Photoshop Elements

Just paid for 2024 update from my previous 2021 version and having significant questions about the organiser.  Firstly the interface does not seem to be as good and wastes a lot of useful space. I work with W11 on a 28" monitor and discovered only by chance that while the window height can be resized in the normal way (cursor change to double ended arrow) anywhere on the horizontal window edges, it only changes the width if placed on the edge of the menu bar at the top.        Secondly the side panel items are spaced much further apart, (effectively double spaced) so far fewer items can be seen when looking at file folders. I couldn't see any way to adjust these.       

HalloBeim Fotoeditor in Photoshop Elements V20.0 werden auf meinem Monitor die Bilder in einer schlechten Qualkität angezeigt. So ist fast nicht ersichtlich was bei einer Änderung genau geändert wurde.Wenn ich die Fotos dann im Organizer betrachte habe ich eine sehr gute Qualität.Gibt es da evtl. Einstellungen die das verbessern?

When I open Elements organiser some of the photos have been revolved through 90 degrees. How can I stop this happening please?

My color swatches look funny - why? I use Photoshop Elements 2022 on Mac (Sonom 14.1)

Hi it's very importan for my company open psd created by photoshop CC 2024 by photoshop elements.There is 2 designers with ps CC 2024 who created a PSD, then send the psd's to several workers with only photoshop elements. And this workers have to open this psd and ONLY hide or show several layers. The problem is the psd who was created with PS CC 2024 can´t be opened by PS elements. The error that shows PS elements is in spanish "el comando fijar no esta disponible", the translation would be something like "the fix command is not available". What's the compatibility with psd with layers beetween photoshop and elements? Thank you.

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 2022. Purchased in June 2022. Just recently went to edit a photo on my MAC and the program will not show uploaded photos in the photo bin properly. It shows only the same photo repeated and all distorted. Along with where you would select a colour. It now shows the colour box split in half with two colours. I went to the Adobe site - chat bot - finally got an agent who said she couldn't help me but I have to call 18008336687 which I did. He kept directing me to the community.adobe.com site. And when I asked if he would be helping me or is he asking me to find my own solution, he hung up on me. What do I do. My photo program is not working and I can't seem to find anyone to help me.

I have signed out Photoshop 14 and uninstalled it on my old computer and installed it on my new one but I get a message on my new computer that the programme is already in use on another computer, which is not right.  Can anyone advise what I can do? KenL

I recently installed PSE 24 and the bottom toolbar has a white portion (which shows fine) and a much larger black portion that extends across the remainder of the screen. I cannot see any tools or photos loaded in this black portion, but if I hover my mouse, it shows things are there and I can click on them (I just can't see it). I have tried rebooting and even reinstalling with no luck in order to get this black bar removed. Any ideas? Stacy

I've just started using photo editor in Elements 2024.  The online User Guide says that "Photoshop Elements automatically keeps track of the file’s edit history and adds this information to the file’s metadata".    When can I see this information?   In Photoshop, there's a history log in File Info that shows all the edits that were done to the image and that remains even after you close the file.   But when I go into File Info in Elements, it looks like there's a 'history' section there but it's empty.    Is there someplace I can see the file's edit history even after I save and close the file?  (To be clear, I do not mean the History panel that opens along the right side of the window so you can undo recent edits.)  Thanks for any information.(I'm using windows 11 if that matters.)

I have made a white canvas into which I want to import a photo.When I choose "Ctrl + O" to open a photo it comes into a new own canvas every time. How can I get it right into the canvas I created? "Ctrl C" and "Ctrl V" does not work, to move it to where I want it. /Linnea

Hi Skeleton Crew photography, I've had photoshop on my desktop computer for 3 years now I have Photoshop 2020, I don't have internet but I still edit photos. Can I stack photos on this with no internet, or do I have to have internet and if I can stack with no internet can you please explain to me how to proceed with this. Thank you so much for being a great community and helping all the wonderful artists in Photoshop, ✌ 

Hi folks,Is there a tool  or technique that I can use to correct the lighting on a photo which is light on one side but gets progressively darker across the entire frame.Thanks

See quetion in subject.  I have Photoshop Elements 2020 on my Windows PC.  I can import HEIC files, would like to keep in that format due to its superior file size and quality.  Does Photoshop Elements 2022 now work for editing HEIC files now?  Can't seem to find anything other than on Whats New: Support for HEIF and HEVC on Windows.

I have Windows 11 and have installed the HEIF and HEVC extensions to support HEIC files from Apple.  I can open HEIC files in IrfanView and in the windows 'Photos' app.  But I cannot open them in Photoshop Elements 2023. I've tried opening (importing) them in the organizer, but get a message that "the file is damaged or is in a format that cannot be included ...". I've tri'ed opening them with 'Open in Camera Raw',  and get an error "the file cannot be opened as its an unsupported file type". I've tried opening them in the Photo Editor directly (File/Open) and this crashes the app completely.  Surely by 2023 we should be able to open HEIC files, especially since the native Windows Photos can, as well as IrfanView? 

After a PC problem necessitating a Windows 10 reset, which removed Elements 2020 (and other apps), and needed a restore, I maybe have a problem. I followed the instructions on screen, selected "restore using original file structure" and got photos back, HOORAY. But,  why has it put the Photo Catalog and Program Data folders in with the rest of my folders on the external drive I use for my photos? Surely they should be in the"C" drive?  Can I move them or just leave them where they are?John

I have an old version of Elements 10 that I have tried to install on my Windows 11 PC but it just won't work so I am considering getting the latest version, 2024. Can I buy the upgrade without having the older version installed or do I have to have the older version installed on my laptop to accept the new one? Elements 10 is registered on my Adobe account.

Hi there,when I add text in Photoshop Elements it always shows up in small capitals. I can't find a way to use uppercase only when I push Shift... which is the normal way of writing text.I tried the trouble shooting mentioned here already: https://helpx.adobe.com/de/photoshop-elements/kb/type-tool-stuck-caps-lock-error.html But this didn't work.I hope someone can help me solve this issue.Thank you so much for your support in advance!

Hello - I'm dealing with a lightning strike that damaged my computer and took out an external hard drive (and yes, I was using a surge protector).  All my media was safely stored on a separate external hard drive, so no problems importing photos into Creative Cloud.  I've spent years scanning old film slides & photos and then carefully adding key words in Elements 2019.  When I access the files in Creative Cloud (Lightroom, Photoshop or Bridge), the Key Words are gone.  Where are Key Words stored?  How do I find them and how do I import or reattach them?

Every time I open the Organizer in PSE 24, it shows a dialog box saying, “Elements Organizer has encountered a problem and needs to close”.  It allows me to send a report.  The first few times, I put in an explanation of what happened (nothing happened) and included my email address.  I got tired of that, so now I leave the message box blank but send the report.  The strange thing is that the program never closes, and it seems to work fine.  Even though the program works, these constant false error messages are very annoying.  How do I get them to stop? Here is the system info generated by the program: Elements Organizer 24.0.0.0Core Version: 24.0 (20230922.Git.master.31442ae)Language Version: 24.0 (20230922.Git.master.31442ae)Current Catalog:Catalog Name: ...Catalog Location: ...Catalog Size: 11.1MBCatalog Cache Size: 109.8MBSystem:Operating System Name: Windows 10Operating System Version: 10.0System Architecture: Intel CPU Family:6 Model:7 Step
