Whats Included

Adobe Photoshop Elements 2020

Q: What is the difference between Photoshop Elements and Premier Elements? Why do some Adobe packages have BOTH Photoshop Elements and Premier Elements?

A: Photoshop Elements is a photo editing and organizing program. Fabulous product. I've used it for years and it just keeps getting better. Premier Elements is a video/movie editing program. Create home videos by editing and "stitching" Shorter video clips together into one production. There is a cost saving if you buy both programs together in one package. But if you only take photos, or have no need for a video editing program, just buy the Photoshop Elements. The disks include both Windows and Mac versions.

Q: What format is this in? How do I install on my MacBook?

A: I bought it as a gift. The recipient told me that, although there is a CD in the box, you don’t have to use that. There are instructions on how to download it from the Internet and install it without needing the disc.

Q: Is this software version a one-time purchase (or I will have to renew the license annually in the future?) Thank you!

A: One time purchase.

Q: Is this a subscription software that is good for limited time and needs to be renewed each year?

A: When you buy it, you buy the license, it's yours.

Q: I have a Mac and a PC (with old Photoshop on it). Can I download this to both my computers?

A: For this version (2020), you need to buy one copy for Windows and one copy for Mac O/S. You can't buy one version and have it work on both types of operating systems like before. I already talked to Adobe customer service about this. I wanted to install Photoshop Elements on both my Windows PC and my iMac.

Q: Will Elements 2020 work with macOS 10.15.3 Catalina?

A: Yes.

Q: Will this version read raw files from Nikon d750? Rollie

A: Yes,this can read uncompressed images ( RAW files) captured by any digital cameras or scanner. There is an option in the file menu "open in camera raw." It appears to be very similar to the function in other Adobe Photoshop programs.

Q: if i buy the cd of this (PE 20) and install it on my desktop which has a cd drive, what do i do if i want to use it on my dell laptop which doesn't have a cd drive?

A: Adobe offers an online download, but since nobody at Best Buy or Adobe could find the serial number, it wouldn’t work. Best Buy gave me a refund.

Photo Edits Made Simple
---SETUP--- The setup of Adobe Photoshop is quick. After going to the indicated website, enter your activation code and download the software. I recommend you create an Adobe account so that you can have it registered under your email of choice, allowing you to install from one computer and reinstall in another when needed. This also keeps your activation code on file in case you lose it. ---FEATURES--- The key feature of Adobe Photoshop Elements 2020 is the guided options for those new to photo-editing and the advanced features for those who have more experience. This product does not require any subscription for use. This product works on Mac and Windows PC. I installed in on a Mac Book Pro. ---PERFORMANCE--- The performance of Adobe Photoshop is great. Some of the newest features include automatic colorization of photos (not just color-correct, but changing colors to things in photos), one-click subject selection (for easy removal or transfer to another photo), automatic smooth skin feature (for a perfect look), and newer auto creations. Additionally, the performance is faster and has expanded support for HEIF and HEVC files. The guided options take you step by step for things you want to do with the help of automaticity. ---EXPECTATIONS--- The product meets my expectations. I enjoy photo editing and I started my passion for it with an older version of Adobe Photoshop. Now, in the 2020 version, things that I had to learn how to do manually are automatic and will make you feel like a pro. What I find most impressive is the removal of unwanted objects or people. With 1 click, people are gone and your photo looks natural. If you have the time, you can improve the results with easy to use tools in the guided section of the program. ---VALUE--- The price for Adobe Photoshop is a great price if you aren’t looking to pay for a monthly subscription to the cloud-based programs. ---APPROVAL--- I highly recommend this product for people who want to edit photos but don’t know where to begin. The guided features will welcome you. As you learn, you can move over to the advanced mode and feel more confident if you are ever ready to try the monthly subscription version.

Christmas gift for my 7 year old daughter
I purchased this item for my 7 year old daughter for Christmas. I am a photographer and I use Lightroom and Photoshop for my editing. My daughter also takes photographs and enjoys editing with PS Elements. It is a little simpler than Photoshop Classic. I highly recommend it. I will attach an image my daughter took and edited with this program.

More helpful; more features; more gifts.
I’ve been playing with Adobe’s Photoshop Elements 2020 (APE) for well over a decade even though I would never be considered a heavy user. This newest version adds only a few more features to last year’s version, although it sure seems somewhat more helpful and more generous with its useful tools. Auto Creations has matured to being a premier feature. Just opening up the program this week to see what I should comment on, I got gifted with 3 beautiful and unusual photo tricks for my consideration using MY pictures. I got 3 of my photos turned into great pictures without breaking a sweat. Wow. Now, that’s both useful and inviting. Who do I thank for the gifts? What’s new (that I care about)? Like I just noted, those Auto-creations are sweet. I’m tempted to keep quitting the program to see if they offer me some new gift photo trickery upon re-opening. The Smart Tagging is great, mostly automated but ultimately tedious if you want to use it effectively. There’s the automatic skin smoothing which may prove useful. Step-by-step guides have been added in object removal, which I put to immediate use. Pretty nice. I tend to use recomposing a lot, and being able to protect spaces or people makes the process less effort. Photo color changes used to be time consuming but now Auto-photo colorization makes it less of a chore. I’ve rediscovered panoramas and find them easier to use with more control over the outcome. In the space of a few hours I created a stack of photos for visiting relatives. All of them were special and unique. The list of added features is not long, but the range and usefulness of these easy-to-use tools is truly awe inspiring. There are now 55 step-by-step Guided Edits and I find the need for most of them at some point in my amateur photography, Whether its removing that intruder into my scene, or creating more dynamic looking photos or just fixing closed eyes, I know I’ve got a tool box for it all in Photoshop Elements. My recent photo activity yielded a few “painterly” effects, looking like I spent hours of effort on each photo. Aggravating stuff: I’ve disliked “Organizer” forever (on the Mac). Only this new iteration and it’s personalized auto-creations have allowed me to forgive …. a little. Upon initial Startup, Organizer starts loading in my photos with no guidance to how long (more than an hour for a few thousand photos) and while it’s in its processing you can’t move it, you can’t close the window, you can’t get any feedback about what’s happening and how long it will go on. Have I locked up? When it’s finished, all that organizing results in a very very long list of folders. In a different view, I still can’t really explain what I’m looking at. Contextual descriptions are not Adobe’s thing. I still find it easier to initiate editing and photo manipulation by finding my pictures in my more familiar PHOTOS App on my Mac. I don’t need to use Organizer at all, which for me is a good thing. Instead, I can go into Mac’s PHOTO APP, select a photo, and in the top MENU, go to IMAGE drop-down and choose EDIT WITH . . . . There is PhotoShop Elements (or I can look for it) and immediately there is my picture sitting in an APE window ready for all those tricks. SUMMARY: All-in-all, the added features are not extensive, but if you haven’t purchased the last couple of versions, you’re going to be pleasantly shocked by the huge array of easy-to-use tools. As a person with last year’s version, I’m still willing to applaud the few goodies that have been added. I’m less aggravated with Organizer (because I usually skirt around it) and all those automated and/or Guided Edits make Adobe’s Photoshop Elements still special.
