i reached out to adobe and i was told this issuse will be resolved with PSE 2024 which is expected to come out in November. I was also told that if we can't wait til then the onlyway to resolve this is to revert back to our previous mac OS which i think was ventura. Was also told we will be notifiede when 2024 comes out.

"Elements has already more than twenty versions. Would you expect Adobes to develop a compatible version of each of them every year ?"

Well, yes. From 2022 to 2023 is only one year difference. If I have to buy a new version of PSE every year it is in effect a subscription.

So, you are agreeing that you are not expecting updating 20 versions. Only one, knowing that it appears that the problem does not exist in PSE 2023 issued one year ago.

The real issue is that Adobe never updates previous versions of Elements and they have no interest in doing so. So, think about the coming years and make your choice. Keep in mind that Elements is very marginal for Adobe. And the Mac market share seems to be equally marginal for Elements, which has to be compared with the developping costs and share of issues in the support side. Windows users might wish that Adobe no longer offer a Mac version for Macs.

I am on a mac Sonoma 14 using PSE 2022. photo bin shows corrupted views of files and sometiemes didn't show at all. also, when using clone stamp tool, curser did not show

Will updating to PSE 2023 solve this problem? Is the problem Sonoma? Do I need to go back to a previous OS and strating using it?

ALSO, the photos in the photo bin do NOT represent the actual files!
