• Photoshop elements 10 Installation Question

  How will I know if my software installed correctly? The software supplied with three discs and installed only the first disc. I'm new to Photoshop and do not know if my software installed correctly? Can anyone help?

  Hi JimG,

  You won't lose all the features if you install the 64-bit version.

  The advantage of using a 64-bit application, is that it can use optimal resources system better than the 32-bit version.

  In addition, you don't have any problems with the registration. Since you are already registered, you can enter your existing Adobe ID and password when prompted for it during installation.

  Thank you

• Photoshop elements 13 text questions

  Text is incoherent and not true to size of number.

  Entering text in a series of photos, any single font size is not the same when written on each photo.  For example on a size 18 photo looks like text size 4, on another size 18 looks like 18 and another looks like 72.

  Help, please.  I need suggestions.  Thank you

  This behavior is related to the resolution of the photo files.

  Open your photo files and go to Image > resize > Image size. You can read the resolution in px / in. I suspect that the resolution varies between your set of photos.

• Restoration of the catalogs on a new computer and the version of Photoshop Elements

  I have Photoshop Elements 8 and first Elements 8 installed on my computer. The operating system is Windows 7 64-bit.

  I have a problem not solved with print JPEG images in Photoshop Elements 8. If I do not adjust the date in the file image before I print crashes of Photoshop Element. I have no problem with Premiere Elements. I have no problem printing JPEG images, which is open a RAW Edition. No time adjustment is necessary in this case.

  This isn't a question about the printing problem on which I gave a solution. However, thanks to all that gave some ideas, however.

  I tried everything, including asking for help on the forum of Adobe, but without success. I decided on a drastic measure. I'll remove Photoshop Elements 8 from my computer, but not first Elements 8 and delete all images in photo of the computer also. I backed everything up. I hope that should leave me with a computer on which no trace of Photoshop Elements 8 or my photos. Then I'll install 10 items and restore my catalogues from my backup. I hope that let the printing problem.

  Here's my question.

  When I restore my Photoshop Elements 10 catalogs this procedure will restore not only my images, but also my albums and tags etc that I had created in version 8?

  Thanks to all those who can help you.

  Make sure you use PSE8 backup function to save your photos and catalog.

  This Adobe document explains how to manually remove PSE8:

  http://kb2.Adobe.com/CPS/826/cpsid_82673.html

  When you reach the point of having PSE10 to restore from your backup, you will have the opportunity to tell PSE where to put the pictures in incoming.  You will also see your albums & tags, because they are stored in the catalog (database) which is restored.

• Photoshop elements 14.1 (Windows 10) crashes after importing multimedia files in a catalog to convert

  In addition to 12.1 PSE, I installed PES 14.1 and converted to catalog.pse12db catalog.pse14db without any error message.

  Import... Download the pop media button to the top of the "Coppying - XX % Completed" progress window, which evacuated then at 100% and PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe crashes.

  Kill PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe with the Task Manager and go to PSE14 show media files had nevertheless imported free of errors.

  Adobe Photoshop elements 14.1 reinstalling does not fix the problem.

  Open a new catalog and importing multimedia files in this new catalog.pse14db runs without error.

  Catalog.pse14db contains the beginning marked more 6000 photos with Photoshop elements 3 (on my old PC with Windows 2000) and thus has been transformed several times during its history. The volume_table table includes readers/devices from the old PC, which do not exist in PCs today.

  Although I'm not familiar with SQLite, using sqlite manager (add-on Firefox) help solve my problem (if it's really a question of catalog.pse14db)?

  Any ideas for me?

  Thank you!

  Michel,

  I took a break.

  Apart from that, I'm at a loss what to try next...

  A few days before Pentecost, I resumed outages by install the trial version of Photoshop elements 13, conversion of catalog.pse12db into catalog.pse13db, from Photoshop elements 14.1 and transform this catalog.pse14db catalog.pse13db.

  He has no problem now to import media files in this converted catalog.pse14db. I will continue using PSE14.1 with the converted catalog whatching to find errors.

  I wonder why the repair function on the Catalog Manager solves this problem, and what will be the opinion of the team of Adobe.

  BTW

  Import media files offer 'Get media' or 'Open' - what is the difference?

  Kind regards

• Convert Adobe Photoshop Album catalog in Photoshop Elements 13

  Hello community!

  I searched Google this question, but I have not found a response that helped me.

  The old computer of my client with Windows XP operating system is getting replaced by a new one with Windows 7.

  There is Adobe Photoshop Album on the former, which is no longer supported. My client has had more than 15'000 images on his old PC I have already copied on the new computer. Now, he wants his albums, tags and stuff from Adobe Photoshop Album, so I decided to install Photoshop elements 13 because of the elements Organizer tool.

  Now that I've seen answers in the forums that sayed that all these information is saved in the catalog file "My Albums.psa", I already found on the old computer and copied to the new. Some people sayed that would work with the option "convert" to post-secondary studies, but it does not work for me, because the PSE does not see the .psa file. So, I tried to convert my file .psa with this tool, but in the middle of the State, he said that he failed and that I should try to fix the EPS file. I'm now stuck here, with several different solutions, and yet I don't know what to do now.

  I read something about the structure of folders and images and records should be on the disk hard when you try to convert the .psa file. All the photos are on the new computer, but of course records are not the same on the new OS.

  He would be happy if I find a solution as soon as possible of a person in the community.

  Thank you and have a nice day!

  Here is the link explaining the backup/restore process.

  When the backup is completed successfully, you get a backup folder in which you have a renamed copy of all the files in your photo and your catalog, as well as a file named backup.tly.

  The restore process, initiated from the new computer will allow you to choose the location where you want to restore your photo folders tree. Normally, the restoration is automatically followed by a conversion of the old catalog to the new format. In your case, you will need to use the conversion utility to resolve the issue of 64-bit.

  If the backup is ok you should retrieve all your information tagging and folder organization. In your case I would choose restore to a new master folder and delete the copies that you did when you are sure that everything is ok.

• Lightroom does not update Photoshop Elements catalog

  I tried to post this question before, but maybe I put it in the wrong place. In all cases:

  I have two catalogs Photoshop elements 11 (PSE). When I switched to Lightroom, I was able to update one of these catalogues with only minor hiccups. Lightroom searched my records and found the catalog by itself.

  Now, I want to upgrade the second. I need to keep separate the first catalogue. However, when I try to upgrade the second catalog I can't access it. Lightroom displays the catalog already modernized PSE but provides no way to access the second for selection.

  The user guide says that I can choose any PSE catalog for the upgrade, but appears not to be the case.

  Any suggestions?

  Never mind. I just thought of it. Lightroom will find other catalogs only if they are the last catalogue used with PSE. I just went to PSE, load of the catalog, I wanted to update and closed PSE. Then I relaunched Lightroom and do a file > catalog Upgrade PES and this time Lightroom found.

• How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

  Keep all the files on external hard drive image?  Nothing else and no pictures on the desktop?

  Keep all image files both places?

  What is the best way to go through thousands of images in the Organizer to identify and place them in files?

  Once I've placed a file, I just leave it in the entire catalog or a way indicate to me that it has been sorted?

  As overwhelming, any tips/shortcuts/schemes, you can offer are welcome!

  As I only have the version of the EP, here is some info on the organiser:

  https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop-elements/how-to/use-elements-Organizer.html

  Independent of how this feature works, you want to have your photos in one place and have a backup (second copy) somewhere else. All hard drives will not be successful at some point - some more early, some late - never trust to have your files in any safety devices if they are on a single disc. Once you have your sorted, it would be useful that you will organize/name/tag new photos immediately if the task is relatively short and simple. I copy my photos on my internal hard drive for my camera, take a quick look with preview to see who needs some changes and then decide where to put them - either drop them immediately after naming them or bring in an editing application and then file them away.

• Catalog in Photoshop elements 11 to 14 update

  I am running windows 10 and 11 Photoshop elements.  Recently, I had to reinstall the operating system.  I thought I had my catalog in a secure location on a different drive, but I guess it was on the main drive that has been wiped out.  After you have reinstalled Windows 10, I decided it was the right time to upgrade to Photoshop elements 14.  After the installation of 14, I found that it lacked the catalog file.  I still have all the pictures, but not the catalog that has the tag.  I tried to do a restore in 14 from a complete backup of Photoshop Elements I've done with version 11.  The backup could not find a *.tly file in the backup directory.  I also tried a restore with version 11, but it is also a .tly file.

  The complete backup folder has what appears to be a copy of everything in my catalog.  There is even a file named catalog.buc.

  Does anyone know a way I can recover my catalog file?

  Thanks for any help you can offer.

  In short, your files are still where they were on the same computer (no change for the reader) and you have a backup without a "backup.tly" file folder If this file is missing, which means that the backup was not successful; the .tly file is the last created when everything is saved in the backup folder, and the best way to verify that a backup is good is to check the presence of this file. Without it, the normal restore process is impossible.

  Since you have a "catalog.buc" of PSE11, this file is a copy renamed your database file 'catalog.pse11db '.

  Create a folder somewhere, like "my catalog restored", place a copy of the catalog.buc and rename it to catalog.pse11db.

  PSE14, try the button "convert" in Catalog Manager after having sailed to the new folder.

  No guarantee that it will work, but it's quick and easy to try.

  Get you most of your tagging, but not face recognition or some other features.

• Is it possible to import a Photoshop Elements 3.0 version catalog in Photoshop Lightroom?

  Is it possible to import a Photoshop Elements 3.0 version catalog in Photoshop Lightroom?

  PSE 3 uses a different database to the current SQLite. Your version will host a Microsoft Access database, which is stored in a file called for example MyCatalog.psa.

  You can download the trial version of PSE14 and try to convert your catalog to the current format during the installation. If successful, that should give you an optimized file named for example MyCatalog.pse14db. You can then import into Lightroom. See the link below for more information on the differences in catalog:

• Adobe first Elements 13 is listed as $79.99 (alone) or WITH Adobe Photoshop elements 13 for $119.99 (for both). I bought 13 items first by itself for $79.99.   Now, I realize that I need the 13 elements of Photoshop also.     My question I

  This is my first attempt in the Adobe community. I hope I'm doing this correctly.

  Please send me an email to [email protected] If you can answer my question.

  I'll paste it again here. Thank you! John

  QUESTION:

  Adobe first Elements 13 is listed as $79.99 (alone) or WITH Adobe Photoshop elements 13 for $119.99 (for both). I bought 13 items first by itself for $79.99.   Now, I realize that I need the 13 elements of Photoshop also.

  My question is: can I put the $40 more (purchase price of $119.99 in combination) to buy the 13 elements of Photoshop? Or do I have to pay the price of $79.99 (yet) to buy the 13 elements of Photoshop?

  There is no option to upgrade on the website of the $40 more purchase price (which would be equivalent to the original price of combination $119.99) after I bought the first 13 items only ($79.99).

  This isn't Adobe. Instead essentially a user to user forum.

  Suppose you bought the items 13 as a download from Adobe first.

  Adobe sells more than 13 Photoshop or Premiere elements 13 elements. He sells only the latest version now (v14).

  If you bought the first 13 elements download Adobe over the last 30 days, you should be able to request a return/refund from Adobe. I do not know how he would deal with an Exchange because it sells more than 13 - May 14 deal might be involved? Just in case you are eligible, Contact Customer Care

  And, if you bought elsewhere (from an authorized dealer), you are governed by the policy of return/refund/exchange of the authorized dealer, not Adobe direct.

  But if you are not within 30 days of the purchase, you'll probably eventually find a dealer authorized to buy Photoshop elements 13, although it is still available.

  Many scenarios here, but you should have business with Adobe on this if it goes back to the purchase of Adobe. If this isn't a direct purchase from Adobe, your fate is up to the dealer.

• How to convert a Photoshop Elements 3.0 to 13 items prreserving tags catalog?

  I've repeatedly tried to convert a catalog Elements 3.0 to 13 parts of a computer to another (XP to 8.1) using backup/restore via reproductive external hard drive. I selected "Keywords to write to the files" before the backup. Organizer of items 13 detects and any the images but then error during the conversion leaving me with a screen full of images without date and name without categories or tags. Information found online, even Adobe help articles, has not solved the problem.
