Adobe Brings Photoshop Elements 10 and Premiere Elements 10 Editors to Mac App Store

[MacRumors]

Back in July, Adobe entered the Mac App Store for the first time with the release of Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 Editor, a slightly scaled-down version of the company's consumer image editing application. When the company released Photoshop Elements 10 in boxed form in mid-September, we asked Adobe about a Mac App Store release for the new version and were told that it was in the works but under a different timeline given that it is a separate application.

Adobe has now completed work on not only the Mac App Store version of Photoshop Elements 10 Editor but also Premiere Elements 10 Editor, which are now available in the Mac App Store for $79.99 each.

Like the earlier Photoshop Elements release for the Mac App Store, the new releases do not include the Elements Organizer functionality found in their non-Mac App Store counterparts, and do not support case-sensitive HFS+ (HFSX) volumes. Premiere Elements 10 Editor also does not support the SmartSound capabilities found in the full version.

Current users of Photoshop Elements 9 Editor from the Mac App Store should note that the new Version 10 is a separate application and thus not available as a free upgrade.

Eh, who uses Elements Organizer from Elements anyway?

Download of Elements 10 for Mac is $89.99 on Amazon -- surprised that Apple is beating Amazon's price.

I come to a site called MacRumors to hear authoritative news and information about iPhones and other iOS devices along with Android and Window phones, not to hear rumors about Macs and Mac related software. Stop clogging up the front page!

Update: My first down vote!

Why does it seem that half the third party software for OS X doesn't support case sensitive volumes? Has Adobe looked at a calendar lately? Mine says it's 2011, not 1981. This is inexcusable in the 21st century.

 

[coder12]

Hmm...


I think I'll stick with my copy of Elements from the early 2000s for windows and use pixelmator for everything else

 

[lamerica80]

Did they also say when it will be availible on torrent?

Sketchbook express does everything I need.

Possibly because 95% of the desktops and laptops sold have case-preserving filesystems?

Meh, Im a student. I can cet Photoshop extended for 200 bucks...

Is there a specific reason why Adobe is putting this limitation on these two products?

I don't know much about Mac OS history but do about UNIX (I've used since 1980). UNIX file systems were and still are case sensitive. I can only guess that Apple went with case insensitive volumes for backwards compatibility with earlier Mac OS versions? Of course Microsoft DOS and Windows has always been case insensitive.

I don't know that it matters what century we are in.

So unless you have gone out of your way to create a case sensitive volume on your Mac, I can only guess you are trying to access shared Linux volumes which are case sensitive?

teeth whitening filters? seriously? just brush your damn teeth and or whiten in the real world.

 

[trip1ex]

Price should be lower. There are routinely deals for these programs for much cheaper.

Could be Apple's restrictions on Mac App Store apps.

It's great to know schools are dropping the requirement to proofread your work before submitting it.

The word MAC on Macrumors should have given you a clue...


About the article:

The price is quite high for such basic editing. Gimp is better for this and is free.

 

[Stella]

If I can upgrade a previous version of Elements for $79 and get the full package, there's no real point in getting a dumbed own restricted MAS version...

In fact, I'd rather pay the full price instead of going the MAS route.

 

[no_name]

Now it's even easier to ruin your photos with terrible filters!

C'mon Adobe just give me damn ACR on my iPad!

OT: what is a case-sensitive HFS volume under OSX anyway? My filesystems are HFS journaled (not case-sensitive) and they perfectly allow for filenames and directories with upper- and lowercase or mixed names. They show up as such in Finder, as well as on the UNIX shell.

So, how does a case-sensitive HFS+ filesystem differ from a standard HFS+ filesystem? And what is the big deal if a program doesn't support it?

Hmmm... the fact that is this is like only the second pure "Mac" article in the last 20 should have given YOU a clue

I got a chuckle out of it, at least. People's sarcasm detectors must be broken… Unless you were serious, in which case mine is broken.

It is. Or rather it will be. Specifically that as of March of next year all apps sold in the store must be sandboxed. Organizer cannot work in such. Sandboxed Mac apps can only use the open/save dialog that's built into the OS.

You know before anyone else decides to downrank me, would you please read the thread I've linked to?

Because its widely know that Europe consumes the most junk food-oh wait
