Using photoshop elements 13 but the option to crop a single image is grayed out and also the option to crop a scanned image into individual pictures is grayed out - any ideas?

The option to crop an image is always grayed out or unavailable - both for single images and when I want to crop scanned images into individual pictures. Any idea what I may be doing wrong?

Did you try using the crop tool to see if it is working?  See the tool I am talking about.
I suspect you are in Guided Mode rather than in Quick Mode or Expert Mode.

    If you never bought the product then you cannot get the serial number.

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

  • I use Photoshop Elements 11 to print panoramas. Works for jpeg images but not tiff. Suggestions?

    I use Photoshop Elements 11 to print panoramas. It works for jpeg images but not for tiff images. Seems strange because PSE11 manages tiff images in all other processes. Anyone fared better?

    Thank you for your trouble.
    My images are not usually layered and the particular case I am about to quote, it is not. The dimensions are 10,546 x 2,790 and the image has 16.7 mbs. I use 8 bit colour. When I set up the print screens for tiff, everything is normal until I get to the last screen with the image set upon the photo paper. Then the paper size indicated with the image refuses to budge from the A4 size, so the panorama gets printed on that. I consulted the Adobe chat line and the expert could 't get it to work either. So he came to the conclusion that the tiff capability had not been extended to printing panoramas. In seeking advice, I thought someone might refer me to an updating patch!
    Well done! You have confounded the system!  I could not find any control that would override the setting.

  • I purchased and downloaded Photoshop Elements 13, but the installer fails to initialise. How do I get it to work?

    I have Photoshop Elements 10 and Premier Elements 10 installed on my PC. Both were installed from discs that I bought a few years ago. I recently purchased the upgrade (by download) for both applications to version 13. In accordance with the (scant) instructions received by email, I downloaded the four files required from the Adobe site. I subsequently ran the .exe files, which in turn created directories on my PC, including set-up.exe files for both applications. When I run the setup files, I get an error message stating that the installer failed to initialise. The error message advised me to download the Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem. That tool does not exist. I then sought assistance from the Abobe support site, initially using the hyperlink suggestions, which were of no use, then using the chat function. The operator kept trying to get me to do something with something called 'Creative Cloud'; which I am not familiar with, and do not use. He then instructed me to download and run a CS5 cleaner tool; however, none of the choices offered by that tool include my issue, or either Photoshop Elements or Premier Elements. I am reluctant to uninstall version 10 of the programs in case I end up losing the lot and therefore wasting even more money than the purchase price for this upgrade.
    All I want to do is upgrade my two applications from version 10 to version 13. I have paid the requisite fee but it clearly does not work. I appear to have totally wasted my money. Can anyone please tell me how to get it to work? I do not want to have anything to do with the so-called ‘Creative Cloud’ as I have no idea what it is, and I do not want to lose what I already have (and have paid for previously).
    I have tried for a few days to access the so-called 24/7 chat assistance but appeared to have been locked out as every time I try to access it, I get a message that the (24/7) chat is closed. Adobe has taken my money for a product that does not work, and also refuse to help me fix it.
    I am very frustrated with a product I bought that does not work, and a 24/7 support service that clearly is not 24/7, and which refuses to assist me. Can anyone PLEASE tell me how to get this to work? Rod.

    Hi,

  • Can I print a contact sheet that includes the caption for each photo using Photoshop Elements 13 for Mac. I previously used Photoshop Elements 6 for the PC and could do this.

    I just switched to a Mac and installed Photoshop Elements 13. I previously worked with many years with Photoshop Elements 6 on a PC where I used the contact sheet function -- with each's photo's caption included -- to print print a collection of 400+ member photos for a club I belong to. This worked beautifully. I assumed I'd still have this ability with my new software, but can't figure out how to do it. Help.

    Try using psd.  Some rerports indicate some confustion between the apps with TIFF.  See:

    I cannot confirm, nor test, since I use PS CS5, and not Elements.

  • Viewing an iphoto image  'saved as' using photoshop element

    How do i get iPhoto to display an image that was changed in Photoshop Elements and 'saved as' back into the original iPhoto library folder?
    The Finder displays the original and changed image files listed in the iPhoto Library folder. However, the iPhoto application will not display the image.

    Thanks for the response.
    Using Photoshop Elements, I changed the original image and saved it with a new name. Both the original and the changed image show a .jpg file exension in the iPhoto folder.
    The iPhoto application does not display the new image. It just seems not to exist unless you use Finder.

  • How can I save a picture in Photoshop Elements that was emailed to me using Photoshop Elements?

    How can I save a picture in Photoshop Elements that was emailed to me using Photoshop Elements?

    Save the attachment in a folder.
    From the Organizer menu choose:
    File >> Get Photos & Videos >> From Files & Folders
    Navigate to your image and click Open.
      If the photo is embedded, make a copy or screen grab and then whilst it’s still held in memory open the Elements Editor.
    From the menu click:
    File >> New >> Image from clipboard
    Then use File >> Save As
    Then choose jpeg.

  • Is it possible to use Aperture to make a new image from two existing ones--ie, in a new jpg? I essentially want to create a collage that I can then print as a single image, rather than in a book. Any advice will be most welcome!

    The main point is that Aperture is used to make digital negatives as good as they can be (for the uses you define), but it does not ADD date to your digital negatives, nor does it produce NEW combination files.  For those tasks you need a Graphics program.

    It relates to Elements 10, but it's the same for 11.

  • I'm trying to use the quick selection tool in Photoshop Elements 12 but it keeps getting stuck on minus.  How do I fix this?

    I'm trying to use the quick selection tool in Photoshop Elements 12 but it keeps getting stuck on minus.  I've reinstalled twice and it will work for a little while and then get stuck again.  When I select something, I have one shot at it and as soon as I let go of the mouse it switches to minus and I can't add anything else.  How do I fix this?

    When a tool misbehaves, go over to the far upper right corner of the tool options area and click the four-lined square. Choose Reset Tool from the popout menu.
