Chapter 2. Basic Organizing > Getting started

Getting started

For the exercises in this lesson you’ll be working in the Elements Organizer.

1.
If the Organizer is still open from the previous exercise, skip to step 3; if not, start Photoshop Elements by doing one of the following:

  • On Windows, either double-click the shortcut on your desktop, or choose Start > All Programs > Adobe Photoshop Elements 10.

  • On Mac OS, either click the Photoshop Elements 10 icon in the Dock or choose Photoshop Elements 10 from the Apple > Recent Items > Applications menu.

Note

Before you start working on this lesson, make sure that you’ve installed the software on your computer from the application CD (see the Photoshop Elements 10 documentation) and that you have correctly copied the Lessons folder from the CD in the back of this book onto your computer’s hard disk (see “Copying the Classroom in a Book files” on page 2). You should also have created a working catalog (see “Creating a new catalog” on page 8).

2.
In the Welcome screen, click the Organize button at the left, and then wait while the Elements Organizer opens.

3.
Hold the pointer over the Elements Organizer icon () at the upper left of the Organizer workspace window to see the name of the currently loaded catalog displayed in a tooltip. Note that the catalog name is also displayed in the lower left corner of the Organizer workspace.

4.
If the CIB Catalog that you created in Lesson 1 is not currently loaded, choose File > Catalog. Select the CIB Catalog from the list in the Catalog Manager dialog box, and then click Open.
