Photoshop Elements :: Copying Picture From Catalogue Into Slideshow
Mar 9, 2013
I thought I was copying a picture from my Elements 10 catalogue into a slideshow I was creating under "My Pictures". I now want to add text to it. I opened organizer, found the photo, opened full photo edit and got the message that the file was missing. I browsed for it, found it quickly in the my pictures slideshow file, clickec and got a message asking if I wanted to reconnect it. I clicked yes and got the message that it was in the catalogue. Even more disturbing, I got a message that all files were disconnected. Neither the Missing Manual nor Kelby even have the words reconnect or disconnect in the index.
When I add media to elements 9 slide show, some of the pictures are cropped at top and bottom. The pics show fine in organizer. How do I get the complete pic added to slide show?
I created a slide show in Elements 9. the show worked normally when viewed as a slide show, but when saved it as a wmv file, some of the pictures were completely black. How can I correct this ?
I have two very large LR4 catalogues. I would like to copy about a dozen photos (each with extensive adjustments) from one catalogue to another. Is there a way to do that without having to export/import the entire catalogue?
I have just got a new computer and re-installed Lightroom on it. I now need to transfer my catalogue and files over.
I already know I need to copy and move them over but I have a question that probably seems very simple/obvious to most.
When I copy my catalogue file, WHERE am i supossed to copy it to on the new computer? In Pictures, Lightroom, there already exists a catalogue but obvioulsy this is not the one I want there. If I move my old catalogue to the same place (along with the other files) there will be 2 catalogues in there. How do I make sure Lightroom reads from the old catalogue I am copying over.
I currently have two external hard drives where I have all my bird photos classified into folders by the name of the bird. There are more or less a hundred. I have one external hard drive where I import all the photos to and the other external where I backup the first external hard drive every night. They are getting full and I will soon have to purchase two more, but I was wondering how I could export all the folder hierarchy into the new external hard drive. It surely will be a chore to have to create each one again.
I'm trying to layer them all on top of each other.
When I copy one partially transparent GIF and paste it on to the second partially transparent GIF the transparent section turns white and is no longer transparent.
Therefore covering up the contents of the prior GIF.
In short, please have a look at the three attached pictures, I would like to have all three on top of each other showing all buttons.
I am a Paramedic Instructor and want to clean up some heart rhythms to make them more neat and presentable for use during class. Below is the sort of image I would be working with.
What I would like to do is remove only the black and gray lines (when they print out of the EKG machine some lines have some gray in them) and place them on a neater cleaner background as below
(The image above I found on a website where the creator has 100's of EKGs that this has been done with, but have been unable to get him to tell me how it was done)
Also let me know if another Adobe product would be more useful in this situation. I have CS6 Master Collection so you know what programs I have available to use.
Is there a way in the Develop Module to press the Previous button at the bottom of the page to copy all the settings from the previous picture used, but NOT the CROP?
Basically I do a lot of dog rescue/foster stuff and doing videos (even if they are slide shows) of the dogs really get adopted. I am "ok" at doing a normal slide show. Here's a link for one I have already done
But, I would like to "spice" them up a little. One thing someone suggested was doing a slide show, like above, but having multiple pictures on the screen at once. For instance a picture appears in the Upper left, then upper right, then lower left, then lower right. So there are 4 pictures that are on the screen at the same time, but appear at different times. Like if you were showing some one snapshots and setting them on a table, with some covering up others.
I have created a slide show by Inserting Media file to Timeline, Insert Photos. I then Share, and then Create Video File. This is a great product, so easy. However I noticed that the time delay on each picture frame is about 3 seconds. I have manually increased each slide to 5 seconds using the slider on the timeline. But this is cumbersome. Is there a place to change this default 3 seconds to what I want in the software? I cannot find it.
I have got elements 8.I have a string of pictures all marked with a question mark. I am unable to put any more pictures in, as it keeps coming up with "corrupt catalogue". I have tried "repair", but with no success. I have uninstalled & reinsallled the program, but the pictures are still there!!I can't find where the pictures are saved on my computer....
What is the default catalog location for photoshop Elements 9 and what is the filename? I have a Mac. I have searched my hard disc for filenames similar to the catalog names and could not find any.
I am trying to set up new folders in Elements 11. The appear in my pictures but will not show up in the catalog. I cannot find a place to set it up in the organizer. It will let me rename a folder and then add photos but I cannot set up a new folder
Some of my thumbnails/files are missing from my catalog but it won't let me import them because it says they are there. They are not hidden and the links aren't broken. They don't show up at all in any view. The jpg files are still in the folder on my desktop just not in the catalog. When this happened before, I just deleted that catalog and started fresh but now I have too much work in this one to just delete it.
I am installing LR4. I tried to update the catalog.I received the message that LR encountered problems when trying to update the format of the catalog file and cannot use this catalog in this version of Lightroom. When I click on the See Adobe Technote button, I received the message that that file is unavailable from the Adobe Website. I don't want to loose all my catalog information from my previous instralling of LR2.7.
I am using PSE 11 on Windows to perform a full catalog backup to extenal HDD. The backup complete successfully. I then move teh external HDD and Restore the catalog using PSE 11 on Max OS X (Maverick). After selecting the source and desination for the restore, I get an error message that the selected HDD does not contain a valid backup. I have twice backed up the catalog. The folders on the HDD contqain more than 300GB of data from teh backup. I get no error during the backup process.
I'm using PSE10 on a Win7 (64bit) OS. When I delete a picture (from catalogue and harddrive) the PSE-Organizer tends to jump down several pictures (Haven't been able to determine a fixed number), so I have to go up again and browse through the same pics a couple of times.
When I start the catalogue full backup process PS9 calculates catalogue size as 0, and stops there, offering 'cancel' or 'return'. There are hundreds of pictures in the catalogue..
What is the best procedure for moving catalog and files from a Vista system with PSE9 to a windows 8 system running PSE 11? Will copy and restore be less problematic than Easy transfer?
