PET Subscriber video direct downloads

[jonknee]

I saw that plenty of you guys have been trying to download the subscriber videos over at Photoshop Elements Techniques... The whole temp files deal is not the best way to do that and the way I would normally do it is probably a bit beyond explanation. All that said, I talked to the boss and he gave me the go ahead to make it easier for you.

http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/subscriber/video_download.php

This page has a direct link to each and every subscriber video file. You can either right click and choose download the link to disk or just option/alt click (mac/PC) and it will do the same thing. I'm pretty sure IE follows that convention, but I know FireFox does.

You still have to be a subscriber, but for those of you that are, this should save untold hours of frustration.

Update: Here's a bit of an updated instruction set in case you have trouble.


Go here: http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/subscriber/video_download.php

If you see the login form, just put in your details and hit login. When you get send to the next page hit your browser's back button. Like magic you'll see all the download links. If you do not see this list, go back to step 1.

Download the videos in the way you're most familiar. I suggest right clicking and choosing download target to disk (or whatever verbiage your browser uses that sounds similar). There are other ways, such as option/alt clicking on the links. Anyway that works for you also works for me.

If you have trouble playing the videos, download VLC

Thank you and thank your bosses. This is such a wonderful treat for the subscribers. You guys are awesome!

[Wags374]

Thanks Jon!

[Ellen]

Thanks Jon! How very thoughtful of you and how nice on the bosses part.

[bayhli]

You guys are excellent, thank you very much! :)

[Aussie Nan]

Super dooper! thanks so much. It really is an early Christmas around here lately.

[sarch99]

Great move!! Thanks to you and TPTB for making them easily downloaded. I wish I hadn't been in such a hurry. I downloaded them last week using wget. :)

[rkmart]

Thanks for the dowload link :):):)

[Teacher617]

My timing is terrible ... I downloaded all of the subscriber videos this PAST WEEKEND. Sigh ....

Tricia

[Rob1964]

Thank you very much.

[rmartin]

Excellent, thanks!

I must have a different set up, but when I right click, I don't get a download link to disk. I'm using 'save target as' which goes to a download manager.

Wow, there be a wealth of information here

It's different in every browser. But yea, choose whatever sounds the most like it's going to work.

[randy_nacol2002]

Thank you so very much for all you have done.

[LisaE62]

Jon,
Thanks to you and the "powers that be" for making this process easier! I started downloading last weekend, but didn't finish. This will certainly speed things along. I've been so fortunate to be have been a part of this site. I've learned so much in such a short time. Thanks to everyone!

[mkctlc2001]

UGHH:mad: and I just spent $30.00 for quick time pro so I could do a save as.:twisted:

Thanks Jon. I do think it is way cool of you to do that for us. Just wished I had seen thr post b4.

Is there an easy way to save the written tuts or do we need to open each one and copy and save?

You have been so awsome - I hope you don't go away when PET does.:confused:

[vawitt]

Thanks Jon...I just finished grabbing all the vids the old way over the weekend, but this will help for any new ones added to the list.

Kudos to you and the PTB!

[jonknee]

UGHH:mad: and I just spent $30.00 for quick time pro so I could do a save as.:twisted:

Luckily QT Pro is fun for other things. I use it to trim audio files (a lot of mobile phones can play MP3s for ringtones, just chop your favorite tune down with QT Pro and you have a custom ringtone). It can also convert between a lot of file formats. All around pretty handy, so all is not lost.

[Robyn]

.........even more goodies under the Village Christmas tree!!! Thanks Jon.

[ljameso1]

Tx Jon. It was exactly what I was wishing for.

[Diana]

Thanks, Jon, that is so much more convenient. Plus, I can actually download now from my dialup connection by using Save Target As, rather than having to go out to find a WiFi connection.

Is there any chance these video tutorials may at some point, before the Subscriber site closes, be put together in a set for sale? I recently started up a PSE Users Group in our community and have over 20 members, some of which are interested in buying these videos (since they are unable to join PET).

Diana

[efarnstrom]

I just didn't have the energy to do the temp file thing before now. Now I can be happy doing the downloading. Thanks a bunch.

EDIT: Okay, when I get to this page, what do I do next? Right clicking on "View Video" and 'save target as' (IE) as someone above suggested, just saves a video player, over and over. I don't get it??!!

[bayhli]

I'm not getting it either. I have IE and my results are the same as Es's above (saves the Quicktime icon as an htm document).

I also tried opening and waiting forever for the video to load and that didn't work either as right clicking doesn't give you the save options.

What are we missing in this procedure or will it only work with Firefox?

[Robyn]

Hi Pat,

I have IE and I didn't have any trouble at all, so I'm not quite sure what is happening with you.

[Robyn]

.......just a thought........are you actually on the direct download page?

[Robyn]

..........I found that with the link that Jon has given us I used that and entered my subscriber password. I then closed that page and the NEXT time I used Jon's link it took me straight to the direct download page. The first time it didn't take me there. So it's not the usual 'view video' page you want it's the direct download page.

[bayhli]

OMIG - No, I wasn't even on the right page! :rolleyes: :D

Thanks so much Robyn, maybe it's bed-time for me. Wow, is this going to be an easy task.

[Robyn]

It's very easy now isn't it! What a shame we didn't have it in past years. It was always such a pain to save it off the temporary internet files.

[bayhli]

Sure would have been. I didn't save very many over the years taking for granted they would always be here. Lesson learned.

Nice to "see" you. :) So happy for your DDD success. I only scrapbook with my granddaughter in the summer but had to have many of your kits they are just so beautifully done. All of you there are very talented and its the high quality of your work that is so attractive.

Thank you Jon this is going to make life much easier
We are really getting spoilt :)
Storm

[ladybug]

jon thank you for the direct download page. Although i already downloaded most i still appreciate the kindness and effort.

[Bayla]

At first I couldn't get it to work, but then, like Robyn, I realised that I had to sign into the subscriber area, then close down the page and then the second time I clicked on Jon's link it worked!!

Thanks you soooo much! I've only got another 40 or so to save, but this will definitely save time!!

Bayla

[Inspeqtor]

Jon,

This is GREAT! Thank you!!!!! I think I have them all already, but I want to try and compare lists. That may be somewhat of a challenge as I probably named some of them differently from the current list.
I feel a headache coming on already!! :eek: :eek:

[Inspeqtor]

Jon,

I have another question for you... maybe you have an answer, maybe you do not... The written tutorials I have saved to my hard drive. I found if I disconnect my modem, then double click on the tuts, they want to connect back up to the PET website. Is there a way to change this?

I did find that if I first open Microsoft Word, that I can open them with Word, so that may be the only solution.

[lisabee]

Thanks Jon, :)
I never know what treat is in store when I get on line each morning these days.
I did get to the regular page a couple of times on the link, but then got to the direct download page,

many thanks,
Lisa

[Wendy]

Jon ..

Nice addition ... its going to savve people lots of time and effort :)

[Jancy]

Thanks Jon, Of course I had already did them the long way but this will be great when the new ones come out.

It's probably how you saved them--if you just save the HTML page it will want to try and load the images (which still reside on the website). Not a huge deal if they don't load, but it will definitely try. You can try saving as a "Web Archive" which will downloaded all the images as well (though it will be a bigger download).

Or for other Mac users, my best "killer tip" would be to print the page to PDF. You get the images, just one file and a nice small file size to boot.

[jonknee]

Thanks Jon, Of course I had already did them the long way but this will be great when the new ones come out.

Sometime soon I can add a filter to sort by posting date which would let you guys find any new ones fairly easily. Right now it's alphabetical which is probably easiest to compare against whatever you already have.

[mkctlc2001]

Jon,

Since you are the miricle worker was wondering before I devoted my Saturday to saving all the written tutorials if you and/or the high powers that be was looking into an easier way for us to save them like you did for the videos? I'm willing to wait if there is a slight possiblity.

Thanks for checking,
Marilyn

Since they are HTML on the server side (not PDFs), there isn't really an easier way that visiting the page and hitting save. If you're on a Mac, print to PDF is probably a little easier, but even then you're still visiting all the pages.

[Wendy]

Hi Jon ...

How do I do Print to PDF ... and which filebrowser do I use (I use a selction of different ones)

Wendy :)

[christellf]

Jon
Thank you so much for doing this. I was able to get to the direct download page and download some. But my problem is what was happening to some others before. Most of the older videos I still don't have any sound on them. Any suggestions on what to do???
Thanks again,
Christell

[dales]

These are so helpful for us that are relatively new to this program. So very much appreciated.

[kathydel]

Jon, what a great thing to do for us. I've been saving 1-2 a day as I have time, this will make it easier. You are very thoughtful. This will help us newbies to PSE alot. I've already picked up a few tricks from a couple videos that have helped me out.

Now I have to finish copying and pasting all the written tutorials too.:rolleyes: It's really a shame that site has to go. It's loaded with great info. When I found the website I was so excited to find so many helpful tools to help me learn....

This is much appreciated.. Can I give you a hug??? :)

[jonknee]

Hi Jon ...

Couldn't be easier. You can do this with any document you can print from any application (I do it most often to save receipts). Just hit print and look for the PDF button. You can buy some software to accomplish this somewhat on Windows, but I have had trouble getting that working. It has been a part of OS X since 10.0.

Download VLC (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/), it's a really good open source media player that can open and play almost anything. It's cross platform too, so you should definitely be able to get it running.

[christellf]

Jon, Thanks for replying. Here is the link to that site. I have Vista: which one do I download?
Thanks

Anyone of the links in the top section will work (they are all the same file, just on different servers). Just choose a location nearby and it should be fast.

You spoke the truth in your signature. This is your job but you must be having a blast helping all of us out.
Thanks so much I downloaded it & it works great. The sound is working with this player. I am so happy.
Thanks

[Wendy]

Jon ...

Oh that works so well ... all these years of using a Mac and I never found that option :o

Thank you :)

[Kathy]

OH MY! This is absolutely wonderful Jon and very thoughtful on your (and the bosses) part. I was not looking forward to spending many hours of downloading.

THANK YOU !!!!! :D

Kathy

[RonH]

Thanks a bunch Jon that is to great a resource to lose. Thank the boss for us all.:D

[swalkr]

Having the same problem a lot of early posts were upset about. Can't open the link that was in your first post here, Jon. I'll keep trying. Maybe the site is just really busy.

[Randy54]

I have right clicked, alt-clicked and I cannot open this page. I can save the file to my desktop but it will not open in quickTime, Internet Explorer or Firefox. I would really like to download these videos and put them on a DVD. They have been a great help to me and will be missed! Please guide me with some ideas.
THANKS! Randy

Can you copy and paste one of the links you are trying to download here? Just want to make sure we're both on the same page...

[Bayla]

Randy,

Before you do anything else, sign in to the Subscriber area. Only then click on Jon's link.

Making great progress. Am now able to save instructional to my computer. B U T when I try and download to a disc on Nero I am not sucessful Have tried many combinations but no sucess. Any suggestions.

[CFinley]

Thank you. I have now downloaded the videos. I was not real sure how to go about doing this but you saved my day!

[Randy54]

I am signed in to the Subscriber area when I right click on Jon's link and it puts me back to the subscribers area not signed in. So i signed in again and went to the forums page and clicked on the link again. It repeated the action. I alt-clicked on the link and it downloaded the file on my desktop but when I tried to open it I got this Message;
(error2048:couldn't open the file video_downloadphp because it is not a file that quicktime understands.) I hope this can explain what I am getting. It's probably something very simple I am missing. Looking forward to any suggestions. You are a great group of people!

It sounds like you might have a cookie issue. Can you access other subscriber pages (example page (http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/subscriber/printextras.php))? I used the main subscriber template to construct the download page, so it should be treated no differently as far as access is concerned.

You need to do the option clicking on the links that are displayed on the download page, not the download page itself. When you are able to get it to load you'll see that the page I created is a big list of the videos--each one of the names links to a video file.

http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/subscriber/video_download.php

[jonknee]

Okay, this is really going to work! I just wish the intricate steps would be outlined in the first place, then I wouldn't think I was so DUMB:eek:

I didn't give many details because I didn't think it was intricate--it's a standard subscriber page. There are hundreds of pages like it, so I figured accessing it would not be the tricky part. But since you're not coming from an internal link it is a bit different than the normal use pattern. Do not fear... it's easy as 1,2,3.

Here's a revised version:


Go here: http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/subscriber/video_download.php

If you see the login form, just put in your details and hit login. When you get send to the next page hit your browser's back button. Like magic you'll see all the download links. If you do not see this list, go back to step 1.

I got it by using Robyns explanation.

I really appreciate your help in setting this up for us! I am also jazzed by all the renewed excitement over this forum. :D

[Randy54]

THANKS JON! I got the download page. I enabled my 3rd party cookies in my Security Suite for Photoshopelementsuser and Bingo everything is working GREAT! I am saving the video's using all files instead of quicktime and this way I can play them with my Nero Showtime Software. Thank you for your patience.

I'm on a PC and using a free version of Cute PDF to save the tutorials. It works fine with no problems.

Thanks for making the videos available. I do refer to them frequently and have downloaded several of them using the described method in this thread. My next concern is how do I save to cd/dvd? I am concerned about these vids going away and also same some significant hard drive space. Tried a couple of things that didn't work.
Thanks

I have just started downloading the video clips -- and it is going very, very slowly. I am on a DSL connection that normally downloads at 90-100 KB/s. When I download one of the videos, it drops, sometimes as low as 10 KB/s. Is there some other way to get the clips?

There is not another way, but that is abnormally slow. I just tried and they were coming down at around 400 KB/s. If you know how, can you PM me a traceroute from your computer to photoshopelementsuser.com?

[meribee]

I have downloaded many of the videos by clicking the "save as quick time movie" Are they safe this way? I also copied them afterwards to a disk? Thanks for all your information. Makes the move painless.

That's what I would do to (well technically I have FTP access so I would just drag the whole folder at once, but that definitely is a unique case :P), but as far as I know it's a feature of QuickTime Pro so not everyone has access to that method.

[wildrose]

When I try to play the videos from the subscriber page, I get sound but only a green screen. When I download from your download page (thanks for that), I get the picture but no sound. Strange. Any suggestions.

Thanks in advance.

[Inspeqtor]

Hi WildRose,

You need to download and install the VLC (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/) player that Jon mentioned in an earlier posting.
Now you will hear and see the videos :)

[jonknee]

When I try to play the videos from the subscriber page, I get sound but only a green screen. When I download from your download page (thanks for that), I get the picture but no sound. Strange. Any suggestions.

Thanks in advance.

Technically they are all the same files (it pulls from the same database even), so there is no playback difference based on where you downloaded them. But there is a difference in codecs between the older videos and the newer videos.

Since it's an alphabetical list you can't easily tell which ones are new and which ones are old, but as Inspeqtor said VLC should be able to play all of them. In the latest version of QuickTime Apple removed the codec that the old videos were using, so there is no workaround besides another media player.

[meribee]

I'm on a mac and have been downloading the videos with the button " save to quick time movies" . I don't have quick time pro ..just an upgrade to quick time 7 (free). It seems to work .

Regardless, this page is still quite a bit faster since you can queue them up and download multiple files at once.

Hi, I thought that we would be carried as subscribers until the end ot PET. My subcription ended 12/03/07 and because PET was ending, I was unable to renew. Today I tried to log into PET to download more of the Video Tutorials and I was informed that I could not enter until I renewed....Help...I thought I had more time. I also tried the link in this thread and it lead me into the same loop of telling me to renew my subscription.

I am so grateful for all the wonderful information I have found on this site. Thanks to you and everyone at PET for all your efforts.

[jonknee]

Just an FYI, but the video list is now sorted by ID DESC which means the newest videos are on top. So it should be pretty easy to check if you need to download any new ones.

[barbwatkins]

Please can you tell me the skinny on if this site is closing down and refusing any new subscriptions? I was so excited to find this site and also the videos that I nearly choked, now I have read in several posts and scrapbooking forems that this site is going out?? So before I try to sign up, can you tell me the lowdown??
Thanks so much for your reply

Barb,

In a nutshell, the Photoshopelementsuser website will be closing down sometime in the first quarter of 2008 as a consequence of which they are no longer accepting new subscriptions.:(

But THIS forum will still be here and there is a wealth of information to be gleaned from it's members, so we hope you'll stick around!:)

As far as I can see it saves the pages as .mht files which can be viewed offline. I have saved them all to my EHD and then to CD/DVD as backup.

I did a test by unplugging my modem, then double clicking on one of the tutorials and found that the *.mht files was trying to connect to the website. I also found if I open up Microsoft Word, that I can open any of the tutorials with Word.

[Bayla]

I also switched off the internet, totally unplugged the modem and tried opening up a saved .mht file tutorial - it brought up the page with no problem at all.

Storm

[Wendy]

Hi Storm ..

Mine seems to be OK ... but I am using a Mac so mine may be different ??

Let see if anyone else has the same problem.

As far as the situation when PET closes ... I certainly will still be here moderating and I am sure that the others will be too :)

Wendy

[Bayla]

Storm,

Are you trying to download from Jon's list as per the first post in this thread? I just tried it and had no problems.

Bayla

[Storm1]

Thanks for replying Bayla. Yes as per Jon's list direct download. How do you d/l rt click save target as or what ?
I got all the others no problem.
Sorry Wendy did not realize you were a Mod ,who are the others ?
Storm

[Storm1]

Sorry Bayla I do not know what was happening. Now I have got the proper list, before I was taken to the Subscribers section all the time.
No need to think I am nuts I know I am.:)

Storm,

You are not alone there! I have been nuts my whole life!! :eek:

[Wendy]

Hi Storm ..

I suspect the problem was that you were not logged into the subscriber area before you clicked on Jon's link ... that fooled me a couple of times :)

As far as Moderators go .. I know of Tami, myself, Nancy & Mike. There maybe others too :)

Wendy

[eweidman]

Hi Bayla, I have SnagIt and would like to download written Tuts to an External Hard Driive (Iomega). What steps did you use. TIA, Ed Weidman:)

[Inspeqtor]

Just an FYI, but the video list is now sorted by ID DESC which means the newest videos are on top. So it should be pretty easy to check if you need to download any new ones.

Jon,

I just checked your list a bit. It appears the oldest videos now start on January 2006. There were a lot more videos before that. Is this something you can fix to show the entire list? I personally do not need it as I already have all the videos, but I was thinking perhaps someone else may not have them all. I did not go thru the entire list, just a small amount. Perhaps they are all there but not fully by date?

[Bayla]

Ed,

I have sent you a PM.

Bayla

[Bayla]

Charles,

I just checked and the older videos are on the list, just not at the end. I'm not sure how they are ordered! If you go to the PET website you'll see that some of the oldest ones from 2003 are 'Organiser', 'Photo Filter', Cookie Cutter', 'Picture Package' - these are all on Jon's list but about half way down!!:confused:

All I can say for sure is that the newest ones are at the top!

Bayla

[Inspeqtor]

Thanks for checking it out for me Bayla!

[jonknee]

Bayla

They are sorted in descending order, but for the date they were added to the database not the date the video is recorded. That data wasn't stored, so I can't sort it by author date. It's likely that they implemented the database halfway through and that's why some of the older videos come up in the middle.

The newer videos will definitely be on top though. And that's what I was going for originally (so when new content gets added it's easy to notice).

[Bayla]

Any VLC users out there could go to THIS THREAD (http://www.elementsvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?p=345173#post345173) and help out Abby who is stuck?

Bayla

[annebury]

Jon - you may have already answered this, and if so I apologize. Will you be posting easy download links for Premier Video tutorials? You've been so helpful with the Elements ones. I've downloaded most of them now.

[photobubby]

I just found out about downloading the videos. Am I still a subscriber if my subscription expired to the magazine, and it never let me renew. It won't take my user name and password. Is there any way I can still download the videos? When is the last day to download?

[Bayla]

Photobubby,

I don't know when your subscription expired, but THIS POST (http://www.elementsvillage.com/forums/showpost.php?p=343026&postcount=1) might be of use to you if it was recently.

Bayla

[photobubby]

Thanks for your link, but I still don't know where that puts me. I don't remember when I ended my subscription,but it was around then- Oct. All I know is I can't access the videos. How do I figure out what I need to do? Thanks in advance.

[Bayla]

Photobubby,

I would try contacting customer service (866.808.2793) - nothing ventured nothing gained!

Bayla

[Bayla]

Photobubby,

Take a look at THIS THREAD (http://www.elementsvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32804).

It seems that subscriptions are being accepted again!!:D

Bayla

[photobubby]

Amazing! But I wouldn't want to subscribe until I know for sure that it is true.

[NMarti]

Photobubby - Tami has said an announcement is coming after Christmas so stay tuned!

[Bayla]

Jon,

There are a few more videos in the Scrapbooking section at the end of the written tutorials. Would it be possible to add them to the direct download list or is that too complicated?

Bayla

[jjvera00]

I am sooooo confused. I have been on this forum most of the afternoon (really slow day at work since most people are still on X-Mas vacation). And I have been reading about PET being cancelled and the website being taken down. But when curiousity got the best of me, I went to see if I could still re-subscribe.

I didn't for fear of not really doing it. Now I see others have noticed that the subscription option has been reactivated and there is suppose to be an annoucment about PET after Christmas.

So has anyone heard anything or re-subscribed to PET???

Johnny:confused::confused::confused:

[Bayla]

Johnny,

Have you seen THIS THREAD (http://www.elementsvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32804)?

I'm not surprised you're confused! We're still not sure what is going on, and we're all being remarkably patient and waiting for more news.......

In the meantime, as you can see from that thread and others, people are subscribing to the PET newsletter....but you may want to wait until the New Year when hopefully we'll find out exactly what is happening.

Bayla

[jonknee]

Jon,

Bayla

I could add them by hand, but since they are not in a database it isn't possible to automate the process like the main videos are.

[Hillegas2]

Thanks for making these videos available to download. It'll help to become more familiar with 5.0!

[jhariton]

Is it possible that the tutorials website ended today? I have been copyinying them but today can't get to the site.I will be so sad if the link that Jon has suggested is no longer in action...please advise:(:(

[Inspeqtor]

I just tried and I also could not get in. From what I have been reading, NO the website is not being discontinued. Tami has said they are now again taking subscriptions. I am guessing the server is having problems, and later today or tomorrow it should be back up and running again. :)

[jhariton]

thanks for checking so fast...I'll keep my fingers crossed that it will be up and running soon...

[Inspeqtor]

jhariton,

I just now checked and the server is back up and running :):D

[scurtis623]

I saw that plenty of you guys have been trying to download the subscriber videos over at Photoshop Elements Techniques... The whole temp files deal is not the best way to do that and the way I would normally do it is probably a bit beyond explanation. All that said, I talked to the boss and he gave me the go ahead to make it easier for you.

http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/subscriber/video_download.php

This page has a direct link to each and every subscriber video file. You can either right click and choose download the link to disk or just option/alt click (mac/PC) and it will do the same thing. I'm pretty sure IE follows that convention, but I know FireFox does.

You still have to be a subscriber, but for those of you that are, this should save untold hours of frustration.

Update: Here's a bit of an updated instruction set in case you have trouble.


Go here: http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/subscriber/video_download.php

If you see the login form, just put in your details and hit login. When you get send to the next page hit your browser's back button. Like magic you'll see all the download links. If you do not see this list, go back to step 1.

Download the videos in the way you're most familiar. I suggest right clicking and choosing download target to disk (or whatever verbiage your browser uses that sounds similar). There are other ways, such as option/alt clicking on the links. Anyway that works for you also works for me.

If you have trouble playing the videos, download VLC

Thank you for this info. Does it also work for Vista?
Shirley

[ionut20]

thanx for the info

[n-d40]

thanks a bunch and your boss


I think that will start my subscription earlier than originally planned


Razz
:rolleyes:

[JulieM]

reported as spam...

[Geoff]

Thanks Jon and Boss,

It's great to have all these videos available offline.
As an extra tip, if you use Firefox, install an addon called DownThemAll.

To get Firefox

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/ ( English USA)

To get Down them all

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/201

Navigate to Jon's All Downloads page, and then run Downthemall. It'll download all the videos into one folder all at once, with one click.
regards
Geoff

[vawitt]

WOW...wish I'd had this before I snagged them back in the winter...

[Abby]

That's a great tip, Geoff. Now I'm glad I procrastinated until now to download the videos.

I just tried it and it tries to download 4 at a time. When I came back to the computer there was a "Timed out" message in the "Est. Time" column by the first 4 files and it was working on downloading the next 4 files. Not sure what the problem was but I'm downloading them individually now and it's still easier that doing it the old way.

[mrshappy]

I really love pet. I have 3loving pets that i have and stepping in my life.

Name of Pet
Dog-Guida, Clowy, amaru

You would think that the age I am, I would have learned by now. But nope. Don't look at the forums, don't read them, just go and ugrade to QuickTime Pro, pay the money....................:D I may learn one day...................but don't hold your breath haha

Thanks for this information, so much easier to do :)

[Deb]

You are truly an "all around nice guy" for providing this for us. I just got a new pc with Vista and couldn't even find the video in Temp files like I used to in XP and was wondering "what now?". I love having these available.

Deb

[Bayla]

I've suddenly run into a problem with downloading. I right-click on the link but the option to 'save target as' is now greyed out.:confused::confused: I've never had this problem before. Anyone out there know what's happening?

Bayla,

I am truly sorry you are having this problem. I just tried the download link, and it works fine for me. I wish I could tell you what to do to fix your problem, but alas I have no clue. ...sigh... :(

[Bayla]

Charles,

Thanks for your sympathy.:)

I've just spent nearly two hours googling and trying different things before I sorted it out. Apparently having Content Advisor enabled in IE was the cause. Only problem was that I couldn't find a way to disable it as the disable button was also greyed out!!:mad: Finally I realised that I was trying to change it from my BT Yahoo browser rather than IE. All is working now.:)

Bayla

[ladybug]

yeah Bayla i am glad you sorted it out, this can drive one nuts.

[Inspeqtor]

Bayla,

I too am very happy you were able to sort it out! Way to go girl! :D

[jgrace]

It seens that $59 for six issues is a little pricey. What is included? New to photoshop and alot of people say belong, but on a fixed income I have to want what money goes to. Can you explain what you get for your money.

Thanks Jon

[riversidema]

I understand about the $$$. The (lengthy) list of video tuts made it worth it for me. Lots of downloads, extras, and Wendy's lists of tutorials also; yet again, it was the videos dating back for years that really aided me. There probably is more that I haven't discovered yet too.

[ljameso1]

There are hundreds of tutorials and videos archived there. Great value for the money. All the old mags and articles are archived there as well.

[jjvera00]

It is a little pricey, but well worth it. And when you start comparing, to other Photo Magazines it is worth the price and considerable cheaper. Some of my favorite magazines are published in UK, so it is very pricey when doing a subscription overseas.

[Jeff F]

Jon,

This is WONDERFUL! I'm a slow learner when it comes to Photoshop and having these on my computer to replay whenever I want is great!

Between these video tutorials and the wonderful Village discussions the subscription cost is well worth it.

Thank you!

Jeff

[Jeff F]

Jon,

I have read this entire thread and now I am a bit confused about what is/may be happening.

I am a new subscriber (just last week). What does all this talk about things "going away" mean to me? Have I subscribed to something that is about to disappear? Is there an old subscriber/new subscriber issue about accessing certain files?

I'm confused (again).

Jeff

[jjvera00]

Jeff

When the direct download page was made, at the time the entire PET site was going to be shutdown. But thanfully, the site and the newsletter was saved! So there is no need to worry.

[Jeff F]

Wow..

Why was it going to be shut down? Was there any indication that people would get a refund if they shut it down? A bit unnerving to know that I just signed up and the site may not be stable for the next year while I'm getting my money's worth. Its not cheap and I wouldn't have subscribed to just the newsletter without the site being there.

Jeff

[ljameso1]

The previous owner was going to shut down, but along came buyers who have kept it going strong and are putting upgrades into it. I have no doubt Rick can further elucidate. Bottom line: not going away.

[jjvera00]

Jeff

You got to keep in mind that that all this happened over a year ago. Since then, Rick and his staff have done a great and wonderful job keeping the website and magazine up and running. So don't worry. They will keep the videos coming and the magazine going.

[Wendy]

Jeff ...

This all happened a long time ago so there really is no need to worry ... its here to stay, Rick and his staff are doing a great job :)

Wendy

[Jeff F]

Thanks, its a great resource and I'm thrilled its going strong. I'll be around here (and there) for a long time if what I have seen so far is any indication of where they are going.

Also, I have been involved in a lot of newsgroups and forums for my other hobby and I must say I am REALLY impressed by this forum. A lot of incredibly knowledgable folks and a community and helful spirit I haven't seen very many other places. Its a pleasure to be here.

Jeff

[Wendy]

Hi Jeff ...

When the site first open there were only a few of us here and we started saying welcome when new people joined ... before long the membership grew and everyone was welcoming new people. I think that thing like that make the forum a friendly place to visit and people are not scared to ask questions :)

We have had the occasional person who has been unfriendly to others ... but thankfully it doesn't happen too often :)

Wendy

[sandbur]

So good to find answers to the 'unanswerable'. Thanks

Sandy

[Wendy]

Hi Sandy ...

.. and welcome to the Village :)

Wendy

[Sandy D]

Sorry to be such a dunce but I don't get the "save target" option enabled in IE 6 and no amount of fiddling with it's options or my firewall enables it. No help from their help... I'm running as an administrator so I'm not sure what is restricting it.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks !
Sdunn

[Bayla]

In IE6 (and 7) I have to go to Internet Options>Content and then make sure Content Advisor is disabled, otherwise Save Target as is greyed out.

Hope this helps,

Bayla

[Sandy D]

Thank you Bayla - that was exactly what I needed. Now I can download the videos easily.

Sdunn

[Bayla]

Sandy,

I had the same problem a while back.....solved it in post #160 above! Glad I was able to help.:)

When I click on the direct downloads link, the second video is 'Adjustment Layers in Elements 8'. But I don't see this video in the Subscribers area when I log on to the photoshopelementsuser website.:confused::confused::confused:

Bayla

[Inspeqtor]

Bayla,

I did not see the 2nd video yesterday when I downloaded "Add Fun Color to Black & White Images" but you are correct... it is there in the direct download page, but it is not there in the main subscriber page. This is a mystery Rick will need to look into! :rolleyes:

I tried twice to download the latest video re: dark circles, neither downloaded properly. I've downloaded other videos in the past so the problem seems to be with that specific video. Is anyone else having this problem or am I just lucky? :confused:

I couldn't get the video to open from the website, but was able to download it from the direct dl list in the normal way (right click and Save target as...) and watch it once it was on my computer.

I've tried 4 different times to download the video using the same procedure you use. I even restarted my computer. I can tell right off the bat that it's not a good download because it's too fast loading. When I try to open it I get the following msg..."not a file that Quick Time understands". I checked the other videos and they run ok so QuickTime isn't corrupted.
I'm at a loss, looks like I won't be seeing that video. I just hope this isn't going to be a problem with future videos.
Thanks for responding Bayla.

What exactly is happening when you are trying to download?

I was able to see it ok. However, it was different from previous times I have viewed videos. Normally, when I click to see the video, it will start to play and load at the same time. This time it downloaded first then it played. I had to wait a few minutes for that.

Also, what browser are you using? I am using IE8. Have you tried a different browser?

I downloaded and installed a newer version of QuickTime and got the video to download and open ok. Some things just defy logic I guess. Thanks for your interest.
