Question about Photoshop Elements 8

I am a new user and just downloaded the trial version of Photoshop Elements 8.  I have Windows 7.  When I go to Create/Slideshow I get the message "Phfotoshop Elements not responding?  Can I correct this and if so, how?

Try reinstalling the application and see if this works.

  • I have a question about photoshop elements 11

    can i create templates on elements 11 of customize templates of skins on games with elements 11

    I believe that Amazon (the actual Amazon, and not semi-affiliated merchents) WAS a certified Adobe reseller. However, with the CC (Creative Cloud), I am not sure about that any longer - others can verify their certification.
    As CS 5 is discontinued software, I would NOT expect Adobe to be selling that version - anywhere.
    Research ANY reseller, and very, very carefully.
    Also, do gain the rights to manipulate and post ALL © material - that is not only smart, but also honest and ethical.
    Good luck,

    PS - you might also want to explore two other, current Adobe programs: Photoshop Elements 11, and Premiere Elements 11. They are often sold in bundles, for about the MSRP on one. Together, they will handle most Still Image editing needs, and also Video creation and editing. They are both very inexpensive, but powerful programs.

  • Question about Photoshop Elements 11, Windows 8, and new Dell Computer

    Since I bought a new Dell Inspirion 660 computer, running Windows 8, my Photoshop Elements 11 occassionally gives me an error message saying I cannot save the file because I do not have enough RAM.  I have 8GB of RAM.  I never had this problem on my Old Dell Windows XP computer.  Any suggestions?

    Try reinstalling the application and see if this works.

  • Question about Photoshop Elements, not sure where else to post at.

    I am looking to be able to add layers and do some fun type editing for photos to use as backgrounds and media shows. I'm new to this. I am planning to add Photoshop Elements and was just curious if it does enough different stuff from iPhoto 11 to make it worth it as well as enough to avoid purchasing the bigger more expensive Photoshop programs. I am also wondering where to get good tutorials on learning to use it, if so. Any help? Thanks.

    PhotoShop Elements will do what you want, and is a good complement to iPhoto. For learning it, I suggest Barbara Brundage's excellent Missing Manual for PhotoShop Elements (Macintosh).

    Adobe also has lots of tutorials on their website.

  • Steffinhillboy has a question about Photoshop Elements 6

    I am working in Photoshop Elements7 and edited some photos and thought I saved and exited properly but now the photos still have a RED LINE Through them with  a lock symbol and the words EDIT IN PROGRESS can anyone tell me how to get rid of the red line and save the photos properly. I don't want to loose my photos and I can't find a way to clear the REDLINE .  Please HELP!

    Thank you so much, it was driving me crazy for quite a while cause I couldn't figure out how to get rid of the locked photo and didn't want to loose it either. 

  • Newbie question about Premiere Elements Organizer

    This is a pre-newbie – let’s say “virgin” question. If there is an answer already posted elsewhere, please send me a link.
    I’m about to install Premiere Elements 9 to do some clip editing and animation from still images.  This would be my first attempt to edit clip or do some animation from still images, besides using Windows Media Maker with my HS students. However, I have been a pretty serious photographer for 20+ years with 1,000’s of images which I now work on in PS CS5 Extended and Lightroom 3. I use Adobe Bridge and LR library to catalogue and organize my images. I’d like to continue to use AB / LR Library to organize my new clips and projects. From reading Bill’s posts, it seems I can use Adobe Bridge, copy my original file, resize in Photoshop, and save in a new folder to use for a Premiere project. This would seem to be most intuitive way for me to work. I already have keywords, metadata, actions in PS… etc. But I think Bill is using Premiere Pro, while I’ll be installing Premiere Elements, which comes bundled with Elements Organizer. Do I need to install or use Elements Organizer? What are the advantages/disadvantages or EO?  I guess I’m a little worried about installing the programs and having EO automatically acquire images using presets/defaults that I don’t want to use as well as issues with subfolders, etc. I'm running Windows 7.
    Thanks
    FYI- this is a great animation project

    EO doesn't do much with the files themselves, just maintains links to the sources.
    For folders you are best to use the folder view in EO to move them as it doesn't keep track of folder locations when changed in Windows Explorer. From the File options in Bridge I think that is pretty much the same.

    I would like to get as much input as possible on the advantages/disadvantages of using EO vs say Adobe Bride from others who use Elements Organizer.
    Any insights would be appreciated.
    Can anyone who has used both EO and AB comment on how EO handles missing (hidden) files, syncing issues, computer hanging up or crashing....etc?
    I've only messed around a little with Bridge. But to me it seems lightening fast by comparison to EO. The features Albums and Tags in EO seem much the same as Collections and Keywords in Bridge.
    EO has Face Recognition abilities - getting more sophisticated in each version. I've not seen this feature in Bridge.
    By default EO allows you to open a file in any of:
    Photoshop
    Photoshop Elements
    Premiere Elements
    A single used-defined application (I have mine set to ColorPilot).
    Bridge only seems to link to Photoshop.
    Missing files can be located manually or by allowing EO to search for them.

  • Basic questions about Premiere Elements 8

    I'm new to this forum and although I use Photoshop Elements extensively, I am just trialling Premiere Elements 8. I have a number of questions from my (very limited) testing so far:
    1. Most of the videos that I download from my Sony DCR-DVD110 DVDs behave fine, but one of them only has half an audio track. The full audio was there on the DVD, but in the project it appears that the second half of the audio has been moved to overlay the first half, instead of following on. The video format is VOB. Has anyone else had this problem, or could suggest how it can be remedied?
    2. I understand from the help that I can split incoming video from a DV camcorder using the timecode on the tape. However, I do not seem to get the same option when downloading from DVD as above. The scene-splitter in the project list only allows content detection (which is unreliable), or regular divisions. Does anyone know if there a timecode on the VOB files, and is there a way of using this to split video into clips that is more reliable than scene detection?
    3. I do not understand the red/green line that appears under the Timeline ruler, just above the video. In one project, I have cleared clips out of the timeline and copied new ones in. The green or red line no longer changes at clip boundaries. Where it is green, the clip audio plays back, but not the video. Where it is red, both play. I do not seem to be able to find out what this means, let alone how to change it, and do not know how I set it in the first place. Does anyone know what this coloured line means, and how to change it so that all of the clips play both audio and video?
    4. When I start the program from the Welcome Screen, it gives me the option of opening an old project. Even though I select the project that I wish to open, this does not happen. Premiere Elements 8 starts, but the project does not load. Is this just a limitation of the trial version, or a common problem? Can I skip the Welcome screen and go straight into Premiere Elements 8?
    I'm looking to buy Premiere Elements 8 along with an upgrade to Photoshop Elements 8, for the compatibility and common file organiser, but so far the above problems are putting me off a purchase. The programme also does not seem to be as intuitive as Studio 7, which was the last video editing software that I used (some years ago, taking data from a DV camcorder).
    Your help and any recommendations that you may be able to add would be most welcome.

    Virtually all of your problems are related to your trying to edit video from a DVD camcorder. Although the program is supposed to be able to work with these video files, they can be very problematic if your computer's operating system is not fully updated, you lack the current version of Quicktime and you do not have the proper codecs installed.
    The red lines you're seeing above your video on the timeline are indications of this. These are indications that your video needs to be rendered by the program in order for the program to work with it.
    If you'd like to try to work with DVD cam video despite these liabilities, there are things you can do to improve performance somewhat.The FAQs to the right of this forum explain how and why.
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/415317?tstart=0
    But I recommend you convert your VOB files to DV-AVIs before you bring them into Premiere Elements. This will likely remedy nearly all of your problems (assuming your computer's hardware and software are up to the necessary specs and are fully updated).

  • Question about Photoshop

    What is the difference between:
    Photoshop® CS2
    Adobe Photoshop® Elements 4.0 plus Adobe Premiere® Elements 2.0
    Photoshop® Elements 4.0 for Windows
    Photoshop® Album 2.0
    Premiere® Pro 1.5
    Premiere® Elements 2.0
    Photoshop® Elements 4.0 plus Adobe Premiere® Elements 2.0
    Also I wanted to know about these products:
    Video Collection 2.5
    Last I wanted to know what program do I need to convert documents to PDF

    Believe me, there was never a free trial for PE 4. They may have assumed, and the free trial for PE 3/mac was up for many months after PE 4/mac was released, but there was never a free trial for the mac version of PE 4, although there was one for the windows version. I am sure of this. It's my business to know.

  • Few questions about Photoshop CS4 Student Edition

    I'm thinking of getting a DSLR camera in the summer, so (since I'm a geek) I want to make sure I've got all the software I'll need to edit the photos once I've taken them. The catch is that I graduate from university this year, so if I'm going to buy Photoshop (ie if I'm going to _afford_ Photoshop) I need to do so in the next couple of months to get the educational discount.
    I've just got a few questions as to whether I actually need Photoshop CS4 for my situation:
    *I already have Lightroom 2 (courtesy of Amazon Vine!) for processing RAW files, doing basic colour adjustment etc. Would I get £150 worth of extra usage from Photoshop CS4 compared to Lightroom?
    *What DRM/copy protection does Photoshop CS4 use? Is it the same that's used in Lightroom 2 (hasn't given me any problems) or the Macrovision stuff that installs a background service (called something like 'Adobe LM monitor') on your computer?
    *If I need to reactivate over the phone some time in the future (e.g. when I move to a new computer and I've already used the activations) do I still need to be a qualifying student?
    Reckoned there wouldn't be a better place to ask these than PS forums :)

    >then you just don't know enough about photoshop.
    Actually, if you had read the initial post you'd realise that I'm fully aware that Photoshop is hugely powerful. However it doesn't offer enough benefit for my usage (ie retouching of amateur photos) to make it worth the money + computer infection. My above post wasn't an attempt to say that Photoshop is bad, or that Gimp or any of these other freeware programs are even in the same league, I was just stating that my own need for Photoshop's power isn't great enough to make me want to install spyware.
    >hmmm how about A PAYING JOB! i think that's what the clincher is for most folks.
    True, but (again, as I explained above) I'm not a professional photographer/graphic artist/etc. and therefore there is no 'need it for work' motivation.

  • Question: Reinstall Photoshop Elements

    Because I was having problems, I uninstalled Photoshop Elements 9. Now Adobe does not recognize the serial # that I put in when I try to reinstall.

    Did you "de-activate" your product before uninstalling it from the system?  If not, why not and how are you going to activate your product again because online activation might just fail if you have already activated on two different machines.
    However, this apart, please let us know if you have any other Adobe products installed on your system.  Ignore any trial software because these can be re-installed again if need be.
    Finally, it might be your worthwhile to try Adobe Cleaner Utility to remove all traces of any Adobe products.  Please don't use the tool unless you have read everything about it on Adobe page I have linked above.  It is a dangerous tool in the hands of a newbie.

  • Question about Premiere Elements

    I am considering purchasing Premiere Elements but I need to know if one can use it to add effects to an animated gif file.
    For example, in Photoshop Elements one can add certain effects to a gif image, such as giving it certain textures or filters.
    Can one do the same kind of thing in Premiere Elements and if so can it be done to an animated gif file?
    Thanks for your help.

    Premiere Elements does not work with animated GIFs as source video.
    Photoshop Pro would be a much better choice.

  • Email Account Question for Photoshop Elements 10 Organizer

    I can create draft photo emails and email messages with attachments in Photoshop Elements 10 Organizer, but I cannot activate and send them apparently unless my client is Microsoft Outlook.  I have two other email accounts that I want to use, but not Microsoft Outlook.  I don't want yet another account.  Why can't I establish my own preferred email client for this purpose?  If I can, then how do I do it when no option is provided at least within the Organizer.

    Which email client you want to use?
    You should be able to configure your email client with Adobe Email Services in Organizer. Do you see Adobe Email Service in Edit >> Pref >> Sharing-
    Thanks

  • Question re Photoshop Elements upgrade

    I have upgraded Photoshop Elements from v10 to v11 (without deleting v10).  However, v11 can't 'see' my catalogue.  How do I fix this?

    Thanks - I've now got my catalog recognised in PSE 11.  However, while all
    the images have retained all of their tags, none of the People tags, nor
    the People Category heading, appear in the right hand tag column, although
    the Places tags are all there!  Is there a way to recover the missing tags?
