Pse 7 edited photos

Hi i have just started using PSE7 and if i use the auto fix feature it make a copy of the photo in the same directory as the original this is ok if there are only 1 or 2 photos to pick out, but its a bit of a pain if there are loaded of photos in the same folder.
Is it possible to tell PSE 7 to save the edited files to a different folder please
Regards

There is no way to change that behavior.  For many of us who use the Organizer to manage large catalogs, though, it's not an issue, since we use the Organizer for almost all of our managent of photos and rarely look at the folders using Windows Explorer.  The Organizer puts all of the edited versions of a photo in a single "version set".

    How do I save an edited photo in PSE 12. It keeps saying editing in progress

    You mean in the organizer? Go back to the edtior and save the way you would in any program (ctrl+S/command+S or File>Save) and close the image there.

  • Editing photos (from iphoto) in PSE 11

    I've recently upgraded to PSE 11 from PSE 10. Previously, when I click edit in iphoto, the photo that I want to edit automatically opens up in PSE 10 and I can do my edit rightaway.
    However, the photo does not open up automatically in PSE 11 now. My computer will launch PSE 11 but I have to manually load the photo for editing.
    I've done the necessary settings in iphoto (i.e edit using external editor) but it's still not working like it used to.
    Is this a change in feature in PSE 11 or I'm missing something here?
    Appreciate all advice and tips on this.
    Thank you.

    In iphoto, for any edited photo (no matter where you edited), to see the original, select the edited photo and go to Photo>Revert to Original. iPhoto remembers your original, but versions in iphoto don't work the same way the do in PSE, at least not when you use an external editor. iPhoto assumes that if you want to use another program for editing, you want to use that other program for editing. If you want to use iphoto instead, you would need to revert it. If you want to have both available, the original and PSE edit, some versions of iphoto automatically send a duplicate for editing, but I don't think the latest version does, so make a duplicate in iphoto and send that to PSE.
    An external editor is by definition external --the photo left iphoto to get edited. The external editor mechanism merely lets you  get your edited photos back into iphoto again automatically.

  • 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?

    You are probably choosing the obvious file rather than the correct file as the PSE editor. The actual editor is hidden away inside the Support Files folder. The PSE file at the top level of the PSE folder in Applications is just an alias for the welcome screen and what you're describing is exactly what happens when you choose that. You want this one:

  • Editing Photos in Photoshop Elements

    I can't sort out what happens to my photo edits when done in PSE. I am careful to save the file as a .jpg and save it to the same folder. Nonetheless when I look at the photo in iPhoto, I see the unedited version. I've got to believe that his is, "pilot error" but for the life of me I can't find the correction.
    I find the file that I want to edit via "file", "open" from PSE, then enter the file number that I see in iPhoto, "information" e.g. img_3405. I edit the file in PSE and save, even getting the "...do you want to replace it?" warning. When I go back to iPhoto, even after close and open, I see the unedited photo. Arrrrrrg!
    What do I do (or expect) wrong?

    save it to the same folder.
    Are accessing PSE from within iPhoto or from the Finder? Are you saving with the same file name?
    Here are some tips on using PSE from within iPhoto:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
    If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.

  • Trying to open file in photoshop elements, only first option available in Edit Photo window.  The other two has "Edit a Copy is not applicable to raw or Digital Negative files" same for Edit Original.

    Brand new user to Lightroom 5.  Was following tutorials and doing fine editing.  After done editing NEF files, I'm trying to open them in PSE 11 to further edit.  Using the "Edit Photo with Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor".  But the window only has the first option available and the other two grayed out.  Each of those has "...is not applicable to raw or Digital Negative files."  What??

    sorry, no can do...ain't gonna happen.
    What you've done is hit the wall on is the basic difference between lite duty spot healing and photo level tone and color correction (Lightroom and Camera Raw) and heavy duty pixel retouching in Photoshop.
    When you need to substantially manipulate the "pixels" you need Photoshop and you'll be forced to render the raw file into a TIFF or PSD file either through Camera Raw or more better, via Lightroom.
    You can do the basic tone and color correction directly in Lightroom and edit in Photoshop from Lightroom. But you will NEED to create and save out a "rendered" image that is no longer raw...then retouch to your heart's desire, save it and it'll be available in Lightroom along side your original raw if you choose.
    But no, there's no way to open a raw in Photoshop, manipulate the heck out of it with massive retouching then save that back out as a raw file...ain't gonna happen.

  • How can I avoid having to save edited photos to desktop?

    I use iPhoto '09 for organizing my photos and Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac for editing my photos, most of which are JPEGs. My procedure is to make a duplicate of the photo I wish to edit and then hand it off to PSE 6 for editing via the Edit in External Editor option.
    I notice a strange phenomenon when saving my photos after editing them. Sometimes the photos can be saved directly to the same folder in which the unedited duplicate version resides (my preference), but more often I have to save the edited version to my desktop and then import it into my iPhoto program. I have not been able to discern a reason why I need to save the edited images to my desktop. The system seems arbitrary in this regard. I don't recall having this issue to deal with when I used iPhoto '06 and PSE 4 for Mac. I would appreciate somebody explaining this phenomenon and indicate how I can consistently save an edited photo directly to the folder in which the unedited version resides instead of having to save it to my desktop and then import it into iPhoto.
    For your information I use iPhoto Library Manager.

    A simple rule of thumb is: if the file format of the edited photo does not change due to the editing the file is saved to the Modified folder and viewed by iPhoto as if iPhoto did the editing. If the editing requires a format change, i.e. from jpg to psd then the new file must be saved to the desktop and imported as a new photo. The following expands on that:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.

  • I can't get elements 10 to edit photos from Iphoto?

    I have not been able to edit photos from iphoto in elements 10. When I press the edit key in iphoto the edit program opens in elements10 but no photo to edit appears.
    The Preference selection to Advanced for Editing has elements 10 editor selected. Why is it not accepting the image to edit?

    Are you sure? You are using the PSE file inside the support folder and not the file at the top level of the PSE 10 folder in applications as your external editor? I've never known of any other reason for your photo not to appear in the PSE editor. Does the editor open?
    Usually this happens when you've set the welcome screen to automatically open the editor so that you don't see the welcome screen anymore. Did you ever change that setting in the PSE welcome screen?

  • Saving Elements 9 Edited photos to IPhoto 11

    I am fairly new to using IPhoto. Elements is old hat to me. When I edit a photo in Elements and save it to IPhoto it seems to get lost. I shoot in RAW, cntrl click and say open in external editor (Elements 9) and do my editing. Then I do a "save as" and change the extension to jpg or psd and save it with the same name or give the file a new name with a jpg extension and save it to the same place indicated in the "save as" dialog box. I cannot locate the saved files in IPhoto in the same album as it came from. Color me frustrated as ****!!

    This may be of some help:

  • Pls Help a newbie - editing photos in PS8 - iPhoto

    Hi
    I've got a brand new mac - never had a mac before so bear with me. I am trying to learn this iPhoto etc. Just installed Photoshop Elements 8. But I am at a loss as how to use it all.
    I manage to set PSE as the editor from iPhoto. I learned that I need to start in iPhoto when I want to edit or open anything. Done. When I edit a photo in PSE and click 'save', iPhoto nicely updates the image in the library.
    But when I make copy (I do not want to touch the original file so make a new image file) it gets stored somewhere else on the computer and is not visible in iPhoto. Importing it did not work either (although I am still not clear WHERE it is saved).
    How on earth can I keep all my image files (which will consist of originals (jpg and tiffs) and edited photos (jpg and tiff) together? I was hoping iPhoto would be the ideal (I am a previous pc user so am used to just storing things in 'my documents' and 'my images').
    Please help!
    Thank you very much.

    what is the function of iphoto over standard folders?
    FIles in folders give you just that: files in folders.
    Photos in iPhoto (or Aperture) give you unlimited ways to categorise, organise and find any photo in your collection, plus multiple ways to share those photos.
    For instance I often use the following to illustrate ways in which you can organise with iPhoto:
    I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums exensively. I title the pics broadly.
    I keyword on a
    Who
    What
    Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
    Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 25k library in a couple of seconds.
    So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
    File -> New Smart Album
    set it to 'All"
    title contains Seattle
    keyword is mountain
    keyword is snow
    rating is 5 stars
    Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
    New Smart Album
    Keyword is John
    Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
    Want only the best pics?
    add Rating is greater than 4 stars
    The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
    Keywording takes time to set up, there's no doubt about it. I use Keyword Manager as it's much more powerful than the inbuilt system, and adds the possibility of nested keywords. So, for instance, if I add John to a photo it also adds 'Family'. Now I can add many keywords to a pic quickly.
    In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.
    (Try do that with files and folders!)
    On top of that: Pics in iPhoto or Aperture are available in every single Open... or Attach... window in the entire OS etc etc etc
