Photoshop Elements

I've bought lately the 2021 Elements programs, Photoshop , Premiere and Organizer. My first action is to create a photo and video catalogue. In Organizer, I'm importing photos from folders and files in my computer.  I understand that the program should analyse the incoming photos and find faces and other particularities such as beaches, nature, ect.  I does'nt appear to do so. I don't know why. That is my question. Thanks, Claude Marcil, [email address removed by moderator]

I want to convert black & white photo to color but the option does not show on enhanced menu as Help says it should

I'm trying to do a simple two picture collage and the editor keeps crashing. Then I get a box that says, "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."  Sometimes it asks me if I would like to send a report to Adobe. When I try to see the issue if just references the Adobe privacy policy.  Can anyone help me with this issue? Thx!

I purchased PSE 2021 for download.  I am currently using PSE 14.  If I install PSE 2021, will I still be able to use PSE 14 until I am adept at PSE 2021? Thanks in advance for a reply,Tyna Headrick-Phipps

Object Removal panel is missing from Guided Basics (Photoshop Elements 2019, Ver. 17)I only see these nine panels, what happened to the Object Removal panel??

I recently purchased Photoshop Elements - necessitated by shift to 64 bit & obsolescence of my old Photoshop software (which served me well enough) - downloaded & installed on iMac Catalina. The icon is in the dock but every time I click on to open, Elements runs through the installation procedure again. The programme runs OK, but I'd like to know how to get the programme to recognise that it is installed, full stop, so I don't need to go through this routine again & again.

I want to know if anyone can explain something to me as I don't know why it is happening.  I take a photograph inside the house. I have a white background. The images look white when viewed in the camera after the shot is taken. After transfering the images from the camera's memory card to the computer ( Photoshop Elements ), they turn dark grey. Why is this happening?  I have Windows 10.

I'm using PE 14. Recently I have problems using the Auto Smart Tone. Nothing changed on my laptop. 8 gb RAM. But the program freezes when using it. Have to close the program and start it again. De- installed the program. Cleaned laptop. Installed the 2021 version ---- Same problem. Is there any solution for it?

I upgraded to Photoshop Elements 2020 a few months back and ever since all 39,000 photos on my mac can only be viewed in "grid" form. If I try to select one to view, I just get a big blank with a question mark. To add insult to injury, when I go on the website to get help, I'm told I dont have a product registered dispite the fact that I can find it on the Adobe website as registered. This is an epic fail and an absolute joke on the part of Adobe. I'd laugh about it and walk away from these products forever if I could only figure out how to restore my photos.

When I print images from my iMac to my Canon iP8750 the results are paler than the colourful images on screen. What should I do?

I make a picture using PSE and then want to post it on Facebook.  It comes out huge sometimes and other times it is a good size.  I have tried to change the pixels, the doc size and nothing seems to change when posted.  Does anyone know why this is or what I should be doing on size/pixels for it not to post HUGE?

When you open PDF inside elemets, is there a way to select all pages of document?  Thanks in advance.

I am new to Elements, but I have my pictures on my desktop and everytime I click on a picture to look at it to decide if I want to edit it it opens up in RAW editor on elements.  Is there a setting I can have to make this stop.  Yes I am shooting my photos in RAW but I just want to look at them without using the editor first.

Bonjour, quand je suis dans Organiseur, certain dossiers ne sont pas trouvable ou refuse l'importation..  

I have elements 2021 registered Windows 10 version and just tried to use Zoom Burst effect again, but now the "add focus area" does not work. It worked fine when I first intalled 2021 but now when I draw my focus line nothing happens.Does anyone have any suggestions or a fix for this aggravating problem?

I just got a new Mac and moved everything over from my old Mac, inluding Elements14.  It worked initially, but after the first time it wouldnt open any more.  I tried restarting the computer, but it just doesnt respond.  Tech support says that its no longer supported by Catalina and that I have to update to the new version.  However, the program continues to run fine on the other computer.  I don't really want to spend $100 on what is basically the same program and all tech support wants to do is sell me the new program.  Does anyone know a work around?

I have set the PTC-Tag CodedCharacterSet to UTF8 in all my files. Now I changed some tags in Photoshop Elements Organizer and saved the meta-data in the changed files. Then unfortuately the IPTC-Tag has been deleted. Has anyone an explanation why this happens? Is it possible, to change this behavoir?

Hi I am wondering if I am still able to update my photoshop element even though I have element 8. I do not if that is ok or it just been too long to do so. 

When using the "create" menu and selecting collage I can't figure out how to increase the picture resolution. I am combining three 24MP images and when I go to save my project as JPEG I realize the file has been reduced to 1800x1200 300 DPI. I want to print a canvas so this is way too small. The ability to resize in the image from "image" menu is also greyed out and not able to be selected. 

I have been using elements 18 with no problems until I started playing around with fun edits in the guided edits section-its quite fun to see what it can do but now the paint brush will not work !! everything else works but not the paint brush-SSSOOOO what is the problem-anybody else have this issue ?? its very frustrating since I had an idea I was working on and now am stuck...

I just installed Adobe Premier Elements and Photoshop Elements 2021, and neither will open.  I tried opening a picture with "open with" then choosing Photoshop Elements 2021, but it still won't open.  I am running Windows Version 10.  Any advice/help is appreciated!

I just bought a Canon 6D mark II camera and although it is suppose to be accepted with elements, especially because my updates are all up to date, it keeps saying I still need an update. I tried downloading an adobe dng converter but that didn't do anything. I shouldn't have to even convert anything and I'm at a loss as to what to do. Can someone please help me figure out how to open my photos in camera raw so I can edit them?? Thank you 

Just purchased and installed the latest Photo Shop Elements and Premier Elements so that I can add place tags to my collections. But cant find how to do it any help appreicated.

I recently had to switch to PSE 11 from my ancient PSE 2 because I upgraded to Win 10 and PSE 2 doesn't work in 10.   There is an issue with PSE 11, though.  If I have the program maximized and I click on the very edge of the screen (any edge, top, bottom, left, right), it drops out of 11 and to whatever program is under it.  This is VERY annoying. It is as though the apparently full screen view is missing some pixels at the edge that allow me to click on whatever is beneath it. This only happens in PSE 11, not Firefox or whatever. This is on a new Windows 10 machine running a U28E590 monitor.  Settings says the display is 1090p but advanced settings says it's running at 4k.  The video card is a 3080.

Hello people! After starting PSE19 I see a brief loading animation on my mouse cursor, but PSE19 does not start. In the Windows 10 task manager, however, I see that PSE19 has started. My PC meets all the requirements for PSE19 and I have already worked with the program. However, the surface has recently stopped loading. I've already reinstalled PSE, but it didn't work. I am a little loss what that could be?
