Using Photoshop elements 9 with two monitors

I used Photel 6 with no problem on my Macbook Pro + Lacie 324 monitor, and used to slide the photo on the LaCie and keep the tools on the Macbook Pro screen.
I just installed Photel 9 and I cannot do that anymore. Does anyone know why and tell me how to do it please ?

First all, please don't write in all caps.  Dificult to read and very rude, it's like shouting.
Secondly, you're in the wrong forum.  You want the Elements forum:

  • How can one use Mission Control with two monitors?  Please bring Spaces back

    How can one use Mission Control with two monitors.  With Spaces I could treat each space as a single desktop.

    I use two monitors at work and have no issue. I have my mail set to use Desktop 1 and iTunes set to the second monitor of Desktop 1. I have browsers set to Desktop 2 and Fusion and RDC set to Desktop 3.
    Two things that may help you. In System Preferences > Mission Control, disable the setting "Automatically rearrange spaces...". This screwed with assigning applications to certain spaces. And the other thing is don't use full screen on apps that support it. This just makes your second monitor superfluous.

    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 or a plug in that has it as an option?

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

  • Splitting "parts" of Photoshop Elements on two monitors

    I have two monitors, and would like to set up the following configuration: One monitor for full-screen editing of images, and one screen for the GUI’s menus, buttons and tools. I have read a suggestion of moving each individual “panel” over to the secondary monitor one at a time, but is there a way to move the image being edited to the secondary screen instead? Moving every panel each time seems too time-consuming to be the practical way to solve this.
    I’m using Photoshop Elements 10 on Windows 7.

      Try moving the edit window but first re-set your prefs.
    Go to Edit à Preferences à General
    Then choose Allow Floating Documents in Full Edit Mode.
     

  • 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?
    mac mini    

    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.
    Kaye

    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.

  • Using fullscreen applications with two monitors

    I have an external monitor connected to my macbook via VGA and the mini-DVI adapter. I often use the second monitor to play video files, while using my macbook display for other work. My problem is that whenever I try to run an application in fullscreen mode on either monitor, the other monitor goes black and is unusable. I've searched these forums and the internet in general, but have been unable to find any kind of solution to this. If anyone knows how to remedy this, please help.

    Haha. Found the answer to my own question. There's an option in VLC to disable black screens during fullscreen. Guess I must have missed it.

  • Every time I click on photoshop edit I get a message that the program has crashed. I' ve been using photoshop elements for two years and nothing on my computer has changed. My software was downloaded and I have no disk.

    WHat can I do to make the program work as it has before?

    Very Important, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive first of all? Click on the Macintosh HD on the Desktop, then do a Get Info on it.
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    Do they launch OK while in Safe Mode?

    Problem with two monitors while using Photoshop, windows move from 2nd screen to 1st screen.
    I saved a new workspace and it did not help.
    No problem before I went to Maverick.

    I found the fix, go to System Preferences and open Mission Control and uncheck the box to keep monitors as they were (When switching to an application...........)

  • 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.

    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.
    Install PSE10 on your old computer.
    Open the PSE9 catalog in PSE10 and say "Yes" to the prompt about converting it to the new version.
    Use PSE10 to backup the converted catalog to an external HDD.
    Install PSE10 on your new computer.
    Use PSE10 on your new computer to restore that converted catalog to your new computer.
