Photoshop Elements

I searched around for this topic for a while, but couldn't find the exact issue I'm having. So, I apologize if it's already been answered. I'm pretty new to Premiere and editing in general. Up until recently I have been editing in 1080p, and just made the decision to start filming and editing in 4k. The issue I'm having suddenly is with pre-rendering my timeline while editing. I do a lot of timelapse, so I learned quickly that the "red bar" on the timelime means you need to render it to get rid of all the choppiness to see the preview clearly. I had no problem with this when I was editing 1080p. But now with 4k, Elements will no longer pre-render. Whenever I try, the playhead will just jump to the beginning of the timelime and auto play. It does appear that exporting will render it like it normally would. I just can't render in my timeline while editing. I've selected "QFHD 16x9 29.97" as my editing preset when opening a new project, which gives me "Red Cinema" as my edi

Just installed Photoshop Elements 2022 Organizer to sort photos and have imported over 130,000 images.  Most are *.jpg files and not huge files.  I'm missing thumbnails in folders.  Prior to using PSE software, I'd put photo in 1 folder by Month/Year and copy the photos for printing to another folder with wider date range (where I'd print).  I'm finding Thumbnails missing from the folder with Month/year but may be in other folder for printing.  I'd like thumbnails for these pictures to show up in both places.  As far as i can tell, I have not turned on any filters.  During the process, I created My Catalog, Optimized, and Repaired it (and backed up just the structure at 13 GB).  This has not fixed the problem.  Should the software be able to display a thumbnail in 2 or more folders if photo is in multipe locations?   Any guidance would be appreciated.

After many years use I’ve suddenly received message “photoshop album cannot run because of missing or invalid registration information. Please reinstall”. But if I Reinstall will the thousands of photos I’ve catalogued in Album still be catalogued, or will I lose them. I know will still have originals in photo files, but don’t want to have to start from scratch transferring them all into Album again! 

Can anyone shed light on the possibility of installing PSE4.0 on my MacBook Air with Big Sur 11.6.2? I used to have it on a MacBook from 2008 which doesn't come back to life anymore. I still have the installation  CD-ROM with a serial number if that helps. I am trying to install from that CD-ROM. <serial number removed> While installing, a message shows up that there was a problem with the installation and that I should contact the manufacturer of the software. The installation cannot be completed.

I went to use File Info on a photo tonight and am being blocked. The error message is "Could not complete the File Info command because the Metadata library could not be loaded."I get the same message on every photo when I try to access the File Info.I have not done anything new or loaded any new software lately. Any thoughts on how to fix this? I'm using Adobe Photoshop Elements 2018 on Windows 10 Home version 2004 on a Dell PC.I've tried resetting the preferences and uninstalling and reinstalling the software. Same error message.

HiI am new to Photoshop Elements, and I have a question, hope some of you have the answer.I am trying to create some images with uniform canvas size of 1024x1024 and the picture itself should fill 90 % of the canvas size and white is 10% of the canvas size.Is this possible to do in Photoshop Elements? See attached from how its done in Photoshop

Just bought new laptap and purchased PSE 2021 (used to have PSE 2012).  The size of the font of the folder names in the panel on the left hand side in organiser is so small.  Can I fix this?  I tried the resizing to 200% in the Editor which was far too big and didn't fix my issue in the Organiser.  Has anyone successfully managed to fix the Organiser issue?  Is there anyway of scaling the font size to a comfortable size to view rather than too large or too small?  Otherwise I fear PSE is going to be unusable on my new laptop. 

Does anybody know the default location of the backup in Photoskop Elements 2022 - and how to change this location? 

Question regarding the Organizer - Albums - Album OrderI use this constantly.  soemtimes I wish to move the pictures for my website.  In Album Order, it sometimes shows numbers on the left hand side, but these quickly just disappear.  How Can I show the numbers of the photos.  Thanks.

In Elements 2020, I am trying to upload HEIC photos from my iPhone.   The instructions said to download an extension, which I did, and then clean media cache with Elements closed.  I don't know how/where to do this.  HELP!   [Moving from generic Start/Help forum to the specific Program forum...

The Foreground/BAckground Color Button is missing from my recently downloaded Photoshop Elements 2022

If you print a photo you can add "date", "description" and "filename" information. If the "description" is longer then the "photo" the description is "cut", it should in that case instead be printed in two rows or more.//Christer

Hi everyone, I have Adobe Elements 2019.A problem has occurred in my organiser where my images have become blurred when viewed in full screen mode. This does not occurr with the latest images. The last few years are all ok but beyond that all the images are blurred in full screen view.If I delete the blurred images and get the photos again from my files, they are ok, but I really don't want to do this with all the thousands of images I have in my organiser.I hope someone can come to my help and solve this problem for me.Many thanks in anticipation.Keith

Hello! I downloaded and installed the English Photoshop Elements 2022 trial (Windows) I want to buy the software/key but want to keep everything in English. The activation code is cheaper here in Germany than anywhere else (50 EUR). However, it seems as if the activation code is bound to a language? Does anyone know if I can buy the German activation key and use it for activating within my English trial version? Thanks!

Hello. Thank you for your help. I purchased the attached via my Adobe Stock subscription. I did so with the intention of setting it on top of another graphic I created to arrive at a final creation whereby my piece would have the "ripped or torn through" effect. I am hoping one can direct me step x step in achieving this outcome. I thank you for your time and assistance.

My photoshop keeps crashing. Here's what I have done to make an attempt to solve this issue: - I've updated the app- I've updated my tablet- I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app- I've deleted photos in my storage None of those methods, however, have worked. Any other ideas? Thanks in advance for any tips and help. 

I need to change lots of jpg/jpeg or png files to a svg. Can any PSElements do this? If not, which product can?Thanks!

I continue to have problems with PSE 19. When I click on the Photoshop Elements 2021 application icon, the app opens to a blank screen. I tried downloading the program again, but after a download, when I click on the dmg file, I get an error that says "no such file or directory." Then, I tried to uninstall and reinstall, but the Uninstall application in the Support files folder won't open. What should I do?

Hi! I'm new in PSE. I recently bought PSE 2022 and noticed that in the Organiser when using the Save Metadata to File option (Ctrl + W) my original photograph is delete and another one with the metadata saved is create. Someone can explain me why.   You need to ask program questions in the forum for the program you are usingTo ask in the forum for your program please start at https://community.adobe.com/Moving from Using the Community (which is about the forums) to the correct forum...

Why is this more than 2-year old post pinned to page 1?? 

Windows 11,Photoshop Elements 2021 OrganizerNach dauerhaft problemlosem Einsatz des Organizers erhalte ich heute beim Öffnen des Organizer die Meldung: "Elements Organizer ist derzeit nicht lizenziert. Starten Sie Photoshop Elemets Editor, um die Lizensinformationen zu aktualisieren." Beim Start des Editor sehe ich keine Möglichkeit die Aktualisierung vorzunehmen. Wie kann ich das machen? Ein mehrfaches Schließen und wieder Öffen des Programms brachte keine Lösung.
