Just reinstalled Photoshop on a new PC and I have two issues which I need sorting - 1- The mouse pinter is three hands, I remeber in the past I had to change some setting but have forgot which one.2 - How do a get the wheel on the mouse to enlarge photos when editing.Cheers Graham 

I had a powewr outage that totally trashed my internal HD causing the total loss of my older Adobe Elements program.  I can't even remember when I bought that program now since I only used it to add Text to photos!  Since it was downloaded and not installed from a disk Adobe doesn't seem to have any record of my purchase since I can't  give an order number, date of purchase, or version number!  Can anyone help me to get back my version of Elements?

I am using PSE Organizer (on Windows) already many years and the number of photos is steadily growing. Currently 23.000 photo's / 80 Gb. I have just upgraded from version 10 to version 2020. Main reason for the upgrade is a hopefully better performance. In version 10 I experienced growing performance issues: regular screen freezes and sometimes a crash. I was also wondering if there is something like a maximum size from performance perspective and if it is maybe better to make 2 smaller catalogs in stead of 1 big catalog. Although splitting up a catalog seems me not that easy and at least a lot of work. Wim

I have used Adobe Elements with Apple products for many years, and I just upgraded from an iPhone 6s to an iPhone 12. Normally when I create an album in Elements (V 15), I sync with iTunes (V 12.11.4.15) to my IPad Air (OS 14.7.1) or to my iPhone 6S (OS 14.7.1). The albums upload into an OS album with the title and photos in proper order, a very useful tool.  I am using an Windows 10 fully updated desktop. This process does not work with my iPhone 12 (OS 14.7.1). Now when I sync the album in Adobe Photoshop Elements the sync loads the correct photos into the iPhone 12 photo library only. They are not synced into an album with the title and the photos in the correct order. This is a problem. Can anyone help? Thanks

I've just upgraded from Photoshop Elements 15 to Photoshop Elements 2020, running under Windows 10.   I use iTunes to copy selected albums from the Organiser onto my iPhone and iPad.  However since the upgrade any new albums I create in the Organiser are not being listed in iTunes so I can't sync them to the phone or iPad.  Additionally any new photos I add to an existing album in the Elements Organiser do not appear on the phone/iPad when I sync that album. Suggestions welcome

How do I Save as multi page pdf in Photoshop Elements 2022?

I purchased Adobe Photoshop Premiere Elements 2022 but I cannot get into it. This screen opens:Then I click on the Editor button:Then this image comes up and it looks as though it is opening, but it never does. It never stops spinning on the left and the editor never opens. I am thinking of just buying the newest version, but should I unistall this oonefirst? Yok33

Just loaded PE23 on my iMac; upgrading from PE15.   Displayed thumbnails are fine but when one is selected the resultant larger image is slightly blurred. On taking that image through to PE Editor the image is once again sharp.   On returning from the Editor the image thumbnail is blank and refuses to be redisplayed?

Hello  I have installed PSE 21 on two computers: one with W10 and got no issue. I reconnected my catolog and all runs fine. Doing the same on my portable PC (under W11) I face a pretty bad situation when runnig "Organizer" : after having reconnected my catalog, the upper line menu (file ...) is not operable, as well as the "sorting" button (when pressed, it gets grey and nothing happens). However all the rest of the functions runs fine. By the way, the "editor" part runs fine .  I have reinstalled a few times, used a small set of photos to created a new very small catalog. Whatever I do, I face the same issue. And with no acces to rhe menu I cannot chek and change préferences .. I let the programs run a long time but no change. Actually I faced the same issue with PSE 19.0 on that PC  (W11) and I expected that with 21.0 the problem would have been solved  As anyone faced the same problem Regards   Alain

Last week I bought a new Mac mini with the latest M2 chip, Photoshop elements 2023, and a new Sandisk SSD drive.  I did a full backup of my old Mac running Organizer 2021, to the new SSD drive.   First I tried restoring this Org2021 backup to the new computer running Org2023, but the restore crashes.  I then installed Org2021 on the new machine and the restore was successful to Org2021.  I then opened Org2023 and was able to convert the catalog ok.  So all the images and meta are now fine on the new Org2023,  and I am able to backup the Catalog Structure ok,  but a Full Backup crashes.  I have forwarded the crash report to Adobe but no response yet.  Any ideas appreciated!  

Hi All,I have been on the chat and phone with Adobe support several times now, and they have been unable to resolve this issue (see image), so far, by resetting preferences "after a restart" in settings or even with a "clean" install by their senior techs. Anyone else have a similar problem and or solution? Thanks for any help!

I recently was in manage catalogs : custom locations where I had four catalogs and clicked out to My Catalog.  When I came back to select one of the custom location catalogs, the list was gone.  How do I search for the list of missing catalogs.  They ar not located in the default position for catalogs.

I've just upgraded from PSE15 and am struggling with this new version.I use to be able to drag a layer to the tab of the tab of the other image I want to add this layer to. I'm doing football players and I'm opening the player image in one tab and when it's ready I'm compliling all the players into one multi layered image file. Now it seems that I have to do this 'floating window' thing and it's much more clicking and moving of images. Makes me want to go back to the way it was. Please help, Thank you.

I have the pastiest version 2020 of photoshop elements and cannot seem to do a panorama photomerge.  I go to the "guided" tab.  Select photomerge panorama.  Then I highlight 3 photos from the photobin I want to merge.  I have it set to auto panorama.  I click "create panorama" and it just jumps me back to the start of the guided tab where it lists the 6 different photomerge options.  No other pop-ups.  Nothing showed up in the expert tab.  I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. 

I have Photoshop Elements 10 installed on my PC and I'm having to do a factory restore of my PC because my C Drive has run out of space. Frustrating because I've got loads of space on D, but all my programs are on the C drive and cannot easily be moved to free up space Logging into my Adobe account, I no longer have a download link to Photoshop Elements 10, although my serial number for the software is still listed in my "Products" section. Does anyone know why this might have disappeared? Am I no longer able to download Elements 10 because the software has been discontinued? Seems a bit harsh if so, as I purchased a one off licence that doesn't need to be renewed.

I'm making Christmas slideshows and the only Christmas music offered by PSE 2023 is Deck the Halls. I would like some variety. But where can I find music with the correct extensions?

My issue is with the Eraser Tool. For the tool, there is a cirle-cursor. My Issue is that the eraser tool does not fill the circle-cursor but is inside of the circle-cursor (small than the cursor). So, when I want to erase close to a line, I have to guess by overlapping the circle-cursor. It is very frustrating. It used to work, no longer. It is not a caps lock issue from what I can tell. I am using PS Elements 2019. Thank you in advance for your help and guidance on this one!

I backed up a catalog from Organizer PSE 11 on an older Intel based iMac.  When I tried to restore the catalog to Organizer PSE 2021 on a MacBook Pro M1 (Apple's new chip), I get the error shown in the attachment.   I tried doing this from two different external drives,  normal drive and an SSD and get this same error.  Any suggestions?   

I had an iMac on Sierra and used Organizer 11.  I also had PSE 15 and never converted the Organizer catalogue to PSE 15.  I backed up the catalogue and photos to a hard drive and then micgrated to another iMac which is now on Mojave.  Organizer 11 now displays only half of the screen so I suppose it doesn't work with the new OS.  I have another MacBook Pro M1 with PSE 2021 and I tried to restore the Catalogue but it didn't recognize the backup file (catalog.buc?).   I have copied the picture folder over to the M1 separately but, is there anyway to just copy the catalogue separately without the photos?Thanks for any help.

I am trying to reproduce in PSE 2023 the change that happens when I print a color image. The best way I can describe it is that the print appears to have had a transparent wash that makes everything uniformly duller and grayer.I want to create an image I can post on a printing forum which shows the image I see on my monitor side by side with the image the printer creates.I do not see how to do it, but I think I want to adjust the opacity to more than 100%.Is this possible?thanksbaumgrenze

I'm used to an older version of Elements and can't figure out how to add a page to a project I'm working on. Did they remove this capability from 2023? I used to right click on the thumbnail and had the option of add a blank page or add a page with current layout. Now I only seem to be able to dupicate. 

Hello,I am a relatively new Adobe Photoshop Elements user who recently found out that when I save a file created using Photoshop Elements, Photoshop Elements will update the Date modified metadata to the current day and time / date AND, for one reason or another, also update the Date created metadata to the current date, for example, 24th September 2023 at whatever time. On 24th September 2023 (around that date), I opened one of my Photoshop Elements files to import and edit a photo. Then, I pressed the Ctrl and S hotkeys to open the Save or Save As window, located my opened file in the Save As window, left every setting as they were such as Layers and ICC, hit Save, and finally checked the Date modified and Date created metadata for my Photoshop Elements file in Windows File Explorer. Normally, what happens is that Photoshop Elements only changes Date modified. Date created stays the same as it should. Praise the Lord. But, this time, both Date modified AND Date created
