Photoshop Elements :: Why Does Organizer Fail To Open From Start Screen
Jun 18, 2013
I have down loaded PSE11 for only a few days but suddenly when I try to open organizer from the start screen if fails to open successfully and leaves only a blank screen. I can only get into the organizer screen by first starting the editor screen and then getting into the organizer from the editor screen.
Suddenly my Photoshop Elements 8 Organiser section cannot be accessed directly from the Welcome Screen as it has always done regardless of which version I had used. I can only access the photos through the drop-down panel on the bottom left hand side of the Editor section. Not very convenient and there appears to be no chance of browsing through photos or accessing tagged photos.
Having installed Photoshop Elements 11(Windows 7) I cannot open the Organiser from the welcome screen. It can be opened via the Editor but few of the thumbnails are shown as pictures rather as empty squares. The situation does not improve with time but tends to get worse with pictures turning into squares. I have tried the tip with preferences but to no avail.
Photoshop Elements 8 crashes when trying to start Organizer. Funny, that starting the Photoshop Editor is not a problem and works fine.I reinstalled the software and then installed it again, but had no effect.
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!
After installing PSE11, when trying to start Organizer, I keep getting the message " cannot start online services---reinstall--". I have reinstalled many times, including once with no online services started after a restart of the computer. The Editor works fine. I am running a Dell with Windows 7.
I cannot start printing through neither CTRL+P, nor the context menu nor the menu. Organizer always crashes. This was not the case with PSE 10 and using the same printer.
I reinstalled the PSE12, and when I launch it I get to the Welcome Screen. But, when I click on Photo Editor, nothing happens, no error code. (Organizer starts)
In Photoshop Elements 11 for Dummies the main display area (Figure 1-2) has an area to the right with the headings Keyword Tags and Information, and down below that Image Keywords. My version of PSE 11, which I just bought, does not show this area to the right of the main display area. Also, the main display area includes a bunch of frames with names like "A_Taste_of_Sicily.mp3". Is this because my version of PSE 11 is different from the version used by the writers of the Dummies book or is there something I need to do first?
The problem is that the screen is only partly visible and it is the top half that is missing, thus the tool bar is not available. The usual dragging of the corner or edge does not work, so as it is this part of the programme is not usable at all. The settings (resolution etc) seems fine. Further more the problem is new, it has not happened previously. No such problems with the edit screen.
The icons don't come up at the top and bottom of the page in Organizer and I can't scroll to the bottom of the pagein Elements 11. It's like the entire page doesn't fit on the computer screen.
Not sure how this happened, but the top of my Elements 11 Organizer screen is off of the top of my desktop screen (OS Mavericks). I cannot resize or get to the minimize button to fix. I am stuck only seeing the bottom of the Organizer Screen. Organizer (which I use VERY OFTEN) is renedered useless until I can get a resolution to this.
I have Photoshop 11, running it on Windows 7. It has worked for about 18 months, but now system crashes on the welcome screen every time I click on the Organizer button
Elements 10 on a MAC, his organizer window appears on screen with the top line/menu bar having File, Edit, find, View etc. off the screen at the top and I can't move it down to display properly. I am not very familiar with a MAC being a PC user myself
I have adobe photoshop elements 11 running on my iMac.
My problem: when viewing the grid in my organizer albums, I can't see the bottom rows of photos-- I can see a slim line of the top of each photo but not the entire photo.
I've used the minimizer/maximizer green button in the left top corner-- not much changes between those views. I've moved my dock to the left of my screen instead of at the bottom. I've quit and restarted the application. Still can't see those bottom rows of pictures.
Perhaps the page is too large and the tools are above my screen. I can't access them, can't "Import" any of my pictures. I've been in "Edit" and done work there.But this is the first time I've tried to use the Organizer.
Am I able to change the background colour of the view screen in PSE 11 organiser? The current background is grey, which isn't a great colour to optimise viewing images. Black would be better.
Photoshop Elements 12 will not display photos in Organizer in full screen mode. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the application but it still doesn't work.
My pse9 organizer screen shifted a half page left and I can not seem to get it back. The computer has windows 7. I restarted the computer. I removed pse9 and reinstalled it. The editor screen works ok.
I have upgraded from pse9 to 11 and after selecting a photo in organiser then viewing in full screen and enlarging to 100% then exiting, organiser loses the highlight and reverts to the first photo. This also occurs when the photo is edited and saved you have to find where the editedd photo has gone to, it is time consuming when you have a large number of photos in the organiser. pse9 did not do this.Also pse11 does not sort photos properly by the shot date especially when the photos ard edited
PSE12 photoshop side is working fine, but the organizer won't open. I says there is a problem. I have updated the OS system and Adobe software and it still isn't working. I spent a long time editing a photo and now have nothing to show for it.
