Using Photoshop Elements 12 with SkyDrive files.

I have all of my photos in a picture file on my Microsoft SkyDrive. They are well organized and work well on my Desktop. I would like to be able to work on my laptop as well which has (by definition) they exact same pictures and structure. Is it possible to work that way?

Thanks for your reply 99jon.
Images are perfect in iPhoto, Preview, Aperture 3 and DPP. I got Photoshop Elements for two specific tasks that the other software doesn't do. Resizing and putting borders on files for printing and inverting images of copied negatives. I can still do this but I find that the edges are so jagged that it is hard to use Elements 12 for anything else. The text looks jagged / pixellated too not just the image.
If I take the image resized in Elements 12 and look at it in iPhoto it looks fine. So if Elements is not optimised for the Retina display am I stuck with how it looks? I start with large Raw files too. They get converted to .jpg to go to the printer.

I am learning to use Photoshop Elements with my recently downloaded Elements 13. I am disappointed that there is no longer a golden section grid option. Does anyone know if there is a way I can get this? Is there an upgrade to a more advanced photoshop

You might have a look at the affordable Elements+ add-on.
It has a script to enable guides with the golden ratio.

Using photoshop elements with aperture

I recently purchased and installed Aperture 1.5. I have yet to import my photos. I plan on keeping my photos on an external drive. The drive is shared with a windows laptop. I have about 5k of photos. Most of the time, the edits I make will only be colour correction and cropping, so Aperture will be the software of choice. For some photos I need to manipulate backgrounds, or cut out shapes, etc and drop them into other photos. I don't believe Aperture will do this.
So I'm wondering how to handle the photos I need to use Photoshop Elements 4.0 (Windows). Can I make the background changes, cut outs, etc. in Photoshop, save the changed image on the external harddrive and then import the reference to this image into Aperture?

It seem to me that you have two separate issues to deal with.
First, using PSE4 as editor. The whole power of Aperture is in its digital asset manager. In other words, if you edit files in PSE4, then it will need to be imported into Aperture (referenced or otherwise). While it can be stacked, it will be a separate file, whereas if a version is created within Ap, then it is not a separate master file. Nothing wrong with it as long as you know that, and are willing to live with multiple masters of the same image.
Second, sharing an external drive-based image with XP laptop. Clearly you will need to make your Ap library a referenced master library. This also means that you will have to back up the file separately from using Vault (Vault will backup your referenced previews and versions but not your master files). Do you have this connected and working now? If not, pay attention to the external disk format for compatibility issue. I have MBP and Dell desktop that shares an external drive.
All that said, did you consider creating a logical directory/folder structure on your external HDD and use the Organizer that comes with PSE/XP? It is a quite nice program and will allow for PSE editing in an integrated manner. Not sure what you are gaining by using Ap, other than stacking feature.

How can I use photoshop elements with photos

Title says it all. I would like to use Photoshop Elements to edit my photos--how do I open them in PSE?

Yes your edits will be there if you import the edited version. Yes it will go to the Cloud with the edits. What you read is that edits made in iPhoto and Aperture after the library has been migrated will not be available in Photos. But you could still export from iPhoto/Aperture to the Finder and then import to Photos, like with PSE.

Using Photoshop Elements with my iMac

I am not sure anyone here can help me or if I'm in the right category, but I couldn't find a category that seemed to fit my question. If you can redirect me I'd appreciate it.
I have recently installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0.1 onto my iMac. I want to be able to go further with my photo editing than iphoto can take me. It took me some time, but I finally figured out how to get my iphoto pics to open with photoshop. Now my problem is that I can not seem to get any of the editing to apply to a picture. I have been trying to apply the anti-alias to pictures to eliminate the harsh picture edges. I'm wanting to print these pics on quilt squares and don't want a box within a box. Using standard editing I have been able to select the area around the center picture for anti-aliasing. That shows up as a marque. But I can not then get anti-aliasing to apply so I can see how that affects my pics. If anyone here has any experience with photoshop elements I would really appreciate some tips.
Again, if anyone knows a better forum for my question, I would appreciate being redirected to that forum.
Thanks Im Advance For Any Help.

Thanks to everyone for your input. I have gone to the photoshop forums as well. I thought I might have better luck using the Mac forum because, I wasn't sure I would find anyone on the photoshop forum using a mac. I did get some pointers there but they have not worked either.
I know that I can only use certain tools to anti alias and have done that. I can check the box for anti alias, but nothing happens.
I think I may have to just use what I have and stop trying to edit them. The time constraints I am under are too narrow.
Thanks Again For All Help,

How do you overcome problems using Photoshop Elements with Win 7 and Eyefinity display?

I have a 3 screen Eyefinity setup on a PC running 64bit Win 7 with 16gb RAM and an AMD Radeon 7950 graphics card and Phenom II x4 processor.
I struggle to get a stable PSE10 to work on this setup.
I bought a combined set of Photoshop and Premier Elements 10 and although installed it always crashed when I saved images with the error message "Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 has stopped working". I recently did a fresh install of Windows 7 and decided I had to solve the Photoshop problem.
I installed Premier 64 bit version from disk 2 and Photoshop Elements from disk 1 and then ran compatability checker. Under compatability settings for Win XP srv pack 3 it starts although with some toolbar errors and top and bottom of screen transparent instead of solid. I can save files worked on but then still get the error when I exit Photoshop Elements.
Has anyone had similar and solved the problem? Tech Support said my s/w was too old and unsupported without a service contract.

There should be no need for compatibility mode; pse10 is designed to run on W7. Try making a direct shortcut for the Editor. You can then launch the program directly from the desktop bypassing the welcome screen. This is generally better as the welcome screen leaves background processes running.
Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
Then click the browse button and navigate to:
"C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
Then click Next; then click Finish
To launch, try right-clicking on the new desktop icon and choose “Run As Administrator” which often improves stability.

I am using Photoshop Elements 11. Do all .jpg formatted file have to be retangular in shape? I want to create an oval .jpg picture to insert into a book. Haven't been able to do so. It would work if I could make the area outside the oval completely transparent. Can anyone help me here?

JPG does not support transparency, so even if you create an oval with transparent background, the saved JPG will have white background. Instead, save it as a PNG, TIFF, or GIF which preserve the transparency.
Here is one of many ways to create your oval:
Create a new file the approximate size of the oval. Add the oval with the Custom Shape Ellipse tool, and simplify the shape layer.
In the Layers Palette, Ctrl-click the oval to select it and copy the selection to the clipboard (Edit > Copy).
Then do File > New from Clipboard. This creates the oval with transparent background cropped to the oval size.
Then save it as one of the file types that support transparency (and also supported by the application where you are sending the picture to).
Note: Is is not even necessary to do step 2. That is only if some reason you want the oval to be tightly cropped. It is sufficient to delete the Background layer in step 1 (or turn off its visibility) and save the file. The oval will appear correctly in the book with either version.

How can I edit a Nikon D7000 .nef file using Photoshop Element 8?

In order to read and edit a picture taken in RAW format by a Nikon D7000, using Photoshop Element 8, what should I do? Any plug in that I should download?

The D7000 was first supported in Adobe Camera Raw 6.3 which is compatible with Elements 9 or later
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
Either upgrade to Elements 12 or use the Adobe DNG converter to convert D7000 Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in Elements 8.

You need Adobe camera raw version 8.7. Unfortunately your software pre-dates the camera. ACR 8.7 is only compatible with PSE13. But it is possible to download and install the free DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.7
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.7
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:
You Tube click here for DNG Converter tutorial

Nikon D750 can you tell me when you launch a camera plug in for Raw file, Then I can use photoshop elements 13. I have now a trail version

can you tell me when you launch a camera plug in for Raw file, Then I can use photoshop elements 13. I have now a trail version

For that Nikon model you need ACR 8.3 that means CS6 or CC. Or you can download the DNG converter convert your Nikon RAW files to Adobe RAW files. And then process the Adobe RAW files with CS5 ACR version 6.7

First of all, use PSE9 on your old computer to make a full backup of your catalog and image files. Put this backup in a safe location, such as an external HDD, and don't mess with it. If something goes wrong, you'll need to restore your catalog from this backup to get back to where you started from. Let's call this backup "PSE9 Backup Golden".
Now the question becomes "Can PSE10 restore from a version 9 backup?". I don't know, so you have 3 options:
1. The "I feel lucky" option.
Use PSE9 on your old computer to make a new, full backup onto an external HDD. (Call this backup "PSE9 Backup New".)
Install PSE10 on your new computer.
Use the PSE10 Organizer to restore that "PSE9 Backup New" to your new computer, answering "Yes" to any prompt about converting the catalog to the new version.
2.
Use PSE9 on your old computer to make a new, full backup onto an external HDD. (Call this backup "PSE9 Backup New".)
Install PSE9 on your new computer.
Install PSE10 on you new computer.
Use PSE9 on your new computer to restore "PSE9 Backup New" to your new computer.
Open the restored PSE9 catalog in PSE10 and say "Yes" to the prompt about converting it to the new version.
3.

I have tested the first solution without any problem with different PSE6 catalogs, one of which with 32 000 pictures.

Is there a plug in yet to use photoshop elements 12 with nikon d750

I want to use Photoshop Elements 12 with my Nikon D750. Is there a raw plug in yet ?

No, and it is expected that PSE 12 will not get any further updates.
If you don't want to upgrade to PSE 13, you can download the free Adobe DNG converter. Use that to convert your NEF files to DNG files which can then be used by PSE 12.

Can i use Photoshop Elements to view .DWG files (Cad)

Does Photoshop Elements support .DWG files? Maybe with a plugin or similar.

No PSE does not support .DWG format
You can use the convertor http://www.fileguru.com/DWG-To-TIFF-Converter/info to convert DWG to TIFF and then use it in PSE.
