Photoshop Elements

I have  had  conversation with folks  in the  Photoshop forum where  I was  told that if  the  user  has photoshop elements it is  impossible to using the  masking option, in that it simply will not work.I can verify this  because  I have  used  elements for  several years  and  have  had  zero success.I was  told  this morning from a  source  outside the  forums  that this  is  an Adobe  marketing strategy where information is  deliberately supressed so that the  user is  forced tobuy into a  monthly premium to have  this  tool work proerly.SO, PSE  users.. if  you are having zero success with masking in Elements... this  is  why! 

I have encountered an issue with trying to install Photoshop Elements 12 on the new computer with Windows 10.The program got installed but appears to be in a miniaturized version - not scaling properly to the screen.Please see the screenshots below My display resolution is 3840x2400. The Photoshop Elements settings in Display & Cursors don't have option to change to the high resolution display settings.Is there any way to make this work?I would appreciate if one can suggest a way to fix it without just going for the newer version of the software.Thank you and kind regards

I am trying to get through my GUI problems.  I havent found a way to turn off or undock the bar at the bottom of the main window ( the one with photo bin and undo redo)  I thought if I could view the image full screen it would help me see it better.  I have tried F11 with no luck.  Any help would be welcome.

I want to upgrade my Photoshop software from the 6 version.  If I buy and install Photoshop 2021 on my computer will all of my files transfer to the new software?

I am using MacOS 10.15 and Elements 2021. When I installed the app, going to the Graphics panel - all of the available choices do not download. I have tried to download them but get this error message. I am connected to the internet. No matter what time of day, if it is the server, it is never available!How do I get the missing backgrounds to load?  Thank you.

I am having trouble setting up access to my Elements catalog across multiple devices so I can access and make updates from either device and have them automatically sync. Is this not possible with the newest version of Elements? Our desktop computer is finally giving up the ghost, so my wife and I are finally joining the 21st century and using centralized cloud storage (Office 365 and OneDrive) so we can access/update/sync the same shared files from individual laptops that have limited local storage. I assumed we would be able to do this with the latest version of Elements, but that does not seem to be the case. I can't get Elements to recognize the catalog I've copied to OneDrive as the default location for updates, and it wants me to re-connect every photo (>24,000) on another device even though the file paths to their location in OneDrive have already been set on one device. I’m also nervous about how much local storage this reconnecting eats up, and it doesn’t seem like changes

Hello !in December 2018, I bought and installed Photoshop Elements 2019 - Windows 64 bits on my PC, using an Adobe package including 2 DVDs (1 for Windows + 1 for Mac OS) and a valid Serial Number.I decommissioned this PC some days ago and I wish to install this Photoshop Elements 2019 release using the same Serial Number, but my newer PC has no DVD reader. On the Adobe Web site, I can't find the link to Photoshop Elements 2019 - Windows 64 bit Release. => Could you please send me the corresponding link? Thank you very much. Ben (bvellieu@yahoo.com)

I just purchased and installed PSE 2021 (an app I've use in many versions, going back many years). Apparently, the Adobe Creative Cloud app was downloaded and installed at the same time. It has slowed my machine to a crawl, and is continuously running processess in the background, apparently thinking I want to use lots of Creative Cloud apps. When I tried to uninstall CC, it warned me that I would lose access to all my Adobe products. I'm guessing this doesn't include PSE, since it is a stand-alone purchase.Can I uninstall the Adobe Creative Cloud app without harming Photo Shope Elements 2021?Thanks 

very frustrated with support.  I find that I am having to go to youtube to find out how to do things.  Is there a way in elements 2021 to undock windows in expert mode?  For example,  to have a floating navigator window.Thanks 

Where can I find the place in Photoshop Elements to work with green screen? 

Hi,I recently upgraded to PSE 2019, but I still can't get the "Places" map to work or show any of my photos by location, neither in "Pinned" or "UnPinned" view. I used to have PSE14, and the "Places" worked fine there, for a while, until they didn't anymore. I have been searching the Forums to see if anyone else has the same problem, but all I can find is information saying the "Places" function doesn't work anymore with versions PSE18 and older, and recommendations to upgrade to 2019 as there is a new Map service provided there: Well I've upgraded, but still can't get it to work! I'm using Windows 10 Home - 2018. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 🙂

HelloI have a new computer.  On the old computer, I did a backup of the catalog to an external hard drive using photoshop elements.  I noticed that the file format on the catalog backup drive didn't "look" like photos, so I also did a separate backup simply copying the photos to an (different) external hard drive.  On the new computer, do I need to copy the photos onto it and then restore the catalog in elements?  Or do i just restore the catalog using elements.

HelloOn my old computer, my wife and I had separate accounts, and we each had a catalog.  On the new computer, for various reasons we've decided we don't need separate accounts, but we do want to keep the two catalogs separate.  Do I just install photoshop elemetns on the new computer, restore on catalog from the backup, and then create a second catalog and restore the other catalog to that?  On the old computer they were both called "main catalogue". 

All of my photos were moved from a hard drive to a solid state drive on the same computer. Now in Organizer my catalog is still there but all of the photo files are disconncted.   How can I point the catalog to the new file location to reconnect the photos en masse? The files are in the same folder structure on the new drive. I do not have a backup of the catalog before the files were moved. I am using Photoshop/Premier 2020 Bundle.  Thanks.

I recently moved from Elements 9 to 2021.What is recommended to do with my Version 9?  Do people keep older versions or uninstall them? Are there any pros or cons, or is it just a matter of personal preference?What happens to all the settings in the Organizer of the older Version when the new Organizer is installed?

I am so disappointed in PSE Organizer 2021.  The font size in the tags and info pane on the right hand side of the screen are so small they are practically unreadable for these aging eyes and with new glasses no less.  I have tried all the suggestions I have found on here about increasing the font size and nothing seems to change.PSE 2021 is installed on a Dell Inspiron 14 using Windows 10.If I can't change this font size it looks like I have just wasted $100.00.

Da questa mattina non posso più utilizzare "Contact Sheet..." Ho reinstallato Photoshop Elements 2021 ma mi ridà lo stesso errore

Just installed PSE 2021 and uninstalled/installed the appropriate extensions per the support article but PSE STILL will not import HEIF files.  Any more suggestions? https://helpx.adobe.com/in/premiere-elements/using/hevc-decoding-on-windows.html

I got a new macbook air and want to download my photoshop elements 12 to it.  Any recommendation on how ? 

I just took the plunge into adobe products.  Quite a bit of frustration so far.  I have a small laptop with a high definition display. There seems to be no way to change the size of the menu bars.  I did some searching on the net and there were ways to achieve this with manifest files and editing the registry etc. I simply want to to have a ui scaling between 100 and 200%.  I am using the latest windows 10 and elements 2021.  I have trouble even with reading glasses seeing the menu at 100% and with a setting of 200% the menus are huge and there is no window left to do any work.Anyone have any suggestions?Thanks

Can I load more than one action at a time in PSE21 or do I have to install individually?  I have alot of actions and it would take so much time to load them.

Bonjour, est-il possible de lancer directement l'éditeur de photos au départ d'une icône sur le bureau sans passer par l'écran de choix d'activité ?

ik gebruik al enige jaren photoshop en nu photoshop elements 2019 oficieel aangeschaft eind 2018 maar nu krijg ik sinds een aantal dagen steeds de melding op het scherm dat ik met de proefversie werk en moet kopen anders vervalt het gebruik. mijn vraag is nu hoe kan dit met een programma wat ik al meer dan een jaar zonder probleem gebruik nu ineens gebeuren?

I am using Photoshop Elements 2021 on my brand new HP Envy Laptop and the Organizer pushes a dialog box to save my catalog. When I answer with Yes it shows a message box with the text "Loading" and nothing more happens, even after many hours waiting. The task is still using CPU and GPU Power. The same behaviour when I try to create a dia Show, loading and nothin else happens. I already updated my graphics driver NVIDIA GTX 1660 Ti and tried the same with disabling the Nvidia graphic card. Same result - It is still not working.Can anyone help me please?Thanks
