PSE 6 hanging on Mac

I've been using PSE 6 on my Mac with no problems. Now it hangs every time I open a file. The editing window opens with the image, and then I get the Mac spinning wheel of death. The one possible change to my system is that I add system upgrades. I'm running OSX 10.5.8
Anyone else experiencing this?

I resolved the problem by trying what has been suggested for other PSE 6 problems on the Mac:
Quit PSE, then go to your username>library>preferences and delete:
com.adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist
Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 paths
Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 settings
Opera preferences

Where to copy a paper profile created with Colormunki in PSE 8 on a Mac

Hello - I am using PSE 8 on a Mac running Snow leopard, version 10.6.2 with the latest updates. I have calibrated my monitor using Colormunki and profiled the Canon Photo Paper Plus for use on my Canon ip5300 printer. So far, so good. However, when I use the print dialogue menu, I do not find the ICC profile that I created for that paper in the drop down menu. Another forum question related to this suggested that one had to copy the profile to Library/Application Support/Adobe/Color/Profiles. However, I do not SEE a profiles folder in the Color folder, just folders called Proofing and Settings, neither of which have any content. Is it possible that this folder resides elsewhere (I have spent quite a bit of time poking about trying to find such a folder).
I have managed to get a quite good print using the following settingsm(in the Photoshop dialogue box):
- Color handling: Photoshop manages color
- Printer Profile: Working RGB - iMac D65.icc (this is the monitor profile created by Colormunki.
and in the Printer dialogue box:
- Color matching: Colorsync
- Quality and Media: Photo Paper Pro, High
However, having gone to the trouble to buy the Colormunki and profile the monitor and printer/paper, I would reallly like to be able to use the profiles!
Cindy

I have, fortunately, managed to fix the problem on my own. As I mentioned previously, in another question, someone had suggested copying the Printer profile created using Colormunki to the Library/Application Support/Adobe/Color/Profiles folder from the Colorsync folder. When I went to do so, there WAS no Profiles folder! However, I checked my laptop and the folder WAS there, so I copied it to my iMac and then copied the desired printer profile to the now existing folder. Voila! I can now access my Colormunki profiles from PSE 8! Hope this is of help to others.

PSE 10 Organizer on Mac shows wrong timestamps and changes timestamps

Just installed PSE 10 on my Mac (OSX 10.6.8) performed an update to the raw converter (though I am NOT using raw files)
All photos that I add to the catalog show a time stamp of 1hr before the photo was taken. If I check the actual metatdata it shows correct for most of the fields.
Exif data before adding to organizer: (using Exif Viewer 2.7.1)
Image Created:          2012:03:21 07:27:26
Image Generated:          2012:03:21 07:27:26
          Image Digitized:          2012:03:21 07:27:26
I drag it into Organizer and it shows as being 3/21/2012 6:27am
The exif data still shows properly in Exif Viewer.
Ok, I can deal with that, it is very odd, but since it isn't changing the exif data it is somewhat ok.
Until....
Now, I right click on the image and say open with Photoshop Elements Editor and immediately the time changes on the organizer screen to be one hour earlier from shown: 5:27am.
PSE Editor File info shows the Created and Modified times on the desciption tab as 7:27, but on the Camera Data tab shows 3/21/2012 – 6:27 AM (the time organizer showed before I said to open editor)
now Exif Viewer says:
Image Generated:          2012:03:21 06:27:26
          Image Digitized:          2012:03:21 07:27:26
close editor, and organizer is still saying the time is 5:27am
Close organizer, open again, still shows 5:27am, exif data still shows:
Image Generated:          2012:03:21 06:27:26
          Image Digitized:          2012:03:21 07:27:26
I can repeat the open in editor and it again subtracts an hour from the time shown, and from the Image Generated exif data field.
It appears that the organizer updates the timestamp when you say open in editor, and then sees that the timestamp changed and shows its 1hr subtracted time.
Definate bug! It happens with JPG files from 3 different cameras (2 canon, 1 nikon) does not appear to happen with MP4 files from Flip. but does happen with MOV files from at least 1 of the canon cameras.
Any ideas? I haven't found the place to report bugs for PSE10 yet.

PSE 10 Organizer for Mac - Partially correct Album search results

When clicking on an album, I get a huge amount of results but only 13, for example, should be in the album. Why does PSE 10 for the Mac give that kind of search response. How can I fix it?
To clarify....clicking on an album marked Flowers gives me the 13 flower images but also some 987 others, each of which is marked with a circle with a line through it, indicating that the program knows they should not be in the flower album but shows them anyway.

Standard Picture Packages using PSE 10 with a Mac.

I am unable to print out a standard picture package using PSE 10 with a Mac. I like to print 3 4" X 6" Pic Package with different images. It is impossible. I had a PC and Elements 8 before with no problem. I followed all the help instructions to no avail. What can I do?

With Mac, I am unable to find a 3 4" X 6" (example) picture package in PSE 10 Edito
File>Picture Package>choose 8x10 for the working area and you should see:
Then go up to the top and choose an image. It will appear in all the zones. Just click a zone in the preview to change to another image. It's actually a more robust package than in organizer--you can save it as a file, for one thing, instead of having to recreate it each time. All printing in the mac version happens from editor, so that's where they put the picture package and contact sheet. You can also create and save custom layouts via the Edit Layout button. This is the same picture package and contact sheet that came for many years in PS, so if you look for PS tutorials (pre-CS6) you should be able to find very detailed instructions.

PSE 10 hangs on "File Info"

Out of ammunition on this one: I have Photoshop Elements 10 installed on 2 different, but very similarly configured, XP (SP3) machines. The issue involves the editor and accessing "file info" when a .jpg is displayed. On one machine, the file info box displays properly with all the tabs, et al. On the other machine, however, the file info box is **completely blank**....it displays nothing other than a white screen inside the window. What's worse is there is no way to close the file info box and, thus, I have to use task manager to kill PSE. Any suggestions re how to resolve this would be welcome.

Yes, I have checked and both machines are running the standard font size. The screen resolution is also the same; 1920x1280. Thanks for the response, though.
Perhaps I'll try a reinstall before I escalate this further. I just have no idea why PSE would hang on the file info box (and why that box would be blank) when all other components of the program seem to be functioning properly.

Get PSE 9 for my mac?

I purchased PSE 8 then upgraded to PSE 9 Windows. I now have a Mac computer. How do I get a copy of PSE 9 onto my mac and discontinue the one for Windows?

You can download from here. Validate with your serial number if you have disks for both windows and mac.

Mijn PSE 9 (op mijn MAC) opent geen NEF bestanden genomen via Nikon D7100 .Wat te doen ?

Mijn PSE 9 (op mijn MAC) opent geen NEF bestanden genomen via Nikon D7100 .Wat te doen ?

The D7100 requires at least ACR 7.4 which doesn't work with PSE 9. So you can upgrade to a later version of PSE, use the nikon software to convert your files and only use PSE for additional editing, or download the free adobe dng converter, which you can use to convert your NEFs to DNGs that your version of PSE can understand.

How Do I Get to the Organizer in PSE 8 on a Mac?

Greetings:
I have downloaded PSE 8 and am using it in trial mode for now on my Mac running Snow Leopard. I can't for the life of me find how to start the photo organizer to create an online album or tag photos on a map. Everything I have read indicates one can start it from the welcome screen; however my welcome screen has no such option. I have something called Adobe Bridge but I don't think that is the same thing.
I watched a training video and their welcome screen was much different than mine. It had an organize and an edit button and also showed information on the user's photoshop.com account usage and what looked like an ad.
Thanks in advance for any help you can lend me,
Michael

There isn't and never has been any version of Organizer in any version of Elements for Mac. You get adobe bridge instead.

Help for using camera raw in PSE 8/Bridge for Mac for the Canon 7D

Recently purchasing the Canon 7D, taking a few test photos in Raw, then trying to use Camera Raw in PSE8/Bridge for Mac is a problem. I cannot figure it out. Can anyone help this frustrated, novice computer user?

You need to update the camera raw plug-in for bridge and PSE 8 separately (they use two different copies). In Bridge, just go to Help>Updates which will install, I think, ACR 5.7, which works with your camera. (You can't update bridge beyond that version).
For PSE 8, go here, download the latest version and follow the instructions in the readme file.
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=40&platform=Macintosh
Note that the directions may tell you that you can overwrite the old plug-in. That isn't true--you must remove it before putting the new one in there.

OpenGL in PSE 8.0 for Mac?
