Photoshop Elements :: Files Saved From Editor Have Broken Thumbnail In Organizer?
Jan 17, 2013
I am using PSE 9. I go to organizer, open a photo to edit, go to edit, edit photo, then close photo. Then I go back to organizer and photo. The photo is replaced with what looks like a "cracked" file. Is there a way to finish your edit or finalize it or something?
I have just upgraded to Elements 12 from version 6 and find that if I select a file in the organizer, select "Edit with Photoshop Elements editor", carry out the editing and save the file with the boxes for "include in elements organizer" and "Save in Version Set with original" checked the edited photo is not automatically included in the organizer nor stacked. On returning to the Organizer it tells me that a new photo has been found in the watched folders and I have to import it and stack it manually.
The Organizer thumbnails is showing broken images for some pictures, but when I look at the pictures using Windows Explorer or any other photo editing program, they are fine. I've already tried right-clicking the image and clicking "Update Thumbnail". How can I fix the thumbnails?
I recently upgraded from PSE5 to PSE12. The installation went smoothly and my old Catalog was imported without a hitch. After my first test run to edit a file, I did a "Save As" in a version set with the original. I then closed the file, but when I went to the organizer, it was not there. When I go to the folder in Windows Explorer, the edited file is present - I just can't get it to appear (alone or in a version set) in the Organizer. (FYI, I am running Windows 8).
I wonder what effects the .XMP files have on Photoshop applications. Should I keep them when working in the OS (WIN7) or chuck them? What effects would deleting XMP have?
I am trying to import some jpg files into organiser from a windows folders. What turns up in organiser is a thumbnail (there is no image) for each photo. Properties indicate that it is the correct jpg. I can open the file in Elements. There is something about the files that is causing the problem. Moving the file to another folder makes no difference.
I have been using Elements 9 for more than a year. Today it started doing something crazy. When I edit a photo (did this using "guided edit"), instead of saving the edited version (in a version set), all I get is a grey screen with an hour glass. When I go to my hard drive, I find both the original and the edited version saved, but it no longer shows up in Organizer.
Is there a way to get the organizer that comes with Adobe Premiere Elements 11 (Mac) with Photoshop Elements 11 Editor (Mac)?
I previously downloaded Elements 11 Editor from Mac iTunes Store, this version does not come with Organizer. I then found I had a copy of organizer with Premiere Elements 11. After install I can use both products fine, but cannot use edior to edit my photos from the Organizer. The message "the feature you selected requires adobe photoshop elements" appears.
When I first installed elements 12 everything was fine. Now it's not. I can run Organizer but cannot start Editor from Organizer. I cannot start Editor at all. From the start screen the Barber's' pole shows for a few seconds but nothing happens. I have tried uninstalling, from the disc, and reinstalling several times, still nothing!
The organiser winthin PSE 10 acts on a filosofy which is not mine and I do not want to change my workflow.Having 100.000+ images and coming drom Paint Shop Pro I only want to wordk with the editor in PSE10.So how to uninstall the organiser part?
I have Elements 11, using windows 8. When I am in the Editor mode I can't open the Organizer, I get a message that elements isnt working and needs to shut down. I also can't get a picture I am looking at in the Organizer to pop open in the Editor without first going to the Editor and opening it from there.
After upgrading frm Windows XP to Windows 7, my Elements Organizer - in "Folder Location" mode is not updating with ANY changes frm Editor. I'm checking "include in the Elements Organizer" on SAVE OPTIONS. Changed file names are updating to the physical file. In effect the Editor is NOT Working.
When I open a picture on my computer with PSE9 it appears in the Editor. After I make changes in the picture I would like to be able to add it to the Organizer without having to open the Organier,Find the file on my computer and then see it in the Organizer.
I can edit an image in Editor to where it looks great, to include the contrast, brightness, shadows, etc. When I send it back to the Organizer, it look much too contrasty and dark. When I use the same images in a slideshow originating in Organizer, they still look too contrasty. Is there a way to correct this? I'm using PSE 10 on a Windows 7 -64 bit machine.
This should be an easy task and I am familiar with editing a photo taken from the organizer and then returning it to an album or folder. My problem is with a photo sent to me as an attachment to an email in another program (often Picasa). This photo can be opened in Elements Editor and worked with in the usual fashion but I am stumped on how to then move it in my Organizer and appropriate folder or album.
I have tried to save my changes made in the editor of Photoshop elements 12 to the organizer, saved in a version set. Does not seem to save, but can only find it when I click on 'Open recently edicted files in editor'. I have used Photoshop elements 10 and never had this problem
I have been using PSE 8.0 for three or four years now, and I have never experienced any problems with it. Today, after installed a Wacom Intuos Creative Pen Tablet, my PSE 8.0 would not open-- nor would Editor and Organizer. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program, renaming certain files (as read in other answers), creating shortcuts to bypass the Welcome Screen (which also will not appear), among other solutions that I read about for similar problems. Whenever I attempt to open Organizer, a crash report appears, stating that the program has quit unexpectedly--that's all it says. If I try to open PSE 8 or Editor, the circle next to my cursor appears for a moment, but soon it disappears without a single pop-up or explanation as to why the program won't open. Since I cannot access the Welcome Screen, I cannot locate the Preference file to change the name/delete it. If it matters, I use Windows 7.
Installed PSE 11. OS is Win 7. Worked ok a short time then got message "PSE 11 stopped working". I try to open file from Orginizer into Expert Editor and only get a blank screen now. Tried all three ways of opening into Editor. (Works ok in PSE 9). What other info do you need to solve this problem? This is the second time this has happened. The first time I believe it corrected with out any action on my part.
The Organizer and the Editor stopped working together in just 1 of my catalogs. It happens to be the catalog in which I have done the most image manipulations such as renaming, stacking, albums, rating, etc. Now, when I select a photo in Organizer and click on Fix, Edit, the Editor window comes up but the photo does not appear in Editor. The only way I can get an image into Editor is to pull it directly into Editor. Then, when I want to save it as a Version Set I have to choose File> Organize Open File in order to save the image as a version set. Other than deleting and re-creating the catalog, how can I get Editor to open the image from Organizer like it used to do?
I finally can get Organizer to run by using the new short cut I created but Editor refuses to display anything other than a small gray box on the upper right side of my desktop and a border that is missing a substantial amount of pieces!
PSE 10 & Lightroom 5...I import my photos to PSE10 organizer & use the editor for some corrections. I purchased Lightroom 5 because of its ease of exposure correction. I Imported the PSE 10 catalog to LR and make the exposure corrections. How do I get the corrections back to PSE?
the organizer has stopped sending photo to edit, full edit workspace opens with no photo. I can still pull a photo in from the edit workspace. i use photoshop elements 9
