Questions

Hi! I have a Mac mini with M2 pro chip and 16gb memory. I was using Elements 2022, which ran perfectly on the mac. However, I upgraded some time ago to Elements 2025 and it really runs slow. For example the most basic edit I use, is to adjust the lighting. In 22 it edited instantly. But with 25, it takes about ten seconds. No matter what function I use, it buffers almost every time. Apple, of course, assured me that the spec is sufficient to run elements. Anyone have any thoughts? cheers Stuart

Plötzlich werden aktuelle Vorschaubilder in BSE 2018 nicht mehr angezeigt.  Alle Anwendungen sind auf den aktuellen Stand wird angezeigt.Was ist zu tun?

I have Photoshop Elements 12, it's an old version but has served me well up to now. I had a hard drive failure which resulted in having to install a new drive, and I installed Windows 11 at the same time.  Everything has been reloaded, but Photoshop won't open, showing this Window -     - the product is registered on my Adobe account? What can I do?    [Moderator: Moved to the Photoshop Elements forum]  

In Adobe Elements Organizer 2023.I have imported .jpg and .RAW images into Organizer and trying to isolate RAW images into a sub-folder/directory.I have tried File > Move  as well as Ctrl + Shift + V  to Move the files to a sub-folder called RAW.The images are copied but not moved. They remain in the original folder as well as the new RAW folder. What am I missing? 

I recently purchased a Nikon Z6iii and I'm having an issue with uploading RAW photo files into the elements 2021 organizer. When I try to upload the files I keep receiving the error "files were skipped because they are not supprted"? I know that the files are usable because I can upload them into Topaz Photo AI. I'm wondering if the Z6ii has to be added somehow or should simply just work?

I tried to open a raw file with my new elements 2026 software. It said I needed to download and install the Photoshop Elements 2026 Add on Utilities. I searched for that on the Adobe site and didn't get any sensible results. I later found an article with a link to download and install the raw plug in v 17.5 so I tried that. It downloaded a file cameraraw_17-5-1.dmg. When I clicked that it installed something, somewhere but the main software still doesn't open raw files. Now they are not greyed out on the menu and I get a preview on my mac but it then gives me a message saying I need to download the raw plug in. What am I doing wrong

Wie zeichne ich einen Kreis ohne Füllung in Photoshop Elements. 2o25 und die verändere die Größe.Genaue Anleitung

Hallo, in Photoshop Elements 2025 (Version 25.0 – Build 20250402.PSE.8affb1f0, x64) mit Camera Raw 18.0.0 tritt folgendes Problem auf: Wenn ich eine RAW-Datei im Camera-Raw-Editor öffne und anschließend über den Button „Fertig“ schließe, werden die vorgenommenen Änderungen für Rauschunterdrückung (Luminanz / Farbe) zwar gespeichert (in der XMP-Datei sichtbar), aber nicht in den Organizer übernommen.Im Organizer bleibt das Vorschaubild unverändert – also ohne Rauschreduzierung – und auch beim anschließenden Export über den Organizer (z. B. als JPEG) fehlt die Rauschunterdrückung im Ergebnisbild. Wenn ich dagegen im Camera Raw-Editor auf „Bild öffnen“ klicke, wird die Rauschunterdrückung korrekt angewendet und ist im exportierten JPEG sichtbar.Andere Camera-Raw-Anpassungen wie Belichtung, Helligkeit, Kontrast und Farbe werden sowohl bei „Fertig“ als auch bei „Öffnen“ ordnungsgemäß übernommen. Windows 11 Pro (aktuellste Updates)Photoshop Elements 2025 v25.0 (64-bit)Cam

Everything has been good with the images until now. To my knowledge nothing has changed. No updates or changes. If I save and open a image from a FB album I get a raster image purple colors. If I open it any other way like with a photoviewer it is fine. Any other image from any other source it is fine. Any ideas?

I have Elements 2021 and since trialling Elements 2026 , it seems a lot of settings in 2021 have gone haywire. The most annoying one is that I can't create a white photo frame in Expert mode (I don't like the Quick edit frames, they're too big for my liking). I can do a black one, but for some reason a white frame just doesn't appear (the frame folows all colours of the image), I've played around with the settings but can't get it to work (and yes I've googled and tried about 4 different options, with no success)....so I would appreciate any help. 

Since uploading Elements 2026 and upgrading to  Windows 11 I am having a difficult time loading my photos in Elements for editing. It is not so much that my raw files do not load, but that once I have made my initial edits in raw, I cannot quickly open them into the app for further edits. Even one photo file can take minutes to load and trying to load multiple photos at a time causes the system to stall or crash completely. My PC system capabilities (RAM, storage, etc) all seem consistent with Elements 2026 requirements. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem with this or an earlier version of Elements? I previously was using Elements 2020 with Windows 10 and never had an issue. Can't figure out if the problem is with Adobe or Windows 11.Thanks.

 Hello,I would like to mark individual photos within a stack (or batch, in german: "Stapel") in the organizer with a tag.Then I want to search them via tag search und then I what to mark them all to copy them to another place (e.g. to a mobil phone). Now I have the problem that the search always shows me all photos of the stack after clicking on the desired tag, even if only one single photo of the stack contains the desired tag. PSE shows "no hit" (in german: "kein Treffer") on the untagged photos of the stack - but they are still displayed.So I can not completely mark und copy the search result and I have to look through the entire stack very tediouslyto search for the only really tagged photo. Does anyone have a solution for this, how to restrict the search result to the really tagged photos?Or is there another way besides tags?It's even worse with albums: if I add a single photo of the stack to the album, all of the photos in the stack are added to the album. Th

Have tried to install since 30th Oct but still unusable due to the following problems:Very hard to install - it took 9 attempts including uninstalling and running the cleaner tool every time but the installation crashed at around 90% each time. At first I thought it was because PSE 2020 was still installed so I uninstalled that but it made no differenceOrganiser would not open from the welcome screen, meaning several more reinstalls etc until it started working (badly)When Organiser finally opened the screen would black out for a couple of seconds if the cursor moved outside the thumbnail area, making in unusableEditor would not open from the welcome screen, so a lot more reinstalling etc without it getting past the plug-in scanRunning PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe from the Photoshop Elements 2026 folder had the same resultResetting all preferences made no differenceSame results with WiFi disabledI now cannot even get PSE 2020 to reinstall even though it was working perfectly before I bo

WARNING! Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements dose not work with Snapdragon processor.

Elements 2026 has note that it only works on MacOS 14x or MacOS 15x. My Mac has version Tahoe26x. Does this mean I am out of luck and shouldn't download it?

I have Premiere and Elements ver 21.0. Can I upgrade it? Or is that a new purchase? Is a Subscription required?  I like the product for its ease of use but it is pretty limited in features I would like to have so I'm not willing to pay a lot for it or use a subscription.  For example the pan and zoom tool is awful. Thanks for your thoughts about upgrading.

I've read that in Photoshop there is a Match Color command to match the colors between two images. Is such a command also available in Photoshop elements? If not is there a way to achieve the same in Elements? Thanks!   Kind regards,
