OK so cant download Bridge to my old macbook Pro which doesn't surprise me. Its running out of room and probably energy. I have been wanting to move to the big mac for a while now so this is my reason. Which brings me to an upgrade. I don't want a subscription so was going to upgrade from elements 11 to elements 2018, connect my Wacom tablet which has been sitting in a box for over a year now, and get serious. Do you think its worth the upgrade to elements 18?

ok you've sold me on Bridge- sounds like the answer!
I will look on hard drive. Just worried I was doing something really wrong in the processing. Im looking to turn a couple of photos into 'art' for my walls so I will be taking the print sharpening class too!!

ok yes I will definitely take the bridge class. I had not looked at it before though because I use elements and didn't think Bridge was for Elements?
The only external hard drive is the back up i do every now and then. I haven't (knowingly) moved the files somewhere else but I guess anything is possible!
It seems to be mainly on the photos that I have edited with layers etc, not just the basic editing when converting raw. Could it have something to do with the layers processing or the way i save the edited photos? This is why I am taking the layers and mask class!

oh, and I am happy to just learn more about PS / bridge; don't think I need to add Lightroom to my confusion! (I'm well aware of how Damien feels about lightroom ha ha!!)

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I had no idea where to start, now I do. Its like a freaking mine field out there!!

It is mid 2011. 27 inch, with OS X El Capitan. Has 498GB free space....the only reason i use the laptop is that it has Elements on it and its portable. I don't do anything hugely creative at this stage (due to the small screen as well as not knowing how yet) but want to learn more. I also have been given an intuos pen so I am thinking the iMac would be better for all of it. Just won't be able to edit and watch TV at the same time! I was reading other people use the laptop but get a separate screen instead. Is that a compromise, or is it more than just the screen size and quality?
Creative Cloud seems to be $25 a month in Australia, unless I am looking at the wrong thing. (more expensive than i thought but ?worth it?)

Hi Brian,
I have been doing an online course over the past few years with an occasional spattering of photography with Elements (and lots of raw photos), on my MacBook Pro. I have now finished my course and wish to do Damien's courses and ramp up my photography hobby. I need to clean up my pro- get rid of assignments etc- and store my photos properly. (its a disorganised mess). My questions are: Having limited tech knowledge, how do I clean up the macbook? Do I take it to the Apple shop and get them to help and upgrade to El Capitano while we are at it? Or am I better off doing my photoshop stuff on the iMac that my family uses, and get CC or Photoshop (full version). I am a bit overwhelmed with the constantly upgrading technology!!!
thanks
