Photoshop Elements

How do I know if my Elements 2022 has registered successfully? I have the trial version on my Windows 11 laptop, after messing around on it I liked what I seen and purchased the licence (Redemption code) from Amazon UK. Signed into my adobe account entered the redemption code and received the licence/serial number.Entered and activated the serial number in the trial version which seemed to go ok, the nag screen asking if I want to buy or activate the program no longer appears.In my Adobe account/plans & payments/Activated devices shows "No Activated Devices".Does this take some time to appear in my account? Thanks

How do i convert a .jpg file to a .psd ? 

Hi, I'm having an issue after reinstalling my copy of Photoshop Elements 2020. When I use the Move Tool to drag a layer around, its contents do not refresh to the new position unless I release the mouse button - only then the layer is redrawn in the new location. I've disabled Auto Select Layer. I've switched to my dedicated GPU. Any ideas what I can do to have it behave properly? Before I had to reinstall it because of a Windows clean install, it worked as expected, I could see the layer contents moving around while dragging. Another smaller issue that I always had with the 2020 version is that when I use CTRL to select a few layers, the last layer I click in the panel doesn't get selected unless I release CTRL. Not a deal breaker, but still annoying. I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thank you!

Photoshop Elements won't open. I have tried re-installing. I have windows pro 7

I just purchased the New Photoshop Elements 2021 and installed it on my computer. It worked fine for a few days and then today when I tried to open the editor it froze at initialization and wouldn't open. I removed and reinstalled the program but the same problem occurred again. Can anyone help? I never had this problem before with Elements.

Quand je veux retoucher une photo dans organisateur, je peux en retoucher seulement deux ou trois. Après je ne peux accéder à Editeur soit rapide, guidée ou expert. Je sélectionne une image mais Editeur ne fonctionne pas. 

Hello, I was using layer styles in Elements yesterday and they all worked  as they should.  I started using it today and it seems all the style specifications have changed from original.  For instance, the bevel and drop shadow numbers are several times higher now when compared to the original (I was able to compare to an old file).  This seems to have happened to all of my styles, see an example attached.  I tried to Reset Preferences and it didn't work.  I posted in the Elements forum with no response. Any ideas for a fix without re-installing all of my styles? Thanks,Dave

Today I created a new subfolder in Elements 2020, and I then tried to rename it.  I received a small dialog box that said "Analysis is currently running on the selected media.  Please try again after some time."    This has been going on for nearly 30 minutes now ... how do I get this to stop?  This seems to be a new condition, I've been able to rename folders before ....?????  Thanks in advance.

Hijust installed elements 15. All photographs converted.  Can I delete elements 12 (also have 9)?RegardsMikeph

I have upgraded from Elements 12 to 12018.  Now when I edit a file and save-as to new file name  (xxx.tif saved as xxx_edited-1.tif, or -1 to -2) the people tags are lost in the organizer for the photo.   The files are being saved in a version set.   When I look at the meta data, it shows that people tags in the meta data are there.  The tags are not being copied over in the Catalog.   The Catalog has the place tags, and custom tags I use.   But people tags are lost on the new photo.   I have repaired the catalog.  I have gone over the settings more than few times looking for something relevant.   Google searches are turning up nothing current.Also happens if I edit a PSE file and save as a TIF file.

I have extensive collection of photos in Organizer (+50,000).   Many from been there since I started with Elements 3 and have been brought forward through many upgrades.  Many of the old ones are still in PSE format.   I started a project in Elements 12 of editing them and saving in TIF format.   Now in Elements 18 when I save the edited photo the people tags are dropped.   Other tags carry forward put not the People tags.   It seems the file format is not the issue because if I save as JPG or any other format they are still lost.   If I edit a TIF file and then save in version set the tags are still lost.What can I do to get this fixed?   Am I missing something?   Is this a bug in Elements?   Are others having this issue?Herb Smith

I select a file which has people tags associated with it.I do any edit using PE editorI save with a different nameGo back to organiserThe edited file is not shown at top of all mediafind it using file nameNONE OF THE PEOPLE TAGS THAT WERE ATTACHED TO THE FILE BEFORE EDITING ARE ATTACHED TO THE EDITED FILEI first posted this query in December 2017.

When exporting album photos in album order to a flashdrive I lose the sequence and get photos in undesired or random order.  Any Suggestions?

Trying to re-load Elements 10 (which I am used to and don't want to upgrade).  It almost completes installation but stops and uninstalls with Error 1935.  The help page for this error just recyles and doesn't answer.  Anyone help please?

How do I move a 'Named Person' to a 'Group'?Thank you,Chris

Hi. I've a canvas with 500 x 500 px with an element of 400 x 400 px. So there is a transparent space around the element. How can I trim the canvas automatically to the size of the element? In Photoshop there is an option like "trim to transparent pixels", but I can't find it in Elements. Thank for your help!

Der PSE 2022 Organizer stürzt laufend ab{Title edited by Moderator}

With PSE open, the Photo Bin icon (bottom left corner of screen) covers the Foreground/Back Ground selection: How to fix this?  

I made a solid color fade from dark at the top and lighter as it went to the bottom, (sending sample), now I can't find the effect to do it. Help? I'm on PS ver. 19. Thanks.

I continue to get duplicates of images with additional numbers like 1-1-1.  I'll have up to 10 images of the original image with different numbers added.  It seems to happen when I add photos to Elements but Elements will tell me some photos are already in Elements and those photos won't be added.  I do have several categories, for example WILDLIFE is a category that has sub-categories under it like Elk, Deer, Birds, etc.  Could this create the problem?  However, I get the same problem in FLOWERS where there are no sub-categories.  I had to restore my Elements and bring back all my photos from my hard drive and when I did this I accepted all the tags, so if photos were in a few different tags would this have caused all this duplication?  I know this is confusing but it takes me hours and hours to delete all these duplicates.  This shouldn't happen!
