Questions

Hi folks, I'm visiting a sporting event abroad and aim to take a ton of photos and need editing software. I have PS Elements on my laptop at home but didn't want to drag it abroad. I just purchased a cheap laptop with only 4GB RAM - my mistake. On coming to the Adobe page I had hoped to simply download my software to this laptop but made a school boy error by not realising it would not run without at least 8GB RAM. My tech knowledge is limited to say the least. I believe an earlier version from 2018 will work. Does anybody know if that's correct and if so where I can find a link to download said programme?? Thanks in advance. 

I am trying to make a montage using photoshop elements 5.I have a background photograph layer and a foreground photograph layer.Both of these layers have an identical family group photograph.I want to apply a mask to the foreground layer in order that i can expose other photographs positioned in bettween the foreground and the background layers.The apply mask button is greyed out and will not apply the mask to the foreground layer.I am desperate for some help please. Peter.richardson459@sky.com 

Wie kann ich aus einer JPEG Datei eine Vektorgrafik erstellen?

I wanted to Import some photos and videos from my wife's iPhone 13 into my Photoshop Elements 22 on my Windows 11 laptop.  The videos on her phone were HEVC and they will not Import into my PE22 and I get the following PE22 message, "The file is damaged or is in a format that cannot be included in Elements Organizer F:/Photos..._5572.MOV."  The "F:/Photos... " is my external HD where my PE22 Organizer and/or catalogue is.  I know how to change her phone's settings to that she does not get HEVC videos and HEIF photos, and have since changed those settings.  However, how can I change her HEVC videos on her iPhone to H.264 (or .MOV) and change her HEIF photos still on her phone to JPEG?  Seems there must be a way of doing this without using an app that I am not sure I can trust.

Why is Adobe making me sign in to my PS Elements 2021 account, every time I want to use it?

I had been using this ancient elements software for over a decade. Today I tried bringing a Nikon D810 photo (.RAW file) into the application, it gave me the camera raw error of not being up to date to read the file. I then went to download the newer version of Camera Raw from Adobe and after it installs nothing changes. I also have noticed that the "preferences+CTRL" trick I've found on youtube won't work for me, as when I hit the Edit>Preferences there is no camera raw to click on. I have looked for it in my program files as well (to replace it with the newer version) but cannot find a standalone file either. I uninstalled and reinstalled Elements as a last ditch effort. Really confused. Just now I checked for updates, and it recommends the 7.4 version which I believe is what I had before I uninstalled. Why won't it show newer versions? Camera Raw Version 7.1.0354Windows 10 Thanks  

Assuming my attachment went through, you can see a blue window with the message, “Try new moving overlay creations on the Elements web app!  Click to get started.” That blue window would not go away, no matter what I tried. I finally had to quit Elements and reload my document. It's more than a tiny bit annoying. This took place on 2024-08-16 a little before 7:15 pm PDT. Thank you! I'm using:Mac mini 2013 (Apple M2 Pro Silicon Native)macOS 14.6.1Elements 2022 ver. 20.0 (20220702.Git.dot.b9b2853)

Hello! I have viewed all of the related 'Save As jpg' threads, but they all show the solution as going into Preferences and selecting the 'Revert to Legacy' option, which I don't have.My one laptop is in the shop, so I am using another, and even if I save as a copy, jpg will NOT come up as an option, and in the File options there is no Save as Copy option available. Please help! Pics attached...(BTW Photoshop Elements 2022 on Windows 11 OS-Files already in RBG 8 Bits/channel)

Hi. I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 2022 installed on my desktop pc. I have Windows 11 OS. When I start the program and go into Photo Editor I click on the Guided Mode. The Guided Edits tabs do not show up. What do I do to get them to show up? I have uninstalled the program and reinstalled it and still the same thing. 

The Camera Raw feature of older versions of Elements (specifically 2020 and 2016) had an option where I could change the default values for basic adjustments, such as highlights, whites, and vibrance.  I used that feature to apply a starting set of adjustments that worked reasonably well for most of my raw photos, knowing that there would still be unique tweaks for each photo.  I cannot find any way to do the same think in Camera Raw 16.0.0.1677 with Elements 2024.  It always starts with the Adobe-defined default adjustments (mostly zeroes).  I want to change a few adjustments to start with something other that what the fine folks at Adobe chose for me.  The feature "apply previous settings" does not accomplish what I want, because the last raw photo I opened frequently had some unique adjustment that I don't want to apply to subsequent photos.  What am I missing?

I just installed PS Elements on Mac OS X Big Sur. The application will not open

Ich habe den gleichen Fehler mit PSE 2022 gehabt und dieser tritt mit PSE 2024 wieder auf. Sobald ich den Organzior beendet kann er nicht mehr erneut gestartet werden. Der Prozess (obwohl ordentlich beendet) ist weitehrin im Taskmgr aktiv und muss dort erst gelöscht werden damit PSE 2024 neu gestartet werden kann. Mein OS ist Windows 11 Pro neuester Patchstand. 

ich kann in Photoshop Elements 2024 keine kostenlosen Stockfotos laden. Erhalte immer ein Fenster mit dem Hinweis: Wir können Ihre Anfrage nicht verarbeiten. Versuchen sie es später erneut.

I am trying to open Canon RAW files created on a Canon R100 which have a .CR3 extension in Photoshop Elements V. 19 from 2021.  When I click on Open Camera Raw in the Editor, I got the message "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document".  When I looked at the menu in Help/About Plus-Ins/ Camera Raw, I seen that ACR v. 13.0.0.612 is installed.  So I go to the Adobe website and download and run the installation wizard for v. 15.5; it completes installation.   After installation it is the same ACR version as before, and get the same massage.  What's going wrong?

I purchased a Dell XPS 9345 laptop that has a Snapdragon X Elite X1E80100 CPU. Elements 2024 fails with Error 16. Does Elements 2024 work on this system? If Elements 2024 doesn't work, any estimated date on when it will? If Elements 2024 does work on this system, any tips on how to get past Error 16 appreciated.

After I've worked on a photo, there forms a listing  of "previously edited files list" how do I delete these files? 

I went into Elements 10 to find some photos and was suppised that the program did not launch and required a up file update.  Then all my folders pictures are gone.  I have never attmpted to organize anything I bought a used copy of elements 10 and spent days trying to do so.  Now its all gone and to be honest I'm not sure if the photos are deleted or if its just the link to them for Elements are deleted.  Can somebody tell me how this program works?

HelloWhen I open a single RW2 file I have no problems, but when I try to do the same with more than one file, the program crashes. It's the same if there are 2 or 20. A few weeks ago, I could open group files of that type without problems. Does anyone know what this is due to? Thank you so much.

I added a Place to a picture.  When I go to the Places menu I see a map and the picture is pinned where I want it.  When I click on the picture, under Image Tags it has the Country and City of the picture.  When I click on the Search bar, I can search for the Country or the City.  All seems to work well.Then, still under Search, down the left side there is Tags, People, Places, Calendar, etc.  I click on Places and it says, "There are no Places tags assigned to your media.How can it be that when I select a picture, I see places in the Image tags but then Adobe Elements Organizer says there are no Places tags.  It makes no sense to me.What am I missing???

I have PSE 11.0 and want to update to PSE 11.4 to have camera raw. Can I do this? How?

Bonjour à tous !Je viens d'installer Organizer Elements pour mettre de l'ordre dans mes photos. Le problème, c'est que j'ai énormément de doublons. Soyons clairs, c'est un problème antérieur à l'installation d'Organizer : sur mon ordinateur j'ai par exemple un dossier (j'insiste sur ce terme) USA reprenant toutes mes photos de vacances aux USA. L'ennui, c'est que j'ai aussi un dossier dossier best of USA et un dossier best of 2012. Les fichiers (j'insiste sur ce terme) jpg  des meilleures photos prises aux USA sont donc en trois exemplaires : un dans le dossier USA, un autre dans le dossier best of USA et un troisième dans le dossier best of 2012. Je sais bien que c'est n'importe quoi, mais j'étais jeune en 2012...J'imagine que l'idéal serait d'avoir dans Organizer un album USA, un album best of USA et un album best of 2012. Je pourrais aussi utiliser des étiquettes, mais je pense que les alb
