Question around elements organizer and importing

I have PSE 8 and until recently, everytime I would import the photos from my card reader, I would get a filtered view with only the photos that I have imported. From there I could add the tags.
For some reason now, I no longer get that view after a import and I have no idea how to enable it again. I found the batch view mode, and that helps, but I would prefer to do it the old way where I got the view by default.
Any ideas on how to get this back?
Thanks

I downloaded and installed Photoshop Elements & Premiere Elements. I then launched Photoshop Elements Organizer and imported approx. 28,000 photos (including some videos). A window opened indicating that many of the photos had tags, and asking if I wanted to add the tags. I said yes, and the process began. When it reached 60% a window opened indicating that "Elements 13 Organizer has stopped working", with the only option being to "Close program."
I've since tried to open organizer several times, but it goes immediately to "Elements 13 Organizer has stopped working". I was able to open Editor, and tried opening Organizer from Editor, but encountered the same problem.
FYI, I have an open case (#0214505556), but have not received the help I need.

This issue is with respect to Elements 13.

How do elements organizer and adobe photoshop elements relate? Unclear how/where to save edited photos

I don't understand how elements organizer and adobe photoshop elements relate - how/where do I save edited photos? I tried to save them on my hard drive and the result was a 65 MB file!!! Not sure what I'm doing wrong :/ - maybe I'm saving the entire folder every time instead of just an individual photo?

There is no standard field for faces. To transfer information you must put it in the standard place that the new program will use. That does not exist for faces. One work around would be to use keywords. You include the available metadata in a photo by checking all if the boxes when you export the photo(s). What the receiving program is determined by the authors of that program. All iPhoto can do is write what it offers to the IPTC & EXIF fields which it will

Elements organizer 13 import iphoto problem

I've tried 3 times to import my photos into Elements Organizer and it keeps getting stuck and locking up in the same place. Is it because I'm trying to import too many files? Movies? Its very frustrating. Any suggestions?

UPDATE: Unmounted my external hard drives. Found the Adobe file and deleted it. Apparently most of the photos in iPhoto had copied to my hard drive but did not show up in the Organizer. Deleted that file and my hard drive is back to where it was. If I try this again, I will try to designate one of the externals as the place for the Organizer files. But since the one was about 120 GB, I probably won't try that again.

I just downloaded Photoshop Elements 13 and IMPORT is not functional. What is wrong?

I just downloaded Photoshop Elements 13 and IMPORT is not functional. I reinstalled the printer /scanner and still not functional. My computer is recognizing the printer. What is wrong?

I guess the first thing you now need to do is to get the latest drivers for your printer because as you say you uninstalled it from your machine and now reinstalled it again. I don't know why you thought printer should have been uninstall;led but anyway, please reinstall the driver and then see if it is recognized by your operating system and try scanning something as a test from outside the PSE13 before going back to PSE13 and trying to scan your real image.
Please post back so that Barbara or R_Kelly can help you as I don't use Apple Mac.

Adobe Elements 11 Organizer and Importing images from camera.

I changed Adobe Elements version (from 10 to 11) and Brand New all-in-one Dell XPS computer that comes with Windows 8 as OS (From XP SP3) ... Now my import in Adobe Organzer gets stuck. Adobe Elements sees the camera, and compares the files on my camera to the photos in Organizer and knows how may are duplicates. I then select all the photos it finds as Non-Duplicates and tell it what directory to import into and select (Finish/Import) and it just sits there. I can change anything on that screen for options, but it really is locked up. I have to use Task Manager to end the task so that I can get back into Adobe Organizer. Maybe there is some kind of incompatibility with Windows 8 I am not aware of?

As you said "I am using this method as a bandaid, but this method will constantly copy all files (including old photos still on card) to a new folder. This means that I have the same photo being copied from my cameras memory to multiple locations. Not the best method (lots of clutter). "
This is not so. Importing photos using Watched Folders doesn't copy your photos to any other location.
Please empty your card and add 1-2 images to it. Now launch Photodownloader.exe from the location : C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 11 Organizer
Post doing this, launch Organizer. Let's see if the import happens.

Lightroom versus PhotoShop Elements Organizer and Bridge

This is directed to the Adobe Developer Team
I hope someone of the Developer team is reading this!!
For my understanding the three products out of one house (PhotoShop Elements Organizer, Bridge and Lightroom) doing about the same, should ...
work the same (same idea, same behaviour, organizing by path/subfolders instead of cataloges etc.)
maintain the same database and files (LR should recognize the collections from BR and Vice Versa, use the same cache files etc.) and should
be compatible to each other (e.g. Tags, Collections etc)
Actually I suggest ADOBE
to eliminate Organizer and integrate the good functions into BRIDGE (e.g. albums, upload to flickr, webpage generation etc)
give BRIDGE as the free of charge picture organizer to PS Elements and to PS CS
change LIGHTROOM into an payable upgrade of BRIDGE with enhanced functionality of the free of charge BRIDGE, (which can work as a stand-alone software as it does today
better integration of PSE, PS CS into Bridge/Lightroom (e.g. Panaorama function opens only PS CS but the version of PSE works much better, so I want to choose in the menu of Bridge/Lightroom)
I am really struggling with the three of them.
Beside that I suggest to get rid of the Catalog idea of Lightroom with it's import/export and synchronization needs and instead use or at least integrate the idea of BRIDGE to get pictures structured and organized by path and subfolders, as this is anyhow how the way pictures are stored already for most of us... I asume. I doubt that anybody just throw all files into one big subdirectory and get the organized into cataloges. But please keep collections as they are helpful to quickly collect some pictures to commonly work on them. by drag & drop. The Catalogues of LR drives me crazy but LR have a lot of nice functions (e.g. Webupload interfaces to flickr and others, nice noice reduction, nice albums and webpage functions, etc.)
Thanks
Merry X-Mas and a Happy New Year
Georg
PS: Please all of you comment your experience and opinion on this matter ... I am interested what you think about it.

Hi George,
Whereas Bridge and Photoshop Elements (and most non-LR users) base their organisation on the file / folder structure, Lightroom uses files / folders simply for storage - the catalog is used for organisation. This 'catalog based approach' provides far more flexibility, both in organisation, and in recording a complete, fully-reversible record of all edits made to each photograph.
To suggest that Adobe "get rid of the Catalog idea of Lightroom" and "get pictures structured and organized by path and subfolders" would remove almost ALL advantages Lightroom has over Bridge & PS Elements combined. To fully appreciate Lightroom, you need to appreciate that files and folders are not the only way to organise photos. Why not watch a few of the Adobe Lightroom Tutorial videos? This link below takes you to a video explaining about the Catalog;
http://tv.adobe.com/watch/george-jardine-on-lightroom/the-lightroom-catalog/
However, if you really want Adobe to hear your views, why not raise a Feature request with them, at this link below;
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
I'm sure if you call your feature request 'Remove Catalog from Lightroom, and organise by Folders instead', it'll get noticed, as will any forum posts of the same name...
Cheers,
Alan

Elements Organizer Help | Import photos from your camera or card reader

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/getting-started/import-camera-or-card-reader.htm l

Did you try the "create subfolder" option in the Adobe Photo Downloader? If you choose the option to create subfolders using "shot date[mm yy]" I think it would solve the problem you are discribing. And in the case when nothing works, you can always choose the advanced button and manually select the photos you want to import

Question about temporary tables and imports.

Hello everybody.
Interesting one this. We have an application that uses global temporary tables. We refresh live to test using import of the application schema. I noticed when doing this yesterday that the temporary tables were being recreated in test as perminant rather than temporary.
Is there a reason for this? Has anyone come across this before? Is there a way around it (apart from manual checking)?
Many thanks
Rup

Elements Organizer and Editor Image Differences?

I've noticed that the images displayed by Photoshop Elements Organizer are noticeable different from the display of the same image file by the Elements Editor. Why does this happen and is there a way to correct one or the other displays. Generally, the Organizer image appears to have more color saturation than when the image is viewed in the Editor. As a side note, the same image displayed in the Photoshop CS5 Editor appears to look about the same as it does in the Elements Editor.
Other information: I have a Windows 7 64-bit system with dual calibrated monitors. It does not matter which image appears on which monitor -- the PSE Organizer image always has greater color saturation.

That seems to be a reasonable explanation. Since a thumbnail does not have as much information as the actual file, it shouldn't be surprising that visual difference exist. I just wasn't expecting them to be quite so noticeable.

Elements Organizer and Editor Fonts Too Small

Is Adobe ever going to fix this problem of the fonts not adjusting their size in both the organizer and the editor? The only option to alter the font seems to be to switch to a "System Font", but that option doesn't work. It doesn't change the font size at all, even if you turn off Aero and set the system font to 125%, the menu fonts don't change. In short, the software is not Windows compliant, afte how many years that Adobe has been making a windows version of this ptogram?
The default font size can't be read more than a foot or so away from the screen on today's pretty much standard 22" 1680x1050 LCD display. On top of that, who in their right mind thinks black text on a gray backgound effects 'contrast' rather than 'blend'?
I've searched the internet regarding this problem, and it seems to have persisted through multiple versions of this software, but has gotten worse through versions 7, 8 and 9 based on user numerous posts. Actually, it looks like Adobe just doesn't plan on addressing the problem at all.
Does anyone even get a response from Adobe when they post about this font issue? It doesn't look like it, as far as I can see.

That seems to be a reasonable explanation. Since a thumbnail does not have as much information as the actual file, it shouldn't be surprising that visual difference exist. I just wasn't expecting them to be quite so noticeable.

Photoshop Elements Organizer and Bridge

Our small company has several Windows versions of Photoshop Elements 3.0 of which is primarily used for the Organizer to organize a collection of client images (all nicely tagged), however, the tags are incompatible with our Mac version of Photoshop CS3's Bridge (as such, the Mac is lagging behind the Windows-based organisation of Organizer, which is being prodiminantly populated by Organizer users).
We hoped the new Mac Photoshop Elements 8 would finally get around to shipping with the Organizer, but as it still doesn't, we wondered if it is was possible to install Bridge on the Windows machines in place of the Organizer? and could we import all our current Organizer settings?
Apaprently Bridge will work on a machine so long as other Adobe software is installed, which is fine for our Elements machines, but where can we download it?
Some help on this would be much appreciated.

I'm not sure you really understand the difference between Bridge and Organizer, which may or may not matter one way or the other. Bridge is a browser, not an asset management program, so it doesn't have a catalog. It just shows the files in the folder to which you point it. There are no version sets or albums in bridge, although you can make collections. The only way to get your current collections out of organizer would be to make tags for them and write them to the files, then reassemble the collections in bridge by keyword searching.
The upside to a program like bridge is that it doesn't care where or how you move your files around. You can do whatever you want when bridge isn't running and it won't complain that it can't find things anymore.

Elements Organizer and Photoshop Elements Editor

jadco32, the organizer is just a database. It doesn't make duplicates (unless you use the import from iphoto command on a mac). That's also an advantage of using version sets: instead of creating a complete image, each version exists as essentially just a set of directions to PSE until you ask for that particular version, so this also saves a lot of space.
Barbara,
It's exceptionally rare when I don't agree with you...
But on that one, there must be a confusion : the creation of version sets does really create a modified copy of the original file.
Creating a set of directions is the way you can edit files in ACR or Lightroom : (parametric edition).
In practice :
You open a raw or jpeg file in ACR in PSE, use the sliders to get the desired rendition, then you click 'Done'. No edited duplicate has been created.
Your edits are saved and you don't lose any important disk space, since the edits are stored in a tiny .xmp sidecar file.
But if you click 'Open' and edit/save the picture, a version set is created : a modified copy linked to the original.
You can have many 'versions' of an original : for printing, the web, black and white, with filter effects... It's always easy to find the original and your workspace can show only one version to show more different pictures in the browsing space for quicker visual selection.

Elements Organizer and Lightroom Catalog

When using Lightroom 5 and Elements 12 how are the calalog and organizer synced? And how should files be saved.
In Lightroom I chose to edit a photo in Elements when I saved it and went back to Lightroom I could not locate it. It was saved as a .psd file.
When found it in Finder I could not Import it into Llightroom.
Larry

Perhaps you made the mistake of using Save As rather than Save. So you will have created a new file which Lightroom knows nothing about.
You need to start the round trip from LR as follows and use the save command (Cmd+S) not save as:
1) Cmd+E in the Library to export selected image with develop settings (I choose PSD)
2) Edit in Photoshop Elements; then Cmd+S to replace (overwrite) Lightroom export copy
3) Cmd+W to close in Photoshop Elements and update Lightroom thumbnail.
