Cant Find any CYMK options

Hello!

I am currently trying to convert a number of my photos to CYMK from RGB, and there were a number of ways to accomplish this online, such as:

>>Image> Convert Profile > CYMK.

However, the problem comes when I try to do that. When I go to change profile, there are only two options under convert profile AND it doesn't pop up as a small windows such as in the tutorial videos I have found. Instead it is another drop down and the options are: Delete profile, convert to sRBG, and convert to Adobe RBG.

I believe this is the information needed from the Help drop down; however if I'm wrong just let me know:

Adobe Photoshop Elements Version: 11.0 (11.0 (20120830.r.32025)) x32

Operating System: Windows 8 64-bit

Version: 6.2

If anyone can answer my question on HOW TO convert it an image to CYMK with this info, please let me know.

    is just plain photoshop different than Photoshop Elements?

    Yes very different, it has full support for CMYK conversions. If you don't have Photoshop there are other ways of making the conversion. If the image is going to be placed in an InDesign page layout the conversion can happen on an export to PDF.

    Elements doesn't have CMYK support, you'll need Photoshop

    You don't say why you want to convert to CMYK.
