Subject Reorganising Photos on Photoshop Organiser (Elements 8)
Hi,
Can anyone explain how to reorganise photos downloaded so that they can appear in a different order in Organiser. The only way I have managed it so far is to rename each file name into the order which is required – this is such a time consuming and laborious approach to what should be a simple problem to overcome.

Create an album: you can move the photos in the album in any order.
Once the album is selected, you can select all and use file/rename based on a common name. This way your photos are easily renamed, so that they are ordered out of the album and even outside the organizer.
A word of caution : this works for me, but there has been problems with batch renaming. You might make a try saving the files in your album before renaming by exporting them to a temporary folder, just in case...
Edit : As a matter of fact, the renaming does not sort the images in correct order in the organizer outside the albums... they are sorted by date However they are sorted by name in the explorer.

Importing existing folders and sub folders of photos into photoshop organiser 9
I have over 10,000 photos nicely organised in folders and sub folders in Bridge CS3 and want to migrate over to photoshop elements and use their organiser so I have everything in one place. However, when I try to import the photos, it brings them in as individual photos and not in their folders. It seems like I need to recreate a load of albums and then drag and drop the photos into them. I don't have time to recreate hundreds of album names to replicate my system as it is. Is there any way round this or should I be looking at a different system altogether?
Thank you for any advice on this.... should I be looking at a different system altogether?
If your entire organizational goals are to continue to use your "nicely organised" folders, then why bother with the PSE Organizer in the first place? You have extra work (must import the photos) and more limitations (must do all photo management inside of the PSE Organizer), and its hard to see any benefit from using the PSE Organizer. You won't achieve any "better organization" than what you have now.
If your goals are to use PSE tools to organize (tags, captions notes), in addition to (or as a replacement for) your folder organization, then the PSE Organizer can be very useful. -

You should not see a dialog box in Lightroom when sending a raw file to Photoshop. The only time you should see a dialog with a raw file is when you don't have the same version of the Camera Raw plug-in in Photoshop to match the version of Lightroom installed.

Why can't I print a full page photo in Photoshop Elements 10???
Why can't I print a FULL PAGE PHOTO IN PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS VERSION 10, (letter size 8.5 x 11?) I have tried resizing, cropping and anything else I can possibly think of to no avail!!! VERSION 7 was so easy just print (fit to page)! I'am pulling my hair out trying to accomplish this! If anyone can tell me how to do it I would be eternally grateful! Thanks Julie
P.S. I can't even print a 8 x 10 properly!Sarah, my printer drivers are updated! This problem seems SO COMPLICATED when it should be so easy! It's like the more advanced these programs get the less you can figure them out!!!! I'am ready to offer a reward to fix this!!! The stress of trying to figure this out is making me crazy!

For some reason, my (Mac) Lightroom 5 won't recognise images in folders on my Mac that I've edited in either Photoshop Elements or Perfect Effects 8. If I've previously imported images from a specific folder, Lightroom will show these as greyed-out images (as normal) but will not show other images I've subsequently saved in that folder. Similarly, if I, say, select three images from Lightroom to use the Photomerge option in Elements, the subsequent saved image won't be recognised by Lightroom.
I've tried moving locations, saving in umpteen different formats etc., but the problem persists. No problem importing existing images from either SD card or old folders on the computer.
It's very frustrating!Ah-Ha! Right, think I've worked out the problem!
When I save a photo from Photoshop, I often place it on the desktop with a view to e-mailing it or posting it somewhere on the internet. I've just looked at the file that was supposedly saved as a .psd, but under "properties" it has no file extension. So I added the .psd and bingo, up it popped in the LR import window! I've since gone into Photoshop preferences & ticked it to add a file extension. That's really odd - I've never deselected that option but, hey ho, mystery solved.
Many thanks for your patience Mr Paige, I should have looked at this before. Put it down to advancing senility... -
I have Photoshop Elements 12 for both PC and Mac (I use both). I have a new camera, Nikon D810. I downloaded the latest version of Camera Raw, 8.8. My D810 is listed as a supported camera model. However, when I try to open a raw photo in Photoshop Elements, I keep getting the message "Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw. I have tried reinstalling Camera Raw many times, and have tried to open many different raw files in Elements, and still get the same error message. Please help.
How did you try to install ACR 8.8. The only way I know of that works with Elements is to use the Updates Choice on the Help menu.
There are two charts supplied by Adobe that explain your RAW dilemma. This one tells you what your camera needs: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html This one tells you what version of software you need: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
In your case, the Nikon D810 needs Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 8.6 or Lightroom 5.6. (Congratulations on buying a new camera!)
To get to that level with Photoshop Elements, you will need to replace your Photoshop Elements 12 with version 13. Adobe caps ACR updates on version 12 at 8.5.
The most convenient way to get around it without spending any money is to use the FREE from Adobe DNG Converter. Download and install it from here for FREE: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=5855&fileID=5890 Once it is installed you can convert your D810 raw files to an Adobe RAW version with the .DNG file extension that most, if not all, versions of the various Adobe software programs can use. That includes old versions of Photoshop, Elements and Lightroom. DNG converter can be used as the tool to move your files from your memory card to your computer, is efficient, will convert in batches and is completely lossless. There is no risk of any image quality degradation or RAW functionality. -
I got iPhoto '11, version 9.2.3 and want to edit photos using Photoshop elements 10. I have put P'shop 10 as the preferred editor... but when I click on the photo in iPhoto the Adobe p'shop 10 program opens BUT the picture does not open for editing. What the heck... I did fine with the old iPhoto and "Shop elements 6... .

How can I edit a photo in Photoshop Elements and have the edit appear in Windows 7, My Pictures?
In Windows XP Pro, any edit I made to a photo in Photoshop Elements 10 appeared automatically in that photo in My Pictures. This does not happen in my new Windows 7 computer. Can I change that and have the edit from PE10 appear in My Documents/My Pictures?
When you finish editing choose:
File >> Save As
Then choose a file name and folder and save. -
Photoshop and elements 13
Working in iPhoto
Want to edit image using photoshop elements
Did the following
IPhoto>Preferences>Advanced>Edit Photos: In drop down menu chose in Photoshop Elements
Also control click and chose edit in external editor
Drop down menu edit photos in external program>photoshop Elements
Go to to the image I'm working on --- selected the image, the clicked on edit. When nothing happened I double clicked the image. Still elements didn't open. Then I opened the Elements editor, went back to iphoto and tried the entire process again. the photo still didn't open on Elements 13 for editing.
I have 3 Elements 13 books as well as looked on line--all my references say the exact same thing ---- iPhoto>Preferences>advanced>edit in external program>photoshop Elements
I uninstalled and reinstalled both iPhoto as well as Elements.
I spoke with application technical support. There appears to be nothing wrong with my copy of iPhoto. However there is no support from Adobe. I waited for over 1.5 hours for chat support several days ago, and finally gave up.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:

Deleting a photo from Photoshop Elements 11 editor
I deleted a photo from Photoshop Elements 11 organizer. How do I delete it in Photoshop Editor?
Nothing is actually "in" the editor. It's just like most other programs you might use to open a file, not like organizer that's making a database of your photos. Just close it there, either from the image window or tab's close button, or by pressing ctrl+W (command+W on a mac).

Problem syncing photos with Photoshop Elements 5.0
I have a problem with syncing my photos using Photoshop Elements 5.0 to my AppleTV.
After marking I want to use elements it shows my catalogs.
But after syncing no photos are transferred to my AppleTV.
I do get a circle with an explanation mark behind my AppleTV in iTunes, but it doesn't give any further information.
The problem exists both when trying to sync all photos or selected catalogs from Elements.
When I sync from folders or my pictures the pictures arrive without problem on my ATV
Since I don't want all of my photos to be sent to my AppleTV, I would really like to use my Photoshop Elements.
Anybody any suggestions?
Thnx,
EgbertHello,
I'm seeing exactly the same described bahavior using iTune 7.4.3 and PhotoShop Elements 5.0. I tried at least 4 versions of ITunes with all the same behavior. It's fine to sync from MyPictures but not from PhotoShop Elements Collections and these are exactly the same pictures that both are pointing to so no format issues. Same behavior from iTunes, a warning sign appears next to the AppleTV but when I click on it it does not show any text to describe the issue ?
I doubt that the iTunes + Phitoshow elements 5.0 couple works at all ?
Can anybody help with this ? Maybe Apple ?
Regards

Removing duplicate photos in photoshop elements 4
is there a easy way to remove duplicate photos in Photoshop elements 4, i have over 20,000 photos but really only 5000-6000 and 3-4 duplicates of each and i think they have been renamed and haven't found a duplicate photo/file remover that will do it any suggestions

John,
I have PSE 4 on an old laptop so I took a quick look and my conclusion is no v4 does not have Suggest Photo Stacks.
Find with Visual Similarity is in v4 and I did do a Catalog > Recover with the build Similarity Index choice as preparation for using that Find feature. However using Visual Similarity on any signficant number of photos would seem very tedious. Of course it could be done systematically on a few photos each time over an extended number of days - but still tedious. -
Photos = Adobe Photoshop Elements (Win-XP) capability / restrictions?
a-TV supposedly can sync with Adobe Photoshop Elements on Windows for its photo library. Which Elements 5.0 features are supported and will show/play right via the a-TV, and which are restricted?
e.g.
- Can I create slideshows in Elements?
- Have the same photo in multiple slideshows?
- Use multiple tags per photo to group into slideshows?
- Use Elements Pan / Zoom / Text in slideshows?
I don't have Elements (use the MS suite), but would switch over for a-TV. Any bad experiences with Elements, particularly the photo Organizer tools?
ThanksI have Elements and consider myself a basic to intermediate user. I took all my 4k plus photos and put them into categories (ie, Christmas 2002, 2003, 1st Birthday, Trip to XYZ, etc). This took several hours but proved to be well worth it as the ATV picks these categories up. I do wish the ATV could let you see thumbnails of your folders in case I am looking for a particular picture but the categories is what I mainly use anyway. Now when I load pics from my camera to my pc I just immediately put them in a category or two. I'm not sure about slideshows as the categories accomplished the same thing. I think you can pick the same photo for multiple categories. Events does not seem to be recognized by ATV.
