    Hi Medha,

    Thank you very much for coming back to me. I have almost given up with Adobe . You must be the only person who is trying to resolve my issue. Thank you I really appreciate it.

    Here are the particulars about my system.

    I have an

    Imac 27” (retina 5K late 2015)

    It has Mac OS Mojave installed.( just recently upgraded)

    Processor 3.2 GHz Intel core i5

    Memory 24GB 1867 MHz DDR3

    Start Up Disc Macintosh HD

    Graphics AMD Radeon R8M3802048MB

    See attached Screen print

    Please reply with a solution asap.

    Please acknowledge receipt of this email.

    Thank you Very Much

    Best Regards

    Des

    I would like to take Elements 15 off this computer to see if it works on Macbook air which has the previous OS to Mojave . I think that Mojave could be the reason. Or can I down load a trial version to check. Will a trail version let me use the adjust facial features.


    Hello Des,

    Thanks for sharing the requested information. These artefacts are visible on systems with certain GPUs running on Mac OS 10.14.

    As a workaround, could you please try the following steps?

    1. Click on Adobe Photoshop Elements 15 Editor (in the Menu Bar on the top).

    2. Click on Preferences > General > Performance

    3. Uncheck the "Use Graphics Processor for Adjusting Facial Features"

    Now try using the Adjust Facial Features on the same image. Let me know if it works for you

    You can also download the trial version of Photoshop Elements 2019 on your MacBook Air. It would surely let you use the Adjust Facial Features option.

    Download Photoshop Elements | 2019, 2018, and 15

    Thanks,

    Medha

    Hi Meda Shama ,

    Did you receive the before and after photographs that I emailed you.

    Could I please have a telephone number that I can contact you on.

    I have recently taken photographs of a Birthday party and need the adjust facial features to edit these. Right now I cannot use my software.

    Please reply if you are in receipt of the photograph that I emailed you.

    Thank you for your reply,

    Please see that Media gets this :-

    Hi Medha,

    You are a super star. I unchecked “use graphics processor for adjusting facial features”. Tried adjusting facial features of my original photograph , adjusted the smile feature, clicked ok . I NOW HAVE A SMILE WITH OUT THE ARTEFACTS.

    MEDHA YOU HAVE FOUND THE CURE FOR THE SPOTS..

    ALL THOSE READING THIS :-

    IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM ASK FOR MEDA. READ MY TRANSCRIPT. NON OF THE OTHERS THAT I CHATTED TO HAD A CLUE WHAT TO DO.

    Medha Thank You X 1,000,000.

    Please forward me your CEO’s email address so that I can tell him that he as a person called Medha that walks that extra mile for his customer and is an asset to his company

    Medha, will I have to uncheck “use graphics processor for adjusting facial features” every time I want to use this feature , or sill this stay unchecked. Will I have to enable it for any other function that works in photoshop elements 15 for example cropping, selecting ,cloning etc.??

    Best Regards

    Des.

    BTW. I have already purchased Adobe Photoshop elements 19 as was not making any progress or getting any form of help for the forum or any one that I chatted to . all I got was the 15c was a very old product and that I can’t phone any one about it and they can’t help me . the only help was the forum

    You have once again restored my faith in Adobe.


    Thanks for such kind words, Des! Always happy to help!

    And as Greg mentioned, the preferences stay the same unless you explicitly change them. So you won't have to uncheck the 'Use Graphics Processor for Adjusting Facial Features' checkbox everytime you wish to use this feature.

    Thanks,

    Medha Sharma
