it, and do Show Properties. What is the full, precise path of the photo, shown to the right of the yellow folder icon at the bottom of the Properties window?
2. Do Help > System Info. What is the precise path given for Catalog Location?

PSE 11 - How disable Save in Version Set

How can I default the Save in Version Set checkbox to unchecked so I do not have to remember to uncheck it when I save. I _never_ want to create a version set. Thanks.

I don't think you have an option to disable "save in version set".

PSE 4 (WinXP): Version set not working

I have about 7000 thumbnails in my catalogue. Just recently I have had a problem when creating a version set - I get something like a catalog error (sorry, I didn't write it down when it happened - I think it's a DBA error?) and the original thumbnail is displayed only in the Organiser, without a version set icon in the corner. The new jpeg is still saved, it just doesn't show in the version set, or the catalogue at all. Furthermore, when I 'get' new photos from the folder I saved the jpeg in, I get an ODBC error - again, apologies that I can't transcribe it: I checked the 'don't want to see any more' box pretty quickly. So the new jpeg I created is somehow both in and 'not in' the catalogue.
Help is appreciated.

Thanks! I might not have found that feature for years. Or might have found it previously, and forgotten it was there . That allowed me to import the new thumbnails to the catalogue, but not repair the version set.

How do I move my Elements photo files to a new computer keeping the catalog & version sets?

How do I move my Elements photo files to a new computer keeping the catalog & version sets?

I recommend you ask that in the PSE forum. I'm sure there is some import/ export hocuspocus involved...

Photoshop Elements 13 (Mac) Organizer - Can't save file with version sets.

I have spent many hours now trying to get Elements Organizer to save Version Sets when I've edited a photo. I've tried more or less every little thing you can find online without any luck. But just moments ago I found that if I move the file to my desktop everything works just fine. I then tried to edit files in a few other folders (also imported to my Organizer) and found that when ever the folder was named to something with a nordic letter in it (å, ä, ö) then I couldn't save my file with version sets (option greyed out) but if I moved that same file to another folder, well then everything worked as it's suposed to.
I'm using the trial version of PSE 13 for Mac (Yosemite) and the full version is ordered and on it's way. But if this problem can't be fixed, I need to return that order and buy some other photo editing program.
Can anyone help me with this problem? Is there perhaps a solution to this?
Please, any help is much appreciated!

I'm using the English version (as more or less always - Swedish is rarely an option). The thing is that I have never encountered this problem before in any other software I've been using, and certainly not in Aperture that I've been using up until now.
I name my photo folders with a date and a few words, for ex. "2014-12-31 New Years in Stockholm" (but I normally write in Swedish). I use this method so that my folder that contains the original photos will be easy to find in even without any other software than Finder (or Windows Explorer if I connect my external drive to a Windows machine). I could change the name of all of my folders, or at least all of the folders with a name containing one or more of the letters Å, Ä or Ö to "force" PSE to work as it should, but why? This really shouldn't be a problem.
I was hoping that their was a simple option or something like that that could fix this issue, but I guess not.
If this problem lies in the software itself I will have to return it and look elsewhere (but where? Lightroom is certainly not an option if Adobe can't handle "normal" letters and Aperture is discontinued in a few months).
Thank you for your reply!

Edited photos not appearing in the organizer as version sets.

Ever since I upgraded to Photoshop Elements 12 I have experienced one problem after another. Now I have a new problem. While editing RAW files in PSE 12, the edits are basically disappearing and are not being tracked in the Organizer in version sets. However, when I reopen the RAW file it appears that the changes made in the RAW editor are still selected. I also am still having problems with some of the files disconnecting in the Organizer. It starts out with a few files disconnecting and eventually they all start disconnecting and then I have to close down the app and then relaunch it. Sometimes I actually reboot the PC.
I have repaired the catalog and run the optimizer. I tried optimizing first but got an error so I ran the repair first, no errors but selected repair anyway and then was able to get the catalog optimized. It worked for about 15 minutes and then the edits started disappearing again.
VERY FRUSTRATED!!!!

Versions Set not saving in Organizer 9

Using Organizer and PSE 9 on a Mac, about 13,000 photos in single catalog.
Had been using Versions Sets with no problem, but now the edited image is not being added to the version set. It works okay if I do the edit in Organizer - the edited version saves in version set. But if I go out to PSE for edits and save edited version, a version set is not created. Using Save command in PSE and the "Save as Version Set with Original" box is checked. Have closed Organizer and reopened, also ran the repair catalog in Organizer, but no change.
Thanks,

Same issue here. Some files it works, some not. I cannot find any elements that would be causing this. I thought the file name could be too long, or contain special characters, but I have been able to make it work in some cases.
I'm not sure forums are monitored so I guess we're just out waiting for an update that would miraculously correct this...
In the mean time, when you do edit within an album, the edited files gets added to the catalog but not to the album, which is left with just the original. Very unuseful...
In the hope that someone will find a solution to this.

Problems with version sets

I have PSE 6. When I open a JPG from the Organizer using Full Edit and then try to save, I do not get the option to save the image in a version set (even though I do have the Organizer option checked). However, I noticed that invoking Full Edit also prompts the Organizer to say there is a new file in the watched folders. This "new" file is the very same file in the very same location. If I accept to add the file to the Organizer I get two thumbnails in the Organizer, both pointing to the same file on disk. If I do this then the "Edit In Progress" banner appears on the "new" thumbnail and the editor does allow me to add the image to the version set. I am sure that I did not have to do this before, I would expect Full Edit to just open the image, mark it in the Organizer as being edited, not try to add it back to the catalog and allow me to save the edit in a version set. What might be causing this behaviour?
I also have similar and I think related problems with RAW images too, but I am hoping that resolving the above will resolve the RAW issue too.

I should have said that I did try that but it still prevented me from creating a new version in a version set when saving. It is as if the editor needs to start on a copy of the Organizer's entry to allow version sets, as if the original is somehow "locked". Could that be possible?
