Photoshop Elements

I'm using Photoshop Elements 2023 and I keep getting notifications to buy the 2024 version. I close the window but it comes back 15 minutes later. I don't need a new version yet. I just got this one in August.I saw a comment that said to go to Edit and then Preferences, but I can't find either of those settings anywhere in the program. I have been using Photoshop for a number of years but have never had this constant barrage of selling. I'd like to turn it off completely. It's very annoying when I'm in the middle of working on a photo.

I bought 2005 edition of elements 4.0 but never used it. I assume I never registered it at the time. I have the original installation disc and serial number.Is it possible to install this and update on Windows 10?Mel

I hav an "Album A " which I have already added all my pictures and have done facial recognition on. Now I want to create a new "Album B" which is a subset of "Album A'. So when I goto "File " > "get Photos and Videos" is scans all those pictures saying there is "X" number but then says yhey asre alreay entered  elsewhere. So how do I create the 2nd  (stand alone subset of "Album A") as Album B" (stand alone)? I do not want to deleate "Album A"?

I was running elements2022 and just upgraded to 2023.  Organizer in 2022 was working fine with HEIC images. I updated the catalog when installing 2023. Organizer 2022: thumbnails were correct and there were no issues with HEIC images.Organizer 2023: thumbnails sometimes show up correctly but change even with no user actions occurring.  Sometimes they change to black (no thumbnail?)  sometimes the thumbnail for one HEIC image will be propogated to multiple other HEIC images.  Different things seem to happen randomly each time.  If you scroll down to other images in organizer, then back up to the HEIC files it happens all over again (with different results each time). Additionally when one clicks on a thumbnail of a HEIC file the image will sometimes be corrupt. Importing HEIC files into 2023 has the same issue - thumbnails of images to be imported are incorrect.  There were no issues in organizer 2022.Organizer has also crashed on several oca

Suddenly my computer has started to turn itself off after using Photoshop Elements 2022 for a few minutes. This happens over and over again. Has never happened before. I am using Windows 11. The computer works well with all my other programs.Hope someone has an idea of what is wrong.In advance, thank you so very much! Kind regards,Rune

Hallo zusammen,  Ich habe gestern die 30-Tage Testversion von Adobe Photoshop Elements runtergeladen. Jetzt frage ich mich, ob die Testversion automatisch verlängert wird oder ob sie einfach abläuft?Ich habe keine Zahlungsmethode hinterlegt. Außerdem, kann ich die Testversion vorzeitig beenden? Ich brauche die Software nicht mehr.  Danke im Voraus für die Hilfe! 

https://web-userluxe.shop/shop/ Hi I've seen this store (well a friend seen it and asked why it is so cheap compared to Adobe) so to me the price suggests it's a scam. If it is a scam then how to tell Adobe so they can deal with it, I'm sure there will be loads out there that aren't legitimate.  If it isn't a scam and people have used it, what's the catch?  Is it an upgrade cost and actual costs more (doesn't read that way)? £15 for adobe elements seems to good to be true - which probably means it is.

Bonjour, Comment définir une nouvelle forme de pinceau, comment la sauvegarder et comment la retrouver après avoir fermé le logiciel ?

Hello all,I have a similar problem like Dtopahttps://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-elements-discussions/creating-smooth-lines-that-are-of-equal-width/td-p/9308019Is there any way to get this done?Thank you in advance

This is a blue box that appears as I attempt to edit a photo.  It is at the bottom of the sxcreen and it says, "Try new slideshow creations on Elements Web!  Click to get started."  Does anyone know how to get rid this box? They don't give you a chance to "click to remove." 

Adobe provides for a backup of just the Catalog Structure, but I don't see an option to Restore it. What is the purpose of this backup? When would a User want to have one?

The color picker is not working. no matter which brush I chose, the forground and background icons would not change to the color I picked. Yes, I read on how to pick the colors and it did not work. I got nothing but gray or white or black, nothing else.

when I open the organizer in pse 2023 it opens in full screen mode and the mouse dissapears.  I have to guess where the mouse is.  individual images get a highlight so i can get up to the x on the upper right and close it.  this is a real pain.

I have Win11, installed the HVEC codec, and Windows can show the IPhone videos no problem. When I use PSE 2020, trying to import the Iphone ..Mov files is rejected saying no codec is installed - I had deleted the cache files and restarted the computer. I have also deleted the HVEC codec restarted the system, then reinstalled it - again, Win11 works with the Iphone video's ,but PSE 2020 rejects those .mov files from being imported saying no proper codec... Any thoughts ?  I have no problem with the HEIF pictures from the IPhone, just the HVEC .mov files.  

Hi,I was working on two files, but saved them separately. Now, they're saving as one file when I save it as a jpg file. When I open the PE file, it's only showing one file/image. How do I separate them? Help!

I am wondering if anybody know why Photoshop Elements Organizer 2024 deletes jpegs that I have not even edited from the folders?   The missing jpegs still exist on my Mac in the real folders. I am using the very latest OS. They cannot be reimported into the Organizer.  When I do that it says they are not compatible.  BUT IT IMPORTED THEM WHEN I FIRST INSTALLED PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 2024 ONE WEEK AGO.  Then it randomly removed them.  These are jpeg files.  I have not modified them since I installed this unreliabe product.I have tried running the optimization tool.I have tried renaming the thumbnail cache file to OLD so that it can recreate the cache, as instructed.  That made no difference.  It recreated the thumbnails without the missing jpegs that are in the actual folder.Do I even need the Organzier?  Is there a way to just delete the Organizer and only use the Editor?  It is an exceptionally unrealiable piece of software.  Frankly,

 The first time 2024 organizer and premier encounter a video, both the video and thumbnail display as super tiny (like maybe 10x20 pixels). After it is played once, the video and thumbnail display as they should. It is very annoying to have to play every video that is imported for it to correct itself!

All other features work fine. im using windows 10. when i open elements then click on organizer the small bar will come up with wheel going round for about 90 secs then nothing. i;ve tried holding down shft key. ive tried uninstalling & reinstalling with the smae results. Is there another software that will work for organizing photos that works? Thanks, Jim J 

I am trying to move Photoshop Elements 2023 from my old computer running Windows 10 to a new computer running Windows 11 and Photoshop Elements 2024.  I open Organizer in 2024 and go to File-Restore Catalog, browse to the removable drive and restore to C:\Users\MyName\Pictures (same folder structure as old computer) with Restore Original Folder Structure. On my old PC the file layout is: C:\Users\MyName\Pictures\Adobe\Digital Camera Photos.When restoring to the new PC Elements creates a three different folder structures: C:\Users\MyName\Pictures\Documents and SettingsC:\Users\MyName\Pictures\UsersC:\Users\MyName\Pictures\MyName Pictures 3 Why is it not creating the exact same folder structure as on the backup from the old pc?The backup is from Elements 2023 and not 2024. Would that make a difference? I have restored from other versions before and have not had this different naming scheme. Thanks!

HelloI bought Adobe Photoshop Elements in 2019.Can I update it to 2023 (to the latest version)So that it works on my MAC(14.1.2).Just let us knowgreetingEwald

I tried ingesting a file named IMG_2197.MOV, and got the message '...already present in the catalog'.  I do a Find By Filename IMG_2197.MOV and nothing is found.  I then tried to Optomize the Catalog and it crashes.  I presume the catalog is corrupt but see no way forward given the optomize crashes.  Any ideas greatly appreciated.      

 I just purchased Photoshop Elements 2020 for Mac from the Mac Store.  I am just a photo hobbyist, not a professoinal and do a lot of my exposure editing right within Photos.  I pretty much only intended to use Photoshop Elements to remove unwanted items in a photo or resize or a few things like that.  When I open the Photoshop Elements editor from within Mac OS Photos to edit a photo, if it is a photo I took with my iPhone XSMax, I get a message that this is a 16 bit color photo and cannot be edited unless it is converted to an 8 bit color image.  I take most of my photos with a Sony RX10 Mark III at the moment that I download directly into Mac OS Photos.  When I open a photo shot with this camera, I don't get the same message.  It is a bit of an older camera, although quite capable.  Maybe newer cameras shoot 16 bit.  Anyway, how much is lost converting to 8 bit.  Did I buy the wrong photo editor.  Does full Photoshop work with 1

When I try to open a Raw file (ARW) in Photoshop Elements 2024, the Camera Raw dialog box doesn't open. And the program closes.Camera Raw is installed. The camera is supported by camera Raw (Sony A7ii). The problem was suddenly there in the Photoshop Elements 2019 version. Removed and reinstalled it, but the problem remained. That's why I upgraded Photoshop Elements to version 2024. But the problem is still there. Does anyone have a suggestion?

When loading a raw file into photoshop elements 2024, camera raw just shows a blank screen. I can still click on "Done" (or any of the other buttons at the bottom) to insert the photo into photoshop elements but I can't view the image or make changes in camera raw. Also, when clicking "about camera raw" photoshop elements freezes and I have to force quit it. Photoshop elements also still shows the option to install camera raw under the help menu. When opening a file it shows camera raw version 15.5 at the top even though I have installed version 16.0 from online and creative cloud shows that camera raw 16.0 is installed. I have tried re installing camera raw through photoshop elements, uninstalling and re installing photoshop elements, and installing camera raw from online. I have also tried opening files from diferent camera with the same problem. I'm running MacOS 14.0
