Elements 8: why my files open at 72 dpi and how can I change it?

My files all open them at 72 dpi, which causes important problems of resizing. How can I change this?

It shouldn't cause any problems at all. When you take a picture, your camera doesn't know anything ppi; It includes only the dimensions of the pixels. PPI is unimportant, until you are ready to print. When you want to the top of the ppi, just go toImage > resize > Image size and change what you want to with resampling turned off.

Some manufacturers to put a frame of reference for the ppi in the exif data for the image - canon uses for example, 180 for some of their devices, but if there is nothing that PSE can understand, use 72 dpi by default. It is not really important. What is important is that you have enough pixels in the photo. Do not turn the resampling and you will keep the same number of pixels when you up the resolution, so you will get a good impression.
