Questions

I have just paid and downloaded Elements 2026 specifically to use the generative AI features.  Every Gen AI "insert image" prompt I try I get the message "We cannot process this prompt.  Please edit and try again".  The help forums refer to breaching of AI guidelines - but I get this trying to create simple images - e.g. a cat. My "complimentary" credits are still full - 35.  The only way to increase this in future appears to be to subscribe to a monthly package - there is no way to buy a bunch of credits. All in all, the experience has been disappointing so far. What am I doing wrong?

My I Mac crashed and I had to start from scratch and reinstall my operating system. Now everything is up and running. I would like to reinstall adobe photoshop elements 2018 that I bought online but I'm not certain how to get this done. any help would be appreciated.

Photoshop Elements 2026 Organizer not import a TIFF file ceated by NX Studio from a Nikon NRW file.But, PSE 2025 Organizer does open the same TIFF file created by NX Studio.I need to be able to use an NX Studio created TIFF because PSE does not fully emulate the in-camera NRW settings (e.g. Nikon Picture Control & lens adjustments).Furthermore: PSE 2026 Organizer will import the NX Studio TIFF after PSE 2026 Editor Camera Raw opens that TIFF and applies some edits.

I'm new to Photoshop Elements 2026. I've worked in multiple files using the basic tools with some success. Today I was experimenting with custom brushes.  Somehow, I accidentally created a brush that is essentially the outline of one of my drawings.  The brush (an actual scene) seems to be my default brush.  I've tried unsuccessfully to delete the brush.  I've deleted the brush, but it appears to be deleted only from the list.  I cannot work in Photoshop Elements 2026 as is.  Does anyone know how to fix this? Thank you

Hi, I am considering buying Photoshop Elements 2026 but after checking out the system requirements I would need to upgarde my 7th GEN i3 based PC first. I am on a tight budget and was wonder if anyone had any experiance or thoughts about using the following GPU and/or CPU with Elements 2026? I'll mosly be working with JPEGs from 12 and 20 megapixel cameras.GPU - NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 2GB DDR5.CPU - Intel i3 14100F.RAM - 16GB DDR5.I realise the GPU is old and low spec by modern standards but I require a card within my budget and with a VGA connector. Does Elemets 2026 need a dedicated GPU? I could buy an i3 14100 instead of an i3 14100F and use it's onboard GPU but I think the maximum RAM I could share in BIOS would be 1GB which falls short of the required 1.5GB.

PSE 2023: Übung zum Kolorieren. Öffne jpeg Bild " Hannelore" im Fotoeditor. Kann aber keine Hannelore finden. Wo steckt das Bild?

I have a new problem - I tried to open a raw file and a window appeared that said I needed a raw plug-in. There is a raw file for 2025 is that compatible with 2026. If not what do I do.

I have posted extensively about the inability of Chat support to reset Adobe Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements Licenses here:Adobe is of the view that licenses should be managed by the clients on not by customer support. This is ok. However, Adobe does not put the necessary tools at the user's disposal to make this process easy. If the customer wipes a machine without signing out of the app first and then gives it away, the user has no way to reset the license and needs to purchase a new license.I have spend several hours chatting with customer support and there is no solution that they can offer.There would be an easy solution. All purchased one time licenses are listed in the adobe account page and the apps can be downloaded from there. If Adobe were to add a button "reset license" next to the download button, this longstanding and frustrating problem would go away (and customer care would have an issue less to deal with).Adobe, can you implement, this please?

is there a way to fix this?

I need to reinstall Photo Elements 2025 but am having difficulty.  When I load program and open program, a dialog box comes up to ask if I want a free trial for 7days.  I already paid for this but cannot get past this dialog box.  Program closes after that.

Hello Everybody,I got Photoshop Elements 2026 today, and there seems to be a glitch / bug:When I try do use menus such as 'Edit > Preferences > General' or 'Enhance > Adjust Sharpness' the pop-up window / dialogue box isn't big enough to show its content (outlined in red in two screengrabs attached).  Has anybody else had this issue?   Many thanks.

 Produkttyp: Fotoshop Elements 13Ich habe einen neuen Windows 11 Rechner bekommen und das Programm via CD/aktueller Installationsdatei auf der Adobe-Hompage  installiert. Ich kann Photoshop Elements nicht mehr öffnen da man eine Anmeldung braucht. Ich habe mich ordnungsgemäß angemeldet aber nach dem letzten Enter kommt immer wieder die Aufforderung zur Anmeldung.Hat jemand dazu eine Lösung?Adobe-Support konnte nicht helfen und zieht sich dann auf Support-Ende auf Grund des Alters der Software zurück.Dank im Voraus

I'm in the middle of crunch time to get crafts finished for the holidays ... I have Photoshop Elements 2024 on my Windows 11 pc and although I can open a file (png or pdf for print), when I click PRINT ... the app crashes with no explanation. Why would I spend the money to upgrade to 2026? Not happy at the moment and certainly not spending more $ on the new app. [Moderator branched from an unrelated thread and renamed title]

Just installed Photoshop Elements 2026 on my 2020 Intel iMac 8-core Intel Core i7 running Tahoe 26.0.1 Tried to test out photo restore (primary reason for buying this) and it does nothing.  The window heading says "Restore Photo" so I think I am in the right place.f I select Enhance> Restore Photo and I see no visible changes when I toggle the before/after views.  I also do not get any tools on the right side for refining the restore. Thoughts? Thanks!

I have just downloaded Photoshop Elements 2024 from my adobe account and installed it on my new MacBook Pro 16 2024 (M4). When I started PSE after installation, it asked me to install Rosetta 2, which I would like to avoid. In other forum posts people have reported that there is an apple silicon compatible version of PSE 2024 that does not require Rosetta. Looking at info for the app file, it is listed as being the apple silicon version.Can someone indicate to me where I might find the correct version that does not require rosetta ?  

I have used PSE (Photoshop Elements) over many years for reconfiguring music for large pages.  I have used the bitmap function in PSE to condense the resulting pdf files.  The last PSE version that actually successfully condensed a pdf file was PSE10 - typically a factor of almost 10x reduction in size.  I was hoping that Adobe would sustain this feature of bitmap in later versions, but once again, PDE 2025 does not condense pdf files, in some cases the bitmap function actually increases the pdf file size!.  Can someone at Adobe look into this "loss of function" of bitmap in the PSE package since PSE10?   I am attaching the original fine (filea) and subsequent PSE10 and PSE25 bitmap files.

Tried to move Adobe Photoshop 2011 from C drive to D drive, because I kept getting notice not suffient space on C drive.  Looked on line for ways to do it, used Cut and Paste, Cut from C drive to paste to D drive.  It starts to load, but freezes said I need to reload lic. on Photo Editor, but can not find that file anywhere.  My C drive is only 220GB, and only have 1 GB left on Dell XPS8930  Help!  Wife 

I just got the 2025 version of PE but I havent used Elements for 15 years and the 2025 version is quite different than the old version I used to use. Im stuck right now on this: I've scanned a number of small images in one scan. I need to be able to move each individual small image off the original scan and use that as a stand alone image. But I cant for the life of me remember how to do it. I've tried a number of different strategies but so far nothing works. Please help! CC
