PSE 3.0 - Album: Pfadansicht

Hi,
ich habe in der Pfadansicht zweimal meine Platte C: In beiden Bäumen werden Unterverzeichnisse angezeigt, aber unterschiedliche:
Es befinden sich in beiden Bäumen 2003, 2004 und 2005. Darunter sind die Fotos wiederum in Unterverzeichnissen nach Aufnahmedatum gespeichert. Diese sind nun auf beide Bäume verteilt. In der Verteilung ist keine Logik zu erkennen. Zusammen genommen ergeben beide Bäume den Inhalt des Kataloges.
Das einzig auffällige ist, dass bei einem Baum der Bezeichner C: heisst beim anderne c:
Lange Erklärung, kurze Frage:
Wie kann ich beide Bäume zusammenlegen?
Gruss
Ralf

> Das einzig auffällige ist, dass bei einem Baum der Bezeichner C: heisst beim anderne c:
Genau das ist das Problem. PSE scheint hier wohl zwischen Groß- und Kleinschreibung zu unterscheiden. Abhilfe schafft das Verschieben vom einen in den anderen Baum.
Einfach jedes einzelne Unterverzeichnis aus dem c:-Teil in den C:-Baum ziehen (große Laufwerksbuchstaben scheinen der Normalfall zu sein).

PSE 8 upgrade album conversion issue

I upgraded my system to Windows 7 and since I was going to have to reload everything anyway, I upgraded to PSE 8 at the same time.
Before the upgrade I saved my catalog files to my external drive and then moved them back to the C:\Program Files\Adobe folder I put it there because I didn't see a catalog folder under the Elements Organizer folder
Anyway, I then converted my catalog - renamed it "My Catalog 7.0" to differentiate
The conversion says it was good and upon inspection all meta tags and albums seem okay. The issue is that it didn't bring in the images from May 2009 onward. I know those were in the catalog in 7.0 and had tags on them.
Any sggestions on how to get those images (with their metadata) into PSE 8.0?
Susan

Thanks John
You were right, I pulled the wrong file to convert (the one I used to convert 6 to 7)
Thankfully I had a back up and was able to restore my correct 7 catalog. All is good now.

Tags aus Album 1 in PSE 3 importieren

Ich benutze PSE 2 und Album 1.Zur Zeit probiere ich PSE 3 aus. Allerdings habe ich dort noch keine Möglichkeit gefunden, meine mühsam in Album 1 ertsllten tags zu übernehmen. Geht das überhaupt? Die Help sagt nichts darüber...Für mich wäre das ein K.O.-Kriterium. Thomas

Du kannst einfach Deinen Katalog aus PSA1 in PSE3 öffnen. PSE erstellt dann eine Kopie der Datenbank und wandelt sie in sein neues Format um.

Ordering Photoshop Element Album Print on Kodak Gallery

I have spent many many hours creating an album using Photoshop Element 7,0 and then wanted to print using Kodak Gallery. Did not work. Here is what happened:
Click on the PSE file on the organizer.
Then click 'Order print' and landed on Kodak Gallery site and logged in, I can see my album there but could not find a way to simply order a print copy of it. Only choice seems to select 'New album' which then would force me to redo all the work, reselecting templates etc...
What am I missing ?

A bit more details should help here. Essentially, I am talking about trying to export a PSE album file from Photoshop Element to the Kodak Gallery website to order a print copy. Here how I did it:
1. Went from 'organiser' to Create Photobook, imported all my pictures and created the pse file using Photoshop Element 6,0 templates, backgrounds etc.
2. Saved it in Organiser and on a separate file located on my desktop.
3. Reopen Organiser, clicked on Share, Order print which directed me to Kodak Gallery site. I could see there my pse file or album.
4. Tried to find a print album function to just order a print copy but did not find anything like it.Always forced to go through their 'New album' function which essentially meant redoing all the work.
5. Tried to use the print photo function but then would not import or use pse file, only jpeg.
Hope this help.

Suggestions for PSE 11 Organizer

Greetings from a new member. Not sure how to post some usability suggestions for PSE 11 Organizer, but here goes... I realize others have already posted similar comments, which triggered further discussions. However, my intent is just to bring these simple, but to me important, suggestions to the attention of the developers of PSE 11.
I have used PSE on Windows XP starting with PSE 4, then PSE 7, and very recently PSE 11. Earlier this year, I switched to a Mac OS X system and transferred my photos and PSE 11 catalog to PSE 11 on the Mac. I followed the backup/restore instructions on the PSE support site and am mostly quite happy with the results. However, I’m disappointed that the following usability features of PSE 7 organizer are missing in PSE 11 organizer (on both Windows and OS X). Note that I plan to use PSE on OS X exclusively from now on.
In PSE 7, when right clicking on one or more selected photos, the popup menu listed “View photos in full screen”, but it no longer does so in PSE 11. Although Full Screen is available on the View menu, having it on the popup would be even more useful.
In both PSE 7 and PSE 11, that same right-click popup menu lets you REMOVE selected photos from an album. It would be great if the popup menu would also let you ADD selected photos to an existing album.
In PSE 7, I could display the album list simultaneously with folder hierarchy/tree view (there was no folder list view in PSE 7). In PSE 11, the album list is visible only with folder list view. This makes it impossible to drag photos to an album from folder hierarchy view. Please fix PSE to display the album list simultaneously with folder hierarchy view.
I suggest that the default folder view be folder hierarchy (not folder list). Or even better, let the user choose the default folder view in Preferences.
Starting with PSE 4, I organized my thousands of photos in several main folders and hundreds of subfolders. Many subfolders have the same name, and frequently the subfolder name is a date. Because the PSE 11 folder list view doesn’t show the hierarchical context, folder list view is just clutter and completely useless for me. As recommended in other posts, I do intend to start using tags/events/places and other suggested ways to organize my photos. However, this will be in addition to (not instead of) using folders. I like organizing my photos in folders, just as I like organizing my other files (text, spreadsheet, etc.) in folders. Also, categorizing photos via tags, places, events, etc. is not equivalent to, and does not replace, using folders. For me, categorizing in this manner is an additional usability feature to using folders.
Thanks for listening...

My own answer will be about :

The fact is that the Organizer has been built historically on a database to manage keywords and categories with some additional tools to enable folder browsing and managing. Note that for other types of applications like word processors or spreadsheets, you have the same choice with using keywords or folder structures.
So, where are we in version 12 ? From what I am reading today, I'll risk a few guesses.
- I am convinced that most people relying like you on folder organization don't use the Organizer or have given up using it.
- A great part of the critiques about the Organizer come about people not understanding the idea of catalogs and categories/keywords (I know that is not your case)
- Anoter great part of the critiques is that the implementation of folder organizing in Elements has aliways been lame and buggy.
What's new in PSE12 is that the folder view has been completely rebuilt. And the result is perceived differently depending on your camp : database or folders...
- For Folder tenants, the result is two-sided. They are happy to have the folder view with all trees back - They don't see the point of the folder list - They are not happy with the new interface based on new categories (people, events...) - They miss the link between albums and folders as you have mentionned
- For database tenants, the main advantage is that a lot of bugs have been corrected and that they can use the folders view and folder list as a secondary tool for organizing. The folder list (a feature I had requested) is a great tool for those wanting to migrate from a folder organization to a database one. Usually, the folder names are significant and enable very fast keywording and constitute a powerful search tool.
- For both camps, the common grudge is the loss of alphanumerical sort order in folder view. I don't care personnally, but I think it's necessary for people working on scans.
So, my wish is that the next version of the Organizer can satisfy people like you,so that much more people use and are happy with the Organizer

PSE 12 File not working - No tags

Upgraded from pse 10. Albums are intact in the organizer. But no tags.
When I click on file in organizer I get the sub options but when I click on, manage catalogs, get photos, etc., nothing happens!
Help....

For importing photos you will need to click File > Get Photos and Videos > From Files and Folders.
If you earlier version catalog had tags, they should be visible in Tags pane in the right panel. You may need to expand individual headers (Keyword Tags, People, Places and Events) in the right panel to see corresponding tags.
Also, to see tags in the grid, you need to turn on View > Details menu option.
Please let me know if they are still not visible.
Thanks

Importing folders into albums (PE7) & keeping structure

hi,
Is there any way to import folders (w/pix) into photoshop elements 7 albums while keeping the folder structure in albums?
For example:
Folders
2009
+--> Jan
+--> Feb
+----> Kids
+----> animals
to the same but in Albums?
thanks
Jason

By the way, you can't find photos that are in two albums via searching using PSE commands.
In PSE 7, you can do this using the the Find > By Details command. But it's very clumsy, especially if you have lots of albums. It's a lot easier to do with tags.
You also can't limit a search to within an album, but you can limit a search to within a specific tag.
In PSE 7, sometimes you can use the Organize pane, but often you have to resort to the Find > By Details page.
For example, to find all the photos in an album containing a certain tag, first click the album and then the tag. If you want to find all the photos with a tag within a given time range, you can click the tag and then Find > Set Date Range. But that won't work with albums -- clicking an album clears any date range, so you'll have to use Find > By Details, which is tedious.
But your high-level point still holds in PSE 7: Adobe designed albums and tags for different purposes, and albums aren't full citizens when it comes to search.
Interestingly, the last Adobe PSE survey asked several questions about albums, indicating that the product manager is aware that there is confusion in the product design betwen tags and albums. I think Adobe has worked themselves into a corner: In PSE 6, they changed the name "collection" to "album" in an attempt to use a name that had more meaning to the typical user. But new users approach the product not knowing what tags are but thinking that they know what an "album" is, so of course they're going to use an "album", not a "tag". And then they discover their organization is crippled by all the restrictions PSE places on albums.

Upgrading from Elements 2 to 4

First, I'm computer challenged. I'm running XP Home and have Elements 2 and Album 2 installed. I also have about 2000 photos organized in Album using "Tags". I understand that 4 has an updated version of Album included. To add a small complication, for Christmas I received a Wacom Tablet with Elements 3 installed. I'ts still in the box.
What is the best way to do this upgrade?
Thanks, Jerry

I upgraded from PSE-2 and Album-2, to PSE-4 (I left Album and 2 on my computer). None of the pictures transfered up to 4, so I now have some photo's in 4, but all my originals are still in Album-2.
Help: 1. How do I get all my original photo's out of Album and into PSE-4?
2. If I'm successful in getting everything into 4, what do I do with Album and 2?
Thanks for your help, Jerry Shields

PSE13 and Itunes 11.4 synchronization

I have experienced some problems when I try to synchronize my PSE 13 photo albums from Itunes to my different devices such as Ipad and Iphone. That worked properly with PSE12 but since I upgraded to version 13 of PSE i doesn't work anymore. However it works to synchonize a directory from Windows in Itunes so the problem must be related to the new version of PSE. Someone who knows how to solve the problem or if there is a patch or something going on which solves the problem?
The synchonization starts, but it stops in step 4 in the mode Preparing copying... (in Swedish: Förbereder kopiering av objekt)

I am experiencing the same problem after upgrading to PSE13, but haven't found a solution yet.
TomWoodbridge proposes a workaround, see Re: iTunes Photo Sync with PhotoShop Elements Fails after PSE Update
Another permanent workaround (which doesn't require to copy the pse database every time you want to sync) is described here: Elements 13: Cannot synchronise photo albums in iTunes after upgrading from Elements 11
Hope this helps.

Adobe Elements not working for Photo Sync

I purchased Adboe Photoshop Elements 6.0 for the sole purpose of not having to sync my photos via Windows iTunes 7.4 using only top level directory names. I've been some albums in Elements however when I go into iTunes and select the Sync Photos, the pulldown for location only has the Pictures directory of Folder selection.
How do I see the Element Albums that I created?

I don't think iTunes supports Photoshop Elements 6 yet -- it was just released a few days ago. I was using PSE 5 with iTunes/AppleTV quite successfully, but when I upgraded to PSE 6, no albums show up in iTunes to sync.

Colour image on black & white photograph

How can I convert a colour photograph to part black & white? I believe I need to de-saturate to start with, but that's as much as I know.

John,
Since you asked about selection, here's an example using the Magic Wand and Selection Brush tools.
http://home.earthlink.net/~msand42/PSE/Selection%20Brush/album/
In the 1st shot I used the Magnetic Lasso to select the cat. This worked well since the outline of the cat contrasted with the background. For purposes of my example, I then cut off from the selection the top of his head and part of his paw, and selected a part of the blanket.
In the 2nd shot I activated the Selection Brush tool with the Mode option set to Mask and inverted the selection. Now the cat is masked in red. Note that the default Overlay value is 50% so that you can see through the mask. You might need to modify the Overlay so that you can see enough detail to paint the mask (next step). As you can see, the two missing portions of the cat are not masked and the excess blanket is.
In the 3rd shot I painted to fill in the missing portions of the cat. To erase the excess on the blanket I held down <Alt> while painting. You can adjust the size of the brush to get the necessary level of detail for painting.
In the 4th shot I inverted the selection and and set Mode to Selection to get back to the normal view showing the selected cat.
Of course if you have a steady hand you can simply draw the selection using the Lasso tool, but I wanted to demonstrate how you can fine-tune it with the Selection Brush.

How do I Import PSE12 Catalog into Lightroom 4.4

New to Lightroom and I have version 4.4. I have Photoshop Elements 12 installed and I'm trying to import the catalog to Lightroom. I manage this quite easily with a trial version of Lightroom 5 but in 4.4 if I go to File/Import Photos and Videos or Import from another Catalog there is no option to import from the installed PSE12. So how do do it.

Albums will not transfer via this method of writing metadata to files, because album metadata is never written to files.
The only way to transfer albums is by converting them to keywords, as 99jon said, or by waiting until Adobe releases a new version of Lightroom that will properly convert PSE12 catalogs to Lightroom catalogs (and neither I nor anyone else here knows when that will be).
As a supplement to 99jon's advice, it is my opinion that you should organize via PSE tags (called keywords in Lightroom), and then you won't have this issue of transferring information from album names to keywords in PSE and then back to collection in Lightroom. Tags/keywords are written to the metadata when you inform PSE or Lightroom to do so, and so if you convert the PSE albums names to PSE tags you should just leave them as tags in the future, and leave the information as keywords in Lightroom in the future. In my opinion, there is zero benefit and considerable drawbacks (mainly your time) converting these to keywords to collections in Lightroom. And if you're going to leave these as keywords in Lightroom, then there's also zero benefit and considerable drawbacks to making the PSE tag name "Album New York", just make it "New York".

Elements 11 connection problem

How can I get Photoshop Elements 11 to recognize or connect to Premier Elements 4 which I have. It wants me to install Premier Elements 11 which I don't want.

Different versions will not integrate. For example PSE11 and PRE11 share the same Organizer. PRE4 will use the version 4 Organizer. However both applications will run on a stand alone basis.
It can be frustrating, if you want to build a slideshow, starting in PSE, using an album and adding transitions etc, and then want to output to PRE for further editing or mixing with video. The only suggestion is to add you stills directly into PRE4.
If you consider upgrading to the forthcoming version 12 you will find many improvements, and PRE now has 64 bit support on the Windows platform. The product is usually attractively priced, as a combo on sites such as Amazon etc.

IPod Touch 2G No Longer Sees Photoshop Elements (PSE) Album Photos

Hello Forum,
All was working fine. I would create an album in PSE 7 on Win XP, my iPod Touch would see the album and all the photos in that album, successful sync, and copies of the photos would be stored on my iPod Touch.
Then for data security and redundancy, I relocated my My Documents folder to a network RAID disk array. My Music and My Photos folders therefore also got relocated. After fixing some paths iTunes works fine, and PSE 7 also works fine. PSE 7 albums are completely intact and accessible from the network share.
BUT, when I go to sync my iPod Touch with PSE7, the iPod sees all the PSE album names in iTunes, but says that each album has exactly 0 photos. So now my iPod has no photos. Please help me fix this problem.
One other thing, if I point my iPod at a specific photo folder on the network share, and tell it to sync to this folder, the photos in the folder move to the iPod with no problems. But I don't want to have to create photo copies in new folders just to sync with the iPod; the PSE Album concept is perfect, if it would only work now!
Thanks, Ken

I've had exactly the same issue with my iPhone 3GS and iTunes 10.4. I reported it to Apple and was told it was likely an error that crept into 10.4 and to expect a fix in an upcoming release of iTunes. I'm waiting for that to happen still...
