Photoshop Elements :: Keyword Tags Didn't Get Converted Into People Tags
Oct 21, 2012
I have just upgraded my Swedish PSE7 to an English PSE11. Of course the people keyword tags did not get converted into people tags because People is called Folk in Swedish. I was not aware of this mechanism prior to upgrading. How can I convert those keyword tags now?
I have a huge number of photos in an Elements 9 catalog. Having downloaded the trial version of Elements 11 and opted to convert the catalog, I see that the 'people' tags now don't show. I know there is the new 'people' feature in v11, but I'd like to have the old people tags available there for clicking as well!
I have just upgraded from PSE 9 to PSE 11 and have imported some pictures that I have tagged in another program. Importing tags for everything other than people works fine (already used tags are recognized and reused). But importing tags for people proved to be a problem. They did not merge automatically with my previous people tags in PSE. My imported people tags ar now placed under "Imported Keyword Tags" in the "Media" workspace. How do I merge or move them to the "People" work space where the people tags for PSE 11 is placed?
I also wonder why people and other tags are put in different places. Is it possible to view all keyword tags in one list/place?
I imported a bunch of images (I had to re-create my catalog due to file system restructuring), the tags came in nicely, but a bunch are "People". How do I move those from "Keywords" to "People Tags"?
I just upgraded to PSE 12. So now all my organisation folders are under the "keyword" tag. And I have a lot of them. Of course they are organized in folder/subfolders. And the main ones are "places" "events". The same as the default ones in pse.
So is it possible to move categories/directories from the keyword tag to event/place/people tags (drag and drop doesn't work).
I'm using Organizer 11. First time evething was ok, persons/faces were detected correctly, then after a few month Organizer doesn't detected new faces and said every time that all faces were detected already also when I imported new fotos from my camera...
(I use the german version, so I can not tell you the exact error message in english, hope you unserstand what I mean.)
As I found no solution, I created a new catalog and imported all photos including their tags newly to this empty catalog. But allready tagged persons are not persons anymore - their tags are now in the "imported keyword tags" (German: "Importierte Stichwort-Tags") and not in the "person/face tags".
How can I tell the organizer that the imported Tags are persons/faces to having no douplicates in the person-tags and normal keyword-tags?
Here some Background Information about my system:
PSE 11, Windows 8, 64 Bit 8GB, Intel i7. 3 catalogs with each 8000-10000 photos.
Now, in the Media view, over in the Tags/Info pane, I have Events, Other, and Places Tags, but no People Tags. However, when I look at individual photos in my converted catalogs, the people's names are still attached to them; the people icon is still associated with each photo so marked.
In PSE 10, when you imported new photos, you could drag People Tags from the Tags pane to one or more selected photos to quickly tag the subjects. Now, apparently, I'll have to group any new photos with people in them by hand and retype names over and over again — although those tags are already available in the catalog.
This is clearly insane. Surely Adobe hasn't taken something easy (dragging a people tag over from the right pane to a newly added photo) and turned it into something cumbersome and inefficient?
How do I get the Media view to populate the People Tags in the Tags pane along with the Existing Events, Other, and Places Tags?
I have used multiple versions of Lightroom (2, 3, 4, and now 5). Why can't I add keyword tags to multiple photos? I know that it can be done while importing, but I usually import a whole day's worth of pictures at one time and they don't require all the same keyword tags. The ones that are common I do add during import. I used to be able to highlight the photos I wanted to add tags to, go to the metadata and find find the list of keywords applied to those photos. Tags that were not common to all photos has an * beside them. If I wished to have one of these tags for all the selected photos I just removed the *, otherwise I added the new tag to the list.
I upgraded from PSE9 to PSE11 and now the tags are separated on the right side, with the people tags below a line from which you can no longer add these tags to photos.
How am I supposed to add people tags to new photos?
Running PSE 11 on Win 8. Have many People Tags entered over the years, but now they do not show in the area to the right where all other Tags are listed. I can no longer add a people tag to any photos.
I upgraded from Elemetns 10 to Elements 11, but cannot find the "people tags" (Family, Friends, etc) that I had with Elements 10. How can I tag photos with the tags that were set up in Elemetns 10?
I've upgraded from PSE 6 to PSE 11. My people tags have carried over, but are not showing properly in the "People" view.
All my people tags are still present on the pictures and I can search using them by selecting "Advanced Search" in the media view. However, when I go to the People view, the only stacks I see are ones I have created in PSE 11 that were not tagged in my previous version. The names of all my previously tagged people only show when I click to view "Groups". Clicking on the name in "Groups" simply leads to the message "No people exist in this group" - even though the tag clearly shows on the images in the Media view.
Is there any way to convert the people listed as groups back to people tags that will be recognised by PSE? Even when I run the facial recognition software and tag people here, they still do not show up in the People view if they were previously tagged in PSE 6.
I have just replaced my old laptop and wish to export the people tags on the desktop to the laptop. I had no problem exporting/importing the normal keyword tags, but cannot export/import the people tags.
I have just installed PS El:11 and convered the catalogue from PS El:10 however whilst all the photo's are showing none appear under the tags created in PS El:10 However all the tags have transferred to 11 but no photos appear to be linked - what have I done wrong and how do I get them linked without going through 4k + of photo's to re-tag them!
In the Organizer, what is the difference between image tags and keyword tags? How do I use each? I only seem to be able to find references to keyword tags in any of the documentation, but "image tags" show in the space below "keyword tags."
I have just downloaded Elements 12 using my previous version catalogue of images in Elements 9 however the keyword tags have not come across. How do I transfer them?
I have just upgraded from Elements 9 to Elements 11. I have converted all my catalogs and all the images appear OK when I open the catalogs. What does not appear is a list of categories and Keyword tags.how I get these to appear.
On my first two pictures I put the names of the people in the picture as keyword tag. I have tried to remove the tag from the drop down menu but this does not work. I get an error when I auto try to find tags. Do I have to delete both pictures to get this out of the file? Will this remove these names from the keyword tag drop down window?
2. why aren't all my photos with keyword tags being imported with those tags, I see the tags when i look in Microsoft explorer and in version 6 but I don't see them in version 11. 3. In version 6 all the keyword tags were on the left, now the people tags are not shown and I have to press "people" at the top of the display in order to see the people related tags, and then for them, it doesn't show the tags tool bar on the right.
Using Elements 11 when creating a new catalog I do not get the Events, Other or Places tags . What is given are Color, Nature, Other and Photography all these in the new catalog are colored blue. I do get People Tags in both catalog..Why do you not get the Standard Keyword Tags
