Photoshop Elements

I noticed this feature which, the last time I looked years ago, didn't work.  Could someone verify this is correct?  Name tags, whether generated as face recognition or user input, are written when you use the write metadata to file.

Hi.  So has anyone figured out how to work around the little blue box that outlines your photos on the print screen?  I have always been able to move the photos on the page to where I want it to print.  I make a lot of 5x7 cards.  Have always put in a custom size for my paper, then moved the image to the bottom half of the paper to be printed.  I cannot get the blue box to move.  Is there a different setting I need to be using?  A way to disable that??  Thank you for any suggestions.  I have the latest version.  

As I type in photoshop elements 2023, the text is not updating as I type and I have to commit to the changes in order for it to show. It's really annoying me and has only started happening a few weeks ago. I found someone with a similar issue on the full photoshop but I don't think it's the same fix.

How do I make the man image (in the attached example) look more naturally in the hallway, rather than being copied and pasted onto it (which it was)? Thanks.

I recently bought an Adobe pack containing the latest versions of Adobe Photoshop elements and Adobe Premiere elements.The Adobe premiere element has installed successfully but the Photoshop keeps on showing error code 103.Please, kindly assist

Is it possible to use Photoshop Elements 2024 on two computers (not at the same time) with the photos stored on OneDrive?  I have a desktop and a laptop.  Each computer would connect to the Pictures folder on OneDrive.  They would/should share the same catalog.  My desktop has a large number of pictures that have accumulated over the years from backups of old computers and copied from friends.  I would like to slowly add these to the OneDrive and then catalog and edit from my laptop.  I have looked at various posts and I'm not sure Photoshop Elements is the best choice for this project.  But I have used it in the past and am most familiar with the interface.Thanks for your help.

Just installed ( and reinstalled) PSE 2025.  It would not accept the backup catalogue from our 2020 PSE, so we imported the photo's from the catalogue.  They all came in ( twice). We waited until the system had csccanned all the faces ( 13,000 itmes) and when I tried to access a photo. all the photo's disappeared exept a video that came in from our camera recently. Not sure how it got there.    So--two installations, two complete losss of all photos!!!  VERY disappointing!! We even bought a newer computer to handle the higher level OS --15.1)  See specs below.  PSE does not crash. It stays open. Just the photo's disappear!    We have used PSE for multiple years and multiple versions. Never had this problem.  We have PSE 2020 on this computer and it still works. I have never seen that happen in any photo program.    We have 300 GB free on the SSD.    Elements Organizer 25.0.0.0Core Version: 25.0 (20240913.EO.de52

I have a network drive (which could be my issue) that hostes all my photo's.  When using organizer to rotate photo's it bogs down after 2 or 3 attempts.  Anyone have an issue with this?

My HP TE01-1022 (specs fine for PSE) was originally running Photoshp Elements 18 (2020). PSE was installed via disk with activation code when the PC was new, about 3 years ago. PSE ran without any problems. Recently, there was a storm, and the PC crashed. The PC was repaired with a new motherboard (same as original). The PC is now running latest Windows 11 23H2, the most recent Edge and Firefox, updated dirivers, updated apps. Just about all apps were easily re-installed; some from disks, others from internet downloads, with all working fine. However, when I go to reinstall PSE via the disk, I get the drop down alert from Adobe stating that I should "Update your browser," and could go no further with the installation. As far as I can tell, as everything is fully updated, why this alert?  I have read and re-read this Adobe link (https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/update-operating-system-and-browser.html), but unfortunately, I'm still at a loss as how to get PSE 2020 on

Hallo Community,am WE habe ich versucht Photoshop Elelements 2019 (Ver. 17) unter Windows 10 neu u installieren. Bin direkt am Anfang der Installationsroutine gescheitert bei folgender Fehlermeldung "Browser aktualisieren". Beim recherschieren habe ich herausgefunden das wohl zwingend der Microsoft Explorer 11 nötig ist, dieser wurde aber vor Jahren eingestellt und nicht mehr unterstützt, mit "Edge" hat auch nicht funktioniert.Ich perönlich finde das schon ein Armutszeugnis von Adobe das die Installation nur mit einen bestimmten Browser funktioniert. Hat jemand ähnliche Erfahrungen gemacht, oder noch besser eine Lösung???Chatten mit den Profis von Adobe hat leider auch nichts gebracht.Im voraus vielen Dank,  Thomas

I have an ancient Adobe Photodeluxe program that will not run on windows 10. It has a great feature that allowed you to select a background color, click on the image and you have a new background color. I now use Elements 15 and don't see an easy way like that to change color. Is there one or is there a way to make my old program run on windows 10ThanksJohn

I previously used Photoshop Elements to put on a few computers that didn't need the high-powered editing that Creative Cloud has, mostly just text editing and whatnot, and I just bought a 2025 license and it's making me deactivate other PCs when in the past, all I needed for Elements was a license key. Did something change? I can't seem to use Elements 2025 without being forced to deactivate my own personal Creative Cloud.

I cut out the border on the snowman and then did something to it to put a red ring around the box.  I can't remember how I did this.  I need to do it on a couple more images.  I'm using Element 2021.  Can someone tell me how to do this? Norma

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements Organizer 2024. No matter what I do, I am not able to stop the Auto Creation code from launching in the background, consuming 100% of PC resources. I tried to check it off in the preferences and removed it from the startup. Nothing stopped this useless for me, but I was heavy on resource code from running. Please help.

I recently updated my late 2014 Mac mini to Monterey 12.7.6 and since then Photoshop elements 12 crashes. The first time elements opened and allowed me to add text to a photo. It crashed when i tried to save the project. Now it will launch but crash when I click anywhere on the screen.  I have checked SECURITY & PRIVACY > ACCESSIBILITY and Photoshop Elements is still ticked. Any clues or help to resolve this would greatly appreciated .   [Mod: Moved to the Photoshop Elements forum]  

I've been using Elements 12 along with Photoshop CS6 by selecting a photo in Elements' Organizer and then tapping the Ctrl + H keys. Using this shortcut would immediately load Photoshop and the image would appear for editing. This worked great. A year+ ago I upgraded my PS CS6 to Photoshop 2024 and the Ctrl + H shortcut stopped working. So, does anyone know if this shortcut works using a newer version of Elements? I would upgrade my Elements in a flash if I knew the shortcut had been restored. 

I need to increase the size of the words on the task bar so I can see them.  Can someone tell me how to do this?  TYIA

How do I stop these annoying pop-ups, bottom left of the workspace, trying to sell further photoshop enhancements?

When using Magnetic Lasso how do I stop it jumping across picture instead of following the course I am trying to lasso? It appears to guess what I am trying to do and lasso's portion I do not want to be included. I then have to delete portion and try again to lasso what I want. It then ofter jumps again without me moving the mouse. I use an iMac 2024 M3 with Sequoia 15.0.1 OS.

I've heard/read that Photoshop Elements 2025 does not work on WIN PCs. Is this true? I have the .exe file for 2021 but was unable to fully install it. I would love to have the 2025 version instead. Any/all suggestions/advice is appreciated! RochelleM

I use the dimensions 560 px by 420 px almost exclusively, and Elements used to remember them. Now I see them when I open the first file, but as soon as I open a second file they change to the dimensions of the new file. Is there a way to stop this change from taking place, like Elements used to work?Please see attached.

Older versions of Photoshop elements had a posterize filter. It was so simple and adjustable. Now this filter is missing, and the ones available are clunky and not very adjustable. Is there some way to apply a similar effect in the current version? This filter used to separate areas of a picture into flattened shapes   [Moving from generic Start/Help forum to the specific Program forum...

PSE 2021 I thoughr I could use layers to select subject, apply edit to it on separate layer, background unchanged. But frustration, bc saved image file makes backround transparent. This seems wicked since image on screen, with background layers visible, does not reveal it! You would never know you have not saved complete image with backround until you open it in another program.Web for help is useless bc 100% of posts are about REMOVING background. I don't want to remove it!So I'm thinking this does not behave like all other selections do. Very different & no warning. Is this "intelligent" -- artificial or otherwise?Color me Red.

Guten Morgen, leider habe ich seit gestern probleme mit Photoshop seit dem ich camera raw installiert habe öffnet sich Photoshop nicht mehr. Es öffnet sich nur noch dieses Fenster wo ich dann zwischen Photoshop und Premiere wechseln könnte. Premiere funktioniert tadenlos aber Photoshop öffnet angeblich aber leider passiert hier nicht weiteres außer das es läd und dann wieder aufhört. Vielen Dank im Voraus.
