Photoshop Elements

I have used Adobe Photoshop successfully for some years now, but suddenly a glitch has appeared. Whenever I open a new file (as in: "File New . . . Blank File," or "File New . . . Image from Clipboard"), it comes with a superimposed grid of graph lines. They look just like graph paper. But I never selected such a feature and would like to get rid of it. Can anybody help me to restore my Adobe Photoshop program back to normal? Any assistance would be much appreciated!

When I select part of an image and copy it (Ctrl J) to a new layer, it appears in the new layer with a white background instead of a transparent one. It used to provide a transparent background. I must have changed something, but I don't know what. I am using Elements 14.

Hi...I recently upgraded from photoshop elements 19 to 22 (what a mistake). Here's the situation.  I have a fairly large number of photos (44K) and some number of videos (probably 600).  Photos are all JPG/JPEG or PNG, Videos are all .mov or .avi.  I already realized I was having issues with HEIC files so I converted all of those (even though it's supposedly supposed to handle them). Organizer now randomly hanges at various points in time:* mostly when generating thumbnails from vidoes (videos that I can run fine outside organizer)* sometimes when importing photos/videos* sometimes when trying to view a video from organizer* when I switch catalog files (this happens virtually 100% of the time)* when I perform backups  of the structure (it happened 100% of the time until I removed ALL videos) Basically, I'm dead in the water and I can only assume it's because the size of my catelog.  I've done all of the following:* reinstalled windows and photosh

I am trying to create metallic (or shiny or mirrored) text. I wanted to know if Photoshop Elements 2021 orPhotoshop Elements 2022 could achieve that. I found a video that could do it, but my result did not turn out nearly as good, despite following the instructions. It said to use the "Bevel & Emboss" feature, yet Elements 2021 does not seem to have that, so I was wondering if 2022 does, but wanted to ask before paying money for the program in the event I'm mistaken.Attached is a photo of what I'm trying to accomplish. 🙂Thank you! 🙂

Running Elements 15 here on Windows 10. Until recently, when I opened an image file in Elements, I was able to see the entire image. Now I have to zoom out 3 times in order to do so.  How can I fix this. I do a lot of cropping and really prefer to see the whole image and then zoom in if needed. Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Is it possible to update CS3 to run on Mac Monterey? My error message- The developer of this app needs it to work with this version of MacOS.

Bought a new Dell laptop. Downloaded Elements 2019 from my account. It refuses to install saying "Your browser or operating system is no longer supported". Wrong. Brand new Dell with all Windows updates.

This is in Photoshop Elements Organizer 2022. First of all, feature request: being able to undo or reset an ignored face should be part of the program.  If you accidentally ignore a face, it should be able to be undone.  This is UX best practice to allow undo. https://www.nngroup.com/articles/user-control-and-freedom/  .  In Organizer, accidentally ignoring a face cannot be undone. The "solution" of resetting all faces in your catalog and starting from the beginning is not a solution.  That "solution" is like telling someone that if they accidentally bold something in a word processor then they need to erase and rewrite their entire document. There is a way to reset all the ignored faces (but not destroying all the other faces), if you're willing to go spelunking in the organizer SQLite database and change some data. It's not perfect, but could save you hours, days or weeks over resetting your whole organizer catalog in order to get some ign

Hi,I purchased and installed Element 2022 (PC) in October last year. The Editor ran okay for a couple of days, then started taking 4-5 minutes to load. I eventually found and successfully used the ‘Enable or Disable Administrator Account’ fix.I then noticed that after most Windows updates, I had the same issue, but could always apply the same fix. After the latest windows update of a couple of days ago, the fix no longer works (I’m back to waiting 4-5 minutes for Editor to load).Is there another fix, or is Adobe working on a permanent fix please?(I have and have never had any issues with anyother software)Phil.

I recently installed Photoshop Elements 2022. (windows, bought from microsoft store) no problems with the installation itself, but when I opened the program I'm missing menus. The buttons for "quick" - "guided" - "expert" seem not to be there (picture 1), but if I click where they should be, I can switch between them. i'm also missing the menu/tools at the bottom of the program, but i have a small part of the menu/tools, so it seems like it's there just not visible/usable. I have experienced the same/similar problem with the 2019 version and I never found out what the problem was. I gave up trying to fix it since I could still use the program enough for my use at the time. No problems with the menu/tool ​​at the bottom of the program on the 2019 edition, but still the same glitch when switching between maximize and window On the 2019 edition, the buttons for "quick" - "guided" - "expert" became visible when I moved the mouse over them, and they remained visible until I r

Am using Elements 2022. I receive emails like this from Adobe Elements -''Photos that move.With a little AI magic, one click can add 2D or 3D motion to your pics and turn them into easy-to-share MP4s or GIFs. Cruise into creativity with Moving Photos! ''How do I do that? Thanks

When I printed a photo blue appeared which is not on the original photo as shown but only in the white window frame area. Help?

I have 40,000 images from the past 6 years on PSE organizer but they are spread out over 3 external drives!  (I use PS to edit but store on PSE organ.)  Is there a way to consolidate them all onto 1 drive without messing them up so badly I can't find anything?  I know that I can't move them around out of PSE and need to do it within the program.  I do a full restore every month so I have that but don't know if it would even work to go back if I have a disaster on my hands.  I've attached 6 pages of screen shots showing the entire catalog.  Yes, I know, it is a mess!  Any advice is TRULY appreciated!

I am trying to create a simple slide show using Photoshop Elements 19.  When I select images in the Organizer and then click Create > Slide Show, I see a screen with three icons at the left, menus at the top etc. but only for a nanosecond before it auto-generates a Preview.  When the preview ends, that's it.   The only thing visible, apart from the slider bar at the bottom, are the Theme and Music icons at the left.  Which don't respond (except oddly, a couple of times during my repeated and very frustrated attempts to use them).  The  only way out of this is to hit the Esc key, which asks me if I want to save my slide show to the Organizer, even though I've had no chance to add media, edit it.  When I respond no, it just takes me out of the Organizer.   Below is what I see, covering the entire screen.  I have been looking online at Adobe Elements 19 tutorials etc.  They all start with the premise that you are jumped i

I have Elements 2020, but I have had several previous versions over the years in which I saved all my photos. Am I able to open those previous versions and look at the photos there? Will have I have to import the whole backup to the the Elements 2020 version? I don't want to do that. I'm mainly using Elements now for when I want to edit a photo in more detail, so I'm not importing all photos to it. Thank you.  And thanks also for the help with suddenly not being able to open up Elements 2020. For some reason, I had to download the Creative Cloud thingy, but that did help me to get on. So thanks for that advice! 

after analysing what files the application was requesting, it became evident that my application was hanging on my high FPS videos in my catalogue. However, it would still function in the foreground partially, until it came time to close out. Windows 10 resource monitor showed that it wasn't requesting new files, but was still reading my PCIe NVME SSD at close to 1Gb/s; but there were no files to show for it. The CPU tab shoed that handels were still present with the initial 6 items (HEIC & MOV) that it was working on, but no additional media was being processed. Of the initial items, requested, one of them was a video captured using iPhone 12 Pro at 1080p @ 240fps on the stock camera. I moved those videos to a separate, unindexed folder, reopened Organizer, and the application was able to finish analysing faces and generating thumbnails. hope this helps someone out there. Adobe Devs, please make note of this bug.  

I've been using Photoshop Elements Editor for years, and have never used Organizer (I'm sure it's special, I'm just not interested), but Editor has starting asking me to install it (Organizer is not even on my computer). I don't want it, but the only options Editor gives is "Intall Now" or "Intall On Exit/Remind Me Later". Where is the "I don't want Organizer, so stop asking me to install it" option? It's really annoying as it's asking every time I open Editor.

I have user created tags and want to search for Tag1 or Tag2 pictures.  I'm looking for photos that have either tag (“or”) not both tags (“and”).   How do I do that? I have AE2021, Win 10. Thanks.

After being at my wit's end and not hearing back from Adobe, I contacted Apple.  I was told to close my apps, except the browser that had our chat going on, then to do these steps: 1.  Open System Profiles2.  Navigate to Users&Groups3.  Unlock so you can change settings4.  Create a new Administrator for your account - NOTE:  click the box that indicates new administrator5.  Make the name as close to your other account as you can; remember to write the simple PW on a piece of paper - don't lose it!6.  Click save, relock the prefs7.  Go to the Adobe site and download the latest PSE app on your Adobe account but don't launch the app8.  Reboot your machine and sign in with your account name and PW9.  go to your downloads folder and launch PSE 202210.  Voila! I was told my admin prefs might have gotten corrupted.  This solution worked for me!

I had  a canon 7d mark 11 and was always able to process raw images.  I just purchased a canon EOS R7 and I now find out that I am unable to process raw images with this camera.  I have photoshop elements 2019.

Hello!I feel like this is a silly question but am asking anyway. I want to create gift tags. How do I create a file so that it will print both the front and the back side of the document? Do I duplicate the file and then put a new design on the back? I don't even know if this makes sense.Thank you for any help you can offer!

J'ai payé et installé Photoshop Element 2022 (Windows 10) depuis novembre 2021 et il fonctionnait à peut prêt correctement. D'un jour sur l'autre le programme ne veut plus se lancer !Je l'ai réinstallé et j'ai redémarré mon système sans succès !Je regrette d'avoir payé si cher quelque chose qui ne fonctionne pas et où il n'existe même pas un support client digne de ce nom !!

I have PE12 and it has worked great in the past.  I just downloaded some pictures from a camera memory card and the thumbnails look fine, but the pictures won't go into focus like they used to after 1-2 seconds. If I leave the memory card in the computer, everything works, but as soon as it is removed, the pictures blur and a small red icon shows in the upper left of each thumbnail. What can I do to return focus after the card is removed?

I had PSE 2020 trial which worked fine. I went ahead and purchased 2021. Downloaded but seemed to be stuck on verifying organizer. So editor and organizer won't launch but says they're open in task. I restarted the computer and this little window verifying organizer pops up again but doesn't load all the way and seems stuck. I just spent 140 for this program. I had read that elements was basically the only photoshop that works with Catalina 10.15 . It does say in system requirements that it's compatible as well so what could be the issue?
