When Reconnecting Missing Files, if one cancells the process in progress, do the files Reconnected in the partial process get saved, or all all lost. It's taking a long time to process, hours upon hours. 

Recently retired. My company computer had Photoshop on it and had to leave it there. Now I need to do a personal project requiring Photoshop Elements. Probably won't use it but a couple times a year. Trying to save money buying older version. My computer is a Dell Inspiron  with 11th generation intel i7 processor and 16 GB of memory and 1TB drive. So, I've got more than enough power to run Elements.

Thank you!I’ve downloaded the 7 day free trial version of Photoshop 25. It’s functional but not all of the features operate.Looking to find out if it’s because its a free trial.Thank you[moderator removed personal information]

Hi everyone, I apologise if this is an obvious question , I tried their online support bit who hadn't a clue what I was talking about and couldn't readily see a support email address to contact so this is my last resort !I was working with photoshop elements 2022 up on my mac up until the recent OS upgrade to Sonama which has caused a lot of problems with elements. A bit of research has revealed that my goose is likely cooked and that moving on to a higher version is the only option.  I had a look at the elements 2024 page and see that it is priced seperately as licence upgrade for 83 euro or buy outright for 102 euro. If it was possible to upgrade my current version to the new version then I would obviously do that instead of paying the more expensive price and so here is my question, is that what license upgrade means ? I cannot see it explained exactly what license upgrade means, is from 2022 to 2024 or is it from 2023 to 2024 only or does it mean something else ? Can anyo

Hi all, I am currently travelling and I am receiving an error message on Adobe Photoshop Elements as it is requesting a product key. As I am not at home I am unable to get the product key from the disc box. However, I do have proof that I purchased the physical disc. Any advice on how I am to receive a product key to use Photoshop? 

I've just upgraded from elements 2018 to 2025. I then converted my 2018 catalog. Then followed process (using drop down menu under tags) to copy tags info for 2018 to a folder, then to 2015. Result is that tags are visible in 2025, but no photos attached (but all the photos are there). Any help gratefully received. 

How to install a plug=in to Elements 2026 (if possible, more than one).  plus RAW.Thank you.

I use PSE 2025.  All of a sudden my type went to all caps ... even though I typed in both cases.  I selected the T tool and tried to reset it, to no avail.  I tried to reset all tools and many were reset, but not the type tool.   [Moved from the Using the Community forum (which is the forum for issues using the forums) by moderator]

Could anyone please help me?? I have a Windows 11 I downloaded Photoshop Elements 2005 I am on the 7 day trial run. I tried to print a card I made but everytime I would go and print it the project would just close out. If I can't get this program to print for me then I can't afford to waste money on this program. 

"The serial number xxxx-xxxx.... is already in use by the maximum number of computers. You need to deactivate the other computer or provide another serial number to use Photoshop Elements 2024 again."I have only used Elements on two computers, mine and my wife's. I had only used it on my PC and when it died and I waited for it to be repaired I used my wifes for a week. When my PC was repaired by replacing the motherboard it would no longer work. I deactived my wifes install, but it still won't activate. Adobe support says so sorry, buy a three year license for 2025. On the Adobe site it says I have no activated computers. I need my software back, I can't access my catalog much less work with the product. 

IS THERE A WAY TO CHANGE THE POSITION OF A PERSON IN A PHOTO

I just upgraded PSE to 2025 and also upgraded NIK Collection to 8.  NIK Collection is showing in my computer and I can use it as a stand alone program, but it is not showing up in my PSE 2025.  I have done all of the troublshooting that NIK provides and none of it has helped.  Has anyone else had this problem?  I'm so frustrated and don't know what to do.  Someone please help!!  I have checked my system info on PSE 2025 and it shows all of the NIK Plugins and beside each one it says "No version".  I have no idea what that means and why it would be there!  

I used to use Organizer on a daily basis and loved it (PSE 11).  I moved away from using it to organize - I don't remember why - and decided it was time to get back to finding things easier again.  Well, easy is apparently not available.  I dowloaded 2025 about two weeks ago and tried to get it to work.  It didn't give me options really - it just started to grab all the images on my computer.  I thought it would be okay and it would help me find duplicates and other issues... but then it stopped working.  It crashes if I look at too many folders or if I try to optimize or repair the catalog.  I can't find a way to search for duplicates.  It doesn't work at all.   So I try to contact support... ever tried that?  Yikes!  It's really hard to find a place to talk to a person, even after you try all the AI suggestions.  AI just gives up - doesn't offer an agent.  When I finally found a way to request an agent, I got

In the past few days Photoshop Elements crashes when I send print to Epson ET 8550.  It prints OK to my Epson WF2750.  I have checked for printer issues and the printer seems OK.  Every test points back to Photoshop.  

When I select either Premiere Element or Photo Shop Elements, it opens some type of home screen.  From that screen,  I select either the Photo Editor or Video Editor and it goes into an endless loop with this message: "Loading Adobe Primiere Elements Editor Workspace..."I have already ininstalled and reinstalled both programs and rebooted the computer several times.     

I recently used Project Indigo for my photos of my vacation.  I can open the DNG iles in the Camera RAW add-in, but once I adjust them, I can't send them to the PSE2025 editor using Open or Open as Copy.  I also can't save them in any other format than DNG.  When I finish editing and select Open (or Open as Copy), the PSE Editor says that Camera RAW isn't installed.  Which it is.  Both PSE2025 and CR are at the most current versions.  Also I am using a Macbook Pro with an Apple M4 Max chip running Sequoia 15.6.1.Does anyone have any suggestions?  I know that PI also gives me a .jpg, but I would rather use the DNG version of the file, if possible.  

Are Photoshop tutorials applicable to Photoshop Elements. I can't find any that say Photoshop Elements.

I am currently using a M1 MacBook Air but constantly get the spinning beachball. Does anyone else have this issue? Also thinking of upgrading to new Macbook Air with at least 16 Gb ram and concerned that I may have the same problem? 

I've had PE14 since I bought my Nikon D7100 10 years ago. I would like to get a better Nikon such as the D750. The requirement is to convert RAW images from the 750 using the free DNG converter so PE14 can read the DNG files. Is this possible with a D750 please? Being an occasional photographer it's not economically viable to buy / rent the latest versions of PE. If the D750 is not compatible which of the last DSLRs from Nikon are?

I had the 2020 version of Photoshop and Premiere Elements installed, and just upgraded to the new 2026 version. But now I still have the old and the new version running! As you can see in the screenshot the auto-creation is also running 2 x. How can I fix this?Is it safe to uninstall the 2020 version of both programms? 

Hi, guess I've tried every possible solution to resolve the print-problem, but nothing worked for me. Decided to try the 2026 demo-version, but I can't even pass the intro-screen....   Windows 11 with all the latest updates...   [Mod: Moved to the Photoshop Elements forum]  

Have recently transferred a large PSE Version 6 Catalogue into PSE 2025 and need advice on 2 issues.1) I don't want to use facial recognition, preferring to do this manually, so have switched it off, but before applying the "reset" button want to be sure that this will only remove people tags applied by facial recognition and won't effect those I imported as manually applied tags.2) Whilst wanting to continue with using the automatically generated place tags obtained from the picture metedata I would ideally like to separate these more effectively from those I apply in less detail manually. I noticed they come up in separate groups within place tags and tried to move my own applied place tags up into the Keywords section, but the system didn't seem to allow this. is there any other way I can achieve the required separation?Any help would be much appreciated.

Good morning, I'm looking for help installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 on a new PC with Windows 11. After a lot of effort, the installation was successful, but now it's asking me to register the product by logging in with my Adobe ID. Unfortunately, it no longer recognizes the email address I used to register in 2012. I have the software in its original box. What can I do? Thank you for your valuable help.
