➡ Check out my New Tool that makes learning Photoshop Elements Super Easy! Here is my video about it on my HTG Photo channel ua-cam.com/video/-cJ2AviZNI8/v-deo.html
MY ELEMENTS HAS CHOKED ON MAC! I have PS elements 2020. I can no longer upload TIFF files. Adobe Help has told me the latest IOS version Monterey 12.0.1 is not compatible with PSE. This includes PSE 2022. Specs are only macOS 10.15 or macOS 11. They suggested I downgrade to previous IOS version as they have not got around to testing with Monterey. They may find a fix for 2022 but no promises a fix coming for 2020. They suggested I download PSE 2022 trial - Also didn't work. My parting comment to Adobe help was that I have owned PSE 2020 for only 1 year and already redundant. As apple often upgrade their operating system PSE 2022 will soon be incompatible with the next newer version of IOS. WTF. This is amazingly slack from such a big company. They have not even bothered to test with the latest IOS AND they have produced such an unstable package with zero support.BE WARNED!
Another great informative video, George, thank you. Some time ago you expressed the opinion that it looks like Adobe is pretty much through upgrading this product for photographers and is more focusing on cute social media projects instead. This video reinforces that opinion. While the warp feature may be very useful for graphic artists, the artistic transformations, while quick and easy can be done in a more useful way with a program like Dynamic Auto Paint. The rest is fluff as far as I can see. Thanks for providing a basis for users to decide if it is worth the upgrade.
Thanks! and I agree. This update is useful for people who want to do creative stuff like I do in Photoshop Elements but it is a worthless update for people who are doing primarily photography projects.
This is a great tool for creating images that can be used on a website and is what I use almost every day. I make all of the images in my training courses, all of the images for my websites, and all of the images here on UA-cam in Photoshop Elements.
Hello George!!! Thank you for spending the time to really cut through the reality of this upgrade. The enhanced warp tool is enough for me to upgrade (Plus the discount Adobe gives you to upgrade...LOL!) I also really like the animated effect as well as the art looks. I feel the pressure is coming in on Adobe to compete with some of the AI programs out there. It is long over due on the warp tool but will so useful I will certainly take it! One question, it seems like on every update they make claims to enhance their "Slide show function". I don't know if it was PS elements or Premiere elements who make the claim. Have you checked out this feature for any improvements??? Thank you for all you do! Rich
Hi Rich, they added 5 new templates to the Slideshow but they haven't added back any functionality. The old slideshow from PSE 10 was great, but there hasn't been a good slideshow app since then. I will be doing a video at some point on how to make a slideshow in Premiere Elements, that is the way to go now as it gives you complete creative freedom.
I've been waiting for you do test this 2022. I'm in agreement about the Image Warp and the Artistic Effects but the rest- Naw! Thank you very much,George.
Can you tell me if 2022 works well with Mac OS Big Sur 11.4? My last upgrade was to 2020 but it was so slow that I went back to using 2018. Thank you for this review.
Sorry Sandy, I am on Windows so no idea. I do know that PSE is designed for Windows then copied over to the Mac so it will always run better on a Windows machine.
Like your reviews. Does 2022 have where you can remove a person and it auto fills it with the existing background? I have a photo I want to remove people, they are standing in front of a white pleated curtain. Thanks!
Hey can you help me fix this?, cus when i try to download my custom resourcepack in my server it says "server resourcepack couldn't be applied any functionality that requires custom resource pack might not work as expected" can you help?
Hi, it depends on how your server is hosted. Some servers require additional software installed like Bukket or other to be able to run resource packs. And also some resource packs require additional software to run the pack, like stuff made for Fabric or Optifine. Check that stuff first to make sure all needed software is intstalled.
Constant "Expert Mode does it better" chatter cracks me up. If you were so good at Expert Mode then you would be using the REAL Photoshop and not this poor person who can't afford to subscribe mode.
Actually I also have the full Adobe Creative Suite and I do videos for Adobe Photoshop as well. Lots of people either can't afford or don't want to do a subscription program so I help them get the most out of the program they want to use.
SVP I'm trying to manipulate an image to relocate the fingers with the lasso tool. I get: 'warning: no more than 50% pixels selected. the selection edges will not be visible.' How can I fix this? I don't know what it means.
Hi Louise, this is just a quick overview of the new stuff in 2022. The program can do amazing stuff, just check out my channel for hundreds of videos on using PSE.
I agree, if I didn't need to purchase every year for these UA-cam videos I would only upgrade every 3rd version unless something new that I really need is introduced. This time around I really like that image warp and I would upgrade to 2022 anyway just for that one feature.
Hi George, I just upgraded and downloaded Photoshop Elements 2022 after owning the 2018 version on my old computer. I bought a new computer several months with a Nvidia Geforce RTX graphics processor. Is there a way to change the GPU in Preferences? When I look in the Performance tab it indicates the detected graphics processor is an Intel (R) UHD Graphics Processor, but my computer is using a Nvidia Geforce RTX Graphics Processor. My old computer with Photoshop Elements 2018 was using the Intel Graphics Processor. I'm not sure why it's recognizing the old graphics processor instead of the Nvidia graphics processor. Any idea on how I can change that in Preferences so it will recognize the Nvidia Graphics Processor? Roger
Hi Roger, I don't know of any way to force Photoshop Elements to use a particular graphics processor. Keep in mind that PSE isn't a performance program and it may not recognize higher end cards, or it may use them but list a more generic card. Adobe Photoshop is different, it will recognize the latest cards since it is a performance based program.
@@HTGGeorge Thank you for your reply, George. That makes sense. I didn't think about PSE not being a performance based program. I upgraded to a new computer because I use ON1 Photo Raw as my photo editor and my old computer was running slow using a lower end graphics card. I enjoy your PSE tutorials as I've been a subscriber for many years and have learned a lot from watching your tutorials. One of my favorite things to do in PSE is using the Out of Bounds Guided Edit to make a 3D effect from my images. I've gotten pretty good at making some unique 3D effects. I've heard you mention frequently that a lot of the guided edits can be made easier and better in expert mode. Would this apply to the Out of Bounds feature and if so would you be able to produce a tutorial demonstrating how it could be done in expert mode? Roger
@@HTGGeorge George, Thanks for your tutorial link on the pop out portrait effect that can be performed entirely in expert mode. I've been experimenting with it the last few days and have gotten familiar with the technique. I may have a suggestion for a future tutorial after looking back at some of my past special effects images that I created. There was a video I remember watching several years ago which showed how to make a mirror box effect in Photoshop. I was able to produce the same effect using Photoshop Elements. I thought you might be able to expand on that technique and perhaps add some of your own insight and tips for improving on the final effects of creating this mirror box effect using Photoshop Elements. The finished product really produces a pretty cool effect when used with the proper image. Here's the video tutorial link for that ua-cam.com/video/yTDQ6EsmT_s/v-deo.html Roger
Thanks for the detailed tutorial George it was very helpful as I'm new to PS - One question I have about PS Elements 2022 that I haven't been able to figure out is how to enable my Neural Filters; it doesn't show up at all on this version for me and nothing has been successful so far. Any feedback helps. Thanks!
Hi, Photoshop Elements doesn't have Neural Filters, that is over in Adobe Photoshop, different program. But there are several things that are similar in Photoshop Elements like Smooth Skin and Colorize Photo in the Enhance menu.
Thanks so much for this review. I'm still using Elements 14 and have Lightroom for most of my photography corrections. I'm always a bit reluctant to jump on an update because I fear them removing something useful to give 'fluff' stuff I will never use. Apparently it's time to upgrade...I see 2022 seems to be download only. I like keeping hardcopies (like a USB if not disks) of programs just in case. Can you save the software to a USB in order to reinstall if necessary?? (ie, in case an internet connection is NOT available but you need to reload it.)
You can save the downloaded file anywhere you want. I put a copy onto my backup drive. Then it is easy to reinstall in the future if you want. The downloader installer file is actually quite small, what it does is to go online and download all the files from Adobe during installation. So to reinstall you will need an active internet connection, and of course you will also need your license key so make sure you put that into a file and keep it with the program download file.
Nice job, as usual, in showing us the new features. Thanks. Too bad none of Adobe's new features merit the cost of upgrading to this version by this user.
Thanks! And I agree. The only really useful new feature is the image warp, for me that is a great new feature but for most people it would never be used.
Hello. Nice concise update on the newest features for Adobe Elements 2022. Appreciate the tip for those of us who can wait, and save a few dollars for an after Christmas purchase. Do you have a similar review on Adobe Premiere 2022?
Thanks George - always appreciate your reviews. I think I will save the cost of the upgrade as the new features aren't something I would use very much. Thanks again.
If I didn't need to upgrade each year for these videos I would probably only upgrade every 3 years or so, unless there was an important security or performance improvement.
Thank you. Excellent video. Do you have any video of print settings for sublimation with ps elements?. I have a f170 printer but the colors are to dark. Idk how to convert rgb yo cmyk. I’m lost. Thanks in advance
Well, you hit one of the limitations of Photoshop Elements, it doesn't work in CMYK mode, it only works in RGB. If you need CMYK then you will need to use a different program. A good choice for an inexpensive program is Affinity Photo. If you are working professionally then you should be using Adobe Photoshop, it is well worth it in a business setting.
Good review. I just upgraded from 2018 and purchased your 2021 course. Very helpful with finding and using tools. Of course if your not creative or know what you want to do with photos then no amount of training helps. I am enjoying your videos and have learned much. Having fun with old poorly taken photos and attempting to make something from nothing. Learning how important snapping the shot is now.
I seen that Photoshop Elements 2022 is on a very good sale ($59.99) and just by watching the new features, Im hooked on what I could do with these features. Thanks for sharing the features. Been using 2020 Elements for awhile
You're welcome! I have a bunch of image editing programs on my computer including the full Adobe Creative Suite, but Photoshop Elements is my favorite.
@@DragonSlayerProduction If I need something for print I will go to Adobe Photoshop, otherwise I prefer to use PSE. I like that it is a smaller program, so it runs faster, does most of what I ever need, and doesn't get in the way with too many options. Sometimes less really is better.
Hi Alex, since I always want to give correct information I did a bit of digging and came up with this: "Many public figures and institutions have taken sides in the debate; Steve Wilhite, the creator of the format, gave a speech at the 2013 Webby Awards arguing that the soft g pronunciation is correct. " So there you go, the man who invented the format says it is pronounced jiff.
Excellent tutorial! Thanks! I never even considered using anything but Expert Mode on PS. But your tutorial opened up a whole new window of opportunity for me to look at. Also, I had never seen or used Control+T before. Never knew that was even an option. So that was cool. And several of these features will be very useful to me. Thanks for making this guide!
Esto es más de lo mismo, solo unos cuantos efectos y un limpiado de cara de versiones anteriores, en lo importante como es las herramientas de edición, los 16bits, etc, nada de nada.
@@HTGGeorge Lo dicho un saca dinero anual por pequeños efectos que la mayoría de las veces ni se utiliza, lo importante en un programa de este tipo y con ese precio es tener una herramientas de edición sin capar, no es aceptable esta politica de adobe.
@@caimac You should take a look at Affinity Photo, it costs less, gives free updates, and does a better job with photo editing affinity.serif.com/en-us/photo/
@@HTGGeorge Gracias es el que uso, pero tengo PS Elements en su versión de 2019, y comparándolas veo que es un verdadero engaño al usuario de ahí que dejara de actualizarlo. Gracias Saludos.
I think I may have to upgrade because of the problems I'm having with the current version. I cannot reset the settings in the Hue/Saturation layer adjustment, unless I double click on the eye icon. Much more irritating though is that after making a selection then very likely when creating a Layer via Copy the selection is not there. This also happens when I do the Cntl/Alt/Shift & E shortcut. I re-installed the program but it did not solve the problem. So, I have to save the document then close PSE and re-open it. It then works OK - for a while! Have you ever had such a problem, George?
Hi Peter, sorry but I haven't come across those errors. The first thing I would try is when the program is launching hold down ctrl+shift+alt to bring up the reset dialog box. Use that to reset the program back to its default settings. Often that will fix odd problems. Aside from that it may be a version issue, if you are using PSE 15 it was a bit glitchy. Also one of the things that Adobe does each year in their updates is to stay current with Windows updates, so if you get too far out of date there could be compatibility issues showing up.
@@HTGGeorge I totally agree with that. I wish Elements would offer a link for making helpful suggestions. Their black & white to color could use a couple of more convenient features. More information if you would like to know.
Hello, Love your tutorials! I've learned a lot of it :) I've got pse2022 and now I want to know if you can copie just a layerstyle to a empty layer and use the warp (or any other style) on only the shadow. If the answer is Yes I hope you will make a tutorial of it. Thanks!
@@HTGGeorge I've found another way to do it ;) I put a layerstyle at a picture/photo, (close al the other layers) I save that as .PNG then I open this .PNG. I select the photo (not the shadow) delete the photo . I save the layerstyle as .PNG so I can use it like I want.
@@dejonglexmond If all you want is a shadow you can make better shadows without using Layer Styles. Here are a couple of videos about that ua-cam.com/video/fsqf7rr79GM/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/YoJfPh_4M2I/v-deo.html
Only if you like the new features. For me the Image Warp is worth the upgrade, but you may not need that. So take a look at the new features and use that to decide. Here is my video for new features in 2021 ua-cam.com/video/JvAZZdK0zEg/v-deo.html
I’m trying to learn how to you use the vapor wave edits and some of the edits options for different types of editing an it’s a little hard I was also trying to learn how to use the lightning edit on adobe premier elements
Photoshop Elements only edits in 16 bit in the Camera Raw window. The rest of PSE edits in 8 bit. You can find the 16 bit setting at the bottom middle of the Camera Raw window. If you really need 16 bit I would recommend moving to a different program. Adobe Photoshop is the obvious choice, but for a whole lot less money Affinity Photo is a great option.
@@ormonde2007 The problem is that Adobe doesn't consider PSE as an advanced program, they have Adobe Photoshop for that. They consider PSE as being for amateurs and light hobbiests. They expect anyone who reallly wants to handle high quality photo editing will be using Adobe Photoshop.
@@HTGGeorge I used to rent the creative suite, guess I'm old-fashioned I preferred owning software. I rent a music program from them. Thank you very much for responding

Also, I had never seen or used Control+T before. Never knew that was even an option. So that was cool. And several of these features will be very useful to me. Thanks for making this guide!
You're welcome Lewis! Here is a video I did on using keyboard shortcuts ua-cam.com/video/LilC0eYwL-Y/v-deo.html
Thanks George! I am very excited to see the warp tool with this update. You are correct in saying it's long overdue!
You're welcome!
Esto es más de lo mismo, solo unos cuantos efectos y un limpiado de cara de versiones anteriores, en lo importante como es las herramientas de edición, los 16bits, etc, nada de nada.
That's how Adobe does it, small updates in each new version with the occasional great new feature like the image warp in 2022
@@HTGGeorge Lo dicho un saca dinero anual por pequeños efectos que la mayoría de las veces ni se utiliza, lo importante en un programa de este tipo y con ese precio es tener una herramientas de edición sin capar, no es aceptable esta politica de adobe.
@@caimac You should take a look at Affinity Photo, it costs less, gives free updates, and does a better job with photo editing affinity.serif.com/en-us/photo/
@@HTGGeorge Gracias es el que uso, pero tengo PS Elements en su versión de 2019, y comparándolas veo que es un verdadero engaño al usuario de ahí que dejara de actualizarlo. Gracias Saludos.
I usually recommend only updating every 3rd year or so.
I think I may have to upgrade because of the problems I'm having with the current version. I cannot reset the settings in the Hue/Saturation layer adjustment, unless I double click on the eye icon. Much more irritating though is that after making a selection then very likely when creating a Layer via Copy the selection is not there. This also happens when I do the Cntl/Alt/Shift & E shortcut. I re-installed the program but it did not solve the problem. So, I have to save the document then close PSE and re-open it. It then works OK - for a while! Have you ever had such a problem, George?
Hi Peter, sorry but I haven't come across those errors. The first thing I would try is when the program is launching hold down ctrl+shift+alt to bring up the reset dialog box. Use that to reset the program back to its default settings. Often that will fix odd problems. Aside from that it may be a version issue, if you are using PSE 15 it was a bit glitchy. Also one of the things that Adobe does each year in their updates is to stay current with Windows updates, so if you get too far out of date there could be compatibility issues showing up.
Hi George, I am using 2021 on Win10. Thanks for the tip, though, which I will try. Fingers crossed!
@@peterhead9981 You may also want to try removing any plugins, just in case a compatibility issue sprung up with Windows updates.
Thanks George. Appreciative of the new image warp.
You/re welcome Belinda!
Interesting but not much to offer. I will stay with 2021 and wait for 2023.
I usually recommend updating every 3rd version or so, except that in this case that image warp is worth the price.
@@HTGGeorge I totally agree with that. I wish Elements would offer a link for making helpful suggestions. Their black & white to color could use a couple of more convenient features. More information if you would like to know.
Hello, Love your tutorials! I've learned a lot of it :)
I've got pse2022 and now I want to know if you can copie just a layerstyle to a empty layer and use the warp (or any other style) on only the shadow. If the answer is Yes I hope you will make a tutorial of it. Thanks!
No, you can't separate the layer from the layer style in Photoshop Elements. You can do that in the more advanced Adobe Photoshop
@@HTGGeorge I've found another way to do it ;) I put a layerstyle at a picture/photo, (close al the other layers) I save that as .PNG then I open this .PNG. I select the photo (not the shadow) delete the photo . I save the layerstyle as .PNG so I can use it like I want.
@@dejonglexmond If all you want is a shadow you can make better shadows without using Layer Styles. Here are a couple of videos about that ua-cam.com/video/fsqf7rr79GM/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/YoJfPh_4M2I/v-deo.html
Does it make sense to upgrade from 2020 version to 2022?
Only if you like the new features. For me the Image Warp is worth the upgrade, but you may not need that. So take a look at the new features and use that to decide. Here is my video for new features in 2021 ua-cam.com/video/JvAZZdK0zEg/v-deo.html

@@jillianculver1376 Thanks!
@howtoguru I would like to know about a lot if you answer any of you viewers questions !!
@@jillianculver1376 Hi Jillian, I try to answer as many questions as I can
I’m trying to learn how to you use the vapor wave edits and some of the edits options for different types of editing an it’s a little hard I was also trying to learn how to use the lightning edit on adobe premier elements
Where is 16-bit editing?
Photoshop Elements only edits in 16 bit in the Camera Raw window. The rest of PSE edits in 8 bit. You can find the 16 bit setting at the bottom middle of the Camera Raw window. If you really need 16 bit I would recommend moving to a different program. Adobe Photoshop is the obvious choice, but for a whole lot less money Affinity Photo is a great option.
Forgot to mention, you also can save to different bit depths with some image times at the Save dialog box, for instance BMP can save to 16 and 24 bit
@@HTGGeorge I'll check that out. Adobe should have stepped up to 16-bit editing of raw files
@@ormonde2007 The problem is that Adobe doesn't consider PSE as an advanced program, they have Adobe Photoshop for that. They consider PSE as being for amateurs and light hobbiests. They expect anyone who reallly wants to handle high quality photo editing will be using Adobe Photoshop.
@@HTGGeorge I used to rent the creative suite, guess I'm old-fashioned I preferred owning software. I rent a music program from them. Thank you very much for responding
