Missing files in Photoshop Elements 8

I just upgraded from PSE 7 to PSE 8. All photos in PSE 7 are viewable, crisp and clear (about 7000 photos going back to year 1999). Each year I make new folders of the events for that year and keep them under my Photos folder on my "D" drive (have one HD partitioned into a "C" and "D" drives).   In 2010, I made folders for various events and titled them according. Example are 2010 - Easter; 2010 - Hawaii, 2010 - Convention, etc. All of the earlier photos (prior to 2010) for 2009 and earlier years "converted" without any apparent problems in PSE 8. Several of the 2010 folders also converted without any problems, but the three most recent folders of photos show as blurry thumbnails in the PSE 8 Elements Organizer screen and when clicked on say "searching for the missing file". The file cannot be found.
As far as I know there is no difference from the way these 3 folders of photos are titled and were imported into PSE 7, where they continue be viewable as sharp photos. In other words, in PSE 7 there is no problem but in PSE 8 these three files of photos cannot "be found".
Anyone have any idea what the problem is and how to overcome it? If not, then I guess it was a mistake to upgrade from PSE 7 to PSE 8 as PSE 7 is working perfectly. Best bet is just remove PSE 8 until this problem is fixed???
Running Windows Vista Ultimate.

Found the solution. I cloned the drive like you did and PSE became confused since there are now two drives with identical volumeid. It kept pointing to F: when I wanted to point to C:.    I cloned C: when I installed F:    so both F: and C: now has the same volumeid. Download volumeid from microsoft and verify that they are have the same volume id by typing vol C:    and then vol F: . After verifying that they both indeed have the same volumeid, type volumeid F: 1111-1111. Basically change the volume id of F: to 1111-1111. Reboot and PSE should now point all the files to C:

Missing files from photoshop elements 6

I AM NOT ABLE TO PRINT, DURN TO CD OR TRANS TO USB SOME OF MY PICTURES IN MY ORGANIZER. CAN NOT RECONNECT BECAUSE THERE IS NO FILE TO BE FOUND WHEN I TRY RECONNECTING. I WAS TOLD 1ST FIND FILE I DID THAT. 2ND FIND PATH THIS I DON'T KNOW
HOW TO DO. AND I WAS TOLD I WOULD BE ABLE TO RECONNECT. IF ANYONE HAS THE ANSWER THANKS.

Are you sure that you have not deleted files from your system ? Reconnect makes a search for these files on your sysem. If files are not available, then I dont think there is any option.
Did you have backup of those files somewhere else _

How to open a .pse file in photoshop elements?

Hello,
All my previous files were saved as (.psd). Somehow, one of my photoshop elements projects was saved as a (.pse). I can't open it. How can I re open this file and continue working?
Thanks in Advance

A PSD is the standard working file for Photoshop.
A PSE is a project file for Photoshop Elements. These projects are multiple pages. If you are working with a PSE on Windows, there will be a folder along side your PSE that contains a PSD file for each page of the PSE. If you are missing this folder, you won't be able to open the file. The PSE file itself is just instructions on how to open the PSD files as pages of a project. On Mac, all of these files are wrapped up in a single container.

How do I open my raw files in photoshop elements 12 editor-..my files convert to jpegs

How do I open my raw files in photoshop elements 12 editor. I have a MacBook. I use the iPhoto and move the files I want to work on into elements, but it converts the raw files into jpeg files.
Thanks for your help!!!

Are you opening the image directly from iPhoto? Right click & choose Edit in >> Photoshop Elements Editor
This link is old but gives information on set up. It relates to PSE11 but the principle is the same. In iPhoto prefs you navigate to the editor application in the support files folder. Start from Finder by holding down the Alt (Optn key) and choosing Library.

Reconnecting missing files?

I have a new computer with Windows7 and PSE9. Because of the difficulty I had on my old PC with trying to reconnect missing files, I decided to start afresh on my new PC. So, I put all my images from Windows Explorer onto an External Hard Disk and brought them into the Organiser on my new PC from there. So far so good; not a single ? mark in sight. However, I was soon to be disillusioned because today, having assembled all my images into Albums, I was putting tags on them in one Album when, suddenly, yellow ?marks appeared on all the images in that Album. But, as I scrolled down the Album, by click and drag on the vertical slider, the ?marks disappeared line by line only to reappear as soon as I lifted my finger off the mouse. I most certainly had not moved or touched the images outside PSE because I went straight to the Organiser on booting up and never left it until coming to this Forum.
Looking back at previous posts on the forum I see the problem reappearing with monotonous regularity since 2005, with nobody seemingly to find a satisfactory answer. One really would have thought that Adobe could have found an answer by now!!
I wonder whether anybody has found an answer other than the painful use of the Reconnect command?

Hi Geeone2009,
Yellow question mark on top left of an image indicates that: that particular image is missing. The thumbnails you see in Organizer are just the 'shortcut' to the image. These are not your real images.
As you know whenever you move/rename a file, corresponding shortcut gets broken. Organizer does the same. Whenever you move/rename (or both) media outside Organizer (from OS), then Organizer losses the track of that media. Consequently it will show a yellow question mark on top left corner of image.
Your case is somewhat different from that mentioned above and the root to this problem lies with the handling of external hard drive (hdd) by windows OS. When you plugin a external hdd, Win OS recognizes it as an internal hard drive. As your media is on hdd so when you un-plug the hdd, the media (which was present on hdd) gets missing in EO (elements organizer). If you images were on a removable drive (flash drive)/CD/DVD/Network locations, and if you unplug the source then your images will get offline (a red color badge will appear on your images).
Now i will suggest the following steps-
1. Plug-in your hdd.
2. In EO select all images and click 'File->move'. Here give the location where you want to move (delete from hdd and copy it on system's internal hard drive).
In case you don't have enough space on your hdd, then you need to plugin your device whenever you want to do some editing.
Let me know if you have any queries.

Subject: cant open xmp files in photoshop element 8
An xmp file is not an image. Usually those are the files containing the settings used for raw conversion, any metadata keywords, and other data that PS/PSE can't write to the files themselves. If those really are all the files on your disc, contact the photographer, because it sounds like someone made a mistake.

When I try to backup my files from photoshop elements 12 the "calculating total media size" box will only get as far as 46% and then freeze, how can I make it go to 100%

hi barbara
thank you for your response, i appreciate it. there's definitely nothing wrong with the mouse or trackpad, both work fine in every other application....i can also easily change size dimensions in other programs on my computer so it doesn't seem to be that either. it seems like there is something weird going on in the way that pse and my mac are interacting with each other, just wish i knew what it was. thank you again, wish me luck!

Does PSA3 SE have Catalog Recover and Reconnect Missing Files

Hi Jim Jutte and Colin Walls,
I was looking at this thread over on the PS Elements forum where the submitter seems to have some problems where he thinks that some photo files did not transfer from PSA3 SE to PSE 5.
http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bc1dc66
I suggest that you also look at this thread. I don't have PSA3 SE to know what functions it does or does not have. If PSA3 SE does have Catalog Recover and Reconnect Missing Files, can he go back to his PSA3 SE Catalog now and do the Reconnect Missing Files and Catalog Recover, then retry the catalog upgrade again in PSE5?

Colin,
It's been a while since I'm used any bells and whistles in Access. What is
the function called?
Cheers

How can i export a 24bit avi file from photoshop for mac?

how can i export a 24bit avi file from photoshop for mac? i have a client that specificly needs the files to be avi and in 24bit what are the settings that i need to use to export the video using photoshop on a mac?

Hello,
To make a 24-bit AVI file in Photoshop, go to File>Export>Render Video. Then, under File Options, choose AVI from the Quicktime Export drop-down menu. Click the Settings button. Click the Settings button in the AVI Settings window. Change Compression to None, and then choose "Millions of Colors" from the Depth drop-down under Compression.
The Millions of Colors option is for 24-bit video (8-bit R+G+B channels, 8x3=24). Millions of Colors+ is for 32-bit video (24-bit video plus an 8-bit alpha channel).

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 plus I create PDF files for work some are scan pdf docs. When I install Photoshop Elements 10 it DOES convert all the PDF files to Photoshop Elements-10 Docs. it even changes and shows the PSE-10 Icon. So I am alway installing PSE-10 or uninstalling it. If I send the PDF file that has been automatically converted to a PSE-10 the person I send the file to can not open it because they do not have PSE-10. What can I do to stop PSE-10 from converting my PDF files? Don't tell me to upgrade PSE-10 I tried their on-line program and it is too advance for a hobby photographer like myself and their Help Desk is impossible to reach.

Can you please share the logs?

An attempt to open a pdf file with Photoshop Elements (version 12) resulted in a pop generated by the Photoshop Editor stated "Impossible to execute this operation (opening file) because one of the specified colour is not managed". Is there any mean to adapt the file to make its reading possible?
Did somebody get the same problem?

It is a high order probability that your SQL's report generator is creating the PDF, not Acrobat (which by design and EULA cannot be used in as/with server).
That the report generator outputs to an old-old version of PDF bears this out.
Wiki articles on PDF are very nice for those high level intro summaries.
To know / understand PDF you purchase and study the ISO Standard for PDF (ISO 32000-1:2008).
Rather than "PDF validation" you may want to consider addressing the appearent root cause of the problem(s).
You can change the email2fax application to one that can deal with older PDF versions.
You can change the report generator to one that can output to the ISO Standard.
(Perhaps the in-use application can be configured to output to the current version of PDF (i.e., the ISO Standard).
Be well...

If your program is Photoshop Elements (any version), you have posted in the wrong forum. Somehow your thread was posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
Please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.

Nothing has been converted. You first need to convince yourself of this.
Start Adobe Reader (or Adobe Acrobat, if you have it). Use Open from the File menu. Pick one of your PDF files. Does it open OK? If not, what happens?
Ok, these emails. What exactly happens when trying to open them?
