How to convert 'point text' to 'paragragh text' and vice versa in Photoshop Elements 2023.

Hello everyone,I'm currently using macOS Tahoe 26 on my Mac mini (M4) and tried to install Photoshop Elements 21. Unfortunately, the program won't launch; instead, I just get a message saying the version isn't supported.Has anyone managed to get Elements 21 to work on macOS Tahoe 26? Are there any workarounds, or is upgrading to a newer version the only option?Thank you for your help!Best regards,Patrick

Well, now I know what it is......HOW do I open it?

I have a license for photoshop elements v 15 and premiere elements 15 from years ago. I had this on several Windows based desktops. I now have a mac and I’d like to install the 2 packages there. Do those programs run on Mac?Are the downloads still available?Should I look at renewing with more modern software? Recommendations for low cost. I do photo and video editing.Thanks in advance.

The Save and Save As dialogs use the Windows file dialogs. The Save for Web dialog does not and instead uses what is by now an ancient dialog. This makes it difficult to know which folder PSE is going to save to and also makes navigation more difficult.If memory serves, there used to be a Preference allowing the user to chose which File dialog to use. That’s obviously no longer present.All file dialogs should be the same.

I used version 9 forever, purchased a new pc ans the serial number is not longer valid. So I downloaded the trial version of 2026. Im not a heavy user of the software but I make cards for family and friends and I like some of the photo editing functions. So when I went to create a greeting card it gave me a number of preset options but no blank card. I did after some research find that you had to select a card then remove and and all graphic on it. It seem like a laborious task. Why is there no blank card option in create a greeting card? 

My pc crashed and am trying to restore my back up file to the new pc, however on the new pc it is looking for a .tly file when my other pc saved the back up as a .buc file.  How can I correct this.

Elements 2026 keeps printing to my HP office printer instead of my Canon PRO-300. I'm dead in the water, can't print photos. I've disabled Windows Management, reinstalled the Canon software twice, reset Preferences in Elements, nothing helps.

I just got a new computer with Windows 11. I loaded Photoshop Elements 2024 on it from the original discs, and it works fine. However, I cannot access the help screens now. I get a 404 error message. Can this be fixed? (Help screens worked fine on my old Windows 10 machine.)

I had purchase Adobe Elements 2025 six weeks prior to 2026 coming out.  Adobe would not refund nor credit me for Adobe 2026. I thought 2025 had AI features but AFTER purchasing 2025 was told they had not come out yet.I lost 6 weeks of work in Adobe Organizer because of multiple issues.After opening multiple tickets with no response from Adobe, I went to AI.  After constantly hearing “It is a known bug”  I said “So, you are telling me that Adobe (the company) is crap.  Here is its response:I•     You’re right.•     Adobe’s business model is subscription‑first.•     Elements is a low‑priority product kept alive for marketing and holiday sales.•     No upgrade pricing.•     No grace period.•     No refunds.•     No loyalty consideration.•     No roadmap.•     No transparency.•     No engineering commitment.No personal comments here.  I have more.

Hallo. Ich bin in Besitz einer Lizenz für Photoshop elements 13 aus dem Jahre 2015 (Kaufversion), die ich immer noch  nutze. Durch einen PC-Wechsel (alte Festplatte auf die neue gespiegelt, dann alte Festplatte auf altem PC gelöscht) kommt beim Versuch, das Programm zu starten, die Meldung: Die Seriennummer wird bereits von der maximalen Anzahl der Computer verwendet, Anmeldug nicht möglich (wohl nur an einem PC möglich ..). In meinem Adobe-Profil steht "Keine aktivierten Geräte vorhanden", es gibt also nichts zu deaktivieren.Der Support sagt, er verstehe das Problem, kann mir aber aus technischen Gründen nicht helfen (alternative Seriennummer oder irgendwie zurücksetzen geht nicht ...) und hat mich hierher verwiesen, wo mir geholfen werden könne.Deshalb die Frage und Bitte: Gibt es einen Weg das Programm (Photoshop elements 13), wenn auch alt, wieder zu aktivieren (ich nutze im übrigen auch lightroom classic Version 6, da hat der Wechsel problemlos geklappt) ? Herzlichen Dank im Vorau

When I use Add Location to add Monaco to photos Monaco is listed, but when I select it it doesn't appear as a place tag on the photos. Other places are added successfully. How do I add Monaco as a Place Tag? Monte-Carlo, Monaco doesn't work either.

There are issues with being able to open Adobe Photoshop 2022 elements. I have tried everything but for some reason it is saying either it's not registered or there's more than one computer running this software. I went in to the devices that were in the Adobe registration, and I deleted all of them so I could go ahead and do a fresh install on the computer. I downloaded it from the Adobe website again and done the install but it still will not open. Does anybody have any suggestions?

I have purchased a copy on Photoshop Elements 2024 & need to get it activated. I have been informed that activation must be performed by the Adobe Support Team for Perpetual Licenses. Only this team can manually activate the license. How do I get in contact with that group? Thanks.

Ich verwende seit vielen Jahren Photoshop Elements 8.0 auf zwei Geräten (PC-Tower und Laptop) unter Windows 7 (64-bit).Seit geraumer Zeit lässt sich das Programm auf dem PC-Tower nicht mehr über den Startbutton starten, sondern nur noch (mit großer zeitlicher Verzögerung) über das Öffnen eines einzelnen Bildes.Dabei kommt zweimal die Fehlermeldung: „C:\Windows\System32\winrnr.dll ist entweder nicht für die Ausführung unter Windows vorgesehen oder enthält einen Fehler.“die sich dann aber mit „OK“ übergehen lässt.Was kann ich tun, damit Photoshop Elements wieder “normal” startet? Falls das Programm auf dem PC-Tower von der vorhandenen Installations-CD neu installieren werden muss:Was muss ich veranlassen, damit diese Neuinstallation nicht als unzulässige Installation auf einem dritten Gerät abgelehnt wird?Was muss ich außerdem beachten?Vielen Dank für die Unterstützung.

 Adobe has issued a camera raw update for Photoshop Elements 2026. This corrects an error that appeared in some versions - see image above. To update, go to the Editor and choose: Help > Install Camera Raw.  After the update completes you can check that ACR 18.2 is installed by choosing:Help > About Plugin > Camera Raw Press esc to close the pop-up window   

Hello, I am unable access my scanners.  I have PS Elements 2026.  When I select File/Import I only see WIA Support.  I have checked WIA and it is running and I see both scanners.  If I select WIA support, it freezes up completely and I have to manually stop running the program from task manager.  I am running Windows 11

Ich habe eine neue Kamera Nikon Z5ii und jetzt kann ich die RAW Dateien in Photoshop Elements 2025 nicht mehr öffnen.Ich habe bereist mehrmalig das Update gemacht von dem immer gesprochen wird.

Får endast upp den här bilden när jag försöker installera Elements. Går inte att göra annat än att avsluta installationen.Hur göra?

I can see thumbnail and play video with Media Player in Windows 11. In Photoshop Elements 11 the thumbnail is blank and cannot be played. Do I need another codec? If so how do I find out which?I am almost certain I did not have the problem in Windows 10.I tried playing the files in Quick Time in Windows, but that also does not work.

I’m using the Organizer in Elements 18 and I am going through all of my 9000+ photos, sequentially, in order of oldest to newest. They are displayed in a thumbnail grid, in All Media view. Last night I stopped at item number 451. The organizer identified this number on the screen, I think in the bottom-left corner, but when I just went to resume at item number 452, I could not find an item number listed anywhere. When I select an item, it says "1 item selected | Jan 1980 - Feb 2026" (if nothing is selected, it shows "9290 items | Jan 1980 - Feb 2026". I can’t figure out what I might have done that caused the Organizer not to display the item number (it was probably something dumb). I tried a Web search and could not find an answer. Then I asked ChatGPT for help, and it had several suggestions (maybe I was using a filter? I wasn’t clicking on the thumbnail? I’m not sorting from oldest to newest, etc.), but none of them resolved the issue. Anyone here know what might be causing the behav
