Questions

I just purchaced Photoshop Elements 2025, downloaded it, selected the location for the file, and when it finishes "installing", it takes me to a menu where I select either the organizer, photo editor or video editor. I don't have access to the video editor, which is fine, I didn't want it. If I try to open the organizer it tells me to launch the photo editor to start my free trial. Here is where my problem lies. I launch the photo editor and it is acting like I haven't purchased the software. A pop-up states that I can "start my free trial". Every other time I launch the application it will actually tell me that if I bought it that I can "get started". When I click that option it goes back to the "start free trial" option. I only have one account. I have tried logging out and in again but nothing is changing. I always have issues with Adobe and I'm starting to get annoyed. Please help.

when I open adjustment panel while editing, it blink on and off like a short in a lamp. fix? 

Hallo! Ich habe auf meinem alten PC Photoshop Elements 6 installiert. Leider habe ich keinen Zugriff mehr auf die Fotos dort. Bekomme ich die Fotos irgendwie zu Photoshop Elements 2024, wenn ich ich das Programm auf dem neuen PC installiert habe?

after a new Win 11 install on my pc. everything works fine, but i cannot install PSE 2021. After about 14% i became the error 183. Any idea?thanksJose

While working with PSE 2024, somenow the tools column switched from a double column to a single column. The result was that I could not access some tools and this disrupted my workflow. I could not see any way to change it back to the default view. In the end I reset al preferences and that fixed the problem. Does anyone know why this might have hapened? if it ever happens again, is there an easier way to get back to the default view without resetting all preferences? Kind regardsChris  

My photoshop elements 11 is no longer opening on my iMac, it just bounces up and down and then a box comes up asking me to sign in to use this application on this computer with Apple ID and password, which I do and then it just doesn't open.  Please please help me, I need elements to run my small business and it's been like this for 2 weeks. I've contacted Adobe but no help at all. 

Made a 7 picture collage in landscape mode from one of the loaded templates. I want to take that collage and import it into  a blank 8 x 10 page with a background color and import the collag onto it with text. How do I go about doing thisThank youMec4cast

I have a perpetual license of Elements 2022.  It appears as a registered product under my Adobe account and has a download link.  I am upgrading to a new computer.  Once I download the .exe installer file to the new computer and run it, I get the initial question (language and install directory) and then it appears to start the install.However, once the progress bar gets to 2%, the installation fails with error 113, unable to connect to the Adobe server.I have followed every TS step I can find on the Adobe website (turn off antivirus, turn off firewall, use a different browser, etc, etc, etc) and nothing works. At this point I am thinking that there is, in fact, no server for the installer to connect to. Any information or advice, anyone? Thanks!

I file my images according to Year NNMonth Day; so my tree inside the Organizer looks something like this:SEE ATTACHED IMAGEMy QUESTION is:  If one of the subfolders (in this case, the 1981 folder) is empty, it doesn't seem to show up in my Catalog Tree. If I don't see a Year folder in the tree, I try to make a new folder and PSE tells me the folder already exists. HOW do I "see" the folder IN PSE so I can sort my images into the proper Year folder?    

Considering purchasing a new computer, curious about compatibility.    I believe I saw Windows 11, but I wasn't sure about the *PRO* version though?

Hello, I have a Photoshop Elements 2022 (PE2022) license purchased in November 2021. After resetting my Windows 11 PC, I had to reinstall PE2022, but it didn't work (error: MSVCR120.DLL is missing). I have the following question: if I purchase an upgrade license from PE2022 to PE2025, for €82.35, will it be possible to upgrade WITHOUT installing PE2022, since installing PE2022 is impossible? Thank you for your attention.

I noticed this just a few minutes ago--- You are taken to a download page with a bunch of info on downloading. 

I want to add my mark to photos so no one can take it off, is this possible with PSE 2024? 

I just bought Elements 2024, when I'm viewing two pictures side by side the Edit and the Organize windows always pop up. I can close them but next time they appear again. How to disable this feature, I do not want these windows pop up at all.

Hello guys,Is there a way how to add pen tool to my Photoshop Elements 2024?I am completely lost without it.Thanks in advance for any help.  

I bought Photoshop Elements 2024 off the Windows Store, but every time I open it it keeps asking me to connect to the internet and sign in with my Adobe ID. If I have paid for Photoshop Elements I should be able to use it without having to connect to the internet (as this wasn't in term and conditions, will Adobe refund me?) and surely I shouldn't have to keep signing in with my Adobe ID? It's nothing to do with cookies, I've not changed any settings. Is this just a way for Adobe to force an upgrade to 2025 to increase there profits?Where I wouldn't encase this happens in the 2025 version. If any one else has this problem and can help me please comment below, I would be keen to see if Adobe bury or lock this post, no doubt their soloution will be because of cookies. Thanks, Peter. System Windows 11, AMD Ryzen 5, 16gb Ram. 

Adobe Elements 2019.  When I try to run updates, i get "updates have been disabled for this machine. Please contact your administrator"Windows 10, the adobe update service is running. I get a prompt saying there is an update available when I launch elements Organizer, but when I click install, i get that message.  I've looked in registry and cant figure out where this block is coming from?

Help,I just purchased Photoshop + Premiere Elements 2025... I have the 2021 version running just fine.  I want to use my 2021 catalogs in 2025, but they don't show up when I press "convert".. how I have 5 catalogs that include over 100,000 photos... how do I get them into 2025??

We have been using pse 5 for years on the windows 10. No problems.It is not connected to the internet to prevent viruses.Today the photo bin keeps closing!.Repaired, no change.Uninstalled and reinstalled from disc . No change!Ideas anyone?Thanks.

My PSE 2019 catalog contained many places in a hierarchy of Country/Provice/City/Street etc. After converting to PSE 2022 some of the lowest level names were converted to the new map-based type tags but without a map location but the higher level grouping tags (Country/Provice etc.) were converted to events. I have been able to place the lowest level places on the map but when I put, say, an event-type Country on the map it still appears as an Event (under the Places category). However, it also seems to have map data and in some images the tags include both Place and Event versions. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much.

On my new Windows 11 Desktop computer I have all my photos saved and synced through OneDrive.   The OneDrive Folder is on my 😧 Drive and under folder DATA.  The pictures are then in a subfolder from the main OneDrive Folder.  I actually have Multiple Catalogs with folders separated into folders.So CatalogSubject1 with pictures inD:/Data/OneDrive/Pics in Organizer/Subject1CatalogSubject2 with pictures inD:/Data/OneDrive/Pics in Organizer/Subject2The pictures are then in Directory Trees under each subject based on original file organization.  So not a flat folder scenario. Now on the new PC all pictures and folder structures are completely copied and setup becuase OneDrive has been installed and is fully synced.So how do I move the catalogs in this scenario which are still located on the previous PC.   I'd prefer not to do a full copy of all pictures into another folder and then delete the already synced pictures. I feel like I ran int

Although a longtime user of Photoshop, a bit new to Elements. I am looking to create a large sized canvas with a number of photos brought together (all being the same size) - what would the best option be to do this? I create the canvas size when I bring in my first image and resizing it, but things get a little sticky after attempting to move the image to another area and then bring in additional images. Thanks for any input!

I have just bought an R5 Mkii which has raw files CR3 from a 5d Mkiv that has raw files of CR2, when I try and open the CR3 images in Photoshop Elements 2024 I keep getting a message to install the camera raw plugin which I've done but the files still wont load. I've downloaded the latest version of camera Raw and also reinstalled PE 2024 but I keep getting the same message. Also the Camera Raw version in PE doesn't change to the new version. Am I missing something?

Elements Organiser 2025 has an Auto Sync (Beta) feature that I am unable to deactivate: the Auto Sync preferences settings are always being reset to on! Is there a fix to stop uploading and deactivate Auto Sync? If so, how can I apply it - my update option is greyed-out!
