PSE 6 Project Bin doesn't open

Hi. Can't open PSE 6 Project Bin on my Mac. Does anybody know what could be wrong? Reinstalled it, but nothing changed. Thanks.

Thank you. Didn't find the last file you mentioned - Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 settings, only found - Adobe Photoshop CS 3 settings. Deleted the first two but PSE opened as usual (without functioning project bin). There is a file - com.adobe.Photoshop.plist. Should I delete this one also?

Reinstalling is not the solution for problems like these. Go to your username >library>preferences and delete:
com.adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist
Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 paths
Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 settings
Repair permissions and try again.

When I try opening an existing iDVD project, it doesn't open

When I try opening an existing iDVD '08 project, it goes back to the "start a new project, open an existing project" menu. I have spent several hours on the project and have quit iDVD and successfully opened it again numerous times, so I don't understand why that project won't open.
I have the most updated version of iDVD and deleted the iDVD plist in my library and used Disk Utility to repair permissions and restarted my computer, but it's still doing the same thing. I can see my project name in the "open" menu box and that it is 182 MB, and it lets me select it, but then it just goes back to that main iDVD menu. The project has 10 short movies (3 - 4 minutes each), no chapter markers, & one slideshow with 170 photos. I see a lot of postings about iDVD itself not opening, but that isn't the problem... I can open a new project with iDVD just fine.
Any ideas?

Yeah. It does the same thing....opens the main startup window. Thanks though. Any other ideas?

Try making a direct desktop icon for the Editor and see if you can launch the program directly from the desktop.
Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
Browse to Computer OS C:
And find the PSE Editor application:
C: >> Program Files (x86) >> Adobe >> Photoshop Elements 11
Within the Photoshop Elements 11 folder find PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe (the application not the Adobe shortcut)
Select that file and click Next.
Then click Finish.
You should now be able to launch by right-clicking on the new desktop icon, bypassing the welcome screen. Try choosing “Run As Administrator” That often improves stability.

Problems with opening Project Bin

I'm a new user of Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac.   I do not use it with the organizer but keep my photos in iPhoto or elsewhere on the hard drive of my MacBook Pro.
When I open two images to to work on them at the same time the project bin does not open.   I can see the arrow on the left hand bottom with Project bin next to it but I cannot get it to open when I click on it. Similarly when I click on Project Bin in the drop down menu, nothing happens. I did have it working once so assume I have done something idiotic. Consulation with my "fat book" yields no solution. I have not changed the preferences at all.
Any suggestions or even a solution would be gratefully received.

Hi. I had given up on anyone replying to this query so thank you.
Yes the project bin works in the Window drop down menu, toggling back and forth, but that is not very satisfactory, unless the labels for the photos are very descriptive and not much use if you have three or four images, labelled image 1734 etc. To see each image is almost essential.
Version 6 has only the reset palette locations and not the reset panel options.
I can see the show project bin with the arrow in the lower left hand corner of the screen, but it does not toggle with the hide the project bin as it should.   I can't see anything relevant in the preferences to change, but I know I have worked with it open before. I am assuming I have done something "bad" to cause this but have no idea what.
Thanks for trying to help.

PSE 11 Organiser won't open

After a bit of a struggle with the installation of PSE11(via trial then entering authentication) , then successfully downloading photos, I now find PSE 11 Organiser doesn't open. After the fraught install, this new problem is a new hurdle.
Has anyone else had this problem and, if so, please can someone give me some simple instructions to rectify?
Thanks, Alison.

Try these solutions to see if any of these work.
If none of them works, let me know.
Solution1:
Close Elements. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file. Click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
Solution2:
In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
Solution3:
In case that does not work too, you may try this.
Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.

Move project bin in Elements 10

In the beginning, my Project Bin (Thumbnails of open images) was at the bottom. Not good. One day it automagically appeared vertically along the left edge. Good. Then, for no apparant reason it started appearing at the bottom again. Nothing I do makes it go back to its appointed place. I don't want to minimize it, just see my thumbnails where there is more room. Thanks for your help.
Gary

Hi Gary
I keep mine on the right so that its tabbed with the Adjustment layers in the lower section of the panels; with the layers and history panels tabbed in the upper section.
Simply drag the project bin to the right and when the blue outline appears drop it.

Project Bin won't stay open - PSE 7

In previous versions, the Project/Photo Bin at the bottom would stay open displaying the images you had open while you worked in the Work Area.
Now, when I open it, and return to the work area, it immediately closes. I understand that the PSE 7 Project Bin is a little different, but is this a feature I'm not appreciating or is it no longer supposed to stay open?
I used it open for a number of things, so I miss the ability to keep it open. If there's a setting somewhere to keep in open, I'd love to hear about it.
(Note: I can open it from the Window > Project Bin menu or by clicking the icon next to "Show Project Bin" just fine, and the Project Bin window is stretched up with sufficient room for it to display, so none of those are the question :)
Thank you!
Bev Schulz

Thank you! I finally discovered the right-click box with Auto-Hide in it, but didn't know there was an option in Preferences as well. I appreciate the help!

How to completely hide the Project Bin in PSE 6?

Is there any way to completely hide the Project Bin in Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac? I don't need it, and it's hogging screen real estate. I've seen posts that say it can be hidden using the Window menu in PSE 10, but that doesn't work in PSE 6.
Thanks!

Hi Barbara:
Thanks for your reply. I get no action clicking anywhere near the left edge, the right edge, or any edge.
The thing I want to hide is the entire gray bar that's obscuring the bottom of my screen. In the following image, it's the area that contains the words "Show Project Bin", plus the frame edge above it (the area for which the cursor turns into the double-arrow resizer).
Apparently, Adobe's idea of "hiding" the Project Bin means reducing it to the size shown in the above image from its expanded size, as shown in the following image:
I can "Hide" that large area by clicking on the "Hide Project Bin" button. But that doesn't remove the annoying project bin frame. I want the entire thing gone. That's what I haven't been able to figure out how to do. No amount of probing and clicking with the mouse reveals any way of exterminating that nuisance.
I'm probably missing something. It is unconscionable that Adobe would arbitrarily reduce my usable screen size by stealing control of my workspace, so I assume there must be a way to eliminate that "feature".
Thanks again.

Photoshop Elements 7 Stop Project Bin from Opening

Is there any way to stop the project bin from opening. It takes screen space I need on my laptop and also slows it down. I am using XP. Thanks for any help.
Gail

Hi,
See there is triangle in the middle of line above Photo-bin. Click on that and Photobin will collapse. Even when you move th cursor to uppar line cursor type changes to resize, so you can click and move it down upto the limit you want.
Hope it will solve your problem

Project made on Version 6 doesn't open on vesrsion 7

I would like to open a FCP project from version 6 on my new FCP version7. The trick is, I onlwant to open the "old" FCP project to send the programme to Color. When I try to import the FCP project it asks meTHE FILE PROJECT OF THIS PROJECT IS FROM AN EARLIER VERSION. WOULD YOU LIKE TO UPDATE THIS PROJECT FILE ? I then press NO and obviously the project doesn't open
I need to keep the file in an older version, because I need to send it back to an earlier version of FCP. My Q after all this in a very succinct manner is : How can I open a version 6 project on a new version on my version 7, without affecting anything?
Thanks

Click "Yes." If you don't allow it to update the file, then FCP won't open the project. You have to let it update the file.
I need to keep the file in an older version, because I need to send it back to an earlier version of FCP
Then what you do in this case is export an XML of the sequence you are working on, or of the entire project. Version 4 for FCP 6.

Open multiple images from the project bin

In Elements 9 I can only seem to open 1 image from the project bin at a time! What am I doing wrong?
Bob Dunkerley.

You need to double click on your main image and then drag your second image up from the project bin. That creates separate images on separate layers.

APE8 doesn't open any projects anymore

My APE8 doesn't opene any projects anymore. In some cases it allows me to create a new project, but after shutting down the computer and restarting it the next day or so it cannot open the project I made th day before. As a matter of fact: it cannot open any project anymore.
After clicking to open the project a small window appears with a bar indicating the percentage the project has loaded. When the bar reaches 100% it disappears and nothing comes instead of it: the screen stays grey as shown in the screenshot.
There is a menu bar however.
In Adobe help and through Customer Support is searched for help as well. I worked my way throught 2 documents: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/515/cpsid_51584.html and http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/515/cpsid_51552.html. I both did them step by step. including the removal and re-installation of the software. Nothing helped, the results stay the same: projects do not open, and the screen stays grey.
Can anybody help me?
With kind regards,

Hi Neale,
Thank you for being there again...
I worked through your list:
Install all Windows Updates. (All updates are installed)
Install latest version of Apple QuickTime (v7.6.9 at time of writing). Even if you don't use QuickTime, PRE relies heavily on it. (I updated from 7.6.8 to 7.6.9)
•Install most recent graphics and sound drivers from the manufacturers web sites. (The most recent versions are installed: video: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4670 V 8.631.0.0; sound ATI High Definition Audio Device V5.0.7000.4)
Free up at least 30GB, preferably 60GB disk space(130 GB available)
Run Disk Cleanup. (I did so)
Run Defragmenter. (I did so)
Temporarily disable any anti-virus realtime scanning. (I use McAfee, and it is kind of hard to find the 'switch'... I haven't been able to switch it off yet.)
Tonight, when I started my computer up, APE worked. After closing APE and using the IE I could no longer open my project.
Sometimes I feel as if it might have something to do with a memory issue. As if there is not enough memory. I use a Dell Studio XPS 16 with Windows 7 and 4 GB memory and 1920x1080 resolution.
With kind regards,

Project launches iMovie HD, but doesn't open

I have an edit on iMovie HD, which for some reason launches iMovie, but doesn't open. Has anyone got any suggestions?

Try deleting the imovie preference file.
Close Imovie.
Then locate a file named com.apple.imovie.plist and get rid of it. Then empty the trash, run a permissions repair with disk utility and restart. That should do it. The files you need to delete are found in:
/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.imovie.plist

Can't drag images to the project bin in photoshop Element 8

Hello,
I'm new to Photoshop Element 8 on Mac ( I was using photoshop element 5 on PC before). For some reason I can't seem to be able to drag any files to my project bin! The only way I have managed to open files in PSE 8 is trough the File-Open menu which is really annoying and makes everything very time consuming. Help Please!
D.B.

Hi DB
You can do this from the OS.
Open the Editor.
Open the folder and minimize it.
Command click on the items you want or select all and drag into the main window of the PSE Editor.
Or simply select the number of images you want in organizer and hit Full Edit.

HELP: Speedgrade doesn't open!!!

HI,
The newest version of SG CC 2014 doesn't open up sincen today!!!
I have read of others facing this problem, but haven't found a solution.
THIS CANNOT BE! This is ought to be a professional software....
I need to deliver on sunday, every minute counts.
I require assistance immediatly please.
Thanks.
Specs:
Windows 8.1 / i7 4930k / ASUS P9X79 / Gigabyte 770 4GB / Corsair H100i / G.Skill 32 GB 2133mhz RAM / Cooler Master V850 / 250 GB SSD C-Drive
Thanks!

I seem to have some major issues:
Speedgrade crashed right after starting up (I reinstalled it twice), though when I checked in the task manager it was running, but: no UI or anything....
Then I open Premiere and tried the Direct Link, that somehow worked and the UI popped up suddendly, but its far from perfect:
it is extremly laggy, not useable at all. Haven't had this extrem lag ever before...Absolutly not possible to work under these conditions. (Not just on the one project)
every 2-3 minute when I try to make an adjustment the monitor turns white and it looks like it is going to crahs, though it doesn't
some masks are totally dislocated (see the other thread i made!)
when I sended i back to PR it had an error an didn't open.
When I tried an older project file - which somehow worked - i coudln't preview the colour changes and just see the picture when lumetri was turned off...
I had a generic error when I tried to export out the project, couldn't export it!
I' am really shocked and I don't think its my fault but please let me know if I do anything wrong.
I coudln't find files/bins under the directory you gave me!
This is a mess, probably taking the DA VINCI route - eventhough painfull for a Premiere User - is still less complicated and more versatile than Speedgrade...
Adobe should stop releasing new UIs and other fancy stuff - rather make your Softwares work correctly!!!!
Sorry for complaining but my mood is quite messed up right know!
Project needs to be done on Sunday evening, so please help me out...LAG and Crashes are killing me.
Please let me know if you need more info.
Best
