Trouble scanning with Photoshop elements 4.0, Software keeps quitting.

I'm using Photoshop elements as the scanner driver for my cannon flatbed scanner. I haven't used the scanner for a while. Now scans seem to take much longer and before I save, the program unexpectedly quits and I lose the images a waited forever to scan. At first I thought the problem was too little hard drive space, but the problem continues after freeing up more than enough space. I looked for software updates through the menu bar and didn't find any. Any suggestions?

Go to applications>Photoshop Elements 4.0>plug-ins>import/export and send the Adobe TWAIN driver to the trash (but don't empty it). If that helps and you don't have any trouble scanning, empty the trash.

Scanning with Photoshop Elements 12

I recently updgaded from Elements 9 to Elements 12, but the Import pick is greyed out in the File menue in 12. I can still scan in 9 and my everything has been upgraded for OSX 10.9 (Mavericks). Where exactly should the Twain plug in reside to make it work?

I did this and restarted the computer but still nothing. I tried 9 afterword and it still works, but no doubt added these deleted paths back. I'm stumped. Sorry for being a nuisance. I don't suppose it should be this hard. Jumping around and fixing this and then that makes it difficult to know if something is being missed or still needs to be done and then there is the possible issue of accomplishing all this in a certain order.

Imcompatibility issues with Photoshop Elements 4.0 Software Installation and Windows Version 7.0?

Does anyone have a solution so that I can begin using this software immediately? Assistance with this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Kalari12 Mylenium has a point that the software may simply not function as Windows 7 was not even in the beginning of development when Photoshop Elements 7 was created. You are welcome to post the exact error message you are receiving and I can check our knowledgbase.

Trouble scanning into Photoshop Elements 11 from Canoscan 8800F

Each time I scan several photos into Photoshop Elements 11 a few of the photos go to my selected file and one or more say they were not imported because they already exist in the APPData/Local/Temp/PSAlbumImport file. I then have to try to figure out how to get them transferred to my selected file. Why is this happening? It really slows down the scanning process and I'm sure this isn't how things are supposed to work.

I have not come across that problem. The only workaround I can suggest is to scan photos directly to a folder on you hard drive and then use the Organizer menu to import the images:
File >> Get Photos & Videos >> From Files & Folders

Can someone please help me with scanning with Photoshop elements 13?

I have been scanning pictures with no problem with Elements 13 but all the sudden any picture I try to scan it tells me "Nothing imported File or Folder to import did not contain any supported file type or file already exists in catalog." I know these pictures do not already exist because they are new to me. What do I need to do to correct this?

you won't be able to use cs5 unless you can show you own a qualifying product.
you show you own a qualifying product by either installing that product (before installing cs5), or supplying the serial number when prompted.
if you purchased or registered your qualifying product with adobe, they may be able to help recover your serial number. contact adobe support by clicking this link and then clicking 'still need help' as soon as it appears, https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html

Is scanning with Photoshop Elements 13 and windows 8.1 the most ignorant thing on the planet?

Using WIA and its moronic default settings is like going back to being a caveman.

Please try out the instructions mentioned on page:

and see if it helps.

IPhone 2.0 software now compatible with Photoshop Elements 6?

While the current software is compatible with earlier versions of Photoshop Elements, it is not compatible with Elements 6 since Abobe changed their database (nor longer using Access). I notice that the specs on iPhone 3G say compatible with Photoshop Elements.
Can anyone confirm that means Elements 6?

However, to be fair, while there may be savings to be had, your company would have to replace existing phones with iPhones and tie everyone into one carrier (which accross a multi-office environment may not be practical, due to coverage issues). The iPhone does not offer the level of encryption available to a Blackberry/RIM handset, or the ability to enforce security policies on handsets, which may be a concern to your IT and Security people. It also misses some useful features (such as searching email for words/phrases. This is a feature I use regularly on my Blackberry, and I'm disappointed to not find it on my iPhone. ). And there is the whole, One Vendor issue that may worry some (you can connect non-RIM, e.g. Nokia, etc, phones to your BES providing the phone supports the required blackberry software).
I've got to say, as much as I love my iPhone (and I'm personally migrating from my blackberry to it) I don't think I'd recommend it as an enterprise phone.... yet... It's still got a way to go. As a personal+business phone, I'm giving it a shot (as the personal side is quite good). My current employer is a small company, with no BES, so I use my carrier's BIS, and get by with it. As such, the calendar+contacts sync available through mobileMe is a plus . If I was planning IT direction for a larger organisation though, I'd be considering the iPhone (if for no other reason than an excuse to play with one ), but I wouldn't be preparing a migration just yet!

I bought a canon EOS Rebel T5i. It came with photoshop elements 11. PS won't open my C2 raw files and says my camera isn't supported by the software I have downloaded 7.4 dng converter and I still can't open the files. What do I need to do?

You need camera raw 8.4 for your camera, if it’s Digital Rebel T5 EOS 1200D EOS Kiss X70. It is not compatible with PSE11; so it’s a bit odd if that software was bundled with the camera except that it will work with jpegs. I suggest you download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will editable in PSE11(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.4
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

I am encountering crashes with Photoshop Elements 12. If I uninstall and then reinstall the software, will I jeopardize the 100s of photo images I have already moved into the Organizer? Any cautions for me

I am encountering crashes with Photoshop Elements 12. If I uninstall and then reinstall the software, will I jeopardize the 100s of photo images I have already moved into the Organizer? Any cautions for me?

If the app is designed correctly, the no, you won't. However, you'd have to ask the people who wrote the software, Adobe.

Trouble with Photoshop Elements 8

Every time that I print a photo using Photoshop Elements 8, the photo show vertical lines and the colors are awful. I cannot print a photo using Photoshop Elements 8. I checked the printer and has no any problem. I print all my photos using Windows Photo Viewer. I have no idea what's happening with Photoshop Elements 8. Can anybody help me with this problem?
Thanking you in advance for any help.

Celentano I am sorry but what is the exact error you are receiving when trying to install Photoshop Elements 8? Also which operating system are you installing it on?

What a disgrace Adobe with Photoshop Elements 13

I brought Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 trusting the garbage Adobe went on about it only to find you go and install it and it won't get pass Payloads Adobe Elements 13 Organizer it just fails as a small business I ended up trying to install it on 4 different computer using Windows 8 and 8.1 64 bit and nope the same thing happens I even trying installing the 32 bit program same thing you can not get pass Payloads Adobe Elements 13 Organizer as far as customer support it appears there is none you can't contact anyone at Adobe to get you money back they just don't care. I have gone back to using my old version Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 it works and no issues. I recommend no one buys Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 until Adobe fixes the issues and most of all provide the customers proper support. I wont my money back for a software program that is useless and I can't use. They say you have 90 days from time of purchase to request a refund well what a pack of lies that is as you CAN NOT GET ONTO ANYONE AT ADOBE if you do get on to some one they will tell you your 90 days has expired this is that they think of there customers world wide.
I'd rate Adobe 0 = for the program and I'd rate their customer service 0 and never buy another product from them.

I agree with you about the lack of customer support. I was able to install it with no problems but when I wanted to print to one of my printers I had a lot of problems. I can only print to one of the printers and it won't print correctly. I contacted Support and chatted with one of the people. I was told that only the forums take care of Photoshop Elements. I also wish that I had stayed with Photoshop Elements 11. After installing 13 the printer issues are in my photoshop elements 11 program. I certainly would not recommend anyone purchasing an Adobe product because of the lack of support.

Love / Hate Relationship with Photoshop Elements

I am having a love/hate relationship with Photoshop Elements! Love the page design capabilities and hate the lack of capability on the print end. Kodak does not give any choice in the book they will print from Elements. All I can get is a #$%& die cut cover! Is there anyway that I can order other options that I know Kodak has available when creating a book using Elements and their site. I want to be able to choose a custom cover! I have tried Kodak to get answers. I have tried Adobe (impossible, unless maybe you pay). Neither are very helpful! The only answers I get are use the Elements designed pages and place them onto pages that you create in their software. Problem is that one needs a jpeg file to do this. No online program seems to recognize .PSD or .PSE file types. HELP!
Bob, Barbara you both seem to be very knowledgable...any ideas...
Anyone with any help can answer here or [email protected]
Terry

Terry:
Yeah, the photobook print options are limited. (Although, the built in Kodak and Shutterfly books are very nice)
One thing to try differently is to use the Print At Home selection on that first screen after the clicking on the PhotoBook option (assuming you are using PSE8 here) (use Photo Collage with PSE7)
Down that path, you will get a few more choices in page size. It will still create a multi-page document (a .pse) while your building your book, and when done, you can print the pages of the book out as a .pdf. Many book printing services will take in a PDF.
Another option is to do a single page at a time and save them as .jpg's. A little more work in keeping your various files together and ordered properly, but it would give you ultimate flexibility.

Am I permitted to upload illustrations made with Photoshop Elements to my blog

Am I permitted to upload illustrations made with Photoshop Elements (received in a pack with a Bamboo tablet) to my blog providing I do not make a profit from them? This is purely to share my illustrations with the online community and no profit whatsoever will be made.

Luis,
That's an entirely unhelpful response.
1. The computers in question are not "privately owned".
2a. The software licensed on those computers is licensed to someone else.
2b. The software would actually be licensed under an "educational institution" license not the "student" license.
I'm asking here because its very likely that my teachers wouldn't know and it would probably take the IT department quite a while to tell me - It'd be more than likely faster to read the legals myself, if I was able to find them.
I'm hoping that someone who knows the specifics can inform me.
Daniel.

Help with Photoshop Elements, I'm new to it?

So I'm just fiddling around with Photoshop Elements, and I have a picture of a crocodile that I'm trying to turn blue, so I'm using the Smart Brush and Blue Sky effect to change his skin colour.
Firstly, is there an easier way to change the colour of something that I'm missing?
Secondly, how do I control the Smart Brush precisely? The thing is his body is about the same colour as the water so when the brush gets to a certain point the entire image turns blue.
So how do I select the crocodile but not the water?
Thirdly, the brush. I can draw with the brush, but then I get the "wait" symbol and my changes vanish. How do I stop this?
Thanks for replies, and I'm sorry for my noobishness, I just got Photoshop Elements yesterday.

You can make the brush cursor larger & smaller with the bracket keys next to the letter p on the keyboard. This affords more control in making the selection.
Use of the Smart brush tool is probably the easiest way to colorize an object. The tool has a buit-in mask. If you look on the Layers palette (Window>tick layer), the black and white rectangle represents the mask.
Left click on the mask, then access the brush tool (the ordinary brush B) and with a black brush paint over the area where the blue spilled over to the water. If you go too far, paint with a white brush to correct.

Be grateful for your help with Photoshop Elements which I have been using for several years.

Be grateful for your help with Photoshop Elements which I have been using for several years. Does Elements need to have access to ‘My Pictures’ on Windows as when I remove Photos from ‘My Pictures’, Elements later, when backing up, gives a message that it is unable to ‘reconnect’ to the same picture on elements. On other occasions when removing a photo from Elements catalogue I also get a similar message when backing up saying ‘unable to reconnect’. 1. Is there a relationship between Elements and My Pictures and is Elements dependant on the Windows ‘My Pictures’? 2. Why does some photos in Elements in some cases cause them to multiply e.g. double; triple; quadruple; and on occasions even more? Is there something I need to do to stop this or an easy way I can remove the multiples without spending hours doing it manually one by one? Am I doing something wrong? My O/S is Windows XP SP2 and windows Vista on my Laptop. I have been using Elements 5 and have just purchased Photoshop Elements 8.0. (Upgrade) and about to install it. Be grateful for any advice as I do enjoy using the program if only I can resolve this issue. I am not a PC wiz and mainly use Elements to catalogue photos from which I compile collections and from them slide shows with music. Any advice appreciated Sonny.t PS Have tried to post this previously but without success so hoping to see message appear and a +response

The organizer doesn't care where you send your photos when you download them via the downloader or where they happen to be when you first bring them in if you use the Get Photos command, but once your pics are in the Organizer, you *must* move them from within organizer or it can't find them. You don't have to use My Pictures at all if you don't want to, but regardless of the folder where you put your photos, if you want them someplace else, you use organizer to do it.
