I currently use 6.0, I typically only scratch the surface of that version. I'll take an existing image or photograph, add layers above and below, use opacity on the various layers, add text and various basic effect filters (eg. blur) and the occasional color gradient and balance edits. Then, I save the original layered psd file for future reference and export additional copies as gif's and jpg's. How much of this can I do in Elements?
will I be able to open 6.0 psd's and work with them as normal in Elements?
Is it possible to downgrade CC to CS6 and get back Photoshop CS6 within CreativeCloud for my team?(eg. invisible/deactivated layers are still selectable) so we cannot basically do any web-design.
I have a Serial No. for Photoshop CS5 but I need to Install Photo Shop CS3 as per My PC is not much updated to run Photoshop CS5.So can I use the CS 5 Serial No. on CS 3?
I have some trouble with my 64bits version which is not compatible with microsoft access 2007/32bits ( object library no found), and I 'm wondering if it's possible to downgrade CS.5.1 64bits to 32.?
I own Photoshop CS6 at home, but have been hired to do some work at a client site where they are still on CS5. I would very much like to bring my extensively customized brushes with me (and the client is eager for me to do so), but I keep getting an error that the brush file is incompatible with CS5.
Is there any way to migrate these brushes to a CS5 install?
in PSCS3 I am now unsure as to weather or not it is worth it to upgrade. I will probably be getting mine (CS3 Web Premium) today and I am thinking about not installing it but sending it back. I have a very nice working full PSCS2 suite and have been using the no-expire PSCS3 beta and from what I have read so far the new version has a lot of problems. If I install it as an upgrade, I don't think I will be able to use CS2 anymore and I don't want my PS to keep crashing and posing new problems when my CS2 is fine. So I am now stuck with this dilemma... keep it and hope they send out patches and fix the errors or just send it back and wait till they fix the errors. I have not heard any good things about CS3 so far and also they changed a lot of the shortcuts, not sure why as we all are used to the ones that they already had? I don't want to spend all this money only to have crashes, loss of work, aggregation and be wishing I had waited. So far the upgrade seems like a downgrade...
If I have PS CS3 extended version and want to upgrade to PS CS6, can I buy the PS CS6 standard upgrade and "downgrade" from extended to standard version?
Due to certain issues with freshly released 2013, new licenses I need to downgrade - to use with 2012. I asked via support and subscription and the answer was to use "Partner Center" for that. Since I'm the end user (not a partner), I have no access to that. What do I do?
I'm running Windows 7 Professional. After updating to the latest version, the app crashes on startup with the message "adobe illustrator CC has stopped working". I need to be able to continue work on projects, so I need to downgrade to a version of Illustrator that will work.
I have not renamed or moved original elements, yet when I recently opened an on-going project in Photoshop Elements 4.0, about 1/4 of the media elements were gone. Why? Is there a way to troubleshoot this? Anyway to recover these slides? Can't see that any photos, etc in the Organizer have broken links.
Is there any way to have more than one text placement inside of a single layer, but be able to maintain and move each of those separately from the others? From what I have seen, each new Text item gets its own new layer. If I want to document an image with seven points of reference, it's absolutely crazy that I have to maintain seven layers, each with an integer 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7. What would be much more maintainable is to create ONE layer and name it "MAP-NUMBERS" and then have seven integers placed into that one layer. I would then want to be able to move - say - "2" around separately from "4". Then making all of the numbers appear or disappear becomes as easy as hiding or showing one layer.
Is there a way to do this with any version of Photoshop?
Description of the task: I want to create a tool which is able to visualize the positions of pieces on a game board. At the moment I'm using Photoshop Elements 7. I think the following procedure would be appropriate:
2 layers, the basic layer would show the game board and the images of the pieces would be on the second layer. If I try to do that with Photoshop Elements 7 then each time when I insert an image of a piece a new layer is created. I don't need a layer per figure. Yes, one could reduce a layer afterwards. But it's not so comfortable this way.
In addition the images of the pieces should be movable on the game board. There is the option "free transform" in Photoshop Elements 7 but only one element (one piece) is movable afterwards. All the inserted elements should be movable.
So my question: Is it feasible within Photoshop Elements 7? If not, which version of Photoshop Elements would be adequate or which software do I need?
I am trying to add several photos to a frame. I just downloaded the free trial of photoshop elements 12, but the entire column labeled 'layer' is disabled. I can't use clipping mask. I am wondering, is this feature disabled because it's a free trial? Do I need to have my photos arranged differently in order for the layer column to be active and usable? Is this a feature that elements does not have?
I would like to move elements of that painting onto a separate layer. What is the best way to do this? An example of this would be a painting with the moon in a night sky. I might want to move that moon object into a separate layer.
My reason for wanting to do this is I want to change the background of the painting without worrying about doing fine details around the objects I am moving. A second benefit of moving the objects to a layer is that I can then easily move the location of those elements in the painting around, trying to reposition them.
can I get all of the elements I am moving onto a SINGLE layer AND still have the ability to move those elements around separately? If I want to move 10 elements in a painting to a separate layer, it is REALLY inconvenient to have to put those into 10 separate layers and constantly maintain naming of these different layers.
I have quit the program and restarted it. I have restarted the Mac and the problem is still there. None of my other program windows are stuck, just Elements.
I'm trying to access the ruler tool in elements 9. I got to the eyedropper icon, point at it, click and hold, but the window with the options does not open. Is there another way to access this tool?
When moving images into PE 10 for editing, patterns on clothing get distorted (stripes, checks). These are fine in other programs after downloading from the camera. They are also fine in the PE 10 RAW editor, but distort when moved into the editor. It does not seem to be just a display issue as they also print with the distorted patterns. how to correct or avoid this from happening?
Whenever I start Elements Organiser, there is an on-screen message that there are files ready to import and that the Organiser will now import these files into the Catalog. Then a "Getting Media" box displays and, at some point, say 56%, the "racing cursor" appears and the programme does nothing more. It just freezes and eventually there is a Windows message stating that the programme is not responding. This happens in Elements/Premiere 11. I reinstalled Elements 6 and the file importing works quickly and without problem in that version of Elements.
This is a new, custom-built PC, running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. 16 Gb memory. Adobe programmes were installed for 64-bit OS exactly as directed in Adobe instructions. All hardware drivers are up to date. No other problems with any other software, just Adobe's Elements 11 bundle !
A B&W logo ought to be possible to change the colour of the black elements? I can find the appropriate menu option, "Change Colour" but it randomely wioll not highlight. When it does, the process does not seem obvious. I do the obvious things, but nothing is happening.
My wife took my picture in front of the UW Husky Stadium but the video screen above me is overexposed (washed out). So I took a separate shot of the screen with proper exposure. As you can probably see, I took this shot much closer to the screen. I want to replace the overexposed screen witht the properly exposed screen in the picture of me.
Because the properly exposed shot was taken closer to the screen and maybe at a different angle (rotation) those would have to be adjusted.
I am using Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 running on Windows 7. I have used it for a while but am an absolute beginner with anything more than the simplest functions so I would need all the steps spelled out in detail.
I put the elements 12 disk in my DVD drive and it spens about 4 minutes trying to get going. The lights on the drive flash occasionally, and you can hear it trying to go. I go to "my computer" to check the "drive" folder and it never appears for me to click on it and open it. It also doesn't automatically load which I have turned on. I have verified it is a DVD drive.
I have added accidentally a wrong location to a few photos. I replaced the location by the correct one. However, this location is still present in the extended search (even after repairing the catalogue) as checkbox to select.
When selected, no picture is shown (correct), however, if this checkbox with the wrong location vanish.
In all previous versions of Elements, if you set your editing in iPhoto preferences to Elements it would send the file to Elements and open in the Editor.. with this version when I do the same, it only opens the editor but no picture to edit..
I just downloaded the Photoshop Editor 11 app from the app store. The installed app is 2.7 gigs! This can't be right, can it? That's more than twice as big as any other app I have.
I continually receive a message saying that I have an Internet ot firewall problem whenever I attempt to upload photo albums to share using Elements. Neither is factually correct.
