Unable to edit photos in Premiere Elements 11 [was: Setting up]

I have Elements 11 the Premiere and I cannot seem to be able to edit any of the photos. All that is available is to be able to brighten the colour or add a name or to crop. There are no tools whatsoever down the side and in fact I there are none shown. When I have brought up some of the photos all it seems to do is keep refering to videos and I want to edit photos.
I am very frustrated today.
Thanks.

I believe Premiere is for editing video, Photoshop Elements would be used for editing photos.

Have a look at your import setting specifically Store Files:
Make sure it is set to where you want the originals to go.
Message was edited by: Frank Caggiano - Don;t empty the system trash. The originals that you deleted from the Desktop are in there and are the only copies you have unless they are still in the camera.

Correcting blurred photos in premiere elements 11

I have checked several solutions to correcting blurred photos in premiere elements 11. Most of them turn out to be different versions and does not help me. I have had: in expert mode select photo, filter-other-high pass. I tried this and doesnt work. I believe if this is the way to correct blurred photos, I am missing a step somewhere. I have gone to enhance-adjust sharpness or unsharp. I must be doing something wrong. or can you correct blurred photo?

What is the situation - I do not really see the typical 720 x 480 resolution vs HD resolution type of question. I am seeing it as a photo editing (sharpening) question which may or may not be related to further use of these photos in Premiere Elements 11.
Which of the following is applicable to your situation..
a. You have great looking photos saved on the computer hard drive, but, after you import them into Premiere Elements, they look blurry on the Timeline and you want to try to correct that
or
b. You have great looking photos, but, after you import them into Premiere Elements and burn them to DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, the photos are blurry in the playback of the DVD-VIDEO with your TV's DV player
or
c. None of the above, rather you are trying to improve the sharpness of your photos in general using Photoshop Elements Full Editor/Filter Menu/Other/High Pass. If so, have you tried the Unsharp Mask under the Enhance Menu?
Consider the distinction between sharpening an image (contrast changes) and trying to correct a bad blur in the original.
From all that you have written, I suspect that this involves "c" and how to get the best results for sharpening an image in Photoshop Elements. If that is the case, you might seek input from the Photoshop Elements Forum here on that. Another possibility is that you may be creating pixelation in your images if you are up-sizing your images in the search for higher resolution and better quality.
Please give as much more detail to make sure that your question and its answer can be targeted correctly.
Please do not forget the follow up which is the key to success.
Thank you.

Adobe now hides the editor - what looks like it is not - you want the editor hidden in the support folder - see http://forums.adobe.com/message/3955558#3955558 for details

My Adobe Premiere Elements was working a little while ago -- nothing has changed on my PC -- now I get error 150:30

seadrift
What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what Windows computer are you running it?
The 150:30 error is probably indicative of a licensing problem.
How long has the problem existed?
If it persists, please check out the following Adobe document related to troubleshooting this type of matter...perhaps starting with
solution 2.
Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Windows
Please let us know if any of that worked for you.

Edited photos saved in Elements 12 only show up in elenents. Files cannot be found in Explorer

Edited photos saved in Elements 12 only show up in elenents. Files cannot be found in Windows 7 Explorer. I search fort he file name given in Elements and nothing is found?

Have you inadvertently saved the files in a hidden or system folder that Explorer is not searching? Or have you used unusual characters in the file name?
I use and highly recommend 'Search Everything' - once its done its initial index it is faster and more complete than Windows Search.

While in organizer window, I select edit photos and the elements workspace won,t open. Any solution

I am new to my recently installed elements 9-- I imported my photos from iphoto to the organizer--after I select a photo, and go to the fix section, I go to edit photos but the elements workspace won,t open, even though the timer dealy runs Any help?

If your Elements workspace is not loading then i think it is the problem with the Editor's preferences.
Try the following: http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshop-elements-faq.htm#_Delete_the_Editor%E2%80%99 s

I have been unable to email photo's from elements 9

Are you on Win 7 and see the email window freeze? In such case, please follow the link.
Also in case you are not finding Windows Mail listed (in PSE preferences) as a client in PSE then it might be because Windows mail is not configured on your system. First you would need to configure it and then it would show up in PSE Organizer Preferences>Sharing.

Unable to edit photos

After hard reset, I am unable to edit photos as the EDIT tab is no more. Opening user guide and clicking PHOTO EDITOR gives a message - UNABLE TO OPEN APPLICATION.
What has probably gone wrong?

Hi N8pairfail,
Thanks again for your feedback,
Please contact a Nokia Care Point to have them rewrite the phone software for you. Please use Nokia Suite to create a complete backup (through Tools/Backup) of your phone before you do though as this action will completely erase all content from your phone. When asked deselect the option to include settings in the backup.
You can restore the backup when you return from the Care Point after which you can also re-install your apps from Nokia Store. Your will find your paid apps here.
Hope this helps,
Kosh

The last few times I imported photos, the backup location was set to "documents" with no sub-folders. How do I get them into sub-folders - like year and month?

When I insert photos into Premiere Elements timeline they become pixilated. Has anyone a remedy?

The photos I insert into the timeline in Elements become pixilated. They looked fine in the organiser. Has anyone a remedy to this problem please?

Judie Sutton
Thanks for the additional information.
If rendering the Timeline content of those photos does not resolve the photo pixelation issue as per SG's question, then please read on.
a. Do you have a mixed Timeline of photos and video? If so, what is the format of the video and how many of these
2799 x 3500 photos are included? Do you get photo pixelation whether you have 1 or many of these photos on the Timeline?
b. What happens to the Edit area monitor view of one of these photos if you right click the Edit area monitor, select Playback Quality, and then compare the choices of Automatic vs Highest Quality? If you right click the Edit area monitor and select Magnification, do you find the Magnification set at the default "Fit"?
c. Have the photos been edited in Photoshop before being imported in Premiere Elements. If so, what was the extent of the Photoshop editing including effects applied and color profile?
More later depending on your results and follow up.
Thanks.

Autosize photo for Premiere Elements 12

I want to drag photos and videos into my Premiere Elements 12 movie timeline and then be able to autosize them so they fit properly in the movie. I've been using IMovies prior to Elements 12 and was able to do it there. Any thing like hat in Elements 12? Thanks

Topflightup
Thanks for the reply.
As I have said before, for automatic sizing of the import to the frame size/pixel aspect ratio of the project preset, you have a check mark next to Default Scale to Frame Size in Edit Menu/Preferences/General. With that preference in effect, the program will try to make the fit as best it can. If you are importing a 3:2 or 4:3 image into a 16:9 project, the best that the program can do is make the fit with black borders.
But....
In the Edit area monitor, you could then zoom into the image until the black borders are gone.
In the Edit area monitor, you could work with Default Scale to Frame Size disabled before import and then import the file and scale it to fit the Edit area monitor space which is defined by the project preset. The bottom line is that the program allows for one project preset, and, when you have content with different properties, then you set priorities and fit everything else into it.
It is often preferable to crop the image before import into a Premiere Elements project. The Photoshop Elements Editor crop tool is convenient for this, for example, crop to 1920 x 1080 16:9. But, this is a one by one operation. There are batch cropping/resizing programs, but often one crop setting for one photo is not always suitable for the view for each of the rest.
What are the pixels dimensions of your photos?
The easiest and quickest way might be to import as is (assuming your project project preset is appropriate for the prime source media) and then scale the photo in the Edit area monitor. Computer resources may or may not factor into the considerations on this...depends on how many photos, pixel dimensions of each, and the level of the computer resources. On a positive note, Premiere Elements 12/12.1 on Windows 8.1 64 bit is a 64 bit application which translates into better computer resources than otherwise.
Please let us know the details of these photos and then we will make additional comments if necessary.
Thank you.

Can you use more than one computer to edit the same Premiere Elements Project?

I am using Premiere Elements 10. I have built a new project on my desktop computer because the desktop has a firewire port to capture video from my camcorder and my laptop doesn't have a firewire port. The project is stored on my home network. I seem to be able to do editing fine using the desktop computer that the project was created on, but it won't load up right on the laptop for editing. Premiere Elements is configured the same on both computers. I guess my question is - does Premiere Elements store something on on the computer that the project was created on that is not being stored on the network drive? How can I fix the problem so that I can edit on my laptop? The laptop is a top of the line Dell XPS with an i7 processor that I use for other Premiere projects, so the laptops ability is not an issue.
Thanks
Bill

Yes, having files stored on a HDD, but having the letter change between machines is a problem. The Project file (PREL) is only an XML database, with links to the Assets. Those links are Absolute Paths, so if anything changes, from drive letter, to file name, the link is broken.
I have over a dozen externals, that I use to migrate Projects between my main two computers. Each has had its drive letter set in OS of each computer. I started with Z:\ and worked down. Each drive has a lable on it with the designated drive letter. Unfortunately, I ran out of letters, as the workstation has a ton of HDD's and burners, so I had to start over. That does mean that I cannot have both Z:\ drives plugged in at the same time, but that has never been an issue. I wish that Windows would allow for double drive letters, say ZZ:\, but still, I have a handful of letters to use - just too many externals for those letters...
Happy editing,
Hunt
