Photoshop Elements

I have a new computer and it has less internal expandable drive space. I've been using Adobe Elements from almost the beginning and have over 100,000 photos and close to a 1tb in files.  I guess it's time to move it over to one of my NAS devices. My question is any recommendations on which one handles pictures better for viewing pictures while away from home? I have both a QNAP and a Synology NAS. My second question is how do I move my Elements Organizer catalog to the new computer and access the pictures after I move them to one of the NAS devices?

Hey,  My god old MacBook Pro 2016 died a few weeks ago so I needed to replace it. Sadly I did not manage to install Photoshop Elements on my new MacBook Pro 2023 14" M2 Pro, 16GB RAM, Ventura 13.2.1. I downloaded the installer from my Adobe Account. While installing the software, it said „Adobe Elements 2019 Organizer" ist beschädigt und kann nicht geöffnet werden. Es empfiehlt sich, das Objekt in den Papierkorb zu bewegen."No matter if I put the file into trash bin or not, the installation continues. Afterwards, I tried to open the Photo Editor - it said "Your application install seems to be damaged,Please reinstall the application." Reinstalling did not change anything. After reading some threads in this community, I used the CC Cleaner to deinstall all files and install it again - did not work.  Please tell me how I can use the product I purchased on my new Mac! 🙂  

When trying to use the text tool in Elements 24, why does a text in a foreign language show up every time?  I have to delete it every time before I can add my text.

Note below that the  "Haze Removal" icon does not appear under "Advanced Adjustments" in my Photoshop Elements 20 Video Editor, nor does it or anything appear when typing in "Haze" in the optional search bar..  I had actually used it some weeks ago when editing another video, but it seems to have disappeared.  Can anyone explain how this might have happened and/or offer advice to restore the "Haze Removal" feature under editing effects "Advanced  Adjustments"? 

I just upgraded my iMac to the latest version of Sonoma 14.0 and I went to open my Photoshop Elements 2022 program and under Expert mode, the Styles tab is no longer showing as individual graphic boxes. All I am getting is the same square over and over again, which then I have to hover over to see what the actual style is? I've searched Adobe and the web to see if this is just a glitch or is this Adobe telling me that I have to now purchase their latest version as this older version is no longer compatible with the latest Mac update? I have also both closed the program and restarted the computer to no avail, the same issue has persisted once I re-open my Photoshop Elements program.

I want to change the order the folders are presented in from oldest to newest to newest to oldest

I've just renamed a few hundred file names using File Manager and expected Organizer to update the catalog accordingly. It doesn't appear to have done this.Various files no longer show up in Organizer and what I see in the Folder view doesn't match what I see in File Explorer.Should Organizer automatically deal with file renames or do I need to rebuild\fix the catalog?

Hi, years ago I purchased this software and was able to use it fine from my expired Windows pc, but somehow the cd software serial number carefully typed to my present Windows 10 pc keeps showing as invalid. I read some community discussions about this and was told to download this program, which I did, so it has been installed no problem to my computer, but still, the serial number doesn't allow me to play it unless I opt for the 30 day trial. I've opted for the trail, and now have access, but will be in same predicament when 30 days runs out. Please help, thanks, RC

Hi, First I'm not great on tech things really at 67yr old, I tried to post this message once before a few days ago, but I don't think I did it right. Anyway I had two amazon gift cards at xmas, used them to get PSE 2024 on amazon, I already has the 22 version. Went through the process online codes, had to go on the adobe website, given another code for activation, eventually it said the activation code was no good, I double checked the number was right. tried it again, same thing. won't work. It askes me to sign-in, takes me to adobe website, sign it, it says all is good , go to software and it says sign-in failed. So this happens everytime I try now.  No Idea what to do when I've paid and installed something I paid for, that is not working. Amazon are no help and I don't seem to be able to get help from Adobe. IF all is lost I might just not bother anymore trying and have to take the financial loss sadly.  Rob

Hallo!Can some one tell me if Photoshop Premiere wirks with Windows 11? I checked this ou but somehow it doesnt function. Maybe I did something wrongI would appreciate your help! Thanks!!   {Title edited by Moderator}

I'm using Windows 11 (but the same problem occurred with Windows 10) and have Photoshop Elements Version 21.0 installed. As shown in the attached file, part of the upper panel showing basic, guided and expert views, and also part of the lower panel are blacked out. So I have to move my cursor around and guess where the basic or expert views are located, and when I open one of the tools, much of it doesn't show, nor do all the photos that I have opened because they are in the blacked-out area. Has anyone run into this problem and found a solution? 

Hi,i bought adobe photoshop elements 12 in 2014, I installed it only once and registered it to an email that i have no access too. How can i reinstall it now? I have the box version with serial number, but when i try the number it is already in use and cant go any further.Cheers

PSE 2024. My Fonts stopped working. I can't get them to display/work.I don't believe I hit anything to stop them.Thanks for your help. 

If I open Elements once and close it, then it won't reopen.  I have to open Task Manager, find Photoshop Elements 15 Editor, click on it then click on end Task and then I can reopen it.  How can I force Elements to completely close after I exit so I don't have to go through Task Manager all the time.  Yes I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it.  Running Windows 10  with all The latest updates.

Even wat voor informatie. Ik werk op een Samsung Galaxy  book3 en dan in de tablet-stand.  En ik werk met de S-pen.  Ik ben aan het tekenen op een nieuwe doorzichtige laag maar als ik linksboven een lijn teken verschijnt deze rechtsonder. Iemand een idee hoe dit kan en hoe dit opgelost kan worden?   

I have installed PE2020 and I am unable to download photos from my PC to my iPhone or iPad using itunes.  The option is present in itunes but no photos appea or albums appear. iTunes screenprint below.   I used to do this years ago on an older version of PE.  iTunes version 12.10.3.1 is the latest.  iPhone ios is 12.4.1. iPad ios is 13.3. 

Ich habe einen neuen leistungsstarken PC und jetzt PSE 24 installiert. Ich habe wiederholt versucht meinen Katalog in dem "für alle Benutzer zugänglichen Katalog" wieder herzustellen. Doch alle Versuche enden, daß ich den Katalog zwar wiederherstellen kann, aber immer nur in dem "Benutzerdefinierten Pfad" . Dort kann man nichts verschieben. Was [cursing removed] mache ich verkehrt. Bitte um Hilfe!     [Subject renamed for clarity. Was "Using the Community"]    

Hallo, leider kann ich die gespeicherten Dia-Shows im Organizer nicht finden

I've been directed to this site to download the Photoshop elements 2021 https://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-2021-direct-download-links-premiere.html But now everytime I tried to open the app or buy it, I just get directed to buy the new version.  The first time I downloaded it today, I was able to open it for 5 minutes before it it wouldn't let me exit a popup, so I had to force quit.  When I tried to re-open it again, it said my trial was over. I've tried to to redownload it but I get the same message "30 days expired" and redirects me to buy the new version.  I'm trying so hard to give away my money to buy this things.  Who'd a thought it would be so hard?

I've seen this issue discussed for other versions of Adobe Photoshop, but not for the latest Photoshop Elements. Most of the fixes stated to check the Paragraph tool. Photoshop Elements DOESNT have a paragraph tool. And it doesn't have the other fix to change to Middle Eastern. So how do you correct the problem. Hate seeing symbols, numbers, and periods showing up at the front of the sentence vs. the end. This happens in one line sentences.

I can't seem to uproot files from being embedded in the overall window anymore.  With the last version of Elements files opened in a free-floating manner, and I could choose to embed or lift them from the bar.  This made it easier to drag and drop selections from one file to another, but now they're all just stuck in a one-at-a-time line.  Any advice?

I just installed Photoshop Elements 2024 on a Mac Studio running 14.0 (23A344).  It crashes after 1-2 minutes repeatedly. I do not have this issue with any other Adobe apps excelt betas sometimes.  Is anyone else seeing this? [I did report this to Adobe.]

Hello, running Elements 2023 on Win 10 installation, with my new Canon TS6300 printer, I cannot find the european 10x15 paper sizes in the drop down box in the Print menu. Only US and Japanese paper sizes come up.  Where can I add the normal 4x6 (10 x 15 cm) to the list ?

WIndows laptop running Windows 11.  I was previously using PSE 2020 editing photos from my Nikon D750 for a few years. Recently PSE crashes when opening NEF files (same laptop, same camera). I upgraded to PSE 2024, and all was well, until today when PSE started to crash again.  The error message reads: "Sorry, an error occurred""Adobe Photoshop Elements has encountered a problem and need to close."(crash report attached) I have reinstalled the program, installed "AdobeCameraRaw_x64_16_1" patch, but the problem persists. I can convert to JPEG but I prefer to woirk in raw like I have been doing for years.  Frustrated and baffled. Please help.    

I am currently using PSE 14, with the program files and catalog stored on my C: drive and all of my photos saved to an external hard drive (D:).  I installed PSE 2024 on my C: and converted the current catalog, resulting in a new folder named My Catalog 1.  All of the files in the original catalog folder appear to have been copied over to the new My Catalog 1, but PSE 2024 is telling me there is no media available.  Why isn't PSE 2024 seeing the photos on the external drive?
